1 Kings 5
1 Also Hiram, kyng of Tire, sente hise seruauntis to Salomon; for he herde that thei hadden anoyntide hym kyng for his fadir; for Hiram was frend of Dauid in al time.
Na Tirohene Huram yɛ ɔhene Dawid adamfo nokwafo, enti bere a ɔtee sɛ wɔasra Salomo ngo sɛ ɔhene sɛ onni nʼagya Dawid ade no, ɔsomaa nʼasomafo kɔɔ Salomo nkyɛn, kɔmaa no tirinkwa.
2 Sotheli also Salomon sente to Hiram,
Salomo de saa nkra yi maa sɛ wɔnsan mfa nkɔma Huram:
3 and seide, Thou knowist the wille of Dauid, my fadir, and for he miyte not bilde an hows to the name of his God, for batels neiyynge bi cumpas, til the Lord yaf hem vndur the step of hise feet.
“Wo ara wunim sɛ mʼagya Dawid antumi ansi asɔredan anhyɛ Awurade ne Nyankopɔn din anuonyam, esiane akokoakoko a ɔne aman a wɔatwa ne ho ahyia no dii nti. Wantumi anyɛ kosii sɛ Awurade de nʼatamfo hyɛɛ nʼanan ase.
4 Now forsothe my Lord God yaf reste to me bi cumpas, and noon aduersarie is, nethir yuel asailyng;
Nanso mprempren, Awurade, me Nyankopɔn ama me ahotɔ wɔ afa nyinaa, minni ɔtamfo biara na biribiara rekɔ yiye.
5 wherfor Y thenke to buylde a temple to the name of my Lord God, as God spak to Dauid, my fadir, and seide, Thi sone, whom Y schal yyue to thee for thee on thi trone, he schal bilde an hows to my name.
Ne saa nti, mayɛ adwene sɛ mesi asɔredan ama Awurade, me Nyankopɔn sɛnea Awurade ka kyerɛɛ mʼagya Dawid se me na mɛyɛ no. ‘Wo ba a mede no bɛtena ahengua so, asi wʼanan mu no besi asɔredan ahyɛ me din anuonyam.’
6 Therfor comaunde thou, that thi seruauntis hewe doun to me cedris of the Liban; and my seruauntis be with thi seruauntis; sotheli Y schal yyue to thee the meede of thi seruauntis, what euere meede thou schalt axe; for thou woost, that in my puple is not a man that kan hewe trees, as Sidonyes kunnen.
“Ɛno nti, hyɛ ma wonkotwa sida a efi Lebanon mmrɛ me. Me mmarima ne wo mmarima bɛyɛ adwuma, na akatua biara a wubegye ama wɔn no, metua. Wo ara wunim sɛ, obiara nkyɛn Sidonfo wɔ nnuabu mu.”
7 Therfor whanne Hiram hadde herde the wordis of Salomon, he was ful glad, and seide, Blessid be the Lord God to dai, that yaf to Dauid a sone moost wijs on this puple ful myche.
Bere a Huram tee Salomo nkra no, nʼani sɔɔ yiye kae se, “Ayeyi nka Awurade nnɛ, efisɛ wama Dawid ɔba nyansafo sɛ ommedi saa ɔman kɛse Israel yi so.”
8 And Hiram sente to Salomon, and seide, Y haue herde what euer thingis thou sentist to me; Y schal do al thi wille, in trees of cedres, and of beechis.
Enti Huram de nkra kɔmaa Salomo se, “Me nsa aka nkra a wode brɛɛ me no, na mɛyɛ wʼabisade a ɛfa nnua no ho no. Metumi de sida nnua ne ɔpepaw nnua abrɛ wo.
9 My seruauntis schulen putte doun tho trees fro the Liban to the see, and Y schal araye tho trees in schippis in the see, `til to the place which thou schalt signyfie to me; and Y schal dresse tho there, that thou take tho; and thou schalt yyue necessaries to me, that mete be youun to myn hows.
Mʼasomfo de nnua no befi Lebanon mmepɔw so aba Po Kɛse so, na mɛma atentɛn afa po ani sɛnea wɔde ayɛ ɔkorow no, de akɔ baabiara a wobɛkyerɛ. Ɛno akyi no, yɛbɛsan mu na yɛde nnua no abrɛ wo. Wobɛma me fifo aduan, sɛnea mehwehwɛ no.”
10 Therfor Hiram yaf to Salomon `trees of cedres, and `trees of beechis, bi al his wille;
Huram faa saa ɔkwan yi so maa Salomo sida ne ɔpepaw nnua sɛnea ɔpɛ,
11 forsothe Salomon yaf to Hiram twenti thousynde chorus of wheete, in to meete to his hows, and twenti chorus of pureste oile; Salomon yaf these thingis to Hiram bi alle yeeris.
na Salomo maa Huram fifo atoko tɔn 3,600 ne ngo kronkron galɔn 120,000.
12 Also the Lord yaf wisdom to Salomon, as he spak to hym; and pees was bitwixe Hiram and Salomon, and bothe smytiden boond of pees.
Na Awurade maa Salomo nyansa a emu dɔ, sɛnea ɔhyɛɛ no bɔ no. Na Huram ne Salomo yɛɛ asomdwoe apam.
13 And kyng Salomon chees werk men of al Israel; and the summe was thretti thousynde of men.
Na ɔhene Salomo kyerɛw adwumayɛfo mpem aduasa a wofi Israel nyinaa din.
14 And `Salomon sente hem in to the Liban, ten thousynde bi ech monethe bi whilis, so that in twei monethis bi whilis thei weren in her howsis; and Adonyram was on sich a summe.
Ɔsomaa wɔn akuwakuw kɔɔ Lebanon. Ɔsram biara mu, nnipa mpem du kɔ, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔbarima baako biara bedi ɔsram baako wɔ Lebanon, na wadi asram abien wɔ fie. Adoniram na na ɔhwɛ saa adwumayɛfo yi so.
15 Therfor seuenti thousynde of hem, that baren burthuns, weren to Salomon, and foure score thousynde of masouns in the hil, with out the souereyns,
Salomo nso faa nnesoasoafo mpem aduɔson; faa abopaefo mpem aduɔwɔtwe fi bepɔw asase no so,
16 that weren maistris of alle werkis, bi the noumbre of thre thousynde and thre hundrid, comaundynge to the puple, and to hem that maden werk.
ne wɔn so sohwɛfo mpem ahaasa ne ahansia a wɔbɛhwɛ adwuma no so.
17 And the kyng comaundide, that thei schulden take greete stonys, `and preciouse stonys, in to the foundement of the temple, and that thei schulden make tho square;
Ɔhene no hyɛ ma abotwafo no paee, twaa aboɔdemmo no, yiyii ho sɛnea wɔde bɛhyɛ Asɔredan no fapem.
18 whiche stoonys the masouns of Salomon, and the masouns of Hyram, hewiden. Forsothe Biblies maden redi trees and stonus, to the hows to be bildid.
Mmarima a wofi Gebal kuropɔn mu boaa Salomo ne Huram adansifo no, ma wosiesiee nnua ne abo no maa Asɔredan no si.
