2 Weche Mag Ndalo 1
1 Solomon wuod Daudi nogurore motegno e pinye nikech Jehova Nyasaye Nyasache ne ni kode kendo ne okete obedo ngʼama duongʼ miwuoro.
Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.
2 Eka Solomon nowuoyo gi jo-Israel duto, magin jotend migepe mag jolweny alufu achiel kod jotend jolweny mag mia achiel, gi jongʼad bura, to gi jotelo duto man Israel, kaka jotend dhoudi.
Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ households.
3 Kendo Solomon gi chokruok duto nodhi kar lemo motingʼore malo e Gibeon nikech Hemb Romo mar Nyasaye mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye noloso e thim ne ni kanyo.
Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for God’s Tent of Meeting was there, which the LORD’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.
4 Noyudo ka Daudi nosekelo Sandug Nyasaye koa Kiriath Jearim nyaka kama noselosone, nikech nosegurone hema Jerusalem.
But David had brought God’s ark up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
5 To kendo mar misango mar mula mane Bezalel wuod Uri ma wuod Hur noloso ne ni Gibeon e nyim hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, omiyo Solomon kod oganda duto nolamo Nyasaye kanyo.
Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the LORD’s tabernacle; and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Solomon noidho malo kar kendo mar misango mar mula e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ei Hemb Romo, mochiwo misengini miwangʼo pep alufu achiel.
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 Gotieno nogo Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Solomon mowachone niya, “Kwa gimoro amora midwaro mondo amiyi.”
That night, God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for what you want me to give you.”
8 Solomon nodwoko Nyasaye niya, “isenyiso ngʼwono maduongʼ ni Daudi wuora kendo iketa abedo ruoth kare.
Solomon said to God, “You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 Koro, Jehova Nyasaye, mad imi singruok mane imiyo wuora Daudi ochopi, nikech iseketa ruoth kuom oganda mangʼeny ka buru manie piny.
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 Miya rieko kod ngʼeyo mondo atel ne ogandani nimar en ngʼa manyalo telo ni oganda maduongʼ machalo kama?”
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of yours?”
11 Nyasaye nodwoko Solomon niya, “Nikech ma e gima chunyi dwaro kendo ne ok ikwaya mwandu kata duongʼ kata pak, kata tho mar wasiki, kata kwayo mondo idag amingʼa, to isekwayo rieko kod ngʼeyo kaka dirit ogandana ma aseketi ibedo e ruoth,
God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, nor yet have you asked for long life; but have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king,
12 omiyo anamiyi rieko kod ngʼeyo. Kendo abiro miyi mwandu kod duongʼ kod pak maonge ruoth kata achiel kuom mago moteloni kata mabiro bangʼi nobedgo.”
therefore 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, and none after you will have.”
13 Bangʼe Solomon nodok Jerusalem koa kamotingʼore gi malo man Gibeon, e nyim Hemb Romo. Kendo notiyo tich ruoth Israel.
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 nongʼiewo geche mag lweny kod farese; ne en gi geche lweny alufu achiel mia angʼwen kod farese alufu apar gariyo mane oketo e mier madongo mag geche lweny to moko bende noketo Jerusalem kama nodake.
Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. 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 Ruoth nomiyo fedha gi dhahabu obedo manwangʼo yot ka kidi akida Jerusalem kendo yiend sida ne ngʼeny mana ka yiend ngʼowu ma otwi e got.
The king made silver and gold to be as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars to be as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
16 Solomon nokelo farese koa Misri kod e piny miluongo ni Kue, johala mag ruoth nongʼiewogi e piny Kue.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 Negingʼiewo gach lweny koa Misri e nengo mar kilo abiriyo mar fedha kendo faras achiel e nengo maromo kilo ariyo. Bende ne giusogi ni ruodhi duto mag jo-Hiti gi jo-Aram.
They imported from Egypt then exported a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver and a horse for one hundred fifty. They also exported them to the Hittite kings and the Syrian kings.
