1 Ar-ari 9
1 Kalpasan ti panangipatakder ni Solomon iti balay ni Yahweh, ken ti palasio ti ari, ken kalpasan a naipatungpalna dagiti amin a kayatna nga aramiden,
After Solomon’s [workers] had finished building the temple and his palace and everything else that Solomon wanted them to build,
2 napasamak a nagparang ni Yahweh kenni Solomon iti maikadua a gundaway, a kas iti panagparangna kenkuana idiay Gabaon.
Yahweh appeared to him [in a dream] a second time, like he had appeared to him at [the city of] Gibeon.
3 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Nangngegko ti kararag ken kiddawmo iti sangoanak. Inkonsagrarko, daytoy a balay, nga impatakdermo a para kaniak, tapno maikabil ti naganko sadiay iti agnanayon, addanto a sikikita dagiti matak sadiay ken ti pusok iti amin a tiempo.
Yahweh said to him, “I heard what you prayed and what you pleaded for me to do. I have set apart/dedicated this temple which your [workers] have built to be the place where people will worship me forever. I will always watch over it and protect it.
4 Maipapan kenka, no agbiagka iti sangoanak a kas iti panagbiag ni David nga amam nga addaan iti kinatarnaw ti puso ken iti kinalinteg, nga agtulnogka iti amin nga imbilinko kenka ken tungpalem dagiti alagadek ken dagiti lintegko,
“And as for you, if you conduct your life as I want you to, like your father David did, and if you very sincerely obey all the statutes and laws that I have commanded you to obey,
5 ket isaadkonto ti trono ti pagariam iti Israel iti agnanayon, a kas inkarik kenni David nga amam, a kunak, 'Saanto a maawanan ti tronom iti kaputotam nga agturay iti Israel.'
I will do what I promised your father that I would do: I promised him that Israel would always be ruled by his descendants.
6 Ngem no tallikudandak, sika wenno dagiti annakmo, ken saanmo a tungpalen dagiti bilbilinko ken dagiti alagadek nga intedko kenka, ket no agdayawka kadagiti sabali a dios ken agrukbabka kadakuada,
“But if you or your descendants turn away from me and disobey the commands and decrees that I have given to you, and if you start to worship other gods,
7 ket papanawekto ti Israel manipud iti daga nga intedko kadakuada; ken daytoy a balay nga inkonsagrarko nga agpaay iti naganko - pukawekto manipud iti imatangko. Ket agbalinto laeng a pagsasaritaan ken paggaangawan dagiti amin a tattao ti nagan nga 'Israel'.
I will remove my Israeli people from the land that I have given to them. I will also abandon this temple that I have set apart/dedicated to be the place where people should worship me. Then people everywhere will despise [the people of] Israel and make fun of them.
8 Ket uray no nangato unay daytoy a templo ita, amin a lumabas iti daytoy ket maklaat ken agsakuntipto. Saludsodendanto, 'Apay nga inaramid daytoy ni Yahweh iti daytoy a daga ken iti daytoy a balay?'
This temple will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by will be astonished [when they see it], and they will be shocked and say, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this temple?’
9 Isungbatto dagiti dadduma, 'Gapu ta tinallikudanda ni Yahweh a Diosda a nangiruar kadagiti kapuonanda manipud iti daga ti Egipto, ket nagtalekda kadagiti sabali a dios ket nagrukbabda ken nagdayawda kadagitoy. Isu nga inyeg amin ni Yahweh dagitoy a didigra kadakuada.'”
And other people will reply, ‘It happened because the Israeli people abandoned Yahweh their God, the one who brought their ancestors out of Egypt. They started to accept and worship other gods. And that is why Yahweh has caused them to experience all these disasters.’”
10 Napasamak a kalpasan ti dua pulo a tawen, nalpas nga imbangon ni Solomon dagiti dua a pasdek, ti templo ni Yahweh ken ti palasio ti ari.
Solomon’s [workers] labored for 20 years to build the temple and the palace.
11 Ni Hiram, nga ari ti Tiro, ket nangited kenni Solomon kadagiti kayo a sedro, kayo a saleng, ken balitok, amin a tinarigagayan ni Solomon. Isu nga inikkan ni Ari Solomon ni Hiram iti dua pulo a siudad iti daga ti Galilea.
Hiram, the king of Tyre had [arranged for his workers to] give Solomon all the cedar and pine [logs] and all the gold that he needed [for this work]. After it was all finished, King Solomon gave to Hiram 20 cities in the Galilee region.
12 Rimmuar ni Hiram manipud Tiro tapno kitaenna dagiti siudad nga inted kenkuana ni Solomon, ngem saan dagitoy a makaay-ayo kenkuana.
But when Hiram went from Tyre [to Galilee] to see the cities that Solomon had given to him, he was not pleased with them.
13 Isu a kinuna ni Hiram, “Ania dagitoy a siudad nga intedmo kaniak, kabsatko?” Pinanaganan ni Hiram dagitoy iti Daga ti Cabul, nga isu pay laeng ti pang-awagda ita nga aldaw.
He said to Solomon, “My friend, those cities that you gave me are worthless!” So, that area is still called ‘Worthless’.
14 Nangipatulod ni Hiram iti sangagasut ket dua pulo a talento ti balitok.
Hiram paid Solomon only five tons of gold [for those cities].
15 Dagtii sumaganad ket ti makagapu no apay nga imbilin ni Ari Solomon ti ingkapilitan a panagtrabaho: tapno maipatakder ti templo ni Yahweh ken ti palasiona, tapno maipatakder ti Millo ken ti pader ti Jerusalem, ken tapno maipatakder dagiti sarikedked ti Hasor, Megiddo, ken Gezer.
This is a record of the work that King Solomon forced men to do. He forced them to build the temple and his palace and the terraces/landfills [on the east side of the city], and the wall around Jerusalem, and [to rebuild the cities of] Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer.
16 Napan sinakup ni Faraon nga ari ti Egipto ti Gezer, pinuoranna daytoy, ken pinapatayna dagiti Canaanita iti siudad. Kalpasanna, inted ni Faraon ti siudad iti anakna, nga asawa ni Solomon a kas sagut iti panagkallaysada.
[The reason they needed to rebuild Gezer was that the army of] the king of Egypt had attacked Gezer and captured it. Then they had burned [the houses in] the city and killed all the people of the Canaan people-group who lived there. The king of Egypt gave that city to his daughter as a gift when she married Solomon.
17 Isu nga imbangon manen ni Solomon ti Gezer ken Bet-horon iti baba,
So Solomon’s workers also rebuilt Gezer, and they also rebuilt Lower Beth-Horon [city].
18 ti Baalat ken ti Tamar idiay let-ang iti daga ti Juda,
They also rebuilt Baalath and Tamar [towns] in the desert in [the southern part of] Judah.
19 ken amin dagiti siudad a pagiduldulinan a kukuana, ken dagiti siudad para kadagiti karwahena ken dagiti siudad a para kadagiti kumakabaliona, ken aniaman a tarigagayanna nga ibangon para iti pakaragsakanna idiay Jerusalem, idiay Lebanon, ken iti amin a daga nga iturturayanna.
They also built cities where they kept the supplies for Solomon, the places where his horses and chariots were kept. They also built everything else that Solomon wanted them to build, in Jerusalem and in Lebanon, and in other places in the area over which he ruled.
20 Maipapan kadagiti amin a tattao a nabati kadagiti Amorreo, kadagiti Heteo, kadagiti Pereseo, kadagiti Heveo, dagiti Jebuseo, a saan a nagtaud kadagiti tattao ti Israel,
There were many people who belonged to the Amor people-group, the Heth people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group who were not killed when the Israelis captured their land.
21 dagiti kaputotanda a nabati kadakuada iti daga, a saan a dinadael dagiti tattao ti Israel - pinagbalin ida ni Solomon nga inkapilitan nga agtrabaho, nga isuda pay laeng agpapan ita.
[Their descendants still lived in Israel]. It was those people whom Solomon forced to become his slaves [to build all those places], and they are still slaves.
22 Nupay kasta, saan a pinilit ni Solomon dagiti tattao ti Israel nga agtrabaho. Ngem ketdi, nagbalinda a soldadona, adipenna, panguloenna, opisial a mangimaton kadagiti luganna a pakigubat, ken dagiti nakakabalio a mannakigubat.
But Solomon did not force any Israeli people to become slaves. Some Israelis became soldiers and army officers and commanders and drivers of his chariots and soldiers who rode on horses.
23 Dagitoy met dagiti panguloen nga opisialna a mangimatmaton kadagiti aramid ni Solomon, 550 kadakuada, ti nangimaton kadagiti tattao a nagtrabaho.
There were 550 officials who supervised the slaves who worked [to build all those places].
24 Immakar ti anak a babai ni Faraon manipud iti siudad ni David ket napan iti balay nga impatakder ni Solomon a para kenkuana. Iti saan a nagbayag, impatakder ni Solomon ti Millo.
After [Solomon’s wife, who was] the daughter of the king of Egypt, moved from [the place outside Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’ to the palace that Solomon’s workers built for her, Solomon [told his workers to] fill in the slopes on the east side of the city.
25 Mamitlo iti makatawen a mangidaton ni Solomon kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken kadagiti daton a pakikappia iti altar nga impatakderna para kenni Yahweh, nangpuor kadagiti insenso kadagitoy iti altar nga adda iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Nalpasna ngarud ti templo ken us-usarennan ita daytoy.
Three times each year Solomon [brought to the temple] offerings that were completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to restore fellowship with Yahweh. He also brought incense to be burned in the presence of Yahweh. And so his men finished building the temple.
26 Nangaramid ni Ari Solomon iti adu a barko idiay Ezion Geber nga asideg iti Elat iti igid ti Nalabaga a Baybay, iti daga ti Edom.
King Solomon’s [workers] also built a fleet of ships at Ezion-Geber [city], which is near Elath [city], on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba, in the land belonging to the Edom people-group.
27 Nangibaon ni Hiram kadagiti adipen nga aglaylayag iti baybay, a kadua dagiti adipen ni Solomon a sumakay kadagiti barko.
[King] Hiram sent some very expert sailors to work on the ships with Solomon’s workers.
28 Napanda idiay Ofir a kaduada dagiti adipen ni Solomon. Manipud sadiay, nangiyawidda iti 420 a talento ti balitok a para kenni Ari Solomon.
They sailed to [the] Ophir [region] and brought back to Solomon about 16 tons of gold.
