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.
Now when Solomon came to the end of building the house of the Lord and the king's house, and all Solomon's desires, which he had in mind were effected;
2 BOEIPA he Gibeon ah a taengla aphoe bangla Solomon taengah a pabae la a phoe pah.
The Lord came to him again in a vision, as he had done 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, Your prayers and your requests for grace have come to my ears: I have made holy this house which you have made, and I have put my name there for ever; my eyes and my heart will be there at all times.
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.
As for you, if you will go on your way before me, as David your father did, uprightly and with a true heart, doing what I have given you orders to do, keeping my laws and my decisions;
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 make the seat of your rule over Israel certain for ever, as I gave my word to David your father, saying, You will never be without a man to be king in 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 you are turned from my ways, you or your children, and do not keep my orders and my laws which I have put before you, but go and make yourselves servants to other gods and give them worship:
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 I will have Israel cut off from the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for myself, I will put away from before my eyes; and Israel will be a public example, and a word of shame among all peoples.
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 this house will become a mass of broken walls, and everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder at it and make whistling sounds; and they will say, Why has the Lord done so 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 their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord their God, who took their fathers out of the land of Egypt; they took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why the Lord has sent all this evil on them.
10 Kum kul a bawtnah a pha vaengah Solomon loh im panit, BOEIPA im neh manghai im te bawt a sak.
Now at the end of twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up 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.
(Hiram, king of Tyre, had given Solomon cedar-trees and cypress-trees and gold, as much as he had need of, ) King Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns 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.
But when Hiram came from Tyre to see the towns which Solomon had given him, he was not pleased with them.
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 sort of towns are these which you have given me, my brother? So they were named the land of Cabul, to this day.
14 Te vaengah Khiram loh manghai taengah sui talent ya pakul a pat.
And Hiram sent the king a 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.
Now, this was the way of Solomon's system of forced work for the building of the Lord's house and of the king's house, and the Millo and the wall of Jerusalem 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.
Pharaoh, king of Egypt, came and took Gezer, burning it down and putting to death the Canaanites living in the town, and he gave it for a bride-offering to his daughter, Solomon's wife. ...
17 Solomon loh Gezer neh a dang Bethhoron te a thoh.
... and Solomon was the builder of Gezer and Beth-horon the lower,
18 Tedae Baalath, Tamar neh Tadmor tah khohmuen kah khosoek ah om.
And Baalath and Tamar in the waste land, in that 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-towns and the towns which Solomon had for his war-carriages and for his horsemen, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.
20 Amori, Khitti, Perizzi, Khivee, Jebusi lamkah aka sueng pilnam boeih, amih Israel ca rhoek lamkah pawt te tah,
As for the rest of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not 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 who were still in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not been able to put to complete destruction, them did Solomon put to forced work, 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 Solomon did not put the children of Israel to forced work; they were the men of war, his servants, his captains, and his chiefs, captains of his war-carriages and of 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 chiefs of the overseers of Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, in authority over the people who did 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.
At that time Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her: then he made the 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.
Three times in the year it was Solomon's way to give burned offerings and peace-offerings on the altar he had made to the Lord, causing his fire-offering to go up on the altar before the Lord.
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 sea-force of ships in Ezion-geber, by Eloth, on 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.
Hiram sent his servants, who were experienced seamen, in the sea-force with Solomon's men.
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, where they got four hundred and twenty talents of gold, and took it back to King Solomon.
