1 Kings 5
1 And Hiram King of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon, for he had heard that, him, had they anointed king, in the room of his father, —for, Hiram, was, a lover, of, David continually.
Hiramu mambo weTire akati anzwa kuti Soromoni akanga azodzwa kuti ave mambo panzvimbo yababa vake Dhavhidhi, akatuma nhume dzake kuna Soromoni, nokuti Hiramu akanga agara ano ushamwari naDhavhidhi.
2 So Solomon sent unto Hiram, saying: —
Soromoni akatuma shoko kuna Hiramu akati:
3 Thou, knewest David my father, how that he could not build a house unto the Name of Yahweh his God, because of the wars that were about him on every side, —until Yahweh should put them under the soles of his feet;
“Munoziva kuti nokuda kwehondo dzairwisana nababa vangu Dhavhidhi kubva kumativi ose, haana kuzokwanisa kuvakira Zita raJehovha Mwari wake temberi, kusvikira Jehovha aisa vavengi vake pasi petsoka dzake.
4 but, now, Yahweh my God hath given me rest on every side, —there is neither adversary nor incident of evil.
Asi zvino Jehovha Mwari wangu andipa zororo kumativi ose, hapachisina muvengi kana dambudziko.
5 Behold me! then, purposing to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God—even as Yahweh spake unto David my father, saying—Thy son, whom I will set in thy stead, upon thy throne, he, shall build the house for my Name.
Naizvozvo ndinoda kuvakira zita raJehovha Mwari wangu temberi, sezvo Jehovha akati kuna baba vangu Dhavhidhi, ‘Mwanakomana wako, uyo wandichagadza pachigaro choushe panzvimbo yako, achavakira zita rangu temberi iyi.’
6 Now, therefore, command thou that they fell me cedars, out of Lebanon, and, my servants, shall be, with thy servants, and, the hire of thy servants, will I give thee, according to all that thou shalt say, —for, thou, knowest, that, none amongst us, hath skill to fell timber, like the Zidonians.
“Naizvozvo chirayirai kuti nditemerwe matanda emisidhari yeRebhanoni. Vanhu vangu vachashanda pamwe chete navanhu venyu uye ndichakuripirai mari yamunenge mati iripirwe vanhu venyu. Munoziva kuti hatina kana munhu mumwe anogona kutema matanda sezvinoitwa navaSidhoni.”
7 And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, —and said: Blessed, be Yahweh, to-day, who hath given unto David a wise son, over this great people!
Hiramu akati anzwa shoko raSoromoni, akafara zvikuru, uye akati, “Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe nhasi, nokuti apa Dhavhidhi mwanakomana ane uchenjeri kuti atonge rudzi rukuru urwu.”
8 And Hiram sent unto Solomon, saying, I have heard that which thou hast sent unto me, —I, will do all thy desire, as to timber of cedar, and timber of fir.
Saka Hiramu akatuma shoko kuna Soromoni achiti: “Ndagamuchira shoko ramanditumira navamakatuma uye ndichaita zvose zvamunoda ndigokupai matanda emisidhari nemisipuresi.
9 My servants, shall bring them down out of Lebanon unto the sea, and, I, will put them in rafts on the sea, unto the place of which thou shalt send me word, and will cause them to be discharged there, and, thou, shalt receive them, and, thou, shalt do my desire, by giving food for my household.
Vanhu vangu vachatakura kubva kuRebhanoni kusvika kugungwa, uye, ndichaayeredza negungwa kunzvimbo yamunenge masarudza. Ikoko ndichapatsanura kuti mugogona kuatora moenda nawo. Imi mugondiitirawo chishuvo changu mugopa muzinda wangu zvokudya.”
10 So then Hiram began giving unto Solomon timber of cedar, and timber of fir, even all his desire,
Nenzira iyi Hiramu akapa Soromoni matanda ose emisidhari nemisipuresi aaida,
11 and, Solomon, gave unto Hiram, twenty thousand measures of wheat, as food for his household, and twenty measures of beaten oil, —thus, used Solomon on to give unto Hiram, year by year.
uye Soromoni akapa Hiramu zviyero zviuru makumi maviri zvegorosi kuti zvidyiwe mumuzinda wake, pamwe chete nezviyero makumi maviri zvamafuta omuorivhi akasvinwa zvakakwana. Soromoni akaramba achiitira Hiramu zvinhu izvi gore negore.
12 And, Yahweh, gave wisdom unto Solomon, as he promised him, —and it came to pass that there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and, they two, solemnised a covenant.
Jehovha akapa Soromoni uchenjeri, sezvaakanga amuvimbisa. Pakati paHiramu naSoromoni pakava norugare, uye vaviri ava vakanyorerana chibvumirano.
13 And King Solomon raised a labour-band, out of all Israel, —and it came to pass that, the labour-band, was thirty thousand men.
Mambo Soromoni akaunganidza vanhu vechibharo muIsraeri yose, vanhu zviuru makumi matatu.
14 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by courses, a month, were they in Lebanon, two months, at home, —and, Adoniram, was over the levy.
Akavatumira kuRebhanoni, zviuru gumi pamwedzi, zvokuti vaipedza mwedzi mumwe chete vari kuRebhanoni nemwedzi miviri vari kumusha. Adhoniramu ndiye aiva mukuru wechibharo.
15 And it came to pass that, Solomon, had seventy thousand bearers of burdens, —and eighty thousand hewers in the mountain;
Soromoni aiva navatakuri vezvinhu zviuru makumi manomwe uye vavezi vamatombo zviuru makumi masere mumakomo,
16 besides the chiefs of Solomon’s officers, who were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, —who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
pamwe chete navatariri vebasa zviuru zvitatu namazana matatu vaitungamirira basa nokuudza vashandi zvokuita.
17 And the king commanded, and they quarried great stones, costly stones, to found the house with hewn stones.
Mambo akarayira vakaputsa matombo makuru kwazvo, anokosha, kuti vavake hwaro hwetemberi namatombo akavezwa.
18 And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders with the Gebalites wrought them, —thus made they ready the timber and the stones, for building the house.
Vavaki vaSoromoni, navavaki vaHiramu navaGebhari vakaveza matanda namatombo okuvakisa temberi.
