< 2 Chronicles 8 >
1 Now at the end of twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up the house of the Lord and a house for himself,
Pripetilo se je ob koncu dvajsetih let, v katerih je Salomon zgradil Gospodovo hišo in svojo lastno hišo,
2 He took in hand the building up of the towns which Huram had given him, causing the children of Israel to make living-places for themselves there.
da je mesta, ki jih je Hurám povrnil Salomonu, Salomon pozidal in Izraelovim otrokom velel, da prebivajo tam.
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and overcame it.
Salomon je odšel v Hamát Cobo in prevladal zoper njo.
4 And he put up the buildings of Tadmor in the waste land, and of all the store-towns in Hamath;
Zgradil je Tadmór v divjini in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je zgradil v Hamátu.
5 And of Beth-horon the higher and the lower, walled towns with walls and doorways and locks;
Zgradil je tudi zgornji Bet Horón in spodnji Bet Horón, utrjeni mesti, z obzidji, velikimi vrati in zapahi,
6 And of Baalath, and all the store-towns which Solomon had, and the towns where he kept his war-carriages and his horse men, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.
ter Baalát in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je imel Salomon in vsa mesta bojnih vozov in mesta konjenikov in vse, kar je Salomon želel zgraditi v Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu in po vsej deželi svojega gospostva.
7 As for all the rest of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel:
Glede vsega ljudstva, ki je preostalo od Hetejcev, Amoréjcev, Perizéjcev, Hivéjcev in Jebusejcev, ki niso bili iz Izraela,
8 Their men who were still living in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not put an end to, these Solomon put to forced work, as is done to this day;
temveč od njihovih otrok, ki so za njimi ostali v deželi, katerih Izraelovi otroci niso ugonobili, te je Salomon primoral, da plačujejo davek do tega dne.
9 But Solomon did not make use of the children of Israel as servants for his work; they were men of war, his chiefs and his captains, and captains of his war-carriages and his horsemen.
Toda izmed Izraelovih otrok Salomon ni naredil nobenega služabnika za svoje delo, temveč so bili bojevniki, vodje poveljnikov, poveljniki njegovih bojnih vozov in konjeniki.
10 Now these were the chief men in authority whom King Solomon had: two hundred and fifty of them, in authority over the people.
Ti so bili vodje častnikov kralja Salomona, celó dvesto petdeset, ki so nadzorovali ljudstvo.
11 Then Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her; for he said, I will not have my wife living in the house of David, king of Israel, because those places where the ark of the Lord has come are holy.
Salomon je iz Davidovega mesta privedel gor faraonovo hčer v hišo, ki jo je zgradil zanjo, kajti rekel je: »Moja žena ne bo prebivala v hiši Izraelovega kralja Davida, ker so prostori, kamor je prišla Gospodova skrinja, sveti.«
12 Then Solomon made burned offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord which he had put up in front of the covered way,
Potem je Salomon daroval žgalne daritve Gospodu, na Gospodovem oltarju, ki ga je zgradil pred preddverjem,
13 Offering every day what had been ordered by Moses, on the Sabbaths and at the new moon and at the regular feasts three times a year, that is at the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tents.
celo po določeni meri so vsak dan darovali glede na Mojzesovo zapoved na šabate, na mlaje, na slovesne praznike, trikrat letno, torej na praznik nekvašenega kruha, na praznik tednov in na šotorski praznik.
14 And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.
Glede na red svojega očeta Davida je določil skupine duhovnikov k njihovi službi in Lévijevce k njihovim zadolžitvam, da hvalijo in služijo pred duhovniki, kakor je zahtevala dolžnost vsakega dne. Tudi vratarje po njihovih skupinah pri vsakih velikih vratih, kajti tako je zapovedal David, Božji mož.
15 All the orders given by the king to the priests and Levites, in connection with any business or stores, were done with care.
Niso se odvrnili od kraljeve zapovedi glede katerekoli zadeve duhovnikov in Lévijevcev ali glede zakladnic.
16 And all the work of Solomon was complete, from the day when he put the base of the Lord's house in position, till Solomon had come to the end of building the Lord's house.
Torej vse Salomonovo delo je bilo pripravljeno do dneva [položitve] temelja Gospodove hiše in dokler ta ni bila dokončana. Tako je bila Gospodova hiša popolna.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth by the sea in the land of Edom.
Potem je Salomon odšel v Ecjón Geber in v Elot pri morski obali v edómski deželi.
18 And Huram sent him, by his servants, ships and experienced seamen, who went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and came back with four hundred and fifty talents of gold, which they took to King Solomon.
Hurám mu je po roki svojih služabnikov poslal ladje in služabnike, ki so imeli znanje o morju, in ti so s Salomonovimi služabniki odšli v Ofír in od tam vzeli štiristo petdeset talentov zlata ter jih prinesli kralju Salomonu.
