1Nā, ka tonoa e Hīrama kīngi o Tāira āna tāngata ki a Horomona; i rongo hoki kua oti ia te whakawahi hei kīngi i muri i tōna pāpā; he aroha mau tonu hoki tō Hīrama ki a Rāwiri.
2Ā, ka tono tāngata a Horomona ki a Hīrama hei kī atu:
3“E mōhio ana koe kīhai i taea e tōku pāpā, e Rāwiri, te hanga whare mō te ingoa o Ihowā, o tōna Atua, i ngā whawhai hoki i tētahi taha ōna, i tētahi taha, ā taea noatia te hoatutanga o rātou e Ihowā ki raro i ngā kapu o ōna waewae.
4Ko tēnei, kua mea nei a Ihowā, tōku Atua, kia okioki ahau i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha; kāhore he hoariri, kāhore hoki he kino e pā mai ana.
5Nā, e mea ana tēnei ahau kia hangā he whare mō te ingoa o Ihowā, o tōku Atua, kia whakaritea te kupu a Ihowā ki tōku pāpā, ki a Rāwiri, tāna i mea ai, ‘Ko tāu tama e hoatu e ahau i muri i a koe ki runga ki tōu torōna, māna e hanga te whare mō tōku ingoa.’
6“Tēnā rā, māu e whakahau kia tapahia mai he hīta māku i Repanōna. Ā, ko āku tāngata hei hoa mō āu tāngata; me hoatu anō e ahau ki a koe he utu mō āu tāngata, kia rite ki ngā mea katoa e kī mai ai koe; e mōhio ana hoki koe kāhore ō mātou tāngata hei rite mō ngā Haironi te mōhio ki te tapahi rākau.”
7Ā, i te rongonga o Hīrama i ngā kupu a Horomona, nui atu tōna koa, ā, ka mea, “Kia whakapaingia a Ihowā i tēnei rā, nāna nei i hōmai ki a Rāwiri he tama mōhio hei rangatira mō tēnei iwi nui.”
8Nā, ka tono tāngata atu a Hīrama ki a Horomona, hei mea:
“Kua rongo atu ahau i te kupu i tukua mai nei e koe ki ahau; ka mahia katoatia e ahau tāu e hiahia ana, arā ngā rākau, te hīta me te kauri.
9Mā āku tāngata e tari mai i Repanōna ki te moana; ā, māku e whakatere atu i te moana ki te wāhi e whakarite ai koe ki ahau, māku hoki e mea kia rukea ki uta ki reira, ka tiki mai ai e koe; ā, ka meatia e koe tāku e hiahia ai, ki te hōmai he kai mā tōku whare.”
10Nā, ka hōmai e Hīrama he hīta, he kauri, ki a Horomona, āna rākau i hiahia ai.
11Ā, hoatu ana e Horomona ki a Hīrama he mēhua wīti e rua tekau mano hei kai mā tōna whare, he mēhua hinu e rua tekau, he mea tuki; ko tā Horomona tēnei i hoatu ai ki a Hīrama i tēnei tau, i tēnei tau.
12Ā, hōmai ana e Ihowā ki a Horomona he mōhio, he pērā me tāna i kōrero ai ki a ia; ā, mau tonu te rongo i waenganui o Hīrama rāua ko Horomona; ā, i whakarite kawenata rāua tokorua.
13Nā, ka whakatakā e Horomona ētahi tāngata i roto i a Īharaira katoa; e toru tekau mano tāngata taua whakataka.
14Ā, ungā ana rātou e ia ki Repanōna, tekau mano i te marama kotahi, he mea whakawhitiwhiti; kotahi tō rātou marama i Repanōna, e rua ngā marama i te kāinga; ko Aronirama hoki te rangatira o taua whakataka.
15Nā, e whitu tekau mano ngā tāngata a Horomona hei mau kawenga, e waru tekau mano hei tārai i runga i ngā maunga;
16hāunga ngā rangatira o ngā kaitohutohu a Horomona i whakahau nei i te mahi, e toru mano e toru rau aua kaiwhakahau i ngā kaimahi i te mahi.
17Nā, ka whakahau te kīngi, ā, ka hāua e rātou he kōhatu nunui, he kōhatu utu nui, hei kōhatu hahau mō te tūranga o te whare.
18Nā, tāraia ana e ngā kaihanga a Horomona, e ngā kaihanga a Hīrama, e ngā Kipiri, whakapaia ana e rātou ngā rākau me ngā kōhatu hei hanga mō te whare.
