1 Ndị Eze 5
1 Mgbe Hiram eze Taịa nụrụ na eteela Solomọn mmanụ ịbụ eze nʼọnọdụ nna ya Devid, o zipụrụ ndị ozi ya ijekwuru Solomọn, nʼihi na ya na Devid bụ enyi, dịrịkwa na mma.
And Hiram king of Tyre sends his servants to Solomon, for he heard that they had anointed him for king instead of his father, for Hiram was loving toward David all the days;
2 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn zigara Hiram ozi, sị ya:
and Solomon sends to Hiram, saying,
3 “Ị maara na Devid nna m enweghị ike iwu ụlọnsọ ukwuu nye Aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya, nʼihi agha niile ọ lụrụ mgbe ọ dị ndụ. Ọ nọkwa na-eche ka Onyenwe anyị nye ya udo.
“You have known my father David, that he has not been able to build a house for the Name of his God YHWH, because of the wars that have been all around him, until YHWH’s putting them under the soles of his feet.
4 Ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị Chineke m enyela m udo nʼakụkụ ọbụla. Enwekwaghị m ndị iro, ma ọ bụkwanụ ihe ndakwasị ọjọọ ọbụla.
And now, my God YHWH has given rest to me all around, there is no adversary nor evil occurrence,
5 Nʼihi ya, ana m achọ iwu ụlọnsọ ukwu nye Aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke m, dịka Onyenwe anyị gwara nna m Devid mgbe ọ sịrị ya, ‘Nwa gị nwoke, onye m ga-eme ka ọ nọdụ nʼocheeze gị, ga-ewu ụlọnsọ ukwu nye Aha m.’
and behold, I am saying to build a house for the Name of my God YHWH, as YHWH spoke to my father David, saying, Your son whom I appoint in your stead on your throne, he builds the house for My Name.
6 “Ya mere, nye iwu ka e gbutuoro m osisi sida nke Lebanọn. Ndị ọrụ m ga-esoro ndị nke gị nʼọrụ a. Aga m akwụ gị ihe ọbụla i kpebiri bụ ụgwọ ọrụ ha. Ị maara na anyị enweghị ndị ọka igbutu osisi dịka ndị Saịdọn.”
And now, command, and they cut down cedars for me out of Lebanon, and my servants are with your servants, and I give the hire of your servants to you according to all that you say, for you have known that there is not a man among us acquainted with cutting wood, like the Sidonians.”
7 Mgbe Hiram nụrụ ozi Solomọn ziri, obi tọrọ ya ụtọ nke ukwuu. O kwuru sị, “Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị taa, nʼihi na o nyela Devid nwa nwoke nwere amamihe ịchị mba ukwuu a.”
And it comes to pass at Hiram’s hearing the words of Solomon, that he rejoices exceedingly and says, “Blessed [is] YHWH today, who has given to David a wise son over this numerous people.”
8 Ya mere, Hiram zigaara Solomọn ozi sị, “Anụla m ozi i ziteere m. Aga m emekwa ihe niile dịka i kwuru banyere i budatara gị osisi sida na osisi junipa.
And Hiram sends to Solomon, saying, “I have heard that which you have sent to me, I do all your desire concerning cedar-wood and fir-wood;
9 Ndị ohu m ga-esi nʼugwu Lebanọn budaruo ha nʼosimiri Mediterenịa. A ga-ekekọta ha ọnụ, zitere gị ha nʼebe ị chọrọ ịnọ buru ha. Mgbe ha sere nʼelu mmiri rute ebe ị chọrọ, anyị ga-atọsakwara gị ha, ka i buru ha. Ma gị onwe gị ga-eme ihe bụ ọchịchọ m, site na-inye ndị ụlọ m ihe oriri.”
my servants bring [them] down from Lebanon to the sea, and I make them floats in the sea to the place that you send to me, and I have spread them out there; and you take [them] up, and you execute my desire, to give the food [for] my house.”
10 Nʼụzọ dị otu a, Hiram nọgidere na-ezitere Solomọn osisi sida na junipa niile ọ chọrọ.
And Hiram is giving cedar-trees and fir-trees to Solomon—all his desire,
11 Solomọn nyere Hiram na ezinaụlọ ya narị puku bushel, na iri puku bushel ọka wiiti abụọ, ka ọ bụrụ ihe oriri nye ezinaụlọ ya, tinyekwara narị puku galọọnụ, na iri puku galọọnụ abụọ nke mmanụ oliv asụrụ asụ. Solomọn nọgidere na-enye Hiram ihe ndị a kwa afọ.
and Solomon has given twenty thousand cors of wheat to Hiram, [the] food for his house, and twenty cors of beaten oil; thus Solomon gives to Hiram year by year.
12 Onyenwe anyị nyere Solomọn amamihe dị ukwuu dịka o kwere ya na nkwa. Hiram na Solomọn nwere mmekọ udo, ha abụọ gbakwara ndụ.
And YHWH has given wisdom to Solomon as He spoke to him, and there is peace between Hiram and Solomon, and both of them make a covenant.
13 Eze Solomọn, sitere nʼakụkụ Izrel niile kpọbata ndị ọrụ mmanye ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri puku atọ.
And King Solomon lifts up a tribute out of all Israel, and the tribute is thirty thousand men,
14 Nʼotu ọnwa, ọ na-eziga puku mmadụ iri nʼime ndị a ka ha gaa Lebanọn ịrụ ọrụ. Nʼọnwa ọzọ, ọ na-ezigakwa puku mmadụ iri ka ha gaa gbanwee ndị buuru ụzọ gaa. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, otu ụzọ nʼime iri puku mmadụ atọ ndị a na-anọ na Lebanọn otu ọnwa maka ịrụ ọrụ, ma ha na-alọta zuo ike ọnwa abụọ. Adoniram bụ onyeisi ndị ọrụ mmanye a.
and he sends them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by changes; they are in Lebanon [for] a month [and] two months in their own house; and Adoniram [is] over the tribute.
15 Solomọn nwere ndị ọrụ ọzọ ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri puku asaa na-ebu ibu, nweekwa ndị na-awa nkume nʼugwu ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri puku asatọ.
And King Solomon has seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing in the mountain,
16 Nʼagụnyeghị ndị a, o nwekwara ndịisi, ndị na-elekọta ndị ọrụ ndị a, ọnụọgụgụ ha dị puku atọ na narị atọ.
apart from the three thousand and three hundred heads of the officers of Solomon who [are] over the work—those ruling over the people who are working in the business.
17 Dịka iwu eze si dị, ha na-esite nʼebe a na-awa nkume ebupụta nkume dị mma buru ibu nke e ji ewu ntọala ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ
And the king commands, and they bring great stones, precious stones, [and] hewn stones, to lay the foundation of the house;
18 Ndị ikom si Gebal, nyere ndị ọrụ Solomọn na ndị ọrụ Hiram aka, igbutu osisi na ịwa ha. Ha nyekwara aka ịkwado nkume e ji ewu ụlọ ahụ.
and the builders of Solomon, and the builders of Hiram, and the Giblites hew [them], and prepare the wood and the stones to build the house.
