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.
And David assembled all the officials of Israel, the officials of the tribes, and the officers of the companies who served the king by division, and the commanders of thousands, and the commanders of hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possessions of the king and of his sons, with the officers, and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valor, to Jerusalem.
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 David the king stood up on his feet, and said, "Hear me, my brothers, and my people. As for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of YHWH, and for the footstool of our God; and I had prepared for the building.
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 shall not build a house for my name, because you are a man of war, and have shed 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.
However YHWH, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For he has chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me 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.
Of all my sons (for YHWH has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of YHWH's kingdom 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.
He said to me, 'Solomon, your son, shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be 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 continues to do my commandments and my ordinances, as at 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.
Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of YHWH, and in the audience of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of YHWH your God; that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you 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.
You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for YHWH searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.
10 Uvidi sada da te Jahve izabrao da gradiš Dom za Svetište, budi junak i radi!”
Consider now, for YHWH has chosen you to build a house for him as a 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 to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch of the temple, and of its houses, and of its treasuries, and of the upper rooms of it, and of the inner rooms of it, and of the place of 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,
and the pattern of all that he had by the Spirit, for the courts of the house of YHWH, and for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of God's house, and for the treasuries of the dedicated things;
13 za svećeničke i levitske redove, za svaki posao u službi oko Doma Jahvina:
also for the divisions of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of YHWH, and for all the vessels of service in the house of YHWH;
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;
of gold by weight for the gold, for all vessels of every kind of service; for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of 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;
by weight also for the lampstands of gold, and for its lamps, of gold, by weight for every lampstand and for its lamps; and for the lampstands of silver, by weight for every lampstand and for its lamps, according to the use of every lampstand;
16 zlato u šipkama za stolove na kojima će stajati prineseni hljebovi, za svaki stol; srebro za srebrne stolove,
and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;
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,
and the forks, and the basins, and the cups, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;
18 za kadioni žrtvenik žeženoga zlata u šipkama; za uzorak od kola sa zlatnim kerubinima koji će raširenim krilima zaklanjati Jahvin Kovčeg.
and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot, the cherubim that spread out their wings and covered the ark of the covenant of YHWH.
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, "I have been made to understand in writing from the hand of YHWH, even all the works of this pattern."
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 said to Solomon his son, "Be strong and courageous, and do it. Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed; for YHWH God, even my God, is with you. He will not leave you or forsake you, until all the work for the service of the house of YHWH 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.”
Look, there are the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the service of God's house. There shall be with you in all kinds of work every willing man who has skill, for any kind of service. Also the captains and all the people will be entirely at your command."
