2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon, son of David, strengthened himself over his kingdom, —and, Yahweh, his God, was with him, and made him surpassingly great.
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 gave word to all Israel—to the rulers of thousands, and hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the leaders of all Israel, ancestral chiefs;
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 convocation with him, went to the high place that was in Gibeon, —for, there, was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of Yahweh made in the desert.
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 Howbeit, the ark of God, had David brought up from Kiriath-jearim, into the place that David had prepared for it, —for he had pitched for it a tent, 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 Also, the altar of bronze that Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur had made, was there before the habitation of Yahweh, —so Solomon and the convocation sought 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, unto the altar of bronze before Yahweh, which belonged to the tent of meeting, —and caused to go up thereon a thousand ascending-sacrifices.
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 During that night, God appeared 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 thyself, didst deal with David my father in great lovingkindness, —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 Yahweh Elohim, let thy word with David my father be brought to pass, -for, thou, hast made me king over a people, for multitude like 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, wisdom and knowledge, give thou unto me, that I may go out before this people, and may come in, —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 unto Solomon, Because this was near thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, or the life of them that hate thee, nor even, many days, hast thou asked, —but hast asked for thyself, wisdom and knowledge, 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, are granted unto thee, —moreover, riches and wealth and honour, will I give thee, such as the kings who were before thee did not possess, neither shall they who come after thee possess 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 And Solomon came from the high place that was in Gibeon unto Jerusalem, from before the tent of meeting, —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 gathered chariots and horsemen, and came to have a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —and he settled them in chariot cities, and 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, like stones, and, cedars, made he like the sycomores 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, an export, out of Egypt, —and a, company of royal merchants, used to fetch a 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 built and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot, for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse, for a hundred and fifty, -and, so, for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria, by their means, brought they them forth.
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.
