< 2 Tantara 2 >
1 Ary Solomona nilaza fa hanao trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah sy lapa ho an’ ny tenany.
And Solomon determined to build a house for the name of the LORD, and a house for his kingdom.
2 Dia nanisa olona fito alina ho mpitondra entana Solomona ary valo alina ho mpikapa hazo eny an-tendrombohitra ary enin-jato amby telo arivo ho mpifehy azy.
And Solomon numbered out seventy thousand men to bear burdens, and eighty thousand to hew in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
3 Ary Solomona naniraka hankany amin’ i Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, hanao hoe: Tahaka ny nataonao tamin’ i Davida raiko, raha nampanatitra hazo sedera ho azy hanaovany trano hitoerany ianao,
And Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him a house to dwell in it, [even so deal with me].
4 indro, izaho efa efa hanao trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro izay hohamasinina ho Azy ka handoroana ditin-kazo mani-pofona eo anatrehany sy hasiana ny mofo aseho mandrakariva ary handoroana ny fanatitra isa-maraina sy Isan-kariva ary amin’ ny Sabata sy ny voaloham-bolana ary amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahina voatendrin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray; ho adidin’ ny Isiraely mandrakizay izany.
Behold, I build a house to the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate [it] to him, [and] to burn before him sweet incense, and for the continual show-bread, and for the burnt-offerings morning and evening, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts of the LORD our God. This [is an ordinance] for ever to Israel.
5 Ary ny trano efa hataoko dia lehibe, satria lehibe noho ny andriamanitra rehetra ny Andriamanitray.
And the house which I build [is] great: for great [is] our God above all gods.
6 Nefa iza no mahay manao trano ho Azy? Fa ny lanitra ary ny lanitry ny lanitra aza tsy omby Azy. Ka iza moa aho, no hanao trano ho Azy, afa-tsy ny handoroana ditin-kazo manitra eo anatrehany ihany?
But who is able to build him a house, seeing the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain him? who [am] I then that I should build him a house, save only to burn sacrifice before him?
7 Koa aniraho olon-kendry aho hiasa volamena sy volafotsy sy varahina sy vy sy volomparasy sy jaky ary manga, ary izay mahay misokitra manao sarin-javatra mba hiara-manao amin’ ny olo-mahay zavatra izay atỳ amiko atỳ Joda sy Jerosalema, izay efa nomanin’ i Davida raiko.
Send me now therefore a man skillful to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and that hath skill to grave with the skillful men that [are] with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father provided.
8 Ary anatero hazo sedera sy kypreso ary almoga avy any Libanona koa aho; fa fantatro fa mahay mikapa hazo any Libanona ny vahoakanao; ary, indro, ny vahoakako hiaraka amin’ ny vahoakanao
Send me also cedar trees, fir trees, and algum trees out of Lebanon: for I know that thy servants have skill to cut timber in Lebanon; and behold, my servants [shall be] with thy servants,
9 mba hanamboatra hazo betsaka ho ahy; fa ny trano izay efa hataoko dia ho lehibe higagana.
Even to prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I am about to build [shall be] wonderfully great.
10 Ary, indro, homeko vary tritika voafotsy sy vary hordea roa alina kora avy ary divay sy diloilo roa alina bata avy ny vahoakanao mpikapa hazo.
And behold, I will give to thy servants, the hewers that cut timber, twenty thousand measures of beaten wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.
11 Ary hoy Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, tamin’ ny taratasy izay nampanateriny ho any amin’ i Solomona: Noho ny fitiavan’ i Jehovah ny olony no nanendreny anao ho mpanjakany.
Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, Because the LORD hath loved his people, he hath made thee king over them.
12 Ary hoy koa Hirama: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, Izay nanao ny lanitra sy ny tany, noho ny nanomezany an’ i Davida zanaka hendry, izay manana fahendrena sy fahalalana, ka hanao trano ho an’ i Jehovah sy lapa ho an’ ny tenany izy.
Huram said moreover, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, that made heaven and earth, who hath given to David the king a wise son, endued with prudence and understanding, that may build a house for the LORD, and a house for his kingdom.
13 Koa ankehitriny, indro, maniraka olona mahay zavatra sady manana fahalalana aho, dia Hiram-aby,
And now I have sent a skillful man, endued with understanding, of Huram my father's,
14 zanaky ny vehivavy Danita sy ny lehilahy Tyriana. Ary izy dia mahay miasa volamena sy volafotsy sy varahina sy vy sy vato sy hazo sy volomparasy sy manga sy rongony fotsy madinika ary jaky; ary mahay misokitra manao sarin-javatra samy hafa sy mahay manao marika amin’ izay asa rehetra asaina ataony, ka dia hiara-manao amin’ ny olon-kendrinao sy ny olon-kendrin’ itompokolahy Davida rainao Izy.
The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father [was] a man of Tyre, skillful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson; also to engrave any manner of engraving, and to find out every device which shall be put to him, with thy skillful men, and with the skillful men of my lord David thy father.
15 Ary ny vary tritika sy ny vary hordea ary ny diloilo sy ny divay, izay nolazainao, tompokolahy dia aoka hampanaterina ho atỳ aminay mpanomponao;
Now therefore the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the wine which my lord hath spoken of, let him send to his servants;
16 Ary izahay dia hikapa hazo any Libanona araka izay rehetra tadiavinao; ary hofehezinay ka hampandehaninay mitsinkafona amin’ ny ranomasina ho any Jopa; ary ianao kosa no hitondra azy miakatra hankany Jerosalema.
And we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as thou shalt need: and we will bring it to thee in floats by sea to Joppa; and thou mayest convey it to Jerusalem.
17 Ary Solomona nanisa ny lehilahy hafa firenena rehetra izay nonina tamin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely araka ny nanisan’ i Davida rainy Lzy, ary ny isany dia enin-jato amby telo arivo amby dimy alina sy iray hetsy.
And Solomon numbered all the strangers that [were] in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father had numbered them; and they were found a hundred and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred.
18 Ary ny fito alina tamin’ ireo dia nataony mpitondra entana, ary ny valo alina nataony mpikapa hazo eny an-tendrombohitra, ary ny enin-jato amby telo arivo nataony mpifehy hampiasa ny olona.
And he set seventy thousand of them [to be] bearers of burdens, and eighty thousand [to be] hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to set the people to work.
