2 Ljetopisa 8
1 A kad je prošlo dvadeset godina, za koliko je vremena Salomon podigao Jahvin Dom i svoj dvor,
And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the house of the Lord, and his own house,
2 posagradio je Salomon gradove, koje je dao Salomonu Hiram, i naselio ondje Izraelove sinove.
That [as regardeth] the cities which Churam had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3 Potom otiđe Salomon na Sopski Hamat i osvoji ga.
And Solomon went to Chamath-zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 Sagradi Tadmor u pustinji i svakojaka mjesta za skladišta u Hamatu.
And he built Thadmor in the wilderness, and all the treasure-cities, which he built in Chamath.
5 Sagradi i Gornji Bet Horon i Donji Bet Horon, tvrde gradove sa zidovima, vratima i prijevornicama;
And he built the upper Beth-choron, and the lower Beth-choron, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
6 i Baalat, i sve gradove u kojima je imao skladišta, sve gradove za bojna kola i gradove za konjanike i što je god Salomon zaželio da gradi u Jeruzalemu i na Libanonu i po svoj zemlji svojega kraljevstva.
And Ba'alath, and all the treasure-cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for chariots, and the cities for horsemen, and all the [other] desire of Solomon which he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in the Lebanon, and throughout all the land of his dominion.
7 Svim preostalim Hetitima, Amorejcima, Perižanima, Hivijcima i Jebusejcima, koji nisu bili Izraelci,
All the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Emorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel,
8 sinovima njihovim koji ostadoše iza njih u zemlji i koje Izraelci nisu zatrli - Salomon nametnu tlaku do današnjega dana.
Out of their children, who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel had not destroyed—these did Solomon levy as tributary [laborers] until this day.
9 Sinove Izraelove nije Salomon pretvarao u robove za posao, nego su bili vojnici, zapovjednici njegovih štitonoša i zapovjednici bojnih kola i konjice.
Yet of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen for his work; but they were men of war, and chiefs of his captains; and officers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 Bili su poglavari nad upravnicima, kojih je kralj Salomon imao dvjesta i pedeset, i upravljali su narodom.
And these were the chiefs of the superintendents whom king Solomon had, [even] two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 Salomon preseli i faraonovu kćer iz Davidova grada u kuću koju joj bijaše sagradio, jer je mislio: “Neće moja žena živjeti u dvoru izraelskoga kralja Davida, jer je svet otkako je u nj došao Kovčeg Jahvin.”
And the daughter of Pharaoh did Solomon bring up out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her; for he said, No wife of mine shall dwell in a house of David the king of Israel, because they are holy, because there came [once] unto them the ark of the Lord.
12 Tada Salomon poče prinositi paljenice Jahvi na Jahvinu žrtveniku što ga bijaše sagradio pred trijemom,
Then did Solomon offer burnt-offerings unto the Lord on the altar of the Lord, which he had built before the porch,
13 i to koliko je trebalo iz dana u dan da prinese po Mojsijevoj zapovijedi, u subote, i na mlađake, i na blagdane tri puta u godini, na Blagdan beskvasnih kruhova, i na Blagdan sedmica, i na Blagdan sjenica.
Even according to what was the due of [every] day on its day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new-moons, and on the stated festivals, three times in the year, on the feast of unleavened bread, and on the feast of weeks, and on the feast of tabernacles.
14 Postavio je, po uredbi oca Davida, svećeničke redove po njihovoj službi i levitske po njihovim dužnostima da pjevaju hvale i da služe pred svećenicima, koliko treba iz dana u dan, i vratare po njihovim redovima na svakim vratima, jer je takva bila zapovijed Božjega čovjeka Davida.
And he stationed, according to the prescription of David his father, the divisions of the priests at their service, and the Levites at their stations, to praise and minister next to the priests, in the requirement of every day on its day, and the gate-keepers in their divisions at every gate; for so was the charge of David the man of God.
15 Nisu odstupili od kraljeve zapovijedi za svećenike i levite ni u čemu, ni za riznice.
And they departed not from the charge of the king concerning the priests and Levites respecting every matter, and respecting the treasuries.
16 Tako se svršio sav Salomonov posao od dana kad je bio zasnovan Dom Jahvin pa dokle ga god nije dovršio. Tako bijaše dovršen Dom Jahvin.
And [so] was all the work of Solomon successful from the day of founding the house of the Lord, even until it was finished. [So] was perfected the house of the Lord.
17 Tada je Salomon otišao u Esjon-Geber i u Elat na morskoj obali u zemlji edomskoj.
Then went Solomon to 'Ezyon-geber, and to Eloth, at the sea-shore in the land of Edom.
18 A Hiram mu je poslao po slugama lađe i mornare vične moru te su otišli sa Salomonovim slugama u Ofir; uzeše odande četiri stotine i pedeset talenata zlata i donesoše ih kralju Salomonu.
And Churam sent him by means of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and they fetched away thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought the same to king Solomon.
