< Otra Laiku 2 >
1 Un Salamans nodomāja celt namu Tā Kunga vārdam un namu savai ķēniņa valdībai.
Solomon ordered the building of a Temple to honor the Lord and a royal palace for himself.
2 Un Salamans noskaitīja septiņdesmit tūkstoš vīrus pie nastu nešanas un astoņdesmit tūkstoš cirtējus uz kalniem un trīs tūkstoš sešsimt uzraugus pār viņiem.
He allocated 70,000 men as laborers, 80,000 as stone cutters in the mountains, and 3,600 as foremen.
3 Un Salamans sūtīja pie Hirama, Tirus ķēniņa, un lika sacīt: kā tu esi darījis manam tēvam Dāvidam un tam sūtījis ciedru kokus, sev namu celt, kur dzīvot, -
Solomon sent a message to Hiram, king of Tyre, telling him,
4 Redzi, es gribu namu celt Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdam un Viņam to svētīt, Viņa priekšā kvēpināt ar saldām kvēpināmām zālēm un nolikt vienmēr priekšliekamas maizes un upurēt dedzināmos upurus ik rītu un ik vakaru, svētdienās un jaunos mēnešos un Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, augstos svētkos, kā Israēlim mūžīgi pienākas.
“Please do as you did with my father David when you sent him cedar timber for him to build a palace to live in. I'm about to start building a Temple to honor the Lord my God, dedicated to him, where he will be offered sweet-smelling incense, where the showbread will be always set out in rows, and where burnt offerings will be made every morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, at new moon festivals, and at the feasts of the Lord our God—this to be done forever in Israel.
5 Un tas nams, ko es celšu, būs liels, jo mūsu Dievs ir lielāks nekā visi dievi.
This Temple I am about to build must be impressive, because our God is greater than all gods.
6 Bet kam tad tik daudz spēka, Viņam namu celt? Jo debesis un visu debesu debesis nespēs Viņu saņemt; kas tad es esmu, ka varētu Viņam celt namu? Bet ka tik vien Viņa priekšā varētu kvēpināt.
But who can build a Temple for him to live in, for the heavens, even highest heaven, cannot contain him, and who am I that I should dare to build him a house, except to burn incense to him?
7 Un nu sūti man gudru vīru, kas māk izstrādāt zeltu un sudrabu un varu un dzelzi, purpuru, karmezīnu un zilumu, un kas prot strādāt izrakstītu darbu kopā ar tiem gudriem, kas pie manis iekš Jūda un Jeruzālemē, ko mans tēvs Dāvids gādājis.
So please send me a master craftsman who is skilled in working with gold, silver, bronze, and iron; and in purple, scarlet, and blue fabrics. He must also know how to engrave, working together with my expert craftsmen from Judea and Jerusalem provided by my father David.
8 Sūti man arī ciedru kokus, priedes un algumim kokus no Lībanus; jo es zinu, ka tavi kalpi prot cirst Lībanus kokus. Un redzi, mani kalpi būs pie taviem,
Also send me cedar, cypress, and algum timber from Lebanon, for I know that your workers are skillful in cutting down the trees of Lebanon. I will send men to help your workers
9 Man sacirst kokus lielā vairumā; jo tas nams, ko es celšu, būs liels un apbrīnojams.
to produce a large quantity of timber because the Temple I'm building will be really large and very impressive.
10 Un redzi, taviem kalpiem, kas tos kokus cērt, es došu divdesmit tūkstoš koru samaltu kviešu un divdesmit tūkstoš koru miežu, un divdesmit tūkstoš batus vīna un divdesmit tūkstoš batus eļļas.
I will pay your workers, the wood-cutters, 20,000 cors of crushed wheat, 20,000 cors of barley, 20,000 baths of wine, and 20,000 baths of olive oil.”
11 Tad Hirams, Tirus ķēniņš, atbildēja caur grāmatām un sūtīja pie Salamana: tāpēc ka Tas Kungs Savus ļaudis mīļo, Viņš tevi licis pār tiem par ķēniņu.
King Hiram of Tyre responded to Solomon by letter: “It's because the Lord loves his people that he has made you their king.”
12 Un Hirams sacīja: slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, kas radījis debesi un zemi, kas ķēniņam Dāvidam devis gudru, prātīgu un apdomīgu dēlu, kas namu uztaisīs Tam Kungam un namu savai ķēniņa valdībai.
Hiram went on, “Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth! He has given King David a wise son with insight and understanding who is going to build a Temple for the Lord and a royal palace for himself.
13 Tad es nu sūtu gudru pratēju vīru, Huramu Abivu;
I'm sending you Hiram-Abi, a master craftsman who knows and understands what he's doing.
14 Viņa māte ir no Dana meitām, un viņa tēvs Tiriešu vīrs. Tas māk izstrādāt zeltu un sudrabu, varu, dzelzi, akmeņus, kokus, purpuru un zilumu un smalkas dzijas, audeklu un karmezīnu, un darīt visādu izrakstītu darbu, izdomāt visādas gudras lietas, ko tam liek, ar taviem gudriem un ar tava tēva, mana kunga, Dāvida, gudriem.
His mother is from the tribe of Dan and his father is from Tyre. He's an expert in working with gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple, blue, and crimson fabric, and fine linen. He can do all kinds of engraving and can make any design he's given. He'll work with your craftsmen and with the craftsmen of my lord, your father David.
15 Tad nu lai sūta taviem kalpiem tos kviešus un miežus un eļļu un vīnu, ko mans kungs minējis.
Now my lord, please send to us his servants the wheat, barley, olive oil, and wine he spoke about.
16 Tad mēs cirtīsim Lībanus kokus, cik tev vajag un pie tevis novedīsim ar plostiem pār jūru uz Joppi, tad tu tos varēsi likt vest uz Jeruzālemi.
We will cut all timber you need from Lebanon and take it to you by sea in rafts to Joppa. From there you can transport it to Jerusalem.”
17 Un Salamans skaitīja visus svešiniekus Israēla zemē, pēc tās skaitīšanas, kā viņa tēvs Dāvids tos bija skaitījis, un tur atradās simt piecdesmit trīs tūkstoši seši simti.
Solomon had a census taken of all the foreigners in the land of Israel, like the census his father David had conducted, and found there were 153,600.
18 Un viņš no tiem ņēma septiņdesmit tūkstoš nastu nesējus un astoņdesmit tūkstoš cirtējus uz kalniem un trīs tūkstoš sešsimt uzraugus, ļaudis dzīt pie darba.
He allocated 70,000 as laborers, 80,000 as stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 as foremen.
