1 Manghai 9

1 Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh manghai im a sak ham khaw, saii ham a ngaih Solomon kah huengaihnah boeih te khaw cup coeng.

And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the LORD, and the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to perform,

2 BOEIPA he Gibeon ah a taengla aphoe bangla Solomon taengah a pabae la a phoe pah.

That the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

3 BOEIPA loh anih te, “Ka mikhmuh ah rhennah nan bih bangla na thangthuinah neh na lungmacil khaw ka yaak coeng. Kumhal due ka ming khueh ham na sak im he ka ciim coeng. Te dongah ka mik neh ka lungbuei tah teah hnin takuem om pawn ni.

And the LORD said to him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

4 Nang khaw na pa David a pongpa bangla thinko kah thincaknah, duengnah neh ka mikhmuh ah na pongpa atah, a cungkuem dongah nang kang uen bangla ka oltlueh neh ka laitloeknah he vai ham ngaithuen.

And if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:

5 Na pa David taengah ka thui tih, 'Israel ngolkhoel dong lamloh nang kah hlang he pat mahpawh,’ ka ti nah bangla na ram kah ngolkhoel te Israel soah kumhal duela ka thoh ni.

Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.

6 Nangmih khaw, na ca rhoek khaw kai hnuk lamloh na mael rhoe na mael tih, na mikhmuh ah kam paek ka olpaek neh ka khosing te na ngaithuen uh pawh, na cet uh tih pathen tloe rhoek te tho na thueng uh, amih te na bawk uh khaming.

But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:

7 Te vaengah Israel te amamih taengah ka paek khohmuen hman lamloh ka saii vetih ka ming hamla ka ciim im he khaw ka maelhmai lamloh ka hnoo ni. Israel te pilnam cungkuem lakli ah thuidoeknah neh thuinuetnah la om ni.

Then will I cut off Israel from the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:

8 He im he a sangkoek la om cakhaw he long aka pah boeih tah hal ni. Te vaengah kutving neh, “Balae tih BOEIPA loh he khohmuen taeng neh he im soah he tla a saii,” a ti uh ni.

And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus to this land, and to this house?

9 Tedae, 'A napa rhoek Egypt khohmuen lamkah aka khuen amih kah Pathen BOEIPA te a moeng uh, pathen tloe dongla kap uh tih a bawk uh, te rhoek te a bawk uh phoeiah tho a thueng uh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh amih soah he kah yoethae cungkuem he a thoeng sak,’ a ti uh ni,” a ti nah.

And they shall answer, Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers from the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath the LORD brought upon them all this evil.

10 Kum kul a bawtnah a pha vaengah Solomon loh im panit, BOEIPA im neh manghai im te bawt a sak.

And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD, and the king’s house,

11 Tyre manghai Khiram loh Solomon te lamphai thing nen khaw, hmaical thing nen khaw, sui nen khaw a cungkuem dongah a kongaih bangla a talong vaengah tah manghai Solomon loh Khiram te Galilee khohmuen ah khopuei pakul a paek.

( Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire, ) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

12 Tedae Khiram te Solomon loh anih taengah a paek khopuei sawt ham la Tyre lamloh a caeh vaengah tah a mik ah cop pawh.

And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.

13 Te vaengah, “Ka manuca aw, kai taengah nan paek khopuei rhoek he mebang nim?” a ti nah. Te dongah te rhoek te tahae khohnin duela Kabuul khohmuen la a khue.

And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul to this day.

14 Te vaengah Khiram loh manghai taengah sui talent ya pakul a pat.

And Hiram sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.

15 Saldong olka dongah he manghai Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh amah im, vaikhap neh Jerusalem vongtung, Hazor, Megiddo neh Gezer thoh ham ni a. doek.

And this is the reason of the forced labour which king Solomon raised; to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

16 Egypt manghai Pharaoh loh cet tih Gezer te a tuuk. Te te hmai neh a hoeh phoeiah khopuei kah khosa Kanaan rhoek te a ngawn. Te phoeiah khopuei te a canu, Solomon yuu taengah maan la a paek.

For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a present to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

17 Solomon loh Gezer neh a dang Bethhoron te a thoh.

And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the lower,

18 Tedae Baalath, Tamar neh Tadmor tah khohmuen kah khosoek ah om.

And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

19 Rhuengim khopuei boeih, leng khopuei rhoek, marhang caem khopuei he Solomon taengah a om pah. Solomon kah huengaihnah te tah Jerusalem ah, Lebanon ah, a khohung khohmuen tom ah sak hamla a kocuk.

And all the store cities that Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

20 Amori, Khitti, Perizzi, Khivee, Jebusi lamkah aka sueng pilnam boeih, amih Israel ca rhoek lamkah pawt te tah,

And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel,

21 khohmuen ah amih hnukah aka sueng a ca rhoek, amih thup ham te Israel ca rhoek loh noeng uh pawh. Te dongah Solomon loh amih te saldong la a doek tih tahae khohnin duela thotat uh.

Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Solomon raise forced labour to this day.

22 Tedae Israel ca te tah Solomon loh sal la khueh pawh. Amih te caemtloek hlang neh a sal rhoek, a mangpa, a rhalboei, leng mangpa neh marhang caem la om uh.

But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no slaves: but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.

23 Solomon kah bitat soah aka pai mangpa rhoek he ya nga sawmnga lo tih bitat dongah aka thotat pilnam te a taemrhai uh.

These were the chief of the officers that were over Solomon’s work, five hundred and fifty, who bore rule over the people that wrought in the work.

24 Tedae Pharaoh canu tah anih ham a sak pah a im te David khopuei lamloh a paan daengah vaikhap te a sak pah.

But Pharaoh’s daughter came up from the city of David to her house which Solomon had built for her: then he built Millo.

25 Solomon loh kum khat ah voei thum tah hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah te BOEIPA ham a sak pah hmueihtuk dongah a nawn. Te te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a phum tih im te a cung sak.

And three times in a year did Solomon offer burnt offerings and peace offerings upon the altar which he built to the LORD, and he burnt incense upon the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.

26 Solomon manghai loh Eziongeber ah sangpho a saii. Te te Edom khohmuen kah carhaek tuili kaeng kah Elath taengah om.

And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Eziongeber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.

27 Te vaengah Khiram loh a sal rhoek khaw, tuitunli aka ming sangpho hlang khaw, sangpho dongah Solomon kah sal rhoek taengla a tueih pah.

And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, sailors that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

28 Te dongah Ophir la a pawk uh vaengah te lamloh sui talent ya li pakul a khuen uh tih manghai Solomon taengla a pawk puei uh.

And they came to Ophir, and obtained from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
