1 Ngakho inkosi uSolomoni yaba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke.
PELA i alii ai o Solomona maluna o ka Iseraela a pau.
2 Lalezi yiziphathamandla ayelazo: UAzariya indodana kaZadoki wayengumpristi;
Eia hoi kona mau luna, o Azaria ke keiki a Zadoka ke kahuna.
3 uElihorefi loAhiya amadodana kaShisha babengababhali; uJehoshafathi indodana kaAhiludi wayengumabhalane;

A ia Solomona na luna he umikumamalua maluna o ka Iseraela a pau, na mea hoomakaukau i ka ai na ke alii a na ko kona hale, kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona malama o ka makahiki i hoomakaukau ai.
8 Lala ngamabizo abo: UBeni-Huri entabeni zakoEfrayimi.
Eia ko lakou mau inoa, o Benehura ma ka mauna o Eperaima;
9 UBeni-Dekeri eMakazi leShahalibimi leBeti-Shemeshi leEloni-Beti-Hanani.
O Benedekera, ma Makaza, a me Salabima, a me Betesemeta, a me Elonabetehanana.
10 UBeni-Hesedi eArubothi, eleSoko lelizwe lonke leHeferi.
O Beneheseda ma Anibota, ia ia o Soko, a me ka aina a pau o Hepera.
11 UBeni-Abinadaba wayelelizwe lonke leDori; uTafathi indodakazi kaSolomoni wayengumkakhe.
O Benabinadaba ma ka aina a pau o Dora, ia ia o Tapata ke kaikamahine a Solomona i wahine.
12 UBahana indodana kaAhiludi wayeleThahanakhi leMegido layo yonke iBeti-Sheyani, eseceleni kweZarethani ngaphansi kweJizereyeli, kusukela eBeti-Sheyani kuze kube seAbeli-Mehola, kuze kube ngaphetsheya kweJokimeyama.
A o Baana ke keiki a Ahiluda, ia ia Taanaka, a me Megido, a me Beteseana a pau, e pili ana i Zaretana, malalo o Iezereela, mai Beteseana aku a hiki i Abelamahola a ma o aku o Iokeneama.
13 UBeni-Geberi eRamothi-Gileyadi wayelemizi kaJayiri indodana kaManase, eseGileyadi, wayelelizwe leArigobi, eliseBashani, imizi engamatshumi ayisithupha emikhulu elemiduli lemigoqo yethusi.
A o Benegebera ma Ramota Gileada, ia ia na kauhale o Iaira ke keiki a Manase na wahi ma Gileada; ia ia hoi ka aina o Aregoba kahi ma Basana, he kanaono na kulanakauhale nui me na pa, a me na kaola keleawe:
14 UAhinadaba indodana kaIdo eMahanayimi.
A o Ahinadaba ke keiki a Ido, ia ia Mahanaima:
15 UAhimahazi wayekoNafithali; laye wathatha uBasemathi indodakazi kaSolomoni abe ngumkakhe.

19 UGeberi indodana kaUri wayeselizweni leGileyadi, ilizwe likaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, lelikaOgi inkosi yeBashani. Njalo wayenguye yedwa umphathi kulelolizwe.
O Gebera ke keiki a Uri ma ka aina o Gileada, ka aina o Sihona ke alii o ka Amora, a me Oga ke alii o Basana; oia wale no ka luna ma kela aina.
20 UJuda loIsrayeli babebanengi njengetshebetshebe elingaselwandle ngobunengi, besidla, benatha, bethokoza.
He lehulehu ka Iuda, a me ka Iseraela, e like me ka one ma kahakai i ka nui, e ai ana, a e inu ana, a e hoolealea ana.
21 USolomoni wayesebusa phezu kwayo yonke imibuso kusukela emfuleni kuze kufike elizweni lamaFilisti kuze kufike emngceleni weGibhithe; babeletha izipho, babemsebenzela uSolomoni zonke izinsuku zempilo yakhe.
A ua alii ae la o Solomona maluna o na aupuni a pau mai ka muliwai a hiki i ka aina o ko Pilisetia, a i ka mokuna o Aigupita; a lawe mai la i na makana, a malama lakou ia Solomona i na la a pau o kona ola ana.
22 Njalo ukudla kukaSolomoni ngosuku olulodwa kwakungamakhori angamatshumi amathathu empuphu ecolekileyo, lamakori angamatshumi ayisithupha empuphu,
A o ka ai na Solomona i ka la hookahi, he kanakolu kora palaoa maikai, a me na kora huita wali he kanaono:
23 inkabi ezilitshumi ezinonisiweyo, lenkabi ezingamatshumi amabili zemadlelweni, lezimvu ezilikhulu, ngaphandle kwendluzele, lemiziki, lemiziki elempondo ezilembaxambaxa, lenyoni ezinonisiweyo.
O na bipikauo kupaluia he umi, a me na bipikauo mai ke kula mai he iwakalua, a me na hipa hookahi haneri, a okoa hoi na dia, a me na anetelopa, a me na bufalo, a me na manu momona.
24 Ngoba wayebusa phezu kwalo lonke nganeno komfula, kusukela eTifisa kusiya eGaza, laphezu kwawo wonke amakhosi nganeno komfula, njalo wayelokuthula kuzo zonke inhlangothi zakhe ezizingelezeleyo.
No ka mea, ia ia ke aupuni ma keia aoao a pau o ka muliwai, mai Tipesa a hiki i Aza, maluna oia o nalii a pau ma keia aoao o ka muliwai: a he malu kona ma na aoao a puni ia.
25 UJuda loIsrayeli bahlala-ke bevikelekile, ngulowo lalowo ngaphansi kwesivini sakhe langaphansi komkhiwa wakhe, kusukela koDani kuze kufike eBherishebha, zonke izinsuku zikaSolomoni.
Noho maluhia ae la o ka Iuda a me ka Iseraela, kela kanaka keia kanaka, malalo o kona kumuwaina iho a malalo o kona laaufiku iho, mai Dana a Bereseba, i na la a pau o Solomona.
26 Njalo uSolomoni wayelezindlwana zamabhiza enqola zakhe ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane, labagadi bamabhiza abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili.
Ia Solomona na wahi e ku ai na lio, he kanaha tausani, no kona mau kaa, a me na kanaka hololio he umikumamalua haneri.
27 Lalabobaphathi badingela inkosi uSolomoni ukudla, laye wonke osondela etafuleni lenkosi uSolomoni, ngulowo lalowo ngenyanga yakhe; kabatshiyanga kusweleke lutho.
A ua hoomakaukau kela mau luna i ai na Solomona ke alii, a na ka poe a pau i hele mai i ka papaaina o Solomona ke alii, kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona malama, aole nele iki lakou.
28 Lebhali lamahlanga awamabhiza lawamabhiza alejubane bakuletha endaweni lapho eyayifanele kube khona, ngulowo lalowo njengemfanelo yakhe.
Ka hua bale hoi a me ka mauu na na lio, me na lio holo, ka lakou i lawe mai ai i kahi o lakou, kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kana kauoha.
29 UNkulunkulu wasemnika uSolomoni inhlakanipho lokuqedisisa okukhulu kakhulu, lobubanzi benhliziyo, njengetshebetshebe elisekhunjini lolwandle.
A haawi mai la ke Akua i ke akamai ia Solomona, a me ka naauao he nui loa, a me ka nui ana o ka naau, e like me ka one ma kahakai.
30 Lenhlakanipho kaSolomoni yayinkulu kulenhlakanipho yawo wonke amadodana empumalanga, lakulenhlakanipho yonke yeGibhithe.
A o ko Solomona akamai, ua oi aku ia mamua o ke akamai o na kamaaina a pau o ka hikina, a me ke akamai a pau o Aigupita.
31 Ngoba wayehlakaniphile kulabo bonke abantu, okwedlula uEthani umEzira loHemani loKalikoli loDarida amadodana kaMaholi; lebizo lakhe lalisezizweni zonke inhlangothi zonke.
No ka mea, ua oi aku kona akamai mamua o ko na kanaka a pau, mamua o ko Etana o ka Ezera, a me ko Hemana, a me ko Kalekola, a me ko Dareda na keiki a Mahola: a ua kaulana oia ma na lahuikanaka a puni.
32 Waseqamba izaga ezizinkulungwane ezintathu, lengoma zakhe zaziyinkulungwane lanhlanu.
A ua olelo mai la oia i na olelo akamai ekolu tausani, a o kana mau mele, hookahi tausani ia a me kumamalima.
33 Wasekhuluma ngezihlahla, kusukela esihlahleni somsedari oseLebhanoni kuze kufike kuhisope emila iphuma emdulini; wakhuluma langezinyamazana langezinyoni langezihuquzelayo langezinhlanzi.
A ua olelo mai oia i na laau, mai ka laau Kedera ma Lebanona a hiki i ka husopa, e kupu ana mailoko ae o ka pa: a olelo mai la hoi oia no na holoholona, a me na manu, a me na mea kolo, a me na ia.
34 Kwasekufika abavela ezizweni zonke ukuzwa inhlakanipho kaSolomoni, bevela emakhosini wonke omhlaba ayezwe ngenhlakanipho yakhe.
Hele mai la hoi ko na lahuikanaka a pau e hoolohe i ke akamai o Solomona, mai na lii a pau o ka honua, i lohe i kona akamai.
