1 Nampaozareñe am-pifehea’e ao t’i Selomò ana’ i Davide naho nañimb’ aze vaho nampitoabotse ty enge’e t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’e.
Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.
2 Le nisaontsy am’ Israele iaby t’i Selomò, amo mpifelek’ arivo naho zatoo naho amo mpizakao vaho amo mpiaolo’ Israeleo, o talèn-droae’eo.
Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the ancestral houses.
3 Aa le nimb’ amy toets’ abo’ i Giboney mb’eo t’i Selomò rekets’ i valobohòkey amy te añe ty toe’ i kibo­hom-pamantañan’ Añahare niranjie’ i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovà an-dratraratray.
So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the Tent of Meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.
4 Fe nampionjone’ i Davide boake Kiriate-jearime i vatan’ Añaharey mb’amy toetse hinajari’ i Davide ho azey, ie fa nampitroare’e kivoho e Ierosalaime ao.)
But David had brought the ark of God up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
5 Amy te añatrefa’ i kivoho’ Iehovày i kitrely torisike niranjie’ i Bazalile ana’ i Orý, ana’ i Horey; le zay ty pinai’ i Selomò naho i valobohòkey.
Moreover the bronze altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Aa le nionjom-b’amy kitrely torisìkey t’i Selo­mò, añatrefa’ Iehovà, mb’amy kibohom-pamantañañey mb’eo vaho nañenga soroñe arivo ama’e.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
7 Niheo amy Selomò amy haleñey t’i Andrianañahare, nanao ty hoe: Ihalalio le hatoloko azo.
In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, "Ask what I shall give you."
8 Le hoe t’i Selomò aman’ Añahare: Fa tinoro’o fañisohañe ra’elahy t’i Davide raeko vaho nanoe’o mpanjaka raho handimbe aze.
Solomon said to God, "You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 Ie amy zao ry Iehovà Andrianañahare, ehe aja­doño i nitsarae’o amy Davide raekoy; fa nanoe’o mpanjaka hifehe ondaty mira ami’ty hamaro’ ty deboke an-tane atoio raho.
Now, LORD God, let your promise to David my father be established; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
10 Ehe toloro hihitse naho hilala henaneo, hiakarako naho himoahako añatrefa’ ondaty retoañe; amy te ia ty hahafizaka ondati’o mitozantozañeo?
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this your people, that is so great?"
11 Le hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Selo­mò: Aa kanao zay ty añ’ arofo’o ao ie tsy nihalalia’o vara, ndra hareañe, ndra asiñe, ndra ty fiaim-palaiñ’ azo vaho tsy nihalalia’o andro maro, te mone hihitse naho hilala ty nihalalia’o, hahafizakà’o ondatiko nanoeko azo mpanjakao;
God said to Solomon, "Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of those who hate you, neither yet have asked long life; but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king:
12 le hatoloko azo ty hihitse naho hilala, mbore hitolorako vara naho hareañe naho asiñe, manahake ze mbe tsy amo mpanjaka taolo’oo vaho tsy hañirinkiriña’ o hanonjohio.
wisdom and knowledge is granted to you. I will give you riches, wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had who have been before you; neither shall there any after you have the like."
13 Aa le nimpoly boak’ an-toets’ abo e Gibone eo t’i Selomò, hirik’ aolo’ i kibohom-pamantañañey, pake Ierosa­laime vaho nifehe Israele.
So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, to Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
14 Nanontoñe sarete naho mpiningi-tsoavala t’i Selo­mò; le nanan-tsarete arivo-tsi-efajato naho mpiningi-tsoavala rai-ale-tsi-ro’ arivo, ze natobe’e amo rovan-tsareteo naho amy mpanjakay e Ierosalaime ao.
Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had one thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
15 Nampirae’ i mpanjakay amo vatoo ty volamena naho ty volafoty e Ierosalaime ao, le nampirae’e amo sakoañe am-bavataneo o mendoraveñeo ami’ty hamaro’e.
The king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
16 Le nendese’ i Selomò boake Mitsraime naho boake Keve añe o soavalao; o mpanao bali’ i mpanjakaio ty nivily iereo amo nte-Keveo ami’ty vili’e.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue; the king's merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 Tinoha’ iereo e Mitsraime añe an-tsekele volafoty enenjato ty sarete naho zato-tsi-limampolo ty soavala; le amy vily zay ka ty nañondroñañe irezay mb’amo mpanjaka’ o nte-Keteoo naho o mpanjaka’ i Arameo.
They brought up and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Aram, they brought them out by their means.
