2 Chronicles 8
1 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the house of Jehovah and his own house,
Patatha zaka makumi awiri, ndiye nthawi imene Solomoni anamanga Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi nyumba yake yaufumu,
2 that the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
Solomoni anamanganso midzi imene anapatsidwa ndi Hiramu, ndipo anakhazikamo Aisraeli.
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-Zobah, and overcame it.
Kenaka Solomoni anapita kukalanda Hamati-zoba.
4 And he built Tadmor, in the wilderness, and all the store-cities, which he built in Hamath.
Iye anamanganso Tadimori ku chipululu ndi mizinda yonse yosungiramo chuma, imene anayimanga ku Hamati.
5 And he built upper Beth-Horon and lower Beth-Horon, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
Anamanganso Beti-Horoni Wakumtunda ndi Beti-Horoni Wakumunsi, mizinda yotetezedwa yokhala ndi makoma, zitseko ndi zitsulo zotchingira,
6 and Baalath, and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for chariots, and the cities for the horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and on Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
pamodzinso ndi Baalati ndi mizinda yake yonse yosungira chuma, ndiponso mizinda yonse yosungiramo magaleta ake ndi akavalo ndi chilichonse anafuna kumanga ku Yerusalemu, ku Lebanoni ndi ku madera onse amene iye ankalamulira.
7 All the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel,
Panali anthu amene anatsala pakati pa mitundu ya Ahiti, Aamori, Aperezi, Ahivi ndi Ayebusi (anthu awa sanali Aisraeli).
8 their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel had not destroyed, upon them did Solomon impose tribute-service until this day.
Zimenezi ndiye zinali zidzukulu zawo zotsalira mʼdzikoli, anthu amene Aisraeli sanathe kuwawononga kotheratu. Solomoni anawatenga ndi kukhala akapolo ake ogwira ntchito yathangata, monga zilili mpaka lero lino.
9 But of the children of Israel, of them did Solomon make no bondmen for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and his horsemen.
Koma Solomoni sanagwiritse ntchito ya ukapolo Aisraeli; Iwo anali anthu ake ankhondo, atsogoleri a ankhondo, olamulira magaleta ndi oyendetsa magaleta ake.
10 And these were the chief of king Solomon's superintendents, two hundred and fifty, that ruled over the people.
Amenewa ndiwo anali akuluakulu oyangʼanira ntchito za mfumu Solomoni. Onse amene ankayangʼanira anthu analipo 250.
11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David to the house which he had built for her; for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the [places] are holy to which the ark of Jehovah has come.
Solomoni anabweretsa mwana wamkazi wa Farao mu mzinda wa Davide ku nyumba yaufumu yomwe anamumangira, pakuti iye anati, “Mkazi wanga asakhale mʼnyumba yaufumu ya Davide mfumu ya Israeli, chifukwa malo amene Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova lafikira ndi opatulika.”
12 Then Solomon offered up burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the altar of Jehovah, which he had built before the porch;
Solomoni anapereka nsembe zopsereza pa guwa lansembe la Yehova limene anamanga patsogolo pa khonde la polowera,
13 even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and at the set feasts, three times in the year, — at the feast of unleavened bread, and at the feast of weeks, and at the feast of tabernacles.
monga momwe zinkafunikira pa tsiku lililonse. Ankapereka nsembezo potsata malamulo a Mose okhudza chikondwerero cha Masabata, chikondwerero cha Mwezi Watsopano ndi zikondwerero zitatu za pa chaka: Chikondwerero cha Buledi Wopanda yisiti, Chikondwerero cha Masabata ndi Chikondwerero cha Misasa.
14 And he appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests for their service, and the Levites for their charges, to praise and serve before the priests, as the duty of every day required; and the doorkeepers by their divisions at every gate: for such was the commandment of David the man of God;
Potsata malangizo a Davide abambo ake, iye anayika ansembe mʼmagulumagulu monga mwa ntchito zawo ndipo anayika Alevi kukhala otsogolera matamando ndi kuthandiza ansembe pa zofunika pa tsiku lililonse. Iye anasankhanso magulumagulu a alonda a pa zipata zosiyanasiyana, chifukwa izi ndi zimene munthu wa Mulungu, Davide analamula.
15 and they did not depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and the Levites concerning any matter, nor concerning the treasures.
Anthu sanapatukepo pa zimene mfumu inalamula ansembe kapena Alevi pa china chilichonse, kuphatikiza za chuma.
16 And all the work of Solomon was prepared, to the day of the foundation of the house of Jehovah and to its completion. [So] the house of Jehovah was finished.
Ntchito yonse ya Solomoni inachitika kuyambira tsiku limene maziko a Nyumba ya Mulungu anakhazikitsidwa mpaka kumaliza. Kotero Nyumba ya Yehova inamalizidwa.
17 Then went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
Kenaka Solomoni anapita ku Ezioni-Geberi ndi Eloti, mʼmbali mwa nyanja ku Edomu.
18 And Huram sent him by his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and fetched thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
Ndipo Hiramu anatumiza sitima zapamadzi zoyendetsedwa ndi antchito ake, antchito amene ankayidziwa bwino nyanja. Awa pamodzi ndi anthu a Solomoni, anayenda pa madzi kupita ku Ofiri ndipo anakatengako golide olemera makilogalamu 18,000 amene anabwera naye kwa mfumu Solomoni.
