2 Chronicles 8
1 Then, twenty years having passed since Solomon built the house of the Lord and his own house,
Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh amah im a sak te kum kul a bawnnah la a pha coeng.
2 he built the cities that Hiram had given to Solomon, and he caused the sons of Israel to live there.
Te phoeiah Huram loh Solomon taengla a paek khopuei rhoek te Solomon loh a thoh tih Israel ca rhoek pahoi kho a sak sak.
3 Also, he went to Hamath Zobah, and he obtained it.
Te phoeiah Solomon loh Khamath Zobah la cet tih te te a loh.
4 And he built Palmira in the desert, and he built very fortified cities in Hamath.
Khosoek kah Tadmor te khaw, Khamath kah a sak rhuengim khopuei boeih te koep a thoh.
5 And he built upper Beth-horon and lower Beth-horon, as walled cities, having gates and bars and locks,
Thohkhaih thohkalh neh vongtung vongup kah khopuei, a so Bethhoron neh a dang Bethhoron te koep a thoh.
6 as well as Baalath, and all the very strong cities which were of Solomon, and all the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen. Everything whatsoever that Solomon willed and decided, he built in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout the entire land of his authority.
Baalath neh rhuengim khopuei boeih khaw Solomon hut la om. Leng kah khopuei boeih neh caem khopuei khaw marhang Solomon kah huengaihnah boeih te tah a Jerusalem ah khaw, Lebanon ah khaw a khohung khohmuen tom ah a kocuk bangla a sak.
7 All the people who had been left from the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, those who were not from the stock of Israel,
Khitti neh Amori, Perizzi neh Khivee, Jebusi lamkah a coih pilnam boeih, amih te Israel khui lamkah moenih.
8 those of their sons and their posterity whom the sons of Israel had not put to death, Solomon subjugated as tributaries, even to this day.
Amih koca lamkah te amih hnuk la khohmuen ah sueng uh. Amih te Israel ca rhoek a khah uh pawt dongah tahae khohnin hil Solomon taengah saldong la cet.
9 But he did not appoint anyone from the sons of Israel to serve in the works of the king. For they were men of war, and first rulers, and commanders of his chariots and horsemen.
Tedae Israel ca te tah Solomon loh amah kah bitat dongah sal la khueh pawh. Amih tah caemtloek hlang neh amah kah rhalboei mangpa rhoek, amah leng neh marhang caem kah mangpa rhoek la om uh.
10 Now all the leaders of the army of king Solomon were two hundred fifty, who were instructing the people.
Manghai Solomon kah khohung mangpa la pai tih pilnam soah aka taemrhai rhoek te yahnih sawmnga lo.
11 Truly, he transferred the daughter of Pharaoh, from the City of David, to the house that he had built for her. For the king said: “My wife shall not live in the house of David, king of Israel, for it has been sanctified. For the ark of the Lord has entered into it.”
Solomon loh Pharaoh canu tah David khopuei lamloh anih ham a sak pah im la a thak tih, “Kai yuu he Israel manghai David im ah om boel mai saeh. Te tah a khuila BOEIPA thingkawng a kun dongah cim,” a ti.
12 Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord on the altar of the Lord, which he had constructed before the portico,
Te vaengah Solomon loh ngalha hmai kah a suem BOEIPA kah hmueihtuk dongah BOEIPA ham hmueihhlutnah a khuen.
13 so that every day there would be an offering on it, in accord with the precept of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and three times a year on the feast days, that is, on the solemnity of unleavened bread, and on the solemnity of weeks, and on the solemnity of tabernacles.
Moses kah olpaek bangla a hnin hnin ah nawn hamla Sabbath ham neh hlasae ham khaw, kum khat khuikah voei thum tingtunnah ham khaw, vaidamding khotue ham khaw, yalh khat khotue ham khaw, pohlip khotue ham ol om coeng.
14 And he appointed, in accord with the plan of his father David, the offices of the priests in their ministries; and those of the Levites, in their orders, so that they might praise and minister before the priests according to the ritual of each day; and the porters, in their divisions, from gate to gate. For so had David, the man of God, instructed.
A napa David kah khosing bangla khosoih kah boelnah te amih kah thothuengnah ham, Levi khaw amamih hamsum bangla aka thangthen ham neh a hnin hnin kah olka dongah khosoih hmai kah aka thotat la, thoh tawt rhoek khaw amamih kah boelnah bangla kho vongka, vongka ah a pai sak. He tah Pathen kah hlang David kah olpaek ni.
15 Neither the priests, nor the Levites, transgressed against the commands of the king, in all that he had instructed, and in the keeping of the treasuries.
Olka cungkuem neh thakvoh kawng dongah khaw khosoih rhoek neh Levi taengkah manghai olpaek he a phaelh uh moenih.
16 Solomon had all the expenses prepared, from the day on which he founded the house of the Lord, even until the day when he perfected it.
Solomon kah bitat boeih he BOEIPA im kah tungkho a sut khohnin lamloh rhuemtuet la BOEIPA im a khah hil cung coeng.
17 Then Solomon went away to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, on the coast of the Red Sea, which is in the land of Edom.
Te vaengah Solomon te Edom khohmuen kah tuipuei tuikaeng Eziongeber neh Elath la cet.
18 And Hiram sent to him ships, by the hands of his servants, sailors and skillful navigators of the sea, and they went away with the servants of Solomon to Ophir. And they took from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and they brought it to king Solomon.
Te phoeiah Huram te a sal rhoek kut lamloh amah taengla sangpho neh a tah. Te dongah sangpho neh tuipuei aka ming a sal rhoek khaw Solomon kah sal neh Ophir la pawk uh. Te lamloh sui talent ya li sawmnga te a khuen uh tih manghai Solomon taengla pawk uh.
