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.
Salomo apesaki mitindo mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ndako ya mokonzi mpo na ye moko.
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.
Salomo asangisaki bato nkoto tuku sambo mpo na komema biloko ya kotongela, bato nkoto tuku mwambe mpo na kobuka mabanga na bangomba, mpe bato nkoto misato na nkama motoba mpo na kokengela bango.
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,
Salomo atindaki maloba oyo epai ya Irami, mokonzi ya Tiri: — Sala na ngai ndenge osalaki mpo na Davidi, tata na ngai, tango otindelaki ye mabaya ya nzete ya sedele mpo na kotonga ndako na ye ya kovanda.
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.
Nzokande, ngai nalingi sik’oyo kotonga Tempelo mpo na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, mpo na kobulisa yango mpo na lokumu na Ye, mpo na kobonzela Ye malasi ya solo kitoko lokola mbeka, mpo na kobongisaka kuna mapa tango nyonso, mpo na kobonzaka kuna bambeka ya kotumba, tongo mpe pokwa, mpe mpo na kosepelaka kuna mikolo ya Saba, ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe ya bafeti oyo ekatama, ya Yawe, Nzambe na biso, ndenge ezali malako ya tango nyonso mpo na Isalaele.
5 And the house which I am building is to be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
Tempelo oyo nakotonga ekozala monene, pamba te Nzambe na biso azali monene koleka banzambe nyonso.
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.
Kasi nani akoki kotongela Ye Tempelo, pamba te Likolo mpe Likolo oyo eleki likolo ekoki kokoka Ye te? Mpe ngai nde nani mpo ete natongela Ye Tempelo, soki kaka etumbelo te mpo na kotumba mbeka ya malasi liboso na Ye?
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.
Boye, tindela ngai moto oyo ayebi kosalela wolo, palata, bronze, ebende, langi ya motane ya pete, langi ya motane ya makasi mpe langi ya ble, mpe ayebi kotobola bililingi, mpo ete asala mosala, kati na Yuda mpe Yelusalemi, elongo na basali na ngai, oyo bayebi penza mosala, ba-oyo Davidi, tata na ngai, abongisaki.
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,
Tindela ngai mpe, wuta na Libani, mabaya ya nzete ya sedele, ya sipele mpe ya santale, pamba te nayebi ete bato na yo bayebi malamu kokata banzete ya Libani. Bato na ngai bakosala elongo na basali na yo,
9 To get trees for me in great numbers, for the house which I am building is to be great and a wonder.
bakobongisela ngai mabaya ebele, pamba te Tempelo oyo nazali kotonga esengeli kozala monene mpe kitoko.
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.
Nakopesa na basali na yo, oyo bakokata banzete batone nkoto motoba ya ble, batone nkoto minei ya orje, balitele ya vino nkoto nkama libwa, balitele ya mafuta nkoto nkama libwa.
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.
Irami, mokonzi ya Tiri, azongiselaki Salomo na mokanda: — Ezali mpo ete Yawe alingi bato na Ye nde akomisi yo mokonzi na bango.
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.
Irami alobaki na ye lisusu: — Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, Mokeli ya likolo mpe se, apambolama, mpo ete apesi na mokonzi Davidi mwana mobali ya mayele mpe ya bososoli, oyo akotonga Tempelo mpo na Yawe mpe ndako ya mokonzi mpo na ye moko.
13 And now I am sending you a wise and expert man, Huram who is as my father,
Nazali kotindela yo sik’oyo Urami-Abi; azali penza moto moko ya mayele oyo ayebi mosala malamu.
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.
Mama na ye azalaki moto ya libota ya Dani, mpe tata na ye, moto ya Tiri. Abongisama mpo na misala ya wolo, ya palata, ya bronze, ya ebende, ya mabanga, ya mabaya, ya kotia langi ya motane makasi, ya ble, ya motane ya pete mpe ya kobongisa lino ya pete. Ayebi malamu mosala ya kotobola bililingi, mpe akoki kosala mosala nyonso oyo bakosenga ye. Akosala elongo na basali na yo mpe na basali ya nkolo na ngai, Davidi, tata na yo.
15 So now let my lord send to his servants the grain and the oil and the wine as my lord has said;
Sik’oyo, tika ete nkolo na ngai atinda epai ya basali na ye ble, orje, mafuta mpe masanga ya vino oyo alakaki.
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.
Biso, tokokata banzete nyonso ya Libani, oyo ozali na yango posa; tokokangisa mpe tokotinda yango na nzela ya mayi ya ebale monene kino na Jafa. Wuta kuna, yo okokomisa yango na Yelusalemi.
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.
Salomo atangaki motango ya bapaya nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na Isalaele kolanda ndenge Davidi, tata na ye, atangaki motango ya bato. Bazalaki bato nkoto nkama moko na tuku mitano na misato na nkama motoba.
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.
Aponaki bato nkoto tuku sambo mpo na komema biloko, bato nkoto tuku mwambe mpo na kobuka mabanga na bangomba, mpe bakengeli nkoto misato na nkama motoba mpo na kosalisa bato misala.
