1 Bakonzi 9
1 Sima na Salomo kosilisa kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe kosala nyonso oyo azalaki na yango posa,
When Salomon had finished the building of the house of ye Lord, and the kings palace, and all that Salomon desired and minded to do,
2 Yawe abimelaki Salomo na mbala ya mibale, ndenge kaka abimelaki ye na mbala ya liboso, na Gabaoni.
Then the Lord appeared vnto Salomon the second time, as he appeared vnto him at Gibeon.
3 Yawe alobaki na ye: « Nayoki losambo mpe libondeli na yo, oyo osali liboso na Ngai; nabulisi Tempelo oyo otongi mpo ete natia Kombo na Ngai kati na yango mpo na libela. Miso mpe motema na Ngai ekobanda kozala kuna tango nyonso.
And the Lord sayd vnto him, I haue heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I haue halowed this house (which thou hast built) to put my Name there for euer, and mine eyes, and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
4 Mpo na yo, soki okotambola liboso na Ngai ndenge Davidi, tata na yo, atambolaki na motema malamu mpe na motema ya sembo; soki okosala nyonso oyo natindaki yo mpe okobatela mibeko mpe malako na Ngai,
And if thou wilt walke before mee (as Dauid thy father walked in purenesse of heart and in righteousnesse) to doe according to al that I haue commanded thee, and keepe my statutes, and my iudgements,
5 nakolendisa mpo na libela kiti na yo ya bokonzi kati na Isalaele, ndenge nalobaki yango epai ya Davidi, tata na yo: ‹ Okotikalaka kozanga te moto oyo akokitana na kiti ya bokonzi ya Isalaele. ›
Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdome vpon Israel for euer, as I promised to Dauid thy father, saying, Thou shalt not want a man vpon the throne of Israel.
6 Kasi soki yo mpe bana na yo ya mibali bopengwi mosika na Ngai; soki botosi te mibeko mpe malako na Ngai, oyo natie liboso na bino; soki bokeyi kosalela banzambe mosusu mpe kofukamela yango,
But if ye and your children turne away from mee, and wil not keepe my commandements, and my statutes (which I haue set before you) but go and serue other gods, and worship them,
7 nakolongola Isalaele kati na mabele oyo napesaki ye, nakobwaka mosika ya elongi na Ngai Tempelo oyo nabulisi mpo na Kombo na Ngai, mpe Isalaele akokoma eloko ya kotiola mpe ya soni kati na bikolo nyonso.
Then will I cutte off Israel from the lande, which I haue giuen them, and the house which I haue halowed for my Name, will I cast out of my sight, and Israel shall be a prouerbe, and a common talke among all people.
8 Atako Tempelo oyo ezali sik’oyo kitoko penza, kasi bato nyonso oyo bakoleka pembeni na yango bakokamwa mpe bakoloba: ‹ Mpo na nini Yawe asali makambo ya boye na mokili oyo mpe na Tempelo oyo? ›
Euen this hie house shall bee so: euery one that passeth by it, shalbe astonied, and shall hisse, and they shall say, Why hath the Lord done thus vnto this land and to this house?
9 Bakoyanola: ‹ Ezali mpo ete basundolaki Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, oyo abimisaki bango na Ejipito mpe bamipesaki na banzambe mosusu, bafukamelaki mpe basalelaki yango; yango wana Yawe ayeisi likolo na bango pasi oyo nyonso. › »
And they shall answere, Because they forsooke the Lord their God, which brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and haue taken holde vpon other gods, and haue worshipped them, and serued them, therfore hath the Lord brought vpon them all this euill.
10 Sima na mibu tuku mibale oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ndako na ye moko,
And at the ende of twentie yeeres, when Salomon had buylded the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the Kings palace,
11 akabelaki Irami, mokonzi ya Tiri, bingumba tuku mibale kati na Galile, pamba te Irami asungaki Salomo na nyonso oyo azalaki na yango na bosenga: mabaya ya sedele, ya sipele mpe wolo.
(For the which Hiram the King of Tyrus had brought to Salomon timber of cedar, and firre trees, and golde, and whatsoeuer he desired) then King Salomon gaue to Hiram twentie cities in the land of Galil.
12 Irami abimaki wuta na Tiri, mokili na ye, mpo na kotala bingumba oyo Salomo akabelaki ye, kasi asepelaki na yango te.
And Hiram came out from Tyrus to see the cities which Salomon had giuen him, and they pleased him not.
13 Alobaki: « Ndeko na ngai, bingumba nini oyo opesi ngai? » Yango wana abengaki bingumba yango mokili ya Kabuli, kombo oyo etikala kino lelo.
Therefore hee sayde, What cities are these which thou hast giuen me, my brother? And hee called them the land of Cabul vnto this day.
14 Nzokande, Irami apesaki Salomo bakilo nkoto misato na nkama mitano ya wolo.
And Hiram had sent the King sixe score talents of gold.
15 Salomo asalisaki bana ya Isalaele misala makasi mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako na ye moko, Milo, mir ya Yelusalemi, Atsori, Megido mpe Gezeri.
And this is the cause of the tribute why King Salomon raised tribute, to wit, to builde the house of the Lord, and his owne house, and Millo, and the wall of Ierusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, amataki na Gezeri, abotolaki yango na maboko ya bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna, abomaki bango, atumbaki engumba yango na moto mpe akabaki yango epai ya mwana na ye ya mwasi oyo akomaki mwasi ya Salomo.
Pharaoh King of Egypt had come vp, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slew the Canaanites, that dwelt in the citie, and gaue it for a present vnto his daughter Salomons wife.
17 Yango wana Salomo atongaki lisusu Beti-Oroni ya likolo mpe Beti-Oroni ya se,
(Therefore Salomon builte Gezer and Beth-horon the nether,
18 Baalati mpe Tamari kati na esobe ya mokili,
And Baalath and Tamor in the wildernes of the land,
19 bingumba nyonso epai wapi azalaki kobomba biloko na ye, bingumba epai wapi azalaki kobomba bashar mpe bampunda na ye. Salomo atongaki lisusu nyonso oyo azalaki na yango posa kati na Yelusalemi, kati na Libani mpe kati na mokili nyonso oyo azalaki kokamba.
And all the cities of store, that Salomon had, euen cities for charets, and cities for horsemen, and all that Salomon desired and woulde build in Ierusalem, and in Lebanon and in all the land of his dominion)
20 Batikali nyonso kati na bato ya Amori, ya Iti, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi, ba-oyo bazalaki bana ya Isalaele te,
Al the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hiuites, and Iebusites, which were not of the children of Israel:
21 ba-oyo bana na bango batikalaki kati na mokili oyo bana ya Isalaele babebisaki, Salomo azwaki bango mpo na misala makasi ya bawumbu, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
To wit, their children that were left after them in the lande, whome the children of Israel were not able to destroy, those did Salomon make tributaries vnto this day.
22 Kasi Salomo akomisaki te bana ya Isalaele bawumbu mpo na kosala misala makasi na ye, pamba te bazalaki bato ya bitumba, bakalaka na ye ya lokumu, bakalaka na ye, bakonzi ya basoda na ye, bakonzi ya bashar na ye mpe ya basoda na ye, oyo batambolisaka bashar.
But of the children of Israel did Salomon make no bondmen: but they were men of warre and his seruants, and his princes, and his captaines, and rulers of his charets and his horsemen.
23 Tala motango ya bakalaka ya lokumu oyo batindamaki mpo na kokamba bato oyo bazalaki kosala misala ya Salomo: bakalaka nkama mitano na tuku mitano.
These were the princes of the officers, that were ouer Salomons worke: euen fiue hundreth and fiftie, and they ruled the people that wrought in the worke.
24 Sima na mwana mwasi ya Faraon kolongwa na engumba ya Davidi mpo na kokende na ndako oyo Salomo atongelaki ye, Salomo atongaki Milo.
And Pharaohs daughter came vp from the citie of Dauid vnto the house which Salomon had built for her: then did he buylde Millo.
25 Mbala misato kati na mobu, Salomo azalaki kobonza bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani na likolo ya etumbelo oyo atongaki mpo na Yawe; azalaki mpe kotumba malasi ya ansa na likolo ya etumbelo oyo ezalaki liboso ya Yawe. Ezalaki bongo nde misala ezalaki kokokisama kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
And thrise a yere did Salomon offer burnt offringes and peace offrings vpon the altar which he built vnto the Lord: and hee burnt incense vpon the altar that was before the Lord, when hee had finished the house.
26 Mokonzi Salomo asalisaki masuwa ebele na engumba Etsioni-Geberi oyo ezali pene ya Eyiloti, pembeni ya ebale monene ya Barozo, kati na mokili ya Edomi.
Also King Salomon made a nauie of ships in Ezeon-geber, which is beside Eloth, and the brinke of the red Sea, in the land of Edom.
27 Irami atindaki na masuwa yango basali na ye, bato oyo bayebaki kotambolisa malamu masuwa kati na ebale monene; bazalaki elongo na basali ya Salomo.
And Hiram sent with the nauie his seruats, that were mariners, and had knowledge of the sea, with the seruants of Salomon.
28 Bakendeki na Ofiri epai wapi bazwaki bakilo nkoto zomi na mibale ya wolo oyo bamemaki epai ya mokonzi Salomo.
And they came to Ophir and sette from thence foure hundreth and twentie talents of gold, and brought it to King Salomon.
