열왕기상 5

성전 건축을 위한 준비
5 평소에 다윗과 친분이 두터웠던 두로의 히람왕은 솔로몬이 그의 아버지 다윗을 이어 새 왕이 되었다는 말을 듣고 그를 축하하려고 사절 단을 보냈다.
2 그래서 솔로몬은 히람왕에게 이런 전갈을 보냈다.
3 “당신도 아시겠지만 나의 아버지는 계속되는 전쟁 때문에 사방의 적들과 싸우느라고 여호와의 성전을 건축하지 못하고 여호와께서 그의 모든 원수들을 물리치게 하실 때까지 기다렸습니다.
4 그러나 이제는 나의 하나님 여호와께서 사방에 평화를 주셔서 대적도 없고 재난을 당할 위험도 없습니다.
5 여호와께서는 내 아버지에게 ‘내가 너를 이어 왕이 되게 할 네 아들이 나를 위하여 성전을 건축할 것이다’ 라고 말씀하셨습니다. 그래서 이제 내가 나의 하나님 여호와의 성전을 건축하려고 하는데
6 당신은 레바논의 백향목을 좀 베어 주실 수 있겠습니까? 당신의 종들에게 명령만 내리시면 내 종들을 보내 그들과 함께 일하도록 하겠습니다. 물론 당신의 종들이 일한 대가는 충분히 지불하겠습니다. 당신도 아시겠지만 우리 나라에는 시돈 사람처럼 벌목을 잘하는 사람이 없습니다.”
7 히람은 솔로몬의 전갈을 받고 무척 기뻐하며 “여호와께서 다윗에게 이처럼 지혜로운 아들을 주셔서 이스라엘의 수많은 백성을 다스리게 하 셨으니 여호와를 찬양하노라” 하였다.
8 그러고서 히람은 솔로몬에게 이런 회답을 보냈다. “당신의 전갈을 잘 받았습니다. 당신이 요구한 대로 내가 백향목과 잣나무를 보내도록 하겠습니다.
9 내 종들이 이 목재들을 레바논에서 지중해로 운반하여 거기서 뗏목으로 엮어 당신이 지정하는 해안까지 운송하겠습니다. 당신은 이것을 받으시고 내 소원대로 내 왕궁에 식량을 공급해 주십시오.”
10 히람이 솔로몬에게 그가 원하는 만큼의 백향목과 잣나무를 보내자
11 솔로몬도 히람에게 밀 [a]4,400킬로리터와 맑은 감람기름 [b]440킬로리터를 보내고 그 후에도 해마다 이것을 공급해 주었다.
12 여호와께서는 솔로몬에게 약속하신 대로 지혜를 주셨으며 히람과 솔로몬은 정식으로 우호 조약을 맺었다.
13 솔로몬은 이스라엘 전국에서 30,000명의 사역군을 동원하고
14 그들을 10,000명씩 교대로 레바논에 보냈는데 그들이 한 달은 레바논에 있었고 두 달은 집에서 보냈다. 그리고 작업 총감독관은 아도니람이었다.
15 또 솔로몬은 전적으로 운반만 하는 사역군 70,000명과 산에서 돌을 뜨는 석수 80,000명과
16 작업 반장 3,300명도 동원하였다.
17 솔로몬이 작업 명령을 내리자 석수들은 크고 좋은 돌을 떠다가 성전의 기초석으로 다듬었다.
18 이렇게 해서 솔로몬의 건축가들과 히람의 건축가들과 그발 사람들은 성전을 지을 돌을 다듬고 목재와 석재를 준비하였다.
1 Kings 5
King James Version
5 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.
2 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,
3 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the Lord his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.
4 But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrent.
5 And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.
6 Now therefore command thou that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and unto thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that there is not among us any that can skill to hew timber like unto the Sidonians.
7 And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed be the Lord this day, which hath given unto David a wise son over this great people.
8 And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: and I will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
9 My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon unto the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats unto the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive them: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.
10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees according to all his desire.
11 And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.
12 And the Lord gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
13 And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
14 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home: and Adoniram was over the levy.
15 And Solomon had threescore and ten thousand that bare burdens, and fourscore thousand hewers in the mountains;
16 Beside the chief of Solomon's officers which were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
17 And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, and hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.
18 And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders did hew them, and the stonesquarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
1 Kings 5
New King James Version
Solomon Prepares to Build the Temple(A)
5 Now (B)Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon, because he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father, (C)for Hiram had always loved David. 2 Then (D)Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:
3 (E)You know how my father David could not build a house for the name of the Lord his God (F)because of the wars which were fought against him on every side, until the Lord put [a]his foes under the soles of his feet.
4 But now the Lord my God has given me (G)rest[b] on every side; there is neither adversary nor [c]evil occurrence.
5 (H)And behold, [d]I propose to build a house for the name of the Lord my God, (I)as the Lord spoke to my father David, saying, “Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build the house for My name.”
6 Now therefore, command that they cut down (J)cedars for me from Lebanon; and my servants will be with your servants, and I will pay you wages for your servants according to whatever you say. For you know there is none among us who has skill to cut timber like the Sidonians.
7 So it was, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly and said,
Blessed be the Lord this day, for He has given David a wise son over this great people!
8 Then Hiram sent to Solomon, saying:
I have considered the message which you sent me, and I will do all you desire concerning the cedar and cypress logs.
9 My servants shall bring them down (K)from Lebanon to the sea; I will float them in rafts by sea to the place you indicate to me, and will have them broken apart there; then you can take them away. And you shall fulfill my desire (L)by giving food for my household.
10 Then Hiram gave Solomon cedar and cypress logs according to all his desire. 11 (M)And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand [e]kors of wheat as food for his household, and [f]twenty kors of pressed oil. Thus Solomon gave to Hiram year by year.
12 So the Lord gave Solomon wisdom, (N)as He had promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty together.
13 Then King Solomon raised up a labor force out of all Israel; and the labor force was thirty thousand men. 14 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month in shifts: they were one month in Lebanon and two months at home; (O)Adoniram was in charge of the labor force. 15 (P)Solomon had seventy thousand who carried burdens, and eighty thousand who quarried stone in the mountains, 16 besides three thousand [g]three hundred from the (Q)chiefs of Solomon’s deputies, who supervised the people who labored in the work. 17 And the king commanded them to quarry large stones, costly stones, and (R)hewn stones, to lay the foundation of the [h]temple. 18 So Solomon’s builders, Hiram’s builders, and the Gebalites quarried them; and they prepared timber and stones to build the [i]temple.
