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.
Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon, for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the place of his father, and Hiram had always loved David.
2 Ary Solomona naniraka tany amin’ i Hirama hanao hoe:
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.
“You know that David my father could not build a house for the name of Yahweh his God because of the wars which were around him on every side, until Yahweh put his enemies 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 Yahweh my God has given me rest on every side. There is no enemy and no evil occurrence.
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.
Behold, I intend to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God, as Yahweh spoke to David my father, saying, ‘Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place shall build the house for 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 that cedar trees be cut for me out of Lebanon. My servants will be with your servants; and I will give you wages for your servants according to all that you say. For you know that there is nobody among us who knows how to cut timber like 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.
When Hiram heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced greatly, and said, “Blessed is Yahweh today, who has given to David a wise son to rule 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.
Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, “I have heard the message which you have sent to me. I will do all your desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning cypress timber.
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 will bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. I will make them into rafts to go by sea to the place that you specify to me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and you will receive them. You will 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 timber and cypress timber 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.
Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat for food to his household, and twenty cors of pure oil. Solomon gave this 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.
Yahweh gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him. There was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty together.
13 Ary Solomona mpanjaka naka olona tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hanao fanompoana, ka olona telo alina no nalainy.
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.
He sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: for a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home; and Adoniram was over the men subject to forced labor.
15 Ary Solomona nanana mpitondra entana fito alina sy tambato valo alina teny an-tendrombohitra,
Solomon had seventy thousand who bore burdens, and eighty thousand who were stone cutters 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.
besides Solomon’s chief officers who were over the work: three thousand three hundred who ruled over the people who labored in the work.
17 Ary ny mpanjaka dia nandidy hanamboatra vato vaventy tsara sady voapaika hatao fanorenan’ ny trano.
The king commanded, and they cut out large stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with worked stone.
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.
Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders and the Gebalites cut them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
