< 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, strengthened himself over his kingdom, —and, Yahweh, his God, was with him, and made him surpassingly 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 gave word to all Israel—to the rulers of thousands, and hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the leaders of all Israel, ancestral chiefs;
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 Solomon, and all the convocation with him, went to the high place that was in Gibeon, —for, there, was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of Yahweh made in the desert.
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.
Howbeit, the ark of God, had David brought up from Kiriath-jearim, into the place that David had prepared for it, —for he had pitched for it a tent, 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.
Also, the altar of bronze that Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur had made, was there before the habitation of Yahweh, —so Solomon and the convocation sought it.
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 went up thither, unto the altar of bronze before Yahweh, which belonged to the tent of meeting, —and caused to go up thereon a thousand ascending-sacrifices.
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.
During that night, God appeared unto Solomon, —and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee.
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 said unto God, Thou thyself, didst deal with David my father in great lovingkindness, —and hast made me king 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 Yahweh Elohim, let thy word with David my father be brought to pass, -for, thou, hast made me king over a people, for multitude like 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, wisdom and knowledge, give thou unto me, that I may go out before this people, and may come in, —for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?
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 said unto Solomon, Because this was near thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, or the life of them that hate thee, nor even, many days, hast thou asked, —but hast asked for thyself, wisdom and knowledge, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king,
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.
wisdom and knowledge, are granted unto thee, —moreover, riches and wealth and honour, will I give thee, such as the kings who were before thee did not possess, neither shall they who come after thee possess the like.
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 came from the high place that was in Gibeon unto Jerusalem, from before the tent of meeting, —and reigned 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 gathered chariots and horsemen, and came to have a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —and he settled them in chariot cities, 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 made silver and gold in Jerusalem, like stones, and, cedars, made he like the sycomores that are in the lowland, 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 horses which Solomon had were, an export, out of Egypt, —and a, company of royal merchants, used to fetch a drove, 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 built and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot, for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse, for a hundred and fifty, -and, so, for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria, by their means, brought they them forth.
