Pirmā Ķēniņu 5
1 Un Hirams, Tirus ķēniņš, sūtīja savus kalpus pie Salamana. (Jo viņš bija dzirdējis, ka šo bija par ķēniņu svaidījuši viņa tēva vietā.) Jo Hirams Dāvidam bija draugs bijis visu mūžu.
When Hiram king of Tyre heard that Solomon had been anointed king to succeed his father, he sent ambassadors to Solomon because Hiram had always been David's friend.
2 Un Salamans sūtīja pie Hirama un sacīja:
So Solomon sent this message back to Hiram,
3 Tu zini, ka mans tēvs Dāvids nevarēja namu uztaisīt Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdam, to karu dēļ, kas viņam bija visapkārt, tiekams Tas Kungs tos lika apakš viņa kājām.
“As you know, my father David was not able to build a Temple to honor the Lord his God because of the wars fought against him from every direction, until the Lord had conquered his enemies.
4 Un nu Tas Kungs, mans Dievs, man devis mieru visapkārt, ka nav neviena pretinieka nedz cita ļauna kavēkļa.
But now the Lord my God has given me peace all around—no enemies, no bad things happening.
5 Un redzi, es domāju uztaisīt namu Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdam, itin kā Tas Kungs uz manu tēvu Dāvidu runājis un sacījis: tavs dēls, ko Es tavā vietā sēdināšu uz tavu goda krēslu, tas uztaisīs namu Manam vārdam.
So I plan to build a Temple to honor the Lord my God, as the Lord told my father David. He said to him, ‘Your son whom I will place on your throne to succeed you will build the Temple to honor me.’
6 Tad nu pavēli, ka man cērt ciedru kokus no Lībanus, un mani kalpi būs ar taviem kalpiem, un to algu priekš taviem kalpiem es tev došu, tā kā tu saki; jo tu zini, ka pie mums neviena nav, kas kokus tā māk cirst kā Sidonieši.
So please order some cedars of Lebanon to be cut down for me. My workers will assist your workers, and I will pay your workers at the rate that you decide, for you know that we don't have anyone who knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.”
7 Un notikās, kad Hirams Salamana vārdus dzirdēja, tad viņš ļoti priecājās un sacīja: slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs šodien, kas Dāvidam gudru dēlu devis pār šo lielo tautu.
When Hiram heard Solomon's message, he was very happy and said, “Praise the Lord today, for he has given David a wise son to lead this great nation!”
8 Un Hirams sūtīja pie Salamana un sacīja: es esmu dzirdējis, par ko tu pie manis sūtījis. Es darīšu visu tavu prātu ar tiem ciedru kokiem un tām priedēm.
Hiram sent this reply to Solomon: “Thank you for your message. As for the cedar and cypress timber, I will do everything you want.
9 Maniem kalpiem tos no Lībanus būs novest jūrmalā, un es tos vedīšu ar plostiem pa jūru uz to vietu, ko tu man noteiksi, un es tos tur atraisīšu, ka tu tos vari aizvest. Tu arī darīsi manu prātu un dosi maizi priekš mana nama.
My workers will bring the logs down from Lebanon to the sea, and I will have them floated in rafts by sea to wherever you decide. I will have the rafts broken apart there, and you can take the logs away. In return I would like you to provide food for my household.”
10 Tā Hirams Salamanam deva ciedru kokus un priedes, kā viņš pats gribēja.
So Hiram provided Solomon with as much cedar and cypress timber that he wanted,
11 Un Salamans Hiramam deva divdesmit tūkstoš koru kviešu maizei priekš viņa nama un divdesmit koru sagrūstas eļļas. To Salamans Hiramam deva ik gadus.
Solomon gave Hiram 20,000 cors of wheat for food and 20,000 cors of olive oil for his household. Solomon provided this to Hiram every year.
12 Un Tas Kungs Salamanam deva gudrību, itin kā tam bija runājis. Un starp Hiramu un Salamanu bija miers, un tie abi derēja derību.
The Lord gave Solomon wisdom just as he had promised him. Hiram and Solomon had a good relationship and they made a peace treaty with each other.
13 Un ķēniņš Salamans uzlika darba klausību visam Israēlim, un to darbinieku bija trīsdesmit tūkstoš vīri.
King Solomon drafted a labor force of 30,000 from all of Israel.
14 Un viņš tos sūtīja uz Lībanu, pa desmit tūkstošiem ik mēnešus pēc kārtas; vienu mēnesi tie bija uz Lībanus un divus mēnešus tie bija mājās, un Adonirams bija uzraugs pār šiem darbiniekiem.
He sent them in shifts of 10,000 each month to Lebanon, so that they were one month in Lebanon and two months at home, Adoniram was in charge of the labor force.
15 Un Salamanam bija septiņdesmit tūkstoš nastu nesēji un astoņdesmit tūkstoš akmens cirtēji uz tā kalna,
Solomon had 70,000 porters and 80,000 stonecutters in the hill country,
16 Bez tiem Salamana virsuzraugiem, kas pār šo darbu bija iecelti; to bija trīs tūkstoš un trīssimt, kas uzraudzīja tos ļaudis, kas to darbu darīja.
as well as 3,300 foremen he placed in charge of the workers.
17 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja, lauzt lielus akmeņus, dārgus akmeņus, apcirstus akmeņus, tam namam likt pamatu.
Following the king's orders, they quarried large blocks of stone that were expensive to produce, and laid these dressed stones as the foundation for the Temple.
18 Un Salamana amatnieki un Hirama amatnieki un Ģiblieši tos apcirta un apstrādāja tos kokus un tos akmeņus, to namu uztaisīt.
So Solomon's and Hiram's builders, together with the Gebalites, cut the stone. They prepared the timber and stone to build the Temple.
