1 Bakonzi 9
1 Sima na Salomo kosilisa kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe kosala nyonso oyo azalaki na yango posa,
And it comes to pass, at Solomon’s finishing to build the house of YHWH, and the house of the king, and all the desire of Solomon that he delighted to do,
2 Yawe abimelaki Salomo na mbala ya mibale, ndenge kaka abimelaki ye na mbala ya liboso, na Gabaoni.
that YHWH appears to Solomon a second time, as He appeared to him in 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 YHWH says to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication with which you have made supplication before Me; I have hallowed this house that you have built to put My Name there for all time, and My eyes and My heart have been there [for] all the days.
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 you—if you walk before Me as your father David walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, [and] you keep My statutes and My judgments,
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 I have established the throne of your kingdom over Israel for all time, as I spoke to your father David, saying, A man of yours is never cut off from [being] on 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,
If you at all turn back—you and your sons—from after Me, and do not keep My commands [and] My statutes that I have set before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to 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 I have cut off Israel from the face of the ground that I have given to them, and the house that I have hallowed for My Name I send away from My presence, and Israel has been for an allegory and for a byword among all the peoples;
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? ›
as for this house [that] is high, everyone passing by it is astonished, and has hissed, and they have said, Why has YHWH done this to 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 have said, Because that they have forsaken their God YHWH, who brought out their fathers from the land of Egypt, and they lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them and serve them; therefore YHWH has brought all this calamity on them.”
10 Sima na mibu tuku mibale oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ndako na ye moko,
And it comes to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon has built the two houses, the house of YHWH, and the house of the king.
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.
Hiram king of Tyre has assisted Solomon with cedar-trees, and with fir-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire; then King Solomon gives to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 Irami abimaki wuta na Tiri, mokili na ye, mpo na kotala bingumba oyo Salomo akabelaki ye, kasi asepelaki na yango te.
And Hiram comes out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon has given to him, and they have not been right in his eyes,
13 Alobaki: « Ndeko na ngai, bingumba nini oyo opesi ngai? » Yango wana abengaki bingumba yango mokili ya Kabuli, kombo oyo etikala kino lelo.
and he says, “What [are] these cities that you have given to me, my brother?” And one calls them the land of Cabul to this day.
14 Nzokande, Irami apesaki Salomo bakilo nkoto misato na nkama mitano ya wolo.
And Hiram sends one hundred and twenty talents of gold to the king.
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 matter of the tribute that King Solomon has lifted up, to build the house of YHWH, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, 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 has gone up and captures Gezer, and burns it with fire, and he has slain the Canaanite who is dwelling in the city, and gives it [as] presents to his daughter, wife of Solomon).
17 Yango wana Salomo atongaki lisusu Beti-Oroni ya likolo mpe Beti-Oroni ya se,
And Solomon builds Gezer, and the lower Beth-Horon,
18 Baalati mpe Tamari kati na esobe ya mokili,
and Ba‘alath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in 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 stores that King Solomon has, and the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, 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,
The whole of the people that is left of the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who [are] not of the sons 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.
their sons who are left behind them in the land, whom the sons of Israel have not been able to devote—he has even lifted up a tribute of service [on] them to 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.
And Solomon has not appointed a servant out of the sons of Israel, for they [are] the men of war, and his servants, and his heads, and his captains, and the heads of his chariots, 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 [are] the five hundred and fifty heads of the officers who [are] over the work of Solomon, those ruling among the people who are laboring in the work.
24 Sima na mwana mwasi ya Faraon kolongwa na engumba ya Davidi mpo na kokende na ndako oyo Salomo atongelaki ye, Salomo atongaki Milo.
Only, the daughter of Pharaoh went up out of the City of David to her house that [Solomon] built for her; then he built 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 Solomon caused burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend three times in a year on the altar that he built for YHWH, and he burned it as incense with that which [is] before YHWH, and 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.
And King Solomon has made a navy in Ezion-Geber, that is beside Eloth, on the edge of the Sea of Suph, 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 sends his servants in the navy, shipmen knowing the sea, with servants of Solomon,
28 Bakendeki na Ofiri epai wapi bazwaki bakilo nkoto zomi na mibale ya wolo oyo bamemaki epai ya mokonzi Salomo.
and they come to Ophir, and take four hundred and twenty talents of gold from there, and bring [it] to King Solomon.
