2 Ihe E Mere 8
1 Nʼọgwụgwụ iri afọ abụọ, mgbe Solomọn ji wuo ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị na ụlọeze nke ya onwe ya,
And it cometh to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon hath built the house of Jehovah, and his own house.
2 Solomọn wugharịrị obodo ndị ahụ Hiram nyere ya, mee ka ndị Izrel biri nʼime ha.
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 Solomọn gara Hamat-Zoba, merie ha.
And Solomon goeth to Hamath-Zobah, and layeth hold upon it;
4 O wuru obodo Tadmọ nke dị nʼọzara na ọtụtụ obodo nchịkọba ihe na Hamat.
and he buildeth Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the cities of store that he hath built in Hamath.
5 O wugharịkwara obodo Bet-Horon nke dị nʼelu elu, wuokwa Ndịda Bet-Horon ka ọ ghọọ obodo e wusiri ike nke nwere mgbidi, ibo ọnụ ụzọ ama na mkpọrọ e ji kpọchie ha.
And he buildeth Beth-Horon the upper, and Beth-Horon the lower — cities of defence, with walls, two-leaved doors, and bar —
6 O wukwara obodo Baalat na obodo niile nke ebe ịchịkọba ihe, na obodo niile ebe idebe ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya ya niile. O wuru ihe ọbụla gụrụ obi ya agụụ iwu na Jerusalem, Lebanọn na nʼoke ala ahụ niile ọ na-achị.
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 Ndị niile fọdụrụ ndụ nʼetiti ndị Het, ndị Amọrait, ndị Periz, ndị Hiv na Jebus (ndị a abụghị ndị Izrel),
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 ndị ụmụ ụmụ ha fọdụrụ nʼala ahụ, ndị ahụ ndị Izrel na-ebibighị, ndị a ka Solomọn mere ndị ọrụ mmanye na ndị ohu, nke a bụkwa ọnọdụ ha ruo taa.
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 Ma Solomọn emeghị ka onye Izrel ọbụla bụrụ ohu, maka ọrụ ya, kama ha bụ ndị ikom agha, ndịisi ndị ọchịagha ya, ndịisi ụgbọ agha na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya agha ya.
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 Ha bụkwa ndịisi ozi nke eze Solomọn, narị ndị ikom abụọ na iri ise bụ ndịisi na-elekọta ndị mmadụ.
and these [are] heads of the officers whom king Solomon hath, two hundred and fifty who are rulers among the people.
11 Solomọn kpọpụtara ada Fero site nʼobodo Devid, gaa nʼụlọeze nke o wuuru ya, nʼihi na ọ sịrị, “Nwunye m agaghị ebi nʼụlọeze Devid, bụ eze Izrel, nʼihi na ebe ọbụla igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị banyere abụrụla ebe dị nsọ.”
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 Emesịa, Solomọn chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja Onyenwe anyị, nke o wuru nʼihu mpụta ọnụ ụlọ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ,
Then hath Solomon caused to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the altar of Jehovah that he built before the porch,
13 ọbụladị dịka iwu metụtara aja e kwesiri ịchụ kwa ụbọchị si dị, bụ nke Mosis nyere nʼiwu. Aja ndị a bụ maka Ụbọchị Izuike, Ọnwa Ọhụrụ na ụdị mmemme atọ a na-eme nʼafọ, ndị bụ mmemme achịcha ekoghị eko, mmemme izu ụka asaa na mmemme ụlọ Ikwu.
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 O sitere nʼusoro ije ozi nke Devid, họpụtara otu ndị nchụaja ọrụ dị iche iche ha na-arụ ụbọchị niile. O nyekwara ndị Livayị ọrụ idu nʼotuto a na-enye Chineke na inyere ndị nchụaja aka ime ihe ụbọchị ọbụla nʼụbọchị ya. Kenyekwa ndị na-eche ọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ahụ niile nche oke ọrụ ha nʼotu nʼotu, nʼihi na nke a bụ ihe Devid, onye nke Chineke nyere nʼiwu.
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 Ha ewezugaghị onwe ha nʼiso iwu niile eze nyere ndị nchụaja maọbụ ndị Livayị banyere ihe ọbụla na ihe gbasakwara ụlọakụ niile.
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 A rụzuru ọrụ niile Solomọn zubere ịrụ, site nʼụbọchị a tọrọ ntọala ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị tutu ruo mgbe ewuchara ya. Ya mere, e wuchara ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
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 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn gara Eziọn Geba na Elat nke dị nʼọnụ osimiri, nʼala Edọm.
Then hath Solomon gone to Ezion-Geber, and unto Elath, on the border of the sea, in the land of Edom;
18 Hiram zigaara ya ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri nke ndị ikom ya na-anya ụgbọ mmiri na-edu, bụ ndị maara ihe banyere ime njem nʼosimiri nke ọma. Ndị a, ha na ndị ikom Solomọn nyaara ụgbọ gaa Ọfịa site nʼebe ahụ bulatara eze Solomọn, ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya ruru puku kilogram iri na ise na narị atọ.
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.
