2 Chronicles 8
1 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house,
Och efter tjugu år, i hvilkom Salomo Herrans hus, och sitt hus byggde;
2 that the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
Byggde han ock de städer, som Hyram gaf Salomo, och lät Israels barn bo deruti.
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, and prevailed against it.
Och Salomo drog till HamathZoba, och gjorde det fast;
4 And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store-cities, which he built in Hamath.
Och byggde Thadmor i öknene, och alla kornstäder, som han byggde i Hamath.
5 Also he built Beth-horon the upper, and Beth-horon the nether, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
Han byggde ock öfra och nedra BethHoron, hvilka faste städer voro med murar, portar och bommar;
6 and Baalath, and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
Desslikes Baalath, och alla kornstäder som Salomo hade, och alla vagnsstäder, och resenärars städer, och allt det Salomo lyste att bygga, både i Jerusalem och på Libanon, och i allo hans väldes lande.
7 As for all the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel;
Allt det folk, som qvart blifvet var, af de Hetheer, Amoreer, Phereseer, Heveer och Jebuseer, som icke voro af Israels barn;
8 of their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, of them did Solomon raise a levy of bondservants, unto this day.
Och deras barn, som de efter sig left hade i landena, hvilka Israels barn icke förlagt hade, gjorde Salomo skattpligtiga, allt intill denna dag.
9 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
Men af Israels barn gjorde Salomo inga trälar, till sitt arbete; utan de voro krigsmän, och öfver hans riddare, och öfver hans vagnar och resenärar.
10 And these were the chief officers of king Solomon, even two hundred and fifty, that bore rule over the people.
Och de öfverste Konung Salomos befallningsmän voro tuhundrad och femtio, som öfver folket rådde.
11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her; for he said: 'No wife of mine shall dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy, whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come.'
Och Pharaos dotter lät Salomo hemta af Davids stad, uti det hus, som han för henne byggt hade; ty han sade: Min hustru skall icke bo uti Davids Israels Konungs huse; förty det är helgadt, efter Herrans ark der inkommen är.
12 Then Solomon offered burnt-offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch,
Sedan offrade Salomo Herranom bränneoffer på Herrans altare, som han byggt hade för förhuset;
13 even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the appointed seasons, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.
Till att offra hvart på sin dag, efter Mose bud; på Sabbather, nymånader, och på bestämda tider, tre resor om året; nämliga på osyrade bröds högtidene, på veckohögtidene, och på löfhyddohögtidene.
14 And he appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise, and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required; the doorkeepers also by their courses at every gate; for so had David the man of God commanded.
Och han satte Presterna i deras skifte till deras ämbete, såsom David hans fader det lagat hade; och Leviterna på deras vakt till att lofva och tjena för Presterna, hvar sin dag; och de dörravaktare i deras skifte, hvar vid sina dörr; ty så hade David den Guds mannen befallt.
15 And they departed not from the commandment of the king unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.
Och man vek icke ifrå Konungens bud, om Presterna och Leviterna, i någrahanda ärende och håfvor.
16 So all the work of Solomon was set in order from the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected.
Alltså vardt redo hvad Salomo för händer haft hade, ifrå den dag, då Herrans hus grundadt vardt, intilldess han fullkomnade det; så att Herrans hus allt redo vardt.
17 Then went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth, on the sea-shore in the land of Edom.
Så drog Salomo till EzionGeber, och till Eloth, vid hafsstrandena i Edoms land.
18 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and fetched from thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.
Och Hyram sände honom skepp med sina tjenare, som sjöfarne voro; och de foro med Salomos tjenare till Ophir, och hemtade dädan fyrahundrad och femtio centener guld, och förde till Konung Salomo.
