And Hiram king of Tyre sendeth his servants unto Solomon, for he heard that they had anointed him for king instead of his father, for Hiram was a lover of David all the days;

and Solomon sendeth unto Hiram, saying,
3 “A pa David te BOEIPA loh a kho dongkah a kho khopha hmui la a khueh pah hlan hil caemrhal loh a vael dongah a Pathen BOEIPA ming la im thoh ham a coeng pawt te na ming.
'Thou hast known David my father, that he hath not been able to build a house to the name of Jehovah his God, because of the wars that have been round about him, till Jehovah's putting them under the soles of his feet.
4 Tedae ka Pathen BOEIPA loh a duem sak coeng dongah kai ham tah kaepvai ah khingkhoekkung khaw om pawt tih yoekam khaw thae pawh.
'And now, Jehovah my God hath given rest to me round about, there is no adversary nor evil occurrence,
5 BOEIPA loh a pa David taengah a thui tih, 'Na ngolkhoel dongah nang yueng la na capa te ka khueh ni. Anih loh kai ming la im a thoh bitni,’ a ti nah vanbangla, ka BOEIPA Pathen ming la im sak ham ka cai coeng he.
and lo, I am saying to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God, as Jehovah spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son whom I appoint in thy stead on thy throne, he doth build the house for My name.

'And now, command, and they cut down for me cedars out of Lebanon, and my servants are with thy servants, and the hire of thy servants I give to thee according to all that thou sayest, for thou hast known that there is not among us a man acquainted with cutting wood, like the Sidonians.'
7 Solomon ol te Khiram yaak la a pha vaengah tah a kohoe tangkik tih, “David ham he pilnam miping sokah capa hlangcueih aka pae BOEIPA tah tihnin ah a yoethen pai,” a ti.
And it cometh to pass at Hiram's hearing the words of Solomon, that he rejoiceth exceedingly, and saith, 'Blessed [is] Jehovah to-day, who hath given to David a wise son over this numerous people.'
8 Te dongah Khiram loh Solomon taengla a tueih tih, “Kai taengla nan tueih te ka yaak coeng. Na ngaih boeih te tah lamphai thing neh, hmaical thing neh kan saii bitni.
And Hiram sendeth unto Solomon, saying, I have heard that which thou hast sent unto me, I do all thy desire concerning cedar-wood, and fir-wood,
9 Lebanon lamkah te ka sal rhoek loh tuipuei la han colh saeh. Te phoeiah kai ham na tueih nah hmuen hil tuipuei longah paan la kan khuen eh. Te te pahoi ka boe phoeiah tah nang loh khuen. Nang lamloh ka im kah caak ham m'pae lamtah ka kongaih te han saii,” a ti nah.
my servants bring down from Lebanon to the sea, and I make them floats in the sea unto the place that thou sendest unto me, and I have spread them out there; and thou dost take [them] up, and thou dost execute my desire, to give the food of my house.'
10 Te dongah Khiram loh Solomon te lamphai thing khaw, hmaical thing khaw a ngaih bangla boeih a paek.
And Hiram is giving to Solomon cedar-trees, and fir-trees, all his desire,
11 Solomon loh Khiram te a im kah a caak la cang kore thawng kul, a sui situi kore pakul a paek. Te tlam te Solomon loh Khiram ham a kum, kum ah a paek.
and Solomon hath given to Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat, food for his house, and twenty cors of beaten oil; thus doth Solomon give to Hiram year by year.
12 A taengah a thui bangla BOEIPA loh Solomon te cueihnah a paek. Te dongah Khiram laklo neh Solomon laklo ah rhoepnah om tih a boktlap la moi a boh rhoi.
And Jehovah hath given wisdom to Solomon as He spake to him, and there is peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they make a covenant both of them.

And king Solomon lifteth up a tribute out of all Israel, and the tribute is thirty thousand men,

and he sendeth them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by changes, a month they are in Lebanon, two months in their own house; and Adoniram [is] over the tribute.

And king Solomon hath seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing in the mountain,
16 Solomon taengah bitat aka pai thil mangpa bueng mah thawng thum ya thum lo tih bitat dongah aka tlun pilnam te a taemrhai uh.
apart from the heads of the officers of Solomon, who [are] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, those ruling over the people who are working in the business.
17 Manghai kah a uen bangla lung len khaw, lung vang khaw, lung rhaih khaw, im a toong nah ham a puen uh.
And the king commandeth, and they bring great stones, precious stone, to lay the foundation of the house, hewn stones;

and the builders of Solomon, and the builders of Hiram, and the Giblites hew, and prepare the wood and the stones to build the house.
