2 Chronicles 8
1 It happened at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the house of YHWH, and his own house,
Thuutha wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, ihinda rĩrĩa Solomoni aahũthĩrire gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova o na nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki-rĩ,
2 that the cities which Hiram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
Solomoni nĩaakire rĩngĩ matũũra marĩa aaheetwo nĩ Hiramu, na akĩmahe andũ a Isiraeli matũũre thĩinĩ wamo.
3 Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
Solomoni agĩcooka agĩthiĩ Hamathu-Zoba na akĩrĩtaha.
4 He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩaka Tadimori kũu werũ-inĩ na matũũra manene mothe marĩa aakĩte kũu Hamathu ma kũigwo indo.
5 Also he built Upper Beth Horon, and Lower Beth Horon, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
Nĩaakire Bethi-Horoni ya Mwena wa Igũrũ, na Bethi-Horoni ya Mwena wa Mũhuro rĩngĩ, marĩ matũũra manene mairige, marĩ na thingo, na ihingo, na mĩgĩĩko ya igera,
6 and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
o ũndũ ũmwe na Baalathu, na matũũra make mothe manene ma kũiga indo, na matũũra make mothe manene ma ngaari cia mbaara na mbarathi ciake, na agĩaka kĩrĩa gĩothe eerirĩirie kũu Jerusalemu, na Lebanoni, o na kũndũ guothe bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩa aathanaga.
7 As for all the people who were left of the Hethites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel;
Andũ othe arĩa maatigaire kuuma kũrĩ Ahiti, na Aamori, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi (nao andũ acio matiarĩ Aisiraeli),
8 of their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel did not destroy, of them Solomon conscripted for slave labor to this day.
ũguo nĩ kuuga atĩ, njiaro ciao iria ciatigarĩte bũrũri-inĩ, iria andũ a Isiraeli mataaninĩte, acio nĩo maandĩkithirio nĩ Solomoni matuĩke ngombo ciake cia kũrutithio wĩra na hinya, na noguo gũtũire nginya ũmũthĩ.
9 But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no slaves for his work; but they were men of war, and his commanders, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
No Solomoni ndaatuire andũ a Isiraeli ngombo cia wĩra wake; acio nĩo maarĩ andũ ake a kũrũa mbaara, o na aathi a anene ake, na aathi a ngaari ciake cia ita, na atwari a ngaari icio.
10 These were the chief officers of king Solomon: five hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
O na ningĩ no-o maarĩ atongoria anene a Mũthamaki Solomoni, maarĩ anene 250 a kũrũgamĩrĩra andũ acio.
11 Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the City of David to the house that he had built for her; for he said, "My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where the ark of YHWH has come are holy."
Solomoni akĩruta mwarĩ wa Firaũni kuuma Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, akĩmũrehe nyũmba ya ũthamaki ĩrĩa aamwakĩire, tondũ oigire atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia wakwa ndangĩtũũra nyũmba ya Mũthamaki Daudi, mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nĩgũkorwo kũndũ kũrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova rĩtoonyete nĩ gũtheru.”
12 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to YHWH on the altar of YHWH, which he had built before the porch,
Igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa Solomoni aakĩte mbere ya gĩthaku, hau nĩho Solomoni arutĩire Jehova maruta ma njino,
13 even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times in the year, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tents.
O ta ũrĩa maabataranĩtie kũrutwo o mũthenya nĩ ũndũ wa maruta marĩa Musa aathanĩte ma Thabatũ, na ma Tũrũgamo twa Mweri, na ma ciathĩ ithatũ cia o mwaka, nĩcio Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, na Gĩathĩ gĩa Ciumia, na Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ.
14 He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise, and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required; the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded.
Kũrũmanĩrĩra na wathani ũrĩa watuĩtwo nĩ ithe Daudi, nĩamũrire ikundi cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa mawĩra mao, o na Alawii nĩguo matongoragie hĩndĩ ya kũgooca na ningĩ mateithagĩrĩrie athĩnjĩri-Ngai kũringana na mabataro ma o mũthenya. Ningĩ nĩamũrire ikundi cia arangĩri a ihingo marangagĩre ihingo mwanya mwanya, tondũ ũguo nĩguo Daudi, mũndũ wa Ngai, aathanĩte.
15 They did not depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.
Nao matiatigire kũrũmĩrĩra watho ũrĩa mũthamaki aathĩte athĩnjĩri-Ngai kana Alawii ũndũ-inĩ o wothe hamwe na ũmenyereri wa igĩĩna.
16 Now all the work of Solomon was carried out from the day of the foundation of the house of YHWH, until it was finished. So the house of YHWH was completed.
Wĩra wa Solomoni wothe nĩwahingirio kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa mũthingi wa hekarũ ya Jehova wakirwo nginya ĩkĩrĩka. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio hekarũ ya Jehova ĩkĩrĩkio gwakwo.
17 Then went Solomon to Ezion Geber, and to Eilat, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
Ningĩ Solomoni agĩthiĩ Ezioni-Geberi na Elathu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Edomu.
18 And Hiram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and fetched from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
Nake Hiramu akĩmũtũmĩra marikabu irũgamĩrĩirwo nĩ anene ake, andũ arĩa mooĩ ũhoro wa iria. Andũ acio, hamwe na andũ a Solomoni magĩtwarithia marikabu nginya Ofiri na magĩcooka makĩrehe taranda 450 cia thahabu, iria maatwarĩire Mũthamaki Solomoni.
