2 Chronicles 9
1 And when the Queene of Sheba heard of the fame of Salomon, she came to proue Salomon with hard questions at Ierusalem, with a very great traine, and camels that bare sweete odours and much golde, and precious stones: and when she came to Salomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.
Mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba itamva za kutchuka kwa Solomoni, inabwera mu Yerusalemu kudzamuyesa ndi mafunso okhwima. Inafika ndi gulu lalikulu la ngamira zonyamula zokometsera zakudya, golide wambiri, ndi miyala yokongola. Inafika kwa Solomoni ndipo inayankhula naye zonse zimene zinali mu mtima mwake.
2 And Salomon declared her all her questions, and there was nothing hid from Salomon, which he declared not vnto her.
Solomoni anayankha mafunso ake onse ndipo panalibe kanthu kalikonse kovuta kwa iye komwe sanathe kufotokozera mfumu yayikaziyo.
3 Then the Queene of Sheba sawe the wisedome of Salomon, and the house that he had buylt,
Mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba itaona nzeru za Solomoni komanso nyumba yaufumu imene anamanga,
4 And the meate of his table, and the sitting of his seruants, and the order of his wayters, and their apparel, and his butlers, and their apparel, and his burnt offrings which he offred in the house of the Lord, and she was greatly astonied.
chakudya cha pa tebulo pake, moyo wa antchito ake ndi zovala zawo; atumiki opereka zakumwa ndi zovala zawo ndiponso nsembe zopsereza zimene ankapereka ku Nyumba ya Yehova, inathedwa nzeru.
5 And she saide to the King, It was a true worde which I heard in mine owne lande of thy sayings, and of thy wisedome:
Iyo inati kwa mfumu, “Mbiri imene ndinamva ndili ku dziko kwathu, ya zomwe munachita komanso nzeru zanu ndi yoona.
6 Howbeit I beleeued not their report, vntil I came, and mine eyes had seene it: and beholde, the one halfe of thy great wisedom was not told me: for thou exceedest the fame that I heard.
Koma sindinakhulupirire zimene ankanena mpaka nditafika ndi kuona ndi maso anga. Kunena zoona sanandiwuze ngakhale theka lomwe la kuchuluka kwa nzeru zanu, pakuti zaposa zimene ndinamva.
7 Happie are thy men, and happie are these thy seruants, which stande before thee alway, and heare thy wisedome.
Ngodala anthu anu! Ngodala atumiki anu amene amayimirira pamaso panu nthawi zonse ndi kumamva nzeru zanu!
8 Blessed be the Lord thy God, which loued thee, to set thee on his throne as King, in the steade of the Lord thy God: because thy God loueth Israel, to establish it for euer, therefore hath he made thee King ouer them, to execute iudgement and iustice.
Atamandike Yehova Mulungu wanu amene wakondwera nanu nakukhazikani pa mpando wake waufumu kuti mulamulire mʼmalo mwa Yehova Mulungu wanu. Chifukwa cha chikondi cha Mulungu wanu pa Israeli, ndi khumbo lake kuti akusungeni mpaka muyaya, Iye wayika inu kukhala mfumu yawo kuti mulamulire moyenera ndi mwachilungamo.”
9 Then she gaue the King sixe score talents of golde, and of sweete odours exceeding much and precious stones: neither was there such sweete odours since, as the Queene of Sheba gaue vnto King Salomon.
Kenaka iyo inapereka kwa mfumu makilogalamu 4,000 a golide, zonunkhira zambirimbiri ndi miyala yokongola. Nʼkale lomwe sikunaonekenso zonunkhiritsa ngati zomwe mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba inapereka kwa mfumu Solomoni.
10 And the seruants also of Huram, and the seruants of Salomon which brought golde from Ophir, brought Algummim wood and precious stones.
(Anthu a Hiramu ndi anthu a Solomoni anabweretsa golide kuchokera ku Ofiri ndipo anabweretsanso mitengo ya mʼbawa ndi miyala yokongola.
11 And the King made of the Algummim wood staires in the house of the Lord, and in the Kings house, and harpes and violes for singers: and there was no such seene before in the lande of Iudah.
Mfumu inagwiritsa ntchito mitengo ya mʼbawa pokonzera makwerero a Nyumba ya Yehova ndi nyumba yaufumu ndiponso kupangira anthu oyimba apangwe ndi azeze. Zinthu zonga zimenezi sizinaonekeponso mu Yuda).
12 And King Salomon gaue to the Queene of Sheba euery pleasant thing that she asked, besides for that which she had brought vnto the King: so she returned and went to her owne countrey, both she, and her seruants.
Mfumu Solomoni inapereka kwa mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba zonse zimene inazifuna ndi kuzipempha ndipo Solomoni anayipatsa mfumuyo zoposa zimene iyo inabweretsa kwa Solomoni. Ndipo mfumuyo inabwerera ku dziko lake pamodzi ndi atumiki ake.
13 Also the weight of golde that came to Salomon in one yeere, was sixe hundreth three score and sixe talents of golde,
Kulemera kwa golide amene Solomoni amalandira pa chaka kunali makilogalamu 23,000,
14 Besides that which chapmen and marchants brought: and all the Kings of Arabia, and the princes of the countrey brought golde and siluer to Salomon.
osawerengera amene ankabwera ndi anthu ochita malonda ndi osinthanitsa zinthu. Komanso mafumu onse a ku Arabiya ndi abwanamkubwa a mʼdzikomo amabweretsa golide ndi siliva kwa Solomoni.
15 And King Salomon made two hundreth targets of beaten golde, and sixe hundreth shekels of beaten golde went to one target,
Mfumu Solomoni inapanga zishango zazikulu 200 zagolide wosasantha. Mʼchishango chilichonse mumalowa golide wolemera makilogalamu asanu ndi awiri.
16 And three hundreth shieldes of beaten golde: three hundreth shekels of golde went to one shielde, and the King put them in the house of the wood of Lebanon.
Iye anapanganso zishango zingʼonozingʼono 300 zagolide wosasantha ndipo chishango chilichonse chimapangidwa ndi golide wolemera makilogalamu atatu. Mfumu inayika zishangozi mʼnyumba yaufumu yotchedwa Nkhalango ya Lebanoni.
17 And the King made a great throne of yuorie and ouerlaid it with pure golde.
Ndipo mfumu inapanganso mpando waukulu waufumu wa nyanga za njovu ndipo unakutidwa ndi golide woyengeka bwino.
18 And the throne had sixe steppes, with a footestoole of gold fastened to the throne, and stayes on either side on the place of the seate, and two lyons standing by the stayes.
Mpando waufumuwo unali ndi makwerero asanu ndi limodzi ndi choyikapo mapazi cholumikizidwa ku mpandowo. Mʼmbali zonse za mpandowo munali zosanjikapo manja, ndi chifanizo cha mkango chitayima posanjikapo manjapo.
19 And twelue lyons stoode there on the sixe steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdome.
Mikango khumi ndi iwiri inayimirira pa makwerero asanu ndi imodzi aja. Umodzi mbali ina ya khwerero ndi wina mbali inayo. Palibe mpando wonga uwu umene unapangidwapo mu ufumu wina uliwonse.
20 And all King Salomons drinking vessels were of golde, and all the vessels of the house of the wood of Lebanon were of pure gold: for siluer was nothing esteemed in ye dayes of Salomon.
Zikho zonse za mfumu Solomoni zinali zagolide, ndiponso zipangizo zonse za ku nyumba yaufumu ya Nkhalango ya Lebanoni zinali zagolide oyengeka bwino. Panalibe chinthu chopangidwa ndi siliva, chifukwa siliva samayesedwa kanthu mʼnthawi ya Solomoni.
21 For the Kings ships went to Tarshish with the seruants of Huram, euery three yeere once came the ships of Tarshish, and brought golde, and siluer, yuorie, and apes, and peacockes.
Mfumu inali ndi sitima zambiri zapamadzi zimene zimayendetsedwa ndi antchito a Hiramu. Zimabwera kamodzi pa zaka zitatu zilizonse zitanyamula golide, siliva ndi nyanga za njovu, ndiponso anyani ndi apusi.
22 So King Salomon excelled all the Kings of the earth in riches and wisedome.
Mfumu Solomoni anapambana mafumu ena onse a dziko lapansi pa chuma ndi nzeru.
23 And all the Kings of the earth sought the presence of Salomon, to heare his wisedome that God had put in his heart.
Mafumu onse a dziko lapansi ankafunafuna kuonana ndi Solomoni kuti adzamve nzeru zimene Mulungu anayika mu mtima mwake.
24 And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and raiment, armour, and sweet odours, horses, and mules, from yeere to yeere.
Chaka ndi chaka, aliyense amene amabwera, amabweretsa mphatso monga zipangizo zasiliva ndi golide, mikanjo, zida zankhondo ndi zokometsera zakudya komanso akavalo ndi abulu.
25 And Salomon had foure thousand stalles of horses, and charets, and twelue thousand horsmen, whom he bestowed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
Solomoni anali ndi zipinda 4,000 zodyeramo akavalo ndi magaleta, ndi akavalo 12,000 amene amawasunga mʼmizinda yosungira magaleta ndiponso ena anali ndi iye ku Yerusalemu.
26 And he reigned ouer all the Kings from the Riuer euen vnto the land of the Philistims, and to the border of Egypt.
Iye ankalamulira mafumu onse kuyambira ku mtsinje wa Yufurate mpaka ku dziko la Afilisti, kukafika ku malire a dziko la Igupto.
27 And the King gaue siluer in Ierusalem, as stones, and gaue cedar trees as the wilde fig trees, that are aboundant in the plaine.
Mfumu inasandutsa siliva kukhala wambiri ngati miyala wamba mu Yerusalemu ndipo mikungudza kukhala yochuluka ngati mitengo ya mkuyu ya ku zigwa.
28 And they brought vnto Salomon horses out of Egypt, and out of all landes.
Solomoni ankayitanitsa akavalo ake kuchokera ku Igupto ndi mayiko ena onse.
29 Concerning the rest of the actes of Salomon first and last, are they not written in the booke of Nathan the Prophet, and in the prophecie of Ahiiah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Ieedo the Seer against Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat?
Tsono ntchito zina zonse za Solomoni, kuyambira pachiyambi mpaka kumaliza, kodi sizinalembedwa mʼbuku la mbiri la mneneri Natani, ndi mʼbuku la uneneri wa Ahiya wa ku Silo ndi mʼbuku la masomphenya a mlosi Ido, lokamba za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati?
30 And Salomon reigned in Ierusalem ouer all Israel fourtie yeeres.
Solomoni analamulira Aisraeli onse ku Yerusalemu zaka makumi anayi.
31 And Salomon slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in the citie of Dauid his father: and Rehoboam his sonne reigned in his steade.
Ndipo anamwalira nagona ndi makolo ake. Anayikidwa mʼmanda mu mzinda wa Davide abambo ake. Ndipo Rehobowamu, mwana wake, analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
