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.
Alò, Hiram, wa Tyr la, te voye sèvitè li yo kote Salomon lè li te tande ke yo te onksyone li wa nan plas a papa li, paske Hiram te konn toujou zanmi David.
2 Also Salomon sent to Hiram, saying,
Epi Salomon te voye kote Hiram pou di:
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.
“Ou konnen ke David, papa m, pa t kapab bati yon kay pou non a SENYÈ a, akoz gè ki te antoure li yo, jiskaske SENYÈ a te mete yo anba pla pye li.
4 But now the Lord my God hath giuen me rest on euery side, so that there is neither aduersarie, nor euill to resist.
Men koulye a, SENYÈ a te ban m repo tout kote. Nanpwen advèsè ni malè.
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.
Gade byen, “Mwen gen entansyon bati yon kay pou non SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an, jan SENYÈ a te pale a David la, papa m nan, kon Li te di: ‘Fis ou a, ke mwen va mete sou twòn pa w la, nan plas ou a, li va bati kay la pou non Mwen.’
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.
Alò, pou sa, bay lòd pou yo koupe pou mwen sèd Liban e sèvitè mwen yo va la avèk sèvitè pa ou yo, epi mwen va ba ou salè pou sèvitè ou yo selon tout sa ke ou di. Paske ou konnen ke nanpwen pami nou ki konprann kijan pou koupe bwa tankou Sidonyen yo.”
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.
Lè Hiram te tande pawòl a Salomon yo, li te rejwi anpil. Li te di: “Beni se SENYÈ a nan jou sila a, ki te bay a David yon fis ki saj sou gran pèp sa a.”
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.
Konsa, Hiram te voye kote Salomon e te di: “Mwen te tande sa ke ou voye di mwen an. Mwen va fè sa ke ou vle de bwa sèd avèk pichpen an.
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.
Sèvitè mwen yo va mennen yo desann soti Liban rive kote lanmè a. Mwen va mare yo ansanm pou fè yo rive pa lanmè nan plas kote ou dirije m nan. Nou va kase yo la pou moun ou yo kab pote yo ale. Alò, ou va akonpli volonte m e ou bay manje a tout lakay mwen.”
10 So Hiram gaue Salomon cedar trees and firre trees, euen his full desire.
Konsa, Hiram te bay Salomon tout sa li te vle nan bwa sèd avèk pichpen yo.
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.
Salomon te bay Hiram ven-mil barik nan ble a kòm manje pou lakay li ak ven barik nan lwil bat la. Konsa Salomon te bay Hiram ane pa ane.
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.
SENYÈ a te ba li sajès, jis jan ke Li te pwomèt li a. Epi te gen lapè antre Hiram avèk Salomon e yo de a te fè yon akò.
13 And King Salomon raised a summe out of all Israel, and the summe was thirtie thousand men:
Alò, Wa Salomon te fè kòve obligatwa soti nan tout Israël la. Kòve fòse yo te konte trant-mil moun.
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.
Li te voye yo nan Liban, di-mil moun pa mwa, yon ekip apre lòt ak de mwa lakay. Adoniram te chèf sou ouvriye kòve yo.
15 And Salomon had seuentie thousand that bare burdens, and fourescore thousand masons in the mountaine,
Alò, Salomon te gen swasann-di-mil transpòtè ak katre-ven-mil ki t ap taye wòch nan mòn yo.
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.
Anplis, Salomon te gen twa-mil-twa-san depite an chèf ki te sou pwojè a. Yo te chèf dirijan sou moun ki t ap fè travay yo.
17 And the King commanded them, and they brought great stones and costly stones to make the foundation of the house, euen hewed stones.
Alò, wa a te pase lòd pou yo te tayegwo wòch yo, wòch chè pou poze fondasyon kay la ak wòch taye.
18 And Salomons workemen, and the workemen of Hiram, and the masons hewed and prepared timber and stones for the buylding of the house.
Konsa, moun Salomon ki t ap bati yo, moun Hiram ki t ap bati yo, epi Gibliyen yo t ap koupe yo e prepare bwa yo ansanm ak wòch yo pou bati kay la.
