4 Na ko Kingi Horomona te kingi o Iharaira katoa.
2 A ko ana rangatira enei; ko Ataria tama a Haroko te tohunga;
3 Ko Erihorepe raua ko Ahia nga kaituhituhi, he tama na Hiha; ko Iehohapata tama a Ahiruru te kaiwhakamahara;
4 Ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara te rangatira ope; ko Haroko raua ko Apiatara nga tohunga;
5 Ko Ataria tama a Natana te rangatira o nga kaitohutohu; ko Tapuru tama a Natana te tohunga, te takahoa o te kingi;
6 Ko Ahihara te rangatira o te whare; ko Aronirama tama a Apara to nga takoha.
7 Na kotahi tekau ma rua nga kaitohutohu a Horomona mo Iharaira katoa, hei mea kai ma te kingi ratou ko tona whare: kotahi ano te marama mea kai o tetahi, o tetahi, i te tau.
8 Na ko o ratou ingoa enei: ko Penehuru te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima:
9 Ko Penerekara i Makaha, i Haarapimi, i Petehemehe, i Erono Petehanana:
10 Ko Penehehere i Arupoto; i a ia Hokoho me te whenua katoa o Hewhere:
11 Ko Pene Apinarapa i te taupae katoa o Roro; i a ia a Tapata tamahine a Horomona hei wahine mana:
12 Ko Paana tama a Ahiruru i Taanaka, i Mekiro, i Peteheana katoa, tera i Taretana i raro i Ietereere, o Peteheana atu a tae noa ki Aperemehora, ki tua atu o Iokomeama:
13 Ko Penekepere i Ramoto Kireara: i a ia nga pa o Haira tama a Manahi i Kireara; i a ia nga wahi i Arakopa i Pahana, e ono tekau nga pa nunui, taiepa rawa, tutaki rawa ki te parahi:
14 Ko Mahanaima i a Ahinarapa tama a Iro:
15 I Napatari a Ahimaata; i tangohia ano hoki e ia a Pahemata tamahine a Horomona hei wahine mana:
16 I Ahera, i Aroto a Paana tama a Huhai:
17 I Ihakara a Iehohapata tama a Parua:
18 Ko Himei tama a Eraha i Pineamine:
19 Ko Kepere tama a Uri i te whenua o Kireara, i te whenua o Hihona kingi o nga Amori raua ko Oka kingi o Pahana; ko ia anake hoki te kaitohutohu o te whenua.
20 Na tini iho a Hura raua ko Iharaira, me te onepu i te taha o te moana te tini, kai ana ratou, inu ana, hari ana.
21 Na ko Horomona te kingi o nga kingitanga katoa, o te awa a tae noa ki te whenua o nga Pirihitini, ki te rohe ra ano o Ihipa: i mau hakari mai ano ratou, a mahi ana i nga mahi a Horomona i nga ra katoa i ora ai ia.
22 Na, ko te kai a Horomona o te ra kotahi, e toru tekau mehua paraoa pai, e ono tekau mehua paraoa ke;
23 Kotahi tekau nga kau, he mea momona, e rua tekau nga kau o nga haerenga kau, kotahi rau nga hipi, apititia iho ki nga hata, ki nga kakera, ki nga ropaka, ki nga manu whangai.
24 Ko ia hoki te kingi i runga i te takiwa i tenei taha katoa o te awa, o Tipiha, tae noa ki Kaha, i runga ano i nga kingi katoa o tenei taha o te awa: a he rongo mau i ona taha katoa.
25 A noho hu noa iho a Hura raua ko Iharaira, tera, tera, i raro i tana waina, i tana piki, no Rana mai ano a Peerehepa atu ana, i nga ra katoa o Horomona.
26 Na e wha tekau mano nga turanga a Horomona mo nga hoiho o ona hariata, kotahi tekau ma rua mano nga kaieke hoiho.
27 A na aua kaitohutohu i mea he kai ma Kingi Horomona, ma te hunga katoa e haere ana ki te tepu a Kingi Horomona, tenei tangata i tona marama, tenei tangata i tona marama: kahore he mea i kore i a ratou.
28 I kawea mai ano e ratou he parei, he kakau witi, ma nga hoiho, ma nga muera, ki te wahi i reira nei nga kaitohutohu, ia tangata ki tana mahi.
29 Na homai ana e te Atua he mohio ki a Horomona, me te mahara nui rawa, me te ngakau nui, koia ano kei te onepu i te taha o te moana.
30 Nui atu hoki te mohio o Horomona i te mohio o nga tama katoa o te rawhiti, i te mohio katoa o Ihipa.
31 Nui atu hoki tona mohio i to nga tangata katoa; i to Etana Eterahi, i to Hemana, i to Karakoro, i to Rarara, ara i to nga tama a Mahoro; a paku ana tona ingoa ki nga iwi katoa a tawhio noa.
32 Na e toru mano nga whakatauki i korerotia e ia; a ko ana waiata kotahi mano ma rima.
33 I korerotia ano e ia nga rakau, te hita i Repanona, a tae iho ana ki te hihopa e tupu nei ki te taiepa: i korerotia ano e ia nga kararehe, nga manu, nga mea ngoki, me nga ika.
34 A ka haere mai etahi i nga iwi katoa ki te whakarongo ki te mohio o Horomona, i nga kingi katoa o te whenua i rongo nei ki tona mohio.

1 Kings 4
New International Version
Solomon’s Officials and Governors
4 So King Solomon ruled over all Israel. 2 And these were his chief officials:(A)
Azariah(B) son of Zadok—the priest;
3 Elihoreph and Ahijah, sons of Shisha—secretaries;(C)
Jehoshaphat(D) son of Ahilud—recorder;
4 Benaiah(E) son of Jehoiada—commander in chief;
Zadok(F) and Abiathar—priests;
5 Azariah son of Nathan—in charge of the district governors;
Zabud son of Nathan—a priest and adviser to the king;
6 Ahishar—palace administrator;(G)
7 Solomon had twelve district governors(J) over all Israel, who supplied provisions for the king and the royal household. Each one had to provide supplies for one month in the year. 8 These are their names:
Ben-Hur—in the hill country(K) of Ephraim;
9 Ben-Deker—in Makaz, Shaalbim,(L) Beth Shemesh(M) and Elon Bethhanan;
10 Ben-Hesed—in Arubboth (Sokoh(N) and all the land of Hepher(O) were his);
11 Ben-Abinadab—in Naphoth Dor(P) (he was married to Taphath daughter of Solomon);
12 Baana son of Ahilud—in Taanach and Megiddo, and in all of Beth Shan(Q) next to Zarethan(R) below Jezreel, from Beth Shan to Abel Meholah(S) across to Jokmeam;(T)
13 Ben-Geber—in Ramoth Gilead (the settlements of Jair(U) son of Manasseh in Gilead(V) were his, as well as the region of Argob in Bashan and its sixty large walled cities(W) with bronze gate bars);
14 Ahinadab son of Iddo—in Mahanaim;(X)
15 Ahimaaz(Y)—in Naphtali (he had married Basemath daughter of Solomon);
16 Baana son of Hushai(Z)—in Asher and in Aloth;
17 Jehoshaphat son of Paruah—in Issachar;
18 Shimei(AA) son of Ela—in Benjamin;
19 Geber son of Uri—in Gilead (the country of Sihon(AB) king of the Amorites and the country of Og(AC) king of Bashan). He was the only governor over the district.
Solomon’s Daily Provisions
20 The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand(AD) on the seashore; they ate, they drank and they were happy.(AE) 21 And Solomon ruled(AF) over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River(AG) to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt.(AH) These countries brought tribute(AI) and were Solomon’s subjects all his life.
22 Solomon’s daily provisions(AJ) were thirty cors[a] of the finest flour and sixty cors[b] of meal, 23 ten head of stall-fed cattle, twenty of pasture-fed cattle and a hundred sheep and goats, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks and choice fowl.(AK) 24 For he ruled over all the kingdoms west of the Euphrates River, from Tiphsah(AL) to Gaza, and had peace(AM) on all sides. 25 During Solomon’s lifetime Judah and Israel, from Dan to Beersheba,(AN) lived in safety,(AO) everyone under their own vine and under their own fig tree.(AP)
26 Solomon had four[c] thousand stalls for chariot horses,(AQ) and twelve thousand horses.[d]
27 The district governors,(AR) each in his month, supplied provisions for King Solomon and all who came to the king’s table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking. 28 They also brought to the proper place their quotas of barley and straw for the chariot horses and the other horses.
Solomon’s Wisdom
29 God gave Solomon wisdom(AS) and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand(AT) on the seashore. 30 Solomon’s wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East,(AU) and greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.(AV) 31 He was wiser(AW) than anyone else, including Ethan the Ezrahite—wiser than Heman, Kalkol and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread to all the surrounding nations. 32 He spoke three thousand proverbs(AX) and his songs(AY) numbered a thousand and five. 33 He spoke about plant life, from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop(AZ) that grows out of walls. He also spoke about animals and birds, reptiles and fish. 34 From all nations people came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings(BA) of the world, who had heard of his wisdom.[e]
