Fiawo 1 9
1 Esi fia Solomo wu gbedoxɔ la kple fiasã la kple xɔ bubu siwo wòɖo be yeatu nu la,
And it came to pass when Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all the work of Solomon, whatever he wished to perform,
2 Yehowa gaɖe eɖokui fiae zi evelia abe ale si wòɖe eɖokui fiae zi gbãtɔ le Gibeon ene.
that the Lord appeared to Solomon a second time, as he appeared in Gabaon.
3 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Mese wò gbedodoɖa kple wò kokoƒoƒowo; mekɔ gbedoxɔ si nètu la ŋu to nye ŋkɔ dada ɖe edzi me tegbetegbe. Nye ŋkuwo kple nye dzi anɔ afi ma ɣe sia ɣi.
And the Lord said to him, I have heard the voice of your prayer, and your supplication which you made before me: I have done for you according to all your prayer: I have hallowed this house which you have built to put my name there for ever, and mine eyes and my heart shall be there always.
4 “Ne àzɔ le ŋkunye me, aɖi anukware kple dzimekɔkɔ kpakple dzɔdzɔenyenye abe fofowò David ene, eye nàwɔ nye seawo dzi, alé nye ɖoɖowo kple kɔnuwo me ɖe asi la,
And if you will walk before me as David your father walked, in holiness of heart and uprightness, and so as to do according to all that I commanded him, and shall keep my ordinances and my commandments:
5 ekema mana wò fiaɖuƒe nali ke tegbee abe ale si medo ŋugbe na fofowò, David ene esi megblɔ nɛ be, ‘Viwòwo dometɔ ɖeka anɔ Israel ƒe fiazikpui dzi ɣe sia ɣi!’
then will I establish the throne of your kingdom in Israel for ever, as I spoke to David your father, saying, There shall not fail you a man to rule in Israel.
6 “Ke ne wò alo viwòwo miede megbe le ŋunye, eye miewɔ nye seawo kple ɖoɖo siwo mede asi na mi dzi o, eye mieyi ɖasubɔ mawu bubuwo hede ta agu na wo la,
But if you or your children do in any wise revolt from me, and do not keep my commandments and my ordinances, which Moses set before you, and you go and serve other gods, and worship them:
7 ekema makplɔ Israel dukɔ la adzoe le anyigba si metsɔ na wo la dzi. Maɖe wo le gbedoxɔ sia si ŋu mekɔ na nye ŋkɔ la me eye manya wo le nye ŋkuta. Israel azu hamelo kple alɔmeɖenu le dukɔwo katã dome.
then will I cut off Israel from the land which I have given them, and this house which I have consecrated to my name I will cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a desolation and a byword to all nations.
8 Gbedoxɔ sia azu xɔ gbagbã si ƒe xɔtunuwo woali kɔe ɖi eye ame sia ame si ava tso eme yina la ƒe nu aku eye wòaɖu fewu agblɔ be, ‘Nu ka ta Yehowa wɔ nu siawo ɖe anyigba sia kple gbedoxɔ sia ŋu?’
And this house, which is high, shall be [so that] every one that passes by it shall be amazed, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Therefore has the Lord done thus to this land, and to this house?
9 Eye ŋuɖoɖo la anye, ‘Elabena woɖe asi le Yehowa, woƒe Mawu, si kplɔ wo fofowo tso Egiptenyigba dzi la ŋu eye wosubɔ mawu bubuwo ɖe eteƒe. Nu sia tae Yehowa he dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia va wo dzi ɖo.’”
And [men] shall say, Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought out their fathers from Egypt, out of the house of bondage, and they attached themselves to strange gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore the Lord has brought this evil upon them. Then Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharao out of the city of David into his house which he built for himself in those days.
10 Le ƒe blaeve megbe esi Solomo tu xɔ eve siawo: gbedoxɔ la kple eƒe fiasã la vɔ la,
[During] twenty years in which Solomon was building the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,
11 Fia Solomo tsɔ du blaeve le Galilea na Hiram, Tiro fia elabena Hiram tsɔ sedatiwo kple sesewutiwo kple sika siwo katã wohiã la nɛ.
Chiram king of Tyre helped Solomon with cedar wood, and fir wood, and with gold, and all that he wished for: then the king gave Chiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 Ke esi Hiram tso Tiro yi ɖakpɔ du siwo Solomo tsɔ nɛ la, duawo medze eŋu o.
So Chiram departed from Tyre, and went into Galilee to see the cities which Solomon gave to him; and they pleased him not. And he said,
13 Ebia Fia Solomo be, “Nɔvinye, du ka ƒomeviwoe nye esiawo nènam? Etsɔ ŋkɔ na duawo be ‘Kabul’ si gɔmee nye, ‘Menyo na naneke o.’”
What [are] these cities which you have given me, brother? And he called them Boundary until this day.
14 Fia Hiram ɖo sika si ƒe kpekpeme nye kilogram akpe ene alafa etɔ̃ la ɖe fia la.
And Chiram brought to Solomon a hundred and twenty talents of gold,

even that for which king Solomon built a ship in Gasion Gaber near Aelath on the shore of the extremity of the sea in the land of Edom.

And Chiram sent in the ship together with the servants of Solomon servants of his own, mariners to row, men acquainted with the sea.
28 Wode Ofir eye wotsɔ sika kilogram akpe wuiatɔ̃ alafa ɖeka blaeve vɛ na Fia Solomo.
And they came to Sophira, and took thence a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
