1 Kings 9
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all Solomon's delight which he was pleased to do,
1Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh manghai im a sak ham khaw, saii ham a ngaih Solomon kah huengaihnah boeih te khaw cup coeng.
2that the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as He had appeared unto him at Gibeon.
2BOEIPA he Gibeon ah a taengla aphoe bangla Solomon taengah a pabae la a phoe pah.
3And the LORD said unto him: 'I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before Me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put My name there for ever; and Mine eyes and My heart shall be there perpetually.
3BOEIPA loh anih te, “Ka mikhmuh ah rhennah nan bih bangla na thangthuinah neh na lungmacil khaw ka yaak coeng. Kumhal due ka ming khueh ham na sak im he ka ciim coeng. Te dongah ka mik neh ka lungbuei tah teah hnin takuem om pawn ni.
4And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before Me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep My statutes and Mine ordinances;
4Nang khaw na pa David a pongpa bangla thinko kah thincaknah, duengnah neh ka mikhmuh ah na pongpa atah, a cungkuem dongah nang kang uen bangla ka oltlueh neh ka laitloeknah he vai ham ngaithuen.
5then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever; according as I promised to David thy father, saying: There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
5Na pa David taengah ka thui tih, 'Israel ngolkhoel dong lamloh nang kah hlang he pat mahpawh,’ ka ti nah bangla na ram kah ngolkhoel te Israel soah kumhal duela ka thoh ni.
6But if ye shall turn away from following Me, ye or your children, and not keep My commandments and My statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
6Nangmih khaw, na ca rhoek khaw kai hnuk lamloh na mael rhoe na mael tih, na mikhmuh ah kam paek ka olpaek neh ka khosing te na ngaithuen uh pawh, na cet uh tih pathen tloe rhoek te tho na thueng uh, amih te na bawk uh khaming.
7then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for My name, will I cast out of My sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a by word among all peoples;
7Te vaengah Israel te amamih taengah ka paek khohmuen hman lamloh ka saii vetih ka ming hamla ka ciim im he khaw ka maelhmai lamloh ka hnoo ni. Israel te pilnam cungkuem lakli ah thuidoeknah neh thuinuetnah la om ni.
8and this house which is so high shall become desolate, and every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and when they shall say: Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and to this house?
8He im he a sangkoek la om cakhaw he long aka pah boeih tah hal ni. Te vaengah kutving neh, “Balae tih BOEIPA loh he khohmuen taeng neh he im soah he tla a saii,” a ti uh ni.
9they shall be answered: Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them; therefore hath the LORD brought all this evil upon them.'
9Tedae, 'A napa rhoek Egypt khohmuen lamkah aka khuen amih kah Pathen BOEIPA te a moeng uh, pathen tloe dongla kap uh tih a bawk uh, te rhoek te a bawk uh phoeiah tho a thueng uh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh amih soah he kah yoethae cungkuem he a thoeng sak,’ a ti uh ni,” a ti nah.
10And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house —
10Kum kul a bawtnah a pha vaengah Solomon loh im panit, BOEIPA im neh manghai im te bawt a sak.
11now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar-trees and cypress-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire — that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
11Tyre manghai Khiram loh Solomon te lamphai thing nen khaw, hmaical thing nen khaw, sui nen khaw a cungkuem dongah a kongaih bangla a talong vaengah tah manghai Solomon loh Khiram te Galilee khohmuen ah khopuei pakul a paek.
12And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him: and they pleased him not.
12Tedae Khiram te Solomon loh anih taengah a paek khopuei sawt ham la Tyre lamloh a caeh vaengah tah a mik ah cop pawh.
13And he said: 'What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother?' And they were called the land of Cabul, unto this day.
13Te vaengah, “Ka manuca aw, kai taengah nan paek khopuei rhoek he mebang nim?” a ti nah. Te dongah te rhoek te tahae khohnin duela Kabuul khohmuen la a khue.
14And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.
14Te vaengah Khiram loh manghai taengah sui talent ya pakul a pat.
15And this is the account of the levy which king Solomon raised; to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
15Saldong olka dongah he manghai Solomon loh BOEIPA im neh amah im, vaikhap neh Jerusalem vongtung, Hazor, Megiddo neh Gezer thoh ham ni a doek.
16Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a portion unto his daughter, Solomon's wife.
16Egypt manghai Pharaoh loh cet tih Gezer te a tuuk. Te te hmai neh a hoeh phoeiah khopuei kah khosa Kanaan rhoek te a ngawn. Te phoeiah khopuei te a canu, Solomon yuu taengah maan la a paek.
17And Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon the nether,
17Solomon loh Gezer neh a dang Bethhoron te a thoh.
18and Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
18Tedae Baalath, Tamar neh Tadmor tah khohmuen kah khosoek ah om.
19and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
19Rhuengim khopuei boeih, leng khopuei rhoek, marhang caem khopuei he Solomon taengah a om pah. Solomon kah huengaihnah te tah Jerusalem ah, Lebanon ah, a khohung khohmuen tom ah sak hamla a kocuk.
20All the people that were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel;
20Amori, Khitti, Perizzi, Khivee, Jebusi lamkah aka sueng pilnam boeih, amih Israel ca rhoek lamkah pawt te tah,
21even their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, of them did Solomon raise a levy of bondservants, unto this day.
21khohmuen ah amih hnukah aka sueng a ca rhoek, amih thup ham te Israel ca rhoek loh noeng uh pawh. Te dongah Solomon loh amih te saldong la a doek tih tahae khohnin duela thotat uh.
22But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
22Tedae Israel ca te tah Solomon loh sal la khueh pawh. Amih te caemtloek hlang neh a sal rhoek, a mangpa, a rhalboei, leng mangpa neh marhang caem la om uh.
23These were the chief officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, who bore rule over the people that wrought in the work.
23Solomon kah bitat soah aka pai mangpa rhoek he ya nga sawmnga lo tih bitat dongah aka thotat pilnam te a taemrhai uh.
24But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David unto her house which Solomon had built for her; then did he build Millo.
24Tedae Pharaoh canu tah anih ham a sak pah a im te David khopuei lamloh a paan daengah vaikhap te a sak pah.
25And three times in a year did Solomon offer burnt-offerings and peace-offerings upon the altar which he built unto the LORD, offering thereby, upon the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.
25Solomon loh kum khat ah voei thum tah hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah te BOEIPA ham a sak pah hmueihtuk dongah a nawn. Te te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a phum tih im te a cung sak.
26And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
26Solomon manghai loh Eziongeber ah sangpho a saii. Te te Edom khohmuen kah carhaek tuili kaeng kah Elath taengah om.
27And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
27Te vaengah Khiram loh a sal rhoek khaw, tuitunli aka ming sangpho hlang khaw, sangpho dongah Solomon kah sal rhoek taengla a tueih pah.
28And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
28Te dongah Ophir la a pawk uh vaengah te lamloh sui talent ya li pakul a khuen uh tih manghai Solomon taengla a pawk puei uh.
