1Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the place of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.
1Huan, Tura kumpipa Hiramin Solomon kiangah amite a sawla; a pa munah kumpipa dingin amah sathau a nilh uh chih lah a naja ngala; Hiram lah David it gigepa ahi hima.
2Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
2Huan, Solomonin Hiram kiangah.
3“You know how that David my father could not build a house for the name of Yahweh his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until Yahweh put them under the soles of his feet.
3Ka pa David in Toupan a khepek nuaia a koih masiah a kim a vela mun chih mual chiha kidounate jiakin Toupa a Pathian min dingin in a lam theikei chih na thei thei a
4But now Yahweh my God has given me rest on every side. There is neither adversary, nor evil occurrence.
4Tuin bel Toupa ka Pathianin munchih mualchihah muanna a honna nei sakta a; melmate a om nawn kei ua, vangsiatna leng a om sam kei.
5Behold, I purpose to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God, as Yahweh spoke to David my father, saying, ‘Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build the house for my name.’
5Huan, ngai dih, Toupan ka pa David kiangah, Na tapa, na sikha na laltutphah ka luahsak dingin ka min adin in a honlam ding, chia a na gensa bangin, Toupa ka Pathianmin dinga in lam ka tum hi.
6Now therefore command that they cut me cedar trees out of Lebanon. My servants shall be with your servants; and I will give you wages for your servants according to all that you shall say. For you know that there is not among us any who knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.”
6Huchiin, Lebanon tanga sidar singte honphuk sak dingin thu pia inla, ka sikhate leng na sikhate lakah a hongtel tei ding uh; huan, na sikhate loh a hihleh na chih peuhmah bangin ka honpe jel ding: Zidon mite banga sing phuk siam ka lak uah kuamah a om kei uh chih na thei ngala, chiin ma a sawla.
7It happened, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, “Blessed is Yahweh this day, who has given to David a wise son over this great people.”
7Huan, hichi ahi a, Hiramin Solomon thu a jakin a kipak mahmah a, Hiai mi tampi tunga vaihawm dinga tapa pil tak David pepa Toupa tuniin phatin om hen, achia.
8Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, “I have heard the message which you have sent to me. I will do all your desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
8Huan, Hiramin Solomon kiangah, na hon thukhah ka naja a; sidar sing thu leh meilah sing thu na deih peuhmah kana hih ding.
9My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. I will make them into rafts to go by sea to the place that you shall appoint me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and you shall receive them. You shall accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.”
9Ka sikhaten Lebanon tang a kipanin tuipa phain a honla suk ding uh; Huan, non mun seh saka tuipia tolh dingin ka gak lom sakdinga, huan, huai laiah ka phel sak dinga, nang nana la ding hi: huan, nang leng ka inkote nek ding tumin ka deih non awnghuksak tei ding a kei deh, chiin mi a sawl hi.
10So Hiram gave Solomon timber of cedar and timber of fir according to all his desire.
10Huchiin, Hiramin sidar sing leh meilah sing Solomon a deih peuhmah a piaa.
11Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil. Solomon gave this to Hiram year by year.
11Huan, Solomonin Hiram bel a inkote nek dingin buh pota sing nih leh sathau suk pota sawmnih a pia: huai bel Solomonin kum tenga Hiram a piak sek dan ahi.
12Yahweh gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a treaty together.
12Huan, Toupan achiam bang takin Solomon pilna a piaa: huan, Hiram leh Solomon kalah kilemna aoma; a nih un thu a khung uh.
13King Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
13Huan, kumpipa Solomonin Israelte tengteng laka mi nasem dinga goih teitei pawl a bawla; goih teitei pawl mi sing thum ahi uh.
14He 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 men subject to forced labor.
14Lebanon ah kha khata kikheng jelin sing kha a sawl jela; kha khat Lebanon ah a om ua, kha nih amau inlamah: Adoniram bel nasem dia goih teiteite heutu a hi
15Solomon had seventy thousand who bore burdens, and eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains;
15Huan, Solomonin thil po mi sing sagih leh, suangsek mi sing giat tang khawngah a neia;
16besides Solomon’s chief officers who were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who bore rule over the people who labored in the work.
16Huaite sim louin Solomonin a nasep tunga heutu tuam mawng, nasep vengmi sang thum leh za thum anei lai hi.
17The king commanded, and they cut out great stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with worked stone.
17Huan, kumpipa thupiakin in suangphum suang seksaa lep dingin suang lian pipi, suangman tam pipi a hon pua uh.Huan, inlammite, Solomon mite leh Hiram mite leh Gebal miten suangte a sek ua, a in lamna ding un sing leh suangte a bawl uh..
18Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders and the Gebalites cut them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
18Huan, inlammite, Solomon mite leh Hiram mite leh Gebal miten suangte a sek ua, a in lamna ding un sing leh suangte a bawl uh..
