< 1 Kings 9 >
1 It happened, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do,
所罗门建造耶和华殿和王宫,并一切所愿意建造的都完毕了,
2 that the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
耶和华就二次向所罗门显现,如先前在基遍向他显现一样,
3 And the LORD said to him, "I have heard your prayer and your petition that you have made before me. I have done for you according to all your prayer. I have consecrated this house which you have built, to place my name there forever, and my eyes and my heart will be there perpetually.
对他说:“你向我所祷告祈求的,我都应允了。我已将你所建的这殿分别为圣,使我的名永远在其中;我的眼、我的心也必常在那里。
4 As for you, if you will walk before me, as David your father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances;
你若效法你父大卫,存诚实正直的心行在我面前,遵行我一切所吩咐你的,谨守我的律例典章,
5 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, according as I promised to David your father, saying, 'There shall not fail you a man on the throne of Israel.'
我就必坚固你的国位在以色列中,直到永远,正如我应许你父大卫说:‘你的子孙必不断人坐以色列的国位。’
6 But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
倘若你们和你们的子孙转去不跟从我,不守我指示你们的诫命律例,去事奉敬拜别神,
7 then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
我就必将以色列人从我赐给他们的地上剪除,并且我为己名所分别为圣的殿也必舍弃不顾,使以色列人在万民中作笑谈,被讥诮。
8 And this house, which is exalted, will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will whistle, and they will say, 'Why has the LORD done this to this land, and to this house?'
这殿虽然甚高,将来经过的人必惊讶、嗤笑,说:‘耶和华为何向这地和这殿如此行呢?’
9 And they shall answer, 'Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and worshiped them, and served them. Therefore the LORD has brought all this disaster on them.'"
人必回答说:‘是因此地的人离弃领他们列祖出埃及地之耶和华—他们的 神,去亲近别神,事奉敬拜他,所以耶和华使这一切灾祸临到他们。’”
10 It happened at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house
所罗门建造耶和华殿和王宫,这两所二十年才完毕了。
11 (now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
泰尔王希兰曾照所罗门所要的,资助他香柏木、松木,和金子;所罗门王就把加利利地的二十座城给了希兰。
12 Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they did not please him.
希兰从泰尔出来,察看所罗门给他的城邑,就不喜悦,
13 He said, "What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?" He called them the land of Cabul to this day.
说:“我兄啊,你给我的是什么城邑呢?”他就给这城邑之地起名叫迦步勒,直到今日。
14 Hiram sent to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold.
希兰给所罗门一百二十他连得金子。
15 This is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
所罗门王挑取服苦的人,是为建造耶和华的殿、自己的宫、米罗、耶路撒冷的城墙、夏琐、米吉多,并基 色。
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a portion to his daughter, Solomon's wife.
先前埃及王法老上来攻取基色,用火焚烧,杀了城内居住的迦南人,将城赐给他女儿所罗门的妻作妆奁。
17 Solomon built Gezer, and Lower Beth Horon,
所罗门建造基色、下伯·和 、
18 and Baalath, and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land,
巴拉,并国中旷野里的达莫,
19 and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
又建造所有的积货城,并屯车和马兵的城,与耶路撒冷、黎巴嫩,以及自己治理的全国中所愿建造的。
20 As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hethites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel;
至于国中所剩下不属以色列人的亚摩利人、赫人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人,
21 their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, of them Solomon conscripted for slave labor to this day.
就是以色列人不能灭尽的,所罗门挑取他们的后裔作服苦的奴仆,直到今日。
22 But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his commanders, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
惟有以色列人,所罗门不使他们作奴仆,乃是作他的战士、臣仆、统领、军长、车兵长、马兵长。
23 These were the chief officers who were over Solomon's work, five hundred fifty, who bore rule over the people who labored in the work.
所罗门有五百五十督工的,监管工人。
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the City of David to her house which Solomon had built for her: then he built Millo.
法老的女儿从大卫城搬到所罗门为她建造的宫里。那时,所罗门才建造米罗。
25 Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD three times a year, burning incense with them, on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.
所罗门每年三次在他为耶和华所筑的坛上献燔祭和平安祭,又在耶和华面前的坛上烧香。这样,他建造殿的工程完毕了。
26 King Solomon also had a fleet of ships at Ezion Geber, which is near Eilat on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
所罗门王在以东地红海边,靠近以禄的以旬·迦别制造船只。
27 Hiram sent in the navy his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
希兰差遣他的仆人,就是熟悉泛海的船家,与所罗门的仆人一同坐船航海。
28 They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
他们到了俄斐,从那里得了四百二十他连得金子,运到所罗门王那里。
