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.
And strengthen himself doth Solomon son of David over his kingdom, and Jehovah his God [is] with him, and maketh 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.
And Solomon saith to all Israel, to heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, and to judges, and to every honourable one of all Israel, heads of the fathers,
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.
and they go — Solomon, and all the assembly with him — to the high place that [is] in Gibeon, for there hath been God's tent of meeting, that Moses, servant of Jehovah, made in the wilderness,
4 Noyudo ka Daudi nosekelo Sandug Nyasaye koa Kiriath Jearim nyaka kama noselosone, nikech nosegurone hema Jerusalem.
but the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjath-Jearim, when David prepared for it, for he stretched out for it a tent in 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.
and the altar of brass that Bezaleel son of Uri, son of Hur made, he put before the tabernacle of Jehovah; and Solomon and the assembly seek to it.
6 Solomon noidho malo kar kendo mar misango mar mula e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ei Hemb Romo, mochiwo misengini miwangʼo pep alufu achiel.
And Solomon goeth up thither, on the altar of brass, before Jehovah, that [is] at the tent of meeting, and causeth to ascend upon it a thousand burnt-offerings.
7 Gotieno nogo Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Solomon mowachone niya, “Kwa gimoro amora midwaro mondo amiyi.”
In that night hath God appeared to Solomon, and saith to him, 'Ask — what do I give to thee?'
8 Solomon nodwoko Nyasaye niya, “isenyiso ngʼwono maduongʼ ni Daudi wuora kendo iketa abedo ruoth kare.
And Solomon saith to God, 'Thou hast done with David my father great kindness, and hast caused me to reign in his stead.
9 Koro, Jehova Nyasaye, mad imi singruok mane imiyo wuora Daudi ochopi, nikech iseketa ruoth kuom oganda mangʼeny ka buru manie piny.
Now, O Jehovah God, is Thy word with David my father stedfast, for Thou hast caused me to reign over a people numerous as the dust of the earth;
10 Miya rieko kod ngʼeyo mondo atel ne ogandani nimar en ngʼa manyalo telo ni oganda maduongʼ machalo kama?”
now, wisdom and knowledge give to me, and I go out before this people, and I come in, for who doth judge this Thy great people?'
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,
And God saith to Solomon, 'Because that this hath been with thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, and honour, and the life of those hating thee, and also many days hast not asked, and dost ask for thyself wisdom and knowledge, so that thou dost judge My people over which I have caused thee to reign —
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.”
the wisdom and the knowledge is given to thee, and riches and wealth and honour I give to thee, that there hath not been so to the kings who [are] before thee, and after thee it is not so.'
13 Bangʼe Solomon nodok Jerusalem koa kamotingʼore gi malo man Gibeon, e nyim Hemb Romo. Kendo notiyo tich ruoth Israel.
And Solomon cometh in [from] the high place that [is] in Gibeon to Jerusalem, from before the tent of meeting, and reigneth 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.
and Solomon gathereth chariots and horsemen, and he hath a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placeth them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in 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.
And the king maketh the silver and the gold in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he made as sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.
16 Solomon nokelo farese koa Misri kod e piny miluongo ni Kue, johala mag ruoth nongʼiewogi e piny Kue.
And the source of the horses that [are] to Solomon [is] from Egypt and from Keva; merchants of the king from Keva take at a price,
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.
and they come up, and bring out from Egypt a chariot for six hundred silverlings, and a horse for fifty and a hundred, and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Aram — by their hand they bring out.
