2 Chronicles 8
1 It had taken twenty years for Solomon to build the Temple of the Lord and his own palace.
expletis autem viginti annis postquam aedificavit Salomon domum Domini et domum suam
2 Solomon rebuilt the towns Hiram had given him, and sent Israelites to live there.
civitates quas dederat Hiram Salomoni aedificavit et habitare ibi fecit filios Israhel
3 Then Solomon attacked Hamath-zobah and captured it.
abiit quoque in Emath Suba et obtinuit eam
4 He built Tadmor in the wilderness and also built all the storehouse towns in Hamath.
et aedificavit Palmyram in deserto et alias civitates munitissimas aedificavit in Emath
5 He rebuilt Upper and Lower Beth-horon, fortified cities with walls and barred gates,
extruxitque Bethoron superiorem et Bethoron inferiorem civitates muratas habentes portas et vectes et seras
6 and also Baalath. He built all the storehouse towns that belonged to him, and all the towns where he kept his chariots and horses. He built everything he wanted to in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout his entire kingdom.
Baalath etiam et omnes urbes firmissimas quae fuerunt Salomonis cunctasque urbes quadrigarum et urbes equitum omnia quae voluit Salomon atque disposuit aedificavit in Hierusalem et in Libano et in universa terra potestatis suae
7 There were some people who remained in the land: the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—people who were not Israelites.
omnem populum qui derelictus fuerat de Hettheis et Amorreis et Ferezeis et Eveis et Iebuseis qui non erant de stirpe Israhel
8 They were the remaining descendants of the peoples that the Israelites had not destroyed. Solomon made them work as forced laborers, as they are to this day.
de filiis eorum et de posteris quos non interfecerant filii Israhel subiugavit Salomon in tributarios usque in diem hanc
9 But Solomon did not make any of the Israelites work as slaves. Instead, they were his military men, his officers, and commanders of his chariots and horsemen.
porro de filiis Israhel non posuit ut servirent operibus regis ipsi enim erant viri bellatores et duces primi et principes quadrigarum et equitum eius
10 They were also King Solomon's chief officers, 250 men who supervised the people.
omnes autem principes exercitus regis Salomonis fuerunt ducenti quinquaginta qui erudiebant populum
11 Solomon moved Pharaoh's daughter from the City of David to the palace he had built for her. For he said, “My wife cannot live in the palace of David king of Israel, because wherever the Ark of the Lord has gone are holy places.”
filiam vero Pharaonis transtulit de civitate David in domum quam aedificaverat ei dixit enim non habitabit uxor mea in domo David regis Israhel eo quod sanctificata sit quia ingressa est eam arca Domini
12 Then Solomon presented burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord he had built in front of the Temple's porch.
tunc obtulit Salomon holocausta Domino super altare Domini quod extruxerat ante porticum
13 He followed the requirement for daily offerings as Moses had ordered for Sabbaths, new moons, and the three annual festivals—the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters.
ut per singulos dies offerretur in eo iuxta praeceptum Mosi in sabbatis et in kalendis et in festis diebus ter per annum id est in sollemnitate azymorum et in sollemnitate ebdomadarum et in sollemnitate tabernaculorum
14 Following the instructions of his father David, he assigned the divisions of the priests for their service, and the Levites in their responsibilities to offer praise, and to help the priests in their daily duties. He also assigned gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate as David, the man of God, had instructed.
et constituit iuxta dispositionem David patris sui officia sacerdotum in ministeriis suis et Levitas in ordine suo ut laudarent et ministrarent coram sacerdotibus iuxta ritum uniuscuiusque diei et ianitores in divisionibus suis per portam et portam sic enim praeceperat David homo Dei
15 They followed David's instructions exactly regarding the priests, the Levites, and anything to do with the treasuries.
nec praetergressi sunt de mandatis regis tam sacerdotes quam Levitae ex omnibus quae praeceperat et in custodiis thesaurorum
16 This is how all Solomon's work was carried out, from the day the foundation was laid for the Lord's Temple until it was finished. So the Lord's Temple was completed.
omnes inpensas praeparatas habuit Salomon ex eo die quo fundavit domum Domini usque in diem quo perfecit eam
17 After this Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth on the coast of the land of Edom.
tunc abiit Salomon in Hesiongaber et in Ahilath ad oram maris Rubri quae est in terra Edom
18 Hiram sent him ships under the command of his own officers, along with experienced sailors. They went with Solomon's men to Ophir where they loaded 450 talents of gold, which they then brought back to King Solomon.
misit autem ei Hiram per manum servorum suorum naves et nautas gnaros maris et abierunt cum servis Salomonis in Ophir tuleruntque inde quadringenta quinquaginta talenta auri et adtulerunt ad regem Salomonem
