1 Mpanjaka 9

1 Ary rehefa vitan’ i Solomona ny nanaovany ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka araka izay rehetra efa niriny hatao,

Now it happened that, when Solomon had perfected the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he had desired and had willed to do,

2 dia niseho tamin’ i Solomona indray Jehovah tahaka ilay nisehoany taminy tao Gibeona.

the Lord appeared to him a second time, just as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

3 Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Efa reko ny vavakao sy ny fifonanao izay nataonao teo anatrehako; koa efa nohamasiniko ity trano nataonao ity mba hampitoerana ny anarako mandrakizay: ary ho amin’ ity mandrakariva ny masoko sy ny foko.

And the Lord said to him: “I have heard your prayer and your petition, which you prayed before me. I have sanctified this house, which you have built, so that I may place my name there forever, and so that my eyes and my heart will be there for all days.

4 Ary raha ianao handeha eo anatrehako tahaka ny nandehanan’ i Davida rainao tamin’ ny fahitsian’ ny fo sy ny fahamarinana ka hanao araka izay rehetra nandidiako anao ary hitandrina ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko,

Also, if you will walk before me, just as your father walked, in simplicity of heart and in equity, and you do all that I have instructed to you, and you keep my laws and my judgments,

5 dia hampitoeriko mandrakizay amin’ ny Isiraely ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakanao, araka ilay nolazaiko tamin’ i Davida rainao hoe: Tsy ho diso zanakalahy amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely ianao.

then I will set the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, just as I promised your father David, saying: ‘A man from your stock shall not be taken away from the throne of Israel.’

6 Fa raha miala amin’ ny fanarahana Ahy kosa ianareo na ny zanakareo ka tsy mitandrina ny lalàko sy ny didiko, izay nataoko teo anoloanareo, fa mandeha manompo andriamani-kafa sy miankohoka eo anatrehany,

But if you and your sons, wandering, will have turned away, not following me, and not keeping my commandments and my ceremonies, which I have proposed to you, but instead you go away, and you serve strange gods and adore them,

7 dia hofongorako tsy ho amin’ ny tany izay nomeko azy ny Isiraely; ary ity trano izay nohamasiniko ho an’ ny anarako ity dia hofongorako tsy ho eo imasoko; ary ny Isiraely ho tonga ohabolana sy ambentinteny any amin’ ny firenena rehetra;

then I will take away Israel from the face of the land, which I have given to them. And the temple, which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out from my sight. And Israel will be a proverb and a parable among all the peoples.

8 ary na dia avo aza ity trano ity, dia mbola hitalanjonan’ izay rehetra mandalo izy sady hisitrisirany ka hanaovany hoe: Naninona re no dia nataon’ i Jehovah toy izao ity tany sy ity trano ity?

And this house will become an example: anyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and he will hiss and say, ‘Why has the Lord acted in this way to this land and to this house?’

9 Ary hisy hamaly hoe: Satria ny olona nahafoy an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny, Izay nitondra ny razany nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ary nikikitra tamin’ andriamani-kafa sy niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanompo azy, dia izany no nampidiran’ i Jehovah izao loza rehetra izao taminy.

And they will respond: ‘Because they abandoned the Lord their God, who led their fathers away from the land of Egypt, and they followed strange gods, and they adored them and served them. For this reason, the Lord led all this evil over them.’”

10 Ary nony afaka ny roa-polo taona nanaovan’ i Solomona ny trano roa, dia ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka

Then, when twenty years were fulfilled, after Solomon had built the two houses, that is, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,

11 (Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, nanome an’ i Solomona hazo sedera sy hazo kypreso ary volamena, araka izay rehetra niriny), dia nomen’ i Solomona tanàna roa-polo tany amin’ ny tany Galilia kosa Hirama.

Hiram, the king of Tyre, having supplied Solomon with cedar wood, and spruce wood, and gold, in accord with all that he needed, then Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns in the land of Galilee.

12 Ary Hirama niala tany Tyro hizaha ny tanàna izay nomen’ i Solomona azy, ka tsy tiany ireny.

And Hiram went out of Tyre, so that he might view the towns that Solomon had given to him. And they did not please him.

13 Dia hoy izy: Hatao inona ireo tanàna nomenao ahy ireo, ry rahalahiko? Ary ireny dia natao hoe tany Kobola mandraka androany.

And he said, “Are these the cities that you have given to me, brother?” And he called them the land of Cabul, even to this day.

14 Ary Hirama nampanatitra talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato ho an’ ny mpanjaka.

And Hiram sent to king Solomon one hundred twenty talents of gold.

15 Ary izao no toetry ny fanompoana nampanaovin’ i Solomona mpanjaka ny olona, tamin’ ny nanaovany ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana ary Milo sy ny màndan’ i Jerosalema, sy Hazora sy Megido ary Gazera

This is the sum of the expenses that king Solomon offered for the building of the house of the Lord, and his own house, and for Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

16 (fa Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, efa niakatra, dia nahafaka an’ i Gazera ka nandoro azy tamin’ ny afo; ary ny Kananita izay nitoetra tao an-tanàna dia novonoiny, ary ny tanàna dia nomeny ho haren-jazavavy ho an’ ny zananivavy, vadin’ i Solomona),

Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, ascended and seized Gezer, and he burned it with fire. And he put to death the Canaanite who was living in the city, and he gave it as a dowry for his daughter, the wife of Solomon.

17 ary, Solomona nanamboatra an’ i Gazera sy Beti-horona ambany

Therefore, Solomon built up Gezer, and lower Beth-horon,

18 sy Baleta sy Tadmora any an-efitra, amin’ ny tany Samata,

and Baalath, and Palmira in the land of the wilderness.

19 ary ny tanàna fitehirizana rehetra izay nananan’ i Solomona sy ny tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy sy ny tanàna fitoeran’ ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly sy izay tian’ i Solomona haorina tany Jerosalema sy tany Libanona ary tany amin’ ny tany nanjakany rehetra.

And all the towns which belonged to him, and which were without walls, he walled, along with the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatever was pleasing to him that he might build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in the entire land of his dominion.

20 Ary ny olona sisa rehetra tamin’ ny Amorita sy ny Hetita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita, izay tsy isan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely,

All the people who had remained of the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the sons of Israel,

21 dia ny taranany izay sisa nandimby azy teo amin’ ny tany, izay tsy azon’ ny Isiraely naringana avokoa, no nampanaovin’ i Solomona fanompoana mandraka androany.

their sons, who had remained in the land, namely, those whom the sons of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary, even to this day.

22 Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia tsy mba nampanaovin’ i Solomona izany; fa izy kosa no miaramila sy mpanompony sy komandy sy mpanafika malaza sy komandin’ ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny.

But from the sons of Israel, Solomon did not appoint anyone at all to serve, except the men of war, and his ministers, and leaders, and commanders, and the overseers of the chariots and the horses.

23 Izao no isan’ ny mpifehy ny olona voatendry izay nitandrina ny asan’ i Solomona: dimam-polo amby dimam-jato lahy no mpifehy ny mpiasa.

Now there were five hundred fifty leaders in the first place over all the works of Solomon, and they had people subject to them, and these were given orders for the appointed works.

24 Ary rehefa niakatra avy any an-Tanànan’ i Davida ny zanakavavin’ i Farao hankany amin’ ny tranony izay nataon’ i Solomona ho azy, dia nanao an’ i Milo koa izy.

And the daughter of Pharaoh went up from the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her. Then he built up Millo.

25 Ary intelo isan-taona no nanateran’ i Solomona fanatitra dorana sy fanati-pihavanana teo ambonin’ ny alitara izay naoriny ho an’ i Jehovah, sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy. Ka toy izany no nahavitany ny trano.

Also, three times each year, Solomon offered holocausts and victims of peace offerings, upon the altar that he had built to the Lord, and he burned incense before the Lord. And the temple was perfected.

26 Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao sambo tao Ezion-gebera, izay ao anilan’ i Elota, ao amoron’ ny Ranomasina Mena, amin’ ny tany Edoma.

And king Solomon made a navy at Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shores of the Red Sea, in the land of Idumea.

27 Ary Hirama nampandeha ny vahoakany tamin’ ny sambo, dia matilô izay nahay ranomasina, hiaraka amin’ ny vahoakan’ i Solomona.

And Hiram sent his servants to that navy, the sailors and those knowledgeable about the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

28 Ary nankany Ofira ireo, dia naka talenta volamena roa-polo amby efa-jato, ka nentiny tany amin’ i Solomona mpanjaka izany.

And when they had gone to Ophir, taking from there four hundred twenty talents of gold, they brought it to king Solomon.
