Chronicles II 1
1 And Solomon the son of David was established over his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and increased him exceedingly.
Salomo, mwana mobali ya Davidi, alendisamaki makasi na bokonzi na ye, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na ye, azalaki elongo na ye mpe akomisaki ye moto monene penza.
2 And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands, and to the captains of hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the rulers over Israel, even the heads of the families;
Salomo abengisaki Isalaele mobimba: bakonzi ya bankoto ya basoda, bakonzi ya bankama ya basoda, basambisi, bakambi ya Isalaele mobimba mpe bakambi ya mabota.
3 and Solomon and all the congregation went to the high place that was in Gabaon, where was God's tabernacle of witness, which Moses the servant of the Lord made in the wilderness.
Bongo, Salomo elongo na lisanga mobimba bakendeki na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba, na Gabaoni, pamba te Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani ya Nzambe, oyo Moyize, mosali na Yawe, atelemisaki na esobe ezalaki kuna.
4 But David had brought up the ark of God out of the city of Cariathiarim; for David had prepared a place for it, for he had pitched a tabernacle for it in Jerusalem.
Nzokande, Davidi amemaki Sanduku ya Nzambe, wuta na Kiriati-Yearimi kino na esika oyo abongisaki mpo na yango, pamba te atelemisaki mpo na yango Ndako ya kapo kati na Yelusalemi.
5 And the brazen altar which Beseleel the son of Urias, the son of Or, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the Lord: and Solomon and the congregation enquired at it.
Kasi etumbelo ya bronze oyo Betisaleyeli, mwana mobali ya Uri mpe koko ya Wuri, atongaki ezalaki liboso ya Mongombo. Ezalaki kuna nde Salomo elongo na lisanga mobimba balukaki Yawe.
6 And Solomon brought [victims] there to the brazen altar that was before the Lord in the tabernacle, and offered upon it a thousand whole burnt offerings.
Salomo akendeki na etumbelo ya bronze, liboso ya Yawe kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, mpe abonzaki kuna bambeka ya kotumba nkoto moko.
7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give you.
Na butu wana, Nzambe abimelaki Salomo mpe alobaki na ye: — Senga Ngai nyonso oyo olingi ete napesa yo.
8 And Solomon said to God, You have dealt very mercifully with my father David, and have made me king in his stead.
Salomo azongiselaki Nzambe: — Otalisi bolamu monene epai ya Davidi, tata na ngai, mpe otie ngai mokonzi na esika na ye.
9 And now, O Lord God, let, I pray you, your name be established upon David my father; for you have made me king over a people numerous as the dust of the earth.
Sik’oyo, oh Yawe Nzambe, tika ete elaka oyo opesaki epai ya Davidi, tata na ngai, ekokisama! Pamba te ezali Yo nde otie ngai mokonzi ya bato oyo bazali ebele lokola putulu ya mabele.
10 Now give me wisdom and understanding, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who shall judge this your great people?
Pesa ngai bwanya mpe boyebi mpo ete nakoka kotambolisa bato oyo. Pamba te, nani akolonga kokamba ebele ya bato na Yo oyo?
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked great wealth, nor glory, nor the life of your enemies, and you have not asked long life; but have asked for yourself wisdom and understanding, that you might judge my people, over whom I have made you king:
Nzambe alobaki na Salomo: — Lokola likambo oyo ezali posa ya motema na yo; lokola osengi bozwi te, bomengo to lokumu te to mpe kufa ya banguna na yo te; lokola osengi te bomoi molayi, kasi osengi bwanya mpe boyebi mpo na kotambolisa bato na Ngai, oyo natie yo mokonzi na bango,
12 I give you this wisdom and understanding; and I will give you wealth, and riches, and glory, so that there shall not have been [any] like you among the kings before you, neither shall there be such after you.
bwanya mpe boyebi ekopesamela yo, mpe nakopesa yo lisusu bozwi, bomengo mpe lokumu oyo mokonzi moko te, liboso na yo, atikala kozwa, mpe mokonzi moko te, sima na yo, akotikala kozwa.
13 And Solomon came from the high place that was in Gabaon to Jerusalem, [from] before the tabernacle of witness, and reigned over Israel.
Bongo Salomo alongwaki na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba, na Gabaoni epai wapi akendeki liboso ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, mpe azongaki na Yelusalemi. Mpe akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele.
14 And Solomon collected chariots and horsemen: and he had fourteen hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen: and he set them in the cities of chariots, and the people [were] with the king in Jerusalem.
Salomo asangisaki bashar mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda; azalaki na bashar nkoto moko na nkama minei, mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda, nkoto zomi na mibale. Abombaki bango kati na bingumba epai wapi babombaka bashar, mpe na Yelusalemi epai wapi mokonzi azalaki kovanda.
15 And the king made silver and gold in Jerusalem [to be] as stones, and cedars in Judea as sycamores in the plain for multitude.
Mokonzi asalaki ete wolo mpe palata ekoma ebele na Yelusalemi lokola mabanga, mpe banzete ya sedele ekoma ebele lokola banzete ya sikomori oyo ezali kati na mokili ya lubwaku.
16 And Solomon imported horses from Egypt, and the charge of the king's merchants for going [was as follows], and they traded,
Bampunda ya Salomo ezalaki kowuta na Ejipito mpe na engumba Kue. Bato ya mombongo ya mokonzi nde bazalaki kosomba yango kuna na engumba Kue.
17 and went and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [pieces] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty [pieces] of silver: and so they brought for all the kings of the Chettites, and for the kings of Syria by their means.
Bazalaki kosomba na Ejipito shar moko na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkama motoba, mpe mpunda moko na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende, nkama moko na tuku mitano; bazalaki mpe kosomba yango mpo na bakonzi nyonso ya bato ya Iti mpe ya Siri.
