2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and Jehovah his God was with him and magnified him exceedingly.
Ɔhene Dawid babarima Salomo sɔɔ ahennie no mu den, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn kaa ne ho maa no tumi a ɛso.
2 And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to all the princes of all Israel, the chief fathers;
Ɔfrɛɛ Israel nyinaa, asahene ne asraadɔm ntuanofoɔ, atemmufoɔ, amanyɛ ne mmusua ntuanofoɔ nyinaa.
3 and Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place at Gibeon; for there was God's tent of meeting which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness.
Na Salomo dii nnipa no nyinaa anim kɔɔ bepɔ Gibeon so hɔ baabi a wɔde Onyankopɔn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no asie. Yei yɛ Ntomadan a Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ sii wɔ ɛserɛ no so no.
4 But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjath-jearim to the [place] that David had prepared for it; for he had spread a tent for it at Jerusalem.
Na Dawid ayi Onyankopɔn Adaka no afiri Kiriat-Yearim de kɔ ntomadan sononko bi a wasi wɔ Yerusalem mu.
5 And the brazen altar that Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of Jehovah; and Solomon and the congregation sought unto it.
Nanso, na kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia a Hur nana a ɔyɛ Uri babarima Besaleel siiɛ no da so wɔ Gibeon, wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no anim. Enti, Salomo ne nnipa no boaa wɔn ho ano wɔ hɔ, bisaa Awurade akwankyerɛ.
6 And Solomon offered there upon the brazen altar before Jehovah which was at the tent of meeting; and he offered up a thousand burnt-offerings upon it.
Hyiadan no anim hɔ, Salomo foro kɔɔ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia no ho wɔ Awurade anim, bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ahodoɔ apem wɔ so.
7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give thee.
Ɛda no anadwo, Onyankopɔn yii ne ho adi wɔ daeɛ mu kyerɛɛ Salomo, bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wopɛ? Bisa na mede bɛma wo!”
8 And Solomon said to God, Thou hast shewn unto David my father great loving-kindness, and hast made me king in his stead.
Salomo buaa Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Wodii mʼagya Dawid nokorɛ na woyɛɛ no adɔeɛ, na afei wode me asi nʼanan mu sɛ ɔhene.
9 Now, Jehovah Elohim, let thy word unto David my father be firm; for thou hast made me king over a people numerous as the dust of the earth.
Na afei Awurade Onyankopɔn, mesrɛ wo di ɛbɔ a wohyɛɛ mʼagya Dawid no so, ɛfiri sɛ wode me asi nnipa a wɔn dodoɔ te sɛ asase so mfuturo so ɔhene.
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this thy great people?
Ma me nyansa ne nimdeɛ, na memfa nni wɔn so yie, na hwan koraa na ɔbɛtumi adi wo ɔman kɛseɛ sei so?”
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked for thyself wisdom and knowledge, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Salomo sɛ, “Esiane sɛ wʼahiasɛm kɛseɛ ne sɛ wopɛ sɛ woboa wo manfoɔ, na woammisa ahodeɛ, animuonyam anaa wʼatamfoɔ wuo anaa nkwa tenten, na mmom, wobisaa nyansa ne nimdeɛ a wode bɛdi me nkurɔfoɔ so yie enti,
12 wisdom and knowledge are granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches and wealth and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall any after thee have the like.
mɛma wo nyansa ne nimdeɛ a wobisaeɛ no. Afei, mɛma wo sika, ahodeɛ ne animuonyam a ɔhene biara a wadi wʼanim no nnyaa bi da, nanso ɔrennya no saa da biara da.”
13 Then Solomon came back [from] the high place at Gibeon to Jerusalem, from before the tent of meeting, and reigned over Israel.
Na Salomo firii hyiadan a ɛwɔ Gibeon bepɔ no so no mu sane kɔɔ Yerusalem kɔdii ɔhene wɔ Israel so.
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had a thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen; and he placed them in the chariot-cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
Salomo boaboaa asraadɔm a wɔdɔɔso yie a na nteaseɛnamkafoɔ apem ahanan ne apɔnkɔ ɔpedumienu ka ho ano. Ɔmaa wɔn mu dodoɔ no tenaa nteaseɛnam nkuropɔn mu, na ebi nso tena bɛnee no wɔ Yerusalem.
15 And the king made silver and gold in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he as the sycamores that are in the lowland for abundance.
Salomo ɛberɛ so no, dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ buu so sɛ aboɔ wɔ Yerusalem. Na ntweneduro aboɔden nnua nso buu so sɛ akyee nnua a na abu so wɔ Yuda mmepɔ ayaase no.
16 And the exportation of horses that Solomon had was from Egypt: a caravan of the king's merchants fetched a drove [of horses], at a price.
Na wɔkra Salomo apɔnkɔ no firi Misraim ne Kilikia, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔhene adwadifoɔ no nya no yie wɔ Kilikia.
17 And they fetched up and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; and so they brought [them] by their means, for all the kings of the Hittites and for the kings of Syria.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na wɔtumi tɔ Misraim nteaseɛnam a wɔde ba Yerusalem no nnwetɛbena kilogram nson, na apɔnkɔ nso, wɔtumi tɔ no nnwetɛbena kilogram mmienu. Wɔn nso kɔtontɔnn wɔn mu pii nso maa Hetifoɔ ne Aram ahemfo.
