2 Tantara 2
1 Sinafiri’ i Selomò am’izao te ho ranjia’e anjomba ty tahina’ Iehovà vaho ty akibam-pifeheañe ho am-bata’e.
Now it was Solomon's purpose to put up a house for the name of the Lord and a house for himself as king.
2 Niahe’ i Selomò t’indaty fito-ale hijiny kilankañe naho valo-ale ty hihaly am-bohitse añe vaho telo-arivo-tsi-enenjato ty hisary iareo.
And Solomon had seventy thousand men numbered for transport, and eighty thousand for cutting stone in the mountains, and three thousand, six hundred as overseers.
3 Nañitrik’ amy Korame mpanjaka’ i Tsore t’i Selomò nanao ty hoe: Manahake ty nifañaoña’o amy Davide raeko, amy nañitrifa’o mendoraveñe handranjia’e anjomba himoneña’ey, ehe, ano ho ahy ka;
And Solomon sent to Huram, king of Tyre, saying, As you did for my father David, sending him cedar-trees for the building of his house,
4 oniño te hamboarako anjomba ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko, havaheñe ho aze, hañembohako rame mandrifondrifoñe añatrefa’e naho handaharañe o mofo-piatrekeo nainai’e naho hisoroñañe boa-maraiñe naho hariva, amo Sabatao naho amo pea-bolañeo naho amo andro namantaña’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika ho fañè nainai’e am’ Israeleo.
See! I am building a house for the name of the Lord my God, to be made holy to him, where perfumes of sweet spices will be burned before him, and the holy bread will be placed at all times, and burned offerings will be offered morning and evening, on the Sabbaths and at the new moons, and on the regular feasts of the Lord our God. This is a law for ever to Israel.
5 Le ho jabajaba ty anjomba ho ranjieko ho Aze amy te jabahinake te amo fonga ndrahareo t’i Andrianañaharentika.
And the house which I am building is to be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
6 Fa ia ty hahafamboatse anjomba ho ama’e kanao tsy tsahatse aze o likerañeo naho ty tane toy? Aa le ia v’o aho te handranjy anjomba ho aze naho tsy t’ie hisoroñe añ’ atrefa’eo?
But who may have strength enough to make a house for him, seeing that the heaven and the heaven of heavens are not wide enough to be his resting-place? who am I then to make a house for him? But I am building it only for the burning of perfume before him.
7 Ie amy zao, ehe ampisangitrifo ondaty mahimban-tsata hitoloñe volamena naho volafoty naho torisike naho viñe, naho malo-mavo naho mena mañabarà naho manga vaho mahimbañe mahafanokitse amy ze karazan-tsokitse iaby, hindreza’e am’ondaty mahimbañe nampihentseñen-draeko Davideo e Iehodà atoy naho e Ierosalaime atoa.
So now send me an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron? in purple and red and blue, and in the cutting of all sorts of ornament, to be with the expert workmen who are here in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom my father David got together.
8 Añitrifo mendoraveñe ka naho haradranto naho hazombatango, boake Lebanone añe; fa apotako te mavitrike mahafira ty hatae’ i Lebanone o mpitoro’oo: vaho ingo o mpitorokoo hindre amo mpitoro’oo,
And send me cedar-trees, cypress-trees and sandal-wood from Lebanon, for, to my knowledge, your servants are expert wood-cutters in Lebanon; and my servants will be with yours,
9 hampihentseñañe hatae maro; amy te ho jabajaba naho fanjàka i anjomba hamboarekoy.
To get trees for me in great numbers, for the house which I am building is to be great and a wonder.
10 Aa le ingo hatoloko amo mpitoro’o mpamira hataeo, ty vare-bolè lisañe ro’alen-kore naho vare-hordea ro’alen-kore naho zonjòn-divay ro’alem-bate naho dabakera menake ro’alem-bate.
And I will give as food to your servants, the wood-cutters, twenty thousand measures of grain, and twenty thousand measures of barley and twenty thousand measures of wine and twenty thousand measures of oil.
11 Aa le nanoiñe an-tsokitse t’i Korame mpanjaka’ i Tsore vaho nahitri’e amy Selomò: Kanao kokoa’ Iehovà ondati’eo le Ihe ty nanoe’e mpanjaka’e.
Then Huram, king of Tyre, sent Solomon an answer in writing, saying, Because of his love for his people the Lord has made you king over them.
12 Tinovo’ i Korame ty hoe: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, Andrianamboatse o likerañeo naho ty tane toy, ie nanolotse amy Davide mpanjaka ty anake mahihitse, nitoloran-kilala naho faharendrehañe, handranjia’e anjomba Iehovà naho anjomba i fifehea’ey.
And Huram said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, maker of heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, full of wisdom and good sense, to be the builder of a house for the Lord and a house for himself as king.
13 Ingo te hañitrifako ondaty mahilala, mahimban-tsata, toe i Korame mpialom-pitsenekoy,
And now I am sending you a wise and expert man, Huram who is as my father,
14 anan-drakemba amo anak’ ampela’ i Daneo, ty rae’e nte-Tsore, mahimban-tsata am-bolamena naho volafoty, torisike, viñe, vato naho hatae vaho ami’ty malòmavo naho manga naho leny marerarera naho ami’ty mena mañabasà; naho ty hanokitse amy ze hene karazan-tsokitse, handranjy ze haraotse iaby; hanoe’e ze apoke aolo’e eo, mindre am’ ondaty mahimba’oo vaho amo mpiamy talèko Davide rae’oio.
The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father was a man of Tyre, an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron, in stone and wood, in purple and blue and fair linen and red, trained in the cutting of every sort of ornament and the invention of every sort of design; let him be given a place among your expert workmen and those of my lord, your father David.
15 Le i vare-bolè naho vare-hordea naho menake naho divay nisaontsien-talèkoy, le ampañitrifo amo mpitoro’oo,
So now let my lord send to his servants the grain and the oil and the wine as my lord has said;
16 vaho hamira hatae boak’e Lebanone atoy zahay, ty hamaro paia’o; le hendese’ay hihafo mb’andriake mb’e Iopà añe, le Ihe ty hinday aze mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And we will have wood cut from Lebanon, as much as you have need of, and will send it to you on flat boats by sea to Joppa, and from there you may take it up to Jerusalem.
17 Vinolili’ i Selomò ze hene renetane an-tane Israeleo, ty amy famoliliañe nanoe’ i Davide iareoy, le nahatendreke rai-hetse-tsi-lime-ale-tsi-telo-arivo-tsi-enenjato.
Then Solomon took the number of all the men from strange lands who were living in Israel, as his father David had done; there were a hundred and fifty-three thousand, six hundred.
18 Le tinendre’e ho mpijiny ty valo-ale naho mpihali-vato am-bohitse ey ty fito-ale vaho mpisary hanoro asa am’irezay ty telo-arivo-tsi-enen-jato.
Seventy thousand he put to the work of transport, eighty thousand to cutting stone in the mountains, and three thousand, six hundred as overseers to put the people to work.
