< 1 Kings 9 >
1 After Solomon’s [workers] had finished building the temple and his palace and everything else that Solomon wanted them to build,
Ary rehefa vitan’ i Solomona ny nanaovany ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka araka izay rehetra efa niriny hatao,
2 Yahweh appeared to him [in a dream] a second time, like he had appeared to him at [the city of] Gibeon.
dia niseho tamin’ i Solomona indray Jehovah tahaka ilay nisehoany taminy tao Gibeona.
3 Yahweh said to him, “I heard what you prayed and what you pleaded for me to do. I have set apart/dedicated this temple which your [workers] have built to be the place where people will worship me forever. I will always watch over it and protect it.
Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Efa reko ny vavakao sy ny fifonanao izay nataonao teo anatrehako; koa efa nohamasiniko ity trano nataonao ity mba hampitoerana ny anarako mandrakizay: ary ho amin’ ity mandrakariva ny masoko sy ny foko.
4 “And as for you, if you conduct your life as I want you to, like your father David did, and if you very sincerely obey all the statutes and laws that I have commanded you to obey,
Ary raha ianao handeha eo anatrehako tahaka ny nandehanan’ i Davida rainao tamin’ ny fahitsian’ ny fo sy ny fahamarinana ka hanao araka izay rehetra nandidiako anao ary hitandrina ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko,
5 I will do what I promised your father that I would do: I promised him that Israel would always be ruled by his descendants.
dia hampitoeriko mandrakizay amin’ ny Isiraely ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakanao, araka ilay nolazaiko tamin’ i Davida rainao hoe: Tsy ho diso zanakalahy amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely ianao.
6 “But if you or your descendants turn away from me and disobey the commands and decrees that I have given to you, and if you start to worship other gods,
Fa raha miala amin’ ny fanarahana Ahy kosa ianareo na ny zanakareo ka tsy mitandrina ny lalàko sy ny didiko, izay nataoko teo anoloanareo, fa mandeha manompo andriamani-kafa sy miankohoka eo anatrehany,
7 I will remove my Israeli people from the land that I have given to them. I will also abandon this temple that I have set apart/dedicated to be the place where people should worship me. Then people everywhere will despise [the people of] Israel and make fun of them.
dia hofongorako tsy ho amin’ ny tany izay nomeko azy ny Isiraely; ary ity trano izay nohamasiniko ho an’ ny anarako ity dia hofongorako tsy ho eo imasoko; ary ny Isiraely ho tonga ohabolana sy ambentinteny any amin’ ny firenena rehetra;
8 This temple will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by will be astonished [when they see it], and they will be shocked and say, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this temple?’
ary na dia avo aza ity trano ity, dia mbola hitalanjonan’ izay rehetra mandalo izy sady hisitrisirany ka hanaovany hoe: Naninona re no dia nataon’ i Jehovah toy izao ity tany sy ity trano ity?
9 And other people will reply, ‘It happened because the Israeli people abandoned Yahweh their God, the one who brought their ancestors out of Egypt. They started to accept and worship other gods. And that is why Yahweh has caused them to experience all these disasters.’”
Ary hisy hamaly hoe: Satria ny olona nahafoy an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny, Izay nitondra ny razany nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ary nikikitra tamin’ andriamani-kafa sy niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanompo azy, dia izany no nampidiran’ i Jehovah izao loza rehetra izao taminy.
10 Solomon’s [workers] labored for 20 years to build the temple and the palace.
Ary nony afaka ny roa-polo taona nanaovan’ i Solomona ny trano roa, dia ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka
11 Hiram, the king of Tyre had [arranged for his workers to] give Solomon all the cedar and pine [logs] and all the gold that he needed [for this work]. After it was all finished, King Solomon gave to Hiram 20 cities in the Galilee region.
(Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, nanome an’ i Solomona hazo sedera sy hazo kypreso ary volamena, araka izay rehetra niriny), dia nomen’ i Solomona tanàna roa-polo tany amin’ ny tany Galilia kosa Hirama.
12 But when Hiram went from Tyre [to Galilee] to see the cities that Solomon had given to him, he was not pleased with them.
Ary Hirama niala tany Tyro hizaha ny tanàna izay nomen’ i Solomona azy, ka tsy tiany ireny.
13 He said to Solomon, “My friend, those cities that you gave me are worthless!” So, that area is still called ‘Worthless’.
Dia hoy izy: Hatao inona ireo tanàna nomenao ahy ireo, ry rahalahiko? Ary ireny dia natao hoe tany Kobola mandraka androany.
14 Hiram paid Solomon only five tons of gold [for those cities].
Ary Hirama nampanatitra talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato ho an’ ny mpanjaka.
15 This is a record of the work that King Solomon forced men to do. He forced them to build the temple and his palace and the terraces/landfills [on the east side of the city], and the wall around Jerusalem, and [to rebuild the cities of] Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer.
Ary izao no toetry ny fanompoana nampanaovin’ i Solomona mpanjaka ny olona, tamin’ ny nanaovany ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana ary Milo sy ny màndan’ i Jerosalema, sy Hazora sy Megido ary Gazera
16 [The reason they needed to rebuild Gezer was that the army of] the king of Egypt had attacked Gezer and captured it. Then they had burned [the houses in] the city and killed all the people of the Canaan people-group who lived there. The king of Egypt gave that city to his daughter as a gift when she married Solomon.
(fa Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, efa niakatra, dia nahafaka an’ i Gazera ka nandoro azy tamin’ ny afo; ary ny Kananita izay nitoetra tao an-tanàna dia novonoiny, ary ny tanàna dia nomeny ho haren-jazavavy ho an’ ny zananivavy, vadin’ i Solomona),
17 So Solomon’s workers also rebuilt Gezer, and they also rebuilt Lower Beth-Horon [city].
ary, Solomona nanamboatra an’ i Gazera sy Beti-horona ambany
18 They also rebuilt Baalath and Tamar [towns] in the desert in [the southern part of] Judah.
sy Baleta sy Tadmora any an-efitra, amin’ ny tany Samata,
19 They also built cities where they kept the supplies for Solomon, the places where his horses and chariots were kept. They also built everything else that Solomon wanted them to build, in Jerusalem and in Lebanon, and in other places in the area over which he ruled.
ary ny tanàna fitehirizana rehetra izay nananan’ i Solomona sy ny tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy sy ny tanàna fitoeran’ ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly sy izay tian’ i Solomona haorina tany Jerosalema sy tany Libanona ary tany amin’ ny tany nanjakany rehetra.
20 There were many people who belonged to the Amor people-group, the Heth people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group who were not killed when the Israelis captured their land.
Ary ny olona sisa rehetra tamin’ ny Amorita sy ny Hetita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita, izay tsy isan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely,
21 [Their descendants still lived in Israel]. It was those people whom Solomon forced to become his slaves [to build all those places], and they are still slaves.
dia ny taranany izay sisa nandimby azy teo amin’ ny tany, izay tsy azon’ ny Isiraely naringana avokoa, no nampanaovin’ i Solomona fanompoana mandraka androany.
22 But Solomon did not force any Israeli people to become slaves. Some Israelis became soldiers and army officers and commanders and drivers of his chariots and soldiers who rode on horses.
Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia tsy mba nampanaovin’ i Solomona izany; fa izy kosa no miaramila sy mpanompony sy komandy sy mpanafika malaza sy komandin’ ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny.
23 There were 550 officials who supervised the slaves who worked [to build all those places].
Izao no isan’ ny mpifehy ny olona voatendry izay nitandrina ny asan’ i Solomona: dimam-polo amby dimam-jato lahy no mpifehy ny mpiasa.
24 After [Solomon’s wife, who was] the daughter of the king of Egypt, moved from [the place outside Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’ to the palace that Solomon’s workers built for her, Solomon [told his workers to] fill in the slopes on the east side of the city.
Ary rehefa niakatra avy any an-Tanànan’ i Davida ny zanakavavin’ i Farao hankany amin’ ny tranony izay nataon’ i Solomona ho azy, dia nanao an’ i Milo koa izy.
25 Three times each year Solomon [brought to the temple] offerings that were completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to restore fellowship with Yahweh. He also brought incense to be burned in the presence of Yahweh. And so his men finished building the temple.
Ary intelo isan-taona no nanateran’ i Solomona fanatitra dorana sy fanati-pihavanana teo ambonin’ ny alitara izay naoriny ho an’ i Jehovah, sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy. Ka toy izany no nahavitany ny trano.
26 King Solomon’s [workers] also built a fleet of ships at Ezion-Geber [city], which is near Elath [city], on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba, in the land belonging to the Edom people-group.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao sambo tao Ezion-gebera, izay ao anilan’ i Elota, ao amoron’ ny Ranomasina Mena, amin’ ny tany Edoma.
27 [King] Hiram sent some very expert sailors to work on the ships with Solomon’s workers.
Ary Hirama nampandeha ny vahoakany tamin’ ny sambo, dia matilô izay nahay ranomasina, hiaraka amin’ ny vahoakan’ i Solomona.
28 They sailed to [the] Ophir [region] and brought back to Solomon about 16 tons of gold.
Ary nankany Ofira ireo, dia naka talenta volamena roa-polo amby efa-jato, ka nentiny tany amin’ i Solomona mpanjaka izany.
