2 Chronicles 2
1 Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the Name of the LORD and a royal palace for himself.
decrevit autem Salomon aedificare domum nomini Domini et palatium sibi
2 So he conscripted 70,000 porters, 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 supervisors.
et numeravit septuaginta milia virorum portantium umeris et octoginta milia qui caederent lapides in montibus praepositosque eorum tria milia sescentos
3 Then Solomon sent word to Hiram king of Tyre: “Do for me as you did for my father David when you sent him cedars to build himself a house to live in.
misit quoque ad Hiram regem Tyri dicens sicut egisti cum David patre meo et misisti ei ligna cedrina ut aedificaret sibi domum in qua et habitavit
4 Behold, I am about to build a house for the Name of the LORD my God to dedicate to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him, for displaying the showbread continuously, and for making burnt offerings every morning and evening as well as on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts of the LORD our God. This is ordained for Israel forever.
sic fac mecum ut aedificem domum nomini Domini Dei mei et consecrem eam ad adolendum incensum coram illo et fumiganda aromata et ad propositionem panum sempiternam et holocaustomata mane et vespere sabbatis quoque et neomeniis et sollemnitatibus Domini Dei nostri in sempiternum quae mandata sunt Israheli
5 The house that I am building will be great, for our God is greater than all gods.
domus autem quam aedificare cupio magna est magnus est enim Deus noster super omnes deos
6 But who is able to build a house for Him, since the heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain Him? Who then am I, that I should build a house for Him, except as a place to burn sacrifices before Him?
quis ergo poterit praevalere ut aedificet ei dignam domum si caelum et caeli caelorum capere eum non queunt quantus ego sum ut possim ei aedificare domum sed ad hoc tantum ut adoleatur incensum coram illo
7 Send me, therefore, a craftsman skilled in engraving to work with gold and silver, with bronze and iron, and with purple, crimson, and blue yarn. He will work with my craftsmen in Judah and Jerusalem, whom my father David provided.
mitte igitur mihi virum eruditum qui noverit operari in auro et argento aere ferro purpura coccino et hyacintho et qui sciat scalpere celata cum his artificibus quos mecum habeo in Iudaea et in Hierusalem quos praeparavit David pater meus
8 Send me also cedar, cypress, and algum logs from Lebanon, for I know that your servants have skill to cut timber there. And indeed, my servants will work with yours
sed et ligna cedrina mitte mihi et arceuthina et pinea de Libano scio enim quod servi tui noverint caedere ligna de Libano et erunt servi mei cum servis tuis
9 to prepare for me timber in abundance, because the temple I am building will be great and wonderful.
ut parentur mihi ligna plurima domus enim quam cupio aedificare magna est nimis et inclita
10 I will pay your servants, the woodcutters, 20,000 cors of ground wheat, 20,000 cors of barley, 20,000 baths of wine, and 20,000 baths of olive oil.”
praeterea operariis qui caesuri sunt ligna servis tuis dabo in cibaria tritici choros viginti milia et hordei choros totidem olei quoque sata viginti milia
11 Then Hiram king of Tyre wrote a letter in reply to Solomon: “Because the LORD loves His people, He has set you over them as king.”
dixit autem Hiram rex Tyri per litteras quas miserat Salomoni quia dilexit Dominus populum suum idcirco te regnare fecit super eum
12 And Hiram added: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth! He has given King David a wise son with insight and understanding, who will build a temple for the LORD and a royal palace for himself.
et addidit dicens benedictus Dominus Deus Israhel qui fecit caelum et terram qui dedit David regi filium sapientem et eruditum et sensatum atque prudentem ut aedificaret domum Domino et palatium sibi
13 So now I am sending you Huram-abi, a skillful man endowed with creativity.
misi ergo tibi virum prudentem et scientissimum Hiram patrem meum
14 He is the son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, and his father is a man of Tyre. He is skilled in work with gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple, blue, and crimson yarn, and fine linen. He is experienced in every kind of engraving and can execute any design that is given him. He will work with your craftsmen and with those of my lord, your father David.
filium mulieris de filiabus Dan cuius pater Tyrius fuit qui noverit operari in auro et argento et aere et ferro et marmore et lignis in purpura quoque et hyacintho et bysso et coccino et qui sciat celare omnem scalpturam et adinvenire prudenter quodcumque in opere necessarium est cum artificibus tuis et cum artificibus domini mei David patris tui
15 Now let my lord send to his servants the wheat, barley, olive oil, and wine he promised.
triticum ergo et hordeum et oleum et vinum quae pollicitus es domine mi mitte servis tuis
16 We will cut logs from Lebanon, as many as you need, and we will float them to you as rafts by sea down to Joppa. Then you can take them up to Jerusalem.”
nos autem caedemus ligna de Libano quot necessaria habueris et adplicabimus ea ratibus per mare in Ioppe tuum erit transferre ea in Hierusalem
17 Solomon numbered all the foreign men in the land of Israel following the census his father David had conducted, and there were found to be 153,600 in all.
numeravit igitur Salomon omnes viros proselytos qui erant in terra Israhel post dinumerationem quam dinumeravit David pater eius et inventi sunt centum quinquaginta milia et tria milia sescenti
18 Solomon made 70,000 of them porters, 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 supervisors.
fecitque ex eis septuaginta milia qui umeris onera portarent et octoginta milia qui lapides in montibus caederent tria milia autem et sescentos praepositos operum populi
