1 Kings 9
1 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of building the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, and everything that Solomon desired, which he was pleased to make,
Factum est autem cum perfecisset Salomon ædificium domus Domini, et ædificium regis, et omne quod optaverat et voluerat facere,
2 then appeared Yahweh unto Solomon, a second time, —as he appeared unto him, in Gibeon.
apparuit ei Dominus secundo sicut apparuerat ei in Gabaon.
3 And Yahweh said unto him—I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, wherewith thou hast made supplication before me, I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my Name there unto times age-abiding, —and mine eyes and my heart shall be there, continually:
Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Exaudivi orationem tuam et deprecationem tuam, quam deprecatus es coram me: sanctificavi domum hanc, quam ædificasti, ut ponerem nomen meum ibi in sempiternum, et erunt oculi mei et cor meum ibi cunctis diebus.
4 As for thee, therefore, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, with a whole heart and with uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, —and, my statutes and my regulations, wilt keep,
Tu quoque si ambulaveris coram me, sicut ambulavit pater tuus, in simplicitate cordis, et in æquitate: et feceris omnia, quæ præcepit tibi, et legitima mea et iudicia mea servaveris,
5 then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel, unto times age-abiding, —as I promised unto David thy father, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man, from off the throne of Israel.
ponam thronum regni tui super Israel in sempiternum, sicut locutus sum David patri tuo, dicens: Non auferetur vir de genere tuo de solio Israel.
6 If ye, turn back, ye or your sons, from following me, and keep not my commandments, my statutes, which I have set before you, —but depart and serve other gods, and bow yourselves down to them,
Si autem aversione aversi fueritis vos et filii vestri, non sequentes me, nec custodientes mandata mea, et ceremonias meas, quas proposui vobis, sed abieritis et colueritis deos alienos, et adoraveritis eos:
7 then will I cut off Israel, from the face of the soil, which I have given unto them, and, the house which I have hallowed for my Name, will I suffer to be carried away from before me, —and Israel shall become a byword and a mockery, among all the peoples;
auferam Israel de superficie terræ, quam dedi eis: et templum quod sanctificavi nomini meo, proiiciam a conspectu meo, eritque Israel in proverbium, et in fabulam cunctis populis.
8 and, this house which had been renowned, shall be desolate, every one that passeth by it, shall be astonished and shall whistle, —and men shall say—For what cause, hath Yahweh done, thus, unto this land, and unto this house?
Et domus hæc erit in exemplum: omnis, qui transierit per eam, stupebit, et sibilabit, et dicet: Quare fecit Dominus sic terræ huic, et domui huic?
9 And men will answer—Because they forsook Yahweh their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and bowed themselves down to them, and served them, for this cause, hath Yahweh brought in upon them all this ruin.
Et respondebunt: Quia derelinquerunt Dominum Deum suum, qui eduxit patres eorum de Terra Ægypti, et secuti sunt deos alienos, et adoraverunt eos, et coluerunt eos: idcirco induxit Dominus super eos omne malum hoc.
10 And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, —the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king;
Expletis autem annis viginti postquam ædificaverat Salomon duas domos, id est, domum Domini, et domum regis,
11 Hiram king of Tyre having supplied Solomon with timber of cedar, and with timber of fir, and with gold, according to all his desire, that, then, King Solomon gave unto Hiram twenty cities, in the land of Galilee.
(Hiram rege Tyri præbente Salomoni ligna cedrina et abiegna, et aurum iuxta omne quod opus habuerat) tunc dedit Salomon Hiram viginti oppida in Terra Galilææ.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to view the cities which, Solomon, had given him, —and they were not pleasing in his eyes.
Et egressus est Hiram de Tyro, ut videret oppida, quæ dederat ei Salomon, et non placuerunt ei,
13 So he said—What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them, Unfruitful Land, [as they are called] unto this day.
et ait: Hæcine sunt civitates, quas dedisti mihi, frater? Et appellavit eas terram Chabul, usque in diem hanc.
14 Now Hiram had sent to the king, —a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
Misit quoque Hiram ad regem Salomonem centum viginti talenta auri.
15 Now, the following, is an account of the tax which King Solomon raised, for building the house of Yahweh and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, —and Hazor and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Hæc est summa expensarum, quam obtulit rex Salomon ad ædificandam domum Domini et domum suam, et Mello, et murum Ierusalem, et Heser, et Mageddo et Gazer.
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt, had gone up and captured Gezer, and burned it with fire, the Canaanites also who were dwelling in the city, had he slain, —and had given it as a dowry, to his daughter, wife of Solomon.
Pharao rex Ægypti ascendit, et cepit Gazar, succenditque eam igni: et Chananæum, qui habitabat in civitate, interfecit, et dedit eam in dotem filiæ suæ uxori Salomonis.
17 So then Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon, the nether,
Ædificavit ergo Salomon Gazer, et Bethoron inferiorem,
18 and Baalath and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land;
et Balaath, et Palmiram in terra solitudinis.
19 also all the store cities, which Solomon had, and the cities for chariots, and the cities for horsemen, —and the desire of Solomon that he was pleased to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land that he ruled over.
Et omnes vicos, qui ad se pertinebant, et erant absque muro, munivit, et civitates curruum et civitates equitum, et quodcumque ei placuit ut ædificaret in Ierusalem, et in Libano, et in omni terra potestatis suæ.
20 All the people that were left, of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were, not of the sons of Israel;
Universum populum, qui remanserat de Amorrhæis, et Hethæis, et Pherezæis, et Hevæis, et Iebusæis, qui non sunt de filiis Israel:
21 their sons, who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel were not able to devote to destruction, Solomon levied them for a toiling labour-band [which remaineth] unto this day.
horum filios, qui remanserant in terra, quos scilicet non potuerant filii Israel exterminare: fecit Salomon tributarios, usque in diem hanc.
22 But, of the sons of Israel, Solomon devoted none to bond-service, —but, they, were men of war, and his servants, and his generals, and his heroes, and captains of his chariots, and his horsemen.
De filiis autem Israel non constituit Salomon servire quemquam, sed erant viri bellatores, et ministri eius, et principes, et duces, et præfecti curruum et equorum.
23 These, were the chiefs of the officers, who were over the work, for Solomon, five hundred and fifty, —who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
Erant autem principes super omnia opera Salomonis præpositi quingenti quinquaginta, qui habebant subiectum populum, et statutis operibus imperabant.
24 Scarcely had Pharaoh’s daughter come up out of the city of David, into her own house, which he had built for her, when he built Millo.
Filia autem Pharaonis ascendit de civitate David in domum suam, quam ædificaverat ei Salomon: tunc ædificavit Mello.
25 And Solomon used to offer, three times a year, ascending-sacrifices and peace-offerings, upon the altar which he had built unto Yahweh, and to offer incense at the altar which was before Yahweh, —thus Solomon gave completeness unto the house.
Offerebat quoque Salomon tribus vicibus per annos singulos holocausta, et pacificas victimas super altare, quod ædificaverat Domino, et adolebat thymiama coram Domino: perfectumque est templum.
26 A fleet also, did King Solomon build in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Classem quoque fecit rex Salomon in Asiongaber, quæ est iuxta Ailath in littore Maris Rubri, in Terra Idumææ.
27 And Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, seamen, having knowledge of the sea, —with the servants of Solomon;
Misitque Hiram in classe illa servos suos viros nauticos et gnaros maris, cum servis Salomonis.
28 and they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence, gold, four hundred and twenty talents, —and brought it to King Solomon.
Qui cum venissent in Ophir, sumptum inde aurum quadringentorum viginti talentorum, detulerunt ad regem Salomonem.
