< 1 Kings 9 >
1 It happened, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do,
Mgbe Solomọn rụchara ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na ụlọeze, rụzukwaa ihe niile bụ nke o bu nʼobi ime,
2 that the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka ọ hụ ya anya nke ugboro abụọ dịka o mere ka ọ hụ ya anya na Gibiọn.
3 And the LORD said to him, "I have heard your prayer and your petition that you have made before me. I have done for you according to all your prayer. I have consecrated this house which you have built, to place my name there forever, and my eyes and my heart will be there perpetually.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị ya, “Anụla m ekpere gị, na arịrịọ gị, nke ị rịọrọ nʼihu m. Edoola m ụlọnsọ a nke i wuru nsọ, site nʼitinye Aha m nʼebe ahụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Anya m na obi m abụọ ga-adịkwa nʼebe ahụ ụbọchị niile.
4 As for you, if you will walk before me, as David your father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances;
“Ma gị onwe gị, ọ bụrụ na ị jiri obi zuruoke na omume ziri ezi, bie ndụ nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi nʼihu m dịka Devid nna gị mere, na-eme ihe niile m nyere nʼiwu, debe ụkpụrụ m na iwu m niile,
5 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, according as I promised to David your father, saying, 'There shall not fail you a man on the throne of Israel.'
mgbe ahụ, aga m eme ka ocheeze ọchịchị gị nʼIzrel guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, dịka m kwere nna gị Devid nkwa, mgbe m sịrị, ‘Ị ghaghị inwe onye nnọchite anya nʼocheeze Izrel.’
6 But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
“Ma ọ bụrụ na unu, maọbụ ụmụ ụmụ unu alaghachi azụ, site nʼebe m nọ, jụ idebe iwu na ụkpụrụ niile bụ nke m nyere unu, pụọ gbasoro chi ndị ọzọ ife ha ofufe na ịkpọ isiala nye ha,
7 then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
mgbe ahụ, aga m esite nʼala ahụ nke m nyere ha wezuga Izrel. Aga m ajụkwa ụlọnsọ a m doro nsọ nye Aha m. Izrel ga-aghọ ihe eji atụ ilu na ihe ịkpa ọchị nʼetiti ndị niile.
8 And this house, which is exalted, will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will whistle, and they will say, 'Why has the LORD done this to this land, and to this house?'
Ọ bụ ezie na ụlọnsọ ukwu a kachasị elu ugbu a, ma ọnọdụ ya ga-eju ndị niile ga-esi nʼakụkụ ya gafee anya. Ha ga-emi ọnụ, sị, ‘Gịnị mere Onyenwe anyị ji mee ala a na ụlọnsọ a, ihe dị otu a?’
9 And they shall answer, 'Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and worshiped them, and served them. Therefore the LORD has brought all this disaster on them.'"
Ndị mmadụ ga-aza, ‘Nʼihi na ha gbakụtara Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha azụ, onye kpọpụtara ha site nʼala Ijipt azụ, makụọ chi ndị ọzọ, na-akpọ isiala na-efekwa ha ofufe. Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka O ji mee ka ihe ọjọọ niile ndị a bịakwasị ha.’”
10 It happened at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house
Nʼọgwụgwụ iri afọ abụọ, mgbe Solomọn ji wuo ụlọ abụọ ndị a, ya bụ ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị na ụlọeze.
11 (now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
Eze Solomọn nyere Hiram, eze Taịa, iri obodo abụọ dị na Galili, nʼihi osisi sida, na osisi junipa, na ọlaedo niile Hiram butere ya dịka o si chọọ ya.
12 Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they did not please him.
Ma mgbe Hiram si Taịa gaa ịhụ obodo ndị a nke Solomọn nyere ya, ha amasịghị obi ya.
13 He said, "What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?" He called them the land of Cabul to this day.
Ya mere, ọ jụrụ sị, “Nwanne m nwoke, ụdị obodo dị aṅaa bụ ihe a i nyere m?” Nʼihi ya, ọ kpọrọ ha Kabul, aha ọ na-aza ruo taa.
14 Hiram sent to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold.
Hiram zigaara eze ọlaedo dị puku kilogram anọ na iri asatọ.
15 This is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Nke a bụ akụkọ banyere ndị ọrụ mmanye niile eze bụ Solomọn chịkọtara maka ịrụ ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na ụlọeze nke ya, na ebe e wusiri ike nke Milo, na mgbidi Jerusalem, Hazọ, Megido nakwa Gaza.
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a portion to his daughter, Solomon's wife.
Fero eze Ijipt buru agha na mbụ merie Gaza, kpọọ ya ọkụ, gbukwaa ọtụtụ ndị Kenan bi nʼobodo ahụ, were ya nye nwa ya nwanyị, bụ nwunye Solomọn, ka ọ bụrụ ihe o ji duo ya ụlọ.
17 Solomon built Gezer, and Lower Beth Horon,
Solomọn wugharịrị obodo Gaza, wuokwa ndịda Bet-Horon,
18 and Baalath, and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land,
Baalat na Tadmọ nke dị nʼọzara nʼime ala ya.
19 and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
O wukwara ọtụtụ obodo ebe nchịkọba ihe, obodo ebe idebe ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya ya niile. O wuru ihe ọbụla gụrụ obi ya agụụ iwu na Jerusalem, Lebanọn na nʼoke ala ahụ niile ọ na-achị.
20 As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hethites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel;
Ndị niile fọdụrụ ndụ nʼetiti ndị Amọrait, ndị Het, ndị Periz, ndị Hiv na Jebus (ndị ahụ abụghị ndị Izrel),
21 their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, of them Solomon conscripted for slave labor to this day.
ndị ụmụ ụmụ ha niile fọdụrụ nʼala ahụ, ndị ahụ ndị Izrel na-enweghị ike egbuchapụ, ndị a ka Solomọn mere ndị ọrụ mmanye na ndị ohu, nke a bụkwa ọnọdụ ha ruo taa.
22 But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his commanders, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
Ma Solomọn emeghị ka onye Izrel ọbụla bụrụ ohu. Kama ha bụ ndị ikom agha, ndịisi ọrụ nʼọchịchị, ndịisi ndị ọchịagha, ndịisi ụgbọ agha na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya agha ya.
23 These were the chief officers who were over Solomon's work, five hundred fifty, who bore rule over the people who labored in the work.
Ndị a bụkwa ndịisi na-ahụ ihe banyere ọrụ niile nke Solomọn ji nʼaka. Ndị Izrel dị narị ise na iri ise, ka e mere ndịisi na-elekọta ndị ọrụ Solomọn.
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the City of David to her house which Solomon had built for her: then he built Millo.
Emesịa, ada Fero sitere nʼobodo Devid pụta gbagoo nʼụlọeze nke Solomọn wuuru ya. Solomọn wukwara ebe mpụta nke ụlọ ahụ.
25 Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD three times a year, burning incense with them, on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.
Ugboro atọ nʼafọ, ka Solomọn na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ, na aja udo nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja o wuru nye Onyenwe anyị, tinyere aja nsure ọkụ ihe na-esi isi ụtọ ọ na-achụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. O si otu a wuchaa ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
26 King Solomon also had a fleet of ships at Ezion Geber, which is near Eilat on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Eze Solomọn wukwara ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri nʼEziọn Geba, bụ nke dị nʼakụkụ Elat, nʼọnụ mmiri Oke osimiri Uhie nʼala Edọm.
27 Hiram sent in the navy his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
Hiram zigaara ndị ikom ya na-anya ụgbọ, ndị maara ihe banyere ime njem osimiri nke ọma, ka ha soro ndị ikom Solomọn jee ozi nʼime ụgbọ ndị a.
28 They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
Ha nyaara ụgbọ gaa Ọfịa, site nʼebe ahụ bulatara eze Solomọn ọlaedo nke ịdị arọ ya ruru puku kilogram iri na anọ na narị abụọ na asatọ.
