Verse 28 is found in chapter 10 of 1 Kings. Solomon surpasses the other kings in wealth and wisdom, and visitors from various nations come to hear him. Horses and chariots imported from Egypt and elsewhere complete the portrait of a regional power. The section reaches the kingdom’s peak of international prestige. Yet these very elements of wealth, horses, and military trade prepare the contrast with the requirements of the law and the king’s later spiritual decline.

Und man brachte dem Salomo Pferde aus Ägypten und allerlei Ware; und die Kaufleute des Königs kauften diese Ware

Los caballos de Salomón procedían de Egipto y de Coa. Los comerciantes del rey los adquirían en Coa, pagando su precio.
C'était de l'Egypte que Salomon tirait ses chevaux; une caravane de marchands du roi les allait chercher par troupes à un prix fixe:
Ora, quant’è alla tratta de’ cavalli, e del filo che Salomone avea di Egitto, i fattori del re prendevano il filo a certo prezzo.
E traziam do Egito, para Salomão, cavalos e fio de linho; e os mercadores do rei recebiam o fio de linho, por um certo preço.
所羅門 的馬是從 埃及 和 科威 運來的,是王的商人按著定價從 科威 買來的。
