2 Chronicles 1

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Peshitta
1 Solomon the son of David established himself in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him and made him exceedingly great.	1 ܘܐܬܥܫܢ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܘܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܗ ܥܡܗ ܘܐܘܪܒܗ ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܡ̈ܠܟܝܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ
2 Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to all the leaders in all Israel, the heads of fathers' houses.	2 ܘܐܡܪ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܠܟܠܗ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܠܪܘܪ̈ܒܢܐ ܕܐ̈ܠܦܐ ܘܕܡܐ̈ܘܬܐ ܘܠܕ̇ܝ̈ܢܐ ܘܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܪ̈ܘܪܒܢܐ ܪ̈ܝܫܐ ܕܐܒܗ̈ܬܐ
3 And Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness, was there.	3 ܘܐܙܠ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܘܟܠ ܥܡܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܥܡܗ ܠܒܘܣܡܐ ܪܒܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܒܓܒܥܘܢ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܬܡܢ ܗܘܐ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܥܐܕܐ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܘܫܐ ܥܒ̣ܕܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܒܡܕܒܪܐ
4 (But David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place that David had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.)	4 ܠܘܩܒܠ ܩܒܘܬܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܐܣܩܗ̇ ܗܘܐ ܕܘܝܕ ܡܢ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܕܟܦܪ̈ܘܢܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܬܩܢ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ̇ ܕܘܝܕ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܢܩܫ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ̇ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ
5 Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD. And Solomon and the assembly sought the LORD.	5 ܘܡܕܒܚܐ ܕܢܚܫܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܗܘܐ ܒܨܠܝܐܝܠ ܒܪ ܐܘܪܝ ܒܪ ܚܘܪ ܣܝܡ ܗܘܐ ܩܕܡ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܬܒܥܗ ܗܘܐ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܘܟܘܠܗ̇ ܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ
6 And Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings upon it.	6 ܘܐܣܩ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܥܠ ܡܕܒܚܐ ܕܢܚܫܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܡܪܝܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܥܐܕܐ ܘܩܪܒ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܥܠܘ̈ܬܐ ܐܠܦ
7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, "Ask what I shall give you."	7 ܒܠܠܝܐ ܗ̇ܘ ܐܬܓܠܝ ܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܒܚܠܡܐ ܕܠܠܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܪܝܐ ܫܐܠ ܡܕܡ ܘܐܬܠ ܠܟ
8 And Solomon said to God, "Thou hast shown great and steadfast love to David my father, and hast made me king in his stead.	8 ܘܐܡܪ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܥܒܕܬ ܥܡ ܕܘܝܕ ܐܒܝ ܚܣܕܐ ܪܒܐ ܘܐܩܝܡܬܢܝ ܠܝ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܒܬܪܗ
9 O LORD God, let thy promise to David my father be now fulfilled, for thou hast made me king over a people as many as the dust of the earth.	9 ܘܐܦ ܗܫܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܝ ܢܫܪ̈ܢ ܡܟܝܠ ܡܠܝ̈ܟ ܕܡܠܠܬ ܥܡ ܕܘܝܕ ܐܒܝ ܡܛܘܠ ܕܐܢܬ ܐܩܝܡܬܢܝ ܥܠ ܥܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܣܓܝ ܗܘ ܐܝܟ ܥܦܪܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge to go out and come in before this people, for who can rule this thy people, that is so great?"	10 ܘܐܦ ܗܫܐ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܝܕܥܬܐ ܗܒ ܠܝ ܕܐܗܘܐ ܥܐ̇ܠ ܘܢܦ̇ܩ ܒܪܫܗ ܕܥܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܢܘ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܕܢܗ ܠܥܡܟ ܗܢܐ ܥܡܐ
11 God answered Solomon, "Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked possessions, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, and have not even asked long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself that you may rule my people over whom I have made you king,	11 ܘܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܚܠܦ ܕܗܘܬ ܗܕܐ ܒܪܥܝܢܟ ܘܠܐ ܫܐܠܬ ܠܟ ܢܟܣ̈ܐ ܘܐܝܩܪ̈ܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܦܫ̈ܬܐ ܕܒܥܠܕܒ̈ܒܝܟ ܘܠܐ ܫܐܠܬ ܠܟ ܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܣܓ̈ܝܐܐ ܕܬܚܐ ܒܗܘܢ ܘܫܐܠܬ ܠܟ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܬܕܘܢ ܠܥܡܝ ܕܐܩܝܡܬܟ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ
12 wisdom and knowledge are granted to you. I will also give you riches, possessions, and honor, such as none of the kings had who were before you, and none after you shall have the like."	12 ܘܐܦ ܡܕܡ ܕܠܐ ܫܐܠܬ ܝܗ̇ܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܝܕܥܬܐ ܘܥܘܬܪܐ ܘܢܟܣ̈ܐ ܘܐܝܩܪܐ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܟܘܬܟ ܒܡܠܟ̈ܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܩܡܘ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܘܒܬܪܟ ܠܐ ܢܩܘܡ ܐܟܘܬܟ
13 So Solomon came from the high place at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, to Jerusalem. And he reigned over Israel.	13 ܘܐܬܐ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܠܒܘܣܡܐ ܪܒܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܓܒܥܘܢ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܡܢ ܡܕܢܚܐ ܕܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܥܐܕܐ ܘܐܡܠܟ ܥܠ ܟܘܠܗ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ
14 Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen; he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.	14 ܘܟܢܫ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܙܘܓ̈ܐ ܘܦܪ̈ܫܐ ܘܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܐܠܦ ܘܐܪܒܥܡܐܐ ܙܘܓ̈ܝܢ ܘܬܪ̈ܥܣܪ ܐ̈ܠܦܝܢ ܦܪ̈ܫܝܢ ܘܐܩܝܡ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܙܘ̈ܓܐ ܒܩܘܪ̈ܝܐ ܘܡܢܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܡ ܡܠܟܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ
15 And the king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stone, and he made cedar as plentiful as the sycamore of the Shephelah.	15 ܘܝܗܒ ܡܠܟܐ ܟܣܦܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܐܝܟ ܟܐܦ̈ܐ ܘܐܪ̈ܙܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܝܟ ܚܠܐ ܕܥܠ ܣܦܬ ܝܡܐ ܣܘܓܐܐ
16 And Solomon's import of horses was from Egypt and Kue, and the king's traders received them from Kue for a price.	16 ܘܙܒ̇ܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܪ̈ܟܫܐ ܠܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܡܢ ܡܨܪܝܢ ܘܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬ ܐ̈ܦܠܝܐ ܬܓܪ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܘܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬ ܐ̈ܦܠܝܐ ܒܕܡ̈ܝܐ
17 They imported a chariot from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; likewise through them these were exported to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.	17 ܘܣ̇ܠܩܝܢ ܘܙ̇ܒܢܝܢ ܙܘܓܐ ܡܢ ܡܨܪܝܢ ܒܫܬܡܐܐ ܕܟܣܦܐ ܘܣܘܣܝܐ ܒܡܐܐ ܘܚܡܫܝܢ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܠܟܘܠ ܡ̈ܠܟܐ ܚ̈ܬܝܐ ܘܠܡ̈ܠܟܝ ܐܕܘܡ ܘܒܐܝܕ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܡܦܩܝܢ
	18 ܘܐܡܪ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܠܡܒܢܐ ܒܝܬܐ ܠܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܒܝܬܐ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܗ
