2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified 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 spake unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ [houses].
Salomo abengisaki Isalaele mobimba: bakonzi ya bankoto ya basoda, bakonzi ya bankama ya basoda, basambisi, bakambi ya Isalaele mobimba mpe bakambi ya mabota.
3 So Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had 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 the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjath-jearim to [the place] that David had prepared for it: for he had pitched a tent for it at 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 Moreover the brasen altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon and the congregation sought unto 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 went up thither to the brasen altar before the LORD, which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings upon it.
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 did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee.
Na butu wana, Nzambe abimelaki Salomo mpe alobaki na ye: — Senga Ngai nyonso oyo olingi ete napesa yo.
8 And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great kindness unto David my father, and hast 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 Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
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 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?
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 thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee; neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee 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 wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.
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 So Solomon came [from his journey] to the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he 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 gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, which he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at 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 to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
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 the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; the king’s merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.
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 they fetched up, and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and an horse for an hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Syria, did they bring them out 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.
