2 Chronicles 8
1 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the house of Jehovah, and his own house,
Salomo dii ɔhene no, ne mfeɛ aduonu so na ɔwiee Awurade Asɔredan sie dwumadie kɛseɛ ne nʼankasa ahemfie no sie.
2 that the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the sons of Israel to dwell there.
Afei, Salomo de nʼadwene kɔɔ nkuro a ɔhene Huram de ama no no so. Ɔsiesiee nkuro no, na ɔmaa Israelfoɔ no kɔtenatenaa mu.
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, and prevailed against it.
Saa ɛberɛ yi ara mu nso na Salomo ko tiaa kuro Hamat-Soba, dii so nkonim.
4 And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store-cities, which he built in Hamath.
Ɔkyekyeree Tadmor bio wɔ ɛserɛ so, na ɔkyekyeree nkuro wɔ Hamat mantam mu a ɛhɔ na na wɔkora nneɛma.
5 Also he built Beth-horon the upper, and Beth-horon the lower, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars,
Ɔbɔɔ nkuropɔn a na ɛwɔ atifi Bet-Horon ne anafoɔ Bet-Horon ho ban. Ɔsane too wɔn afasuo no, de apono a wɔbram akyire totoo ano.
6 and Baalath, and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
Saa ɛberɛ yi, ɔsane kyekyeree Baalat ne mmeammea a wɔkora nneɛma wɔ hɔ, sane kyekyeree nkuropɔn a wɔbɛkora ne nteaseɛnam ne nʼapɔnkɔ wɔ hɔ. Ɔkyekyeree mmeammea bi wɔ Yerusalem ne Lebanon ne ahemman no nyinaa mu maa nʼakoma tɔɔ ne yam.
7 As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, that were not of Israel,
Ɛbɛsi saa ɛberɛ no, na nnipa bi tete asase no so a wɔnyɛ Israelfoɔ. Na saa nnipa no yɛ Hetifoɔ, Amorifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ.
8 of their sons who were left after them in the land whom the sons of Israel did not consumed, of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.
Yeinom yɛ aman a Israel ntɔree wɔn ase korakora no asefoɔ. Ɛno enti, Salomo hyɛɛ wɔn maa wɔyɛɛ adwuma maa no. Na ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ, wɔsom sɛ apaafoɔ.
9 But Solomon made no servants of the sons of Israel for his work, but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
Nanso, Salomo anhyɛ Israelni biara amma wanyɛ adwuma sɛ ɔpaani. Mmom, ɔmaa ebinom kɔyɛɛ asraafoɔ, mpanimfoɔ wɔ nʼakodɔm mu ne ne nteaseɛnam ne nʼapɔnkɔkafoɔ so asahene.
10 And these were the chief officers of king Solomon, even two hundred and fifty that bore rule over the people.
Ɔhene Salomo yii wɔn mu ahanu aduonum maa wɔkɔhwɛɛ ne nkɔsoɔnnwuma so.
11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David to the house that he had built for her. For he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy in which the ark of Jehovah has come.
Salomo yii ne yere a ɔyɛ Farao babaa firii Dawid kuro mu, de no kɔɔ ahemfie foforɔ a wasi ama no no mu. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ me yere tena Ɔhene Dawid ahemfie, ɛfiri sɛ, na Awurade Apam Adaka no si hɔ, enti ɛhɔ yɛ asase kronkron.”
12 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Jehovah on the altar of Jehovah, which he had built before the porch,
Na Salomo bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ afɔrebukyia a wasi wɔ Asɔredan no abankua no anim no so, maa Awurade.
13 even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.
Ɛda biara, na wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ sɛdeɛ Mose hyɛɛ wɔn no. Afahyɛ ahodoɔ a wɔdiiɛ no bi ne Homeda, Ɔbosome Foforɔ Ɛda, ne mfirinhyia mmiɛnsa biara afahyɛ no mu a, ɛyɛ Twam Afahyɛ, Otwaberɛ Afahyɛ ne Asese Afahyɛ.
14 And he appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise, and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required, also the porters by their divisions at every gate. For so David the man of God had commanded.
Salomo de asɔfoɔ no nnwuma rehyɛ wɔn nsa no, ɔfaa nʼagya Dawid akwankyerɛ so. Saa ara na ɔmaa Lewifoɔ no dii ɔmanfoɔ no anim too ayɛyie nnwom, na wɔboaa asɔfoɔ no wɔ wɔn daa daa nnwuma mu. Ɔde apono ano ahwɛfoɔ akuakuo no sisii wɔn apono ano sɛdeɛ Dawid, Onyankopɔn onipa no kyerɛɛ wɔn no.
15 And they did not depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.
Salomo ankwae amfiri akwankyerɛ a Dawid maeɛ a ɛfa asɔfoɔ, Lewifoɔ ne sikakorabea ho no.
16 Now all the work of Solomon was prepared from the day of the foundation of the house of Jehovah, and until it was finished. So the house of Jehovah was completed.
Na Salomo hwɛɛ sɛ biribiara a ɛfa Awurade Asɔredan no sie ho firi da a wɔtwaa ne fapem, kɔsi da a wɔde wiee sie no adi mu.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
Akyire no, Salomo kɔɔ Esion-Geber ne Elot a ɛyɛ ahyɛngyinabea a ɛwɔ Edom asase a ɛda Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ mpoano hɔ.
18 And Huram sent ships to him by the hands of his servants, and servants who had knowledge of the sea. And they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and fetched from there four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
Huram brɛɛ no ahyɛn a ɔno ankasa mpanimfoɔ hwɛ so, na emu adwumayɛfoɔ yɛ wɔn a wɔnim adwuma yie. Salomo nkurɔfoɔ ne saa ahyɛn yi kɔɔ Ofir asase so, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ a na ɛkari bɛyɛ tɔno 17 brɛɛ Salomo.
