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 son of David strengthens himself over his kingdom, and his God YHWH [is] with him, and makes him exceedingly great.
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 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 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.
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 (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 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 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.
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 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 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 In fong sac God el sikyak nu sel Solomon ac siyuk, “Mea kom lungse nga in sot nu sum?”
In that night God has appeared to Solomon and says to him, “Ask—what do I give to you?”
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 says to God, “You have done great kindness with my father David, and have caused me to reign 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 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 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?”
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 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 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 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.”
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 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.
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 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 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 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 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 Mwet kulansap fulat lun tokosra pa nununku pisen horse ma tuku Musri ac Cilicia me,
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 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 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.
