< Chronicles II 8 >

1 And it came to pass after twenty years, in which Solomon built the house of the Lord, and his own house,
Sima na mibu tuku mibale oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ndako na ye moko,
2 that Solomon rebuilt the cities which Chiram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell in them.
Salomo atongaki lisusu bingumba mike oyo Irami apesaki ye mpe avandisaki kuna bana ya Isalaele.
3 And Solomon came to Baesoba, and fortified it.
Salomo akendeki kobundisa engumba Amati ya Tsoba mpe abotolaki yango.
4 And he built Thoedmor in the wilderness, and all the strong cities which he built in Emath.
Kati na esobe, atongaki engumba Tadimori; mpe kati na Amati, atongaki bingumba nyonso ya kobombela biloko.
5 And he built Baethoron the upper, and Baethoron the lower, strong cities, —they had walls, gates, and bars;
Atongaki lisusu Beti-Oroni ya likolo mpe Beti-Oroni ya se lokola bingumba batonga makasi, elongo na bamir, bikuke mpe bibende oyo bakangelaka bikuke,
6 and Balaath, and all the strong cities which Solomon had, and all his chariot cities, and cities of horsemen, and all things that Solomon desired according to his desire of building, in Jerusalem, and in Libanus, and in all his kingdom.
Baalati mpe bingumba nyonso epai wapi azalaki kobomba biloko na ye, bingumba nyonso epai wapi azalaki kobomba bashar mpe bampunda na ye. Salomo atongaki lisusu nyonso oyo azalaki na yango posa kati na Yelusalemi, na Libani mpe na mokili nyonso oyo azalaki kokamba.
7 [As for] all the people that was left of the Chettites, and the Amorites, and the Pherezites, and the Evites, and the Jebusites, who are not of Israel,
Batikali nyonso kati na bato ya Iti, ya Amori, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi, ba-oyo bazalaki bana ya Isalaele te,
8 but were of the children of them whom the children Israel destroyed not, that were left after them in the land, even them did Solomon make tributaries to this day.
ba-oyo bana na bango batikalaki kati na mokili oyo bana ya Isalaele babebisaki, Salomo azwaki bango mpo na misala makasi, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
9 But Solomon did not make any of the children of Israel servants in his kingdom; for, behold, [they were] warriors and rulers, and mighty [men], and captains of chariots and horsemen.
Kasi Salomo akomisaki te bana ya Isalaele bawumbu mpo na kosala misala makasi na ye, pamba te bazalaki bato ya bitumba, bakonzi ya basoda na ye, bakonzi ya bashar na ye mpe ya basoda na ye, oyo batambolisaka bashar.
10 And these are the chiefs of the officers of king Solomon, two hundred and fifty overseeing the work amongst the people.
Ezalaki mpe na bakalaka ya lokumu oyo mokonzi Salomo atiaki mpo na kokamba basali na ye. Motango na bango ezalaki nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharao from the city of David to the house which he had built for her: for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the city of David, the king of Israel, for [the place] is holy into which the ark of the Lord has entered.
Salomo alongolaki mwana mwasi ya Faraon kati na engumba ya Davidi mpe amemaki ye na ndako oyo atongelaki ye, pamba te alobaki: « Mwasi na ngai asengeli te kovanda kati na ndako ya Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo ete bisika oyo Sanduku ya Yawe ekoti ezali bule. »
12 Then Solomon offered up to the Lord whole burnt offerings on the altar which he had built to the Lord before the temple,
Salomo abonzaki epai na Yawe bambeka ya kotumba, na etumbelo ya Yawe, oyo atongaki liboso ya ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo ya Yawe.
13 according to the daily rate, to offer up [sacrifices] according to the commandments of Moses, on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts, three times in the year, at the feast of unleavened bread, and at the feast of weeks, and at the feast of tabernacles.
Azalaki kobonza yango mokolo na mokolo, kolanda mitindo ya Moyize na tina na mikolo ya Saba, ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe ya bafeti misato oyo esalemaka mibu nyonso: feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, feti ya Baposo mpe feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
14 And he established, according to the order of his father David, the courses of the priests, and [that] according to their public ministrations: and the Levites [were appointed] over their charges, to praise and minister before the priests according to the daily order: and the porters were appointed according to their courses to the different gates: for thus [were] the commandments of David the man of God.
Kolanda mokano ya Davidi, tata na ye, Salomo atiaki masanga ya Banganga-Nzambe kati na misala na bango mpe Balevi mpo na kokumisa Yawe mpe kosunga Banganga-Nzambe ndenge ebongisamaki mpo na mokolo na mokolo. Aponaki lisusu masanga ya bakengeli bikuke mpo na ekuke moko na moko kolanda etinda oyo Davidi, moto na Nzambe, apesaki.
15 They transgressed not the commandments of the king concerning the priests and the Levites with regard to everything else, and with regard to the treasures.
Batosaki na makambo nyonso mitindo ya mokonzi mpo na oyo etali Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi, ezala mpo na oyo etali bibombelo bomengo.
16 Now all the work had been prepared from the day when the foundation was laid, until Solomon finished the house of the Lord.
Ezali boye nde misala nyonso ya Salomo esalemaki, kobanda na mokolo oyo batongaki moboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe kino na mokolo oyo esilaki. Boye, Tempelo ya Yawe esilaki kotongama.
17 Then Solomon went to Gasion Gaber, and to Aelath near the sea in the land of Idumea.
Salomo akendeki na Etsioni-Geberi mpe na Eyiloti, pembeni ya ebale monene ya Barozo, kati na mokili ya Edomi.
18 And Chiram sent by the hand of his servants ships, and servants skilled in naval affairs; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Sophira, and brought thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and they came to king Solomon.
Irami atindelaki ye, na nzela ya basali na ye, bamasuwa mpe bato oyo bayebaki kotambolisa malamu masuwa kati na ebale. Bato ya Irami batambolaki elongo na basali ya Salomo kino na Ofiri, mpe bazwaki kuna bakilo nkoto zomi na mitano ya wolo oyo bamemaki epai ya mokonzi Salomo.
