Kronika 2 8
1 Le ƒe blaeve megbe esi Solomo tu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la kple eya ŋutɔ ƒe fiasã la vɔ la,
And it cometh to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon hath built the house of Jehovah, and his own house.
2 Solomo gbugbɔ kɔƒe siwo Hiram tso nɛ la tu eye wòna Israelviwo yi ɖanɔ wo me.
As to the cities that Huram hath given to Solomon, Solomon hath built them, and there he causeth the sons of Israel to dwell.
3 Ɣeyiɣi sia me kee Solomo ho aʋa ɖe Hamat Zoba du la ŋu eye wòɖu edzi.
And Solomon goeth to Hamath-Zobah, and layeth hold upon it;
4 Etso Tadmɔ du la ɖe gbegbe kple du bubuwo ɖe Hamat abe nudzraɖoƒe duwo ene.
and he buildeth Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the cities of store that he hath built in Hamath.
5 Eglã Bet Horon du dzigbetɔ kple Bet Horon anyigbetɔ siaa. Eɖo gli ƒo xlã wo, de gakpogbowo kple gametiwo wo nu.
And he buildeth Beth-Horon the upper, and Beth-Horon the lower — cities of defence, with walls, two-leaved doors, and bar —
6 Etu Baalat kple nudzraɖoƒe du bubuwo le ɣeyiɣi sia me, etso du siwo me wòda eƒe tasiaɖamwo kple sɔwo ɖo eye wòtu xɔ siwo katã dzroe la ɖe Yerusalem kple Lebanon kple teƒe bubu vovovowo le anyigba si dzi wònye fia ɖo.
and Baalath, and all the cities of store that Solomon had, and all the cities of the chariot, and the cities of the horsemen, and all the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7 Ame siwo katã susɔ le Hititɔwo, Amoritɔwo, Perizitɔwo, Hivitɔwo kple Yebusitɔwo dome (ame siwo menye Israelviwo o),
All the people who are left of the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who are not of Israel —
8 Woawoe nye ame siwo nɔ anyigba la dzi tsã ƒe dzidzimeviwo ame siwo Israelviwo metsrɔ̃ o la. Fia Solomo na wowɔ dɔ abe kluviwo ene abe ale si wòle va se ɖe egbe ene.
of their sons who have been left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel consumed not — doth Solomon lift up a tribute unto this day.
9 Ke metsɔ Israelviwo ya wɔ kluviwo o, ke boŋ ena wozu asrafowo, asrafomegãwo, le aʋafiawo, tasiaɖamkulawo dzikpɔlawo kple sɔdolawo nu;
And none of the sons of Israel hath Solomon made servants for his work, but they [are] men of war, and heads of his captains, and heads of his charioteers, and of his horsemen;
10 hekpe ɖe dziɖuɖu ƒe dɔdzikpɔla alafa eve blaatɔ̃, ame siwo kpɔa dukɔmenyawo katã dzi la ŋu.
and these [are] heads of the officers whom king Solomon hath, two hundred and fifty who are rulers among the people.
11 Solomo kplɔ srɔ̃a si nye Fia Farao ƒe vinyɔnu la dzoe tso Yerusalem ƒe akpa si woyɔna be David ƒe Du la me yi fiasã yeye si wotu nɛ la me elabena egblɔ be, “Mele be srɔ̃nye nanɔ Fia David ƒe fiasã me o elabena Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la nɔ afi ma kpɔ eye wònye teƒe kɔkɔe.”
And the daughter of Pharaoh hath Solomon brought up from the city of David to the house that he built for her, for he said, 'My wife doth not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for they are holy unto whom hath come the ark of Jehovah.'
12 Solomo sa numevɔwo na Yehowa le Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui si wòɖi ɖe akpata si le gbedoxɔ la ŋgɔ la dzi.
Then hath Solomon caused to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the altar of Jehovah that he built before the porch,
13 Wosaa vɔ siawo ɖe gbe sia gbe ƒe hiahiãwo nu abe ale si dze ene, ɖe Dzudzɔgbewo, Dzinu Yeyewo kple ŋkekenyui etɔ̃ siwo woɖuna le ƒea me la nu. Esiawoe nye Abolo Maʋamaʋã ƒe Ŋkekenyui, Kɔsiɖawo ƒe Ŋkekenyui kple Agbadɔ ƒe Ŋkekenyui.
even by the matter of a day in its day, to cause to ascend according to the command of Moses, on sabbaths, and on new moons, and on appointed seasons, three times in a year — in the feast of unleavened things, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of booths.
14 Be wòalé fofoa David ƒe ɖoɖowo me ɖe asi la, etia nunɔlawo ɖe woƒe hatsotsowo me hena woƒe dɔdeasiwo wɔwɔ eye Levitɔwo hã be woanɔ ŋgɔ le kafukafuhawo dzidzime eye woakpe ɖe nunɔlaawo ŋu le gbe sia gbe ƒe hiahiãwo nu. Nenema ke wòtia agbonudzɔlawo ɖe woƒe hatsotsowo me hena agbo vovovoawo ŋu dzɔdzɔ elabena esiae David, Mawu ƒe ame la, ɖo da ɖi.
And he establisheth, according to the ordinance of David his father, the courses of the priests over their service, and of the Levites over their charges, to praise and to minister over-against the priests, according to the matter of a day in its day, and the gatekeepers in their courses at gate and gate, for so [is] the command of David the man of God.
15 Womeda le fia la ƒe sededewo na nunɔlawo alo Levitɔwo dzi le nya aɖeke me o. Nenema kee nye nudzraɖoƒewo ƒe nyawo hã.
And they have not turned aside [from] the command of the king concerning the priests and the Levites, in reference to any matter, and to the treasures.
16 Wowɔ dɔ siwo katã Solomo de tome be yeawɔ la tso gbe si gbe wòɖo Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe gɔmeɖokpe anyi va se ɖe esime wowu enu. Ale wowu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu nu.
And all the work of Solomon is prepared till the day of the foundation of the house of Jehovah, and till its completion; perfect is the house of Jehovah.
17 Solomo yi Ezion Geber kple Elat le Edom ƒuta.
Then hath Solomon gone to Ezion-Geber, and unto Elath, on the border of the sea, in the land of Edom;
18 Hiram ɖo tɔdziʋu siwo eya ŋutɔ ƒe amewo, ame siwo nya atsiaƒu ŋu dɔ wɔwɔ nyuie la ku la ɖee. Ame siawo kple Solomo ƒe amewo yi Ofir eye wotsɔ sika kilo akpe wuiatɔ̃ vɛ na Fia Solomo.
and Huram sendeth to him, by the hand of his servants, ships and servants knowing the sea, and they go with servants of Solomon to Ophir, and take thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and bring in unto king Solomon.
