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.

King David said to the whole assembly, “Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is still young and inexperienced, and the task is great. For the temple is not for people but for Yahweh 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.

So I have done my best to provide for the temple of my God. I am giving gold for the things to be made of gold, silver for the things to be made of silver, bronze for the things to be made of bronze, iron for the things to be made of iron, and wood for the things to be made of wood. I am also giving onyx stones, stones to be set, stones for inlaid work of various colors—all kinds of precious stones—and marble stone 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:

Now, because of my delight in the house of my God, I am giving my personal treasure of gold and silver for it. I am doing this in addition to all that I have prepared for this holy temple:

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

three thousand talents of gold from Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, in order to overlay the walls of the buildings.

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?«

I am donating gold for the things to be made of gold, and silver for the things to be made of silver, and things for all kinds of work to be done by craftsmen. Who else wants to make a contribution to Yahweh today and give himself to him?”

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

Then freewill offerings were made by the leaders of their ancestors' families, the leaders of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and hundreds, and by the officials over the king's work.

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;

They gave for the service of God's house five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of bronze, and 100,000 talents of iron.

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

Those who had precious stones gave them to the treasury of Yahweh's house, under the supervision of Jehiel, a descendant of Gershon.

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.

The people rejoiced because of these freewill offerings, because they had contributed wholeheartedly to Yahweh. King David also rejoiced greatly.

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

David blessed Yahweh in front of all the assembly. He said, “May you be praised, Yahweh, God of Israel our ancestor, 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, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. For all that is in the heavens and on the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as ruler over 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 people. In your hand is power and might. You possess the strength and might to make people great and to give strength to anyone.

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

Now then, 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 who are my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly these things? Indeed, all things come from you, and we have simply given back to you what is yours.

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 and travelers before you, as all our ancestors were. Our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope of remaining on earth.

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.

Yahweh our God, all this wealth that we have collected in order to build a temple to honor your holy name—it comes from you and belongs to you.

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 examine the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things, and now I look with joy as your people who are present here willingly offer gifts 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!

Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel—our ancestors—keep this forever in the thoughts of the minds of your people. Direct their hearts toward 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!«

Give to Solomon my son a wholehearted desire to keep your commandments, your covenant decrees, and your statutes, and to carry out all these plans 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 Yahweh your God.” All the assembly blessed Yahweh, the God of their ancestors, bowed their heads and worshiped Yahweh and prostrated themselves before 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;

On the next day, they made sacrifices to Yahweh and offered burnt offerings to him. They offered a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, and a 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;

On that day, they ate and drank before Yahweh with great celebration. They made Solomon, David's son, king a second time, and anointed him with Yahweh's authority to be ruler. They also anointed 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 Yahweh's throne as king instead of David his father. He prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.

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

All the leaders, soldiers, and King David's sons gave allegiance to King Solomon.

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.

Yahweh greatly honored Solomon before all Israel and bestowed on him greater power than he had ever given to any king before him in Israel.

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

David 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.

David had been king of Israel for forty years. He ruled for seven years in Hebron and for 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 at a good old age, after enjoying a long life, wealth and honor. Solomon his son succeeded him.

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

King David's accomplishments are written in the history of Samuel the prophet, in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the prophet.

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

Recorded there are the deeds of his rule, his accomplishments and the events that affected him, Israel, and all the kingdoms of the other lands.
