1 Mpanjaka 5
1 Nirahe’ i Kirame, mpanjaka’ i Tsore mb’amy Selomò mb’eo o mpitoro’eo, ie nahajanjiñe t’ie norizañe ho mpanjaka handimbe an-drae’e; amy te nainai’e nimpirañetse amy Davide t’i Kirame.
And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon: for he heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram had always been David’s friend.
2 Aa le nampihitrife’ i Selomò amy Kirame, ty hoe:
And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:
3 Fohi’o te tsy nahafamboatse anjomba ho a i tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ey t’i Davide raeko, ty amo hotakotake niariseho azeo ampara’ t’ie napo’ Iehovà ambane’ o lelam-pandia’eo.
Thou knowest the will of David my father, and that he could not build a house to the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars that were round about him, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.
4 Fe tinolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko fitofàñe ty miariary ahy iaby henanekeo, amy t’ie tsy aman-drafelahy ndra raha mizo.
But now the Lord my God hath given me rest round about: and there is no adversary nor evil occurrence.
5 Ingo, hoe ty volako, Handranjiako anjomba ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko, ty amy tsinara’ Iehovà an-draeko Davidey, ty hoe: Ty ana’o hampiambesarako am-piambesa’o ty hamboatse anjomba ho ami’ty añarako.
Wherefore I purpose to build a temple to the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spoke to David my father, saying: my son, whom I will set upon the throne in thy piece, he shall build a house to my name.
6 Aa le lilio ty hamiràñe mendoraveñe e Lebanone ao, le hindre amo mpitoro’oo o mpitorokoo vaho hatoloko ama’o ho a o mpitoro’oo ty tambe toñone’o ho a iareo, ie fohi’o te tsy ama’ay ty mahafira hatae manahake o nte-Tsidoneo.
Give orders therefore that thy servants cut me down cedar trees out of Libanus, and let my servants be with thy servants: and I will give thee the hire of thy servants whatsoever thou wilt ask, for thou knowest how there is not among my people a man that has skill to hew wood like to the Sidonians.
7 Ie jinanji’ i Kirame i saontsi’ i Selomòy le vata’e nirebeke vaho nanao ty hoe: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà henane zao, Ie nanolotse i Davide anake mahihitse hifeleke ondaty jabajaba retoañe.
Now when Hiram had heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced exceedingly, and said: Blessed be the Lord God this day, who hath given to David a very wise son over this numerous people.
8 Aa le nahitri’ i Kirame amy Selomò ty hoe: Fa tsinanoko i nañitrifa’o ahiy le hene hanoeko o satrien’ arofo’oo amo mendoraveñe naho haradrantoo.
And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying: I have heard all thou hast desired of me: and I will do all thy desire concerning cedar trees, and fir trees.
9 Hazotso’ o mpitorokoo boake Lebanone pak’ an-driak’ añe izay; le hamboareko t’ie hihafo amy riakey handenà’ iereo mb’amy toetse hatoro’o ahio, naho hakatrak’ añe, vaho ho rambese’o; le ihe ty hañeneke i fañiriakoy te hamahana’o mahakama ty akibako.
My servants shall bring them down from Libanus to the sea: and I will put them together in floats in the sea, and convey them to the place, which thou shalt signify to me; and will land them there, and thou shalt receive them: and thou shalt allow me necessaries, to furnish food for my household.
10 Aa le natolo’ i Kirame amy Selomò ze fonga mendoraveñe naho haradranto nipaia’e.
So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees, and fir trees, according to all his desire.
11 Natolo’ i Selomò amy Kirame ka ty vare-bolè ro’ale kore hamahana’e o añ’anjomba’eo, naho menake finofoke roapolo kore; izay ty natolo’ i Selomò amy Kirame taoñ’ an-taoñe.
And Solomon allowed Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat, for provision for his house, and twenty measures of the purest oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram every year.
12 Tinolo’ Iehovà hihitse t’i Selomò, ty amy nitsarae’e ama’ey le nifampilongo t’i Kirame naho i Selomò; vaho nifanao fañina.
And the Lord gave wisdom to Solomon, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they two made a league together.
13 Aa le hene nampitsatoha’ i Selomò haba t’Israele, ondaty telo-ale i haba zay
And king Solomon chose workmen cut of all Israel, and the levy was of thirty thousand men.
14 vaho nampihitrife’e mb’e Lebanone mb’eo, rai-ale boa-bolañe ty nifandimbe, volañe raike e Lebanone añe naho roe volañe añ’ anjomba’e ao; i Adonirame ty nifehe i hàbay.
And he sent them to Libanus, ten thousand every month by turns, so that two months they were at home: and Adoniram was over this levy.
15 Fito-ale ty mpijiny kilanka’ i Selomò naho valo-ale ty namira am-bohitse añe;
And Solomon had seventy thousand to carry burdens, and eighty thousand to hew stones in the mountain:
16 mandikoatse izay o mpifehe’ i Selomò nifelek’ o fitoloñañeoo: telo-arivo-tsi-telon-jato ty nifeleke ondatio amo fitoloña’eo.
Besides the overseers who were over every work, in number three thousand, and three hundred that ruled over the people, and them that did the work.
17 Nandily t’i Selomò vaho nihaliañe vato jabajaba, vato soa, handranjiañe o mananta’ i anjombaio am-bato pinèke.
And the king commanded, that they should bring great stones, costly stones, for the foundation of the temple, and should square them:
18 Aa le rinamerame’ o mpandranji’ i Selomòo naho o mpamboa’ i Kirameo naho o nte-Gebaleo irezay, naho nañalankañe o hatae vaho vato nandranjiañe i anjombaio.
And the masons of Solomon, and the masons of Hiram hewed them: and the Giblians prepared timber and stones to build the house.
