< 2 Chronicles 2 >

1 Now it was Solomon's purpose to put up a house for the name of the Lord and a house for himself as king.
Solomon nochiwo chik mondo ger hekalu ni Nying Jehova Nyasaye kod ode mar ruoth.
2 And Solomon had seventy thousand men numbered for transport, and eighty thousand for cutting stone in the mountains, and three thousand, six hundred as overseers.
Nondiko jotingʼ gik moko ji alufu piero abiriyo gi jopa kite e got ji alufu piero aboro kod nyipeche alufu adek gi mia auchiel.
3 And Solomon sent to Huram, king of Tyre, saying, As you did for my father David, sending him cedar-trees for the building of his house,
Solomon noorone Hiram ruodh Turo wach niya, “Orna yiend sida kaka ne iorone wuora Daudi sida mane ogerogo ode mar dak.
4 See! I am building a house for the name of the Lord my God, to be made holy to him, where perfumes of sweet spices will be burned before him, and the holy bread will be placed at all times, and burned offerings will be offered morning and evening, on the Sabbaths and at the new moons, and on the regular feasts of the Lord our God. This is a law for ever to Israel.
Sani achiegni gero hekalu ni Nying Jehova Nyasaye Nyasacha mondo achiwne kaka kar wangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar e nyime. Hekaluni nobed kama iketoe makati mowal e nyime pile, kendo kama ichiwoe misengini miwangʼo pep mapile pile okinyi godhiambo. Misenginigi bende notim kinde Sabato kod ndalo ma dwe opor, kaachiel gi sewni moyier mag Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa. Ma en chik mochwere ni jo-Israel.
5 And the house which I am building is to be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
“Hekalu ma anager nobed maduongʼ nikech Nyasachwa duongʼ moloyo nyiseche mamoko duto.
6 But who may have strength enough to make a house for him, seeing that the heaven and the heaven of heavens are not wide enough to be his resting-place? who am I then to make a house for him? But I am building it only for the burning of perfume before him.
To en ngʼa manyalo gerone hekalu, ka kata polo malo kata polo mabor moloyo ok nyal romi? An to an ngʼa mondo agerne hekalu makmana gero kama iwangʼoe misengini e nyime?
7 So now send me an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron? in purple and red and blue, and in the cutting of all sorts of ornament, to be with the expert workmen who are here in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom my father David got together.
“Yie iorna ngʼama olony e tij dhahabu kod fedha, kod mula kod nyinyo kendo mongʼeyo loso law maralik gi makwar kod marambulu kendo man-gi ngʼeyo kuom goro gik mamoko mondo oti gi jotichna molony man Juda gi Jerusalem mane Daudi wuora oketo.
8 And send me cedar-trees, cypress-trees and sandal-wood from Lebanon, for, to my knowledge, your servants are expert wood-cutters in Lebanon; and my servants will be with yours,
“Kowna bende yiend sida gi saipras gi algumo mag Lebanon nimar angʼeyo ni jotiji olony e ngʼado yiende kanyo. Jotijena biro tiyo kanyakla kod jotijegi
9 To get trees for me in great numbers, for the house which I am building is to be great and a wonder.
mondo giikna yiende mangʼeny nikech hekalu magero nyaka bed maduongʼ kendo miwuoro.
10 And I will give as food to your servants, the wood-cutters, twenty thousand measures of grain, and twenty thousand measures of barley and twenty thousand measures of wine and twenty thousand measures of oil.
Anami jotichni ma jongʼad yien gunde alufu piero angʼwen mag ngano moregi, gi gunde alufu piero ariyo gariyo mag shairi gi degi alufu angʼwen mag divai kod depe alufu angʼwen mag mo.”
11 Then Huram, king of Tyre, sent Solomon an answer in writing, saying, Because of his love for his people the Lord has made you king over them.
Hiram ruodh Turo nodwoko Solomon gi baruwa kowacho: “Nikech Jehova Nyasaye ohero joge oseketi idoko ruodhgi.”
12 And Huram said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, maker of heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, full of wisdom and good sense, to be the builder of a house for the Lord and a house for himself as king.
Kendo Hiram nomedo wacho niya, “Pak odogne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel mane ochweyo polo gi piny! Osemiyo Ruoth Daudi wuowi mariek, mongʼeyo fwono tiend weche kendo fwenyo gik moko, en ema noger hekalu ne Jehova Nyasaye to gi od ruoth modakie owuon.
13 And now I am sending you a wise and expert man, Huram who is as my father,
“Aoroni Huram-Abi ngʼat man-gi lony maduongʼ
14 The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father was a man of Tyre, an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron, in stone and wood, in purple and blue and fair linen and red, trained in the cutting of every sort of ornament and the invention of every sort of design; let him be given a place among your expert workmen and those of my lord, your father David.
ma min-gi ne nyar Dan to wuon-gi ne ja-Turo. Ne otiegore e tije dhahabu, kod fedha, mula kod nyinyo, kidi kod yien, kendo kuom loso lewni maralik gi marambulu gi marakwaro to gi law katana maber. En kod lony mangʼeny kuom kit goro duto kendo loso kido moro amora momiye. Enoti gi jotijegi molony kaachiel gi mag ruodha Daudi wuonu.
15 So now let my lord send to his servants the grain and the oil and the wine as my lord has said;
“Emomiyo ruodha yie iorna ngano gi shairi kod mo zeituni kod divai mane isingo.
16 And we will have wood cut from Lebanon, as much as you have need of, and will send it to you on flat boats by sea to Joppa, and from there you may take it up to Jerusalem.
Wanatongʼ yiend Lebanon moromo kaka idwaro kendo nwatwegi kanyakla ma wakwangʼ-gi e nam nyaka Jopa, eka iniomgi mitergi Jerusalem.”
17 Then Solomon took the number of all the men from strange lands who were living in Israel, as his father David had done; there were a hundred and fifty-three thousand, six hundred.
Solomon nokwano jodak duto man Israel bangʼ kwan mane wuon mare Daudi nosekwano kendo noyudo ni gin ji alufu mia achiel gi piero abich gadek gi mia auchiel.
18 Seventy thousand he put to the work of transport, eighty thousand to cutting stone in the mountains, and three thousand, six hundred as overseers to put the people to work.
Ne oketo ji alufu piero abiriyo kuomgi mondo obed jotingʼo to ji alufu piero aboro opa kite e gode kaachiel gi ji alufu adek gi mia auchiel ma nyipechegi mondo omi ji oti.
