1 Sarakuna 5
1 Sa’ad da Hiram sarkin Taya ya ji an shafe Solomon sarki yă gāji mahaifinsa Dawuda, sai ya aika da jakadunsa zuwa wurin Solomon, gama shi da Dawuda abokai ne sosai dukan kwanakinsa.
And Hiram King of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon, for he had heard that, him, had they anointed king, in the room of his father, —for, Hiram, was, a lover, of, David continually.
2 Solomon ya mayar da wannan saƙo ga Hiram ya ce,
So Solomon sent unto Hiram, saying: —
3 “Ka san cewa saboda yaƙe-yaƙen da abokan gāba suka yi da mahaifina a kowane gefe, ya sa bai iya gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji Allahnsa ba, sai da Ubangiji ya sa abokan gābansa a ƙarƙashin ƙafafunsa.
Thou, knewest David my father, how that he could not build a house unto the Name of Yahweh his God, because of the wars that were about him on every side, —until Yahweh should put them under the soles of his feet;
4 Amma yanzu Ubangiji Allahna ya ba ni hutu a kowane gefe, babu kuma gāba ko masifa.
but, now, Yahweh my God hath given me rest on every side, —there is neither adversary nor incident of evil.
5 Ina niyya in gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji Allahna, yadda Ubangiji ya faɗa wa mahaifina Dawuda, sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ɗanka wanda zai gāje ka, shi zai gina haikali domin Sunana.’
Behold me! then, purposing to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God—even as Yahweh spake unto David my father, saying—Thy son, whom I will set in thy stead, upon thy throne, he, shall build the house for my Name.
6 “Don haka, ka ba da umarni a yanka mini itatuwan al’ul na ƙasar Lebanon. Ma’aikatana za su haɗa hannu da ma’aikatanka, ni kuwa zan biya ka albashin ma’aikatanka kamar yadda ka faɗa. Gama ka san cewa babu wani a cikinmu da ya iya yanka itacen katako kamar Sidoniyawa.”
Now, therefore, command thou that they fell me cedars, out of Lebanon, and, my servants, shall be, with thy servants, and, the hire of thy servants, will I give thee, according to all that thou shalt say, —for, thou, knowest, that, none amongst us, hath skill to fell timber, like the Zidonians.
7 Da Hiram ya ji saƙon Solomon, sai ya ji daɗi ƙwarai, ya kuma ce, “Yabo ga Ubangiji a yau, gama ya ba wa Dawuda ɗa mai hikima yă yi mulki a bisa wannan al’umma mai girma.”
And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, —and said: Blessed, be Yahweh, to-day, who hath given unto David a wise son, over this great people!
8 Sai Hiram ya aike wa Solomon da kalmomin nan, “Na sami saƙon da ka aika mini, zan kuma yi duk abin da kake so ta wurin tanada katakan al’ul da na fir.
And Hiram sent unto Solomon, saying, I have heard that which thou hast sent unto me, —I, will do all thy desire, as to timber of cedar, and timber of fir.
9 Ma’aikatana za su gangara da su daga Lebanon zuwa bakin teku. Zan sa a ɗaɗɗaura su su bi ruwan teku daga Lebanon zuwa bakin Bahar Rum da za ka nuna mini. A can zan kunce maka su, sa’an nan ka kwashe. Kai kuma za ka biya bukatata ta wurin tanadin abinci wa gidana.”
My servants, shall bring them down out of Lebanon unto the sea, and, I, will put them in rafts on the sea, unto the place of which thou shalt send me word, and will cause them to be discharged there, and, thou, shalt receive them, and, thou, shalt do my desire, by giving food for my household.
10 A haka Hiram ya ci gaba da aika wa Solomon al’ul da kuma fir da yake bukata.
So then Hiram began giving unto Solomon timber of cedar, and timber of fir, even all his desire,
11 Solomon kuma ya ba wa Hiram mudu gari dubu ashirin na alkama a matsayin abinci domin gidansa, ya ƙara da garwa dubu ashirin na tataccen man zaitun. Solomon ya ci gaba da yin haka ga Hiram, shekara-shekara.
and, Solomon, gave unto Hiram, twenty thousand measures of wheat, as food for his household, and twenty measures of beaten oil, —thus, used Solomon on to give unto Hiram, year by year.
12 Ubangiji ya ba wa Solomon hikima, kamar yadda ya yi masa alkawari. Dangantakar zaman lafiya ta kasance tsakanin Hiram da Solomon, su biyun suka yi yarjejjeniya.
And, Yahweh, gave wisdom unto Solomon, as he promised him, —and it came to pass that there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and, they two, solemnised a covenant.
13 Sarki Solomon ya ɗebi ma’aikata daga dukan Isra’ila, su dubu talatin.
And King Solomon raised a labour-band, out of all Israel, —and it came to pass that, the labour-band, was thirty thousand men.
14 Ya riƙa aika su dubu goma-goma zuwa Lebanon kowane wata, saboda su yi wata ɗaya a Lebanon, watanni biyu kuma a gida. Adoniram ne ya lura da aikin gandun.
And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by courses, a month, were they in Lebanon, two months, at home, —and, Adoniram, was over the levy.
15 Solomon ya kasance da’yan ɗauko guda dubu saba’in da masu yankan duwatsu guda dubu tamanin a cikin tuddai,
And it came to pass that, Solomon, had seventy thousand bearers of burdens, —and eighty thousand hewers in the mountain;
16 ya kuma kasance da shugabanni dubu uku da ɗari uku waɗanda suke lura da aikin, su ne kuma suke bi da ma’aikatan.
besides the chiefs of Solomon’s officers, who were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, —who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
17 Bisa ga umarnin sarki sai suka cire manyan duwatsu masu kyau don a tanada tushen duwatsun da aka gyara domin haikalin daga wurin haƙar duwatsun.
And the king commanded, and they quarried great stones, costly stones, to found the house with hewn stones.
18 Gwanayen Solomon da na Hiram da kuma mutanen Gebal, su suka yanka, suka kuma shirya katako da dutse don ginin haikali.
And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders with the Gebalites wrought them, —thus made they ready the timber and the stones, for building the house.
