And David said: 'Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be builded for the LORD must be exceeding magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries; I will therefore make preparation for him.' So David prepared abundantly before his death.
6 And he summoned Solomon son his and he commanded him to build a house for Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
Then He called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for the LORD, the God of Israel.
7 And he said David to Solomon (O son my *Q(K)*) I it was with heart my to build a house for [the] name of Yahweh God my.
And David said to Solomon: 'My son, as for me, it was in my heart to build a house unto the name of the LORD my God.
8 And it came to me [the] word of Yahweh saying blood to abundance you have shed and wars great you have made not you will build a house for name my for blood much you have shed [the] ground towards before me.
But the word of the LORD came to me, saying: Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars; thou shalt not build a house unto My name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in My sight.
9 Here! a son [is] about to be born to you he he will be a man of rest and I will give rest to him from all enemies his from round about for Solomon it will be name his and peace and quietness I will give to Israel in days his.
Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.
10 He he will build a house for name my and he he will become of me a son and I of him a father and I will establish [the] throne of kingdom his over Israel until perpetuity.
He shall build a house for My name; and he shall be to Me for a son, and I will be to him for a father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
11 Now O son my may he be Yahweh with you and you will be successful and you will build [the] house of Yahweh God your just as he spoke on you.
Now, my son, the LORD be with thee; and prosper thou, and build the house of the LORD thy God, as He hath spoken concerning thee.
12 Only may he give to you Yahweh insight and understanding and he will appoint you over Israel and to keep [the] law of Yahweh God your.
Only the LORD give thee discretion and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel; that so thou mayest keep the law of the LORD thy God.
13 Then you will be successful if you will take care to observe the statutes and the judgments which he commanded Yahweh Moses on Israel be strong and be courageous may not you be afraid and may not you be dismayed.
Then shalt thou prosper, if thou observe to do the statutes and the ordinances which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel; be strong, and of good courage; fear not, neither be dismayed.
14 And here! in affliction my I have prepared for [the] house of Yahweh gold talents one hundred thousand and silver one thousand thousand talents and [belongs] to the bronze and to the iron not weight for to abundance it is and wood and stone I have prepared and to them you will add.
Now, behold, in my straits I have prepared for the house of the LORD a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance; timber also and stone have I prepared; and thou mayest add thereto.
15 And [are] with you to abundance doers of work stone cutters and craftsmen of stone and wood and every skillful [person] in every work.
Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all men that are skilful in any manner of work;
16 Of gold of silver and of bronze and of iron there not [is] number arise and act so may he be Yahweh with you.
of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing, and the LORD be with thee.'
17 And he commanded David to all [the] officials of Israel to help Solomon son his.
David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son:
18 ¿ Not [is] Yahweh God your with you and has he given rest? to you from round about for - he has given in hand my [the] inhabitants of the land and it has been subdued the land before Yahweh and before people his.
'Is not the LORD your God with you? and hath He not given you rest on every side? for He hath delivered the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD, and before His people.
19 Now set heart your and being your to seek Yahweh God your and arise and build [the] sanctuary of Yahweh God to bring [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh and [the] articles of holiness of God to the house that will be built for [the] name of Yahweh.
Now set your heart and your soul to seek after the LORD your God; arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the LORD.'
