And Solomon the son of David was established over his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and increased him exceedingly.
2 Solomon ni Isarelnaw abuemlah ransa 1000 touh kaukkungnaw, 100 touh kaukkungnaw, lawkcengkungnaw, Isarel ram kahrawikungnaw hoi imthung kahrawikungnaw abuemlah koe lawk a dei pouh.
And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands, and to the captains of hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the rulers over Israel, even the heads of the families;
3 Hahoi, BAWIPA e san Mosi ni a sak e rangpuinaw kamkhuengnae, Cathut e lukkareiim teh, Gibeon kho hmuen rasang koe ao dawkvah rangpuinaw abuemlah hoi Solomon hoi cungtalah a cei awh.
and Solomon and all the congregation went to the high place that was in Gabaon, where was God's tabernacle of witness, which Moses the servant of the Lord made in the wilderness.
4 Cathut e lawkkam thingkong teh Devit ni a rakueng tangcoung e hmuen, Jerusalem kho, a sak tangcoung e lukkareiim dawk, Kiriath-Jearim kho hoi a thokhai awh.
But David had brought up the ark of God out of the city of Cariathiarim; for David had prepared a place for it, for he had pitched a tabernacle for it in Jerusalem.
5 Hatei, Hur capa lah kaawm e Uri capa Bezalel ni a sak e rahum, thuengnae khoungroe hah BAWIPA e lukkareiim hmalah a hruek awh dawkvah, Solomon hoi taminaw teh hote thuengnae khoungroe koe a cei awh.
And the brazen altar which Beseleel the son of Urias, the son of Or, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the Lord: and Solomon and the congregation enquired at it.
6 Hottelah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim hmalah, BAWIPA hmalah kaawm e rahum thuengnae khoungroe koe Solomon a cei teh, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei 1000 touh hoi thuengnae a sak.
And Solomon brought [victims] there to the brazen altar that was before the Lord in the tabernacle, and offered upon it a thousand whole burnt offerings.
7 Hote karum vah, Solomon koe Cathut a kamnue teh, Bangmaw na poe han het haw, atipouh.
In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give you.
8 Solomon ni Cathut koevah, apa Devit koe pahrennae moikapap na sak teh a yueng lah siangpahrang e hmuen koe na hruek toe.
And Solomon said to God, You have dealt very mercifully with my father David, and have made me king in his stead.
9 Hatdawkvah, oe BAWIPA Cathut, vaiphu patetlah e taminaw e siangpahrang hmuen koe na hruek toung dawkvah, apa Devit koe lawk na kam e kuep sak loe.
And now, O Lord God, let, I pray you, your name be established upon David my father; for you have made me king over a people numerous as the dust of the earth.
10 Hete taminaw hmalah ka tâco kâen thai nahanelah, lungangnae hoi panuethainae na poe haw. Hettelah kapap e taminaw hah apinimaw a uk thai han, telah atipouh.
Now give me wisdom and understanding, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who shall judge this your great people?

And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked great wealth, nor glory, nor the life of your enemies, and you have not asked long life; but have asked for yourself wisdom and understanding, that you might judge my people, over whom I have made you king:
12 Lungangnae hoi panuethainae teh na poe toe. Hothloilah, hma lae kaawm e siangpahrangnaw hoi hmalah bout kaawm hane siangpahrangnaw ni, a tawn boihoeh e hnopai tawntanae hoi barinae na poe sin han telah atipouh.
I give you this wisdom and understanding; and I will give you wealth, and riches, and glory, so that there shall not have been [any] like you amongst the kings before you, neither shall there be such after you.
13 Hatdawkvah, Solomon teh hmuen karasang koe e lukkareiim a onae Gibeon kho hoi Jerusalem lah a ban teh Isarelnaw a uk.
And Solomon came from the high place that was in Gabaon to Jerusalem, [from] before the tabernacle of witness, and reigned over Israel.
14 Solomon ni rangleng hoi marangransanaw a pâkhueng parai teh, rangleng 400 hoi marang kâcuie tami 12,000 touh a tawn. Hotnaw teh rangleng tanae kho dawk thoseh, Jerusalem siangpahrang onae koe thoseh, hawvah a ta awh.
And Solomon collected chariots and horsemen: and he had fourteen hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen: and he set them in the cities of chariots, and the people [were] with the king in Jerusalem.
15 Siangpahrang teh Jerusalem kho vah, sui, ngun hah talung patetlah sidar thingnaw hah ayawn dawk kapâw e thailahei kungnaw patetlah thoseh apapsak.
And the king made silver and gold in Jerusalem [to be] as stones, and cedars in Judea as sycamores in the plain for multitude.
16 Solomon ni a tawn e marangnaw teh, Izip ram lahoi a thokhaienaw doeh. Siangpahrang e hno kayawtnaw ni aphu kâki lah Kue kho e ouk a ran awh.
And Solomon imported horses from Egypt, and the charge of the king's merchants for going [was as follows], and they traded,
17 Izip ram rangleng buet touh ngun shekel 600, marang buet touh ngun shekel 150 touh hoi ouk a yo awh. Hit siangpahrang hoi Siria siangpahrangnaw pueng koehai ouk a yo pouh awh.
and went and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [pieces] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty [pieces] of silver: and so they brought for all the kings of the Chettites, and for the kings of Syria by their means.
