1 Un Salamans nodomāja celt namu Tā Kunga vārdam un namu savai ķēniņa valdībai.
Now Solomon decided to build a house for the LORD’s name, and a house for his kingdom.
2 Un Salamans noskaitīja septiņdesmit tūkstoš vīrus pie nastu nešanas un astoņdesmit tūkstoš cirtējus uz kalniem un trīs tūkstoš sešsimt uzraugus pār viņiem.
Solomon counted out seventy thousand men to bear burdens, eighty thousand men who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
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 to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, “As you dealt with David my father, and sent him cedars to build him a house in which to dwell, so deal with me.
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.
Behold, I am about to build a house for the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate it to him, to burn before him incense of sweet spices, for the continual show bread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts of the LORD our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.
5 Un tas nams, ko es celšu, būs liels, jo mūsu Dievs ir lielāks nekā visi dievi.
“The house which I am building will be great, for 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 is able to build him a house, since heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain him? Who am I then, that I should build him a house, except just to burn incense before 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.
“Now therefore send me a man skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, and in purple, crimson, and blue, and who knows how to engrave engravings, to be with the skilful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father provided.
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,
“Send me also cedar trees, cypress trees, and algum trees out of Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut timber in Lebanon. Behold, my servants will be with your servants,
9 Man sacirst kokus lielā vairumā; jo tas nams, ko es celšu, būs liels un apbrīnojams.
even to prepare me timber in abundance; for the house which I am about to build will be great and wonderful.
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.
Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of beaten wheat, twenty thousand baths of barley, twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of 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.
Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, “Because the LORD loves his people, he has made you king over them.”
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.
Huram continued, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, who would build a house for the LORD and a house for his kingdom.
13 Tad es nu sūtu gudru pratēju vīru, Huramu Abivu;
Now I have sent a skilful man, endowed with understanding, Huram-abi,
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.
the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre. He is skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, in stone, in timber, in purple, in blue, in fine linen, and in crimson, also to engrave any kind of engraving and to devise any device, that there may be a place appointed to him with your skilful men, and with the skilful men of my lord David your father.
15 Tad nu lai sūta taviem kalpiem tos kviešus un miežus un eļļu un vīnu, ko mans kungs minējis.
“Now therefore, the wheat, the barley, the oil, and the wine which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants;
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.
and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you need. We will bring it to you in rafts by sea to Joppa; then you shall carry it up 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 counted all the foreigners who were in the land of Israel, after the census with which David his father had counted them; and they found one hundred and fifty-three thousand and six hundred.
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 set seventy thousand of them to bear burdens, eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to assign the people their work.
