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.
And Hiram the king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father; for Hiram had all the time been a lover of David.
2 A Solomun posla ka Hiramu i poruèi mu:
And 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.
Thou well knowest of David my father, that he was not able to build a house unto the name of the Lord his God, on account of the war wherewith his enemies encompassed him, until the Lord had put them under the soles of his feet.
4 A sada Gospod Bog moj dao mi je mir otsvuda, nemam nijednoga neprijatelja ni zle smetnje.
But now hath the Lord my God given me rest on every side, there is neither adversary nor evil hinderance.
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.
And, behold, I purpose to build a house unto the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord hath spoken unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will place in thy room upon thy throne, he it is that shall build the house unto 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.
And now command thou that they hew me cedar-trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants; and the wages of thy servants will I give unto thee in accordance with all that thou wilt say; for thou well knowest that there is not among us a man that hath the skill to hew timber like unto the Zidonians.
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.
And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly; and he said, Blessed be the Lord this day, who hath given unto David a 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 what thou hast sent to me for: I will gladly execute all thy desire in respect of timber of cedar, and in respect of timber of fir.
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 the Lebanon unto the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats unto the place of which thou wilt send me word, and I will cause them to be taken apart there, and thou shalt take them away; and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving the food for my household.
10 I tako davaše Hiram Solomunu drva kedrova i drva jelova, koliko mu bješe volja.
So Hiram gave Solomon cedar-trees and fir-trees, all his desire.
11 A Solomun davaše Hiramu dvadeset tisuæa kora pšenice za hranu èeljadi njegovoj, i dvadeset kora ulja cijeðenoga; toliko davaše Solomun Hiramu svake godine.
And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand kors of wheat as provision for his household, and twenty kors of beaten oil: thus did Solomon give to Hiram year by 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 unto Solomon, as he had spoken to him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they made a covenant with each other.
13 I odredi Solomun ljude iz svega Izrailja, i bi odreðenijeh trideset tisuæa ljudi.
And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was 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 the Lebanon, ten thousand in each month by turns; one month they used to be in the Lebanon, two months at home: and Adoniram was over the levy.
15 I imaše Solomun sedamdeset tisuæa nosilaca i osamdeset tisuæa tesaèa u planini,
And there belonged to Solomon seventy thousand bearers of burdens, and eighty thousand stone-cutters in the mountains;
16 Osim nastojnika Solomunovijeh, koji bijahu nad tijem poslom, tri tisuæe i trista, koji upravljahu narodom koji poslovaše taj posao.
Besides the chiefs who were appointed by Solomon over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people that wrought on the work.
17 I zapovjedi car da snose veliko kamenje, skupocjeno kamenje za temelj domu, tesano kamenje.
And when the king commanded, they quarried out great stones, heavy stones, to lay the foundation of the house, and hewn stones.
18 I tesahu poslenici Solomunovi i poslenici Hiramovi i Givleji, i pripravljahu drvo i kamenje da se zida dom.
And the builders of Solomon, and the builders of Hiram, and the Giblites hewed them; and so they prepared the wood and the stones to build the house.
