< 1 Kings 5 >
1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.
टुरोसका राजा हीरामले सोलोमनकहाँ आफ्ना सेवकहरू पठाए किनकि आफ्नो पिताको सट्टामा सोलोमन राजा अभिषेक गरिएका थिए भनी तिनले सुनेका थिए । हीरामले दाऊदलाई सधैँ माया गर्थे ।
2 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
सोलोमनले यसो भन्दै हीरामलाई वचन पठाए,
3 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build a house to the name of the LORD his God, for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.
“मेरा पिता दाऊद युद्धले घेरिएकाले परमप्रभु उहाँका परमेश्वरको नाउँमा उहाँले मन्दिर बनाउन सक्नुभएन भनी तपाईंलाई थाहै छ । उहाँको जीवनभर परमप्रभुले उहाँका शत्रुहरूलाई उहाँको खुट्टाको पैतालामुनि ल्याउनुभयो ।
4 But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.
तर अहिले परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वरले मलाई हरेक क्षेत्रमा विश्राम दिनुभएको छ ।
5 And behold, I purpose to build a house to the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spoke to David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build a house to my name.
त्यसैले परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वरको नाउँमा एउटा मन्दिर बनाउने मेरो इच्छा छ जस्तो परमप्रभुले मेरा पिता दाऊदलाई यसो भन्नुभएको थियो, 'म तेरो छोरोलाई तेरो सिंहासनमा बसाउने छु, र त्यसले नै मेरो नाउँमा मन्दिर बनाउने छ ।'
6 Now therefore command thou, that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and to thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that [there is] not among us any that is skilled in hewing timber like the Sidonians.
त्यसकारण, अब तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निम्ति देवदारुका रुखहरू काट्न आज्ञा दिनुहोस् । मेरा दासहरू तपाईंका दासहरूसित मिल्ने छन्, र तपाईंले तोक्नुभएको ज्याला म तिनीहरूलाई दिने छु । किनकि तपाईंलाई थाहा छ, कि सीदोनीहरूजस्तै रुख ढाल्ने सिपालु मानिसहरू हाम्रा बिचमा कोही छैन ।”
7 And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] the LORD this day, who hath given to David a wise son over this great people.
हीरामले सोलोमनको कुरा सुनेपछि तिनी अत्यन्तै खुसी भए र भने, “आज परमप्रभु धन्यका होऊन् जसले दाऊदलाई आफ्ना जातिको रेखदेख गर्न एउटा बुद्धिमान् छोरा दिनुभएको छ ।
8 And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: [and] I will perform all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
हीरामले सोलोमनलाई यस्तो वचन पठाए, “तपाईंले मलाई पठाउनुभएको सन्देश मैले सुनेको छु । म तपाईंले चाहना गर्नुभएका सबै देवदारु र सल्लाका काठ जुटाइदिने छु ।
9 My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon to the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats to the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive [them]: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.
मेरा दासहरूले लेबनानबाट समुद्रसम्म मूढाहरू ल्याउने छन्, र ती बाँधेर तपाईंले तोक्नुभएको ठाउँमा म बगाएर पठाउन लगाउने छु । म त्यहाँ खोल्न लगाउने छु, र तपाईंले ती लैजान सक्नुहुने छ । मेरो घरानालाई भोजन जुटाइदिएर तपाईंले चाहनुभएको कुरा पुरा गर्नुहोस् ।”
10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees [according to] all his desire.
त्यसैले सोलोमनले चाहेका सबै देवदारु र सल्लाका मूढा हीरामले तिनलाई दिए ।
11 And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat [for] food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.
सोलोमनले हीरामको घरानालाई भोजनको निम्ति पचास हजार मुरी गहुँ र साढे चार हजार लिटर शुद्ध तेल दिए । सोलोमनले यो वर्षैपिच्छे हीरामलाई दिन्थे ।
12 And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
आफूले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ परमप्रभुले सोलोमनलाई बुद्धि दिनुभयो । सोलोमन र हीरामको बिचमा शान्ति कायम थियो, र तिनीहरू दुई जनाले एउटा करार बाँधे ।
13 And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
सोलोमन राजाले सारा इस्राएलबाट तिस हजार बेगार काम गर्ने मानिस जम्मा गरे ।
14 And 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 levy.
तिनले तिनीहरूलाई हरेक महिना दस-दस हजार गरी लेबनानमा पठाए । तिनीहरू एक महिना लेबनानमा बस्थे र दुई महिना घरमा बस्थे । अदोनिराम बेगार काम गर्नेहरूका जिम्मावाल थिए ।
15 And Solomon had seventy thousand that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers in the mountains;
सोलोमनका सत्तरी हजरा भरिया र पहाडमा असी हजार ढुङ्गा काट्ने मानिस थिए ।
16 Besides the chief of Solomon's officers who [were] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
मजदुरहरूका कामको रेखदेख गर्न खटिएका तिन हजार तिन सय नाइके थिए ।
17 And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.
राजाको आज्ञामा तिनीहरूले मन्दिरको जगको निम्ति उच्च गुणस्तरका ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू फोरेर निकाले ।
18 And Solomon's builders, and Hiram's builders did hew [them], and the stone-squarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
त्यसैले सोलोमन र हीरामका कारीगरहरूसाथै गेबालका मानिसहरूले मन्दिर निर्माणको निम्ति काठ र ढुङ्गाहरू काटेर तयार पारे ।
