1 Kings 5
1 Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the place of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.
| وَأَرْسَلَ حِيرَامُ مَلِكُ صُورَ عَبِيدَهُ إِلَى سُلَيْمَانَ، لِأَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَّهُمْ مَسَحُوهُ مَلِكًا مَكَانَ أَبِيهِ، لِأَنَّ حِيرَامَ كَانَ مُحِبًّا لِدَاوُدَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. | ١ |
2 Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
| فَأَرْسَلَ سُلَيْمَانُ إِلَى حِيرَامَ يَقُولُ: | ٢ |
3 "You know how that David my father could not build a house for the name of YHWH his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until YHWH put them under the soles of his feet.
| «أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ دَاوُدَ أَبِي أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ بَيْتًا لِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْحُرُوبِ ٱلَّتِي أَحَاطَتْ بِهِ، حَتَّى جَعَلَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ تَحْتَ بَطْنِ قَدَمَيْهِ. | ٣ |
4 But now YHWH my God has given me rest on every side. There is neither adversary, nor evil occurrence.
| وَٱلْآنَ فَقَدْ أَرَاحَنِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْجِهَاتِ فَلَا يُوجَدُ خَصْمٌ وَلَا حَادِثَةُ شَرٍّ. | ٤ |
5 Look, I purpose to build a house for the name of YHWH my God, as YHWH spoke to David my father, saying, 'Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build the house for my name.'
| وَهَأَنَذَا قَائِلٌ عَلَى بِنَاءِ بَيْتٍ لِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِي كَمَا كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ دَاوُدَ أَبِي قَائِلًا: إِنَّ ٱبْنَكَ ٱلَّذِي أَجْعَلُهُ مَكَانَكَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ هُوَ يَبْنِي ٱلْبَيْتَ لِٱسْمِي. | ٥ |
6 Now therefore command that they cut me cedar trees out of Lebanon. My servants shall be with your servants; and I will give you wages for your servants according to all that you shall say. For you know that there is not among us any who knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians."
| وَٱلْآنَ فَأْمُرْ أَنْ يَقْطَعُوا لِي أَرْزًا مِنْ لُبْنَانَ، وَيَكُونُ عَبِيدِي مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ، وَأُجْرَةُ عَبِيدِكَ أُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا تَقُولُ، لِأَنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بَيْنَنَا أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ قَطْعَ ٱلْخَشَبِ مِثْلَ ٱلصِّيْدُونِيِّينَ». | ٦ |
7 It happened, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, "Blessed is YHWH this day, who has given to David a wise son over this great people."
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ حِيرَامُ كَلَامَ سُلَيْمَانَ، فَرِحَ جِدًّا وَقَالَ: «مُبَارَكٌ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَى دَاوُدَ ٱبْنًا حَكِيمًا عَلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ». | ٧ |
8 Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, "I have heard the message which you have sent to me. I will satisfy all your desire concerning cedar wood and concerning the wood of evergreens.
| وَأَرْسَلَ حِيرَامُ إِلَى سُلَيْمَانَ قَائِلًا: «قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَا أَرْسَلْتَ بِهِ إِلَيَّ. أَنَا أَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَسَرَّتِكَ فِي خَشَبِ ٱلْأَرْزِ وَخَشَبِ ٱلسَّرْوِ. | ٨ |
9 My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. I will make them into rafts to go by sea to the place that you shall appoint me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and you shall receive them. You shall accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household."
| عَبِيدِي يُنْزِلُونَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ لُبْنَانَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَأَنَا أَجْعَلُهُ أَرْمَاثًا فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي تُعَرِّفُنِي عَنْهُ وَأَنْفُضُهُ هُنَاكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَحْمِلُهُ، وَأَنْتَ تَعْمَلُ مَرْضَاتِي بِإِعْطَائِكَ طَعَامًا لِبَيْتِي». | ٩ |
10 So Hiram gave Solomon timber of cedar and timber of fir according to all his desire.
| فَكَانَ حِيرَامُ يُعْطِي سُلَيْمَانَ خَشَبَ أَرْزٍ وَخَشَبَ سَرْوٍ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَسَرَّتِهِ. | ١٠ |
11 Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat for food to his household, and twenty thousand baths of pure oil. Solomon gave this to Hiram year by year.
| وَأَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانُ حِيرَامَ عِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ كُرِّ حِنْطَةٍ طَعَامًا لِبَيْتِهِ، وَعِشْرِينَ كُرَّ زَيْتِ رَضٍّ. هَكَذَا كَانَ سُلَيْمَانُ يُعْطِي حِيرَامَ سَنَةً فَسَنَةً. | ١١ |
12 YHWH gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and the two of them made a covenant.
| وَٱلرَّبُّ أَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانَ حِكْمَةً كَمَا كَلَّمَهُ. وَكَانَ صُلْحٌ بَيْنَ حِيرَامَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ، وَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا عَهْدًا. | ١٢ |
13 King Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
| وَسَخَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَتِ ٱلسُّخَرُ ثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ. | ١٣ |
14 He sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses; a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home; and Adoniram was over the men subject to forced labor.
| فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ إِلَى لُبْنَانَ عَشْرَةَ آلَافٍ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ بِٱلنَّوْبَةِ. يَكُونُونَ شَهْرًا فِي لُبْنَانَ وَشَهْرَيْنِ فِي بُيُوتِهِمْ. وَكَانَ أَدُونِيرَامُ عَلَى ٱلتَّسْخِيرِ. | ١٤ |
15 Solomon had seventy thousand who bore burdens, and eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains;
| وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا يَحْمِلُونَ أَحْمَالًا، وَثَمَانُونَ أَلْفًا يَقْطَعُونَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، | ١٥ |
16 besides Solomon's chief officers who were over the work, three thousand and six hundred, who bore rule over the people who labored in the work.
| مَا عَدَا رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْوُكَلَاءِ لِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى ٱلْعَمَلِ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافٍ وَثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ، ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطِينَ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْعَامِلِينَ ٱلْعَمَلَ. | ١٦ |
17 The king commanded, and they cut out great stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with worked stone.
| وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنْ يَقْلَعُوا حِجَارَةً كَبِيرَةً، حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً لِتَأْسِيسِ ٱلْبَيْتِ، حِجَارَةً مُرَبَّعَةً. | ١٧ |
18 Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders and the Gebalites cut them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
| فَنَحَتَهَا بَنَّاؤُو سُلَيْمَانَ، وَبَنَّاؤُو حِيرَامَ وَٱلْجِبْلِيُّونَ، وَهَيَّأُوا ٱلْأَخْشَابَ وَٱلْحِجَارَةَ لِبِنَاءِ ٱلْبَيْتِ. | ١٨ |
