1 Chronicles 22
1 And David said, “This is the house of God, and this is the altar for the holocaust of Israel.”
Zato David reče: “Ovo je Dom Jahve i ovo je žrtvenik za paljenice Izraelu!”
2 And he instructed them to gather all the new converts from the land of Israel. And from these he appointed stoneworkers, to hew stones and to polish them, so that he might build the house of God.
David zapovjedi da se skupe stranci koji su bili u izraelskoj zemlji i odredi klesare da propisno klešu kamenje za gradnju Doma Božjeg.
3 Also, David prepared very much iron to use for the nails of the gates, and for the seams and joints, as well as an immeasurable weight of brass.
David je pripravio mnogo željeza za čavle na vratnim krilima i za kvačice; i bez mjere mnogo tuča.
4 Also, the cedar trees, which the Sidonians and Tyrians had transported to David, were not able to be counted.
Mnogo cedrovine, jer su Sidonci i Tirci dovozili mnogo cedrovih drva Davidu.
5 And David said: “My son Solomon is a young and tender boy. But the house that I desire to be built to the Lord ought to be so great that it is renowned in every region. Therefore, I will prepare what will be necessary for him.” And for this reason, before his death, he prepared all the expenses.
Jer David mišljaše: “Moj je sin Salomon mlad i nježan, a Dom koji treba graditi Jahvi mora biti veličanstven, na slavu i čast po svim zemljama. Hajde da mu sve pripravim.” I David je pripravio mnogo toga prije svoje smrti.
6 And he called for Solomon, his son. And he instructed him to build a house to the Lord, the God of Israel.
Potom dozva sina Salomona i zapovjedi mu da sagradi Dom Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu.
7 And David said to Solomon: “My son, it was my will that I build a house to the name of the Lord my God.
Još David reče Salomonu: “Sine! Bio sam nakanio u srcu da sagradim Dom imenu Jahve, svoga Boga.
8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: ‘You have shed much blood, and you have battled in many wars. You are not able to build a house to my name, so great was the shedding of blood before me.
Ali mi je došla Jahvina riječ: 'Mnogo si krvi prolio i velike si ratove vodio; nećeš ti graditi Doma mome imenu jer si mnogo krvi prolio na zemlju preda mnom.
9 The son who shall be born to you will be a very quiet man. For I will cause him to have rest from all his enemies on every side. And for this reason, he shall be called Peaceful. And I will grant peace and tranquility to Israel during all his days.
Gle, rodit će ti se sin; on će biti miroljubac i dat ću mu mir od svih njegovih neprijatelja odasvud unaokolo; ime će mu biti Salomon. Mir i pokoj dat ću Izraelu za njegova vremena.
10 He shall build a house to my name. And he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel unto eternity.’
On će sagraditi Dom mome imenu, on će mi biti sin, a ja ću njemu biti otac i utvrdit ću njegovo kraljevsko prijestolje nad Izraelom zauvijek.'
11 Now then, my son, may the Lord be with you, and may you prosper and build a house to the Lord your God, just as he has spoken concerning you.
Sada, moj sine, neka bude Jahve s tobom da izvršiš i sagradiš Dom Jahve, svoga Boga, kao što je rekao za te.
12 Also, may the Lord give you prudence and understanding, so that you may be able to rule Israel and to guard the law of the Lord your God.
Samo neka ti Jahve poda razum i mudrost kad te postavi nad Izraelom zato da se držiš Zakona Jahve, svoga Boga!
13 For then you will be able to advance, if you keep the commandments and judgments that the Lord instructed Moses to teach to Israel. Be strengthened and act manfully. You should not fear, and you should not dread.
Bit ćeš sretan budeš li brižno vršio uredbe i zakone koje je Jahve preko Mojsija dao Izraelu. Budi junak i hrabar, ne boj se i ne plaši se!
14 Behold, in my poverty I have prepared the expenses for the house of the Lord: one hundred thousand talents of gold, and one million of talents of silver. Yet truly, there is no measuring the brass and the iron. For their magnitude is beyond numbering. And I have prepared the timber and the stones for the entire project.
Ja sam, evo, svojim trudom pripravio za Dom Jahvin sto tisuća zlatnih talenata i milijun srebrnih talenata, a tuča i željeza bez mjere, jer ga je tako mnogo. Pripravio sam i drva i kamenja, a i ti dodaj nešto k tomu.
15 Also, you have very many artisans: stoneworkers, and builders of walls, and craftsmen of wood, and those most prudent in doing the work of every art,
Imaš mnogo valjanih radnika, klesara, zidara, tesara i svakovrsnih vještaka u svakom umijeću;
16 with gold and silver, and with brass and iron, of which there is no number. Therefore, rise up and act. And the Lord will be with you.”
zlatu, srebru, tuču i željezu nema mjere; idi, dakle, i gradi, i neka Jahve bude s tobom!”
17 Also, David instructed all the leaders of Israel, so that they would assist his son Solomon,
Tada David zapovjedi svim izraelskim knezovima da pomažu njegovu sinu Salomonu:
18 saying: “You discern that the Lord your God is with you, and that he has given you rest on all sides, and that he has delivered all your enemies into your hands, and that the land has been subdued before the Lord and before his people.
“Nije li s vama Jahve, Bog vaš, koji vam je dao mir odasvud unaokolo jer je predao u moje ruke stanovnike ove zemlje i zemlja je pokorena pred Jahvom i pred njegovim narodom.
19 Therefore, offer your hearts and your souls, so that you seek the Lord your God. And rise up and build a sanctuary to the Lord God, so that the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the vessels consecrated to the Lord, may be brought into the house that is built to the name of the Lord.”
Sada, dakle, pregnite svojim srcem i svojom dušom da tražite Jahvu, svoga Boga; idite i gradite Svetište Bogu Jahvi, unesite Kovčeg saveza Jahvina i Božje sveto posuđe u Dom koji će se sagraditi Jahvinu imenu!”
