Waxyaalahii Kale Ee Sulaymaan Sameeyey

Oo markay dhammaadeen labaatankii sannadood ee uu Sulaymaan guriga Rabbiga iyo gurigiisiiba dhisayay, ayuu Sulaymaan dhisay magaalooyinkii Xuuraam isaga siiyey, oo wuxuu halkaas dejiyey reer binu Israa'iil.

Oo haddana Sulaymaan wuxuu tegey Xamad Soobaah, wuuna ka adkaaday. Oo cidladiina ayuu Tadmor ka dhisay, oo weliba wuxuu Xamaad ka dhisay magaalooyinkii wax lagu kaydin jiray oo dhan. Oo weliba wuxuu kaloo dhisay Beytxooroontii sare iyo Beytxooroontii hooseba, wuxuuna ka dhigay magaalooyin deyr leh oo ay derbiyo ku wareegsan yihiin oo irdo iyo qataarroba leh, iyo weliba Bacalad, iyo magaalooyinkii wax lagu kaydin jiray oo uu Sulaymaan lahaa oo dhan, iyo magaalooyinkii gaadhifardoodkiisa oo dhan, iyo magaalooyinkii fardooleydiisa, iyo wixii uu Sulaymaan jeclaaday inuu ka dhisto Yeruusaalem, iyo Lubnaan, iyo dalkii uu boqorka ka ahaa oo dhan. Oo weliba dadkii ka hadhay reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus oo aan reer binu Israa'iil ahayn, kuwaas farcankoodii dalka ku hadhay, oo aanay reer binu Israa'iil baabbi'in, Sulaymaan wuxuu ka dhigtay addoommo ilaa maantadan la joogo. Laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil Sulaymaan shuqulkiisii addoommo ugama uu dhigan, waxayse ahaayeen rag dagaalyahan ah iyo madaxdii saraakiishiisa, iyo taliyayaashii gaadhifardoodkiisa iyo fardooleydiisaba. 10 Oo kuwanu waxay ahaayeen saraakiishii Boqor Sulaymaan oo ahaa laba boqol iyo konton nin oo dadka u taliya. 11 Markaasaa Sulaymaan gabadhii Fircoon ka soo kaxeeyey magaaladii Daa'uud oo wuxuu keenay gurigii uu iyada u dhisay, waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Naagtaydu degganaan mayso gurigii Daa'uud oo ahaa boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil, maxaa yeelay, meelihii sanduuqa Rabbigu yimid waa wada quduus.

12 Oo haddana Sulaymaan wuxuu Rabbiga qurbaanno la gubo ugu bixiyey meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga oo uu isagu ka dhisay balbalada horteedii. 13 Wuxuu bixiyey wixii Muuse amray in la bixiyo maalin kasta, iyo Sabtiyada, iyo markay bilaha cusubu dhashaan, iyo iidaha sannaddiiba saddex jeer loo amray, kuwaasoo ahaa Iiddii Kibista-aan-khamiirka-lahayn, iyo Iiddii Toddobaadyada, iyo Iiddii Taambuugyada. 14 Oo kooxihii wadaaddadu ku adeegi jireen iyo kuwii reer Laawi shuqulkooda loo amray ku samayn jireenba wuxuu ka dhigay si waafaqsan amarkii aabbihiis Daa'uud inay Rabbiga ammaanaan oo ay wadaaddada hortooda ka adeegaan sidii maalin kasta hawsheedii loo doonayay, oo weliba iridjoogayaashii ayuu kooxahoodii irid kasta ku taagay, waayo, sidaas waxaa amray Daa'uud oo ahaa ninkii Ilaah. 15 Oo iyana kama ay tegin amarkii boqorku ku amray wadaaddada iyo reer Laawi oo ku saabsanaa xaal kasta iyo xaggii khasnadahaba.

16 Haddaba Sulaymaan shuqulkiisa oo dhammu diyaar buu u ahaa maalintii guriga Rabbiga aasaaskiisa la dhigay iyo ilaa maalintii la dhammeeyey. Oo sidaasaa guriga Rabbiga loo ebyey.

17 Markaasaa Sulaymaan wuxuu tegey xagga Cesyoon Geber iyo Eelood oo ku yaal xeebta badda ee dalka Edom. 18 Oo Xuuraamna wuxuu gacanta addoommadiisii ugu sii dhiibay doonniyo iyo addoommo badda aqoon u leh, oo iyagu waxay addoommadii Sulaymaan u soo raaceen Oofir, oo halkaasayna Boqor Sulaymaan uga keeneen afar boqol iyo konton talanti oo dahab ah.

Solomon’s Other Activities(A)

At the end of twenty years, during which Solomon built the temple of the Lord and his own palace,(B) Solomon rebuilt the villages that Hiram[a] had given him, and settled Israelites in them. Solomon then went to Hamath Zobah and captured it. He also built up Tadmor in the desert and all the store cities he had built in Hamath.(C) He rebuilt Upper Beth Horon(D) and Lower Beth Horon as fortified cities, with walls and with gates and bars, as well as Baalath(E) and all his store cities, and all the cities for his chariots and for his horses[b]—whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon and throughout all the territory he ruled.

There were still people left from the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites(F) (these people were not Israelites). Solomon conscripted(G) the descendants of all these people remaining in the land—whom the Israelites had not destroyed—to serve as slave labor, as it is to this day. But Solomon did not make slaves of the Israelites for his work; they were his fighting men, commanders of his captains, and commanders of his chariots and charioteers. 10 They were also King Solomon’s chief officials—two hundred and fifty officials supervising the men.

11 Solomon brought Pharaoh’s daughter(H) up from the City of David to the palace he had built for her, for he said, “My wife must not live in the palace of David king of Israel, because the places the ark of the Lord has entered are holy.”

12 On the altar(I) of the Lord that he had built in front of the portico, Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings to the Lord, 13 according to the daily requirement(J) for offerings commanded by Moses for the Sabbaths,(K) the New Moons(L) and the three(M) annual festivals—the Festival of Unleavened Bread,(N) the Festival of Weeks(O) and the Festival of Tabernacles.(P) 14 In keeping with the ordinance of his father David, he appointed the divisions(Q) of the priests for their duties, and the Levites(R) to lead the praise and to assist the priests according to each day’s requirement. He also appointed the gatekeepers(S) by divisions for the various gates, because this was what David the man of God(T) had ordered.(U) 15 They did not deviate from the king’s commands to the priests or to the Levites in any matter, including that of the treasuries.

16 All Solomon’s work was carried out, from the day the foundation of the temple of the Lord was laid until its completion. So the temple of the Lord was finished.

17 Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and Elath on the coast of Edom. 18 And Hiram sent him ships commanded by his own men, sailors who knew the sea. These, with Solomon’s men, sailed to Ophir and brought back four hundred and fifty talents[c] of gold,(V) which they delivered to King Solomon.
