2 Chronicles 1
1 Now Solomon son of David established himself securely over his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him and highly exalted him.
David capa Solomon loe a prae nuiah kacakah angdoet; anih taengah Angraeng Sithaw oh pongah, anih to paroeai lensawksak.
2 Then Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every leader in all Israel—the heads of the families.
Solomon mah Israel caanawk boih, misatuh sangto ukkung, cumvaito ukkung, lokcaekkung hoi Israel zaehoikungnawk boih, acaeng ukkungnawk boih khaeah, lokthuih pae.
3 And Solomon and the whole assembly went to the high place at Gibeon because it was the location of God’s Tent of Meeting, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.
Solomon loe a taengah kaom kaminawk hoi nawnto Gibeon ih hmuensang ah caeh; to ahmuen ah loe Angraeng ih tamna Mosi mah praezaek ah sak ih, Sithaw kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im to oh.
4 Now David had brought the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place he had prepared for it, because he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.
David mah Sithaw ih thingkhong suek hanah Jerusalem ah sak ih kahni im ah, Sithaw ih thingkhong to Kirjath-Jearim hoiah sin tahang.
5 But the bronze altar made by Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, was in Gibeon before the tabernacle of the LORD. So Solomon and the assembly inquired of Him there.
Toe Hur capa, Uri, Uri capa Bezalel mah sumkamling hoi sak ih hmaicam to Sithaw kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni hmaa ah a suek, to pongah Solomon hoi rangpuinawk loe to Sithaw ih thingkhong hmaa ah caeh o.
6 Solomon offered sacrifices there before the LORD on the bronze altar in the Tent of Meeting, where he offered a thousand burnt offerings.
Solomon loe kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni hmaa ih, Angraeng hmaa ah kaom, sumkamling hoiah sak ih hmaicam ah caeh tahang moe, to hmaicam nuiah hmai angbawnhaih sangto a sak.
7 That night God appeared to Solomon and said, “Ask, and I will give it to you!”
To na aqum ah Solomon khaeah Sithaw angphong pae moe, anih khaeah, Paeksak han na koeh ih hmuen to na hniah, tiah a naa.
8 Solomon replied to God: “You have shown much loving devotion to my father David, and You have made me king in his place.
Solomon mah Sithaw khaeah, Kam pa David khaeah kalen parai tahmenhaih nam tuengsak moe, anih zuengah kai hae siangpahrang ah nang suek boeh.
9 Now, O LORD God, let Your promise to my father David be fulfilled. For You have made me king over a people as numerous as the dust of the earth.
Vaihiah, Aw Angraeng Sithaw, maiphu baktih kapop kaminawk uk hanah siangpahrang ah nang suek pongah, kam pa David khaeah na suek ih lokkamhaih to cak nasoe.
10 Now grant me wisdom and knowledge, so that I may lead this people. For who is able to govern this great people of Yours?”
Hae kaminawk salakah zaehhoih thaihaih hoiah ka caeh moe, ka tacawt thai hanah, palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih to na paek ah; hae tih khoek to kapop nangmah ih kaminawk hae mi mah maw uk thai tih? tiah a naa.
11 God said to Solomon, “Since this was in your heart instead of requesting riches or wealth or glory for yourself or death for your enemies—and since you have not even requested long life but have asked for wisdom and knowledge to govern My people over whom I have made you king—
Sithaw mah Solomon khaeah, hae hmuen loe na koeh ih hmuen ah oh, angraenghaih, lensawkhaih, ahmin pakoehhaih, na misanawk paduek thaihaih, hinglung sawkhaih to nang hni ai; siangpahrang ah kang suek baktiah, kai ih kaminawk uk thaih hanah, palunghahaih hoi panoek thaihaih to nang hnik pongah,
12 therefore wisdom and knowledge have been granted to you. And I will also give you riches and wealth and honor unlike anything given to the kings before you or after you.”
palunghahaih hoi panoek thaihaih to kang paek; Na hmaa ah kaom siangpahrangnawk mah tawn o vai ai, nang pacoengah kaom siangpahrangnawk mah doeh tawn o vai ai ih, angraenghaih, lensawkhaih hoi ahmin pakoehhaih to kang paek bae han vop, tiah a naa.
13 So Solomon went to Jerusalem from the high place in Gibeon before the Tent of Meeting, and he reigned over Israel.
To pacoengah Solomon loe Gibeon hmuensang ah kaom, kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im hmaa hoi Jerusalem ah caeh moe, Israe prae to a uk.
14 Solomon accumulated 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horses, which he stationed in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem.
Solomon mah hrangleeng hoi hrang angthueng kaminawk to nawnto pakhueng; hrangleeng sang cumvai palito hoi hrang angthueng kami sang hatlaihnetto a tawnh; to hmuennawk boih loe hrangleeng suekhaih vangpui hoi Jerusalem ah a suek.
15 The king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as abundant as sycamore in the foothills.
Siangpahrang mah prae uk naah Jerusalem ah sui hoi sumkanglung loe thlung baktiah oh, sidar thing doeh azawn ah kamprawk thaduet thing baktiah pop.
16 Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and Kue; the royal merchants purchased them from Kue.
Solomon ih hrangnawk to Izip prae Kue vangpui ah lak o, siangpahrang ih hmuenmae zaw kaminawk mah Kue vangpui ah qanh o.
17 A chariot could be imported from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty. Likewise, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Aram.
Izip prae ih hrangleeng maeto loe sumkanglung shekel cumvai tarukto hoiah a qanh o; hrang maeto naah cumvai, quipangato paek o moe, Hit siangpahrang hoi Syria siangpahrangnawk khaeah a zawh o patoeng.
