2 Chronicles 8
1 Now at the end of the twenty years during which Solomon had built the house of the LORD and his own palace,
Da de tyve Aar var omme, i hvilke Salomo havde bygget paa HERRENS Hus og sit Palads —
2 Solomon rebuilt the cities Hiram had given him and settled Israelites there.
ogsaa de Byer, Huram afstod til Salomo, befæstede Salomo og lod Israeliterne bosætte sig i dem —
3 Then Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and captured it.
drog Salomo til Hamat-Zoba og indtog det.
4 He built Tadmor in the wilderness, in addition to all the store cities that he had built in Hamath.
Han befæstede ogsaa Tadmor i Ørkenen og alle de Forraadsbyer, han byggede i Hamat;
5 He rebuilt Upper and Lower Beth-horon as fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars,
ligeledes genopbyggede han Øvre— og Nedre-Bet-Horon, saa de blev Fæstninger med Mure, Porte og Portslaaer,
6 as well as Baalath, all the store cities that belonged to Solomon, and all the cities for his chariots and horses —whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout the land of his dominion.
ligeledes Ba'alat og alle Salomos Forraadsbyer, Vognbyerne og Rytterbyerne, og alt andet, som Salomo fik Lyst til at bygge i Jerusalem, i Libanon og i hele sit Rige.
7 As for all the people who remained of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites (the people who were not Israelites)—
Alt, hvad der var tilbage af Hetiterne, Amoriterne, Perizziterne, Hivviterne og Jebusiterne, og som ikke hørte til Israeliterne,
8 their descendants who remained in the land, those whom the Israelites were unable to destroy—Solomon conscripted these people to be forced laborers, as they are to this day.
deres Efterkommere, som var tilbage efter dem i Landet, og som Israeliterne ikke havde tilintetgjort, dem udskrev Salomo til Hoveriarbejde, som det er den Dag i Dag.
9 But Solomon did not consign any of the Israelites to slave labor, because they were his men of war, his officers and captains, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
Af Israeliterne derimod gjorde Salomo ingen til Arbejdstrælle for sig, men de var Krigsfolk, Hærførere og Vognkæmpere hos ham og Førere for hans Stridsvogne og Rytteri.
10 They were also the chief officers for King Solomon: 250 supervisors.
Tallet paa Kong Salomos Overfogeder var 250; de havde Tilsyn med Folkene.
11 Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh up from the City of David to the palace he had built for her. For he said, “My wife must not live in the house of David king of Israel, because the places the ark of the LORD has entered are holy.”
Faraos Datter flyttede Salomo fra Davidsbyen ind i det Hus, han havde bygget til hende; thi han tænkte: »Jeg vil ikke have en Kvinde boende i Kong David af Israels Palads, thi hellige er de Steder, hvor HERRENS Ark kommer.«
12 At that time Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of the LORD he had built in front of the portico.
Nu ofrede Salomo Brændofre til HERREN paa HERRENS Alter, som han Havde bygget foran Forhallen,
13 He observed the daily requirement for offerings according to the commandment of Moses for Sabbaths, New Moons, and the three annual appointed feasts—the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles.
idet han ofrede, som det efter Moses's Bud hørte sig til hver enkelt Dag, paa Sabbaterne, Nymaanedagene og Højtiderne tre Gange om Aaret, de usyrede Brøds Højtid, Ugernes Højtid og Løvhytternes Højtid.
14 In keeping with the ordinances of his father David, Solomon appointed the divisions of the priests over their service, and the Levites for their duties to offer praise and to minister before the priests according to the daily requirement. He also appointed gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate, for this had been the command of David, the man of God.
Og efter den Ordning, hans Fader David havde truffet, satte han Præsternes Skifter til deres Arbejde og Leviterne til deres Tjeneste, til at synge Lovsangen og gaa Præsterne til Haande efter hver Dags Behov, ligeledes Dørvogterne efter deres Skifter til at holde Vagt ved de enkelte Porte; thi saaledes var den Guds Mand Davids Bud.
15 They did not turn aside from the king’s command regarding the priests or the Levites or any matter concerning the treasuries.
Og man fraveg ikke i mindste Maade Kongens Bud vedrørende Præsterne og Leviterne og Skatkamrene.
16 Thus all the work of Solomon was carried out, from the day the foundation was laid for the house of the LORD until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was completed.
Saaledes fuldendtes hele Salomos Værk, fra den Dag Grundvolden lagdes til HERRENS Hus, til Salomo var færdig med HERRENS Hus.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth on the coast of Edom.
Ved den Tid drog Salomo til Ezjongeber og Elot ved Edoms Kyst;
18 So Hiram sent him ships captained by his servants, along with crews of experienced sailors. They went with Solomon’s servants to Ophir and acquired from there 450 talents of gold, which they delivered to King Solomon.
og Huram sendte ham Folk med Skibe og befarne Søfolk, der sammen med Salomos Folk sejlede til Ofir, hvor de hentede 450 Talenter Guld, som de bragte Kong Salomo.
