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 room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover 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 knowest how that David my father could not build a house to the name of the LORD his God, for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD 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 the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.
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 to the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spoke to David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build a house to 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 hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and to thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that [there is] not among us any that is skilled in hewing 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] the LORD this day, who hath 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 considered the things which thou sentest to me for: [and] I will perform 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 convey them by sea in floats to the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive [them]: and thou shalt 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 cedar trees and fir trees [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 gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.
وَٱلرَّبُّ أَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانَ حِكْمَةً كَمَا كَلَّمَهُ. وَكَانَ صُلْحٌ بَيْنَ حِيرَامَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ، وَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا عَهْدًا. ١٢ 12
And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
وَسَخَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَتِ ٱلسُّخَرُ ثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ. ١٣ 13
And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy 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; a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home. And Adoniram [was] over the levy.
وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا يَحْمِلُونَ أَحْمَالًا، وَثَمَانُونَ أَلْفًا يَقْطَعُونَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، ١٥ 15
And Solomon had seventy thousand that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers in the mountains;
مَا عَدَا رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْوُكَلَاءِ لِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى ٱلْعَمَلِ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافٍ وَثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ، ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطِينَ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْعَامِلِينَ ٱلْعَمَلَ. ١٦ 16
Besides the chief of Solomon's officers who [were] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنْ يَقْلَعُوا حِجَارَةً كَبِيرَةً، حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً لِتَأْسِيسِ ٱلْبَيْتِ، حِجَارَةً مُرَبَّعَةً. ١٧ 17
And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.
فَنَحَتَهَا بَنَّاؤُو سُلَيْمَانَ، وَبَنَّاؤُو حِيرَامَ وَٱلْجِبْلِيُّونَ، وَهَيَّأُوا ٱلْأَخْشَابَ وَٱلْحِجَارَةَ لِبِنَاءِ ٱلْبَيْتِ. ١٨ 18
And Solomon's builders, and Hiram's builders did hew [them], and the stone-squarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
