< Kings III 5 >

1 And Chiram king of Tyre sent his servants to anoint Solomon in the room of David his father, because Chiram always loved David.
Hiiraam mootichi Xiiroos yommuu akka Solomoon abbaa isaa Daawitin iddoo buʼuuf dibame dhagaʼetti ergamoota isaa gara Solomoonitti erge; Hiiraam yeroo kam iyyuu michuu Daawit tureetii.
2 And Solomon sent to Chiram, saying,
Solomoonis akkana jedhee Hiiraamiif ergaa kana deebisee erge:
3 You knew my father David, that he could not build a house to the name of the Lord my God because of the wars that compassed him about, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.
“Akka Abbaan koo Daawit sababii waraana karaa hundaan isa marsee ture sanaatiif hamma Waaqayyo diinota isaa miilla isaa jala galchuufitti Maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa isaatiif mana qulqullummaa ijaaruu hin dandaʼin atuu beekta.
4 And now the Lord my God has given me rest round about; there is no one plotting against [me], and there is no evil trespass [against me].
Amma garuu Waaqayyo Waaqni koo karaa hundaan boqonnaa naa kenneera; diinni yookaan balaan tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
5 And, behold, I intend to build a house to the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord God spoke to my father David, saying, Your son whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build a house to my name.
Kanaafuu ani amma akkuma Waaqayyo abbaa koo Daawitiin, ‘Ilmi kee kan ani iddoo kee teessoo kee irra teessisu Maqaa kootiif mana qulqullummaa ni ijaara’ jedhe sanatti Maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa kootiif mana qulqullummaa ijaaruu yaadeera.
6 And now command, and let [men] cut wood for me out of Libanus: and, behold, my servants [shall be] with your servants, and I will give you the wages of your service, according to all that you shall say, because you know that we have no one skilled in cutting timber like the Sidonians.
“Kanaafuu akka birbirsi Libaanoon naaf muramu ajaji. Namoonni koo namoota kee wajjin hojjetu; anis mindaa ati hojjettoota keetiif murteessitu kam iyyuu siifin kaffala. Akka nu muka baqaqsuu irratti akka Siidoonotaa ogeeyyii hin taʼin atuu beekta.”
7 And it came to pass, as soon as Chiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] God today, who has given to David a wise son over this numerous people.
Hiiraamis yommuu dhaamsa Solomoon sana dhagaʼetti akka malee gammadee, “Harʼa Waaqayyo haa eebbifamu; inni akka Solomoon saba guddaa kana bulchuuf ilma ogeessa kana Daawitiif kenneeraatii” jedhe.
8 And he sent to Solomon, saying, I have listened concerning all that you have sent to me for: I will do all your will: [as for] timber of cedar and fir,
Kanaafuu Hiiraam akkana jedhee Solomoonitti ergaa erge: “Ani ergaa ati naa ergite argadheera; birbirsaa fi jirma birbirsaa dhiʼeessuudhaan waan ati barbaaddu hunda siifan godha.
9 my servants shall bring them down from Libanus to the sea: I will form them [into] rafts, [and bring them] to the place which you shall send to me [about]; and I will land them there, and you shall take [them] up: and you shall do my will, in giving bread to my household.
Namoonni koo Libaanoon irraa gara galaanaatti gad fidu; anis walitti hidhee lafa ati filattutti galaana irra siifan erga; achittis gargari nan hiika. Atis muka sana ni fudhatta; warra mana koo jiraataniif immoo nyaata dhiʼeessuudhaan fedhii koo guutta.”
10 So Chiram gave to Solomon cedars, and fir trees, and all his desire.
Hiiroomis akkasiin birbirsaa fi jirma birbirsaa kan Solomooniif barbaachisu dhiʼeessaafii ture.
11 And Solomon gave to Chiram twenty thousand measures of wheat as food for his house, and twenty thousand baths of beaten oil thus Solomon gave to Chiram yearly.
Solomoonis akka warra mana Hiiraam jiraataniif nyaata taʼuuf qamadii safartuu qoroosii kuma digdamaa fi zayitii ejersaa kan cuunfame koorii kuma digdama kenne. Solomoon ittuma fufee wagguma waggaan waan kana Hiiraamiif kennaa ture.
12 And the Lord gave wisdom to Solomon as he promised him; and there was peace between Chiram and Solomon, and they made a covenant between them.
Waaqayyos akkuma isa abdachiisetti Solomooniif ogummaa ni kenne. Hiiraamii fi Solomoon gidduu walitti dhufeenya nagaatu ture; isaan lamaanuu walii galtee godhatan.
13 And the king raised a levy out of all Israel, and the levy was thirty thousand men.
Solomoon mootichis Israaʼel hunda keessaa namoota dirqiidhaan hojii humnaa hojjetan kuma soddoma walitti qabe.
14 And he sent them to Libanus, ten thousand taking turn every month: they were a month in Libanus and two months at home: and Adoniram [was] over the levy.
Innis akka isaan jiʼa tokko Libaanoon keessa, jiʼa lamaa immoo mana isaanii turaniif jedhee, jiʼa tokko tokkoof nama kuma kudhan qoodee Libaanoonitti erge. Adooniiraam immoo itti gaafatamaa namoota dirqiidhaan hojii humnaa hojjetanii ture.
15 And Solomon had seventy thousand bearers of burdens, and eighty thousand hewers of stone in the mountain;
Solomoon namoota baʼaa baatan kuma torbaatamaa fi warra dhagaa cabsan kuma saddeettama gaarran keessaa qaba ture;
16 besides the rulers that were appointed over the works of Solomon, [there were] three thousand six hundred masters who wrought in the works.
akkasumas namoota hojii hojjechiisanii hojjettoota illee toʼatan kuma sadii fi dhibba sadii qaba ture.
17 [And the king commanded and they ] [brought great stones, precious stones for the foundation of the house, and unhewn stones. ]
Isaanis mootichi ajaja kenninaan dhagoota soofamaniin hundee mana qulqullummaa buusuudhaaf dhagoota gurguddaa fi dhagoota gatii guddaa fidan.
18 And they prepared the stones and the timber [during] three years.
Ogeeyyiin hojii harkaa Solomoonii fi Hiiroom akkasumas namoonni Gebaal mana qulqullummaa ijaaruuf mukaa fi dhagaa cabsanii qopheessan.
