< 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, and Hiram had always loved David.
Tyre Lengpa Hiram hi David dinga gol phatah ana hi jing’a ahi. David chapa Solomon chu Israelte Leng ahitai ti ahet phat in palai asol in a kipapina thu chu aga lhutsah in ahi.
2 Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
Hichun Hiram kom ah Solomon in thu a lethot in ahi.
3 “You know that David my father could not build a house for the name of Yahweh his God because of the wars which were around him on every side, until Yahweh put his enemies under the soles of his feet.
“Kapa David chun a Pakai a Pathen min dopsang na dinga ahou in tundoh ding chu ana jou tapoi, ajeh chu aman avel’a galmite hotoh gal kisatto na a ana kimang chan ahi. Pathen in amahi galmite ajo sah soh kahse’a houin ana sah joulou ahi.
4 But now Yahweh my God has given me rest on every side. There is no enemy and no evil occurrence.
Tunvang ka Pakai ka Pathen in gamsung pumpia hin chamna eipe tan, tuhin galmi kanei tapon eihin suboi ding jong kanei tapon ahi.
5 Behold, I intend to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God, as Yahweh spoke to David my father, saying, ‘Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place shall build the house for my name.’
Pakaiyin kapa David kom ah nangma banna Leng’a ka hin tun ding na chapa chun kei dinga houin eihin sahpeh ding ahi tin kitepna ana neijin ahi. Hijeh chun Pakai ka Pathen houin a ding’a houin khat sah dingin lunggel lhuhna kanei tan ahi.
6 Now therefore command that cedar trees be cut for me out of Lebanon. My servants will be with your servants; and I will give you wages for your servants according to all that you say. For you know that there is nobody among us who knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.”
Hijeh chun Lebanon ah kei dinga Cedar thing eihung phuh peh dingin namite hinsol in lang kamiten jong ama hochu tohkhom piuvintin chuleh nangma dei dung jui jin a tohman’u pe nang’e. Ajeh chu nami ten thing phuh ji ahet bang un keima miten ahe pouve ti na hetsa ahi,” atin ahi.
7 When Hiram heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced greatly, and said, “Blessed is Yahweh today, who has given to David a wise son to rule over this great people.”
Solomon thuthot chu ajah phat in Hiram chu a kipah lheh jengin, hitin aseiye: “Hitobang nam thupitah chung’a ama banna Leng chang dinga David chapa ching tah hinpe’a Pakai chu thangvah in umhen!”
8 Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, “I have heard the message which you have sent to me. I will do all your desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning cypress timber.
Hichun Hiram in Solomon chu thu athot in, “Nahin thuthot chu kana mu’n na ngaichat bang’a na dei bol ding’a kigosa kahi. Keiman Cedar thingle chahthing ho kahin peh ding ahi.
9 My servants will bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. I will make them into rafts to go by sea to the place that you specify to me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and you will receive them. You will accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.”
Kamiten thingbong hochu Lebanon apat twikhanglen geijin hin tolsuh untin chuleh alom in hin kan gom untin nang in na dei nalai tui panga chu ahin tol suh diu ahi, chujouteng ka miten lhamlha untin chuleh na mite khut a ahin pohlut ding’u ahi. Chuteng leh ka mite neh ding nahin peh ding kadeije,” ati.
10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar timber and cypress timber according to all his desire.
Hiti chun Hiram in Solomon chu Cedar leh chahthing a ngaichat chan ahin pen ahi.
11 Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat for food to his household, and twenty cors of pure oil. Solomon gave this to Hiram year by year.
Chuleh Solomonin Hiram mite neh dingin suhlou chang atena dim sang somni leh thaotwi ki hehlhasa atena dim sang somni apen ahi. Solomon in thil hijat hi kum seh a Hiram apeh jing ahi.
12 Yahweh gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him. There was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty together.
Pakaiyin akitepna bang bang in Solomon chu chihna apen, Solomon leh Hiram kah ajong chamlen jingna dingin pankhom jing na dingin kigahna anasem lhonin ahi.
13 King Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
Solomon in Israel mipi jouse lah a konin mi sang somthum namna a natong dingin ana goijin hiche ho chungchang ahin, Adoniram thanei na ana pen ahi.
14 He sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: for a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home; and Adoniram was over the men subject to forced labor.
Ama ho hi sangsom somin Lebanon langa asol jin, lhakhat sungin Lebanon a na agatong jiuvin ahi. Chujouteng lhani sung chu in’a ahung kicholdo jiuvin ahi. Hichea soh na tongho vesui dingin Adoniram ana pansah in ahi.
15 Solomon had seventy thousand who bore burdens, and eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains,
Solomon in thinglhang gamsung’a jong thilgih pole dingin mihem sang somsagi; song kheng them jong mihem sang somget aneiye.
16 besides Solomon’s chief officers who were over the work: three thousand three hundred who ruled over the people who labored in the work.
Natong ho vesui dingin lamkai sangthum leh jathum ana pansah in ahi.
17 The king commanded, and they cut out large stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with worked stone.
Lengpa thupeh dungjuijin songlentah tahle song guntah tah hochu akheng toh-un Houin bul kitun dohna a dingin ana mang un ahi.
18 Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders and the Gebalites cut them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
Gebal khopi miten Solomon akithopi uvin chuleh Hiram in sathem hon Houin songle thing ding agon peh un ahi.
