2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon, the son of David, made himself strong in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and made him very great.
Alò Salomon, fis a David la te etabli li menm byen solid sou wayòm li an. SENYÈ a, Bondye li a, te avèk li e Li te egzalte li anpil.
2 And Solomon sent word to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds and to the judges and to every chief in all Israel, heads of their families.
Salomon te pale a tout Israël, a kòmandan a dè milye yo e dè santèn yo, a jij yo e tout moun nan sila ki t ap dirije nan tout Israël yo, chèf lakay zansèt pa yo.
3 Then Solomon, and all the men of Israel with him, went to the high place at Gibeon, because the Tent of meeting of God, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had made in the waste land, was there.
Konsa, Salomon avèk tout asanble a avèk li menm te monte nan wo plas ki te Gabaon an; paske tant asanble a Bondye ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te fè nan dezè a, te la.
4 But the ark of God had been moved by David from Kiriath-jearim to the place which he had made ready for it, for he had put up a tent for it at Jerusalem.
Sepandan, David te gen tan mennen fè monte lach Bondye a soti Kirjath-Jearim nan plas li te prepare pou li. Paske li te fè monte yon tant pou li Jérusalem.
5 And the altar of brass which Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the Tent of the Lord; and Solomon and all the people went to give worship there.
Alò, lotèl an bwonz ke Betsaleel, fis a Uri a, te fè a te la devan tabènak SENYÈ a, e Salomon avèk asanble a te chache jwenn li.
6 And Solomon went up there to the brass altar before the Lord at the Tent of meeting, offering on it a thousand burned offerings.
Salomon te monte la devan SENYÈ a kote lotèl an bwonz nan tant asanble a, e li te ofri yon mil ofrann brile sou li.
7 In that night God came to Solomon in a vision, and said to him, Say what I am to give you.
Nan lannwit, Bondye te parèt a Salomon. Li te di l: “Mande M sa pou M ta ba ou.”
8 And Solomon said to God, Great was your mercy to David my father, and you have made me king in his place.
Salomon te reponn a Bondye: “Ou te aji avèk papa m David avèk anpil lanmou dous, e Ou te fè m wa nan plas li.
9 Now, O Lord God, let your word to David my father come true; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in number.
Koulye a, O SENYÈ Bondye, Sa Ou te pwomèt a papa m nan, David, akonpli. Paske Ou te fè m wa sou yon pèp ki gran an kantite tankou pousyè latè.
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, so that I may go out and come in before this people: for who is able to be the judge of this great people of yours?
Koulye a, ban mwen sajès avèk konesans, pou m kab antre sòti devan pèp sa a, paske se kilès ki kab gouvène gran pèp Ou sa a?”
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart, and you did not make request for money, property, or honour, or for the destruction of your haters, or for long life; but you have made request for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you may be the judge of my people over whom I have made you king:
Bondye te di a Salomon: “Akoz ou te gen sa nan tèt ou e ou pa t mande richès, ni byen, ni lonè, ni lavi a sila ki rayi ou yo, ni ou pa t menm mande pou yon vi long, men ou te mande pou kont ou sajès pou ou ta kab gouvène pèp Mwen an, sou sila Mwen te fè ou wa a,
12 Wisdom and knowledge are given to you; and I will give you wealth and honour, such as no king has had before you or ever will have after you.
sajès avèk konesans gen tan bay a ou menm. Epi Mwen va ba ou richès avèk byen, avèk lonè, tankou okenn nan wa avan ou yo pa t janmen genyen, ni sila ki va swiv ou yo.”
13 So Solomon went back from the high place at Gibeon, from before the Tent of meeting, to Jerusalem; and he was king over Israel.
Konsa, Salomon te sòti nan kote wo ki te Gabaon an, li te soti nan tant asanble a, pou rive Jérusalem; e li te renye sou tout Israël.
14 And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, which he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.
Salomon te vin gen cha avèk chevalye. Li te gen mil-kat-san cha avèk douz-mil chevalye e li te estasyone yo nan vil cha yo epi ak wa a nan Jérusalem.
15 And the king made silver and gold as common as stones in Jerusalem, and cedar like the sycamore-trees of the lowland in number.
Wa a te fè ajan avèk lò vin an kantite Jérusalem, menm jan avèk wòch, e li te fè bwa sèd vin anpil tankou bwa sikomò nan ba plèn nan.
16 And Solomon's horses came out of Egypt; the king's traders got them from Kue at a price.
Cheval Salomon yo te enpòte soti an Égypte ak Kue. Komèsan a wa yo te achte yo nan Kue.
17 A war-carriage might be got from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: they got them at the same rate for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
Yo te enpòte cha yo soti an Égypte pou sis-san sik ajan chak, cheval yo pou san-senkant chak, e pa menm mwayen an, yo te fè distribisyon a tout wa Etyen yo avèk wa Siryen yo.
