2 Masolo ya Kala 8
1 Sima na mibu tuku mibale oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ndako na ye moko,
Now at the end of the twenty years during which Solomon had built the house of the LORD and his own palace,
2 Salomo atongaki lisusu bingumba mike oyo Irami apesaki ye mpe avandisaki kuna bana ya Isalaele.
Solomon rebuilt the cities Hiram had given him and settled Israelites there.
3 Salomo akendeki kobundisa engumba Amati ya Tsoba mpe abotolaki yango.
Then Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and captured it.
4 Kati na esobe, atongaki engumba Tadimori; mpe kati na Amati, atongaki bingumba nyonso ya kobombela biloko.
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, in addition to all the store cities that he had built in Hamath.
5 Atongaki lisusu Beti-Oroni ya likolo mpe Beti-Oroni ya se lokola bingumba batonga makasi, elongo na bamir, bikuke mpe bibende oyo bakangelaka bikuke,
He rebuilt Upper and Lower Beth-horon as fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars,
6 Baalati mpe bingumba nyonso epai wapi azalaki kobomba biloko na ye, bingumba nyonso epai wapi azalaki kobomba bashar mpe bampunda na ye. Salomo atongaki lisusu nyonso oyo azalaki na yango posa kati na Yelusalemi, na Libani mpe na mokili nyonso oyo azalaki kokamba.
as well as Baalath, all the store cities that belonged to Solomon, and all the cities for his chariots and horses —whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout the land of his dominion.
7 Batikali nyonso kati na bato ya Iti, ya Amori, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi, ba-oyo bazalaki bana ya Isalaele te,
As for all the people who remained of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites (the people who were not Israelites)—
8 ba-oyo bana na bango batikalaki kati na mokili oyo bana ya Isalaele babebisaki, Salomo azwaki bango mpo na misala makasi, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
their descendants who remained in the land, those whom the Israelites were unable to destroy—Solomon conscripted these people to be forced laborers, as they are to this day.
9 Kasi Salomo akomisaki te bana ya Isalaele bawumbu mpo na kosala misala makasi na ye, pamba te bazalaki bato ya bitumba, bakonzi ya basoda na ye, bakonzi ya bashar na ye mpe ya basoda na ye, oyo batambolisaka bashar.
But Solomon did not consign any of the Israelites to slave labor, because they were his men of war, his officers and captains, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
10 Ezalaki mpe na bakalaka ya lokumu oyo mokonzi Salomo atiaki mpo na kokamba basali na ye. Motango na bango ezalaki nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
They were also the chief officers for King Solomon: 250 supervisors.
11 Salomo alongolaki mwana mwasi ya Faraon kati na engumba ya Davidi mpe amemaki ye na ndako oyo atongelaki ye, pamba te alobaki: « Mwasi na ngai asengeli te kovanda kati na ndako ya Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo ete bisika oyo Sanduku ya Yawe ekoti ezali bule. »
Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh up from the City of David to the palace he had built for her. For he said, “My wife must not live in the house of David king of Israel, because the places the ark of the LORD has entered are holy.”
12 Salomo abonzaki epai na Yawe bambeka ya kotumba, na etumbelo ya Yawe, oyo atongaki liboso ya ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo ya Yawe.
At that time Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of the LORD he had built in front of the portico.
13 Azalaki kobonza yango mokolo na mokolo, kolanda mitindo ya Moyize na tina na mikolo ya Saba, ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe ya bafeti misato oyo esalemaka mibu nyonso: feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, feti ya Baposo mpe feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
He observed the daily requirement for offerings according to the commandment of Moses for Sabbaths, New Moons, and the three annual appointed feasts—the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles.
14 Kolanda mokano ya Davidi, tata na ye, Salomo atiaki masanga ya Banganga-Nzambe kati na misala na bango mpe Balevi mpo na kokumisa Yawe mpe kosunga Banganga-Nzambe ndenge ebongisamaki mpo na mokolo na mokolo. Aponaki lisusu masanga ya bakengeli bikuke mpo na ekuke moko na moko kolanda etinda oyo Davidi, moto na Nzambe, apesaki.
In keeping with the ordinances of his father David, Solomon appointed the divisions of the priests over their service, and the Levites for their duties to offer praise and to minister before the priests according to the daily requirement. He also appointed gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate, for this had been the command of David, the man of God.
15 Batosaki na makambo nyonso mitindo ya mokonzi mpo na oyo etali Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi, ezala mpo na oyo etali bibombelo bomengo.
They did not turn aside from the king’s command regarding the priests or the Levites or any matter concerning the treasuries.
16 Ezali boye nde misala nyonso ya Salomo esalemaki, kobanda na mokolo oyo batongaki moboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe kino na mokolo oyo esilaki. Boye, Tempelo ya Yawe esilaki kotongama.
Thus all the work of Solomon was carried out, from the day the foundation was laid for the house of the LORD until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was completed.
17 Salomo akendeki na Etsioni-Geberi mpe na Eyiloti, pembeni ya ebale monene ya Barozo, kati na mokili ya Edomi.
Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth on the coast of Edom.
18 Irami atindelaki ye, na nzela ya basali na ye, bamasuwa mpe bato oyo bayebaki kotambolisa malamu masuwa kati na ebale. Bato ya Irami batambolaki elongo na basali ya Salomo kino na Ofiri, mpe bazwaki kuna bakilo nkoto zomi na mitano ya wolo oyo bamemaki epai ya mokonzi Salomo.
So Hiram sent him ships captained by his servants, along with crews of experienced sailors. They went with Solomon’s servants to Ophir and acquired from there 450 talents of gold, which they delivered to King Solomon.
