1 Kings 9
1 And it came to pass when Solomon had completed the building of the house of Jehovah, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do,
Mgbe Solomọn rụchara ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na ụlọeze, rụzukwaa ihe niile bụ nke o bu nʼobi ime,
2 that Jehovah appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka ọ hụ ya anya nke ugboro abụọ dịka o mere ka ọ hụ ya anya na Gibiọn.
3 And Jehovah said to him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication which thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị ya, “Anụla m ekpere gị, na arịrịọ gị, nke ị rịọrọ nʼihu m. Edoola m ụlọnsọ a nke i wuru nsọ, site nʼitinye Aha m nʼebe ahụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Anya m na obi m abụọ ga-adịkwa nʼebe ahụ ụbọchị niile.
4 And [as for] thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, [and] wilt keep my statutes and mine ordinances;
“Ma gị onwe gị, ọ bụrụ na ị jiri obi zuruoke na omume ziri ezi, bie ndụ nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi nʼihu m dịka Devid nna gị mere, na-eme ihe niile m nyere nʼiwu, debe ụkpụrụ m na iwu m niile,
5 then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
mgbe ahụ, aga m eme ka ocheeze ọchịchị gị nʼIzrel guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, dịka m kwere nna gị Devid nkwa, mgbe m sịrị, ‘Ị ghaghị inwe onye nnọchite anya nʼocheeze Izrel.’
6 [But] if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments, my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them;
“Ma ọ bụrụ na unu, maọbụ ụmụ ụmụ unu alaghachi azụ, site nʼebe m nọ, jụ idebe iwu na ụkpụrụ niile bụ nke m nyere unu, pụọ gbasoro chi ndị ọzọ ife ha ofufe na ịkpọ isiala nye ha,
7 then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and the house, which I have hallowed to my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a by word among all peoples;
mgbe ahụ, aga m esite nʼala ahụ nke m nyere ha wezuga Izrel. Aga m ajụkwa ụlọnsọ a m doro nsọ nye Aha m. Izrel ga-aghọ ihe eji atụ ilu na ihe ịkpa ọchị nʼetiti ndị niile.
8 and this house, [which] is high, every one that passes by it shall be astonished at, and shall hiss, and they shall say, Why has Jehovah done thus to this land and to this house?
Ọ bụ ezie na ụlọnsọ ukwu a kachasị elu ugbu a, ma ọnọdụ ya ga-eju ndị niile ga-esi nʼakụkụ ya gafee anya. Ha ga-emi ọnụ, sị, ‘Gịnị mere Onyenwe anyị ji mee ala a na ụlọnsọ a, ihe dị otu a?’
9 And they shall say, Because they forsook Jehovah their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have attached themselves to other gods, and have worshipped them and served them; therefore has Jehovah brought upon them all this evil.
Ndị mmadụ ga-aza, ‘Nʼihi na ha gbakụtara Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha azụ, onye kpọpụtara ha site nʼala Ijipt azụ, makụọ chi ndị ọzọ, na-akpọ isiala na-efekwa ha ofufe. Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka O ji mee ka ihe ọjọọ niile ndị a bịakwasị ha.’”
10 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of Jehovah and the king's house,
Nʼọgwụgwụ iri afọ abụọ, mgbe Solomọn ji wuo ụlọ abụọ ndị a, ya bụ ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị na ụlọeze.
11 Hiram the king of Tyre having furnished Solomon with cedar-trees and cypress-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire, — that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
Eze Solomọn nyere Hiram, eze Taịa, iri obodo abụọ dị na Galili, nʼihi osisi sida, na osisi junipa, na ọlaedo niile Hiram butere ya dịka o si chọọ ya.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him; and they did not please him.
Ma mgbe Hiram si Taịa gaa ịhụ obodo ndị a nke Solomọn nyere ya, ha amasịghị obi ya.
13 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul to this day.
Ya mere, ọ jụrụ sị, “Nwanne m nwoke, ụdị obodo dị aṅaa bụ ihe a i nyere m?” Nʼihi ya, ọ kpọrọ ha Kabul, aha ọ na-aza ruo taa.
14 And Hiram had sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.
Hiram zigaara eze ọlaedo dị puku kilogram anọ na iri asatọ.
15 And this is the account of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of Jehovah, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Nke a bụ akụkọ banyere ndị ọrụ mmanye niile eze bụ Solomọn chịkọtara maka ịrụ ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na ụlọeze nke ya, na ebe e wusiri ike nke Milo, na mgbidi Jerusalem, Hazọ, Megido nakwa Gaza.
16 — Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and taken Gezer, and burned it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon's wife.
Fero eze Ijipt buru agha na mbụ merie Gaza, kpọọ ya ọkụ, gbukwaa ọtụtụ ndị Kenan bi nʼobodo ahụ, were ya nye nwa ya nwanyị, bụ nwunye Solomọn, ka ọ bụrụ ihe o ji duo ya ụlọ.
17 — And Solomon built Gezer, and lower Beth-horon,
Solomọn wugharịrị obodo Gaza, wuokwa ndịda Bet-Horon,
18 and Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
Baalat na Tadmọ nke dị nʼọzara nʼime ala ya.
19 and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and cities for chariots, and cities for the horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and on Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
O wukwara ọtụtụ obodo ebe nchịkọba ihe, obodo ebe idebe ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya ya niile. O wuru ihe ọbụla gụrụ obi ya agụụ iwu na Jerusalem, Lebanọn na nʼoke ala ahụ niile ọ na-achị.
20 All the people that were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel,
Ndị niile fọdụrụ ndụ nʼetiti ndị Amọrait, ndị Het, ndị Periz, ndị Hiv na Jebus (ndị ahụ abụghị ndị Izrel),
21 their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, upon them did Solomon impose a tribute of bondservice until this day.
ndị ụmụ ụmụ ha niile fọdụrụ nʼala ahụ, ndị ahụ ndị Izrel na-enweghị ike egbuchapụ, ndị a ka Solomọn mere ndị ọrụ mmanye na ndị ohu, nke a bụkwa ọnọdụ ha ruo taa.
22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen; but they were men of war, and his servants, and his chiefs, and his captains, and captains of his chariots, and his horsemen.
Ma Solomọn emeghị ka onye Izrel ọbụla bụrụ ohu. Kama ha bụ ndị ikom agha, ndịisi ọrụ nʼọchịchị, ndịisi ndị ọchịagha, ndịisi ụgbọ agha na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya agha ya.
23 These were the chief superintendents that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, that ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
Ndị a bụkwa ndịisi na-ahụ ihe banyere ọrụ niile nke Solomọn ji nʼaka. Ndị Izrel dị narị ise na iri ise, ka e mere ndịisi na-elekọta ndị ọrụ Solomọn.
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David to her house which he had built for her: then he built Millo.
Emesịa, ada Fero sitere nʼobodo Devid pụta gbagoo nʼụlọeze nke Solomọn wuuru ya. Solomọn wukwara ebe mpụta nke ụlọ ahụ.
25 And three times in the year did Solomon offer up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings upon the altar that he had built to Jehovah, and he burned incense upon that which was before Jehovah. So he finished the house.
Ugboro atọ nʼafọ, ka Solomọn na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ, na aja udo nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja o wuru nye Onyenwe anyị, tinyere aja nsure ọkụ ihe na-esi isi ụtọ ọ na-achụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. O si otu a wuchaa ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
26 And king Solomon made a fleet of ships in Ezion-Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Eze Solomọn wukwara ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri nʼEziọn Geba, bụ nke dị nʼakụkụ Elat, nʼọnụ mmiri Oke osimiri Uhie nʼala Edọm.
27 And Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon;
Hiram zigaara ndị ikom ya na-anya ụgbọ, ndị maara ihe banyere ime njem osimiri nke ọma, ka ha soro ndị ikom Solomọn jee ozi nʼime ụgbọ ndị a.
28 and they went to Ophir, and fetched thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
Ha nyaara ụgbọ gaa Ọfịa, site nʼebe ahụ bulatara eze Solomọn ọlaedo nke ịdị arọ ya ruru puku kilogram iri na anọ na narị abụọ na asatọ.
