2 Maũndũ 8
1 Thuutha wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, ihinda rĩrĩa Solomoni aahũthĩrire gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova o na nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki-rĩ,
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built Yahweh’s house and his own house,
2 Solomoni nĩaakire rĩngĩ matũũra marĩa aaheetwo nĩ Hiramu, na akĩmahe andũ a Isiraeli matũũre thĩinĩ wamo.
Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3 Solomoni agĩcooka agĩthiĩ Hamathu-Zoba na akĩrĩtaha.
Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩaka Tadimori kũu werũ-inĩ na matũũra manene mothe marĩa aakĩte kũu Hamathu ma kũigwo indo.
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
5 Nĩaakire Bethi-Horoni ya Mwena wa Igũrũ, na Bethi-Horoni ya Mwena wa Mũhuro rĩngĩ, marĩ matũũra manene mairige, marĩ na thingo, na ihingo, na mĩgĩĩko ya igera,
Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
6 o ũndũ ũmwe na Baalathu, na matũũra make mothe manene ma kũiga indo, na matũũra make mothe manene ma ngaari cia mbaara na mbarathi ciake, na agĩaka kĩrĩa gĩothe eerirĩirie kũu Jerusalemu, na Lebanoni, o na kũndũ guothe bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩa aathanaga.
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.
7 Andũ othe arĩa maatigaire kuuma kũrĩ Ahiti, na Aamori, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi (nao andũ acio matiarĩ Aisiraeli),
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—
8 ũguo nĩ kuuga atĩ, njiaro ciao iria ciatigarĩte bũrũri-inĩ, iria andũ a Isiraeli mataaninĩte, acio nĩo maandĩkithirio nĩ Solomoni matuĩke ngombo ciake cia kũrutithio wĩra na hinya, na noguo gũtũire nginya ũmũthĩ.
of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume—of them Solomon conscripted forced labor to this day.
9 No Solomoni ndaatuire andũ a Isiraeli ngombo cia wĩra wake; acio nĩo maarĩ andũ ake a kũrũa mbaara, o na aathi a anene ake, na aathi a ngaari ciake cia ita, na atwari a ngaari icio.
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.
10 O na ningĩ no-o maarĩ atongoria anene a Mũthamaki Solomoni, maarĩ anene 250 a kũrũgamĩrĩra andũ acio.
These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 Solomoni akĩruta mwarĩ wa Firaũni kuuma Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, akĩmũrehe nyũmba ya ũthamaki ĩrĩa aamwakĩire, tondũ oigire atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia wakwa ndangĩtũũra nyũmba ya Mũthamaki Daudi, mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nĩgũkorwo kũndũ kũrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova rĩtoonyete nĩ gũtheru.”
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 Yahweh’s ark has come are holy.”
12 Igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa Solomoni aakĩte mbere ya gĩthaku, hau nĩho Solomoni arutĩire Jehova maruta ma njino,
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on Yahweh’s altar which he had built before the porch,
13 O ta ũrĩa maabataranĩtie kũrutwo o mũthenya nĩ ũndũ wa maruta marĩa Musa aathanĩte ma Thabatũ, na ma Tũrũgamo twa Mweri, na ma ciathĩ ithatũ cia o mwaka, nĩcio Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, na Gĩathĩ gĩa Ciumia, na Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ.
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.
14 Kũrũmanĩrĩra na wathani ũrĩa watuĩtwo nĩ ithe Daudi, nĩamũrire ikundi cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa mawĩra mao, o na Alawii nĩguo matongoragie hĩndĩ ya kũgooca na ningĩ mateithagĩrĩrie athĩnjĩri-Ngai kũringana na mabataro ma o mũthenya. Ningĩ nĩamũrire ikundi cia arangĩri a ihingo marangagĩre ihingo mwanya mwanya, tondũ ũguo nĩguo Daudi, mũndũ wa Ngai, aathanĩte.
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.
15 Nao matiatigire kũrũmĩrĩra watho ũrĩa mũthamaki aathĩte athĩnjĩri-Ngai kana Alawii ũndũ-inĩ o wothe hamwe na ũmenyereri wa igĩĩna.
They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
16 Wĩra wa Solomoni wothe nĩwahingirio kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa mũthingi wa hekarũ ya Jehova wakirwo nginya ĩkĩrĩka. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio hekarũ ya Jehova ĩkĩrĩkio gwakwo.
Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of Yahweh’s house until it was finished. So Yahweh’s house was completed.
17 Ningĩ Solomoni agĩthiĩ Ezioni-Geberi na Elathu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Edomu.
Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18 Nake Hiramu akĩmũtũmĩra marikabu irũgamĩrĩirwo nĩ anene ake, andũ arĩa mooĩ ũhoro wa iria. Andũ acio, hamwe na andũ a Solomoni magĩtwarithia marikabu nginya Ofiri na magĩcooka makĩrehe taranda 450 cia thahabu, iria maatwarĩire Mũthamaki Solomoni.
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 fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
