As for all the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which were not of Israel,
8 Amih koca lamkah te amih hnuk la khohmuen ah sueng uh. Amih te Israel ca rhoek a khah uh pawt dongah tahae khohnin hil Solomon taengah saldong la cet.
But of their children, who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, them did Solomon make to pay tribute until this day.

But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen.

And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy, whereunto the ark of YHWH hath come.
12 Te vaengah Solomon loh ngalha hmai kah a suem BOEIPA kah hmueihtuk dongah BOEIPA ham hmueihhlutnah a khuen.
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto YHWH on the altar of YHWH, which he had built before the porch,
13 Moses kah olpaek bangla a hnin hnin ah nawn hamla Sabbath ham neh hlasae ham khaw, kum khat khuikah voei thum tingtunnah ham khaw, vaidamding khotue ham khaw, yalh khat khotue ham khaw, pohlip khotue ham ol om coeng.
Even after a certain rate every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.

He tah Pathen kah hlang David kah olpaek ni.
And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of Elohim commanded.
15 Olka cungkuem neh thakvoh kawng dongah khaw khosoih rhoek neh Levi taengkah manghai olpaek he a phaelh uh moenih.
And they departed not from the commandment of the king unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.
16 Solomon kah bitat boeih he BOEIPA im kah tungkho a sut khohnin lamloh rhuemtuet la BOEIPA im a khah hil cung coeng.
Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of YHWH, and until it was finished. So the house of YHWH was perfected.
17 Te vaengah Solomon te Edom khohmuen kah tuipuei tuikaeng Eziongeber neh Elath la cet.
Then went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom.
18 Te phoeiah Huram te a sal rhoek kut lamloh amah taengla sangpho neh a tah. Te dongah sangpho neh tuipuei aka ming a sal rhoek khaw Solomon kah sal neh Ophir la pawk uh. Te lamloh sui talent ya li sawmnga te a khuen uh tih manghai Solomon taengla pawk uh.
And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
