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 twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up the house of the Lord and a house for himself,
2 Salomo atongaki lisusu bingumba mike oyo Irami apesaki ye mpe avandisaki kuna bana ya Isalaele.
He took in hand the building up of the towns which Huram had given him, causing the children of Israel to make living-places for themselves there.
3 Salomo akendeki kobundisa engumba Amati ya Tsoba mpe abotolaki yango.
And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and overcame it.
4 Kati na esobe, atongaki engumba Tadimori; mpe kati na Amati, atongaki bingumba nyonso ya kobombela biloko.
And he put up the buildings of Tadmor in the waste land, and of all the store-towns 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,
And of Beth-horon the higher and the lower, walled towns with walls and doorways and locks;
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.
And of Baalath, and all the store-towns which Solomon had, and the towns where he kept his war-carriages and his horse men, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.
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 rest of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel:
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 men who were still living in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not put an end to, these Solomon put to forced work, as is done 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 make use of the children of Israel as servants for his work; they were men of war, his chiefs and his captains, and captains of his war-carriages and his horsemen.
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.
Now these were the chief men in authority whom King Solomon had: two hundred and fifty of them, in authority over the people.
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. »
Then Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her; for he said, I will not have my wife living in the house of David, king of Israel, because those places where the ark of the Lord has come 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.
Then Solomon made burned offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord which he had put up in front of the covered way,
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.
Offering every day what had been ordered by Moses, on the Sabbaths and at the new moon and at the regular feasts three times a year, that is at the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tents.
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.
And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.
15 Batosaki na makambo nyonso mitindo ya mokonzi mpo na oyo etali Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi, ezala mpo na oyo etali bibombelo bomengo.
All the orders given by the king to the priests and Levites, in connection with any business or stores, were done with care.
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.
And all the work of Solomon was complete, from the day when he put the base of the Lord's house in position, till Solomon had come to the end of building the Lord's house.
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 by the sea in the land 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.
And Huram sent him, by his servants, ships and experienced seamen, who went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and came back with four hundred and fifty talents of gold, which they took to King Solomon.
