1 Tuʻi 9

1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi ʻe Solomone ʻae langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo ia kotoa pē naʻe holi ki ai ʻa Solomone ke ne fai,

And it comes to pass, at Solomon’s finishing to build the house of YHWH, and the house of the king, and all the desire of Solomon that he delighted to do,

2 Naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kia Solomone ko hono liunga ua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene hā mai kiate ia ʻi Kipione.

that YHWH appears to Solomon a second time, as He appeared to him in Gibeon,

3 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Kuo u ongoʻi ʻa hoʻo lotu pea mo hoʻo kole, ʻaia kuo ke fai ʻi hoku ʻao: kuo u fakatapui ʻae fale ni ʻaia kuo ke langa, ke ʻai ki ai ʻa hoku huafa ʻo taʻengata; pea ʻe ʻi ai maʻuaipē ʻa hoku fofonga pea mo hoku loto.

and YHWH says to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication with which you have made supplication before Me; I have hallowed this house that you have built to put My Name there for all time, and My eyes and My heart have been there [for] all the days.

4 Pea kapau te ke ʻalu ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu ʻa Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, ʻi he loto moʻoni, mo e angatonu, ke fai ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe, pea ke tauhi ʻa ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau:

And you—if you walk before Me as your father David walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, [and] you keep My statutes and My judgments,

5 Pehē te u fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo ho puleʻanga ʻi ʻIsileli ke taʻengata, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku talaʻofa kia Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te ke masiva ʻi ha tangata maʻae nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli.

then I have established the throne of your kingdom over Israel for all time, as I spoke to your father David, saying, A man of yours is never cut off from [being] on the throne of Israel.

6 Ka koeʻuhi kapau te mou momoʻi liliu atu mei he muimui kiate au, ʻakimoutolu pe ko hoʻomou fānau, pea ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻaia kuo u fokotuʻu ʻi homou ʻao, ka mou ʻalu ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, mo lotu ki ai:

If you at all turn back—you and your sons—from after Me, and do not keep My commands [and] My statutes that I have set before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,

7 Te u toki motuhi ai ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ʻaia kuo u foaki kiate kinautolu; pea ko e fale ni, ʻaia kuo u fakatapui maʻa hoku huafa, te u liʻaki atu mei hoku ʻao; pea ʻe hoko ʻa ʻIsileli ko e manukiʻanga ʻi he lea fakatātā mo e lea fakakovikovi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai kotoa pē:

then I have cut off Israel from the face of the ground that I have given to them, and the house that I have hallowed for My Name I send away from My presence, and Israel has been for an allegory and for a byword among all the peoples;

8 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he fale ni, ʻoku māʻolunga ni, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ofi ki ai, ʻe ofo ai mo fakaʻiseʻisa; pea te nau pehē, ‘Ko e hā kuo fai pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ni, pea ki he fale ni?’

as for this house [that] is high, everyone passing by it is astonished, and has hissed, and they have said, Why has YHWH done this to this land and to this house?

9 Pea te nau tali mai, [ʻo pehē], ‘Koeʻuhi naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻenau ngaahi tamai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea kuo nau puke atu ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻo lotu ki ai, mo tauhi ki ai: ko ia kuo ʻomi ai ʻe Sihova ʻae kovi ni kotoa pē kiate kinautolu.’”

And they have said, Because that they have forsaken their God YHWH, who brought out their fathers from the land of Egypt, and they lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them and serve them; therefore YHWH has brought all this calamity on them.”

10 Pea hili ʻae taʻu ʻe uofulu naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻae langa ʻe Solomone ʻae fale ʻe ua, ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi,

And it comes to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon has built the two houses, the house of YHWH, and the house of the king.

11 (Ka kuo ʻatu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ko e sita kia Solomone, mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e paini, pea mo e koula, ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene holi, ) naʻe toki foaki ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kia Helami, ʻae kolo ʻe uofulu ʻi he fonua ʻo Kāleli.

Hiram king of Tyre has assisted Solomon with cedar-trees, and with fir-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire; then King Solomon gives to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

12 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Helami mei Taia ke ne mamata ki he ngaahi kolo naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe Solomone; pea naʻe ʻikai lelei ia ʻi hono ʻao.

And Hiram comes out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon has given to him, and they have not been right in his eyes,

13 Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae ngaahi kolo ni ʻaia kuo ke foaki kiate au, ʻa hoku kāinga?” Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko e fonua ko Kapuli ʻo aʻu mai ki he ngaahi ʻaho ni.

and he says, “What [are] these cities that you have given to me, my brother?” And one calls them the land of Cabul to this day.

14 Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Helami ki he tuʻi ʻae taleniti koula ʻe teau mo e uofulu.

And Hiram sends one hundred and twenty talents of gold to the king.

15 Pea ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻoe tukuhau ʻaia naʻe toʻo ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi; koeʻuhi ke langa ʻae fale ʻa Sihova, pea mo hono fale ʻoʻona, mo Milo, mo e ʻā ʻo Selūsalema, mo Hasoa, mo Mekito, pea mo Kesa.

And this [is] the matter of the tribute that King Solomon has lifted up, to build the house of YHWH, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer

16 He kuo ʻalu hake ʻa Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ʻo ne kapa ʻa Kesa, mo ne tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi, mo tāmateʻi ʻae kakai Kēnani naʻe nofo ʻi he kolo, pea ne foaki ia ko e meʻaʻofa ki hono ʻofefine, ko e uaifi ʻo Solomone.

(Pharaoh king of Egypt has gone up and captures Gezer, and burns it with fire, and he has slain the Canaanite who is dwelling in the city, and gives it [as] presents to his daughter, wife of Solomon).

17 Pea naʻe langa ʻa Kesa ʻe Solomone, pea mo Pete-holoni ki lalo,

And Solomon builds Gezer, and the lower Beth-Horon,

18 Mo Pealati, pea mo Tatimoa ʻi he toafa, ʻi he fonua,

and Ba‘alath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

19 Pea mo e ngaahi kolo tukunga koloa ʻaia naʻe maʻu ʻe Solomone, mo e ngaahi kolo maʻa ʻene ngaahi saliote, mo e ngaahi kolo maʻa ʻene kau tangata heka hoosi, pea mo ia naʻe fie langa ʻe Solomone ʻi Selūsalema, pea ʻi Lepanoni, pea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo hono puleʻanga.

and all the cities of stores that King Solomon has, and the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

20 Ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe toenga kakai ʻAmoli, mo e kakai Heti, mo e kakai Pelesi, mo e kakai Hevi, mo e kakai Sepusi, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli,

The whole of the people that is left of the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who [are] not of the sons of Israel—

21 Mo ʻenau fānau naʻe toe ʻi he fonua ki mui ʻiate kinautolu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa fakaʻauha foki ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko kinautolu ia naʻe maʻu mei ai ʻe Solomone ʻae tukuhau ʻi he ngāue fakahopoate ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.

their sons who are left behind them in the land, whom the sons of Israel have not been able to devote—he has even lifted up a tribute of service [on] them to this day.

22 Ka naʻe ʻikai fakahopoate ʻe Solomone ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ka ko e kautau ʻakinautolu, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea mo ʻene houʻeiki, mo ʻene kau pule [ki he tau], mo e kau pule ki heʻene ngaahi saliote, pea mo ʻene kau tangata heka hoosi.

And Solomon has not appointed a servant out of the sons of Israel, for they [are] the men of war, and his servants, and his heads, and his captains, and the heads of his chariots, and his horsemen.

23 Ko kinautolu naʻe tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he kau pule naʻe puleʻi ʻae ngāue kia Solomone, ko e toko nimangeau ma nimangofulu, pea naʻa nau pule ki he kakai naʻe fai ʻae ngāue.

These [are] the five hundred and fifty heads of the officers who [are] over the work of Solomon, those ruling among the people who are laboring in the work.

24 Ka naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Felo mei he Kolo ʻo Tevita ki hono fale ʻoʻona ʻaia naʻe langa moʻona: pea hili ia naʻa ne langa ʻa Milo.

Only, the daughter of Pharaoh went up out of the City of David to her house that [Solomon] built for her; then he built Millo.

25 Pea naʻe tuʻo tolu ʻi he taʻu ʻae ʻatu ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu mo e feilaulau fakamelino ʻi he feilaulauʻanga ʻaia naʻa ne fokotuʻu kia Sihova, pea naʻa ne tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻosi ʻae fale.

And Solomon caused burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend three times in a year on the altar that he built for YHWH, and he burned it as incense with that which [is] before YHWH, and finished the house.

26 Pea naʻe teuteu ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone ha folau ʻoe ngaahi vaka mei ʻEsioni-Kepa, ʻaia ʻoku vāofi mo ʻEloti, ʻi he matātahi ʻoe Tahi Kulokula, ʻi he fonua ko ʻItomi.

And King Solomon has made a navy in Ezion-Geber, that is beside Eloth, on the edge of the Sea of Suph, in the land of Edom.

27 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Helami ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi he folau, ko e kau toutai naʻe poto ʻi tahi, ke nau ʻalu mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone.

And Hiram sends his servants in the navy, shipmen knowing the sea, with servants of Solomon,

28 Pea naʻa nau hoko atu ki Ofeli, ʻonau taufetuku mei ai ʻae koula, ko e taleniti ʻe fāngeau mo e uofulu, ʻo mau ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi ko Solomone.

and they come to Ophir, and take four hundred and twenty talents of gold from there, and bring [it] to King Solomon.
