2 Ihe E Mere 1
1 Solomọn nwa Devid mere onwe ya ka o guzosie ike nʼalaeze ya, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya nọnyeere ya, meekwa ka ọ dị ukwuu hie nne.
Then Salomon the sonne of Dauid was confirmed in his kingdome: and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him highly.
2 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn gwara ndị Izrel niile okwu, ya bụ, ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, na ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ narị ndị agha, na ndị ikpe, na ndị ndu niile nọ nʼIzrel, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ niile.
And Salomon spake vnto all Israel, to the captaines of thousandes, and of hundreths, and to the iudges, and to all the gouernours in all Israel, euen the chiefe fathers.
3 Solomọn ya na ọgbakọ ahụ niile, gara nʼebe dị elu nke Gibiọn, nʼihi nʼebe ahụ ka ụlọ nzute Chineke dị, bụ nke Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị wuru nʼọzara.
So Salomon and all the Congregation with him went to the hie place that was at Gibeon: for there was the Tabernacle of the Congregation of God which Moses the seruant of the Lord had made in the wildernesse.
4 Ma Devid esitelarị na Kiriat Jearim buputa igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ, bulaa ya nʼụlọ ikwu nke o wuru maka ya na Jerusalem.
But the Arke of God had Dauid brought vp from Kiriath-iearim, when Dauid had made preparation for it: for he had pitched a tent for it in Ierusalem.
5 Ebe ịchụ aja bronz ahụ Bezalel nwa Uri, nwa Hua wuru dịkwa na Gibiọn, nʼihu ụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị. Solomọn na ọgbakọ ahụ na-ajụta ya ase nʼebe bronz ahụ.
Moreouer the brasen altar that Bezaleel the sonne of Vri, the sonne of Hur had made, did hee set before the Tabernacle of the Lord: and Salomon and the Congregation sought it.
6 Solomọn jere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ e ji bronz kpụọ, nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼime ụlọ nzute, jiri anụ ụlọ ọnụọgụgụ ha dị otu puku chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nʼelu ya.
And Salomon offred there before the Lord vpon the brasen altar that was in the Tabernacle of the Congregation: euen a thousand burnt offrings offred he vpon it.
7 Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ na Gibiọn, Onyenwe anyị mere ka Solomọn hụ ya anya, sị ya, “Rịọọ ihe ọbụla ị chọrọ ka m nye gị.”
The same night did God appeare vnto Salomon, and sayde vnto him, Aske what I shall giue thee.
8 Ma Solomọn zara Chineke, sị, “I gosila nna m bụ Devid obi ebere dị ukwuu. Ugbu a, i meekwala m eze nʼọnọdụ ya
And Salomon sayde vnto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy vnto Dauid my father and hast made me to reigne in his stead.
9 Ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke, ka nkwa gị nke i kwere nna m, bụ Devid, bụrụ ihe e mezuru, nʼihi na ị meela m eze ndị a bara ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ dịka aja nke ala.
Nowe therefore, O Lord God, let thy promise vnto Dauid my father be true: for thou hast made mee King ouer a great people, like to the dust of the earth.
10 Biko, nye m amamihe na nghọta, nke m ga-eji edu ndị a napụ na-abata, nʼihi na onye pụrụ ịchịkọta ndị gị a dị ukwuu?”
Giue me now wisdome and knowledge, that I may go out and go in before this people: for who can iudge this thy great people?
11 Chineke zara Solomọn sị ya, “Ebe ọ bụ na ị rịọghị m ka m nye gị akụnụba, maọbụ ogologo ndụ; ebe ọ bụkwa na ị rịọghị m ka m mee ka ndị kpọrọ gị asị nwụsịa, maọbụ ka m mee ka i nwee nsọpụrụ karịa, kama mkpa na-akpa gị bụ ka m nye gị amamihe na nghọta ị ga-eji duzie ndị m, nke m mere gị eze ha.
And God sayde to Salomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, treasures nor honour, nor the liues of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life, but hast asked for thee wisdome and knowledge that thou mightest iudge my people, ouer whome I haue made thee King,
12 Ya mere, enyela gị amamihe na nghọta dịka ị rịọrọ. Aga m enyekwa gị akụnụba na nsọpụrụ dị ukwuu, nke eze ọbụla nke buru gị ụzọ na-enwebeghị. Ọ dịkwaghị onye nke ga-eso gị ga-enwe ụdị ya.”
Wisdome and knowledge is granted vnto thee, and I will giue thee riches and treasures and honour, so that there hath not bene the like among the Kings which were before thee, neither after thee shall there be the like.
13 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn sitere nʼebe dị elu nke Gibiọn, site nʼihu ụlọ nzute ahụ, lọghachi na Jerusalem. Ọ chịrị dịka eze nʼIzrel.
Then Salomon came from the hie place, that was at Gibeon, to Ierusalem from before the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and reigned ouer Israel.
14 Solomọn chịkọbara ọtụtụ ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya dị iche iche. O nwere ụgbọ agha dị otu puku na narị anọ na ịnyịnya agha dị puku iri na abụọ nʼọnụọgụgụ, ndị o debere ụfọdụ nʼime ha nʼobodo ụgbọ agha ya ma ndị ọzọ dị na Jerusalem ebe ya onwe ya nọ.
And Salomon gathered the charets and horesemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome he placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
15 Eze mere ka ọlaọcha na ọlaedo baa ụba na Jerusalem, dịka nkume efu. O mekwara ka osisi sida dị ọtụtụ dịka osisi sikamọ nke dị nʼala ala ugwu dị iche iche
And the King gaue siluer and gold at Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedar trees as the wilde figge trees, that are abundantly in the playne.
16 A na-esite nʼIjipt nakwa ala Kue atụbatara Solomọn ịnyịnya. Ndị ahịa eze na-azụta ha site na Kue nʼọnụ ahịa a na-ere ha nʼoge ahụ.
Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the fine linen for a price.
17 Ha sitere nʼIjipt tụbata otu ụgbọ agha nʼọnụ ahịa narị shekel ọlaọcha isii; jirikwa otu narị shekel na iri shekel ise zụta otu ịnyịnya. Ha zipụkwara ha nye ndị eze niile nke ndị Het na ndị Aram.
They came vp also and brought out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer, that is an horse for an hundreth and fiftie: and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites, and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
