Luo Chronicle 1

1 Solomon, wen natul Tokosra David, el leumi tokosrai Israel ke ku, ac LEUM GOD El akinsewowoyal ac arulana akkeyal.

AND SOLOMON the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.

2 Tokosra Solomon el supwalik kas nu sin mwet fulat su kol fin tausin, fin foko, oayapa mwet kol nukewa lun government, sifen sou nukewa, ac mwet nukewa saya,

And Solomon spoke unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers' houses.

3 ac sap tuh elos nukewa in welul som nu in nien alu in acn Gibeon. Elos som nu we mweyen Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD oan we, ma Moses mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el tuh orala yen mwesis.

So Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.

4 (Tusruktu Tuptup in Wuleang oan Jerusalem, in sie lohm nuknuk ma Tokosra David el tuh tulokunak ke pacl se el use Tuptup sac liki acn Kiriath Jearim.)

But the ark of God had David brought up from Kiriath-jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.

5 Loang se orekla ke osra bronze ma orekla sel Bezalel, wen natul Uri wen natul Hur, oan pac in acn Gibeon, ke mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD. Tokosra Solomon ac mwet nukewa elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD we.

Moreover the brazen altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, had been put before the tabernacle of the LORD; and Solomon and the congregation sought unto it.

6 In acn sac, tokosra el alu nu sin LEUM GOD ac kisakin mwe kisa lal fin loang bronze sac. Oasr sie tausin kosro anwuki ac kisakinyuk fac.

And Solomon offered there, upon the brazen altar before the LORD, which was at the tent of meeting, he offered a thousand burnt-offerings upon it.

7 In fong sac God el sikyak nu sel Solomon ac siyuk, “Mea kom lungse nga in sot nu sum?”

In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him: 'Ask what I shall give thee.'

8 Solomon el fahk, “Kom tuh akkalemye lung lulap lom nu sel David papa tumuk pacl nukewa, ac inge kom oru tuh nga in aolul in tokosra.

And Solomon said unto God: 'Thou hast shown great kindness unto David my father, and hast made me king in his stead.

9 O LEUM GOD, akpwayeye wulela se kom tuh orala nu sin papa tumuk. Kom orala nga in tokosra fin mwet puspis su tia ku in oekyukla.

Now, O LORD God, let Thy promise unto David my father be established; for Thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.

10 Ke ma inge ase nu sik lalmwetmet ac etauk, su nga enenu in sang kololos. Kom fin tia oru ouinge, nga ac kol fuka mutunfacl lulap se lom inge?”

Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this Thy people, that is so great?'

11 God El topuk nu sel Solomon, “Suwohs sulela lom an. Kom tia siyuk ke mwe kasrup ku ma saok, ku ke pwengpeng, ku in anwuki mwet lokoalok lom, ku ke moul loeloes lom sifacna. A kom siyuk ke lalmwetmet ac etauk, tuh kom in ku in sang kol mwet luk su nga oru kom in tokosra faclos.

And God said to Solomon: 'Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life, but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge My people, over whom I have made thee king;

12 Nga ac fah sot nu sum lalmwetmet ac etauk. Ac sayen ma inge, nga fah sot mwe kasrup, ma saok, ac pwengpeng tuh in yohk liki na tokosra nukewa su meet liki kom, ku su ac fah tuku tukum.”

wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee, and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.'

13 Ouinge Solomon el som liki nien alu sac in acn Gibeon, yen Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD oan we, ac folokla nu Jerusalem. Acn se inge pa nien muta lal Solomon ke el tokosra fin mwet Israel.

So Solomon came from his journey to the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.

14 El akpusye chariot lal ke sie tausin angfoko, ac pisen horse ke singoul uo tausin nu sin mwet mweun lal. Kutu sin ma inge el filiya in oan Jerusalem, ac ma saya el supwala in oan ke siti saya.

And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.

15 In pacl se ke el tokosra ah, mwet Jerusalem elos pangon silver ac gold ma pilasr oana eot, ac sak cedar su wangin suna we meet, inge arulana pukanten oana sak sycamore su kap pe eol in acn Judah.

And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore-trees that are in the Lowland, for abundance.

16 Mwet kulansap fulat lun tokosra pa nununku pisen horse ma tuku Musri ac Cilicia me,

And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; also out of Keve, the king's merchants buying them of the men of Keve at a price.

17 ac oayapa pisen chariot ma tuku Egypt me. Elos kitala horse ac chariot nu sin tokosra lun mwet Hit ac tokosra lun acn Syria. Molin chariot se pa ipin silver onfoko, ac molin horse soko pa ipin silver siofok lumngaul.

And they fetched up, and brought 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 Aram, did they bring them out by their means.
