1Ja Saalomon määras seitsekümmend tuhat meest kandjaiks, kaheksakümmend tuhat meest kiviraiujaiks mäestikus ja kolm tuhat kuussada, kes neid juhatasid.
1Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the name of Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom.
2Ja Saalomon läkitas ütlema Huuramile, Tüürose kuningale: 'Tee minule sedasama, mida sa tegid mu isale Taavetile, kellele sa saatsid seedripuid, et ta sai enesele ehitada koja, kus ta elas.
2Solomon counted out seventy thousand men to bear burdens, and eighty thousand men who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
3Vaata, mina tahan ehitada Issanda, oma Jumala nimele koja ja selle pühitseda temale, et tema ees suitsutada hästilõhnavaid suitsutusrohte, tuua igapäevaseid ohvrileibu ja põletusohvreid hommikul ja õhtul, hingamispäevil, noorkuupäevil ja Issanda, meie Jumala pühadel; see on Iisraelile igaveseks kohustuseks.
3Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, “As you dealt with David my father, and sent him cedars to build him a house in which to dwell, so deal with me.
4Ja koda, mille ma ehitan, peab olema suur, sest meie Jumal on suurem kõigist jumalaist!
4Behold, I am about to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God, to dedicate it to him, and to burn before him incense of sweet spices, and for the continual show bread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the set feasts of Yahweh our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.
5Aga kellel jätkuks jõudu temale koda ehitada? Sest taevad ja taevaste taevad ei mahuta teda! Ja kes olen siis mina, et ma tahan temale koja ehitada, kuigi ainult suitsutuseks tema ees?
5“The house which I build is great; for our God is great above all gods.
6Aga nüüd läkita mulle mees, kes oskab teha töid kullast, hõbedast, vasest ja rauast, purpurpunasest, karmiinpunasest ja sinisest lõngast, ja kes tunneb nikerdustööd, et ta töötaks Juudas ja Jeruusalemmas koos minu oskustöölistega, kes on hangitud mu isa Taaveti poolt.
6But who is able to build him a house, since heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain him? who am I then, that I should build him a house, except just to burn incense before him?
7Ja saada mulle seedripuid, küpressi- ja algumipuid Liibanonist, sest ma tean, et sinu sulased oskavad raiuda Liibanoni puid. Ja vaata, minu sulased olgu koos sinu sulastega!
7“Now therefore send me a man skillful to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and who knows how to engrave engravings, to be with the skillful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father provided.
8Mul on tarvis hankida palju puitu, sest koda, mille ma ehitan, peab olema suur ja imetlusväärne!
8“Send me also cedar trees, fir trees, and algum trees, out of Lebanon; for I know that your servants know how to cut timber in Lebanon: and behold, my servants shall be with your servants,
9Ja vaata, raiujaile, kes puid lõikavad, annan ma kakskümmend tuhat koori nisu, su sulastele toiduks, ja kakskümmend tuhat koori otri, kakskümmend tuhat batti veini ja kakskümmend tuhat batti õli!'
9even to prepare me timber in abundance; for the house which I am about to build shall be great and wonderful.
10Ja Huuram, Tüürose kuningas, vastas kirjaga, mille ta Saalomonile läkitas: 'Sellepärast, et Issand oma rahvast armastab, on ta sinu pannud neile kuningaks.'
10Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand measures of beaten wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.”
11Ja edasi ütles Huuram: 'Kiidetud olgu Issand, Iisraeli Jumal, kes on teinud taeva ja maa, kes on andnud kuningas Taavetile targa poja, kel on tarkust ja taipu, et ehitada Issandale koda ja iseenesele kuninglik koda!
11Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, “Because Yahweh loves his people, he has made you king over them.”
12Ja nüüd ma läkitan ühe targa ja aruka mehe, Huuram-Abi,
12Huram continued, “Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, that made heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, that should build a house for Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom.
13kes on Daani tütreist pärit naise poeg ja kelle isa on Tüürose mees. Tema oskab teha töid kullast, hõbedast, vasest, rauast, kivist ja puust, ja purpurpunasest, sinisest, valgest linasest ja karmiinpunasest lõngast. Ta oskab igasuguseid nikerdusi ja lahendab igasuguseid ülesandeid, mis temale antakse, koos sinu tarkadega ja minu isanda, sinu isa Taaveti tarkadega.
13Now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, of Huram my father’s,
14Saada siis nüüd oma sulastele nisu, otri, õli ja veini, nagu mu isand on lubanud.
14the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre, skillful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson, also to engrave any kind of engraving, and to devise any device; that there may be a place appointed to him with your skillful men, and with the skillful men of my lord David your father.
15Meie raiume siis Liibanonist puid, nõnda palju kui sul on vaja, ja me toome need sulle parvedena merd mööda Jaafosse. Sina vii need siis üles Jeruusalemma!'
15“Now therefore the wheat and the barley, the oil and the wine, which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants:
16Ja Saalomon luges ära kõik Iisraelimaal olevad võõrad mehed, pärast seda lugemist, mida tema isa Taavet oli toimetanud, ja neid leiti olevat sada viiskümmend kolm tuhat kuussada.
16and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you shall need; and we will bring it to you in floats by sea to Joppa; and you shall carry it up to Jerusalem.”
17Ja ta tegi neist seitsekümmend tuhat kandjaiks, kaheksakümmend tuhat kiviraiujaiks mäestikus ja kolm tuhat kuussada juhatajaiks, kes panid rahva tööle.
17Solomon numbered all the foreigners who were in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father had numbered them; and they were found one hundred fifty-three thousand six hundred.
18He set seventy thousand of them to bear burdens, and eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand six hundred overseers to set the people at work.
