2 Chronicles 8
1 Then, twenty years having passed since Solomon built the house of the Lord and his own house,
A kad je prošlo dvadeset godina, za koliko je vremena Salomon podigao Jahvin Dom i svoj dvor,
2 he built the cities that Hiram had given to Solomon, and he caused the sons of Israel to live there.
posagradio je Salomon gradove, koje je dao Salomonu Hiram, i naselio ondje Izraelove sinove.
3 Also, he went to Hamath Zobah, and he obtained it.
Potom otiđe Salomon na Sopski Hamat i osvoji ga.
4 And he built Palmira in the desert, and he built very fortified cities in Hamath.
Sagradi Tadmor u pustinji i svakojaka mjesta za skladišta u Hamatu.
5 And he built upper Beth-horon and lower Beth-horon, as walled cities, having gates and bars and locks,
Sagradi i Gornji Bet Horon i Donji Bet Horon, tvrde gradove sa zidovima, vratima i prijevornicama;
6 as well as Baalath, and all the very strong cities which were of Solomon, and all the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen. Everything whatsoever that Solomon willed and decided, he built in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout the entire land of his authority.
i Baalat, i sve gradove u kojima je imao skladišta, sve gradove za bojna kola i gradove za konjanike i što je god Salomon zaželio da gradi u Jeruzalemu i na Libanonu i po svoj zemlji svojega kraljevstva.
7 All the people who had been left from the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, those who were not from the stock of Israel,
Svim preostalim Hetitima, Amorejcima, Perižanima, Hivijcima i Jebusejcima, koji nisu bili Izraelci,
8 those of their sons and their posterity whom the sons of Israel had not put to death, Solomon subjugated as tributaries, even to this day.
sinovima njihovim koji ostadoše iza njih u zemlji i koje Izraelci nisu zatrli - Salomon nametnu tlaku do današnjega dana.
9 But he did not appoint anyone from the sons of Israel to serve in the works of the king. For they were men of war, and first rulers, and commanders of his chariots and horsemen.
Sinove Izraelove nije Salomon pretvarao u robove za posao, nego su bili vojnici, zapovjednici njegovih štitonoša i zapovjednici bojnih kola i konjice.
10 Now all the leaders of the army of king Solomon were two hundred fifty, who were instructing the people.
Bili su poglavari nad upravnicima, kojih je kralj Salomon imao dvjesta i pedeset, i upravljali su narodom.
11 Truly, he transferred the daughter of Pharaoh, from the City of David, to the house that he had built for her. For the king said: “My wife shall not live in the house of David, king of Israel, for it has been sanctified. For the ark of the Lord has entered into it.”
Salomon preseli i faraonovu kćer iz Davidova grada u kuću koju joj bijaše sagradio, jer je mislio: “Neće moja žena živjeti u dvoru izraelskoga kralja Davida, jer je svet otkako je u nj došao Kovčeg Jahvin.”
12 Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord on the altar of the Lord, which he had constructed before the portico,
Tada Salomon poče prinositi paljenice Jahvi na Jahvinu žrtveniku što ga bijaše sagradio pred trijemom,
13 so that every day there would be an offering on it, in accord with the precept of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and three times a year on the feast days, that is, on the solemnity of unleavened bread, and on the solemnity of weeks, and on the solemnity of tabernacles.
i to koliko je trebalo iz dana u dan da prinese po Mojsijevoj zapovijedi, u subote, i na mlađake, i na blagdane tri puta u godini, na Blagdan beskvasnih kruhova, i na Blagdan sedmica, i na Blagdan sjenica.
14 And he appointed, in accord with the plan of his father David, the offices of the priests in their ministries; and those of the Levites, in their orders, so that they might praise and minister before the priests according to the ritual of each day; and the porters, in their divisions, from gate to gate. For so had David, the man of God, instructed.
Postavio je, po uredbi oca Davida, svećeničke redove po njihovoj službi i levitske po njihovim dužnostima da pjevaju hvale i da služe pred svećenicima, koliko treba iz dana u dan, i vratare po njihovim redovima na svakim vratima, jer je takva bila zapovijed Božjega čovjeka Davida.
15 Neither the priests, nor the Levites, transgressed against the commands of the king, in all that he had instructed, and in the keeping of the treasuries.
Nisu odstupili od kraljeve zapovijedi za svećenike i levite ni u čemu, ni za riznice.
16 Solomon had all the expenses prepared, from the day on which he founded the house of the Lord, even until the day when he perfected it.
Tako se svršio sav Salomonov posao od dana kad je bio zasnovan Dom Jahvin pa dokle ga god nije dovršio. Tako bijaše dovršen Dom Jahvin.
17 Then Solomon went away to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, on the coast of the Red Sea, which is in the land of Edom.
Tada je Salomon otišao u Esjon-Geber i u Elat na morskoj obali u zemlji edomskoj.
18 And Hiram sent to him ships, by the hands of his servants, sailors and skillful navigators of the sea, and they went away with the servants of Solomon to Ophir. And they took from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and they brought it to king Solomon.
A Hiram mu je poslao po slugama lađe i mornare vične moru te su otišli sa Salomonovim slugama u Ofir; uzeše odande četiri stotine i pedeset talenata zlata i donesoše ih kralju Salomonu.
