1 Kings 5
1 Nígbà tí Hiramu ọba Tire sì gbọ́ pé, a ti fi òróró yan Solomoni ní ọba ní ipò Dafidi baba rẹ̀, ó sì rán àwọn ikọ̀ rẹ̀ sí Solomoni, nítorí ó ti fẹ́ràn Dafidi ní ọjọ́ rẹ̀ gbogbo.
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 Solomoni sì ránṣẹ́ yìí padà sí Hiramu pé,
Then Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:
3 “Ìwọ mọ̀ pé Dafidi baba mi kò le kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, nítorí ogun tí ó wà yí i káàkiri, títí Olúwa fi fi gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ sábẹ́ àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
“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 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi ti fún mi ní ìsinmi ní ibi gbogbo, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì sí ọ̀tá tàbí ìjàǹbá kan tí ó ṣe.
But now the Lord my God has given rest to me on all sides. And there is no adversary, nor occurrence of evil.
5 Nítorí náà mo gbèrò láti kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, bí Olúwa ti sọ fún Dafidi baba mi, nígbà tí ó wí pé, ‘Ọmọ rẹ tí èmi yóò gbé ka orí ìtẹ́ rẹ ní ipò rẹ ni yóò kọ́ ilé náà fún orúkọ mi.’
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 “Nítorí náà ni kí o pàṣẹ pé kí wọn kí ó gé igi kedari Lebanoni fún mi wá. Àwọn ènìyàn mi yóò ṣiṣẹ́ pẹ̀lú tìrẹ, Èmi yóò sì san owó ọ̀yà tí ìwọ bá ránṣẹ́ fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ. Ìwọ mọ̀ pé, a kò ní ẹnìkan nínú wa tí ó mọ bí a ti ń gé igi bí àwọn ará Sidoni.”
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 Nígbà tí Hiramu sì gbọ́ iṣẹ́ Solomoni, inú rẹ̀ sì dùn gidigidi, ó sì wí pé, “Ògo ni fún Olúwa lónìí, nítorí tí ó ti fún Dafidi ní ọlọ́gbọ́n ọmọ láti ṣàkóso àwọn ìlú ńlá yìí.”
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 Hiramu sì ránṣẹ́ sí Solomoni pé, “Èmi ti gbọ́ iṣẹ́ tí ìwọ rán sí mi, èmi yóò sì ṣe gbogbo èyí tí o fẹ́ ní pípèsè igi kedari àti ní ti igi firi.
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 Àwọn ènìyàn mi yóò mú igi náà sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti Lebanoni wá sí Òkun, èmi ó sì fi wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí ọ ní fífò lójú omi Òkun Ńlá títí dé ibi tí ìwọ ó na ìka sí fún mi. Níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti yà wọ́n sọ́tọ̀, ìwọ yóò sì kó wọn lọ. Ìwọ yóò sì gba ìfẹ́ mi nípa pípèsè oúnjẹ fún ilé mi.”
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 Báyìí ni Hiramu sì pèsè igi kedari àti igi firi tí Solomoni ń fẹ́ fún un,
And so, Hiram gave to Solomon cedar trees and spruce trees, in accord with his whole will.
11 Solomoni sì fún Hiramu ní ogún ẹgbẹ̀rún òsùwọ̀n ọkà oúnjẹ fún ilé rẹ̀, àti ogún òsùwọ̀n òróró dáradára. Solomoni sì ń tẹ̀síwájú láti ṣe èyí fún Hiramu lọ́dọọdún.
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 Olúwa sì fún Solomoni ní ọgbọ́n, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣèlérí fún un. Ìrẹ́pọ̀ àlàáfíà sì wà láàrín Hiramu àti Solomoni, àwọn méjèèjì sì ṣe àdéhùn.
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 Solomoni ọba sì ṣa asìnrú ènìyàn jọ ní gbogbo Israẹli; àwọn tí ń sìnrú náà jẹ́ ẹgbàá mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún ènìyàn.
And king Solomon chose workers from all of Israel, and the conscription was of thirty thousand men.
14 Ó sì rán wọn lọ sí Lebanoni, ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá lóṣooṣù, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n lo oṣù kan ní Lebanoni, wọn a sì gbé ilé ní oṣù méjì. Adoniramu ni ó ṣe olórí àwọn asìnrú náà.
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 Solomoni sì ní ẹgbẹ̀rún ní ọ̀nà àádọ́rin ènìyàn tí ń ru ẹrù àti ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́rin gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà lórí òkè,
And Solomon had seventy thousand of those who were carrying burdens, and eighty thousand of those who cut stones from the mountain,
16 àti àwọn ìjòyè nínú àwọn tí a fi ṣe olórí iṣẹ́ Solomoni jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rìndínlógún ó lé ọgọ́rùn-ún ènìyàn, tí ó ń ṣe aláṣẹ àwọn ènìyàn tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ náà.
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 Ọba sì pàṣẹ, wọ́n sì mú òkúta wá, òkúta iyebíye, àti òkúta gbígbẹ́ láti fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé náà lé ilẹ̀.
And the king ordered them to bring great stones, precious stones, for the foundation of the temple, and to square them.
18 Àwọn oníṣọ̀nà Solomoni àti Hiramu àti àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ láti Gebali sì gbẹ́ wọn, wọ́n sì pèsè igi àti òkúta láti fi kọ́ ilé náà.
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.
