Første Krønikebog 29

1 Fremdeles sagde Kong David til hele Forsamlingen: »Min Søn Salomo, som Gud har udvalgt, er ung og uudviklet, og Arbejdet er stort, thi Borgen er ikke bestemt for et Menneske, men for Gud HERREN.

David the king said to all the assembly, "Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great; for the palace is not for man, but for YHWH God.

2 Jeg har derfor sat al min Kraft ind paa til min Guds Hus at tilvejebringe Guldet, Sølvet, Kobberet, Jernet og Træet til det, der skal laves af Guld, Sølv, Kobber, Jern og Træ, desuden Sjohamsten og Indfatningssten, Rubiner, brogede Sten, alle Slags Ædelsten og Marmorsten i Mængde.

Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for the things of gold, and the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, stones for inlaid work, and of various colors, and all kinds of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.

3 I min Glæde over min Guds Hus giver jeg der hos til min Guds Hus, hvad jeg ejer af Guld og Sølv, ud over alt, hvad jeg har bragt til Veje til det hellige Hus:

In addition, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, since I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, I give it to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,

4 3000 Talenter Guld, Ofirguld, og 7000 Talenter lutret Sølv til at overtrække Bygningernes Vægge med,

even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, with which to overlay the walls of the houses;

5 Guldet til det, der skal forgyldes, og Sølvet til det, der skal forsølves, og til ethvert Arbejde, der skal udføres af Haandværkernes Haand. Hvem er nu villig til i Dag at bringe HERREN Gaver?«

of gold for the things of gold, and of silver for the things of silver, and for all kinds of work to be made by the hands of artisans. Who then offers willingly to consecrate himself this day to YHWH?"

6 Da kom Øversterne for Fædrenehusene, Øversterne for Israels Stammer, Tusind— og Hundredførerne og Øversterne i Kongens Tjeneste frivilligt

Then the leaders of the ancestral houses, and the leaders of the tribes of Israel, and the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, with the officers over the king's work, offered willingly;

7 og gav til Arbejdet paa Guds Hus 5000 Talenter og 10 000 Darejker Guld, 10 000 Talenter Sølv, 18 000 Talenter Kobber og 100 000 Talenter Jern;

and they gave for the service of God's house of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand darics, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of bronze eighteen thousand talents, and of iron a hundred thousand talents.

8 og de, som ejede Ædelsten, gav dem til HERRENS Hus's Skat, der stod under Gersoniten Jehiels Tilsyn.

They with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of YHWH, under the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

9 Og Folket glædede sig over deres Vilje til at give, thi af et helt Hjerte gav de HERREN frivillige Gaver; ogsaa Kong David følte stor Glæde.

Then the people rejoiced, because they offered willingly, because with a perfect heart they offered willingly to YHWH: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

10 Og David priste HERREN i hele Forsamlingens Nærværelse, og David sagde: »Lovet være du HERRE, vor Fader Israels Gud fra Evighed til Evighed!

Therefore David blessed YHWH before all the assembly; and David said, "You are blessed, YHWH, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.

11 Din, HERRE, er Storheden, Magten, Æren, Glansen og Herligheden, thi alt i Himmelen og paa Jorden er dit; dit, o HERRE, er Riget, og selv løfter du dig som Hoved over alle.

Yours, YHWH, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, YHWH, and you are exalted as head above all.

12 Rigdom og Ære kommer fra dig, og du hersker over alt; i din Haand er Kraft og Vælde, og i din Haand staar det at gøre, hvem det skal være, stor og stærk.

Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all; and in your hand is power and might; and it is in your hand to make great, and to give strength to all.

13 Derfor priser vi dig nu, vor Gud, og lovsynger dit herlige Navn!

Now therefore, our God, we thank you, and praise your glorious name.

14 Thi hvad er jeg, og hvad er mit Folk, at vi selv skulde evne at give saadanne frivillige Gaver? Fra dig kommer det alt sammen, og af din egen Haand har vi givet dig det.

But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.

15 Thi vi er fremmede for dit Aasyn og Gæster som alle vore Fædre; som en Skygge er vore Dage paa Jorden, uden Haab!

For we are strangers before you, and foreigners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no remaining.

16 HERRE vor Gud, al denne Rigdom, som vi har bragt til Veje for at bygge dit hellige Navn et Hus, fra din Haand kommer den, og dig tilhører det alt sammen.

YHWH our God, all this store that we have prepared to build you a house for your holy name comes from your hand, and is all your own.

17 Jeg ved, min Gud, at du prøver Hjerter og har Behag i Oprigtighed; af oprigtigt Hjerte har jeg villigt givet alt dette, og nu har jeg set med Glæde, at dit Folk, der er her til Stede, villigt har givet dig Gaver.

I know also, my God, that you try the heart, and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things. Now have I seen with joy your people, that are present here, offer willingly to you.

18 HERRE, vore Fædre Abrahams, Isaks og Israels Gud, bevar til evig Tid et saadant Sind og saadanne Tanker i dit Folks Hjerte og vend deres Hjerter til dig!

YHWH, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this forever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of your people, and prepare their heart for you;

19 Og giv min Søn Salomo et helt Hjerte til at holde dine Bud, Vidnesbyrd og Anordninger og udføre det alt sammen og bygge den Borg, jeg har truffet Forberedelser til at opføre!«

and give to Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision."

20 Derpaa sagde David til hele Forsamlingen: »Lov HERREN eders Gud!« Og hele Forsamlingen lovede HERREN, deres Fædres Gud, og kastede sig ned for HERREN og Kongen.

David said to all the assembly, "Now bless YHWH your God." All the assembly blessed YHWH, the God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads and prostrated themselves before YHWH and the king.

21 Saa ofrede de Slagtofre til HERREN, og Dagen efter bragte de ham som Brændoffer 1000 Tyre, 1000 Vædre og 1000 Lam med tilhørende Drikofre og en Mængde Slagtofre for hele Israel;

They sacrificed sacrifices to YHWH, and offered burnt offerings to YHWH, on the next day after that day, even one thousand bulls, one thousand rams, and one thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel,

22 og de spiste og drak den Dag for HERRENS Aasyn med stor Glæde. Derefter indsatte de paa ny Davids Søn til Konge, og de hyldede ham som HERRENS Fyrste og Zadok som Præst;

and ate and drink before YHWH on that day with great gladness. They made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and they anointed him to YHWH to be prince, and Zadok to be priest.

23 og Salomo satte sig paa HERRENS Trone som Konge i sin Fader Davids Sted; Lykken var med ham, og hele Israel var ham lydigt;

Then Solomon sat on the throne of YHWH as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.

24 og alle Øversterne og Kærnetropperne, ligeledes alle Kong Davids Sønner hyldede Kong Salomo.

And all the leaders, the mighty men, and also all of the sons of king David submitted themselves to Solomon the king.

25 HERREN gjorde Salomo overmaade mægtig for hele Israels Øjne og gav ham en kongelig Herlighed, som ingen Konge før ham havde haft i Israel.

YHWH magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

26 David, Isajs Søn, havde hersket over hele Israel.

Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

27 Tiden, han var Konge over Israel, udgjorde fyrretyve Aar; i Hebron herskede han syv Aar, i Jerusalem tre og tredive Aar.

The time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

28 Han døde i en god Alder, mæt af Dage, Rigdom og Ære; og hans Søn Salomo blev Konge i hans Sted.

He died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor: and Solomon his son reigned in his place.

29 Kong Davids Historie fra først til sidst staar optegnet i Seeren Samuels Krønike, Profeten Natans Krønike og Seeren Gads Krønike

Now the acts of David the king, first and last, look, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,

30 tillige med hele hans Regering og hans Heltegerninger og de Tildragelser, som hændtes ham og Israel og alle Lande og Riger.

with all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.
