1 Mpanjaka 5
1 Ary Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, naniraka ny mpanompony ho any amin’ i Solomona, satria reny fa izy no voahosotra ho mpanjaka handimby an-drainy; fa Hirama dia sakaizan’ i Davida hatrizay ela izay.
And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.
2 Ary Solomona naniraka tany amin’ i Hirama hanao hoe:
And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
3 Fantatrao fa Davida raiko tsy nahavita trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny noho ny ady nanodidina azy, ambara-panaon’ i Jehovah ireo ho eo ambanin’ ny faladiany.
Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.
4 Fa ankehitriny Jehovah Andriamanitro efa nanome ahy fitsaharana amin’ ny manodidina, ka tsy misy fahavalo na loza manjo intsony.
But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.
5 Ary, indro, izaho mikasa hanao trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro, araka ilay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Davida raiko hoe: Ny zanakao izay hapetrako eo amin’ ny seza fiandriananao handimby anao, izy no hanao trano ho an’ ny anarako.
And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.
6 Roa dia mba asaovy misy mikapa hazo sedera any Libanona ho ahy; ary ny vahoakako hiarata amin’ ny vahoakanao, ka ny karaman’ ny vahoakanao dia homeko anao araka izay hotononinao; fa fantatrao fa tsy mba misy olona atỳ aminay mahay mikapa hazo tahaka ny Sidoniana.
Now therefore command thou that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and unto thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that [there is] not among us any that can skill to hew timber like unto the Sidonians.
7 Ary rehefa ren’ i Hirama ny tenin’ i Solomona, dia faly indrindra izy ka nanao hoe: Ankehitriny izao dia isaorana anie Jehovah, Izay nanome zanakalahy hendry ho Davida hanapaka izao olona betsaka izao.
And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] the LORD this day, which hath given unto David a wise son over this great people.
8 Ary Hirama naniraka tany amin’ i Solomona hanao hoe: Efa reko ny nanirahanao tatỳ amiko; koa izaho dia hanao izay rehetra irinao ny amin’ ny hazo sedera sy ny hazo kypreso.
And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: [and] I will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
9 Ny vahoakako hitondra azy midìna avy any Libanona ho any amin’ ny ranomasina, ary hofeheziko ka hampandehaniko mitsinkafona amin’ ny rano ho any amin’ izay hotononinao, ary any vao hoberahiko izy, ka dia ianao kosa no hampaka azy; ary ianao dia hanao izay iriko amin’ ny fanomezan-kanina ho an’ ny ankohonako.
My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon unto the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats unto the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive [them: ] and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.
10 Ary Hirama dia nanome hazo sedera sy hazo kypreso ho an’ i Solomona araka izay rehetra nilainy.
So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees [according to] all his desire.
11 Ary Solomona kosa nanome an’ i Hirama vary tritika roa alina kora ho an’ ny ankohonany ary diloilo roa-polo kora avy amin’ ny oliva voatoto; izany no nomen’ i Solomona an’ i Hirama isan-taona isan-taona.
And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat [for] food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.
12 Ary Jehovah nanome fahendrena an’ i Solomona, araka izay nolazainy taminy; ary nihavana Hirama sy Solomona, ka nanao fanekena izy roa lahy.
And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
13 Ary Solomona mpanjaka naka olona tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hanao fanompoana, ka olona telo alina no nalainy.
And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
14 Ary nirahiny nankany Libanona ireny, dia iray alina no indray milatsaka isam-bolana; iray volana izy no tany Libanona, ary roa volana kosa mba tany an-tranony; ary Adonirama no nifehy azy rehetra.
And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home: and Adoniram [was] over the levy.
15 Ary Solomona nanana mpitondra entana fito alina sy tambato valo alina teny an-tendrombohitra,
And Solomon had threescore and ten thousand that bare burdens, and fourscore thousand hewers in the mountains;
16 afa-tsy ny lehiben’ ireo olona voatendrin’ i Solomona ireo, izay nitandrina ny raharaha, dia telonjato amby telo arivo lahy izay nifehy ny mpiasa.
Beside the chief of Solomon’s officers which [were] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
17 Ary ny mpanjaka dia nandidy hanamboatra vato vaventy tsara sady voapaika hatao fanorenan’ ny trano.
And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.
18 Ary ny mpiasan’ i Solomona sy Hirama (indrindra fa ny avy any Gebala) no nipaika sy nanamboatra ny hazo sy ny vato hatao trano.
And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders did hew [them], and the stonesquarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
