II Oihanaalii 2
1 OLELO mai o Solomona e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova, a i hale hoi no kona aupuni.
Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the Name of the LORD and a royal palace for himself.
2 Helu iho la o Solomona i na kanaka he kanahiku tausani i poe amo, a me na kanaka he kanawalu tausani i poe kalai ma ke kuahiwi, a hoonoho oia i ekolu tausani kanaka a me na haneri eono i poe luna no lakou.
So he conscripted 70,000 porters, 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 supervisors.
3 Hoouna aku la o Solomona ia Hurama la ke alii o Turo, i aku la, E like me ka mea au i hana'i ia Davida i ko'u makuakane, i kou haawi ana ia ia i ka laau kedera i kukulu ia i hale nona e noho ai;
Then Solomon sent word to Hiram king of Tyre: “Do for me as you did for my father David when you sent him cedars to build himself a house to live in.
4 Aia hoi, e kukulu ana au i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ko'u Akua, e hoolaa ia mea nona, e kuni aku i ka mea ala imua ona, a no ka berena hoike, a me ka mohaikuni i kakahiaka a i ke ahiahi, a i na Sabati, a me na mahina hou, a no na ahaaina o Iehova, ko makou Akua. He mea mau keia i ka Iseraela.
Behold, I am about to build a house for the Name of the LORD my God to dedicate to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him, for displaying the showbread continuously, and for making burnt offerings every morning and evening as well as on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts of the LORD our God. This is ordained for Israel forever.
5 A o ka hale a'u e kukulu nei he hale nui ia, no ka mea, ua nui e aku ko makou Akua mamua o na akua a pau.
The house that I am building will be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
6 Owai la hoi e hiki ke kukulu i hale nona? No ka mea, he uuku ia ia ka lani a me ka lani o na lani. Owai la hoi au i kukulu ai au i hale nona? a i mohai aku hoi i ka mohai imua ona?
But who is able to build a house for Him, since the heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain Him? Who then am I, that I should build a house for Him, except as a place to burn sacrifices before Him?
7 Ano hoi, e hoouna mai oe io'u nei i kanaka akamai i ka hana ma ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me ka lole makue, a me ka lole ulaula, a me ka lole uliuli; he mea ike i ke kalai i ka mea nani me ka poe akamai e noho pu ana me au ma Iuda, a ma Ierusalema, ka poe a Davida ko'u makua i hoomakaukau ai.
Send me, therefore, a craftsman skilled in engraving to work with gold and silver, with bronze and iron, and with purple, crimson, and blue yarn. He will work with my craftsmen in Judah and Jerusalem, whom my father David provided.
8 E haawi mai oe ia'u i na laau kedera, a me ka paina, a me ke aleguma noloko mai o Lebanona, no ka mea, ua ike au he poe akamai kau poe kauwa i ke kalai ana i na laau o Lebanona; aia hoi, o ka'u poe kauwa me kau,
Send me also cedar, cypress, and algum logs from Lebanon, for I know that your servants have skill to cut timber there. And indeed, my servants will work with yours
9 I hoomakaukau lakou no'u i na laau he nui; no ka mea, o ka hale a'u e kukulu ai, he mea e kona nui.
to prepare for me timber in abundance, because the temple I am building will be great and wonderful.
10 Aia hoi, e haawi aku au i kau poe kauwa, i ka poe kua laau, a me ka poe kalai laau, i na kora palaoa i hehiia, he iwakalua tausani, a me na kora bale he iwakalua tausani, a me na bato waina, he iwakalua tausani, a me na bato aila he iwakalua tausani.
I will pay your servants, the woodcutters, 20,000 cors of ground wheat, 20,000 cors of barley, 20,000 baths of wine, and 20,000 baths of olive oil.”
11 Olelo mai o Hurama, ke alii o Turo, ma ka palapala ana, a hoouka mai io Solomona la, peneiia, No ke aloha o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, hoolilo mai oia ia oe i alii no lakou.
Then Hiram king of Tyre wrote a letter in reply to Solomon: “Because the LORD loves His people, He has set you over them as king.”
12 Olelo mai hoi o Hurama, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i hana ka lani a me ka honua, no kona haawi ana mai ia Davida i ke alii i keiki naauao, ike a akamai, i kukulu ia i hale no Iehova, a i hale hoi no kona aupuni.
And Hiram added: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth! He has given King David a wise son with insight and understanding, who will build a temple for the LORD and a royal palace for himself.
13 Ano, hoouna aku au i ke kanaka naauao, a me ka ike, a me ke akamai, no Hurama ko'u makuakane.
So now I am sending you Huram-abi, a skillful man endowed with creativity.
14 He keiki ia a kekahi wahine no na kaikamahine a Dana, a o kona makuakane he kanaka ia no Turo. Ua ike ia i ka hana ma ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me na pohaku, a me na laau, a me ka lole makue, me ka lole uliuli, a me ka pulupulu a me ka lole ulaula, ka mea ike i ke kalai i na mea nani, a i ka noonoo i na mea hohonu i haawiia mai nana, me kau poe akamai, a me na kanaka akamai o kuu haku, o Davida, kou makuakane.
He is the son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, and his father is a man of Tyre. He is skilled in work with gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple, blue, and crimson yarn, and fine linen. He is experienced in every kind of engraving and can execute any design that is given him. He will work with your craftsmen and with those of my lord, your father David.
15 Ano, e haawi mai oe na kau mau kauwa, i ka palaoa, a me ka bale a me ka aila, a me ka waina, i ka mea a kuu haku i olelo mai ai.
Now let my lord send to his servants the wheat, barley, olive oil, and wine he promised.
16 A e kalai makou i na laau mawaena o Lebanona e like me kou makemake, a e hoauia'ku ia iou la ma na holopapa a hiki i ke awa o lopa, a nau no e lawe aku ia i Ierusalema.
We will cut logs from Lebanon, as many as you need, and we will float them to you as rafts by sea down to Joppa. Then you can take them up to Jerusalem.”
17 A helu o Solomona i na kanaka malihini a pau loa ma ka aina o Iseraela, e like me ka helu ana a Davida a kona makuakane i helu ai; a ua loaa ia ia hookahi haneri a me kanalima tausani, a me na tausani ekolu, a me na haneri eono.
Solomon numbered all the foreign men in the land of Israel following the census his father David had conducted, and there were found to be 153,600 in all.
18 A hoonoho iho ia i kanahiku tausani i poe amo, a i kanawalu tausani i poe kalai ma ka mauna, a i ekolu tausani, a me na haneri eono i poe luna e haawi i ka hana na ka poe kanaka.
Solomon made 70,000 of them porters, 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 supervisors.
