καὶ τῷ Σαλωμὲν δώδεκα καθεσταμένοι ἐπὶ πάντα Ἰσραήλ, χορηγεῖν τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ τᾦ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ· μῆνα ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἐγίνετο ἐπὶ τὸν ἕνα χορηγεῖν.
Solomon had twelve governors over all Israel to provide food for the king and his household. Each one would arrange provisions for one month of the year,
καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν· Βαιὼρ ἐν ὄρει Ἐφράιμ, εἷς·
and these were their names: Ben-hur in the hill country of Ephraim;

The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore, and they were eating and drinking and rejoicing.
καὶ τὰς κριθὰς καὶ τὸ ἄχυρον τοῖς ἵπποις καὶ τοῖς ἅρμασιν ᾖρον εἰς τὸν τόπον οὖ ἄν ᾖ ὁ βασιλεύς, ἔκαστος κατὰ τὴν σύνταξιν αὐτοῦ.
And Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. These kingdoms offered tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
καὶ ταπυτα τὰ δέοντα τῷ Σαλωμὼν ἐν ἐν ἠμέρᾳ μιᾷ· τριάκοντα κόροι σεμιδάλεως καὶ ἑξήκοντα κόροι ἀλεύρου κεκοπανισμένου,
Solomon’s provisions for a single day were thirty cors of fine flour (note: 30 cors is approximately 187 bushels or 6,600 liters (probably about 5.5 tons or 5 metric tons of flour).), sixty cors of meal (note: 60 cors is approximately 375 bushels or 13,200 liters (probably about 11 tons or 10 metric tons of meal).),
καὶ δέκα μόσχοι έκλεκτοὶ καὶ εἴκοσι βόες νομάδες καὶ ἑκατὸν πρόβατα, ἐκτὸς ἐλάφων καὶ δορκόδων δορκάδων καὶ ὀρνίθων ἐκλεκτῶν, σιτευτά.
ten fat oxen, twenty range oxen, and a hundred sheep, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened poultry.
ὅτι ἦν ἄρχων πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ, καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ εἰρήνη ἐκ πάντων τῶν μερῶν κυκλόξεν.
For Solomon had dominion over everything west of the Euphrates (note: Or beyond the River)—over all the kingdoms from Tiphsah to Gaza—and he had peace on all sides.
καὶ ἔδωκεν Κύριος φρόνησιν τῷ Σαλωμὼν καὶ σοφίαν πολλὴν σφόδρα καὶ χύμα καρδίας ὡς ἡ ἄμμος ἠ παρὰ τὴν θάλασσαν.
Throughout the days of Solomon, Judah and Israel dwelt securely from Dan to Beersheba, each man under his own vine and his own fig tree.
καὶ ἐπληθύνθη Σαλωμὼν σφόδρα ὑπέρ τὴν φρόησιν πάντων ἀρχαίων ἀνθρώπων καὶ ὑπὲρ πάντας φρονίμους Αἰγύπτου.
Solomon had 4,000 stalls for his chariot horses (note: Or horsemen or charioteers) and 12,000 horses.
καὶ ἐσοφίσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοῦς ἀνθρώπους, καὶ ἐεσοξίσατο ὑπὲρ Γαιξὰν τὸν Ζαρείτην καὶ τὸν Αἰνὰν καὶ τὸν Χαλκὰδ καὶ Δαραλά, υἱὸς Μάλ.
Each month the governors in turn provided food for King Solomon and all who came to his table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking.
καὶ ἐλάλησεν Σαλωμὼν τρισχιλίας παραβολάς, καὶ ἦσαν ῲδαὶ αὐτοῦ πεντακισχίλιαι.
Each one also brought to the required place their quotas of barley and straw for the chariot horses and other horses.
καὶ ἐλάλησεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ξύλων ἀπὸ τὴς κ΄δρου τῆς ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ καὶ ἔως τῆς ὑσσώπου τῆς ἐκπορευομένηνης διὰ τοῦ τοίχου, καὶ ἐλάλησεν περὶ τῶν κτηνῶν καὶ περὶ τῶν πετεινῶν καὶ περὶ τῶν ἐρπετῶν καὶ περὶ τῶν ἰχθύων.
And God gave Solomon wisdom, exceedingly deep insight, and understanding beyond measure, like the sand on the seashore.
καὶ παρεγίνοντο πάντες οἱ λαοὶ ἀκοῦσαι τῆς σοφίας Σαλωμών, καὶ παρὰ πάντων τῶν βασιλέων τῆς γῆς ὅσοι ἤκουον τῆς σοφίας αὐτοῦ.
Solomon’s wisdom was greater than that of all the men of the East, greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.
Καὶ ἔλαβεν Σαλωμὼν τὴν θυγατέρα φαραὼ ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα, καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὴν εἰς τὴν πόλιν Δαυεὶδ ἕως συντελέσαι αὐτὸν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου καὶ τὸν οἶκον ἑαυτοῦ καὶ τὸ τειχος Ἰερουσαλήμ.
He was wiser than all men—wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and wiser than Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread throughout the surrounding nations.
ὅτε ἀνεβη φαραὼ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου, καὶ προκατελάβετο τὴν Γάζερ καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὸν Χανανείτην τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Μεργάβ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὰς φαραὼ ἀποστολὰς θυγατρὶ αὐτοῦ γυναικὶ Σαλωμών·
Solomon composed three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered a thousand and five.
καὶ Σαλωμὼν ᾠκοδόμησεν τὴν Γάζερ.
He spoke of trees, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop growing in the wall, and he taught about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish.
