Ang Iban pa nga Nahuman ni Solomon(A)

10 Pagkatapos sang 20 ka tuig nga pagpatindog ni Solomon sang duha ka bilding—ang templo sang Ginoo kag ang palasyo, 11 ginhatag niya ang 20 ka banwa sa Galilea kay Haring Hiram sang Tyre. Ginhimo niya ini tungod kay ginsuplayan siya ni Hiram sang tanan nga kahoy nga sedro kag sipres, kag sang bulawan nga iya ginkinahanglan. 12 Pero sang nagkadto si Hiram sa Galilea halin sa Tyre sa pagtan-aw sang mga banwa nga ginhatag sa iya ni Solomon, wala siya malipay sini. 13 Gani nagsiling siya kay Solomon, “Utod ko, ano nga klase sang mga banwa ining ginhatag mo sa akon?” Gintawag ni Hiram ato nga mga duta nga Cabul,[a] kag amo man gihapon ang tawag sini hasta subong. 14 Nagpadala sadto si Hiram kay Solomon sing mga lima ka tonelada nga bulawan.

15 Amo ini ang estorya parte sa pagtipon ni Haring Solomon sang mga tawo nga iya ginpilit nga mag-obra sa pagpatindog sang templo sang Ginoo kag sang iya palasyo, sa pagtampok sang manubo nga parte sang banwa,[b] sa pagpalig-on sang pader sang Jerusalem, kag sa pagpatindog liwat sang mga banwa sang Hazor, Megido, kag Gezer. 16 (Ining Gezer ginsalakay kag gin-agaw sang Faraon nga hari sang Egipto. Ginsunog niya ini kag ginpamatay ang mga pumuluyo sini nga mga Canaanhon. Ginhatag niya ini nga banwa sa iya anak nga babayi bilang regalo sa iya kasal kay Solomon. 17 Kag ginpatindog liwat ni Solomon ining Gezer.) Ginpatindog man ni Solomon ang idalom nga bahin sang Bet Horon, 18 ang Baalat, ang Tamar[c] nga ara sa desierto nga sakop sang iya duta, 19 kag ang tanan nga banwa nga bulutangan sang iya mga bodega, mga karwahe, kag mga kabayo. Ginpatindog niya ang tanan nga luyag niya patindugon sa Jerusalem, sa Lebanon, kag sa tanan nga duta nga sakop niya.

20-21 May mga katawhan pa nga indi Israelinhon nga nabilin sa Israel. Sila amo ang mga kaliwat sang mga Amornon, Hithanon, Periznon, Hivhanon kag mga Jebusnon, nga wala malaglag sing bug-os sang mga Israelinhon sang pag-agaw nila sang duta sang Canaan. Ginhimo sila ni Solomon nga mga ulipon kag ginpilit nga mag-obra, kag nagpabilin sila nga ulipon hasta subong. 22 Pero wala paghimua ni Solomon nga ulipon ang bisan sin-o nga Israelinhon. Sa baylo, ginhimo niya sila nga iya mga soldado, mga opisyal, mga pangulo sang mga soldado, mga kumander sang iya mga karwahe, kag mga manugkabayo. 23 Ang 550 sa ila ginhimo ni Solomon nga mga opisyal nga nagadumala sang mga nagaobra sa iya mga proyekto.

24 Sang matapos na ang palasyo nga ginpahimo ni Solomon para sa iya asawa nga anak sang hari sang Egipto,[d] ginsaylo niya ang iya asawa didto halin sa Banwa ni David.[e] Pagkatapos ginpatampukan niya ang manubo nga parte sang banwa.[f]

25 Tatlo ka beses kada tuig, nagahalad si Solomon sang mga halad nga ginasunog kag mga halad nga para sa maayo nga relasyon didto sa halaran nga iya ginpahimo para sa Ginoo. Nagasunog man siya sang insenso sa presensya sang Ginoo.

Gani natapos ni Solomon ang pagpatindog sang templo.

26 Nagpahimo pa gid si Solomon sang mga barko sa Ezion Geber, malapit sa Elat[g] nga sakop sang Edom, sa baybayon sang Mapula nga Dagat. 27 Nagpadala si Hiram sang mga hanas nga mga marino sa pagpanakayon upod sa mga tinawo ni Solomon. 28 Nagbiyahe sila sa Ofir; kag sang pagbalik nila may dala sila nga mga 15 ka tonelada nga bulawan, kag gindala nila ini kay Haring Solomon.

Solomon’s Other Activities(A)

10 At the end of twenty years, during which Solomon built these two buildings—the temple of the Lord and the royal palace— 11 King Solomon gave twenty towns in Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, because Hiram had supplied him with all the cedar and juniper and gold(B) he wanted. 12 But when Hiram went from Tyre to see the towns that Solomon had given him, he was not pleased with them. 13 “What kind of towns are these you have given me, my brother?” he asked. And he called them the Land of Kabul,[a](C) a name they have to this day. 14 Now Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents[b] of gold.(D)

15 Here is the account of the forced labor King Solomon conscripted(E) to build the Lord’s temple, his own palace, the terraces,[c](F) the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor,(G) Megiddo and Gezer.(H) 16 (Pharaoh king of Egypt had attacked and captured Gezer. He had set it on fire. He killed its Canaanite inhabitants and then gave it as a wedding gift to his daughter,(I) Solomon’s wife. 17 And Solomon rebuilt Gezer.) He built up Lower Beth Horon,(J) 18 Baalath,(K) and Tadmor[d] in the desert, within his land, 19 as well as all his store cities(L) and the towns for his chariots(M) and for his horses[e]—whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon and throughout all the territory he ruled.

20 There were still people left from the Amorites, Hittites,(N) Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites(O) (these peoples were not Israelites). 21 Solomon conscripted the descendants(P) of all these peoples remaining in the land—whom the Israelites could not exterminate[f](Q)—to serve as slave labor,(R) as it is to this day. 22 But Solomon did not make slaves(S) of any of the Israelites; they were his fighting men, his government officials, his officers, his captains, and the commanders of his chariots and charioteers. 23 They were also the chief officials(T) in charge of Solomon’s projects—550 officials supervising those who did the work.

24 After Pharaoh’s daughter(U) had come up from the City of David to the palace Solomon had built for her, he constructed the terraces.(V)

25 Three(W) times a year Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on the altar he had built for the Lord, burning incense before the Lord along with them, and so fulfilled the temple obligations.

26 King Solomon also built ships(X) at Ezion Geber,(Y) which is near Elath(Z) in Edom, on the shore of the Red Sea.[g] 27 And Hiram sent his men—sailors(AA) who knew the sea—to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s men. 28 They sailed to Ophir(AB) and brought back 420 talents[h] of gold,(AC) which they delivered to King Solomon.

10 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the king's house,

11 (Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire,) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.

13 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.

14 And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.

15 And this is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised; for to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

16 For Pharaoh 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 present unto his daughter, Solomon's wife.

17 And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the nether,

18 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

19 And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

20 And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel,

21 Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Solomon levy a tribute of bondservice unto this day.

22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen: but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.

23 These were the chief of the officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.

24 But 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.

25 And three times in a year did Solomon offer burnt offerings and peace offerings upon the altar which he built unto the Lord, and he burnt incense upon the altar that was before the Lord. So he finished the house.

26 And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Eziongeber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.

27 And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

28 And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
