1 Kraljevima 5
1 I Hiram car Tirski posla sluge svoje k Solomunu èuvši da su ga pomazali za cara na mjesto oca njegova, jer Hiram ljubljaše Davida svagda.
Hiram, the king of Tyre, also sent his servants to Solomon. For he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father. Now Hiram had been a friend to David the entire time.
2 A Solomun posla ka Hiramu i poruèi mu:
Then Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:
3 Ti znaš da David otac moj nije mogao sagraditi doma imenu Gospoda Boga svojega od ratova kojima ga opkoliše, dokle ih Gospod ne položi pod noge njegove.
“You know the will of my father David, and that he was not able to build a house to the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars that were imminent all around him, until the Lord set them under the steps of his feet.
4 A sada Gospod Bog moj dao mi je mir otsvuda, nemam nijednoga neprijatelja ni zle smetnje.
But now the Lord my God has given rest to me on all sides. And there is no adversary, nor occurrence of evil.
5 Zato, evo, velim da sagradim dom imenu Gospoda Boga svojega, kao što je rekao Gospod Davidu ocu mojemu govoreæi: sin tvoj, kojega æu posaditi mjesto tebe na prijesto tvoj, on æe sagraditi dom imenu mojemu.
For this reason, I intend to build a temple to the name of the Lord my God, just as the Lord spoke to my father David, saying: ‘Your son, whom I will set in your place, upon your throne, he himself shall build a house to my name.’
6 Zato zapovjedi sada neka mi nasijeku drva kedrovijeh na Livanu, a sluge æe moje biti sa slugama tvojim, a platu slugama tvojim daæu ti kako god reèeš; jer ti znaš da u nas nema ljudi koji umiju sjeæi drva kao Sidonci.
Therefore, order that your servants may cut down for me cedars from Lebanon. And let my servants be with your servants. Then I will give to you, for the wages of your servants, whatever you will ask. For you know that there is not a man among my people who knows how to cut wood as well as the Sidonians.”
7 I kad Hiram èu rijeèi Solomunove, obradova se veoma i reèe: da je blagosloven Gospod danas, koji dade Davidu mudra sina nad onijem narodom velikim.
Therefore, when Hiram had heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced greatly, and he said, “Blessed be the Lord God this day, who gave to David a very wise son over this numerous people!”
8 I posla Hiram Solomunu, i poruèi: èuo sam èega radi si slao k meni; ja æu uèiniti svu volju tvoju za drva kedrova i za drva jelova.
And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying: “I have heard the things that you would entrust to me. And I will do your whole will concerning the cedar trees and spruce trees.
9 Moje æe sluge snijeti s Livana na more, i ja æu ih povezati u splavove i spustiti morem do mjesta koje mi kažeš, i ondje æu razvezati, pa ih nosi; a ti æeš uèiniti moju volju i dati hranu èeljadi mojoj.
My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. And I will arrange them together as rafts on the sea, as far as the place that you will indicate to me. And I will land them there, and you will take them. And you shall offer to me what is necessary to give food to my house.”
10 I tako davaše Hiram Solomunu drva kedrova i drva jelova, koliko mu bješe volja.
And so, Hiram gave to Solomon cedar trees and spruce trees, in accord with his whole will.
11 A Solomun davaše Hiramu dvadeset tisuæa kora pšenice za hranu èeljadi njegovoj, i dvadeset kora ulja cijeðenoga; toliko davaše Solomun Hiramu svake godine.
Then Solomon offered to Hiram twenty thousand cor of wheat, as food for his house, and twenty cor of the purest oil. These things Solomon gave as a tribute to Hiram every year.
12 I Gospod dade mudrost Solomunu kako mu bješe obrekao, i bješe mir izmeðu Hirama i Solomuna, i uhvatiše vjeru meðu sobom.
And the Lord gave wisdom to Solomon, just as he said to him. And there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two struck a pact.
13 I odredi Solomun ljude iz svega Izrailja, i bi odreðenijeh trideset tisuæa ljudi.
And king Solomon chose workers from all of Israel, and the conscription was of thirty thousand men.
14 I slaše ih na Livan po deset tisuæa svakoga mjeseca naizmjence; jedan mjesec bijahu na Livanu, a dva mjeseca kod kuæa svojih. A Adoniram bješe nad ovijem poslenicima.
And he sent them into Lebanon, ten thousand each month, in turns, so that for two months they were in their own houses. And Adoniram was over this type of conscription.
15 I imaše Solomun sedamdeset tisuæa nosilaca i osamdeset tisuæa tesaèa u planini,
And Solomon had seventy thousand of those who were carrying burdens, and eighty thousand of those who cut stones from the mountain,
16 Osim nastojnika Solomunovijeh, koji bijahu nad tijem poslom, tri tisuæe i trista, koji upravljahu narodom koji poslovaše taj posao.
aside from the commanders who were over each work, in number three thousand and three hundred, who gave orders to the people and to those who were doing the work.
17 I zapovjedi car da snose veliko kamenje, skupocjeno kamenje za temelj domu, tesano kamenje.
And the king ordered them to bring great stones, precious stones, for the foundation of the temple, and to square them.
18 I tesahu poslenici Solomunovi i poslenici Hiramovi i Givleji, i pripravljahu drvo i kamenje da se zida dom.
And these were shaped by the stoneworkers of Solomon and the stoneworkers of Hiram. And the men of Gebal also prepared the wood and the stones in order to build the house.
