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 decided to build a house for the LORD’s name, and a house for his kingdom.
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.
Solomon counted out seventy thousand men to bear burdens, eighty thousand men who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
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;
Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, “As you dealt with David my father, and sent him cedars to build him a house in which to dwell, so deal with me.
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 it to him, to burn before him incense of sweet spices, for the continual show bread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts of the LORD our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.
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 which 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 him a house, since heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain him? Who am I then, that I should build him a house, except just to burn incense 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.
“Now therefore send me a man skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, and in purple, crimson, and blue, and who knows how to engrave engravings, to be with the skilful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father 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 trees, cypress trees, and algum trees out of Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut timber in Lebanon. Behold, my servants will be with your servants,
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.
even to prepare me timber in abundance; for the house which I am about to build 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.
Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of beaten wheat, twenty thousand baths of barley, twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of 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 Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, “Because the LORD loves his people, he has made you king over them.”
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.
Huram continued, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, who would build a house for the LORD and a house for his kingdom.
13 Ano, hoouna aku au i ke kanaka naauao, a me ka ike, a me ke akamai, no Hurama ko'u makuakane.
Now I have sent a skilful man, endowed with understanding, Huram-abi,
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.
the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre. He is skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, in stone, in timber, in purple, in blue, in fine linen, and in crimson, also to engrave any kind of engraving and to devise any device, that there may be a place appointed to him with your skilful men, and with the skilful men of my lord David your father.
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 therefore, the wheat, the barley, the oil, and the wine which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants;
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.
and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you need. We will bring it to you in rafts by sea to Joppa; then you shall carry it 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 counted all the foreigners who were in Eretz-Israel, after the census with which David his father had counted them; and they found one hundred and fifty-three thousand and six hundred.
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.
He set seventy thousand of them to bear burdens, eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to assign the people their work.
