< 2 Chronicles 1 >
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him to a high degree.
Solomọn nwa Devid mere onwe ya ka o guzosie ike nʼalaeze ya, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya nọnyeere ya, meekwa ka ọ dị ukwuu hie nne.
2 And Solomon gave orders to all Israel, to the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, and to the rulers, and to the judges of all Israel, and the heads of the families:
Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn gwara ndị Izrel niile okwu, ya bụ, ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, na ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ narị ndị agha, na ndị ikpe, na ndị ndu niile nọ nʼIzrel, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ niile.
3 And he went with all the multitude to the high place of Gabaon, where was the tabernacle of the covenant of the Lord, which Moses the servant of God made, in the wilderness.
Solomọn ya na ọgbakọ ahụ niile, gara nʼebe dị elu nke Gibiọn, nʼihi nʼebe ahụ ka ụlọ nzute Chineke dị, bụ nke Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị wuru nʼọzara.
4 For David had brought the ark of God from Cariathiarim to the place, which he had prepared for it, and where he had pitched a tabernacle for it, that is, in Jerusalem.
Ma Devid esitelarị na Kiriat Jearim buputa igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ, bulaa ya nʼụlọ ikwu nke o wuru maka ya na Jerusalem.
5 And the altar of brass, which Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur had made, was there before the tabernacle of the Lord: and Solomon and all the assembly sought it:
Ebe ịchụ aja bronz ahụ Bezalel nwa Uri, nwa Hua wuru dịkwa na Gibiọn, nʼihu ụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị. Solomọn na ọgbakọ ahụ na-ajụta ya ase nʼebe bronz ahụ.
6 And Solomon went up thither to the brazen altar, before the tabernacle of the covenant of the Lord, and offered up on it a thousand victims.
Solomọn jere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ e ji bronz kpụọ, nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼime ụlọ nzute, jiri anụ ụlọ ọnụọgụgụ ha dị otu puku chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nʼelu ya.
7 And behold that night God appeared to him, saying: Ask what thou wilt that I should give thee.
Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ na Gibiọn, Onyenwe anyị mere ka Solomọn hụ ya anya, sị ya, “Rịọọ ihe ọbụla ị chọrọ ka m nye gị.”
8 And Solomon said to God: Thou hast shewn great kindness to my father David: and hast made me king in his stead.
Ma Solomọn zara Chineke, sị, “I gosila nna m bụ Devid obi ebere dị ukwuu. Ugbu a, i meekwala m eze nʼọnọdụ ya
9 Now therefore, O Lord God, let thy word be fulfilled, which thou hast promised to David my father: for thou hast made me king over thy great people, which is as innumerable as the dust of the earth.
Ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke, ka nkwa gị nke i kwere nna m, bụ Devid, bụrụ ihe e mezuru, nʼihi na ị meela m eze ndị a bara ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ dịka aja nke ala.
10 Give me wisdom and knowledge that I may come in and go out before thy people: for who can worthily judge this thy people, which is so great?
Biko, nye m amamihe na nghọta, nke m ga-eji edu ndị a napụ na-abata, nʼihi na onye pụrụ ịchịkọta ndị gị a dị ukwuu?”
11 And God said to Solomon: Because this choice hath pleased thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, and wealth, and glory, nor the lives of them that hate thee, nor many days of life: but hast asked wisdom and knowledge, to be able to judge my people, over which I have made thee king,
Chineke zara Solomọn sị ya, “Ebe ọ bụ na ị rịọghị m ka m nye gị akụnụba, maọbụ ogologo ndụ; ebe ọ bụkwa na ị rịọghị m ka m mee ka ndị kpọrọ gị asị nwụsịa, maọbụ ka m mee ka i nwee nsọpụrụ karịa, kama mkpa na-akpa gị bụ ka m nye gị amamihe na nghọta ị ga-eji duzie ndị m, nke m mere gị eze ha.
12 Wisdom and knowledge are granted to thee: and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and glory, so that none of the kings before thee, nor after thee, shall be like thee.
Ya mere, enyela gị amamihe na nghọta dịka ị rịọrọ. Aga m enyekwa gị akụnụba na nsọpụrụ dị ukwuu, nke eze ọbụla nke buru gị ụzọ na-enwebeghị. Ọ dịkwaghị onye nke ga-eso gị ga-enwe ụdị ya.”
13 Then Solomon came from the high place of Gabaon to Jerusalem before the tabernacle of the covenant, and reigned over Israel.
Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn sitere nʼebe dị elu nke Gibiọn, site nʼihu ụlọ nzute ahụ, lọghachi na Jerusalem. Ọ chịrị dịka eze nʼIzrel.
14 And he gathered to himself chariots and horsemen, and he had a thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen: and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem.
Solomọn chịkọbara ọtụtụ ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya dị iche iche. O nwere ụgbọ agha dị otu puku na narị anọ na ịnyịnya agha dị puku iri na abụọ nʼọnụọgụgụ, ndị o debere ụfọdụ nʼime ha nʼobodo ụgbọ agha ya ma ndị ọzọ dị na Jerusalem ebe ya onwe ya nọ.
15 And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar trees as sycamores, which grow in the plains in great multitude.
Eze mere ka ọlaọcha na ọlaedo baa ụba na Jerusalem, dịka nkume efu. O mekwara ka osisi sida dị ọtụtụ dịka osisi sikamọ nke dị nʼala ala ugwu dị iche iche
16 And there were horses brought him from Egypt, and from Coa by the king’s merchants, who went, and bought at a price,
A na-esite nʼIjipt nakwa ala Kue atụbatara Solomọn ịnyịnya. Ndị ahịa eze na-azụta ha site na Kue nʼọnụ ahịa a na-ere ha nʼoge ahụ.
17 A chariot of four horses for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: in like manner market was made in all the kingdoms of the Hethites, and of the kings of Syria.
Ha sitere nʼIjipt tụbata otu ụgbọ agha nʼọnụ ahịa narị shekel ọlaọcha isii; jirikwa otu narị shekel na iri shekel ise zụta otu ịnyịnya. Ha zipụkwara ha nye ndị eze niile nke ndị Het na ndị Aram.
