< 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 king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever 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 knowest how that David my father could not build a house to the name of the LORD his God, for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD 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 the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.
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 to the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spoke to David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he 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.
Now therefore command thou, that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and to thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that [there is] not among us any that is skilled in hewing timber like 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.
And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] the LORD this day, who hath given to David a wise son over this great 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 considered the things which thou sentest to me for: [and] I will perform all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning 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 Lebanon to the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats to the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive [them]: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving 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 [according to] 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 measures of wheat [for] food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon 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 Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
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 to Lebanon ten thousand a month by courses; a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home. And Adoniram [was] over the levy.
15 I imaše Solomun sedamdeset tisuæa nosilaca i osamdeset tisuæa tesaèa u planini,
And Solomon had seventy thousand that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers 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 chief of Solomon's officers who [were] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
17 I zapovjedi car da snose veliko kamenje, skupocjeno kamenje za temelj domu, tesano kamenje.
And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.
18 I tesahu poslenici Solomunovi i poslenici Hiramovi i Givleji, i pripravljahu drvo i kamenje da se zida dom.
And Solomon's builders, and Hiram's builders did hew [them], and the stone-squarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
