< 2 Chronicles 8 >

1 And it comes to pass at the end of twenty years that Solomon has built the house of YHWH and his own house.
所罗门建造耶和华殿和王宫,二十年才完毕了。
2 As for the cities that Huram has given to Solomon, Solomon has built them, and he causes the sons of Israel to dwell there.
以后所罗门重新修筑希兰送给他的那些城邑,使以色列人住在那里。
3 And Solomon goes to Hamath-Zobah, and lays hold on it;
所罗门往哈马琐巴去,攻取了那地方。
4 and he builds Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the cities of store that he has built in Hamath.
所罗门建造旷野里的达莫,又建造哈马所有的积货城,
5 And he builds Beth-Horon the upper, and Beth-Horon the lower—cities of defense, with walls, double gates, and bar—
又建造上伯·和 、下伯·和 作为保障,都有墙,有门,有闩;
6 and Ba‘alath, and all the cities of store that Solomon had, and all the cities of the chariot, and the cities of the horsemen, and all the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
又建造巴拉和所有的积货城,并屯车辆马兵的城,与耶路撒冷、黎巴嫩,以及自己治理的全国中所愿意建造的。
7 All the people who are left of the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who are not of Israel—
至于国中所剩下不属以色列人的赫人、亚摩利人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人,
8 of their sons who have been left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel did not consume—Solomon lifts up a tribute to this day.
就是以色列人未曾灭绝的,所罗门挑取他们的后裔作服苦的奴仆,直到今日。
9 And Solomon has made none of the sons of Israel servants for his work, but they [are] men of war, and heads of his captains, and heads of his charioteers, and of his horsemen;
惟有以色列人,所罗门不使他们当奴仆做工,乃是作他的战士、军长的统领、车兵长、马兵长。
10 and these [are] heads of the officers whom King Solomon has, two hundred and fifty who are rulers among the people.
所罗门王有二百五十督工的,监管工人。
11 And Solomon has brought up the daughter of Pharaoh from the City of David to the house that he built for her, for he said, “My wife does not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for they are holy to whom the Ark of YHWH has come.”
所罗门将法老的女儿带出大卫城,上到为她建造的宫里;因所罗门说:“耶和华约柜所到之处都为圣地,所以我的妻不可住在以色列王大卫的宫里。”
12 Then Solomon has caused burnt-offerings to ascend to YHWH on the altar of YHWH that he built before the porch,
所罗门在耶和华的坛上,就是在廊子前他所筑的坛上,与耶和华献燔祭;
13 even by the matter of a day in its day, to cause to ascend according to the command of Moses, on Sabbaths, and on new moons, and on appointed times, three times in a year—in the Celebration of Unleavened Things, and in the Celebration of Weeks, and in the Celebration of Shelters.
又遵着摩西的吩咐在安息日、月朔,并一年三节,就是除酵节、七七节、住棚节,献每日所当献的祭。
14 And he establishes, according to the ordinance of his father David, the divisions of the priests over their service, and of the Levites over their charges, to praise and to minister before the priests, according to the matter of a day in its day, and the gatekeepers in their divisions at every gate, for so [is] the command of David the man of God.
所罗门照着他父大卫所定的例,派定祭司的班次,使他们各供己事,又使利未人各尽其职,赞美耶和华,在祭司面前做每日所当做的;又派守门的按着班次看守各门,因为神人大卫是这样吩咐的。
15 And they have not turned aside [from] the command of the king concerning the priests and the Levites, in reference to any matter, and to the treasures.
王所吩咐众祭司和利未人的,无论是管府库或办别的事,他们都不违背。
16 And all the work of Solomon is prepared until the day of the foundation of the house of YHWH, and until its completion; the house of YHWH is perfect.
所罗门建造耶和华的殿,从立根基直到成功的日子,工料俱备。这样,耶和华的殿全然完毕。
17 Then Solomon has gone to Ezion-Geber, and to Elath, on the border of the sea, in the land of Edom;
那时,所罗门往以东地靠海的以旬·迦别和以禄去。
18 and Huram sends to him, by the hand of his servants, ships and servants knowing the sea, and they go with servants of Solomon to Ophir, and take four hundred and fifty talents of gold from there, and bring it to King Solomon.
希兰差遣他的臣仆,将船只和熟悉泛海的仆人送到所罗门那里。他们同着所罗门的仆人到了俄斐,得了四百五十他连得金子,运到所罗门王那里。
