2 Chronicles 9
1 Also the queen of Saba, whanne sche hadde herd the fame of Salomon, cam to tempte hym in derk figuris `in to Jerusalem, with grete ritchessis, and camels, that baren swete smellynge spices, and ful myche of gold, and preciouse iemmes, `ether peerlis. And whanne sche was comun to Salomon, sche spak to hym what euer thingis weren in hir herte.
Ɛberɛ a Seba Ɔhemmaa tee Salomo nka no, ɔbaa Yerusalem sɛ ɔde nsɛm a anoyie yɛ den rebɛsɔ no ahwɛ. Ɔne nʼasomfoɔ bebree, nyoma pii a wɔahyehyɛ nnuhwam, sikakɔkɔɔ bebree ne aboɔdemmoɔ wɔ wɔn so na ɛbaeɛ.
2 And Salomon expownede to hir alle thingis whiche sche hadde put forth, and no thing was, which he made not opyn to hir.
Ɔhyiaa Salomo no, wɔdii biribiara a enti ɔbaa saa nsrahwɛ no ho nkɔmmɔ, maa Salomo yii ne nsɛmmisa biara ano sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ.
3 And aftir that sche siy these thingis, that is, the wisdom of Salomon, and the hows which he hadde bildid,
Seba Ɔhemmaa hunuu nyansa a Salomo wɔ ne ahemfie a wasi no,
4 also and the metis of his boord, and the dwellyng places of seruauntis, and the offices of hise mynystris, and the clothis of hem, and the boteleris, and her clothis, and the sacrifices whiche he offride in the hows of the Lord, spirit was no more in hir for wondryng.
ne ho dwirii no. Ɔhunuu nnuane a ɛsisi ne didipono so no, sɛdeɛ watoto nʼadwumayɛfoɔ ne ntadeɛ fɛfɛ a wɔhyehyɛ, kuruwakurafoɔ ne wɔn ntadeɛ yuu ne ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a Salomo abɔ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no, ɛyɛɛ no nwanwa.
5 And sche seide to the kyng, The word `is trewe, which Y herde in my lond, of thi vertues and wisdom;
Ɔfiri ahodwirie mu ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ, “Biribiara a metee wɔ me kurom a ɛfa deɛ woatumi ayɛ ne wo nyansa ho no yɛ nokorɛ.
6 Y bileuyde not to telleris, til Y my silf hadde come, and myn yyen hadden seyn, and Y hadde preued that vnnethis the half of thi wisdom was teld to me; thou hast ouercome the fame bi thi vertues.
Mannye anni kɔsii sɛ mʼankasa mebaa ha, de mʼani kann bɛhunuiɛ. Nokorɛm, mante emu fa mpo. Wo nyansa no boro deɛ wɔka kyerɛɛ me no so koraa.
7 Blessid ben thi men, and blessid ben thi seruauntis, these that stonden bifor thee in al tyme, and heren thi wisdom.
Anigyeɛ bɛn na saa nnipa yi renya? Adom bɛn na wo mpanimfoɔ a wɔne wowɔ ha anɔpa ne awia tie wo renya mfiri wo nyansa yi mu?
8 Blessid be `thi Lord God, that wolde ordeyne thee on his trone kyng of the puple of `thi Lord God; treuli for God loueth Israel, and wole saue hym with outen ende, therfor he hath set thee kyng on hym, that thou do domes and riytfulnesse.
Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn yɛ kɛse ampa. Nʼani gye wo ho, enti ɔde wo asi ahennwa so sɛ di ɔhene ma no. Ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn pɛ Israel asɛm dodo, na ɔpɛ sɛ saa ahennie yi tena afebɔɔ; wasi wo ɔhene sɛdeɛ wode nokorɛ ne atɛntenenee bɛbu ɔman no.”
9 Forsothe sche yaf to the kyng sixe scoore talentis of gold, and ful many swete smellynge spices, and moost preciouse iemmes; ther weren not siche swete smellynge spices, as these whiche the queen of Saba yaf `to kyng Salomon.
Afei, ɔmaa ɔhene no sikakɔkɔɔ akyɛdeɛ a ɛkari tɔno 4 ne nnuhwam pii ne aboɔdemmoɔ. Seba Ɔhemmaa nnuhwam a ɔde maa Salomo no so bi mmaa da.
10 But also the seruauntis of Iram with the seruauntis of Salomon brouyten gold fro Ophir, and trees of thyne, and most preciouse iemmes; of whiche,
Ɛberɛ a Huram hyɛnmufoɔ ne Salomo nkurɔfoɔ de sikakɔkɔɔ firi Ofir baeɛ no, wɔde abako nnua pa bebree ne aboɔdemmoɔ kaa ho baeɛ.
11 that is, of the trees of thyne, the kyng made grees in the hows of the Lord, and in the hows of the kyng, `harpis also, and sautrees to syngeris; siche trees weren neuere seyn in the lond of Juda.
Ɔhene no de abako nnua no yɛɛ Awurade Asɔredan ne ahemfie no ntrapoe. Ɔde bi nso yɛɛ nsankuten ne mmɛnta maa nnwom ho nimdefoɔ no. Na saa nnwontodeɛ no so bi mmaa da wɔ Yuda.
12 Forsothe Salomon yaf to the queen of Saba alle thingis whiche sche wolde, and whiche sche axide, many moo than sche hadde brouyt to hym. And sche turnede ayen, and yede in to hir lond with hir seruauntis.
Biribiara a Seba Ɔhemmaa bisaa ɔhene Salomo no, ɔde maa no. Na ɛyɛ akyɛdeɛ a ɛsom bo pa ara, na ɛboro deɛ ɔhemmaa de brɛɛ noɔ no so. Afei, ɔhemmaa no ne nʼasomfoɔ no sane kɔɔ wɔn ankasa asase so.
13 Forsothe the weiyt of gold, that was brouyt to Salomon bi ech yeer, was sixe hundrid and sixe and sixti talentis of gold,
Afe biara, na Salomo nya sikakɔkɔɔ bɛyɛ tɔno aduonu enum.
14 outakun that summe whiche the legatis of dyuerse folkis, and marchauntis weren wont to brynge, and alle the kyngis of Arabie, and the princes of londis, that brouyten togidere gold and siluer to Salomon.
Na sika a ɔnya firi adwadifoɔ nkyɛn no nka yei ho. Na Arabia ahemfo nyinaa ne amradofoɔ a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa brɛ Salomo sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ.
15 Therfor kyng Salomon made two hundrid goldun speris of the summe of sixe hundrid `floreyns, ether peesis of gold, that weren spendid in ech spere;
Ɔhene Salomo de sikakɔkɔɔ yɛɛ akokyɛm akɛseɛ ahanu a wɔde hamre boroeɛ, na sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde yɛɛ emu biara no mu duru boro kilogram nson.
16 and he made thre hundrid goldun scheeldis of thre hundrid floreyns, with whiche ech scheeld was hilid; and the kyng puttide tho in the armure place, that was set in the wode.
Ɔsane yɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ akokyɛm nketewa ahasa a wɔde hamre boroeɛ a na sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde yɛɛ emu biara no mu duru bɛyɛ kilogram mmiɛnsa ne fa. Ɔhene no kɔkoraa saa akokyɛm yi wɔ Lebanon Kwaeɛ Ahemfie mu.
17 Also the kyng made a greet seete of yuer, and clothide it with clennest gold;
Afei, ɔhene no de asonse yɛɛ ahennwa kɛseɛ bi, na ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa huraa ho.
18 and he made sixe grees, bi whiche me stiede to the seete, and a goldun stool, and tweyne armes, oon ayens `the tother, and twei liouns stondynge bisidis the armes;
Na ahennwa no wɔ ntrapoe nsia a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ nantiasoɔ afam ho. Ahennwa no wɔ nsa wɔ benkum. Ne nifa na gyata sɛso nso gyinagyina afa ne fa wɔ ahennwa no ho.
19 but also he made twelue othere litle liouns stondynge on sixe grees on euer either side. Siche a seete was not in alle rewmes.
Salomo sane yɛɛ agyata sɛso dumienu a ɔbaako biara gyina atwedeɛ ntiasoɔ nsia no mu biara benkum ne nifa. Ahennwa biara nni ewiase a wɔbɛtumi de atoto Salomo deɛ no ho.
20 And alle the vessels of the feeste of the kyng weren of gold, and the vessels of the hows of the forest of the Liban weren of pureste gold; for siluer in tho daies was arettid for nouyt.
Ɔhene Salomo nkuruwa nyinaa, sikakɔkɔɔ amapa na wɔde yɛeɛ. Saa ara na nneɛma ahodoɔ a ɛwɔ Lebanon Kwaeɛ Ahemfie mu no nso teɛ. Wɔamfa dwetɛ anyɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Salomo berɛ so no, na wɔbu dwetɛ ade teta bi.
21 For also the schippis of the kyng yeden in to Tharsis with the seruauntis of Iram onys in thre yeer, and brouyten fro thennus gold, and siluer, and yuer, and apis, and pokokis.
Na ɔhene no wɔ adwadie ahyɛn a emu adwumayɛfoɔ yɛ Huram asomfoɔ. Mfeɛ mmiɛnsa biara, ahyɛn no ba a, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, asonse, nkaatia, nkontromfi ne kohaa brɛ ɔhene no.
22 Therfor kyng Salomon was magnyfied ouer alle kyngis of erthe for richessis and glorie.
Enti, ɔhene Salomo bɛyɛɛ ɔdefoɔ ne onyansafoɔ sene ɔhene biara wɔ asase so nyinaa.
23 And alle the kyngis of londis desireden to se the face of Salomon, for to here the wisdom which God hadde youe in his herte; and thei brouyten to hym yiftis,
Ahemfo fifiri aman nyinaa so bɛsraa no, tiee ne nyansasɛm a Onyankopɔn de adom no no bi.
24 vessels of siluer and of gold, clothis and armuris, and swete smellynge spices, horsis and mulis, bi ech yeer.
Afe biara, obiara a ɔbɛba abɛsra no no, ɔbrɛ no akyɛdeɛ te sɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, ntadeɛ, akodeɛ, nnuhwam, apɔnkɔ ne mfunumpɔnkɔ.
25 Also Salomon hadde fourti thousynde of horsis in stablis, and twelue thousynde of charis and of knyytis; and `he ordeynede hem in the citees of charis, and where the kyng was in Jerusalem.
Na Salomo wɔ mpɔnkɔdan mpemnan a ne nteaseɛnam apɔnkɔ da mu ne mpɔnkɔ mpem dumienu. Ɔde mu fa kɛseɛ no kɔɔ nkuro a ne nteaseɛnam wɔ mu mu, ɛnna ɔmaa ebi nso bɛnee no wɔ Yerusalem.
26 Forsothe he vside power on alle the kyngis, fro the flood Eufrates `til to the lond of Filisteis, and `til to the termes of Egipt.
Ɔdii ɔhene, bunkam faa ahemfo nyinaa so, firi Asubɔnten Eufrate ano de kɔsi Filistifoɔ asase ne Misraim hyeɛ so.
27 And he yaf so greet plente of siluer in Jerusalem, as of stoonys, and so greet multitude of cedris, as of sycomoris that growen in feeldi places.
Ɔhene no maa dwetɛ buu te sɛ aboɔ wɔ Yerusalem. Na ntweneduro nnua a ɛsom bo no nso buu so sɛ akyee nnua a ɛfifiri wɔ mmepɔ ase wɔ Yuda asase so.
28 Forsothe horsis weren brouyt fro Egipt, and fro alle cuntreis.
Na wɔtɔ Salomo apɔnkɔ firi Misraim ne aman ahodoɔ bebree so.
29 Sotheli the residue of the formere werkis and the laste of Salomon ben writun in the wordis of Nathan, the prophete, and in the wordis of Achie of Silo, and in the visioun, `ether prophesie, of Addo, the prophete, ayens Jeroboam, sone of Nabath.
Salomo ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, firi ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu odiyifoɔ Natan nwoma, Ahiya a ɔfiri Silo adiyisɛm ne nhunumuni Ido anisoadehunu a ɛfa Nebat babarima Yeroboam ho no mu.
30 Sotheli Salomon regnede in Jerusalem on al Israel fourti yeer,
Salomo tenaa Yerusalem dii Israel nyinaa so ɔhene mfeɛ aduanan.
31 and he slepte with his fadris; and thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid, and Roboam, his sone, regnyde for hym.
Ɔwuiɛ no, wɔsiee no nʼagya Dawid kurom. Ne babarima Rehoboam na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
