Und Hiram, der König zu Tyrus, sandte seine Knechte zu Salomo; denn er hatte gehört, daß sie ihn zum König gesalbt hatten an seines Vaters Statt. Denn Hiram liebte David sein Leben lang.
Tenía también Salomón setenta mil que llevaban las cargas, y ochenta mil cortadores en el monte;
Salomón tenía setenta mil cargadores y ochenta mil canteros en la región montañosa,
Salomon avait encore soixante-dix mille hommes qui portaient les fardeaux et quatre-vingt mille qui taillaient les pierres dans la montagne,
Oltre a ciò, Salomone avea settantamila uomini da portar pesi; ed ottantamila che tagliavano pietre nel monte;
Tinha também Salomão setenta mil que levavam as cargas, e oitenta mil que talhavam pedras nas montanhas,
所羅門 有七萬扛抬的,八萬在山上鑿石頭的。
