2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon son of David strengthens himself over his kingdom, and his God YHWH [is] with him, and makes him exceedingly great.
Salomon, sin Davidov, bio se učvrstio na prijestolju. Jahve, Bog njegov, bijaše s njim i uzvisi ga veoma.
2 And Solomon says to all Israel, to heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, and to the ones judging, and to every honorable one of all Israel, heads of the fathers,
Salomon se tada obrati svem Izraelu, tisućnicima, satnicima, sucima, svim knezovima izraelskim, glavama obitelji,
3 and they go—Solomon, and all the assembly with him—to the high place that [is] in Gibeon, for God’s Tent of Meeting has been there, that Moses, servant of YHWH, made in the wilderness,
te se on i s njim sav Zbor popeše na uzvišicu koja bješe u Gibeonu, jer je ondje bio Šator sastanka što ga u pustinji podiže Mojsije, sluga Božji.
4 but David had the Ark of God brought up from Kirjath-Jearim to the [place] David had prepared for it, for he stretched out a tent for it in Jerusalem;
David bijaše prenio Kovčeg Božji iz Kirjat Jearima do mjesta koje je sam pripravio za nj; jer je bio podigao Šator u Jeruzalemu.
5 and the altar of bronze that Bezaleel son of Uri, son of Hur made, he put before the Dwelling Place of YHWH; and Solomon and the assembly seek Him [there].
Tučani žrtvenik što ga napravi Besalel, sin Hurova sina Urija, bijaše ondje pred Prebivalištem Jahvinim, kamo dođoše Salomon i zbor da mu se obrate.
6 And Solomon goes up there, on the altar of bronze, before YHWH, that [is] at the Tent of Meeting, and causes one thousand burnt-offerings to ascend on it.
Ondje se Salomon pred Jahvom pope na tučani žrtvenik, koji bješe tik do Šatora sastanka, i prinese na njemu tisuću paljenica.
7 In that night God has appeared to Solomon and says to him, “Ask—what do I give to you?”
Iste se noći Bog ukaza Salomonu i reče mu: “Traži što da ti dadem.”
8 And Solomon says to God, “You have done great kindness with my father David, and have caused me to reign in his stead.
Salomon odgovori: “Veoma si naklon bio mome ocu Davidu i zakraljio si mene na njegovo mjesto.
9 Now, O YHWH God, Your word with my father David is steadfast, for You have caused me to reign over a people [as] numerous as the dust of the earth;
Bože Jahve, neka se ispuni sada obećanje što si ga dao mome ocu Davidu, jer si me zakraljio nad narodom kojega ima mnogo kao zemaljske prašine.
10 now, give wisdom and knowledge to me, and I go out before this people, and I come in, for who judges this—Your great people?”
Daj mi sada mudrost i znanje da uzmognem upravljati ovim narodom, jer tko će upravljati tolikim narodom kao što je ovaj tvoj!”
11 And God says to Solomon, “Because that this has been with your heart, and you have not asked for riches, wealth, and honor, and the life of those hating you, and also have not asked for many days, and ask for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you judge My people over which I have caused you to reign—
Bog reče Salomonu: “Budući da ti je to u srcu, a nisi iskao ni bogatstva, ni blaga, ni slave, ni smrti neprijatelja i jer nisi tražio duga života nego mudrosti i znanja kako bi upravljao mojim narodom nad kojim te zakraljih,
12 the wisdom and the knowledge is given to you, and riches and wealth and honor I [also] give to you, that there has not been so to the kings who [are] before you, and after you it is not so.”
dajem ti mudrost i znanje. Ali ti dajem i bogatstva, blaga i slave kakve nije imao nijedan kralj što bješe prije tebe i kakve neće imati ni oni koji dođu poslije tebe.”
13 And Solomon comes in to Jerusalem [from] the high place that [is] in Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, and reigns over Israel,
Salomon s uzvišice u Gibeonu ode u Jeruzalem, podalje od Šatora sastanka, i kraljevaše nad Izraelom.
14 and Solomon gathers chariots and horsemen, and he has one thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he places them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem.
Sakupi bojnih kola i konjanika: imao je tisuću četiri stotine kola i dvanaest tisuća konjanika i razmjesti ih po gradovima gdje mu bijahu kola i kod sebe u Jeruzalemu.
15 And the king makes the silver and the gold in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he made as sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.
Salomon učini da srebra i zlata bude u Jeruzalemu izobila kao kamenja, a cedrova mnogo kao dudova u Šefeli.
16 And the source of the horses that [are] for Solomon [is] from Egypt and from Keva; merchants of the king take [them] from Keva at a price,
Konji Salomonovi bili su uvezeni iz Musrija i Koe; kraljevski dvorani kupovahu ih u Koi za srebro.
17 and they come up, and bring out a chariot from Egypt for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty, and so for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram—they bring [them] out by their hand.
Dovozila su se i prodavala jedna bojna kola iz Egipta po šest stotina srebrnih šekela, a konji po sto i pedeset; to bješe isto tako za sve hetitske i aramejske kraljeve koji su ih uvozili preko njih.
