2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and Jehovah his God was with him and magnified him exceedingly.
Sulemaani mutabani wa Dawudi n’atebenkera ku bwakabaka bwe, kubanga Mukama Katonda we yali wamu naye, era n’amugulumiza nnyo.
2 And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the princes of all Israel, the chief fathers;
Awo Sulemaani n’ayita Isirayiri yonna, n’atumya abaduumizi b’enkumi n’ab’ebikumi, n’abalamuzi, n’abakadde bonna mu Isirayiri yonna, n’abakulembeze b’ennyumba za bajjajjaabwe.
3 and Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place at Gibeon; for there was God's tent of meeting which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness.
Sulemaani n’ekibiina kyonna ne bagenda e Gibyoni eyali ekifo ku lusozi awaali Eweema ya Katonda ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, Musa omuweereza wa Mukama gye yakuba, eyo mu ddungu.
4 But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjath-jearim to the [place] that David had prepared for it; for he had spread a tent for it at Jerusalem.
Naye Dawudi yali aggye essanduuko ya Katonda okuva e Kiriyasuyalimu, n’agitwala e Yerusaalemi gye yali agitegekedde ng’agizimbidde eweema.
5 And the brazen altar that Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of Jehovah; and Solomon and the congregation sought unto it.
Era n’ekyoto eky’ekikomo Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli kye yali azimbye, kyali eyo mu lusiisira lwa Mukama, ne Sulemaani n’ekibiina kyonna gye beebuulizanga ku Mukama.
6 And Solomon offered there upon the brazen altar before Jehovah which was at the tent of meeting; and he offered up a thousand burnt-offerings upon it.
Sulemaani n’ayambuka eri ekyoto eky’ekikomo n’alaga mu maaso ga Mukama mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu n’aweerayo ku kyoto ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa lukumi.
7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give thee.
Ekiro ekyo Katonda n’alabikira Sulemaani n’amugamba nti, “Saba kyonna ky’oyagala nkuwe.”
8 And Solomon said to God, Thou hast shewn unto David my father great loving-kindness, and hast made me king in his stead.
Sulemaani n’addamu Katonda nti, “Olazze kitange Dawudi ekisa n’okwagala kungi nnyo, n’onfuula omusika we.
9 Now, Jehovah Elohim, let thy word unto David my father be firm; for thou hast made me king over a people numerous as the dust of the earth.
Kaakano, Mukama Katonda, kye wasuubiza kitange Dawudi, nsaba kituukirizibwe, kubanga onfudde kabaka ow’eggwanga eryenkana ng’enfuufu ku nsi mu bungi bwayo.
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this thy great people?
Ompe amagezi n’okumanya, ndyoke nkulembere abantu bano; kubanga ani ayinza okufuga eggwanga lyo lino eddene bwe liti?”
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked for thyself wisdom and knowledge, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:
Katonda n’addamu Sulemaani nti, “Kubanga ekyo kibadde mu mutima gwo, n’otosaba bintu, oba obugagga, wadde ekitiibwa newaakubadde okuwangula abalabe bo, ate n’otosaba na buwangaazi, naye n’osaba amagezi n’okumanya osobole okufuga abantu bange, ggwe, nga kabaka waabwe,
12 wisdom and knowledge are granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches and wealth and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall any after thee have the like.
amagezi n’okumanya bikuweereddwa. Era nzija kukuwa obugagga, n’ebintu, n’ekitiibwa, ebitenkana ebyo bakabaka abaakusooka bye baalina, wadde abalijja ng’ovuddewo, bye balifuna.”
13 Then Solomon came back [from] the high place at Gibeon to Jerusalem, from before the tent of meeting, and reigned over Israel.
Awo Sulemaani n’ava mu maaso g’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu e Gibyoni n’addayo e Yerusaalemi. N’afuga Isirayiri.
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had a thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen; and he placed them in the chariot-cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
Sulemaani n’akuŋŋaanya amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi; n’aba n’amagaali lukumi mu bina, n’abeebagala embalaasi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, be yateeka mu bibuga eby’amagaali, ne mu Yerusaalemi gye yabeeranga.
15 And the king made silver and gold in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he as the sycamores that are in the lowland for abundance.
Kabaka n’afuula effeeza ne zaabu okuba ebyabulijjo mu Yerusaalemi, nga bingi ng’amayinja; era n’afuula n’emivule okuba emingi ng’emisukamooli mu nsenyi.
16 And the exportation of horses that Solomon had was from Egypt: a caravan of the king's merchants fetched a drove [of horses], at a price.
Embalaasi za Sulemaani zaasubulibwanga okuva e Misiri, era abasuubuzi ba kabaka be baazigulangayo.
17 And they fetched up and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; and so they brought [them] by their means, for all the kings of the Hittites and for the kings of Syria.
Eggaali baagisuubulanga kilo musanvu eza ffeeza, embalaasi ne bagisuubulanga kilo emu ne desimoolo musanvu eza ffeeza okuva e Misiri. Ate era baazitunzanga ne bakabaka bonna ab’Abakiiti ne bakabaka ab’e Busuuli.
