歷代志上 29
1 [達味勸捐]達味王又對全會眾說：「我的兒子撒羅滿，天主所特天主；
And kyng Dauid spak to al the chirche, God hath chose Salomon, my sone, yit a child and tendre; forsothe the werk is greet, and a dwellyng is not maad redi to man but to God.
2 為此，我竭盡力量為我天主的殿宇，預備了金子作金器，銀子作銀器，銅作銅器，鐵作鐵器，木作木器，且有紅瑪瑙、可鑲嵌的寶石、孔雀石、斑色石、各種玉石，以及很多大理石。
Sotheli Y in alle my myytis haue maad redi the costis of the hows of my God; gold to goldun vessels, siluer in to siluerne vessels, bras in to brasun vessels, irun in to irun vessels, tre in to trenun vessels, onychyn stonys, and stonys as of the colour of wymmens oynement, and ech precious stoon of dyuerse colouris, and marbil of dyuerse colouris, most plenteuously.
3 此外，因為我愛我天主的殿宇，除了我為建築聖殿所準備的以外，我還將我私蓄的金銀，獻給我天主的殿宇：
And ouer these thingis Y yyue gold and siluer in to the temple of my God, whiche Y offride of my propir catel in to the hows of my God, outakun these thingis whiche Y made redi in to the hooli hows,
4 就是敖非爾金子三千「塔冷通，」純銀七千「塔冷通，」為包殿內的牆壁；
thre thousynde talentis of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seuene thousynde of talentis of siluer most preuyd, to ouergilde the wallis of the temple;
5 金子用來製造金器，銀子用來製造銀器，和匠人所應作的一切巧工。今天誰自願給上主捐獻呢﹖」
and werkis be maad bi the hondis of crafti men, where euere gold is nedeful, of gold, and where euere siluer is nedeful, of siluer; and if ony man offrith bi his fre wille, fille he his hond to dai, and offre he that that he wole to the Lord.
6 於是各族長、以色列各支派的首領、千夫長、百夫長以及掌管君王勞役的主管，都自願捐獻。
Therfor the princes of meynees, and the duykis of the lynagis of Israel, and the tribunes, and the centuriouns, and the princes of the possessiouns of the kyng, bihiyten;
7 為了天主殿宇的用途，他們捐獻了五千「塔冷通」金子，一萬「達理克，」一萬「塔冷通」銀子，一暗八千「塔冷通」銅和十萬「塔冷通」鐵。
and thei yauen in to the werkis of the hows of the Lord, fyue thousynde talentis of gold, and ten thousynde schyllyngis; ten thousynde talentis of siluer, and eiytene thousynde talentis of bras, and an hundrid thousynde of talentis of irun.
8 凡有寶石的，都交入上主殿內府庫裏，由革爾雄人耶希耳保管。
And at whom euere stoonys were foundun, thei yauen in to the tresour of the hows of the Lord, bi the hond of Jehiel Gersonyte.
9 百姓都因這些人甘願捐獻而高興，因為他們都甘心情願向上主捐獻；達味君王也非常高興。[達味讚頌上主]
And the puple was glad, whanne thei bihiyten avowis bi her fre wille, for with al the herte thei offriden tho to the Lord. But also kyng Dauid was glad with greet ioye, and blesside the Lord bifor al the multitude,
10 達味遂在全會眾面前讚頌上主說：「上主，我們的祖先以色列的天主應受讚美，從永遠直到永遠!
and seide, Lord God of Israel, oure fadir, thou art blessid fro with outen bigynnyng in to with outen ende;
11 上主! 偉大、能力、榮耀、壯麗和威嚴都歸於你，因為上天下地所有的一切都是你的。上主! 王權屬於你，你應受舉揚為萬有的元首。
Lord, worthi doyng is thin, and power, and glorie, and victorie, and heriyng is to thee; for alle thingis that ben in heuene and in erthe ben thine; Lord, the rewme is thin, and thou art ouer alle princes; ritchessis ben thin, and glorie is thin;
12 富貴和光榮由你而來，你是一切的主宰；力量和權能在你手中；人強大，人昌盛，都出於你手。
thou art Lord of alle; in thin hond is vertu, and power, and in thin hond is greetnesse, and lordschipe of alle.
13 我們的天主，現在我們稱頌你，讚揚你榮耀的名。
Now therfor, oure God, we knoulechen to thee, and we herien thi noble name.
14 我算什麼﹖我的百姓又算什麼﹖竟有能力如此甘願捐獻﹖其實一切是由你而來，我們只是將由你手中得來的，再奉獻給你。
Who am Y, and who is my puple, that we moun bihete alle these thingis to thee? Alle thingis ben thine, and we han youe to thee tho thingis, whiche we token of thin hond.
15 我們在你面前是外方人，是旅居作客的，一如我們的祖先；我們在世上的時日有如陰影，不能持久。
For we ben pilgrimes and comelyngis bifor thee, as alle oure fadris; oure daies ben as schadewe on the erthe, and `no dwellyng is.
16 上主我們的天主! 我們為建築敬拜你聖名的殿宇所預備的這一切財物，都是由你而來，也完全是你的。
Oure Lord God, al this plentee which we han maad redi, that an hows schulde be byldid to thin hooli name, is of thin hond; and alle thingis ben thin.
17 我的天主! 我知道你考驗人心，你喜愛正直，我即以正直的心自願獻上這一切，並且我現在很喜歡看見你在這裏的百姓，都自願向你捐獻。
My God, Y woot, that thou preuest hertis, and louest symplenesse of herte; wherfor and Y, in the symplenesse of myn herte, haue offrid gladli alle these thingis; and Y siy with greet ioye thi puple, which is foundun here, offre yiftis to thee.
18 上主，我們祖先亞巴郎、依撒格、以色列的天主! 求你永遠使你的人民保存這種心思意願，令他們的心靈堅定於你。
Lord God of Abraham, and of Ysaac, and of Israel, oure fadris, kepe thou with outen ende this wille of her hertis; and this mynde dwelle euere in to the worschipyng of thee.
19 求你賜給我兒撒羅滿一顆純全的心，遵守你的誡命、你的法律和你的典章，一一實行，用我所準備的來建築殿宇。」
Also yyue thou to Salomon, my sone, a perfit herte, that he kepe thin heestis, and witnessyngis, and thi ceremonyes; and do alle thingis, and that he bilde the hows, whose costis Y haue maad redi.
20 達味對全會眾說：「你們應該讚頌上主，你們的天主! 」全會眾便讚頌了上主，他們祖先的天主，向上主，及君王俯首下拜。[撒羅滿登極]
Forsothe Dauid comaundide to al the chirche, Blesse ye `oure Lord God. And al the chirche blesside the Lord God of her fadris, and thei bowiden hem silf, and worschipiden God, aftirward the kyng.
21 次日，他向上主獻了全燔祭：牛犢一千，公山羊一千，羔羊一千，以及同獻的奠祭，並為以色列民眾獻了許多犧牲。
And thei offriden slayn sacrifices to the Lord, and thei offriden brent sacrifices in the dai suynge; a thousynde boolis, and a thousynde rammes, and a thousynde lambren, with her fletynge sacrifices, and al the custom, most plenteuously, in to al Israel.
22 那天，他們在上主面前，歡天喜地地吃喝，以後，他們二次立達味的兒子撒羅滿為王，給他傅油，為上主作人君；又給匝多克傅油，立他為大司祭。
And thei eten and drunken bifor the Lord in that dai, with greet gladnesse. And thei anoyntiden the secounde tyme Salomon, the sone of Dauid; and thei anoyntiden hym in to prince to the Lord, and Sadoch in to bischop.
23 於是撒羅滿坐在上主的寶座上，代他父親達味為王；他非常順利，全以色列都服從他。
And Salomon sat on the trone of the Lord in to kyng, for Dauid, his fadir; and it pleside alle men, and al Israel obeiede to hym.
24 所有的首領、勇士以及達味王所有的兒子，都屬撒羅滿王權下。
But also alle princes, and myyti men, and alle the sones of kyng Dauid, yauen hond, and weren suget to `Salomon the kyng.
25 上主在全以色列民眾面前，特別高舉了撒羅滿，賜予他君王的威嚴，勝過以前所有的以色列君王。[達味逝世]
Therfor the Lord magnefiede Salomon on al Israel, and yaue to hym glorie of the rewme, what maner glorie no kyng of Israel hadde bifor hym.
26 葉瑟的兒子達味統治了全以色列，
Therfor Dauid, the sone of Ysai, regnede on al Israel;
27 統治以色列為時凡四十年：在赫貝龍為王七年，在耶路撒冷為王三十三年。
and the daies in whiche he regnede on Israel weren fourti yeer; in Ebron he regnede seuene yeer, and in Jerusalem thre and thretti yeer.
28 他死時年紀很大，享了高壽和榮華富貴；他的兒子撒羅滿繼位為王。
And he diede in good eelde, and was ful of daies, and richessis, and glorie; and Salomon, his sone, regnede for hym.
29 達味王的前後事蹟，都記載在先見者撒慕爾言行錄、先知納堂言行錄和先見者加得言行錄上。
Forsothe the formere and the laste dedis of Dauid ben writun in the book of Samuel, the prophete, and in the book of Nathan, prophete, and in the book of Gad, the prophete;
30 他與國家有關的大事、他的武功，以及他與以色列和四鄰各國所經歷的史事，全都記載在這些書上。
and of al his rewme, and strengthe, and tymes, that passiden vndur hym, ethir in Israel, ethir in alle rewmes of londis.
