1 Ljetopisa 28
1 David sakupi u Jeruzalem sve izraelske knezove, plemenske knezove i poglavare od redova koji su služili kralja, tisućnike, stotnike i nadstojnike nad svim imanjem i blagom kraljevim i blagom njegovih sinova, zajedno s dvoranima i junacima i svim hrabrim vojnicima.
Now David summoned all the leaders of Israel to Jerusalem: the leaders of the tribes, the leaders of the divisions in the king’s service, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and cattle of the king and his sons, along with the court officials and mighty men—every mighty man of valor.
2 Ustavši na noge, kralj David reče: “Čujte me, moja braćo i moj narode! Ja sam bio namislio u svom srcu da sagradim dom gdje bi počivao Kovčeg saveza Jahvina i da bude podnožje nogama našega Boga te sam pripravio što treba za gradnju.
Then King David rose to his feet and said, “Listen to me, my brothers and my people. It was in my heart to build a house as a resting place for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and as a footstool for our God. I had made preparations to build it,
3 Ali mi je Bog rekao: 'Nećeš ti sagraditi Doma mome imenu jer si ratnik i prolijevao si krv.'
but God said to me, ‘You are not to build a house for My Name, because you are a man of war who has spilled blood.’
4 Jahve, Izraelov Bog, izabrao je mene od sveg moga roda da budem kralj nad Izraelom zauvijek; jer je Judu izabrao za kneza, a iz Judina doma dom moga oca; između sinova moga oca bilo mu je drago da mene postavi kraljem nad svim Izraelom.
Yet the LORD, the God of Israel, chose me out of all my father’s house to be king over Israel forever. For He chose Judah as leader, and from the house of Judah He chose my father’s household, and from my father’s sons He was pleased to make me king over all Israel.
5 Tako je između mojih sinova, jer mi je mnogo sinova dao Jahve, izabrao moga sina Salomona da sjedi na prijestolju Jahvina kraljevstva nad Izraelom.
And of all my sons—for the LORD has given me many sons—He has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
6 I rekao mi je: 'Tvoj sin Salomon sagradit će meni Dom i moja predvorja; jer sam njega izabrao sebi za sina i ja ću mu biti otac.
And He said to me, ‘Solomon your son is the one who will build My house and My courts, for I have chosen him as My son, and I will be his Father.
7 Utvrdit ću njegovo kraljevstvo zauvijek ako bude postojano vršio moje zapovijedi i moje zakone kao danas.'
I will establish his kingdom forever, if he resolutely carries out My commandments and ordinances, as is being done this day.’
8 Sada, dakle, pred očima sveg Izraela, Jahvina zbora, i pred svojim Bogom, koji nas sluša, velim: držite i tražite sve zapovijedi Jahve, svoga Boga, da biste zadržali u posjedu ovu dobru zemlju i ostavili je u baštinu svojim sinovima nakon sebe dovijeka.
So now in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of the LORD, and in the hearing of our God, keep and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God, so that you may possess this good land and leave it as an inheritance to your descendants forever.
9 A ti, sine moj Salomone, poznaj Boga, svoga oca, i služi mu čitavim srcem i spremnom dušom, jer Jahve ispituje sva srca i zna sve misli i namjere; ako ga budeš tražio, dat će ti se da ga nađeš; ako li ga ostaviš, odbacit će te zauvijek.
As for you, Solomon my son, know the God of your father and serve Him wholeheartedly and with a willing mind, for the LORD searches every heart and understands the intent of every thought. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.
10 Uvidi sada da te Jahve izabrao da gradiš Dom za Svetište, budi junak i radi!”
Consider now that the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong and do it.”
11 Tada David predade sinu Salomonu uzorak trijema, njegovih kuća, riznica, gornjih soba, ćelija i doma Pomirilišta;
Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the portico of the temple, its buildings, storehouses, upper rooms, inner rooms, and the room for the mercy seat.
12 uzorak svega što bijaše smislio u duhu za predvorja Jahvina Doma, za sve sobe unaokolo, za riznicu Doma Božjega, za riznicu posvećenih stvari,
The plans contained everything David had in mind for the courts of the house of the LORD, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the house of God and of the dedicated things,
13 za svećeničke i levitske redove, za svaki posao u službi oko Doma Jahvina:
for the divisions of the priests and Levites, for all the work of service in the house of the LORD, and for all the articles of service in the house of the LORD:
14 zlato u šipkama, zlato potrebno za sve zlatno posuđe ove ili one službe; srebro u šipkama potrebno za sve srebrno posuđe, za sve posuđe ove ili one službe;
the weight of all the gold articles for every kind of service; the weight of all the silver articles for every kind of service;
15 šipke za zlatne svijećnjake sa zlatnim svjetiljkama, prema težini svakoga svijećnjaka i njegovih svjetiljaka, i za srebrne svijećnjake prema težini svakoga svijećnjaka i njegovih svjetiljaka i prema namjeni svakog svijećnjaka;
the weight of the gold lampstands and their lamps, including the weight of each lampstand and its lamps; the weight of each silver lampstand and its lamps, according to the use of each lampstand;
16 zlato u šipkama za stolove na kojima će stajati prineseni hljebovi, za svaki stol; srebro za srebrne stolove,
the weight of gold for each table of showbread, and of silver for the silver tables;
17 za viljuške i kotliće, za čaše od čista zlata, za zlatne pehare, zlato u šipkama za svaki pehar; za srebrne pehare, srebro u šipkama za svaki pehar,
the weight of the pure gold for the forks, sprinkling bowls, and pitchers; the weight of each gold dish; the weight of each silver bowl;
18 za kadioni žrtvenik žeženoga zlata u šipkama; za uzorak od kola sa zlatnim kerubinima koji će raširenim krilima zaklanjati Jahvin Kovčeg.
the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense; and the plans for the chariot of the gold cherubim that spread their wings and overshadowed the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
19 Sve to u skladu s onim što Jahve napisa vlastitom rukom da bi razjasnio cijelo djelo za koje on pribavi uzorak.
“All this,” said David, “all the details of this plan, the LORD has made clear to me in writing by His hand upon me.”
20 Tada David reče svome sinu Salomonu: “Budi junak, hrabar, i radi! Ne boj se i ne plaši se, jer će Jahve, Bog, moj Bog, biti s tobom! Neće te napustiti niti te ostaviti dok ne svršiš sav posao za službu oko Jahvina Doma.
David also said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do it. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will neither fail you nor forsake you before all the work for the service of the house of the LORD is finished.
21 Evo svećeničkih i levitskih redova za svaku službu u Božjem Domu; imaš uza se za svaki posao svakovrsnih ljudi, spremnih i vještih svakoj službi, knezovi i sav narod pod tvojim su zapovjedništvom.”
The divisions of the priests and Levites are ready for all the service of the house of God, and every willing man of every skill will be at your disposal for the work. The officials and all the people are fully at your command.”
