2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.
И Соломун син Давидов утврди се у царству свом, и Господ Бог његов беше с њим, и узвиси га веома.
2 And Solomon spake unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ [houses].
И Соломун рече свему Израиљу, хиљадницима и стотиницима и судијама и свим кнезовима свега Израиља, главарима домова отачких,
3 So Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.
Те отидоше, Соломун и сав збор с њим, на висину која беше у Гаваону; јер онде беше шатор од састанка Божјег, који начини Мојсије, слуга Господњи, у пустињи.
4 But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjath-jearim to [the place] that David had prepared for it: for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
А ковчег Божји беше пренео Давид из Киријат-Јарима на место које му спреми Давид; јер му разапе шатор у Јерусалиму.
5 Moreover the brasen altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon and the congregation sought unto it.
И олтар бронзани који начини Веселеило, син Урија сина Оровог, беше онде пред шатором Господњим. И потражи Га Соломун и сав збор.
6 And Solomon went up thither to the brasen altar before the LORD, which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings upon it.
И принесе Соломун онде пред Господом на олтару бронзаном, који беше пред шатором од састанка, принесе на њему хиљаду жртава паљеница.
7 In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee.
Ону ноћ јави се Бог Соломуну и рече му: Ишти шта хоћеш да ти дам.
8 And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great kindness unto David my father, and hast made me king in his stead.
А Соломун рече Богу: Ти си учинио велику милост Давиду оцу мом и поставио си мене царем на његово место.
9 Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
Нека дакле, Господе Боже, буде тврда реч Твоја, коју си рекао Давиду оцу мом, јер си ме поставио царем над народом ког има много као праха на земљи.
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?
Зато дај ми мудрост и знање да полазим пред народом овим и долазим, јер ко може судити народу Твом тако великом?
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee; neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:
Тада рече Бог Соломуну: Што ти је то у срцу, а не иштеш богатство, благо ни славу, ни душе ненавидника својих, нити иштеш дуг живот, него иштеш мудрост и знање да можеш судити народу мом, над којим те поставих царем,
12 wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.
Мудрост и знање даје ти се; а даћу ти и богатства и славе, какве нису имали цареви пре тебе нити ће после тебе имати.
13 So Solomon came [from his journey] to the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
И врати се Соломун с висине која беше у Гаваону испред шатора од састанка у Јерусалим, и цароваше над Израиљем.
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, which he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
И накупи Соломун кола и коњаника, и имаше хиљаду и четири стотине кола и дванаест хиљада коњаника, које намести по градовима где му беху кола и код себе у Јерусалиму.
15 And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
И учини цар те беше у Јерусалиму сребра и злата као камена, а кедрових дрва као дивљих смокава које расту по пољу, тако много.
16 And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; the king’s merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.
И довођаху Соломуну коње из Мисира и свакојаку робу, јер трговци цареви узимаху свакојаки трг за цену.
17 And they fetched up, and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and an horse for an hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.
И одлажаху, те догоњаху из Мисира кола по шест стотина сикала сребра, а коње по сто педесет; и тако сви цареви хетејски и цареви сирски преко њих добиваху.
