1 Kings 5
1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon: for he heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram had always been David’s friend.
Tango Irami, mokonzi ya Tiri, ayokaki sango ete bapakolaki Salomo mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi mpo na kokitana na Davidi, tata na ye, atindaki bantoma epai ya Salomo, pamba te azalaki tango nyonso molingami ya Davidi.
2 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:
Salomo azongiselaki Irami maloba oyo:
3 Thou knowest the will of David my father, and that he could not build a house to the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars that were round about him, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.
— Oyebi malamu ete Davidi, tata na ngai, alongaki te kotonga Ndako mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na ye, likolo ya bitumba oyo azalaki na yango na bikolo oyo ezingelaki ye, kino tango Yawe atiaki bikolo yango na se ya matambe na ye.
4 But now the Lord my God hath given me rest round about: and there is no adversary nor evil occurrence.
Kasi sik’oyo, Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, apesi ngai bopemi na bangambo nyonso, mpe ezali lisusu na monguna moko te mpe na likambo moko te oyo ekoki kobangisa ngai.
5 Wherefore I purpose to build a temple to the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spoke to David my father, saying: my son, whom I will set upon the throne in thy piece, he shall build a house to my name.
Sik’oyo, nazwi mokano ya kotonga Ndako mpo na lokumu ya Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, ndenge Yawe alobaki na Davidi, tata na ngai: « Ezali mwana na yo ya mobali oyo nakovandisa na kiti na yo ya bokonzi mpo na kokitana na yo nde akotonga Ndako mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai. »
6 Give orders therefore that thy servants cut me down cedar trees out of Libanus, and let my servants be with thy servants: and I will give thee the hire of thy servants whatsoever thou wilt ask, for thou knowest how there is not among my people a man that has skill to hew wood like to the Sidonians.
Boye, pesa mitindo ete bakatela ngai banzete ya sedele ya Libani. Basali na ngai bakosunga basali na yo, mpe ngai nakofuta yo lifuti oyo okokata mpo na basali na yo, pamba te oyebi malamu ete ezali na bato te kati na biso oyo bayebi kokata banzete lokola bino, bato ya Sidoni.
7 Now when Hiram had heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced exceedingly, and said: Blessed be the Lord God this day, who hath given to David a very wise son over this numerous people.
Tango Irami ayokaki maloba ya Salomo, asepelaki na yango makasi mpe alobaki: — Tika ete Yawe apambolama, Ye oyo apesaki Davidi mwana oyo atondi na bwanya mpo na kokamba ekolo monene oyo!
8 And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying: I have heard all thou hast desired of me: and I will do all thy desire concerning cedar trees, and fir trees.
Irami atindelaki Salomo eyano oyo: — Nayambaki maloba oyo otindelaki ngai mpe nakosala nyonso oyo ozali na yango posa: banzete ya sedele mpe ya sipele.
9 My servants shall bring them down from Libanus to the sea: and I will put them together in floats in the sea, and convey them to the place, which thou shalt signify to me; and will land them there, and thou shalt receive them: and thou shalt allow me necessaries, to furnish food for my household.
Basali na ngai bakomema banzete yango wuta na Libani kino na ebale monene, bakokangisa yango na basinga mpo na kotinda yango na nzela ya ebale monene; mpe nakosala ete ekoma kino na esika oyo okoyebisa ngai. Kuna nde nakofungola yango basinga; mpe yo, okoki kozwa mpe komema yango. Kasi yo, okokokisa posa na ngai oyo: okobanda kopesa basali ya ndako na ngai bilei.
10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees, and fir trees, according to all his desire.
Irami apesaki epai ya Salomo banzete ya sedele mpe ya sipele nyonso oyo azalaki na yango na bosenga.
11 And Solomon allowed Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat, for provision for his house, and twenty measures of the purest oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram every year.
Salomo mpe, na ngambo na ye, azalaki kopesa mobu na mobu epai ya Irami batone nkoto motoba ya ble, balitele nkoto libwa ya mafuta ya olive ya kitoko koleka, mpo na ndako ya mokonzi.
12 And the Lord gave wisdom to Solomon, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they two made a league together.
Yawe apesaki Salomo bwanya kolanda elaka oyo apesaki ye. Boye, kimia ezalaki kati na Irami mpe Salomo, mpe bango mibale basalaki boyokani.
13 And king Solomon chose workmen cut of all Israel, and the levy was of thirty thousand men.
Mokonzi Salomo azwaki kati na Isalaele mobimba bato nkoto tuku misato mpo na kosala misala makasi.
14 And he sent them to Libanus, ten thousand every month by turns, so that two months they were at home: and Adoniram was over this levy.
Akabolaki bango na masanga misato ya bato nkoto zomi: babandaki kosala sanza moko, na Libani, mpe basanza mibale na ndako; lisanga moko sima na mosusu. Adonirami azalaki mokambi ya bato ya misala makasi.
15 And Solomon had seventy thousand to carry burdens, and eighty thousand to hew stones in the mountain:
Salomo azwaki lisusu na mosala bato nkoto tuku sambo mpo na komema mikumba, bato nkoto tuku mwambe mpo na kopasola mabanga kati na ngomba;
16 Besides the overseers who were over every work, in number three thousand, and three hundred that ruled over the people, and them that did the work.
mpe bakambi ya misala, nkoto misato na nkama misato, bazalaki kolandela misala na bokambami ya bakonzi ya misala ya Salomo.
17 And the king commanded, that they should bring great stones, costly stones, for the foundation of the temple, and should square them:
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo ete bapasola mabanga minene mpe ya kitoko mpo na kosalela yango moboko ya Tempelo.
18 And the masons of Solomon, and the masons of Hiram hewed them: and the Giblians prepared timber and stones to build the house.
Basali ya Salomo mpe ya Irami, elongo na basali oyo bawutaki na engumba Biblosi, bamikotisaki na mosala ya kokata yango, kopasola mabaya mpe kobongisa mabanga mpo na kotonga Tempelo.
