Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne, to be king for the LORD thy God: because thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever, therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 9 of 2 Chronicles. The queen acknowledges that reality surpasses what she had heard and attributes Solomon’s prosperity to God’s love for Israel. The episode functions as international testimony to the wisdom granted to the king. Jerusalem’s reputation attracts a foreign representative who ultimately recognizes the activity of Israel’s God.

Der HERR, dein Gott, sei gelobt, der dich liebhat, daß er dich auf seinen Stuhl zum König gesetzt hat dem HERRN, deinem Gott. Das macht, dein Gott hat Israel lieb, daß er es ewiglich aufrichte; darum hat er dich über sie zum König gesetzt, daß du Recht und Redlichkeit handhabest.
Jehová tu Dios sea bendito, el cual se ha agradado en ti para ponerte sobre su trono por rey de Jehová tu Dios: por cuanto tu Dios amó a Israel para afirmarlo perpetuamente, por eso te ha puesto por rey sobre ellos, para que hagas juicio y justicia.
¡Bendito sea Jehová, tu Dios, que se ha complacido en ti y te ha puesto sobre su trono como rey para Jehová, tu Dios! Porque tu Dios ama a Israel para establecerlo para siempre, te puso como rey sobre ellos para administrar el derecho y la justicia».
Béni soit l'Eternel, ton Dieu, qui t'a accordé la faveur de te placer sur son trône comme roi pour l'Eternel, ton Dieu! C'est parce que ton Dieu aime Israël et veut le faire subsister à toujours, qu'il t'a établi roi sur lui pour que tu fasses droit et justice.
Benedetto sia il Signore Iddio tuo, il quale ti ha gradito, per metterti sopra il suo trono, per esser re nel Nome del Signore; per l’amore che l’Iddio tuo porta ad Israele, per istabilirlo in perpetuo, egli ti ha costituito re sopra esso, per far ragione e giustizia.
Bendito seja o SENHOR teu Deus, que se agradou de ti para te colocar no seu trono como rei para o SENHOR teu Deus; porque teu Deus ama a Israel, para estabelecê-lo perpetuamente; por isso te constituiu rei sobre eles para fazeres juízo e justiça.
耶和華-你的上帝是應當稱頌的!他喜愛你,使你坐他的王位,為耶和華-你的上帝作王;因為你的上帝愛 以色列 ,要永遠堅立它,所以立你作他們的王,使你秉公行義。」
