Luo Chronicle 2
1 Tokosra Solomon el wotela in musai sie tempul tuh in nien alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ac oayapa in musaela sie inkul fulat nu sel sifacna.
Now Solomon decided to build a house for the LORD’s name, and a house for his kingdom.
2 El sang itngoul tausin mwet in wun kufwen orekma, ac oalngoul tausin mwet in tufahl eot fineol uh. Mwet tolu tausin onfoko pa kol orekma sac.
Solomon counted out seventy thousand men to bear burdens, eighty thousand men who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
3 Solomon el supwala kas nu sel Tokosra Hiram lun acn Tyre ac fahk, “Nga ke kom in oru nu sik oana ke kom tuh oru nu sel Tokosra David, papa tumuk, ke kom tuh kukakin sak cedar nu sel elan sang musai inkul fulat sel ah.
Solomon 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.
4 Nga ac musai sie tempul in akfulatye LEUM GOD luk. Ac fah sie acn mutal, acn ma nga ac mwet luk ac fah alu nu sel we, ke kut akosak mwe keng ac ma wo fohlo, ac sang bread mutal nu sel ke pacl nukewa. Acn se inge kut ac fah oayapa esukak mwe kisa firir ke lotutang ac eku nukewa, oayapa ke len Sabbath ac Kufwa lun Malem Sasu ac len mutal saya, in akfulatye LEUM GOD lasr oana ke El sapkin nu sin mwet Israel tuh elos in oru nwe tok.
Behold, I am about to build a house for the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate it to him, to burn before him incense of sweet spices, for the continual show bread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts of the LORD our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.
5 Nga akoo in musaela sie tempul na lulap, mweyen God lasr El fulat liki god nukewa saya.
“The house which I am building will be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
6 Tusruktu wanginna sie mwet ac ku in musaela sie tempul sin God, mweyen finne ke yoklana lun acn inkusrao, tia ku in nwanulak. Ma sefanna nga ku in oru pa in orala sie acn in orek kisa nu sin God.
But 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?
7 Inge supwama sie mwet su yohk etu lal ke tufahl eot, ac orekma ke gold, silver, osra bronze, ac iron, oayapa el ku in orala tuhn wowo ke nuknuk tuh in folfol, sroninmutuk, ac srusra. Mwet se inge el ac wi mwet musa lun Judah ac Jerusalem su David, papa tumuk, el tuh sulela.
“Now therefore send me a man skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, and in purple, crimson, and blue, and who knows how to engrave engravings, to be with the skilful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father provided.
8 Nga etu lah yohk etu lun mwet lom ingan ke orekma ke sak. Ke ma inge supwama sak cedar, cypress, ac juniper Lebanon me. Nga akola in supwaot mwet luk inge in wi mwet lom,
“Send me also cedar trees, cypress trees, and algum trees out of Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut timber in Lebanon. Behold, my servants will be with your servants,
9 in akoela sak pukanten, mweyen tempul se nga ac musai uh ac arulana yohk ac wolana.
even to prepare me timber in abundance; for the house which I am about to build will be great and wonderful.
10 Nga ac supwaot siofok tausin bushel in wheat, siofok tausin bushel in barley, siofok singoul tausin gallon in wain, ac siofok singoul tausin gallon in oil in olive in kasru mwet orek sak lom ingan.”
Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of beaten wheat, twenty thousand baths of barley, twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.”
11 Tokosra Hiram el supwala leta se in topuk nu sel Solomon. El simusla kas inge: “Ke sripen LEUM GOD El lungse mwet lal, El oru tuh kom in tokosra faclos.
Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, “Because the LORD loves his people, he has made you king over them.”
12 Kaksakin LEUM GOD lun Israel, su orala kusrao ac faclu! El sang nu sel Tokosra David sie wen lalmwetmet, su yohk etauk ac usrnguk lal, su akola in musai sie tempul nu sin LEUM GOD, ac sie inkul fulat nu sel sifacna.
Huram continued, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, who would build a house for the LORD and a house for his kingdom.
13 Nga ac supwaot sie mwet orekma ke osra su arulana lalmwetmet ac usrnguk ke musa — inel pa Huram.
Now I have sent a skilful man, endowed with understanding, Huram-abi,
14 Nina kial ma in sruf lal Dan, ac papa tumal sie mwet Tyre. El ku in oru kutena ma ke gold, silver, bronze, osra, eot, ac sak. El ku pac in orala nuknuk ke tuhn folfol, sroninmutuk, ac srusra, oayapa nuknuk linen. El etu pac taflela kutena lumah ma mwet uh ac fahk nu sel. Lela elan wi mwet musa lom ingan, oayapa mwet orekma lal Tokosra David, papa tomom.
the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre. He is skilful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, in stone, in timber, in purple, in blue, 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 skilful men, and with the skilful men of my lord David your father.
15 Ke ma inge, supwama wheat, barley, wain, ac oil in olive ma kom wulela kac.
“Now therefore, the wheat, the barley, the oil, and the wine which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants;
16 In acn Lebanon kut ac fah pakela sak cedar nukewa ma kom enenu an, ac kapriya nu ke raft, ac pahkin nwe ke sun acn Joppa. Na mwet lom fah usla we lac nu Jerusalem.”
and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you need. We will bring it to you in rafts by sea to Joppa; then you shall carry it up to Jerusalem.”
17 Tokosra Solomon el orala sie oaoa lulap ke mwetsac nukewa su muta in acn lun Israel, oapana oaoa se ma David, papa tumal, el tuh orala. Pisen mwetsac muta we oasr ke mwet siofok lumngaul tolu tausin onfoko.
Solomon counted all the foreigners who were in the land of Israel, after the census with which David his father had counted them; and they found one hundred and fifty-three thousand and six hundred.
18 Na el sap itngoul tausin selos in wiwa, ac oalngoul tausin selos in fokfok eot fineol ah. El sulela mwet tolu tausin onfoko in liye orekma inge tuh in orekla wo.
He set seventy thousand of them to bear burdens, eighty thousand who were stone cutters in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to assign the people their work.
