I Na Lii 5
1 HOOUNA mai la o Hirama ke alii o Turo i kaua mau kauwa io Solomona la, no ka mea, ua lohe oia i ko lakou poni ana ia ia i alii ma ka hakahaka o kona makuakane; no ka mea, he hoaaloha mau o Hirama no Davida.
Now when Hiram king of Tyre heard that Solomon had been anointed king in his father’s place, he sent envoys to Solomon; for Hiram had always been a friend of David.
2 Hoouna aku la hoi o Solomona io Hirama la, i aku la,
And Solomon relayed this message to Hiram:
3 Ua ike no oe i ko'u makuakane ia Davida aole i hiki ia ia ke kukulu i ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova kona Akua, no ua kaua e puni ana ia ia ma na aoao a pau, a hiki i ka manawa i waiho iho ai ke Akua ia lakou malalo ae o kona mau kapuwai
“As you are well aware, due to the wars waged on all sides against my father David, he could not build a house for the Name of the LORD his God until the LORD had put his enemies under his feet.
4 Aka, ano la, ua haawi mai nei Iehova ko'u Akua i ka maha a puni, i ole he mea ku e, aole hoi mea e popilikia ai.
But now the LORD my God has given me rest on every side, and there is no adversary or crisis.
5 Eia no hoi, ke manao nei au e kukulu i ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova ko'u Akua, mamuli o ka Iehova i olelo mai ai ia Davida ko'u makuakane, i ka i ana mai, O kau keiki au e hoonoho ai maluna o kou nohoalii ma kou wahi, oia ke hana mai i hale no ko'u inoa.
So behold, I plan to build a house for the Name of the LORD my God, according to what the LORD said to my father David: ‘I will put your son on your throne in your place, and he will build the house for My Name.’
6 Ano hoi e kauoha ae oe e kalai lakou i mau laau kedera no'u, mai Lebanona mai; a o ka'u poe kauwa kekahi pu me kau poe kauwa; a e uku aku wau ia oe no kau poe kauwa e like me kau olelo a pau; no ka mea, ua ike oe, aohe mea iwaena o makou e akamai i ke kalai laau e like me ko Sidona.
Now therefore, order that cedars of Lebanon be cut down for me. My servants will be with your servants, and I will pay your servants whatever wages you set, for you know that there are none among us as skilled in logging as the Sidonians.”
7 Eia kekahi, i ka lohe ana o Hirama i na olelo a Solomona, olioli nui ae la ia, i iho la hoi ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova i keia la, ka mea i haawi mai ia Davida i keiki naauao maluna o keia lahuikanaka nui.
When Hiram received Solomon’s message, he rejoiced greatly and said, “Blessed be the LORD this day! He has given David a wise son over this great people!”
8 Hoouna mai la o Hirama io Solomona la, i mai la, Ua noonoo ae nei au i na mea au i kauleo mai ai ia'u; a e hana no wau i kau mea e makemake ai a pau i na laau kedera a me na laau kaa.
Then Hiram sent a reply to Solomon, saying: “I have received your message; I will do all you desire regarding the cedar and cypress timber.
9 E lawe ae ka'u poe kauwa mai Lebanona ae a kahakai; a na'u no e alo aku ia mau mea ma ke kai, ma na huina laau lana, i kahi au i hoomaopopo mai ai, a e hoopae aku au ia lakou malaila, a e lawe ae oe; a e hooko ae i ko'u makemake i ka haawi ana mai i ka ai na ko ka hale o'u.
My servants will haul the logs from Lebanon to the Sea, and I will float them as rafts by sea to the place you specify. There I will separate the logs, and you can take them away. And in exchange, you can meet my needs by providing my household with food.”
10 Pela i haawi mai ai o Hirama i na laau kedera a me na laau kaa e like me kona makemake a pau.
So Hiram provided Solomon with all the cedar and cypress timber he wanted,
11 A haawi aku la o Solomona ia Hirama i na kora hua palaoa he iwakalua tausani i ai na ko kona hale, a me na kora aila maemae he iwakalua. Pela i haawi ai o Solomona ia Hirama i kela makahiki keia makahiki.
and year after year Solomon would provide Hiram with 20,000 cors of wheat as food for his household, as well as 20,000 baths of pure olive oil.
12 Haawi mai la hoi o Iehova i ka naauao ia Solomona e like me kana olelo hoopomaikai ia ia: a he kuikahi like ko Hirama me Solomona, a hana pu iho la laua i berita.
And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as He had promised him. There was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty.
13 A auhau ae la o Solomona ke alii i ka Iseraela a pau, a o ka auhau he kanakolu tausani kanaka.
Then King Solomon conscripted a labor force of 30,000 men from all Israel.
14 Hoouna aku la oia ia lakou i Lebanona he umi tausani i ka malama, ma na papa; hookahi malama i noho ai lakou ma Lebanona, a elua malama i noho ai lakou ma ko lakou mau hale iho; a o Adonirama maluna o keia auhau.
He sent them to Lebanon in monthly shifts of 10,000 men, so that they would spend one month in Lebanon and two months at home. And Adoniram was in charge of the forced labor.
15 Ia Solomona he kanahiku tausani kanaka halihali i na mea hali, a he kanawalu tausani mea kalai ma na kuahiwi.
Solomon had 70,000 porters and 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains,
16 Okoa na luna nui o ko Solomona mau luna, na mea maluna o ka hana, ekolu tausani me na haneri ekolu o na luna i hooponopono i na kanaka e hana ana i ka hana.
not including his 3,300 foremen who supervised the workers.
17 Kauoha mai la ke alii, a lawe mai la lakou i na pohaku nui, na pohaku he nui ke kumukuai, na pohaku kalaiia e hoonoho iho i ke kumu o ka hale.
And the king commanded them to quarry large, costly stones to lay the foundation of the temple with dressed stones.
18 Na ko Solomona poe hanahale, a me ko Hirama poe hanahale i kalai, a me ko Gibela. Pela lakou i hoomakaukau ai i na laau a me na pohaku e hana'ku ai i ka hale.
So Solomon’s and Hiram’s builders, along with the Gebalites, quarried the stone and prepared the timber and stone for the construction of the temple.
