1 Kings 5
1 And Hiram King of Tyrus sent his seruants vnto Salomon, (for he had heard, that they had anoynted him King in the roume of his father) because Hiram had euer loued Dauid.
Hiramu mfumu ya ku Turo atamva kuti Solomoni wadzozedwa kukhala mfumu mʼmalo mwa abambo ake Davide, anatumiza akazembe ake kwa Solomoni, chifukwa mfumu Hiramu inali pa ubale wabwino ndi Davide nthawi zonse.
2 Also Salomon sent to Hiram, saying,
Solomoni anabweza mawu awa kwa Hiramu:
3 Thou knowest that Dauid my father could not build an house vnto the Name of the Lord his God, for the warres which were about him on euery side, vntill the Lord had put them vnder the soles of his feete.
“Inu mukudziwa kuti chifukwa cha nkhondo zimene zinkachokera ku mbali zonse kulimbana ndi abambo anga, iwo sanathe kumangira Nyumba Yehova Mulungu wawo, mpaka Yehova atawayika adani awo pansi pa ulamuliro wawo.
4 But now the Lord my God hath giuen me rest on euery side, so that there is neither aduersarie, nor euill to resist.
Koma tsopano Yehova Mulungu wanga wandipatsa mtendere mbali zonse za dziko ndipo ndilibe mdani kapena chovuta chilichonse.
5 And beholde, I purpose to build an house vnto ye Name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spake vnto Dauid my father, saying, Thy sonne, whom I wil set vpon thy throne for thee, he shall build an house vnto my Name.
Choncho ine ndikufuna kumangira nyumba Yehova Mulungu wanga, monga momwe Iye anawuzira abambo anga Davide kuti, ‘Mwana wako amene ndidzamukhazike pa mpando waufumu mʼmalo mwako ndiye adzandimangire Nyumba.’
6 Now therefore commaund, that they hewe me cedar trees out of Lebanon, and my seruants shall be with thy seruants, and vnto thee will I giue the hire for thy seruants, according to all that thou shalt appoynt: for thou knowest that there are none among vs, that can hewe timber like vnto the Sidonians.
“Choncho lamulani kuti andidulire mikungudza ya ku Lebanoni. Anthu anga adzagwira ntchito imeneyo pamodzi ndi anthu anuwo, ndipo ine ndidzalipira anthu anuwo malipiro amene inu mungakhazikitse. Inu mukudziwa kuti ife tilibe anthu aluso locheka matabwa monga Asidoni.”
7 And when Hiram heard the wordes of Salomon, he reioyced greatly, and sayde, Blessed be the Lord this day, which hath giuen vnto Dauid a wise sonne ouer this mightie people.
Hiramu anakondwa kwambiri atamva uthenga wa Solomoni ndipo anati, “Lero Yehova atamandike chifukwa wapatsa Davide mwana wanzeru kuti alamulire mtundu waukuluwu.”
8 And Hiram sent to Salomon, saying, I haue considered the things, for the which thou sentest vnto me, and will accomplish all thy desire, concerning the cedar trees and firre trees.
Tsono Hiramu anabweza mawu awa kwa Solomoni: “Ndalandira uthenga umene mwanditumizira ndipo ine ndidzachita zonse zimene mukufuna pokupatsani mitengo ya mkungudza ndi payini.
9 My seruants shall bring them downe from Lebanon to the sea: and I will conuey them by sea in raftes vnto the place that thou shalt shew me, and wil cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receiue them: nowe thou shalt doe mee a pleasure to minister foode for my familie.
Anthu anga adzatsika nayo kuchokera ku Lebanoni mpaka ku nyanja, ndipo adzayiyandamitsa pa nyanja mpaka ku malo amene munene. Kumeneko ndidzayimasula ndipo mudzayitenga. Ndipo inu mudzakwaniritsa chokhumba changa pondipatsa chakudya cha banja langa laufumu.”
10 So Hiram gaue Salomon cedar trees and firre trees, euen his full desire.
Motero Hiramu anapereka kwa Solomoni mitengo yonse ya mkungudza ndi payini imene ankayifuna,
11 And Salomon gaue Hiram twentie thousand measures of wheate for foode to his householde, and twentie measures of beaten oyle. Thus much gaue Salomon to Hiram yere by yere.
ndipo Solomoni anamupatsa Hiramu mitanga ya tirigu 20,000 ngati chakudya cha pa nyumba yake, kuwonjezera pa migolo ya mafuta a olivi yokwana 20,000. Solomoni anapitiriza kupereka zimenezi chaka ndi chaka.
12 And the Lord gaue Salomon wisedome as he promised him. And there was peace betweene Hiram and Salomon, and they two made a couenant.
Yehova anamupatsa Solomoni nzeru monga momwe analonjezera. Panali ubale wa mtendere pakati pa Solomoni ndi Hiramu, ndipo awiriwa anachita pangano.
13 And King Salomon raised a summe out of all Israel, and the summe was thirtie thousand men:
Mfumu Solomoni inasonkhanitsa anthu ogwira ntchito ya thangata mʼdziko lonse la Israeli ndipo anthu athangatawo analipo 30,000.
14 Whome he sent to Lebanon, ten thousand a moneth by course: they were a moneth in Lebanon, and two moneths at home. And Adoniram was ouer the summe.
Iye ankatumiza anthu 10,000 ku Lebanoni pa mwezi mosinthanasinthana, kotero kuti ankakhala ku Lebanoniko mwezi umodzi ndipo kwawo ankakhalako miyezi iwiri. Adoniramu ndiye ankayangʼanira ogwira ntchito yathangatayo.
15 And Salomon had seuentie thousand that bare burdens, and fourescore thousand masons in the mountaine,
Solomoni anali ndi anthu amtengatenga 70,000, anthu 80,000 osema miyala ku mapiri,
16 Besides the princes, whome Salomon appoynted ouer the worke, euen three thousande and three hundreth, which ruled the people that wrought in the worke.
ndi akapitawo 33,000 amene ankayangʼanira ntchitoyi ndiponso anthu ogwira ntchito zina.
17 And the King commanded them, and they brought great stones and costly stones to make the foundation of the house, euen hewed stones.
Molamulidwa ndi mfumu, anakumba ndi kusema miyala ikuluikulu kwambiri yoti akamangire maziko a Nyumba ya Mulungu.
18 And Salomons workemen, and the workemen of Hiram, and the masons hewed and prepared timber and stones for the buylding of the house.
Amisiri a Solomoni ndi a Hiramu ndiponso anthu a ku Gebala anasema miyala ndi kukonza matabwa ndi miyala yomangira Nyumba ya Mulungu.
