1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said, “Here, [at the edge of Jerusalem, ] is where [we will build] the temple for our God Yahweh, and where [we will make] the altar for burning the offerings that the Israeli [people will bring].”
Ke ma inge David el fahk, “Pa inge acn se ma Tempul lun LEUM GOD ac fah oan we. Pa inge loang se su mwet Israel ac tufah oru mwe kisa lalos fac.”
2 So David commanded that the foreigners who lived in Israel must gather together. [When they did that, ] he appointed [some of those] men to [cut huge] stones [from the quarries] and to smooth their surfaces, to be used to build the temple of God.
Tokosra David el sap mwetsac nukewa su muta in facl Israel in toeni, ac el sang orekma kunalos. Kutu selos tufahl eot lulap in sang musai Tempul uh.
3 David provided a large amount of iron for making nails and hinges for the doors in the gates of the temple. He also provided so much bronze [for making the altar and various utensils], that no one could weigh it all.
David el sap in utuku osra lulap mwe orek osra in patput ac osra in kapsreni polosak ke mutunpot, ac oayapa osra bronze na lulap-wangin mwet ku in etu toasriya.
4 He also provided [money for buying] a large amount of cedar logs. Because there was a huge number of them, no one was able to count them. Those were logs that men from Tyre and Sidon [cities] sent to David.
El sap mwet Tyre ac mwet Sidon in use polosak cedar pukanten.
5 David [provided all those things because he] thought, “My son Solomon is still young and he does not know what he needs to know [about building], and the temple of Yahweh must be (magnificent/very beautiful). It must be a glorious building that will become famous, and people throughout the world must consider it to be glorious/splendid. So now I will begin to prepare for it to be built, [and Solomon will be responsible for building it].” So David collected a great amount of building materials before he died.
In nunak lal David el nunku mu, “Tempul se su wen nutik Solomon el ac musai inge enenu in arulana oasku ac pwengpeng nu fin faclu nufon. Tuh inge el srakna fusr ac supah ke orekma, na pa nga enenu in akoo kufwen mwe orekma nukewa nu kac.” Ouinge David el akoela kufwen sroasr puspis meet liki el misa.
6 [When] David [was old, he] summoned his son Solomon, and told him that he should arrange for a temple to be built for Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worshiped].
El sapla solalma Solomon, wen natul, ac sapkin nu sel tuh elan musai sie tempul nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.
7 He said to him, “I wanted [IDM] to build a temple to honor [MTY] Yahweh, my God.
David el fahk nu sel, “Wen nutik, nga tuh kena musaela sie tempul in akfulatye LEUM GOD luk.
8 But Yahweh told [a prophet to tell] me, ‘You have killed many men [MTY] in the battles that you have fought. I have seen the blood of all the people whom you killed, so you will not be the one who will arrange for a temple to be built to honor me [MTY].
Tusruktu, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik lah pusle mwet nga uniya, ac pusle mweun nga oru. Na ke sripen yokla srah nga aksororyela, God El ac tia lela ngan musai sie tempul nu sel.
9 But you will have a son [who will be king of Israel after you die]. He will be a man who is peaceful and quiet, [not a man who kills others]. And I will cause that there will be peace between him and his enemies who are in all the nearby lands. His name will be Solomon, [which sounds like the word for peace]. During the time that he is king, people in Israel will be peaceful and safe.
Tusruktu El oru sie wulela nu sik ac fahk, ‘Ac fah oasr sie wen nutum su ac fah leum ke pacl in misla, mweyen nga ac fah akmisye inmasrlol ac mwet lokoalok lal. Inel ac fah pangpang Solomon, mweyen in pacl el leum, nga ac fah oru tuh mwet Israel in okak ac muta in misla.
10 He is the one who will arrange for a temple to be built to honor me [MTY]. He will be [like] a son to me, and I will cause some of his descendants to rule [MTY] over Israel forever [HYP].’
El ac fah musai sie tempul nu sik. El ac fah wen nutik, ac nga ac fah papa tumal. Fwilin tulik natul ac fah tokosra fin mwet Israel ma pahtpat.’”
11 “So now, my son, I hope/wish that Yahweh will help you, and enable you to be successful in arranging for building the temple of Yahweh, your God, which is what he said that you would do.
Na David el sifilpa fahk, “Wen nutik, lela tuh LEUM GOD lom in wi kom, ac finsrak in pwaye wulela lal keim tuh kom in ku in musaela sie tempul nu sel.
12 I also hope/wish that he will enable you to be wise and to understand what you need to know, and enable you to obey his laws while you rule over Israel.
Oayapa lela tuh LEUM GOD lom Elan asot etauk ac lalmwetmet nu sum, tuh kom fah ku in kol mwet Israel fal nu ke ma sap lal.
13 If you carefully obey all the laws and regulations/commands that Yahweh gave to Moses to give to us Israeli people, you will be successful. So be steadfast/strong and courageous. Do not be afraid of anything, and do not become discouraged!
Kom fin akos ma sap nukewa ma LEUM GOD El sang nu sel Moses in kol mwet Israel, na kom ac fah kapkapak in ma wo. Kom in ku ac pulaik. Nikmet sangeng ke kutena ma.
14 “I have tried hard to provide [materials] for [building] the temple of Yahweh. I have provided nearly 4,000 tons of gold, and nearly 40,000 tons of silver. I have also provided a very large amount of iron and bronze; no one has been able to weigh it all. I have also gathered/provided lumber and stone [for the walls of the temple], but you may need to get some more of those things.
Ac funu nu ke Tempul uh, sahp sun akosr tausin tuhn in gold oayapa apkuran angngaul tausin tuhn in silver nga sifacna fosrngakin in sang musaela. Sayen ma ingan, arulana pukanten osra bronze ac iron akoeyuk pac tari. Nga orala pac in oasr sak ac eot, tuh kom fah enenu in sifil sokak ma inge in weang pac.
15 There are many men [in Israel] who have good ability to cut big stones for making stone walls, and carpenters, and men who are very skilled at making various kinds of things.
Pukanten mwet orekma lom. Oasr mwet in tufahl eot, ac mwet orekma ke cement ac mwet sroasr, oayapa pus mwet usrnguk ke kain in orekma nukewa
16 There are many men who know how to make things from gold and silver and bronze and iron. So now [I say to you], begin the work [of building the temple], and I hope/wish that Yahweh will help/be with you.”
ke gold, silver, bronze, ac iron. Inge kom in mutawauk ke orekma se inge, ac lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan wi kom.”
17 Then David commanded that all the Israeli leaders must assist Solomon. He said to them,
David el sapkin nu sin mwet kol nukewa in Israel tuh elos in kasrel Solomon.
18 “Yahweh our God is certainly with/helping you [RHQ]. He has allowed you to have peace with all the nearby nations [RHQ]. He has enabled my [army] to conquer [IDM] them, so now Yahweh and my people control them.
El fahk mu, “LEUM GOD lowos El tuh wi kowos in pacl e nukewa, ac El oru tuh in oasr misla yen nukewa apunla facl suwos. El oru tuh nga in ku in kutangla mwet nukewa su muta in acn inge meet, ac inge elos muta ye pouwos ac ye poun LEUM GOD.
19 Now you must obey Yahweh completely. Help Solomon to arrange for building the temple for Yahweh God, in order that you can bring the Sacred Chest that contains the Ten Commandments and the other sacred items that belong to God into the temple that you will build to honor Yahweh.”
Inge kowos in kulansupu LEUM GOD lowos ke insiowos kewa ac ke ngunuwos kewa. Kowos in mutawauk musai Tempul an, tuh kowos in ku in filiya Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD loac, oayapa ma mutal nukewa ma orekmakinyuk ke pacl kowos alu nu sel.”
