1 Meʻa Hokohoko 29

1And David the king said to all the assembly, “Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is young and inexperienced, and the work is great, for the palace will not be for man but for the LORD God.
1NAʻE pehē foki ʻe Tevita ko e tuʻi ki he fakataha kotoa pē, “ʻOku kei talavou mo vaivai pe ʻa Solomone ko hoku foha, ʻaia pe tokotaha kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua, he ʻoku lahi ʻae ngāue: he ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ʻae fale lahi, ka kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
2So I have provided for the house of my God, so far as I was able, the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, besides great quantities of onyx and stones for setting, antimony, colored stones, all sorts of precious stones and marble.
2Pea ko eni kuo u fai tokonaki ʻeau ʻaki ʻa hoku mālohi kātoa, maʻae fale ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ʻae koula ki he meʻa koula, mo e siliva ki he meʻa siliva, mo e palasa ki he meʻa palasa, mo e ukamea ki he meʻa ukamea, mo e taʻanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻakau; mo e maka ko e ʻonike ke fonofono ʻaki, mo e ngaahi maka ngingila mo lanu kehekehe, mo e faʻahinga maka mahuʻinga kotoa pē, pea mo e maka hinehina, ko e meʻa lahi.
3Moreover, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God:
3Pea koeʻuhi foki kuo u tukupau ʻa ʻeku ʻofa ki he fale ʻa hoku ʻOtua, ko ia kuo u ʻatu mei heʻeku koloa totonu ʻaʻaku, ʻae koula mo e siliva, ʻaia kuo u ʻatu maʻae fale ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ko e fakalahi ʻataʻatā pe ki he meʻa kotoa ʻaia kuo u tokonaki ki he fale māʻoniʻoni,
43,000 talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and 7,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house,
4‌ʻIo, ʻae taleniti koula ʻe tolu afe, ʻoe koula mei Ofeli, mo e taleniti siliva maʻae fitu afe, ke ʻaofi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi holisi ʻoe fale:
5and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself today to the LORD?”
5Ko e koula ki he meʻa koula, mo e siliva ki he meʻa siliva, pea ki he ngaahi ngāue kehekehe ʻe fai ʻe he nima ʻoe kau tufunga. Pea ko hai ha taha ʻoku fie fakafonu hono nima ke ngāue kia Sihova he ʻaho ni?”
6Then the leaders of fathers’ houses made their freewill offerings, as did also the leaders of the tribes, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officers over the king’s work.
6Pea naʻe toki ʻatu meʻa ʻi he fiefie fai ʻe he kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he kau mātuʻa mo e houʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli, pea mo e ngaahi ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he ngaahi toko afe mo e ngaahi teau, pea mo kinautolu naʻe pule ki he ngāue ʻae tuʻi.
7They gave for the service of the house of God 5,000 talents and 10,000 darics of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze and 100,000 talents of iron.
7Pea naʻa nau foaki maʻae ngāue ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua ko e koula, ko e taleniti ʻe nima afe, mo e konga kehe ʻe taha mano, pea ko e siliva ko e taleniti ʻe taha mano, pea mo e taleniti ʻe taha mano ma valu afe ʻoe palasa, pea mo e taleniti ʻe taha kilu ʻoe ukamea.
8And whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the LORD, in the care of Jehiel the Gershonite.
8Pea ko kinautolu naʻe maʻu ʻae ngaahi maka mahuʻinga naʻa nau foaki ia ki he koloa ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Sehieli ko e tangata Kesoni.
9Then the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a whole heart they had offered freely to the LORD. David the king also rejoiced greatly.
9Pea naʻe toki fiefia ai ʻae kakai, koeʻuhi naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi he fiefie fai, pea ʻi he loto angatonu naʻa nau ʻatu loto lelei pe kia Sihova: pea naʻe fiefia foki ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻi he fiefia lahi.
10Therefore David blessed the LORD in the presence of all the assembly. And David said: “Blessed are you, O LORD, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.
10Ko ia naʻe fakafetaʻi ʻe Tevita kia Sihova ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakataha kātoa: pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ko ʻemau tamai, ke taʻengata pea taʻengata.
11Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all.
11‌ʻOku ʻoʻou, ʻE Sihova, ʻae māʻolunga, mo e mālohi, mo e nāunau, mo e ikuna, pea mo e māfimafi: he ʻoku ʻoʻou ʻae meʻa kotoa ʻoku ʻi he langi pea mo e māmani: ʻoku ʻoʻou ʻae puleʻanga, ʻE Sihova, pea ʻoku hiki hake koe ko e ʻulu ki he meʻa kotoa pē.
12Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all.
12‌ʻOku meiate koe ʻae koloa mo e ongoongolahi, pea ʻoku ke pule koe ki he meʻa kotoa pē; pea ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae mālohi mo e mafai; pea ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻoʻou ʻae faʻa hakeakiʻi, mo e foaki ʻoe mālohi ki he meʻa kotoa pē.
13And now we thank you, our God, and praise your glorious name.
13Ko ia foki, ʻa homau ʻOtua, ʻoku mau fakafetaʻi kiate koe, mo fakaongoongolelei ʻa ho huafa nāunauʻia.
14“But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.
14Ka ko hai au, pea ko hai ʻa hoku kakai, ke pehē ke mau faʻa ʻatu meʻa pehē ni ʻi he fiefie fai? He ʻoku meiate koe ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, pea kuo mau ʻatu pe kiate koe mei he meʻa ʻoku ʻoʻou.
15For we are strangers before you and sojourners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no abiding.
15He ko e kau muli ʻakimautolu ʻi ho ʻao, mo e kau ʻāunofo, ʻo hangē ko ʻemau ngaahi tamai kotoa pē: ʻoku tatau mo e ata ʻa homau ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he māmani, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha nofo maʻu.
16O LORD our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a house for your holy name comes from your hand and is all your own.
16‌ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, ko e koloa kotoa kuo mau tokonaki ke langa ʻaki ha fale kiate koe maʻa ho huafa māʻoniʻoni, ʻoku mei ho nima ʻoʻou, pea ʻoku ʻoʻou kotoa pē.
17I know, my God, that you test the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you.
17‌ʻOku ou ʻilo foki, ʻe hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻe koe ʻae loto, pea ʻoku ke finangalo lelei ki he angatotonu. Ka ko au, ʻi he angatonu ʻo hoku loto kuo u ʻatu fiefie fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē: pea kuo u mamata fiefia ʻeni ki hoʻo kakai, ʻa ʻeni kuo fakataha ni, mo ʻenau ʻatu meʻa kiate koe ʻi he fiefie fai.
18O LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep forever such purposes and thoughts in the hearts of your people, and direct their hearts toward you.
18‌ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo ʻIsileli, ko ʻemau ngaahi tamai, ke ke tuku maʻu eni ki he filioʻi mo e fakakaukau ʻoe loto ʻo hoʻo kakai ke taʻengata, pea ke teuteu ʻa honau loto kiate koe:
19Grant to Solomon my son a whole heart that he may keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, performing all, and that he may build the palace for which I have made provision.”
19Pea ke foaki kia Solomone ko hoku foha ha loto haohaoa, ke ne tokanga ki hoʻo ngaahi fekau, mo hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni, mo hoʻo ngaahi fono, pea ke fai ia kotoa pē, pea ke langa ʻae fale lahi ʻaia kuo u fai tokonaki ki ai.”
20Then David said to all the assembly, “Bless the LORD your God.” And all the assembly blessed the LORD, the God of their fathers, and bowed their heads and paid homage to the LORD and to the king.
20Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ki he fakataha kātoa, “Ko eni mou fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko homou” ʻOtua. Pea naʻe fakafetaʻi ʻe he fakataha kātoa kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe punou hifo honau ʻulu, mo nau kia Sihova, pea mo e tuʻi.
21And they offered sacrifices to the LORD, and on the next day offered burnt offerings to the LORD, 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, and 1,000 lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.
21Pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau kia Sihova, mo nau ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu kia Sihova, ʻi he ʻaho naʻe feholoi mo e ʻaho ko ia, ʻio, ko e fanga pulu ʻe taha afe, mo e fanga sipitangata ʻe taha afe, mo e fanga lami ʻe taha afe, fakataha mo ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau meʻainu, pea mo e ngaahi feilaulau lahi ʻaupito maʻa ʻIsileli kātoa:
22And they ate and drank before the LORD on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and they anointed him as prince for the LORD, and Zadok as priest.
22Pea naʻa nau kai mo inu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi he fiefia lahi. Pea naʻa nau fakanofo ʻa Solomone ko e foha ʻo Tevita ke tuʻi ko hono liunga ua, mo nau pani ia ʻaki ʻae lolo kia Sihova ke hoko ko e pule lahi, pea ke taulaʻeiki ʻa Satoki.
23Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king in place of David his father. And he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.
23Pea naʻe toki nofo ʻa Solomone ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo Sihova ko e tuʻi ko e fetongi ʻo ʻene tamai ko Tevita, pea naʻa ne monūʻia; pea naʻe talangofua ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa kiate ia.
24All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon.
24Pea naʻe anganofo kia Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē, mo e kau tangata mālohi, pea mo e ngaahi foha kotoa foki ʻoe tuʻi ko Tevita.
25And the LORD made Solomon very great in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
25Pea naʻe fakahikihiki lahi ʻaupito ʻa Solomone ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli kātoa, pea ne tuku kiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakatuʻi naʻe teʻeki ke tuku ki ha tuʻi naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia ʻi ʻIsileli.
26Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
26Naʻe pehē ʻae pule ʻa Tevita ko e foha ʻo Sese ki ʻIsileli kātoa.
27The time that he reigned over Israel was forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
27Pea ko e kuonga naʻa ne pule ai ki ʻIsileli, ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu; naʻa ne pule ʻi Hepeloni ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma tolu.
28Then he died at a good age, full of days, riches, and honor. And Solomon his son reigned in his place.
28Pea naʻa ne pekia ʻi heʻene hoko ʻo motuʻa lelei, kuo lahi hono ʻaho, mo ne koloaʻia, mo ongoongolelei: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Solomone.
29Now the acts of King David, from first to last, are written in the Chronicles of Samuel the seer, and in the Chronicles of Nathan the prophet, and in the Chronicles of Gad the seer,
29Pea ko eni ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻa Tevita, mei he kamataʻanga ʻo aʻu ki mui, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Samuela ko e tangata kikite, pea ʻi he tohi ʻa Natani ko e palōfita, pea ʻi he tohi ʻa Kata ko e tangata kikite,
30with accounts of all his rule and his might and of the circumstances that came upon him and upon Israel and upon all the kingdoms of the countries.
30‌ʻA ʻene pule kotoa pē, mo ʻene mālohi, mo e ngaahi meʻa naʻe fai kiate ia ʻi hono kuonga, pea ki ʻIsileli foki, pea ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa ʻoe ngaahi fonua.
