1 Tuʻi 5
1 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kia Solomone; he naʻa ne fanongo ki heʻenau fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi ke fetongi ʻa ʻene tamai: he naʻe ʻofa maʻu pe ʻa Helami kia Tevita.
And Hiram King of Tyrus sent his seruants vnto Salomon, (for he had heard, that they had anoynted him King in the roume of his father) because Hiram had euer loued Dauid.
2 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Solomone kia Helami, ʻo pehē,
Also Salomon sent to Hiram, saying,
3 “ʻOku ke ʻilo naʻe ʻikai faʻa langa ʻe Tevita ko ʻeku tamai ha fale ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tau naʻa ne taʻomia ai mei he potu kotoa pē, kaeʻoua ke tuku ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki hono lalo ʻaofivaʻe.
Thou knowest that Dauid my father could not build an house vnto the Name of the Lord his God, for the warres which were about him on euery side, vntill the Lord had put them vnder the soles of his feete.
4 Ka ko eni kuo foaki kiate au ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua ʻae melino ʻi he potu kotoa pē, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fili pe ha meʻa tuʻutāmaki ʻe fai.
But now the Lord my God hath giuen me rest on euery side, so that there is neither aduersarie, nor euill to resist.
5 Pea vakai, ʻoku ou pehē ke langa ha fale ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamai, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ho ʻalo, ʻaia te u fakanofo ki ho nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke fetongi koe, ʻe langa ʻe ia ha fale ki hoku huafa.’
And beholde, I purpose to build an house vnto ye Name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spake vnto Dauid my father, saying, Thy sonne, whom I wil set vpon thy throne for thee, he shall build an house vnto my Name.
6 Pea ko ia foki ke ke fekau ke nau tāʻanga mai ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ko e sita mei Lepanoni; pea ʻe kautaha ʻa ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki: pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae totongi koeʻuhi ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo fakatatau ki ha meʻa te ke tala ʻe koe: he ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ha kakai ʻoku poto ʻi he fai ʻoe taʻanga ʻo hangē ko e kakai ʻa Saitoni.”
Now therefore commaund, that they hewe me cedar trees out of Lebanon, and my seruants shall be with thy seruants, and vnto thee will I giue the hire for thy seruants, according to all that thou shalt appoynt: for thou knowest that there are none among vs, that can hewe timber like vnto the Sidonians.
7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe Helami ki he ngaahi lea ʻa Solomone, naʻa ne fiefia ʻaupito ai, ʻo ne pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova he ʻaho ni, ʻaia kuo ne foaki kia Tevita ha ʻalo poto ke pule ki he kakai lahi ni.”
And when Hiram heard the wordes of Salomon, he reioyced greatly, and sayde, Blessed be the Lord this day, which hath giuen vnto Dauid a wise sonne ouer this mightie people.
8 Pea naʻe ʻave ʻae fekau ʻa Helami kia Solomone, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻaia naʻa ke fekau ai kiate au: te u fai ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke holi ki ai koeʻuhi ko e tāʻanga sita, pea koeʻuhi ko e tā ʻae ʻakau ko e paini.
And Hiram sent to Salomon, saying, I haue considered the things, for the which thou sentest vnto me, and will accomplish all thy desire, concerning the cedar trees and firre trees.
9 ʻE ʻohifo ia ʻe heʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki mei Lepanoni ki tahi: pea te u fetuku ia ʻi tahi ʻo taulani ki ha potu te ke fakahā mai, pea te u fekau ke tuku ia ʻi ai, pea te ke maʻu ia: pea te ke fai ki hoku loto, ʻi hoʻo tuku mai ʻae meʻakai ki hoku kaungā nofoʻanga.”
My seruants shall bring them downe from Lebanon to the sea: and I will conuey them by sea in raftes vnto the place that thou shalt shew me, and wil cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receiue them: nowe thou shalt doe mee a pleasure to minister foode for my familie.
10 Ko ia naʻe tuku ai ʻe Helami kia Solomone ʻae ngaahi ʻakau sita mo e ngaahi ʻakau paini ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻa ne holi ki ai.
So Hiram gaue Salomon cedar trees and firre trees, euen his full desire.
11 Pea naʻe ʻatu ʻe Solomone kia Helami ʻae fuaʻanga uite ʻe ua mano ko e meʻakai ki hono kaungā nofoʻanga, mo e fuaʻanga lolo lelei ʻe uofulu: naʻe pehē ʻae meʻa naʻe foaki ʻe Solomone kia Helami ʻi he taʻu taki taha.
And Salomon gaue Hiram twentie thousand measures of wheate for foode to his householde, and twentie measures of beaten oyle. Thus much gaue Salomon to Hiram yere by yere.
12 Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae poto kia Solomone, ʻo tatau mo ʻene talaʻofa kiate ia: pea naʻe nofo melino pe ʻa Helami, mo Solomone; pea naʻe fefuakavaʻaki ʻakinaua ni.
And the Lord gaue Salomon wisedome as he promised him. And there was peace betweene Hiram and Salomon, and they two made a couenant.
13 Pea naʻe pule ʻe Solomone ke fili mai ha kau tangata mei ʻIsileli kātoa; pea naʻe fili mai ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu mano.
And King Salomon raised a summe out of all Israel, and the summe was thirtie thousand men:
14 Pea naʻa ne fekau atu ʻakinautolu ki Lepanoni, ko e tokotaha mano ʻi he māhina ʻe taha ʻo fai fakahokohoko: ko e māhina ʻe taha naʻa nau ʻi Lepanoni, pea ko e māhina ʻe ua naʻa nau ʻi honau ʻapi: pea naʻe puleʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻe ʻAtonilami.
Whome he sent to Lebanon, ten thousand a moneth by course: they were a moneth in Lebanon, and two moneths at home. And Adoniram was ouer the summe.
15 Pea naʻe ʻia Solomone ʻae kakai ʻe toko fitu mano ke fetuku meʻa, mo e toko valu mano ke fai tāʻanga ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga;
And Salomon had seuentie thousand that bare burdens, and fourescore thousand masons in the mountaine,
16 Ka naʻe ʻikai lau ai ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻa Solomone ʻaia naʻe enginakiʻi ʻae ngāue, ko e toko tolu afe mo e toko tolungeau, ʻakinautolu naʻe pule ki he kakai naʻe fai ʻae ngāue.
Besides the princes, whome Salomon appoynted ouer the worke, euen three thousande and three hundreth, which ruled the people that wrought in the worke.
17 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi maka lalahi, mo e maka mahuʻinga, mo e maka naʻe tā, koeʻuhi ke fakatoka ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe fale.
And the King commanded them, and they brought great stones and costly stones to make the foundation of the house, euen hewed stones.
18 Pea naʻe tā ia ʻe he kau tufunga ʻa Solomone pea mo e kau tufunga ʻa Helami, pea mo e kakai Kipila: naʻe pehē ʻenau teuteu ʻae taʻanga ʻakau mo e ngaahi maka ke langaʻaki ʻae fale.
And Salomons workemen, and the workemen of Hiram, and the masons hewed and prepared timber and stones for the buylding of the house.
