1 BAWIPA Cathut ni Devit capa Solomon a okhai dawkvah, ahnie a uknaeram teh hoehoe a cak teh, puenghoi a tawmtakhang.
Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and YHWH his God was with him, and magnified 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.
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 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.
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 YHWH had 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 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 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.
Moreover the bronze altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of YHWH: and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
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.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before YHWH, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
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.
Solomon said to God, "You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
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.
Now, YHWH 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 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 knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this your people, that is so great?"
11 Cathut ni Solomon koevah, hottelah pouknae na tawn teh, hnopai tawntanae, barinae hoi tarannaw e hringnae, na het laipalah nang koe siangpahrang na coungsaknae dawk ka taminaw na uk thai nahanelah lungangnae hoi panuethainae na hei dawkvah,
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 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.
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 Hatdawkvah, Solomon teh hmuen karasang koe e lukkareiim a onae Gibeon kho hoi Jerusalem lah a ban teh Isarelnaw a uk.
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 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.
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 Siangpahrang teh Jerusalem kho vah, sui, ngun hah talung patetlah sidar thingnaw hah ayawn dawk kapâw e thailahei kungnaw patetlah thoseh apapsak.
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 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.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue; the king's merchants purchased them from Kue.
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.
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.
