< 2 Chronicles 1 >

1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom. And Jehovah his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.
Ary Solomona, zanak’ i Davida, dia nitombo hery tamin’ ny fanjakany, ary Jehovah Andriamaniny nomba azy ka nanandratra azy indrindra.
2 And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every ruler in all Israel, the heads of the fathers.
Ary Solomona nandidy Isiraely rehetra, dia mpifehy arivo sy mpifehy zato sy mpitsara ary loham-pirenena rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely, dia lohan’ ny fianakaviana,
3 So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon. For the tent of meeting of God was there, which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness.
ka dia niara-niakatra ho any amin’ ny fitoerana avo tao Gibeona Solomona sy fiangonana rehetra; fa tao trano-lay fihaonana izay an’ Andriamanitra, ilay nataon’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, tany an-efitra.
4 But the ark of God David had brought up from Kiriath-jearim to the place that David had prepared for it. For he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
Fa fiaran’ Andriamanitra efa nampakarin’ i Davida avy ta Kiriata-jearima ho ao amin’ izay efa namboariny ho azy; fa efa nanorina lay ho azy tany Jerosalema izy.
5 Moreover the brazen altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of Jehovah. And Solomon and the assembly sought to it.
Ary alitara varahina izay nataon’ i Bezalila, zanak’ i Ory zanak’ i Hora, dia teo anoloan’ ny tabernakelin’ i Jehovah; ary Solomona sy fiangonana nitady Azy tao.
6 And Solomon went up there to the brazen altar before Jehovah, which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings upon it.
Ary Solomona nanatitra fanatitra teo amin’ ny alitara varahina teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, izay momba ny trano-lay fihaonana; fanatitra dorana arivo no nateriny teo.
7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give thee.
Tamin’ ny alin’ iny no nisehoan’ Andriamanitra tamin’ i Solomona, ka hoy Izy taminy: Angataho izay tianao homeko anao.
8 And Solomon said to God, Thou have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his stead.
Dia hoy Solomona tamin’ Andriamanitra: Hianao efa naneho fahasoavana lehibe tamin’ i Davida raiko ary nampanjaka ahy handimby azy.
9 Now, O Jehovah God, let thy promise to David my father be established. For thou have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
Koa ankehitriny, ry Jehovah Andriamanitra ô, aoka ho tanteraka teninao tamin’ i Davida raiko; fa Hianao efa nampanjaka ahy tamin’ ny vahoaka maro be tahaka ny vovo-tany.
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people. For who can judge this thy people, that is so great?
Koa omeo fahendrena sy fahalalana aho hitarihako ireto vahoaka ireto mivoaka sy miditra; fa iza no hahay mitsara izao olonao betsaka izao?
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou have not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of those who hate thee, neither yet have asked long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou may judge my people over whom I have made thee king,
Dia hoy Andriamanitra tamin’ i Solomona: Satria tao am-ponao izany ka tsy nangataka vola aman-karena ianao, na voninahitra, na ain’ ny fahavalonao, ary tsy nangataka ho ela velona aza, fa nangataka fahendrena sy fahalalana hitsaranao ny oloko izay nampanjakako anao,
12 wisdom and knowledge are granted to thee. And I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had who have been before thee, neither shall any after thee have the like.
dia omena anao ny fahendrena sy fahalalana; ary homeko vola aman-karena sy voninahitra koa ianao, mihoatra noho izay nananan’ ny mpanjaka rehetra na iza na iza tany alohanao, ary tsy hisy hanana tahaka izany ny any aorianao.
13 So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, to Jerusalem, and he reigned over Israel.
Ary tonga tany Jerosalema Solomona avy teo amin’ ny fitoerana avo tao Gibeona, dia teo anoloan’ ny trano-lay fihaonana; ary nanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely izy.
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. And he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
Ary Solomona nanangona kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly ka nanana kalesy efa-jato amby arivo sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly roa arivo sy iray alina, izay nataony tany amin’ ireny tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy ary tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tany Jerosalema.
15 And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars he made to be as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
Ary nataon’ ny mpanjaka ho tahaka ny vato ny habetsaky ny volafotsy sy ny volamena tany Jerosalema, ary ny hazo sedera nataony toy ny aviavy eny amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.
16 And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt. The king's merchants received them in herds, each herd at a price.
Avy tany Egypta no nahazoan’ i Solomona soavaly; ary ny iray toko tamin’ ny mpandranton’ ny mpanjaka dia naka andiany iray araka izay vidiny voatendry.
17 And they went after and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty. And so they brought them out by their means for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Syria.
Ary ny vidin’ ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany koa no nitondrany ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Syriana.
