2 Chronicles 8
1 At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the LORD’s house and his own house,
Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh amah im a sak te kum kul a bawtnah la a pha coeng.
2 Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
Te phoeiah Huram loh Solomon taengla a paek khopuei rhoek te Solomon loh a thoh tih Israel ca rhoek pahoi kho a sak sak.
3 Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
Te phoeiah Solomon loh Khamath Zobah la cet tih te te a loh.
4 He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
Khosoek kah Tadmor te khaw, Khamath kah a sak rhuengim khopuei boeih te koep a thoh.
5 Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
Thohkhaih thohkalh neh vongtung vongup kah khopuei, a so Bethhoron neh a dang Bethhoron te koep a thoh.
6 and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
Baalath neh rhuengim khopuei boeih khaw Solomon hut la om. Leng kah khopuei boeih neh marhang caem khopuei khaw Solomon kah huengaihnah boeih te tah a Jerusalem ah khaw, Lebanon ah khaw a khohung khohmuen tom ah a kocuk bangla a sak.
7 As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel—
Khitti neh Amori, Perizzi neh Khivee, Jebusi lamkah a coih pilnam boeih, amih te Israel khui lamkah moenih.
8 of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume—of them Solomon conscripted forced labour to this day.
Amih koca lamkah te amih hnuk la khohmuen ah sueng uh. Amih te Israel ca rhoek a khah uh pawt dongah tahae khohnin hil Solomon taengah saldong la cet.
9 But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
Tedae Israel ca te tah Solomon loh amah kah bitat dongah sal la khueh pawh. Amih tah caemtloek hlang neh amah kah rhalboei mangpa rhoek, amah leng neh marhang caem kah mangpa rhoek la om uh.
10 These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people.
Manghai Solomon kah khohung mangpa la pai tih pilnam soah aka taemrhai rhoek te yahnih sawmnga lo.
11 Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city 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 LORD’s ark has come are holy.”
Solomon loh Pharaoh canu tah David khopuei lamloh anih ham a sak pah im la a thak tih, “Kai yuu he Israel manghai David im ah om boel mai saeh. Te tah a khuila BOEIPA thingkawng a kun dongah cim,” a ti.
12 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the LORD’s altar which he had built before the porch,
Te vaengah Solomon loh ngalha hmai kah a suem BOEIPA kah hmueihtuk dongah BOEIPA ham hmueihhlutnah a khuen.
13 even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.
Moses kah olpaek bangla a hnin hnin ah nawn hamla Sabbath ham neh hlasae ham khaw, kum khat khuikah voei thum tingtunnah ham khaw, vaidamding khotue ham khaw, yalh khat khotue ham khaw, pohlip khotue ham ol om coeng.
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 David the man of God had so commanded.
A napa David kah khosing bangla khosoih kah boelnah te amih kah thothuengnah ham, Levi khaw amamih hamsum bangla aka thangthen ham neh a hnin hnin kah olka dongah khosoih hmai kah aka thotat la, thoh tawt rhoek khaw amamih kah boelnah bangla kho vongka, vongka ah a pai sak. He tah Pathen kah hlang David kah olpaek ni.
15 They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
Olka cungkuem neh thakvoh kawng dongah khaw khosoih rhoek neh Levi taengkah manghai olpaek he a phaelh uh moenih.
16 Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of the LORD’s house until it was finished. So the LORD’s house was completed.
Solomon kah bitat boeih he BOEIPA im kah tungkho a sut khohnin lamloh rhuemtuet la BOEIPA im a khah hil cung coeng.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
Te vaengah Solomon te Edom khohmuen kah tuipuei tuikaeng Eziongeber neh Elath la cet.
18 Huram 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 brought from there four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
Te phoeiah Huram te a sal rhoek kut lamloh amah taengla sangpho neh a tah. Te dongah sangpho neh tuipuei aka ming a sal rhoek khaw Solomon kah sal neh Ophir la pawk uh. Te lamloh sui talent ya li sawmnga te a khuen uh tih manghai Solomon taengla pawk uh.
