¹It happened, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of Yahweh, and the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

¹Huan, hichi ahia, Solomon in Toupa in leh kumpipa in a lama Solomon in lunggulh taka a tup tengteng a hih khit vek nungin,

²that Yahweh appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

²Gibeon khuaa a kianga a kilak bangin Toupa Solomon kiangah a hong kilak nawn a.

³Yahweh said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication, that you have made before me. I have made this house holy, which you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

³Huan, Toupan a kiangah, na thumna leh na ngetna ka ma a na hontut te kana ngaikhia a: hiai na inlam khantawna ka min omsakna dingin ka hih siangthou ta hi; ka mit leh ka lungtang huailaiah khantawn in a omta ding hi.

⁴As for you, if you will walk before me, as David your father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances;

⁴Huan, nang leng thu ka honpiak peuhmah banga hih dinga na pa David om banga lungtang hoih tak pu leh lungsim diktak pu a ka mitmuh a na oma, ka thuseh te leh ka vaihawmte na pom thek a leh,

⁵then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, according as I promised to David your father, saying, ‘There shall not fail you a man on the throne of Israel.’

⁵Israel te tungah na gam laltutphah khawntawn a dingin ka hih kip ding; na pa David kianga, Israel te laltutphah a tu ding na tatlak kei ding, chia ka na chiamsa bangin.

⁶But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;

⁶Ahihhangin nang hiam in, na suante hiam in non zuih uh non kiksan ua, ka thupiak te leh ka thuseh te ka hon theihsak te na pom kei ua, Pathian dangte na nava sep ua, na biak u leh,

⁷then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all peoples.

⁷Israel te gam ka piak akipan ka hihmang dinga; huan, hiai inn ka min dinga ka hih siangthou sa ka mitmuh phaklouh ah ka suan mang ding; huchiin Israel te nam chihte lakah enghouna leh a se lam gentehna a zat a hong hi ding uh:

⁸Though this house is so high, yet shall everyone who passes by it be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, ‘Why has Yahweh done thus to this land, and to this house?’

⁸Huan, hiai in sang tawk leh leng, a kheng peuhmah in lamdang sa in a muk uh a tum ding ua, bangdia Toupan hiai gam leh hiai in hichi tela hih ade aw? A chi ding uh.

⁹and they shall answer, ‘Because they forsook Yahweh their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and worshiped them, and served them. Therefore Yahweh has brought all this evil on them.’”

⁹Huan, miten, Toupa a Pathian uh, a pute uh Aigupta gama kipana pikhe pa a paisan ua, Pathian dangte a let ua, a biak ua, a nate uh a sep jiak uh ahi; huaijiakin Toupan hiai siatna tengteng a tunguah a hontungsakta ahi, chiin a dawng ding uh, achia.

¹⁰It happened at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of Yahweh and the king’s house

¹⁰Huan, hichi ahi a, Solomonin in nih, TOUPA in leh kumpipa in a lam sung, kum sawmnih a bei nungin

¹¹(now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

¹¹(Tura kumpipa Hiramin Solomon sidar singte, meilah singte, dangkaengte a kul peuhmah a tupsak vek ahi a), kumpipa Solomonin Hiram bel Galili gama kho sawmnih a pia hi.

¹²Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they didn’t please him.

¹²Huan, Hiram bel Tura khua akipanin Solomonin a kho piakte en dingin a pawt khiaa; a deihlam ahi hetkei.

¹³He said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” He called them the land of Cabul to this day.

¹³Huan, aman, Unaupa aw, hiai na hon kho piakte bangchibang khua ahi maijen ua? a chi a. Huchiin tu tanin Kabul gam a chi uhi.

¹⁴Hiram sent to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold.

¹⁴Huan, Hiramin kumpipa dangkaeng talent ja leh sawmnih a khaka.

¹⁵This is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of Yahweh, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

¹⁵kumpipa Solomonin nasem dia a goih teitei pawl a bawlna sanpen hiai jiak ahi: Toupa in leh amah in lam ding leh Millo te, Jerusalem kulh te, hazor khua te, Megiddo khua te, Gezer khua te bawl dingin ahi.

¹⁶Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a portion to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

¹⁶Aigupta kumpipa Pharo a hoh tou a, Gezer khua a valaa, a hala, huai khuaa om Kanaante a thata, a tanu Solomon ji bel kikhakna thilpiak dingin a na pekhin hi.

¹⁷Solomon built Gezer, and Beth Horon the lower,

¹⁷Huan Solomonin Gezer khua te, Beth-haron khangnungjaw khua te,

¹⁸and Baalath, and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land,

¹⁸Baalath khua te, Israel gamdaia Tamar khua te,

¹⁹and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

¹⁹Solomonin thil koih khawmna khua a neih tengteng te, a kangtalai koihna khua te, Jerusalem khuaah te, Lebanon ah te a vaihawmna gamsung tengtenga Solomonin lunggulh taka bawl a tup tengtengte a bawl hi.

²⁰As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel;

²⁰Huan, Israel suante hi tei lou, Amorte, Hitte, Perizte, Jebuste om sun tengteng te;

²¹their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.

²¹A suan uh, huai gama om lai Israel suanten a hihman zoh vek theih louhte lakah Solomonin sikha, nasem dia goih teitei pawl a bawla, tutanin.

²²But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.

²²Israel suante bel Solomonin sikhain a bawl tei kei a: galkap mi te, a intekpa te, a mi lian te, a sepaih heutu te, a kangtalai leh a sakol tung tuang pawl heutute ahi jaw uhi.

²³These were the chief officers who were over Solomon’s work, five hundred fifty, who bore rule over the people who labored in the work.

²³Huaite Solomon nasep tunga heutu tuam, za nga leh sawmnga, nasep veng mite ahi uh.

²⁴But Pharaoh’s daughter came up out of the city of David to her house which Solomon had built for her: then he built Millo.

²⁴Pharo tanu bel David khopi akipan amah in, Solomonin a lam sak ah apai tou a: huchiin Millo a bawlta hi.

²⁵Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to Yahweh three times a year, burning incense with them, on the altar that was before Yahweh. So he finished the house.

²⁵huan, solomonin Toupa dinga a maitam bawl ah kum tengin thum vei halmanga thillat leh kilepna thil lat a lan jela, Toupa maa maitam ah gi, limte a hal tel jel hi. Huchiin in mansak a hita.

²⁶King Solomon made a navy of ships in Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds , in the land of Edom.

²⁶Huan, kumpipa Solomonin Edom gama Tuipi san gei Eloth china om Eziongeber munah long hon a bawl hi.

²⁷Hiram sent in the navy his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

²⁷Huan, Hiramin a sikha longmite, tuipia kiseksa, longa Solomon sikhate kiangah a sawl a.Huai mite Ophir ah a vahoh ua, huaia dangkaeng talent za li leh sawmnih a hon pua ua, kumpipa Solomon kiangah a hontun uh.

²⁸They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.

²⁸Huai mite Ophir ah a vahoh ua, huaia dangkaeng talent za li leh sawmnih a hon pua ua, kumpipa Solomon kiangah a hontun uh.
