1 Kings 9
1 After Solomon had finished the Lord's Temple and the royal palace, having accomplished everything he'd wanted to do,
Kad je Salomon dovršio gradnju Doma Jahvina, kraljevskog dvora i svega što je namislio graditi,
2 the Lord appeared to him a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
javi se Jahve i drugi put Salomonu, kao što mu se bio javio u Gibeonu.
3 The Lord told him, “I have heard your prayer and your request to me. I have dedicated this Temple you have built by placing my name on it forever; I will always watch over it and take care of it.
Jahve mu reče: “Uslišio sam molitvu i prošnju koju si mi uputio. Posvetio sam ovaj Dom, koji si sagradio da u njemu prebiva Ime moje dovijeka; moje će oči i srce biti ovdje svagda.
4 As for you, if you follow my ways as your father David did, doing everything I've told you to do, and if you keep my laws and regulations,
A ti, ako budeš hodio preda mnom kako je hodio tvoj otac David, u nevinosti srca i pravednosti, postupao u svemu kako sam ti zapovjedio i ako budeš držao moje zakone i moje naredbe,
5 then I will make your throne secure forever. I made this agreement with your father David, telling him, ‘You will always have a descendant to rule over Israel.’
ja ću učvrstiti zauvijek tvoje kraljevsko prijestolje nad Izraelom, kako sam obećao tvome ocu Davidu kad sam rekao: 'Nikada ti neće nestati nasljednika na prijestolju Izraelovu.'
6 But if you or your descendants turn away and do not keep the laws and the commandments I have given you, and if you go and serve and worship other gods,
Ali ako me ostavite, vi i vaši sinovi, ako ne budete držali mojih zapovijedi i zakona koje sam vam dao, ako se okrenete bogovima i budete im služili i klanjali im se,
7 then I will cut Israel off from the land I have given them. I will banish from my presence this Temple I have dedicated to my honor, and I will make it an object lesson of ridicule among the nations.
tada ću istrijebiti Izraela iz zemlje koju sam mu dao; ovaj ću Dom, koji sam posvetio svome Imenu, odbaciti od sebe, i Izrael će biti poruga i podsmijeh svim narodima.
8 This Temple will become a pile of rubble. All who pass by it will be appalled and will hiss, saying, ‘Why has the Lord acted in such a way to this land and this Temple?’
Ovaj je Dom uzvišen, ali svi koji budu uza nj prolazili bit će zaprepašteni; zviždat će i govoriti: 'Zašto je Jahve tako učinio s ovom zemljom i s ovim Domom?'
9 The answer will come, ‘Because they abandoned the Lord their God, who brought their forefathers out of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping them and serving them. That's why the Lord has brought all this trouble upon them.’”
A reći će im se: 'Jer su ostavili Jahvu, Boga svoga, koji je izveo oce njihove iz Egipta, a priklonili se drugim bogovima, častili ih i služili im, zato je Jahve pustio na njih sva ova zla.'”
10 It took twenty years for Solomon to construct the two buildings—the Temple of the Lord and his own palace. After this,
Poslije dvadeset godina, za kojih je Salomon sagradio obje zgrade, Dom Jahvin i kraljevski dvor,
11 King Solomon gave twenty towns in Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, because Hiram had provided him with all the cedar and juniper and gold he wanted.
a Hiram, kralj Tira, dobavljao mu drvo cedrovo i čempresovo i zlata koliko je god želio, dade tada kralj Salomon Hiramu dvadeset gradova u zemlji galilejskoj.
12 But when Hiram went from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, he was not happy with them.
Hiram izađe iz Tira da vidi gradove koje mu je Salomon darovao, ali mu se nisu svidjeli.
13 “What are these towns you have given me, my brother?” asked Hiram. He called them the land of Cabul, the name they are known by to this day.
I reče: “Kakvi su to gradovi što si mi ih dao, brate?” I od tada ih zovu “zemlja Kabul” do današnjega dana.
14 Even so, Hiram sent the king 120 talents of gold in payment.
A Hiram bijaše poslao kralju stotinu i dvadeset zlatnih talenata.
15 Here is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon imposed to build the Lord's Temple, his own palace, the terraces, and the wall of Jerusalem, as well as Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.
Ovako je bilo s rabotom koju je kralj Salomon digao da sagradi Dom Jahvin, svoj dvor, Milo i zidove Jeruzalema, Hasor, Megido i Gezer.
16 Pharaoh, king of Egypt, had attacked and captured Gezer. He had set it on fire, killed the Canaanites living in the town. He had then given it as a wedding dowry to his daughter, Solomon's wife.
Faraon, kralj Egipta, krenu u vojni pohod, osvoji Gezer, popali i poubija Kanaance koji su ondje živjeli, zatim dade grad u miraz svojoj kćeri, ženi Salomonovoj,
17 Solomon rebuilt Gezer and lower Beth-horon,
a Salomon obnovi Gezer, Bet Horon Donji,
18 Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land of Judah,
Baalat, Tamar u pustinji u zemlji,
19 and all of Solomon's towns for storage, and the towns for his chariots and for his horsemen, plus whatever Solomon wanted to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and throughout his entire kingdom.
sve gradove-skladišta koje je Salomon imao, gradove za bojna kola i gradove za konjicu, i sve što je Salomon želio sagraditi u Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu i u svim zemljama koje su mu bile podložne.
20 The descendants of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites (people who were not Israelites)
Svim preostalim Amorejcima, Hetitima, Perižanima, Hivijcima i Jebusejcima, koji nisu bili Izraelci,
21 who remained in the land—those whom the Israelites were unable to destroy completely—were conscripted by Solomon to work as forced laborers, as they continue to do to this day.
sinovima njihovim koji ostadoše iza njih u zemlji i koje Izraelci nisu zatrli, Salomon nametnu tešku tlaku do današnjega dana.
22 But Solomon did not enslave any of the Israelites. They were his soldiers, officials, commanders, captains, chariot commanders, and horsemen.
Sinove Izraelove nije Salomon pretvarao u robove, nego su mu oni bili vojnici, dvorani, vojskovođe, tridesetnici, zapovjednici njegovih bojnih kola i konjice.
23 They were also the chief officers in charge of Solomon's programs: 550 in command of the people who carried out the work.
A evo nadzornika koji su upravljali Salomonovim radovima: njih pet stotina i pedeset koji su zapovijedali puku zaposlenu na radovima.
24 Once Pharaoh's daughter had moved from the City of David to the palace that Solomon had built for her, he built the city terraces.
Čim je faraonova kći ušla iz Davidova grada u kuću koju joj Salomon bijaše sagradio, tada on podiže Milo.
25 Three times each year Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and friendship offerings on the altar he had built for the Lord, burning incense before the Lord with them, and so fulfilled what was required at the Temple.
Salomon je tri puta u godini prinosio paljenice i pričesnice na žrtveniku koji je podigao Jahvi i palio je kad pred Jahvom. Tako je dovršio Hram.
26 King Solomon built a fleet of ships at Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Kralj Salomon je sagradio brodovlje u Esjon-Geberu, koji je kralj Elata, na obali Crvenoga mora, u zemlji edomskoj.
27 Hiram sent his sailors who knew the sea to serve in the fleet with Solomon's men.
Hiram je poslao na tim lađama svoje sluge, mornare koji su poznavali more, sa slugama Salomonovim.
28 They sailed to Ophir and brought back 420 talents of gold from there and delivered it to Solomon.
Oni otploviše u Ofir, uzeše odande četiri stotine i dvadeset talenata zlata i donesoše ih kralju Salomonu.
