2 Tantara 8
1 Ary nony afaka ny roa-polo taona naonaovan’ i Solomona ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ ny tenany,
And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of Yahweh, and his own house,
2 dia namboariny ny tanàna izay nomen’ i Hirama azy ka namponenany ny Zanak’ isiraely.
that, the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, —and caused, the sons of Israel, to dwell there.
3 Ary Solomona nankany Hamata-zoba ka naharesy azy.
And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, —and prevailed against it;
4 Ary nanorina an’ i Tadmora tany an-efitra sy ny tanana fitehirizana rehetra izay nataony tany Hamata izy.
and he built Tadmor, in the wilderness, —and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath;
5 Ary namboariny koa Beti-horona ambony sy Beti-horona ambany, tanàna mafy misy manda sy vavahady mihidy,
and he built Beth-horon, the upper, and Beth-horon, the nether, —fortified cities, with walls, and doors and bars;
6 ary Baleta sy ny tanàna fitehirizana rehetra izay an’ i Solomona sy ny tanàna rehetra fitoeran-kalesy sy ny tanàna fitoeran’ ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly ary izay rehetra tian’ i Solomona haorina tany Jerosalema sy tany Libanona ary tany amin’ ny tany nanjakany rehetra.
and Baalath, and all the store cities which pertained to Solomon, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, —and every delight of Solomon which he delighted to build in Jerusalem, and in the Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7 Ary ny amin’ ny olona sisa rehetra tamin’ ny Hetita sy ny Amorita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita, izay tsy isan’ ny Isiraely
As for all the people that were left, of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not, of Israel; —
8 dia ny taranany izay sisa nandimby azy teo amin’ ny taniny, fa tsy naringan’ ny Isiraely, no nampanaovin’ i Solomona fanompoana mandraka androany.
of their sons who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel had not utterly destroyed, Solomon enrolled them as tributary—unto this day.
9 Fa ny Zanak’ isiraely dia tsy mba nampanaovin’ i Solomona izany, fa ireo kosa no miaramila sy komandin’ ny mpanafika malaza ary komandin’ ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny
But, of the sons of Israel, were there none whom he delivered up as bondmen unto his work, —for, they, were men of war, and his captains and his heroes, and captains over his chariots, and his horsemen.
10 Ary izao no mpifehy ny olona voatendrin’ i Solomona mpanjaka, dia dimam-polo amby roan-jato izay nanapaka ny olona.
These, moreover, were the chiefs of his officers whom King Solomon had, two hundred and fifty, —who wielded dominion over the people.
11 Ary Solomona nitondra ny zanakavavin’ i Farao niakatra avy tany an-Tanànan’ i Davida ho ao amin’ ny trano izay nataony ho azy, fa hoy izy: Ny vadiko tsy mahazo mitoetra ao an-tranon’ i Davida, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, fa masìna izay efa nidiran’ ny fiaran’ i Jehovah.
And, the daughter of Pharaoh, Solomon brought up, out of the city of David, unto the house which he had built for her, —for he said, A wife of mine must not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for holy are those places whereinto the ark of Yahweh hath come.
12 Ary tamin’ izany Solomona nanatitra fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah teo ambonin’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah, izay naoriny teo anoloan’ ny lavarangana fidirana;
Then, Solomon offered up ascending-sacrifices, unto Yahweh, —upon the altar of Yahweh, which he had built before the porch:
13 eny, nanatitra izay fanao isanandro izy araka ny didin’ i Mosesy dia tamin’ ny Sabata sy ny voaloham-bolana ary ny fotoam-pivavahana intelo isan-taona, dia tamin’ ny andro firavoravoana fihinanana mofo tsy misy masirasira sy ny andro firavoravoana manarakaraka ireo herinandro ary ny andro firavoravoana fitoerana amin’ ny trano rantsan-kazo.
even according to the duty of each a day upon [its own] day, offering up according to the commandment of Moses, for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed feasts, three times in the year, —in the festival of unleavened cakes and in the festival of weeks, and in the festival of booths;
14 Ary notendreny koa ny antokon’ ny mpisorona araka ny nandaharan’ i Davida rainy azy ho amin’ ny fanompoany avy ary ny Levita ho amin’ ny anjara-raharahany koa, dia ny hidera sy hanao fanompoam-pivavahana eo anoloan’ ny mpisorona araka ny raharaha fanao isan’ andro, ary ny mpiandry varavarana araka ny antokony amin’ ny isam-bavahady; fa izany no nandidian’ i Davida lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, azy.
and he caused to stand, according to the regulation of David his father, the courses of the priests over their service and of the Levites over their charges, to offer praise and to minister before the priests, for the duty of each day upon its own day, and the gate-keepers in their courses, at every several gate, —for, such, was the commandment of David the man of God;
15 Ary tsy nialan’ ireo ny didin’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita na amin’ inona na amin’ inona, indrindra fa ny amin’ ny rakitra.
neither departed they from the commandment of the king, concerning the priests and the Levites as to any duty, or as to the treasuries.
16 Toy izany no nanamboaran’ i Solomona ny asa rehetra nataony hatramin’ ny andro nanorenany ny tranon’ i Jehovah ka ambara-pahavitany; ka dia vita tsara ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
So all the work of Solomon was prepared, from the day of founding the house of Yahweh, even as far as the finishing thereof, —complete was the house of Yahweh.
17 Ary tamin’ izay Solomona dia nankany Ezion-gebera sy Elota eo amoron’ ny ranomasina any amin’ ny tany Edoma,
Then, went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and unto Eloth on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18 ary ny mpanompon’ i Hirama dia nampandehaniny hitondra sambo sy mpanompo izay mahay ranomasina; ary niara-nandeha tamin’ ny mpanompon’ i Solomona ho any Ofira ireo ka nahazo talenta volamena dimam-polo amby efa-jato tany izy, dia nentiny tany amin’ i Solomona mpanjaka izany.
And Huram sent him—by the hand of his servants—ships, and servants skilled in the sea, and they came, with the servants of Solomon, towards Ophir, and took from thence, four hundred and fifty talents of gold, —and brought unto King Solomon.
