| 20 | Juda a Izrael byli tak početní jako písek u moře. Měli co jíst a pít a radovali se. | Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry. |
| 21 | And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the river unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt: they brought presents, and served Solomon all the days of his life. | |
| 22 | And Solomon's provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal, | |
| 23 | Ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and an hundred sheep, beside harts, and roebucks, and fallowdeer, and fatted fowl. | |
| 24 | For he had dominion over all the region on this side the river, from Tiphsah even to Azzah, over all the kings on this side the river: and he had peace on all sides round about him. | |
| 25 | And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, all the days of Solomon. | |
| 26 | And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. | |
| 27 | And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing. | |
| 28 | Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where the officers were, every man according to his charge. | |
| 29 | And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore. | |
| 30 | And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt. | |
| 31 | For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about. | |
| 32 | And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five. | |
| 33 | And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes. | |
| 34 | And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom. |
