Kings III 5
1 And Chiram king of Tyre sent his servants to anoint Solomon in the room of David his father, because Chiram always loved David.
misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri servos suos ad Salomonem audivit enim quod ipsum unxissent regem pro patre eius quia amicus fuerat Hiram David omni tempore
2 And Solomon sent to Chiram, saying,
misit autem et Salomon ad Hiram dicens
3 You knew my father David, that he could not build a house to the name of the Lord my God because of the wars that compassed him about, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.
tu scis voluntatem David patris mei et quia non potuerit aedificare domum nomini Domini Dei sui propter bella inminentia per circuitum donec daret Dominus eos sub vestigio pedum eius
4 And now the Lord my God has given me rest round about; there is no one plotting against [me], and there is no evil trespass [against me].
nunc autem requiem dedit Deus meus mihi per circuitum non est Satan neque occursus malus
5 And, behold, I intend to build a house to the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord God spoke to my father David, saying, Your son whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build a house to my name.
quam ob rem cogito aedificare templum nomini Domini Dei mei sicut locutus est Dominus David patri meo dicens filius tuus quem dabo pro te super solium tuum ipse aedificabit domum nomini meo
6 And now command, and let [men] cut wood for me out of Libanus: and, behold, my servants [shall be] with your servants, and I will give you the wages of your service, according to all that you shall say, because you know that we have no one skilled in cutting timber like the Sidonians.
praecipe igitur ut praecidant mihi cedros de Libano et servi mei sint cum servis tuis mercedem autem servorum tuorum dabo tibi quamcumque praeceperis scis enim quoniam non est in populo meo vir qui noverit ligna caedere sicut Sidonii
7 And it came to pass, as soon as Chiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] God today, who has given to David a wise son over this numerous people.
cum ergo audisset Hiram verba Salomonis laetatus est valde et ait benedictus Dominus hodie qui dedit David filium sapientissimum super populum hunc plurimum
8 And he sent to Solomon, saying, I have listened concerning all that you have sent to me for: I will do all your will: [as for] timber of cedar and fir,
et misit Hiram ad Salomonem dicens audivi quaecumque mandasti mihi ego faciam omnem voluntatem tuam in lignis cedrinis et abiegnis
9 my servants shall bring them down from Libanus to the sea: I will form them [into] rafts, [and bring them] to the place which you shall send to me [about]; and I will land them there, and you shall take [them] up: and you shall do my will, in giving bread to my household.
servi mei deponent ea de Libano ad mare et ego conponam ea in ratibus in mari usque ad locum quem significaveris mihi et adplicabo ea ibi et tu tolles ea praebebisque necessaria mihi ut detur cibus domui meae
10 So Chiram gave to Solomon cedars, and fir trees, and all his desire.
itaque Hiram dabat Salomoni ligna cedrina et ligna abiegna iuxta omnem voluntatem eius
11 And Solomon gave to Chiram twenty thousand measures of wheat as food for his house, and twenty thousand baths of beaten oil thus Solomon gave to Chiram yearly.
Salomon autem praebebat Hiram viginti milia chororum tritici in cibum domui eius et viginti choros purissimi olei haec tribuebat Salomon Hiram per annos singulos
12 And the Lord gave wisdom to Solomon as he promised him; and there was peace between Chiram and Solomon, and they made a covenant between them.
dedit quoque Dominus sapientiam Salomoni sicut locutus est ei et erat pax inter Hiram et Salomonem et percusserunt foedus ambo
13 And the king raised a levy out of all Israel, and the levy was thirty thousand men.
legitque rex Salomon operas de omni Israhel et erat indictio triginta milia virorum
14 And he sent them to Libanus, ten thousand taking turn every month: they were a month in Libanus and two months at home: and Adoniram [was] over the levy.
mittebatque eos in Libanum decem milia per menses singulos vicissim ita ut duobus mensibus essent in domibus suis et Adoniram erat super huiuscemodi indictione
15 And Solomon had seventy thousand bearers of burdens, and eighty thousand hewers of stone in the mountain;
fuerunt itaque Salomoni septuaginta milia eorum qui onera portabant et octoginta milia latomorum in monte
16 besides the rulers that were appointed over the works of Solomon, [there were] three thousand six hundred masters who wrought in the works.
absque praepositis qui praeerant singulis operibus numero trium milium et trecentorum praecipientium populo et his qui faciebant opus
17 [And the king commanded and they ] [brought great stones, precious stones for the foundation of the house, and unhewn stones. ]
praecepitque rex ut tollerent lapides grandes lapides pretiosos in fundamentum templi et quadrarent eos
18 And they prepared the stones and the timber [during] three years.
quos dolaverunt cementarii Salomonis et cementarii Hiram porro Biblii praeparaverunt ligna et lapides ad aedificandam domum
