1 David chapa Solomon chun alenggam dettah in atungdohtai; Ijeh inem itihleh Pakai a Pathen chun aumpia chuleh sangtah'a athaneisah ahitai.
Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.
2 Solomon chun Israel lamkaiho galsat sepai asang, aja chunga luboh ho thutan vaihom ho, gamsung lamkai hojouse chule phung lamkai ho akoukhomin ahi.
Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the ancestral houses.
3 Chuin Solomon chun houbung mipi chu Gibeon kho’a chu Pathen houkhom dingin a lamkai in a chetaove; Ijeh inem etileh hiche kho’a Pathen houbuh chu umma ahi(Hiche laimuna hi Pakai Lhacha Mose’n gamthip laiya Pathen houbuh asemna munchu ahi).
So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the Tent of Meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.
4 Ahinlah, David chun Jerusalem munna atunna dinga asemna Pathen Houbuh’a chu Pathen Thingkong chu Kiriath-Jearim akona ana pohlutsa ahitai.
But David had brought the ark of God up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
5 Ahinlah Uri Chapa, Hur tupa Betzalel kitipan asem sum-eng maicham chu Gibeon muna Pakai houbuh mai’a chun aum nalaijin ahi. Chuti chun Solomon le mipi chu houbuh masanga chun akikhom un Pakai chu ahoutaovin ahi.
Moreover the bronze altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Chulkomma Houbuh masanga chun Solomon chu sum-eng maicham umna'a chun akaltaovin Pakai angsungah pumgo thilto sangkhat jen agalhandohtan ahi.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
7 Chuche jan chun Solomon henga Pathen ahungkilah’in hitin ati “Epi pentah nadeijem, Thummin, chuleh Keiman nangma kapeh ding nahi.”
In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, "Ask what I shall give you."
8 Solomon in Pathen chu adonbutnin, Nangman kapa David chu lungsetna longlou hel nachanin, tun keima amakhellin lengin neipan sahtai,
Solomon said to God, "You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 O Pakai Pathen lungset tah in kapa David toh nakitepna koijinginlang Mihem hijat chunga hin lengin neipan sahtai.
Now, LORD God, let your promise to David my father be established; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
10 Mipi hijat chunga kituptah a kalam kai thei’a namite chunga vai kahom themtheina dingin chih na le hetna neipen,
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this your people, that is so great?"
11 Pathen chun Solomon jah a hitin aseijin, Neile gou, haona, loupina ahiloule nagal mite thina ding ahiloule nahinkho sotna joh thumlouva nangaichat sangpen namite kithopi thei nadingle achunguva vaihom them theina nathum tah jeh hin,
God said to Solomon, "Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of those who hate you, neither yet have asked long life; but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king:
12 Keiman nathumpen chihna le hetna chu kapeh ding; Chujongleh neile gou, haosatna le minthanna jong kapehtha ding, hitobang thil hi nama sangleh khonunga leng hungchang ding hon jong aneilou diu ahitai.
wisdom and knowledge is granted to you. I will give you riches, wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had who have been before you; neither shall there any after you have the like."
13 Hitichun Solomon chu Gibeon kho’a Pathen Houbuh’a kon chun Jerusalem lama ahung kinunglen Israelte chunga lengvai ana potan ahi.
So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, to Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
14 Solomon chun Kangtalai le sakol touthem ho chu akoukhom in ahileh kangtalai sangkhat le jali leh sakol touthem sang somle sangni aneijin ahi. Aman hichengse chu phabepkhat Kangtalai kikoina khopiho chule amakomnai sangsom le sangni nai’a Jerusalem khopi sunga chun atousah taove.
Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had one thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
15 Lengpa chun Sana le Dangka jong Jerusalem sunga chun songlheu lah abahsah jengin chuleh Cedar thing mantam jengjong Judah phaichama Theipi thinglah abahsah jengin ahi.
The king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
16 Solomon sakol ho chu ama dinga thilcho’a panghon Egypt gam le Celicia gam'a kona mantamtah’a agachoh uva ahin pohdoh’u ahi.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue; the king's merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 Chuche phatlai chun Egypt gamma kangtalai ho chu, dangka shekel jagup chule sakol ho chu dangka Shekel Jakhat le somnga manna ana kichojouvin ahi. Hiti chun Thilho chu Hittite lengte le Ram lengte koma ana kitol lut jin ahi.
They brought up and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Aram, they brought them out by their means.
