< Chronicles II 2 >
1 And Solomon said that he would build a house to the name of the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.
decrevit autem Salomon aedificare domum nomini Domini et palatium sibi
2 And Solomon gathered seventy thousand men that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers of stone in the mountain, and [there were] three thousand and six hundred superintendents over them.
et numeravit septuaginta milia virorum portantium umeris et octoginta milia qui caederent lapides in montibus praepositosque eorum tria milia sescentos
3 And Solomon sent to Chiram king of Tyre, saying, Whereas you did deal [favourably] with David my father, and did send him cedars to build for himself a house to dwell 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 also his son am building a house to the name of the Lord my God, to consecrate it to him, to burn incense before him, and [to offer] show bread continually, and to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts of the Lord our God: this [is] a perpetual [statute] for Israel.
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 And the house which I am building [is to be] great: for the Lord our God [is] great beyond all gods.
domus autem quam aedificare cupio magna est magnus est enim Deus noster super omnes deos
6 And who will be able to build him a house? for the heaven and heaven of heavens do not bear his glory: and who am I, that I should build him a house, save only to burn incense 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 And now send me a man wise and skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and in scarlet, and in blue, and one that knows how to grave together with the craftsmen who are with me in Juda and in Jerusalem, which materials my father David prepared.
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 And send me from Libanus cedar wood, and wood of juniper, and pine; for I know that your servants are skilled in cutting timber in Libanus: and, behold, your servants shall go with my servants,
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 timber for me in abundance: for the house which I am building [must be] great and glorious.
ut parentur mihi ligna plurima domus enim quam cupio aedificare magna est nimis et inclita
10 And, behold, I have given freely to your servants that work and cut the wood, corn for food, [even] twenty thousand measures of wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand measures of wine, and twenty thousand measures of 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 And Chiram king of Tyre answered in writing, and sent to Solomon, saying, Because the Lord loved his people, he made you king over them.
dixit autem Hiram rex Tyri per litteras quas miserat Salomoni quia dilexit Dominus populum suum idcirco te regnare fecit super eum
12 And Chiram said, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to king David a wise son, and one endowed with knowledge and understanding, who shall build a house for the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.
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 And now I have sent you a wise and understanding man [who belonged] to Chiram my father
misi ergo tibi virum prudentem et scientissimum Hiram patrem meum
14 (his mother [was] of the daughters of Dan, and his father [was] a Tyrian), skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in stones and wood; and to weave with purple, and blue, and fine linen, and scarlet; and to engrave, and to understand every device, whatever you shall give him [to do] with your craftsmen, and the craftsmen of my lord David your father.
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 And now, the wheat, and the barley, and the oil, and the wine which my lord mentioned, let him send to his servants.
triticum ergo et hordeum et oleum et vinum quae pollicitus es domine mi mitte servis tuis
16 And we will cut timber out of Libanus according to all your need, and we will bring it on rafts to the sea of Joppa, and you shall bring it 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 And Solomon gathered all the foreigners that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them; and there were found a hundred and fifty-three thousand and six hundred.
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 And he made of them seventy thousand burden-bearers, and eighty thousand hewers of stone, and three thousand and six hundred taskmasters over the people.
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
