1 Chronicles 29
1 And David the king saith to all the assembly, 'Solomon my son — the one on whom God hath fixed — [is] young and tender, and the work [is] great, for not for man is the palace, but for Jehovah God;
Afei, Ɔhene Dawid danee nʼani kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Me babarima Salomo a Onyankopɔn ayi no sɛ ɔnni Israel so sɛ ɔhene foforɔ no da so yɛ abɔfra a ɔnni suahunu biara. Adwuma a ɛda nʼanim no so, na Asɔredan a ɔbɛsi no nyɛ ɛdan hunu bi. Ɛyɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn no ankasa dea.
2 and with all my power I have prepared for the house of my God, the gold for [things of] gold, and the silver for [those of] silver, and the brass for [those of] brass, the iron for [those of] iron, and the wood for [those of] wood, shoham stones, and settings, and stones of painting and of diverse colours, and all [kinds of] precious stone, and stones of white marble, in abundance.
Mede deɛ metumi yɛ biara adi dwuma, maboaboa deɛ mɛtumi anya nyinaa ano ama me Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no sie. Seesei, sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere mfrafraeɛ, nnadeɛ ne nnua ne apopobibirieboɔ ne aboɔdemmoɔ, aboɔden agudeɛ ne abopa ne abohemaa ahodoɔ nyinaa pii wɔ hɔ.
3 'And again, because of my delighting in the house of my God, the substance I have — a peculiar treasure of gold and silver — I have given for the house of my God, even over and above all I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary:
Na ɛsiane me ho a mede ama me Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no enti, mede mʼankasa sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ bɛboa ɛdan no sie. Yeinom bɛka adansie no ho nneɛma a maboaboa ano, ama asɔredan kronkron no ho.
4 three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses,
Mama Ofir sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛboro tɔno 112 ne dwetɛ a wɔahoa ho tɔno 262 a wɔde bɛgu adan no afasuo anim,
5 even gold for [things of] gold, and silver for [those of] silver, and for all the work by the hand of artificers; and who [is] he that is offering willingly to consecrate his hand to-day to Jehovah?'
ne sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ nnwuma a aka a adwumfoɔ no bɛyɛ no. Afei, hwan na ɔbɛyi ne yam de nʼayɛyɛdeɛ ama Awurade ɛnnɛ?”
6 And the heads of the fathers, and the heads of the tribes of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, even to the heads of the work of the king, offer willingly.
Na abusua ntuanofoɔ, Israel mmusuakuo ntuanofoɔ, asahene ne asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ ne ɔhene adwumayɛfoɔ nyinaa firii ɔpɛ pa mu maeɛ.
7 And they give for the service of the house of God, of gold — talents five thousand, and drams a myriad; and of silver — talents ten thousand, and of brass — a myriad and eight thousand talents; and of iron — a hundred thousand talents;
Wɔmaa sikakɔkɔɔ bɛyɛ tɔno 188, sika ankasa ɔpedu, ɛnna dwetɛ bɛyɛ tɔno 375, kɔbere mfrafraeɛ bɛyɛ tɔno 675 ne nnadeɛ bɛyɛ tɔno 3,750, de boaa Asɔredan no sie.
8 and he with whom stones are found hath given to the treasury of the house of Jehovah, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.
Wɔmaa aboɔdemmoɔ bebree a wɔkɔkoraa no wɔ sikakorabea a ɛwɔ Awurade fie maa Yehiel a ɔyɛ Gerson aseni hwɛɛ so.
9 And the people rejoice because of their offering willingly, for with a perfect heart they have offered willingly to Jehovah; and also David the king hath rejoiced — great joy.
Nnipa no ani gyee ɔma no ho, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔfiri ɔpɛ pa ne akoma pa mu na wɔyiyi maa Awurade, na Ɔhene Dawid ani gyee yie.
10 And David blesseth Jehovah before the eyes of all the assembly, and David saith, 'Blessed [art] Thou, Jehovah, God of Israel our father, from age even unto age.
Na ɔhene Dawid kamfoo Awurade wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim sɛ, “Ao Awurade, yɛn agya Israel Onyankopɔn, ayɛyie nka wo daa nyinaa.
11 To Thee, O Jehovah, [is] the greatness, and the might, and the beauty, and the victory, and the honour, because of all in the heavens and in the earth; to Thee, O Jehovah, [is] the kingdom, and he who is lifting up himself over all for head;
Kɛseyɛ, ahoɔden, animuonyam, nkonimdie ne tumi yɛ wo dea Ao Awurade. Biribiara a ɛwɔ ɔsoro ne asase so yɛ wo dea, Ao Awurade, na ahennie yi nso wɔ wo. Yɛma wo so sɛ wone adeɛ nyinaa so otumfoɔ.
12 and the riches, and the honour [are] from before Thee, and Thou art ruling over all, and in Thy hand [is] power and might, and in Thy hand, to make great, and to give strength to all.
Ahonya ne animuonyam firi wo nko ara, ɛfiri sɛ, woyɛ adeɛ nyinaa sodifoɔ. Tumi ne ahoɔden nyinaa wɔ wo nsam na wopɛ mu na wofiri ma nnipa yɛ kɛseɛ na wɔnya ahoɔden.
13 'And now, our God, we are giving thanks to Thee, and giving praise to Thy beauteous name;
Ao, yɛn Onyankopɔn, yɛda wo ase, na yɛkamfo wo din kronkron no.
14 yea, because, who [am] I, and who [are] my people, that we retain power to offer thus willingly? but of Thee [is] the whole, and out of Thy hand we have given to Thee;
“Na me ne hwan na me nkurɔfoɔ ne nnipa bɛn a yɛtumi kyɛ wo biribi? Biribiara a yɛwɔ no firi wo nkyɛn, na deɛ yɛde ma wo no yɛ deɛ wode ama yɛn dada.
15 for sojourners we [are] before Thee, and settlers, like all our fathers; as a shadow [are] our days on the land, and there is none abiding.
Yɛwɔ ha mmerɛ tiawa bi sɛ nsrahwɛfoɔ ne ahɔhoɔ wɔ asase a yɛn agyanom dii ɛkan wɔ so no so. Yɛn nna wɔ asase so te sɛ sunsumma a ɛtwam kɔ ntɛm so a wɔnhunu bio.
16 'O Jehovah our God, all this store that we have prepared to build to Thee a house, for Thy holy name, [is] out of Thy hand, and of Thee [is] the whole.
Ao Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, saa nneɛma a yɛaboaboa ano de rebɛsi asɔredan de ahyɛ wo din kronkron animuonyam yi mpo firi wo nkyɛn! Ne nyinaa yɛ wo dea.
17 'And I have known, my God, that Thou art trying the heart, and uprightness dost desire; I, in the uprightness of my heart, have willingly offered all these: and now, Thy people who are found here I have seen with joy to offer willingly to Thee.
Me Onyankopɔn, menim sɛ wohwehwɛ yɛn akoma mu, na sɛ wohunu nokorɛdie wɔ mu a, wʼani gye. Wonim sɛ mede adwene pa na ɛyɛɛ yeinom nyinaa, na mahwɛ ahunu sɛdeɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ firi akoma pa ne anigyeɛ mu de wɔn akyɛdeɛ aba.
18 'O Jehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep this to the age for the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of Thy people, and prepare their heart unto Thee;
Ao, Awurade, yɛn agyanom Abraham, Isak ne Israel Onyankopɔn, ma wo nkurɔfoɔ nyɛ ɔsetie mma wo daa. Mma ɔdɔ a wɔde dɔ wo no nsesa.
19 and to Solomon my son give a perfect heart, to keep Thy commands, Thy testimonies, and Thy statutes, and to do the whole, even to build the palace [for] which I have prepared.'
Ma me babarima Salomo akoma nyinaa mu ɔpɛ pa, na ɔnni wʼahyɛdeɛ, wo mmara ne wo nkyerɛkyerɛ so, na ɔnsi saa Asɔredan yi a mayɛ ho ahoboa nyinaa yi.”
20 And David saith to all the assembly, 'Bless, I pray you, Jehovah your God;' and all the assembly bless Jehovah, God of their fathers, and bow and do obeisance to Jehovah, and to the king.
Afei, Dawid ka kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa sɛ, “Monkamfo Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn!” Na ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa kamfoo Awurade, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn, na wɔkoto buu nkotodwe wɔ Awurade ne ɔhene no anim.
21 And they sacrifice to Jehovah sacrifices, and cause to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the morrow of that day, bullocks a thousand, rams a thousand, lambs a thousand, and their oblations, even sacrifices in abundance, for all Israel.
Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, wɔde anantwinini apem, nnwennini apem ne nnwanmmaa anini apem bɛbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Wɔsane gyinaa Israel ananmu, de ɔnom afɔrebɔdeɛ pii ne afɔrebɔdeɛ ahodoɔ baeɛ.
22 And they eat and drink before Jehovah on that day with great joy, and cause Solomon son of David to reign a second time, and anoint [him] before Jehovah for leader, and Zadok for priest.
Wɔde ahosɛpɛ didi nomee da no wɔ Awurade anim. Na bio, wɔhyɛɛ Dawid babarima Salomo ahenkyɛ sɛ wɔn ɔhene foforɔ. Wɔsraa no ngo wɔ Awurade anim sɛ wɔn ntuanoni, na wɔsraa Sadok nso ngo sɛ wɔn ɔsɔfoɔ.
23 And Solomon sitteth on the throne of Jehovah for king instead of David his father, and prospereth, and all Israel hearken unto him,
Na Salomo tenaa Awurade ahennwa no so sɛ nʼagya Dawid ɔnanmusini, na ɔkɔɔ so yie, na Israel nyinaa tiee no.
24 and all the heads, and the mighty men, and also all the sons of king David have given a hand under Solomon the king;
Adehyeɛ mpanimfoɔ nyinaa, asahene ne Dawid mmammarima nyinaa suae kyerɛɛ ɔhene Salomo.
25 and Jehovah maketh Solomon exceedingly great before the eyes of all Israel, and putteth upon him the honour of the kingdom that hath not been on any king over Israel before him.
Na Awurade pagyaa Salomo maa Israelman no maa no nidie nwanwasoɔ, na ɔmaa Salomo ahonya ne animuonyam sene nʼagya.
26 And David son of Jesse hath reigned over all Israel,
Enti, Yisai babarima Dawid dii Israel nyinaa so ɔhene.
27 and the days that he hath reigned over Israel [are] forty years; in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three;
Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Israel mfeɛ aduanan a ne nkyerɛmu ne sɛ, ɔtenaa Hebron mfeɛ nson dii adeɛ, na mfeɛ aduasa mmiɛnsa nso, ɔtenaa Yerusalem.
28 and he dieth in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches, and honour, and reign doth Solomon his son in his stead.
Ɔtenaa ase kyɛree, nyinii yie, nyaa ahodeɛ ne animuonyam ansa na ɔrewu. Na ne babarima Salomo dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
29 And the matters of David the king, the first and the last, lo, they are written beside the matters of Samuel the seer, and beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the matters of Gad the seer,
Ɛfiri Ɔhene Dawid adedie ahyɛaseɛ de kɔsi nʼawieeɛ mu nsɛm nyinaa, wɔatwerɛ agu ɔdehunufoɔ Samuel abakɔsɛm nwoma, odiyifoɔ Natan abakɔsɛm nwoma ne ɔdehunufoɔ Gad abakɔsɛm nwoma mu.
30 with all his reign, and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all kingdoms of the lands.
Nʼadedie mu akokoɔdurusɛm ne biribiara a ɛbaa ne so, Israel ne ahennie ahodoɔ a atwa ne ho ahyia nyinaa nso yɛ nsɛm a wɔatwerɛ.
