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,

And it came to pass when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he desired, and was pleased to do,

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

That the Lord appeared to him the second time, as he had appeared to him in Gabaon.

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 thy prayer and thy supplication, which thou hast made before me: I have sanctified this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever, and my eyes and my heart shall be there always.

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,

And if thou wilt walk before me, as thy father walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness: and wilt do all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my ordinances 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.

I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever, as I promised David thy father, saying: There shall not fail a man of thy race upon 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 children revolting shall turn away from following me, and will not keep my commandments, and my ceremonies, which I have set before you, but will go and worship 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;

I will take away Israel from the face of the land which I have given them; and the temple which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb, and a byword among all people.

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 shall be made an example of: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss, and say: Why hath the Lord done thus 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 shall answer: Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and followed strange gods, and adored them, and worshipped them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.

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

And when twenty years were ended 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 furnishing Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and gold according to all he had need of.) then Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities 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 came out of Tyre, to see the towns which Solomon had given him, and they pleased him not,

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 which thou hast given me, brother? And he called them the land of Chabul, unto this day.

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

And Hiram sent to king Solomon a hundred and 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, which king Solomon offered to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Mello, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Heser, and Mageddo, and Gazer.

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),

Pharao the king of Egypt came up and took Gazer, and burnt it with fire: and slew the Chanaanite that dwelt in the city, and gave it for a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

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

So Solomon built: Gazer, and Beth-horon the nether,

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 that belonged to himself, and were not walled, he fortified, the cities also of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatsoever he had a mind to build in Jerusalem, and in Libanus, and in all the 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 that were left of the Amorrhites, and Hethites, and Pherezites, and Hevites, and Jebusites, that are not of the children 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 children, that were left in the land, to wit, such as the children of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary unto 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 of the children of Israel Solomon made not any to be bondmen, but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and captains, and overseers of the chariots and 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.

And there were five hundred and fifty chief officers set over all the works of Solomon, and they had people under them, and had charge over 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 Pharao came up out of the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Mello.

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.

Solomon also offered three times every year holocausts, and victims of peace offerings upon the altar which he had built to the Lord, and he burnt incense before the Lord: and the temple was finished.

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 fleet in Asiongaber, which is by Ailath on the shore of the Red Sea in the land of Edom.

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 in the fleet, sailors that had knowledge of 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 they came to Ophir, and they brought from thence to king Solomon four hundred and twenty talents of gold.
