< 1 Bakonzi 5 >

1 Tango Irami, mokonzi ya Tiri, ayokaki sango ete bapakolaki Salomo mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi mpo na kokitana na Davidi, tata na ye, atindaki bantoma epai ya Salomo, pamba te azalaki tango nyonso molingami ya Davidi.
And Hiram king of Tyre sends his servants to Solomon, for he heard that they had anointed him for king instead of his father, for Hiram was loving toward David all the days;
2 Salomo azongiselaki Irami maloba oyo:
and Solomon sends to Hiram, saying,
3 — Oyebi malamu ete Davidi, tata na ngai, alongaki te kotonga Ndako mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na ye, likolo ya bitumba oyo azalaki na yango na bikolo oyo ezingelaki ye, kino tango Yawe atiaki bikolo yango na se ya matambe na ye.
“You have known my father David, that he has not been able to build a house for the Name of his God YHWH, because of the wars that have been all around him, until YHWH’s putting them under the soles of his feet.
4 Kasi sik’oyo, Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, apesi ngai bopemi na bangambo nyonso, mpe ezali lisusu na monguna moko te mpe na likambo moko te oyo ekoki kobangisa ngai.
And now, my God YHWH has given rest to me all around, there is no adversary nor evil occurrence,
5 Sik’oyo, nazwi mokano ya kotonga Ndako mpo na lokumu ya Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, ndenge Yawe alobaki na Davidi, tata na ngai: « Ezali mwana na yo ya mobali oyo nakovandisa na kiti na yo ya bokonzi mpo na kokitana na yo nde akotonga Ndako mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai. »
and behold, I am saying to build a house for the Name of my God YHWH, as YHWH spoke to my father David, saying, Your son whom I appoint in your stead on your throne, he builds the house for My Name.
6 Boye, pesa mitindo ete bakatela ngai banzete ya sedele ya Libani. Basali na ngai bakosunga basali na yo, mpe ngai nakofuta yo lifuti oyo okokata mpo na basali na yo, pamba te oyebi malamu ete ezali na bato te kati na biso oyo bayebi kokata banzete lokola bino, bato ya Sidoni.
And now, command, and they cut down cedars for me out of Lebanon, and my servants are with your servants, and I give the hire of your servants to you according to all that you say, for you have known that there is not a man among us acquainted with cutting wood, like the Sidonians.”
7 Tango Irami ayokaki maloba ya Salomo, asepelaki na yango makasi mpe alobaki: — Tika ete Yawe apambolama, Ye oyo apesaki Davidi mwana oyo atondi na bwanya mpo na kokamba ekolo monene oyo!
And it comes to pass at Hiram’s hearing the words of Solomon, that he rejoices exceedingly and says, “Blessed [is] YHWH today, who has given to David a wise son over this numerous people.”
8 Irami atindelaki Salomo eyano oyo: — Nayambaki maloba oyo otindelaki ngai mpe nakosala nyonso oyo ozali na yango posa: banzete ya sedele mpe ya sipele.
And Hiram sends to Solomon, saying, “I have heard that which you have sent to me, I do all your desire concerning cedar-wood and fir-wood;
9 Basali na ngai bakomema banzete yango wuta na Libani kino na ebale monene, bakokangisa yango na basinga mpo na kotinda yango na nzela ya ebale monene; mpe nakosala ete ekoma kino na esika oyo okoyebisa ngai. Kuna nde nakofungola yango basinga; mpe yo, okoki kozwa mpe komema yango. Kasi yo, okokokisa posa na ngai oyo: okobanda kopesa basali ya ndako na ngai bilei.
my servants bring [them] down from Lebanon to the sea, and I make them floats in the sea to the place that you send to me, and I have spread them out there; and you take [them] up, and you execute my desire, to give the food [for] my house.”
10 Irami apesaki epai ya Salomo banzete ya sedele mpe ya sipele nyonso oyo azalaki na yango na bosenga.
And Hiram is giving cedar-trees and fir-trees to Solomon—all his desire,
11 Salomo mpe, na ngambo na ye, azalaki kopesa mobu na mobu epai ya Irami batone nkoto motoba ya ble, balitele nkoto libwa ya mafuta ya olive ya kitoko koleka, mpo na ndako ya mokonzi.
and Solomon has given twenty thousand cors of wheat to Hiram, [the] food for his house, and twenty cors of beaten oil; thus Solomon gives to Hiram year by year.
12 Yawe apesaki Salomo bwanya kolanda elaka oyo apesaki ye. Boye, kimia ezalaki kati na Irami mpe Salomo, mpe bango mibale basalaki boyokani.
And YHWH has given wisdom to Solomon as He spoke to him, and there is peace between Hiram and Solomon, and both of them make a covenant.
13 Mokonzi Salomo azwaki kati na Isalaele mobimba bato nkoto tuku misato mpo na kosala misala makasi.
And King Solomon lifts up a tribute out of all Israel, and the tribute is thirty thousand men,
14 Akabolaki bango na masanga misato ya bato nkoto zomi: babandaki kosala sanza moko, na Libani, mpe basanza mibale na ndako; lisanga moko sima na mosusu. Adonirami azalaki mokambi ya bato ya misala makasi.
and he sends them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by changes; they are in Lebanon [for] a month [and] two months in their own house; and Adoniram [is] over the tribute.
15 Salomo azwaki lisusu na mosala bato nkoto tuku sambo mpo na komema mikumba, bato nkoto tuku mwambe mpo na kopasola mabanga kati na ngomba;
And King Solomon has seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing in the mountain,
16 mpe bakambi ya misala, nkoto misato na nkama misato, bazalaki kolandela misala na bokambami ya bakonzi ya misala ya Salomo.
apart from the three thousand and three hundred heads of the officers of Solomon who [are] over the work—those ruling over the people who are working in the business.
17 Mokonzi apesaki mitindo ete bapasola mabanga minene mpe ya kitoko mpo na kosalela yango moboko ya Tempelo.
And the king commands, and they bring great stones, precious stones, [and] hewn stones, to lay the foundation of the house;
18 Basali ya Salomo mpe ya Irami, elongo na basali oyo bawutaki na engumba Biblosi, bamikotisaki na mosala ya kokata yango, kopasola mabaya mpe kobongisa mabanga mpo na kotonga Tempelo.
and the builders of Solomon, and the builders of Hiram, and the Giblites hew [them], and prepare the wood and the stones to build the house.
