1 Dungkrhoekhaih 22

1 David mah, Hae ahmuen loe Angraeng Sithaw ih im ah oh moe, hae hmai angbawnhaih hmaicam doeh Israelnawk ih hmaicam ah oh, tiah thuih.

Then David said, “This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of burnt offering for Israel.”

2 Israel prae thungah kaom angvinnawk nawnto amkhueng hanah David mah lokpaek; anih mah Sithaw im sak hanah thlung sah kop kaminawk to tok paek.

David gave orders to gather together the foreigners who were in Eretz-Israel; and he set masons to cut dressed stones to build God’s house.

3 Thok patomhhaih hoiah thok sakhaih sumdiknawk to sak hanah, tah laek ai sumkamling to a paek;

David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates and for the couplings, and bronze in abundance without weight,

4 paroeai kapop sidar thing doeh a paek; Sidon hoi Tura vangpui ih kaminawk mah David hanah paroeai pop sidar thing to sin pae o.

and cedar trees without number, for the Sidonians and the people of Tyre brought cedar trees in abundance to David.

5 David mah ka capa Solomon loe nawkta vop moe, saning doeh nawk vop, Angraeng han sak han ih im loe kalen kasawk im, prae boih ah ahmin kamthang, dawnrai koi kaom im ah om tih; im sak paroep hanah vaihi kam sak han, tiah a thuih. To pongah David loe dueh ai naah kalen parai im sak hanah paroephaih to tawnh.

David said, “Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries. I will therefore make preparation for it.” So David prepared abundantly before his death.

6 To pacoengah a capa Solomon to kawk moe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw im sak hanah lok a paek.

Then he called for Solomon his son, and commanded him to build a house for the LORD, the God of Israel.

7 David mah Solomon khaeah, Ka capa, ka Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin hanah im sak han poekhaih ka tawnh.

David said to Solomon his son, “As for me, it was in my heart to build a house to the name of the LORD my God.

8 Toe hae tiah Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh, Nang loe paroeai athii na longsak moe, pop parai misa to na tuk; ka mikhnukah long nuiah athii paroeai na longsak pongah, nang mah Kai ih ahmin hanah im na sah mak ai.

But the LORD’s word came to me, saying, ‘You have shed blood abundantly and have made great wars. You shall not build a house to my name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight.

9 Khenah, capa maeto na sah tih, anih loe poekmonghaih tawn kami ah om tih; anih taengah kaom a misanawk khae hoiah monghaih to ka paek han; anih ih ahmin loe Solomon, anih siangpahrang ah oh nathung, Israel khaeah monghaih hoi amdinghaih ka paek han.

Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man of peace. I will give him rest from all his enemies all around; for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.

10 Anih mah Ka hmin hanah im to sah tih; anih loe ka capa ah om ueloe, kai loe anih ih ampa ah ka om tih; anih ih angraeng tangkhang to Israel nuiah dungzan khoek to ka caksak han, tiah ang naa.

He shall build a house for my name; and he will be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’

11 Angraeng loe, vaihi nang khaeah oh; anih mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, na Angraeng Sithaw ih im to pacoeng karoek to sah ah.

Now, my son, may the LORD be with you and prosper you, and build the house of the LORD your God, as he has spoken concerning you.

12 Na Angraeng Sithaw ih daan to pazui hanah, Angraeng mah palunghahaih hoi panoekthaihaih to paek nasoe loe, Israel uk thaihaih to na paek nasoe.

May the LORD give you discretion and understanding, and put you in charge of Israel, so that you may keep the law of the LORD your God.

13 Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk hanah, Mosi khae paek ih lok takroekhaih hoi daan to acoehaih hoi kahoih ah na pazui nahaeloe, hmacawn ueloe, sak na pacoeng thai tih; na thacaksak loe, palung thacaksak ah; zii hmah loe, palungboengsak hmah.

Then you will prosper, if you observe to do the statutes and the ordinances which the LORD gave Moses concerning Israel. Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid and don’t be dismayed.

14 Khenah, vaihi raihaih thung hoi Angraeng ih im hanah sui talent sang cumvaito, phoisa sang sangto, tah laek ai sumkamling hoi sum; paroeai pop thing hoi thlungnawk doeh ka sak paroep boeh; nang mah sah thap ah.

Now, behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the LORD’s house one hundred thousand talents of gold, one million talents of silver, and bronze and iron without weight; for it is in abundance. I have also prepared timber and stone; and you may add to them.

15 Toksah kaminawk, thlung aat thaih kami, thlung tok sah kop kaminawk, thing tok sah thaih kaminawk, hmuen congca sah thaih kaminawk, paroeai na tawnh.

There are also workmen with you in abundance—cutters and workers of stone and timber, and all kinds of men who are skillful in every kind of work;

16 Sui, phoisa, sumkamling hoi sum sah kop kaminawk, kroek laek ai na tawnh. Angthawk ah loe, vaihi toksak amtong ah, Angraeng mah na oh thuih nasoe, tiah a naa.

of the gold, the silver, the bronze, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing, and may the LORD be with you.”

17 David mah a capa Solomon abomh hanah Israel zaehoikungnawk to lokpaek,

David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,

18 nihcae khaeah, Nangmacae ih Angraeng Sithaw oh na ai maw? Ahmuen kruek hoiah monghaih ang paek na ai maw? Prae kaminawk ka ban ah paek baktih toengah, prae loe Angraeng hoi prae kaminawk hmaa ah paek boeh.

“Isn’t the LORD your God with you? Hasn’t he given you rest on every side? For he has delivered the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD and before his people.

19 Vaihi nangmacae ih Angraeng Sithaw to pakrong hanah, na palungthin hoi poekhaih to paek oh; Angraeng ih ahmin hanah sak ih im thungah Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong hoi ciimcai Angraeng ih laom sabaenawk to suek hanah angthawk ah; Angraeng Sithaw ih hmuenciim to sah ah, tiah a naa.

Now set your heart and your soul to follow the LORD your God. Arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the LORD’s covenant and the holy vessels of God into the house that is to be built for the LORD’s name.”
