29 And God gave Solomon a great store of wisdom and good sense, and a mind of wide range, as wide as the sand by the seaside.

30 And Solomon's wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East and all the wisdom of Egypt.

31 For he was wiser than all men, even than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman and Calcol and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and he had a great name among all the nations round about.

32 He was the maker of three thousand wise sayings, and of songs to the number of a thousand and five.

29 Et Dieu donna à Salomon de la sagesse, une fort grande intelligence, et un esprit aussi vaste que le sable qui est sur le bord de la mer.

30 Et la sagesse de Salomon surpassait la sagesse de tous les Orientaux, et toute la sagesse des Égyptiens.

31 Il était plus sage qu'aucun homme; plus qu'Éthan l'Ézrachite, et Héman, Calcol et Darda, les fils de Machol; et sa réputation se répandit parmi toutes les nations d'alentour.

32 Il prononça trois mille sentences, et ses cantiques furent au nombre de mille et cinq.
