< 2 Chronicles 2 >
1 Solomon ordered the building of a Temple to honor the Lord and a royal palace for himself.
Solomon chun Pakai min jabolna dingin Houin khat le ama chenna ding mong mong Leng Inpi khat sadoh dingin kigel lhuhna aneitan ahi.
2 He allocated 70,000 men as laborers, 80,000 as stone cutters in the mountains, and 3,600 as foremen.
Hichea dingchun natong ding mi sangsom sagi thinglhang gam'a songkhoh ding mi sangsomget chule natongho vesuiding mi sangthum le Jagup alhengdoh tan ahi.
3 Solomon sent a message to Hiram, king of Tyre, telling him,
Solomon chun Tyre Lengpa Hiram henga dingin thu hiti hin athot in “Kapa David in a chenna ding leng inpi asahna dinga, Cedar thing nana bolpeh ji bangchun keima jong neihin bolpeh in;
4 “Please do as you did with my father David when you sent him cedar timber for him to build a palace to live in. I'm about to start building a Temple to honor the Lord my God, dedicated to him, where he will be offered sweet-smelling incense, where the showbread will be always set out in rows, and where burnt offerings will be made every morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, at new moon festivals, and at the feasts of the Lord our God—this to be done forever in Israel.
Keiman jong Pakai ka Pathen jabolna dinga houin kasah ding ahi. Hiche mun chu atumbeh a ama angsunga gimnamtwi halnam na’a changlhah agol gola koina’a, beitih neilou’a kitohdoh thiltona’a chule jingkah –nilhah le cholngah nikho a pumgo thilto tona ding, lhahthah nikho she’a manding; chule Pakai Kapathen’u angsunga, aphat kitep peh kut hoa manna ding mun hiding ahi.
5 This Temple I am about to build must be impressive, because our God is greater than all gods.
Hiche Houin hi Inlen Thupitah hiding ahi, ajeh chu ka Pathen’u hi Pathen dang jouse sanga lenjo thupijo ahi.
6 But who can build a Temple for him to live in, for the heavens, even highest heaven, cannot contain him, and who am I that I should dare to build him a house, except to burn incense to him?
Hijeng jongleh Koiham Pathen chenna ding inlentah akilomtah sadoh jou ding chu, Ijeh-inem itileh amachu vanho jousen jong adol lou ding ahi. Hiti ahijeh chun, Pumgo thilto ho halnam nading tilou chu; Keima koi kahija Pathen chenna ding in chu kasah jou ding ham?
7 So please send me a master craftsman who is skilled in working with gold, silver, bronze, and iron; and in purple, scarlet, and blue fabrics. He must also know how to engrave, working together with my expert craftsmen from Judea and Jerusalem provided by my father David.
Hiti ahijeh chun sana dangka, sum-eng le thih khengthem ho ponsandup, asan-ao le pondum khongthem ho; chule song khengthem ho neihin solpeh in, amaho chun kapa David in analhen dohsa Judah le Jerusalem a natoh thilbol themho tochun atoh khom diu ahi.
8 Also send me cedar, cypress, and algum timber from Lebanon, for I know that your workers are skillful in cutting down the trees of Lebanon. I will send men to help your workers
Lebanon gam'a um Cedar thing, Chah thing le Algum thing jong chu inthing dingin neihin tolpeh in, ajeh chu Lebanon’a um namite chu thingsui, thing-at lama amaho phajou ding aumpoi. Amaho kithopi dinga chu kamite kahin solpeh diu ahi.
9 to produce a large quantity of timber because the Temple I'm building will be really large and very impressive.
Keiman kasah ding Houin hi inlentah le thupitah ahiding jeh hin, inthing tamtah lut ding ahi.
10 I will pay your workers, the wood-cutters, 20,000 cors of crushed wheat, 20,000 cors of barley, 20,000 baths of wine, and 20,000 baths of olive oil.”
Nathingsui, nathing at miho dinga chu atoh man diu suhlou changbong atena dim sang somni; sakol chang atena dim sangsomni, lengpithei twi atena sangsomni le Olive thaotwi atena dim sang somni kapeh ding ahi.
11 King Hiram of Tyre responded to Solomon by letter: “It's because the Lord loves his people that he has made you their king.”
Tyre Lengpa Hiram chun Solomon lekha thot donbutnan hitihin asunin alethot kit tan, “Pakaiyin amite alungsetnin, hijeh chun Aman alengpau vin napansahtai.
12 Hiram went on, “Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth! He has given King David a wise son with insight and understanding who is going to build a Temple for the Lord and a royal palace for himself.
Vahchoiyun Pakai Israel Pathen chu, Amachun Leng David chu chapa chingtah khat thepna le thil hethemna toh apeh than; amachun Pakai Houin le Leng inpi asahdoh ding ahi.
13 I'm sending you Hiram-Abi, a master craftsman who knows and understands what he's doing.
Keiman natong themtah, Khutthemna sangtah nei Huram-abi kitipa chu kahin solpeh e.
14 His mother is from the tribe of Dan and his father is from Tyre. He's an expert in working with gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple, blue, and crimson fabric, and fine linen. He can do all kinds of engraving and can make any design he's given. He'll work with your craftsmen and with the craftsmen of my lord, your father David.
Amahi anu Israel nam mi Dan phunga kon ahin, apa hi Tyre gam mi ahi. Amahi Sana dangka sum-eng le thih a kona thil sem themtah chule thingle songa kona jong thilsem themtah ahi. Ponsandup, ponsan-ao, pondum le tupat ponnem khongthem, thiljem semthem jong ahin, itobang jem hijongle akinganse na jouse chu boldoh jengthei ahi. Hitia chu amahin napa kapu David in analhendoh natong themsa ho tochun atoh khom diu ahi.
15 Now my lord, please send to us his servants the wheat, barley, olive oil, and wine he spoke about.
Hiti ahijeh chun tun Kapun naseisaho suhlou changbong, sakol chang, lengpithei twi le olive thao twi chu neihin thot jengtan,” ati.
16 We will cut all timber you need from Lebanon and take it to you by sea in rafts to Joppa. From there you can transport it to Jerusalem.”
Keihon itobang thing hijongle nadei dei uchu Lebanon lhanga hin sui uvin ting, Mediterranean dillen panga konin pum chungah Joppa chan hintol pehtaovinge. Hiche lai munna kon chun nanghon thing hochu Jerusalem chan nakitol lut thei u ahitai.
17 Solomon had a census taken of all the foreigners in the land of Israel, like the census his father David had conducted, and found there were 153,600.
Solomon chun apan anabol bangin Israel gamsunga cheng gampam miho simna aneiyin ahile agomin mi sangjakhat le sang somnga le thum aphan ahi.
18 He allocated 70,000 as laborers, 80,000 as stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 as foremen.
Amaho lah’a chun mi sang somsagi chu thilpole ding, sang somget chu thinglhang gam'a songkhoh ding chule sang somthum le gup chu natoh vesui dingin nganse na aneitan ahi.
