< II Oihanaalii 1 >
1 U A paa ia Solomona, ke keiki a Davida, kona aupuni, a me ia pu o Iehova kona Akua, a hookiekie nui mai la ia ia.
And Solomon son of David strengthens himself over his kingdom, and his God YHWH [is] with him, and makes him exceedingly great.
2 Olelo aku la o Solomona i ka Iseraela a pau, i na luna o na tausani a me ko na haneri, a me na lunakanawai, a me kela luna keia luna o ka Iseraela a pau, ka poe koikoi o na makua.
And Solomon says to all Israel, to heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, and to the ones judging, and to every honorable one of all Israel, heads of the fathers,
3 A hele aku la o Solomona, a me ia pu ka ahakanaka a pau, i kahi kiekie, aia no ma Gibeona; no ka mea, malaila no ka halelewa o ke anainakanaka o ke Akua, ka mea a Mose ke kauwa a Iehova i hana'i ma ka waonahele.
and they go—Solomon, and all the assembly with him—to the high place that [is] in Gibeon, for God’s Tent of Meeting has been there, that Moses, servant of YHWH, made in the wilderness,
4 Aka, o ka pahu berita o ke Akua, ua lawe mai o Davida mai Kiriataiearima aku, i kahi ana i kukulu ai no ia mea; no ka mea, ua kukulu no ia i halelewa no ia mea ma Ierusalema.
but David had the Ark of God brought up from Kirjath-Jearim to the [place] David had prepared for it, for he stretched out a tent for it in Jerusalem;
5 A o ke kuahu keleawe ka mea a Bezaleela ke keiki a Uri, ke keiki a Hura, i hana'i, malaila ia imua o ka noho o Iehova. A imi pinepine o Solomona a me ke anainakanaka ilaila.
and the altar of bronze that Bezaleel son of Uri, son of Hur made, he put before the Dwelling Place of YHWH; and Solomon and the assembly seek Him [there].
6 A mohai aku la o Solomona malaila maluna o ke kuahu keleawe imua o Iehova, aia ma ka halelewa o ke anainakanaka. A mohai aku la oi'a maluna olaila, i na mohaikuni hookahi tausani.
And Solomon goes up there, on the altar of bronze, before YHWH, that [is] at the Tent of Meeting, and causes one thousand burnt-offerings to ascend on it.
7 Ia po no ikea mai la ke Akua e Solomona, olelo mai ia ia, E noi mai oe i ka mea a'u e haawi aku ai ia oe.
In that night God has appeared to Solomon and says to him, “Ask—what do I give to you?”
8 I aku la o Solomona i ke Akua, Ua hoike mai oe i ke aloha nui ia Davida i ko'u makuakane, a hoalii oe ia'u mahope ona.
And Solomon says to God, “You have done great kindness with my father David, and have caused me to reign in his stead.
9 Ano hoi, e Iehova, e ke Akua e, e hooko mai i ka olelo au i olelo mai ai ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane; no ka mea, nau no i hoalii mai ia'u maluna o ka poe kanaka i like ka nui me na huna lepo o ka honua.
Now, O YHWH God, Your word with my father David is steadfast, for You have caused me to reign over a people [as] numerous as the dust of the earth;
10 Ano, e haawi mai ia'u i ka naauao, a me ke akamai i puka aku au iwaho imua o keia lahuikanaka, a komo mai no hoi, no ka mea, ia wai la e hiki ai ke malama i keia poe kanaka nui ou?
now, give wisdom and knowledge to me, and I go out before this people, and I come in, for who judges this—Your great people?”
11 Olelo mai la ke Akua ia Solomona, No ka mea, aia no ma kou naau keia, aole oe i noi mai i ka waiwai a me ka hanohano, a me ka make ana o kou poe enemi, aole no hoi oe i noi mai i na la he nui loa; aka, ua noi mai oe nou i ka naauao, a me ke akamai, i hiki ia oe ke hoomalu i ko'u poe kanaka maluna o lakou i hoalii aku ai au ia oe;
And God says to Solomon, “Because that this has been with your heart, and you have not asked for riches, wealth, and honor, and the life of those hating you, and also have not asked for many days, and ask for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you judge My people over which I have caused you to reign—
12 Nolaila, ua haawiia ia oe ka naauao, a me ke akamai, a e haawi aku no hoi au ia oe i ka waiwai, a me ka hanohano: aole pela kekahi o na'lii mamua, aole no hoi he mea like mamuli aku.
the wisdom and the knowledge is given to you, and riches and wealth and honor I [also] give to you, that there has not been so to the kings who [are] before you, and after you it is not so.”
13 Hele mai la o Solomona mai kahi kiekio mai, ma Gibeona, a hiki i Ierusalema, maimua mai o ka halelewa o ke anainakanaka, a noho alii iho la ia maluna o ka Iseraela.
And Solomon comes in to Jerusalem [from] the high place that [is] in Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, and reigns over Israel,
14 A houluulu o Solomona i na kaa, a me na hooholo lio; aia no ia ia na kaa hookahi tausani, a me na haneri eha, a me na hooholo lio he umikumamalua tausani. A waiho oia ia mau mea ma na kulanakauhale no na kaa, a ma kahi o ke alii ma Ierusalema.
and Solomon gathers chariots and horsemen, and he has one thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he places them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem.
15 A hoolilo ae la ke alii i ke kala a me ke gula ma Ierusalema e like me na pohaku; i kona imi ana no hoi, nui iho la na laau kedera e like me na laau sukomorea ma ke awawa.
And the king makes the silver and the gold in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he made as sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.
16 A ua kaiia mai na lio no Solomona mai Aigupita mai, a na na huakai kalepa a ke alii i lawe ma ke kumukuai.
And the source of the horses that [are] for Solomon [is] from Egypt and from Keva; merchants of the king take [them] from Keva at a price,
17 A kii aku la lakou a kai mai, mai Aigupita mai, i ke kaa hookahi, no na haneri sekela kala eono, a i ka lio no ka haneri me kanalima. A pela no lakou i lawe mai ai no na'lii a pau o ka Heta, a me na'lii o Suria ma ko lakou lima.
and they come up, and bring out a chariot from Egypt for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty, and so for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram—they bring [them] out by their hand.
