2 Chronicles 1
1 Then Salomon the sonne of Dauid was confirmed in his kingdome: and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him highly.
Salomon, pitit gason wa David la, chita otorite gouvènman l'. Seyè a, Bondye li a, te kanpe la avè l', li te ba li anpil pouvwa.
2 And Salomon spake vnto all Israel, to the captaines of thousandes, and of hundreths, and to the iudges, and to all the gouernours in all Israel, euen the chiefe fathers.
Wa Salomon fè rele tout pèp Izrayèl la, kòmandan rejiman mil sòlda yo, kòmandan divizyon san sòlda yo, jij yo, tout anplwaye gouvènman an ak tout chèf fanmi yo.
3 So Salomon and all the Congregation with him went to the hie place that was at Gibeon: for there was the Tabernacle of the Congregation of God which Moses the seruant of the Lord had made in the wildernesse.
Li ba yo lòd pou yo ale avè l' kote yo fè sèvis pou Bondye lavil Gabawon an, paske se la Tanp Randevou Bondye a te ye, tant Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te fè lè yo te nan dezè a.
4 But the Arke of God had Dauid brought vp from Kiriath-iearim, when Dauid had made preparation for it: for he had pitched a tent for it in Ierusalem.
Men, David te fè yo pran Bwat Kontra a lavil Kiriyat-Jearim pou yo pote l' moute lavil Jerizalèm. Depi lè sa a, li te anba yon tant wa David te fè pou li.
5 Moreouer the brasen altar that Bezaleel the sonne of Vri, the sonne of Hur had made, did hee set before the Tabernacle of the Lord: and Salomon and the Congregation sought it.
Gwo lotèl kwiv Bezaleyèl, pitit Ouri, pitit pitit Our la, te fè a te lavil Gabawon tou devan Tant Randevou Seyè a. Se la wa Salomon ak tout pèp la vin pale ak Seyè a.
6 And Salomon offred there before the Lord vpon the brasen altar that was in the Tabernacle of the Congregation: euen a thousand burnt offrings offred he vpon it.
Devan Tant Randevou Seyè a, Salomon moute sou lotèl kwiv la, li touye mil bèt li fè boule nèt sou lotèl la.
7 The same night did God appeare vnto Salomon, and sayde vnto him, Aske what I shall giue thee.
Jou lannwit sa a, Bondye parèt devan Salomon, li di l' konsa: -Mande m' sa ou vle, m'ap ba ou li.
8 And Salomon sayde vnto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy vnto Dauid my father and hast made me to reigne in his stead.
Salomon reponn li: -Ou te toujou moutre jan ou te renmen David, papa m', sèvitè ou la, anpil. Koulye a, se mwen menm ou mete nan plas li pou gouvènen.
9 Nowe therefore, O Lord God, let thy promise vnto Dauid my father be true: for thou hast made mee King ouer a great people, like to the dust of the earth.
O Seyè, Bondye, kenbe pwomès ou te fè papa m' lan! Ou mete m' wa pou m' gouvènen yon pèp ki gen anpil anpil moun ladan l'. Yo pi plis pase grenn pousyè tè.
10 Giue me now wisdome and knowledge, that I may go out and go in before this people: for who can iudge this thy great people?
Se poutèt sa, ban mwen konesans ak bon konprann pou m' ka gouvènen pèp sa a. Si se pa sa, mwen pa wè ki jan m'a fè pou m' gouvènen pèp ou a ak tout moun sa yo ladan l'.
11 And God sayde to Salomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, treasures nor honour, nor the liues of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life, but hast asked for thee wisdome and knowledge that thou mightest iudge my people, ouer whome I haue made thee King,
Bondye reponn Salomon: -Depi se sa ou wè ou ta renmen genyen! Ou pa mande m' ni richès, ni byen, ni lwanj pou ou. Ou pa mande m' lanmò pou lènmi ou yo, ni ou pa mande m' pou ou sa viv lontan. Ou annik mande m' konesans ak bon konprann pou ou ka kondi pèp mwen an, pèp mwen mete ou gouvènen an.
12 Wisdome and knowledge is granted vnto thee, and I will giue thee riches and treasures and honour, so that there hath not bene the like among the Kings which were before thee, neither after thee shall there be the like.
M'ap ba ou konesans ak bon konprann. Men an plis, m'ap ba ou richès, byen ak lwanj pase tout wa ki te la anvan ou, pase tout wa ki va vin apre ou.
13 Then Salomon came from the hie place, that was at Gibeon, to Ierusalem from before the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and reigned ouer Israel.
Apre sa, Salomon kite kote yo konn fè sèvis pou Bondye lavil Gabawon an, kote Tant Randevou a te ye a, li tounen lavil Jerizalèm. Se la li gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
14 And Salomon gathered the charets and horesemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome he placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
Li te sanble milkatsan (1.400) cha lagè ak douzmil (12.000) chwal pou sòlda kavalye li yo. Li mete yon pòsyon ladan yo nan lavil li te fè bati espre pou yo. Rès yo, li mete yo toupre l' lavil Jerizalèm.
15 And the King gaue siluer and gold at Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedar trees as the wilde figge trees, that are abundantly in the playne.
Pandan tout rèy li, ajan ak lò te tankou wòch lavil Jerizalèm. Bwa sèd menm, ou te jwenn sa an kantite tankou pye sikomò nan rakbwa ki nan plenn peyi Jida yo.
16 Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the fine linen for a price.
Chwal Salomon yo te soti nan peyi Moukri ak nan peyi Silisi. Wa a te gen moun pa l' ki te konn al achte chwal yo la pou li.
17 They came vp also and brought out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer, that is an horse for an hundreth and fiftie: and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites, and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
Chak cha lagè yo te achte nan peyi Lejip te koute sisan (600) pyès ajan, chak chwal te koute sansenkant (150) pyès ajan. Se menm moun sa yo ki te konn al achte pou revann wa peyi Et yo ak wa peyi Siri yo.
