وَأَرْسَلَ حِيرَامُ مَلِكُ صُورَ عَبِيدَهُ إِلَى سُلَيْمَانَ، لِأَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَّهُمْ مَسَحُوهُ مَلِكًا مَكَانَ أَبِيهِ، لِأَنَّ حِيرَامَ كَانَ مُحِبًّا لِدَاوُدَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ١ 1
And Hiram 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 devotee of David.
فَأَرْسَلَ سُلَيْمَانُ إِلَى حِيرَامَ يَقُولُ: ٢ 2
And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
«أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ دَاوُدَ أَبِي أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ بَيْتًا لِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْحُرُوبِ ٱلَّتِي أَحَاطَتْ بِهِ، حَتَّى جَعَلَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ تَحْتَ بَطْنِ قَدَمَيْهِ. ٣ 3
Thou know how that David my father could not build a house for the name of Jehovah his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until Jehovah put them under the soles of his feet.
وَٱلْآنَ فَقَدْ أَرَاحَنِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْجِهَاتِ فَلَا يُوجَدُ خَصْمٌ وَلَا حَادِثَةُ شَرٍّ. ٤ 4
But now Jehovah my God has given me rest on every side; there is neither adversary, nor evil occurrence.
وَهَأَنَذَا قَائِلٌ عَلَى بِنَاءِ بَيْتٍ لِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِي كَمَا كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ دَاوُدَ أَبِي قَائِلًا: إِنَّ ٱبْنَكَ ٱلَّذِي أَجْعَلُهُ مَكَانَكَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ هُوَ يَبْنِي ٱلْبَيْتَ لِٱسْمِي. ٥ 5
And, behold, I purpose to build a house for the name of Jehovah my God, as Jehovah spoke to David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy place, he shall build the house for my name.
وَٱلْآنَ فَأْمُرْ أَنْ يَقْطَعُوا لِي أَرْزًا مِنْ لُبْنَانَ، وَيَكُونُ عَبِيدِي مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ، وَأُجْرَةُ عَبِيدِكَ أُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا تَقُولُ، لِأَنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بَيْنَنَا أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ قَطْعَ ٱلْخَشَبِ مِثْلَ ٱلصِّيْدُونِيِّينَ». ٦ 6
Now therefore command thou that they cut for me cedar trees out of Lebanon. And my servants shall be with thy servants. And I will give thee wages for thy servants according to all that thou shall say, for thou know that there is not among us any that knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ حِيرَامُ كَلَامَ سُلَيْمَانَ، فَرِحَ جِدًّا وَقَالَ: «مُبَارَكٌ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَى دَاوُدَ ٱبْنًا حَكِيمًا عَلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ». ٧ 7
And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed be Jehovah this day, who has given to David a wise son over this great people.
وَأَرْسَلَ حِيرَامُ إِلَى سُلَيْمَانَ قَائِلًا: «قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَا أَرْسَلْتَ بِهِ إِلَيَّ. أَنَا أَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَسَرَّتِكَ فِي خَشَبِ ٱلْأَرْزِ وَخَشَبِ ٱلسَّرْوِ. ٨ 8
And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have heard that which thou have sent to me. I will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
عَبِيدِي يُنْزِلُونَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ لُبْنَانَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَأَنَا أَجْعَلُهُ أَرْمَاثًا فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي تُعَرِّفُنِي عَنْهُ وَأَنْفُضُهُ هُنَاكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَحْمِلُهُ، وَأَنْتَ تَعْمَلُ مَرْضَاتِي بِإِعْطَائِكَ طَعَامًا لِبَيْتِي». ٩ 9
My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon to the sea. And I will make them into rafts to go by sea to the place that thou shall appoint me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and thou shall receive them. And thou shall accomplish my desire in giving food for my household.
فَكَانَ حِيرَامُ يُعْطِي سُلَيْمَانَ خَشَبَ أَرْزٍ وَخَشَبَ سَرْوٍ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَسَرَّتِهِ. ١٠ 10
So Hiram gave Solomon timber of cedar and timber of fir according to all his desire.
وَأَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانُ حِيرَامَ عِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ كُرِّ حِنْطَةٍ طَعَامًا لِبَيْتِهِ، وَعِشْرِينَ كُرَّ زَيْتِ رَضٍّ. هَكَذَا كَانَ سُلَيْمَانُ يُعْطِي حِيرَامَ سَنَةً فَسَنَةً. ١١ 11
And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil; thus Solomon gave to Hiram year by year.
وَٱلرَّبُّ أَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانَ حِكْمَةً كَمَا كَلَّمَهُ. وَكَانَ صُلْحٌ بَيْنَ حِيرَامَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ، وَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا عَهْدًا. ١٢ 12
And Jehovah gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him. And there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two made a league together.
وَسَخَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَتِ ٱلسُّخَرُ ثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ. ١٣ 13
And king Solomon raised a conscription out of all Israel, and the conscription was thirty thousand men.
فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ إِلَى لُبْنَانَ عَشْرَةَ آلَافٍ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ بِٱلنَّوْبَةِ. يَكُونُونَ شَهْرًا فِي لُبْنَانَ وَشَهْرَيْنِ فِي بُيُوتِهِمْ. وَكَانَ أَدُونِيرَامُ عَلَى ٱلتَّسْخِيرِ. ١٤ 14
And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses. They were in Lebanon a month, and at home two months. And Adoniram was over the men subject to task work.
وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا يَحْمِلُونَ أَحْمَالًا، وَثَمَانُونَ أَلْفًا يَقْطَعُونَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، ١٥ 15
And Solomon had seventy thousand who bore burdens, and eighty thousand who were hewers in the mountains,
مَا عَدَا رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْوُكَلَاءِ لِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى ٱلْعَمَلِ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافٍ وَثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ، ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطِينَ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْعَامِلِينَ ٱلْعَمَلَ. ١٦ 16
besides Solomon's chief officers who were over the work: three thousand and three hundred who bore rule over the people that labored in the work.
وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنْ يَقْلَعُوا حِجَارَةً كَبِيرَةً، حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً لِتَأْسِيسِ ٱلْبَيْتِ، حِجَارَةً مُرَبَّعَةً. ١٧ 17
And the king commanded, and they hewed out great stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with shaped stone.
فَنَحَتَهَا بَنَّاؤُو سُلَيْمَانَ، وَبَنَّاؤُو حِيرَامَ وَٱلْجِبْلِيُّونَ، وَهَيَّأُوا ٱلْأَخْشَابَ وَٱلْحِجَارَةَ لِبِنَاءِ ٱلْبَيْتِ. ١٨ 18
And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders and the Gebalites fashioned them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
