1 Hagi Tairi vahe'mofo kini ne' Hiramu'a kora Deviti'ene tragoteno mani'nea nekino, Deviti nemofo Solomonima kini azeri oti'za kema nentahino'a, vugota eri'za vahe'arami huzamantege'za humuse hunte'naku e'naze.
Hiram, the king of Tyre [city], had always been a close friend of King David. When he heard that Solomon had been appointed to become the king after his father was no longer king, he sent some messengers to Solomon [to congratulate him].
2 Hagi Solomoni'a amanage huno Hiramuntega kea atrentegeno vu'ne,
Solomon [gave those messengers] this message to take back to Hiram:
3 Kagra antahi'nane, nenfa Deviti'a Ra Anumzamofo agima erisgahu nona onki'ne. Na'ankure agra amama manigagi'naza ha' vahe'aramimo'za maka zupa hara eme hunteva hunteva nehazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a aza higeno hara huzmagatere'ne.
“You know that my father David [led his soldiers to] fight many wars against his enemies in the nearby countries. So he could not [arrange to] build a temple in which we [MTY] could worship Yahweh our God, until after Yahweh enabled [the Israeli army] to defeat [IDM] all his enemies.
4 Hianagi menina Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamo'a maka kaziga ha'ma hu'zana eritregeno, hara eme huonantazageno, mago knazana forera osigena so'e hu'na mani'noe.
But now Yahweh our God has enabled us to have peace with all the surrounding countries. [(There is no danger that/We do not need to worry that)] we will be attacked.
5 E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamo'ma nenfa Devitima asamino, kagri trate'ma kinima azeri otisua mofavremo, Nagri nagima erisga hu nona kigahie huno'ma hu'nea kante ante'na Ra Anumzamofo agima erisgahu mono nona kinaku nehue.
Yahweh promised my father David, ‘Your son, whom I will enable to be king after you are no longer king, will build a temple for me [MTY].’ Because of that, I have decided to build a temple in which we can worship [MTY] Yahweh our God.
6 E'ina hu'negu huge'za Lebanonitira sida zafa antagi'za eme namiho. Eri'za vahe'nimozane, kagri eri'za vahe'mo'zane ana eri'zana eneri'nage'na nama'a zago agima ahesanana, kagri eri'za vahera zagoa tesizamantegahue. Hagi kagra ko antahinka kenka hu'nane, mago'a tagri vahe'mo'za Saidoni vahe'motama zafama nentagi'za zana hu'za zafa ontagigahaze.
“So [I am requesting that] you command your workers to cut cedar trees for me. My men will work with them, and I will pay your workers whatever you decide. [But] my men [cannot do the work alone, ] because they do not know how to cut down trees like your workers from Sidon [city] do.”
7 Hagi Solomoni'ma atrentea ke'ma Hiramu'ma nentahino'a, tusi muse nehuno amanage hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a Devitina knare antahi'zane mofavre amigeno hanavenentake Israeli vahe'mofo kinia manie!
When Hiram heard the message from Solomon, he was very happy and said, “I praise Yahweh today for giving David a very wise son to rule that great nation!”
8 Anage nehuno Hiramu'a amanage huno Solomonintega kea atregeno e'ne, Nagritegama kema atrankeno'ma eana hago antahuanki'na, maka sida zafane saipresi zafanena antagi'na atresugeno egahie.
He sent this message back to Solomon: “I have heard the message that you sent to me, and I am ready to do what you ask. I will provide cedar and cypress logs.
9 Hagi nagri eri'za vahe'mo'za Lebanonitira ana zafaramina antagi'za eri'za hagerintera erami'nage'na magokepi eritru hu'na anaki'nugeno hagerimpi eri'za e'za kema hunante e'za nofira eme ahekampru hanagenka ana zafaramina erigahane. Hagi ana zafamofo mizama'a nagrira ne'zanku navesiankinka, nonifima nemaniza naganimofo ne'zana namigahane.
My workers will bring the logs down from [the] Lebanon [mountains] to the [Mediterranean] sea. Then they will [tie them together to] make rafts to float them [in the water] along the coast to the place that you indicate. Then my workers will untie the logs, and your workers will take them from there. What I want you to do is to supply food for the people who work in my palace.”
10 Anage Hiramu'a nehuno, sida zafane saipresi zafanena Solomoni'ma hia kante anteno, maka antagino erino eme amigeno,
So Hiram [arranged for his workers to] supply all the cedar and cypress logs that Solomon wanted.
11 ana nona'a Solomoni'a kna'amo'a 20 tauseni'a donki afumo'ma eriga avamente knare'ma huno kane witia nemino, 20 tauseni'a donki afumo'ma eriga avamente olivi masavenena Hiramu nagara ami'ne. Hagi e'ina avamente maka kafune kafunena Solomoni'a Hiramu nagara ne'zana zamitere hu'ne.
Each year Solomon gave Hiram 100,000 bushels of wheat and 110,000 gallons of pure [olive] oil to feed the people who worked in his palace.
12 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kema huvempama hu'nea kante anteno Solomonina knare antahi'zana ami'ne. Hagi Solomoni'ene Hiramukea zanarimpa fru hu'nema manina'a nanekea huhagerafiteke, fru huke mani'na'e.
Yahweh enabled Solomon to be wise, just like he had promised. Solomon and Hiram made a treaty/agreement that there would be peace between their [two governments/countries].
13 Hagi Solomoni'a ana eri'zama erisaza vahera, Israeli mopafintira 30 tauseni'a vahe zamazeri oti'ne.
King Solomon forced 30,000 men from all over Israel to become his workers.
14 Hagi ana erizantera 10 tauseni'a vahe mago ikantera huzamantetere hu'ne. Hagi mago ikampi Lebanonia ana eri'zana omerite'za, tare ikana kumazamire emanitere hu'naze. Hagi ana eri'zantera Adoniramu kegava hu'nege'za ana eri'zana eri'naze.
Adoniram was their boss. Solomon divided the men into three groups. Each month 10,000 of them went to Lebanon and worked for a month there, and then they came back home for two months.
15 Hagi Solomoni'a havema eri'za esaza vahera70 tauseni'a nezamavareno, agonafinti'ma havema tagahu vahera 80 tauseni'a nezamavareno,
Solomon also forced 80,000 men to cut stones in the hilly area and 70,000 men to haul the stones [to Jerusalem].
16 ana erizante'ma kegavahu kva vahetmina 3tausen 300'a vahe zamavare'ne.
And he also assigned 3,600 men to supervise their work.
17 Hagi Solomoni'a huzamantege'za zago'amo'ma mareri havema me'neregati vu'za ranra have ome tagahu'za azageno, ana mono nomofo trara agafa huno ante'ne.
The king also commanded his workers to cut huge blocks of stones from the quarries and to smooth the sides of the stones. Those huge stones were for the foundation of the temple.
18 Hagi Gebali rankumateti vahe'mo'za Solomoni eri'za vahe'ene Hiramu eri'za vahe'enena zamaza hu'za ana noma ki'zana havea taga nehu'za zafa antagi'naze.
Solomon’s workers and Hiram’s workers and men from Gebal/Byblos [city] shaped the stones and prepared the timber to build the temple.
