Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.
2 Sai Solomon ya yi magana ga dukan Isra’ila, ga shugabannin mayaƙa dubu-dubu da shugabannin mayaƙa ɗari-ɗari, ga alƙalai da kuma ga dukan shugabanni a Isra’ila, kawunan iyalai,
Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ households.
3 Solomon tare da dukan taron suka tafi masujadan kan tudu a Gibeyon, gama Tentin Sujadar Allah yana can, wanda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya yi a hamada.
Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for God’s Tent of Meeting was there, which the LORD’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.
4 Dawuda ya riga ya haura da akwatin alkawarin Allah daga Kiriyat Yeyarim zuwa inda ya shirya dominsa, domin yă kafa masa tenti a Urushalima.
But David had brought God’s ark up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
5 Amma bagaden tagullar da Bezalel ɗan Uri, ɗan Hur, ya yi a Gibeyon a gaba tabanakul na Ubangiji; saboda haka Solomon da taron suka neme nufin Ubangiji a can.
Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the LORD’s tabernacle; and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Solomon ya haura zuwa bagaden tagulla a gaban Ubangiji a cikin Tentin Sujada, ya kuma miƙa hadayu na ƙonawa dubbai a kansa.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
7 A wannan dare Allah ya bayyana ga Solomon, ya ce masa, “Roƙi duk abin da kake so in ba ka.”
That night, God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for what you want me to give you.”
8 Solomon ya amsa wa Allah, “Ka nuna alheri mai girma ga Dawuda mahaifina ka kuma naɗa ni sarki a matsayinsa.
Solomon said to God, “You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 To, yanzu, ya Ubangiji Allah, ka cika alkawarin da ka yi ga mahaifina Dawuda yă tabbata, gama ka naɗa ni sarki a bisa mutanen da suka wuce ƙirge kamar ƙurar ƙasa.
Now, LORD God, let your promise to David my father be established; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
10 Ka ba ni hikima da sani, don in iya jagorance wannan mutane, gama wa zai iya shugabance wannan jama’arka mai girma?”
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of yours?”
11 Allah ya ce wa Solomon, “Da yake wannan ne sha’awar zuciyarka, ba ka kuwa nemi wadata, arziki ko girma ba, ba ka kuma nemi mutuwar abokan gābanka ba, da yake kuma ba ka nemi tsawon rai ba, amma ka nemi hikima da sani don ka shugabanci jama’ata wadda na naɗa ka sarki,
God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, honour, or the life of those who hate you, nor yet have you asked for long life; but have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king,
12 saboda haka za a ba ka hikima da sani. Zan kuma ba ka wadata, arziki da girma, waɗanda babu wani sarki kafin kai da ya taɓa kasance da su kuma babu wani a bayanka da zai kasance da su.”
therefore wisdom and knowledge is granted to you. I will give you riches, wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had who have been before you, and none after you will have.”
13 Sa’an nan Solomon ya tafi Urushalima daga masujadar kan tudu a Gibeyon, da kuma daga gaban Tentin Sujada. Ya kuma yi mulki a bisa Isra’ila.
So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, to Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.

Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. He had one thousand and four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
15 Sarki ya sa azurfa da zinariya suka zama barkatai a Urushalima kamar duwatsu, al’ul kuma kamar itatuwan fir a gindin tsaunuka.
The king made silver and gold to be as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars to be as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
16 Aka shigo da dawakan Solomon daga Masar da kuma daga Kuye’yan kasuwan fada suka saye su daga Kuye.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 Suka shigo da kekunan yaƙi daga Masar a kan shekel ɗari shida-shida na azurfa, doki kuma a kan shekel ɗari da hamsin-hamsin. Suka kuma riƙa fitar da su ƙasashen waje zuwa dukan sarakunan Hittiyawa da na Arameyawa.
They imported from Egypt then exported a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver and a horse for one hundred and fifty. They also exported them to the Hittite kings and the Syrian kings.
