1 Chronicles 29
1 And David the king said to all the people, Solomon my son, the only one who has been marked out by God, is still young and untested, and the work is great, for this great house is not for man, but for the Lord God.
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.
2 Now as far as I am able, I have made ready what is needed for the house of my God; the gold for the things of gold, and the silver for the silver things, and the brass for the brass things, iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood; beryls and jewels to be framed, and stones of different colours for ornament; all sorts of stones of great price, and polished building-stone, as much as is needed and more.
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.
3 And because this house of God is dear to me, I give my private store of gold and silver to the house of my God, in addition to all I have got ready for the holy house;
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:
4 Even three thousand talents of gold of Ophir and seven thousand talents of the best silver, for plating the walls of the house:
3000 Talenter Guld, Ofirguld, og 7000 Talenter lutret Sølv til at overtrække Bygningernes Vægge med,
5 Gold for the gold things, and silver for the silver things, and for every sort of work to be done by the expert workmen. Who then will come forward, offering himself this day for the Lord's work?
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?«
6 Then the heads of families and the chiefs of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the controllers of the king's business, freely gave themselves;
Da kom Øversterne for Fædrenehusene, Øversterne for Israels Stammer, Tusind— og Hundredførerne og Øversterne i Kongens Tjeneste frivilligt
7 And they gave for the use of the house of the Lord, five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron.
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;
8 And those who had stones of great price gave them to the store of the house of the Lord, under the care of Jehiel the Gershonite.
og de, som ejede Ædelsten, gav dem til HERRENS Hus's Skat, der stod under Gersoniten Jehiels Tilsyn.
9 Then the people were glad because their offerings were freely given, for with a true heart they freely gave what they had to the Lord; and David the king was full of joy.
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.
10 So David gave praise to the Lord before all the people; and David said, Praise be to you, O Lord the God of Israel, our father for ever and ever.
Og David priste HERREN i hele Forsamlingens Nærværelse, og David sagde: »Lovet være du HERRE, vor Fader Israels Gud fra Evighed til Evighed!
11 Yours, O Lord, is the strength and the power and the glory, and the authority and the honour: for everything in heaven and on earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are lifted up as head over all.
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.
12 Wealth and honour come from you, and you are ruler over all, and in your hand is power and strength; it is in your power to make great, and to give strength to all.
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.
13 So now, our God, we give you praise, honouring the glory of your name.
Derfor priser vi dig nu, vor Gud, og lovsynger dit herlige Navn!
14 But who am I and what is my people, that we have power to give so freely in this way? for all things come from you, and what we have given you is yours.
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.
15 For we, as all our fathers were, are like men from a strange country before you, who have got a place for a time in the land; our days on the earth are like a shade, and there is no hope of going on.
Thi vi er fremmede for dit Aasyn og Gæster som alle vore Fædre; som en Skygge er vore Dage paa Jorden, uden Haab!
16 O Lord our God, all this store, which we have made ready for the building of a house for your holy name, comes from your hand and is yours.
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.
17 And I am conscious, my God, that you are the searcher of hearts, taking pleasure in righteousness. As for me, with an upright heart I have freely given all these things; and I have seen with joy your people who are here to make their offerings freely to you.
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.
18 O Lord, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the deepest thoughts of your people, and let their hearts be fixed and true to you;
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!
19 And give to Solomon my son a true heart, to keep your orders, your rules, and your laws, and to do all these things, and to put up this great house for which I have made ready.
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!«
20 And David said to all the people, Now give praise to the Lord your God. And all the people gave praise to the Lord, the God of their fathers, with bent heads worshipping the Lord and the king.
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.
21 And they made offerings to the Lord, and gave burned offerings to the Lord, on the day after, a thousand oxen, a thousand sheep, and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and a great wealth of offerings for all Israel.
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;
22 And with great joy they made a feast before the Lord that day. And they made Solomon, the son of David, king a second time, putting the holy oil on him to make him holy to the Lord as ruler, and on Zadok as priest.
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;
23 So Solomon was put on the seat of the Lord as king in place of his father David, and everything went well for him; and all Israel was under his authority.
og Salomo satte sig paa HERRENS Trone som Konge i sin Fader Davids Sted; Lykken var med ham, og hele Israel var ham lydigt;
24 And all the chiefs and the men of war and all the sons of King David put themselves under the authority of Solomon the king.
og alle Øversterne og Kærnetropperne, ligeledes alle Kong Davids Sønner hyldede Kong Salomo.
25 And the Lord made Solomon great in the eyes of all Israel, clothing him with glory and honour such as no other king in Israel had had before him.
HERREN gjorde Salomo overmaade mægtig for hele Israels Øjne og gav ham en kongelig Herlighed, som ingen Konge før ham havde haft i Israel.
26 Now David, the son of Jesse, was king over all Israel.
David, Isajs Søn, havde hersket over hele Israel.
27 For forty years he was ruling as king over Israel, seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Tiden, han var Konge over Israel, udgjorde fyrretyve Aar; i Hebron herskede han syv Aar, i Jerusalem tre og tredive Aar.
28 And he came to his end after a long life, full of days and great wealth and honour; and Solomon his son became king in his place.
Han døde i en god Alder, mæt af Dage, Rigdom og Ære; og hans Søn Salomo blev Konge i hans Sted.
29 Now all the acts of David, first and last, are recorded in the words of Samuel the seer, and the words of Nathan the prophet, and the words of Gad the seer;
Kong Davids Historie fra først til sidst staar optegnet i Seeren Samuels Krønike, Profeten Natans Krønike og Seeren Gads Krønike
30 Together with all his rule and his power, and the events which took place in his time, in Israel and in all the kingdoms of other lands.
tillige med hele hans Regering og hans Heltegerninger og de Tildragelser, som hændtes ham og Israel og alle Lande og Riger.
