< 1 Chronicles 28 >
1 And he called together David all [the] officials of Israel [the] leaders of the tribes and [the] commanders of the divisions who served the king and [the] commanders of the thousands and [the] commanders of the hundreds and [the] officials of all [the] property and livestock - of the king and of sons his with the court-officials and the mighty [men] and to every mighty [man] of strength to Jerusalem.
[達味宣佈建殿]達味召集了以色列的眾首長、各支派首長、值班服事君王的首長、千夫長、百夫長、掌管軍人及王室子女財產牲畜的首長,以及太監、勇士和眾顯要,到耶路撒冷來。
2 And he arose David the king on feet his and he said listen to me O brothers my and people my I [was] with heart my to build a house of rest for [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh and to [the] footstool of [the] feet of God our and I prepared to build.
達味王站起來說道:「我的弟兄,我的百姓,請聽我的話! 我原有意為上主的約櫃,即為我們天主的腳凳,建造一座安放的殿宇,並且我已作了建造的準備;
3 And God he said to me not you will build a house for name my for [are] a man of wars you and blood you have shed.
然而天主對我說:你不可為我的名建築殿宇,因為你是一個軍人,流過人的血。
4 And he chose Yahweh [the] God of Israel me from all [the] house of father my to become king over Israel for ever for Judah he chose to ruler and among [the] house of Judah [the] house of father my and among [the] sons of father my in me he took pleasure to make [me] king over all Israel.
上主以色列的天主,由我父全家中選拔了我永遠作王,統治以色列,因為他選拔了猶大為長,由猷大家族中又選拔了我的父家,在我父親的兒子中,他喜愛我,立我作王,統治全以色列;
5 And from all sons my for many sons he has given to me Yahweh and he has chosen Solomon son my to sit on [the] throne of [the] kingdom of Yahweh over Israel.
他又從我的眾子中,─因為上主賞賜了我許多兒子,選拔了我兒撒羅滿,坐上主王國的寶座,治理以色列。
6 And he said to me Solomon son your he he will build house my and courts my for I have chosen him for myself to a son and I I will become of him a father.
他這樣對我說:是你的兒子撒羅滿要為我建築殿宇和庭院,因為我以選了他作我的兒子,我要作他的父親。
7 And I will establish kingdom his until for ever if he will be strong to observe commandments my and judgments my as the day this.
如果他堅守遵行我的誡命和法律,如同今日一樣,我必鞏固他的王權直到永遠。
8 And therefore to [the] eyes of all Israel [the] assembly of Yahweh and in [the] ears of God our observe and seek all [the] commandments of Yahweh God your so that you may possess the land good and you will give [it] as inheritance to descendants your after you until perpetuity.
所以現今當著全以色列,上主的會眾面前,在我們天主聽聞之下,我勸你們必須遵守並尋求上主,你們天主的一切誡命,好使你們保有這塊美麗的地方,永遠遺留給你們的子孫。
9 And you O Solomon son my know [the] God of father your and serve him with a heart complete and with a being willing for all hearts [is] searching Yahweh and every inclination of thoughts [he is] understanding if you will seek him he will let himself be found by you and if you will forsake him he will reject you for ever.
至於你、我兒撒羅滿! 你要認識你父親的天主,全心樂意事奉他,因為上主洞察所有人的心,知道人的一切心思欲念。如果你尋求他,他必使你尋獲;如果你背判他,他必要永遠拋棄你。
10 See - now that Yahweh he has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary be strong and act.
現在,你該注意,因為上主揀選了你建築殿宇作為他的聖所,你要勇敢去行。」[交付聖殿圖樣]
11 And he gave David to Solomon son his [the] pattern of the porch and houses its and treasuries its and upper rooms its and rooms its inner and [the] house of the atonement cover.
達味遂將門廊、廂房、府庫、樓閣、內室和至聖所的圖樣,交給了他的兒子撒羅滿;
12 And [the] pattern of all that it was in the spirit with him for [the] courts of [the] house of Yahweh and for all the rooms all around for [the] storehouses of [the] house of God and for [the] storehouses of the holy things.
將他心中關於上主殿宇的庭院,周圍的房屋,天主殿內的府庫,聖物的府庫所有的圖樣,
13 And for [the] divisions of the priests and the Levites and for all [the] work of [the] service of [the] house of Yahweh and for all [the] articles of [the] service of [the] house of Yahweh.
以及關於司祭和肋未人的班次,在上主殿內應行的一切禮儀,上主殿內行禮儀時應用的一切器皿,都指示給他,
14 For the gold by the weight of the gold for all articles of service and service for all [the] articles of silver by weight for all articles of service and service.
並給他指定用多少份量的金子,製各種禮儀應使用的一切金器;用多少份量的銀子,製各種歷任應使用的一切銀器,
15 And [the] weight of [the] lampstands of gold and lamps their gold by weight of a lampstand and a lampstand and lamps its and of [the] lampstands of silver by weight of a lampstand and lamps its according to [the] service of a lampstand and a lampstand.
用多少份量的金子,製金燈台及台上的金燈,用多少份量製每盞金燈台及台上的金燈;用多少份量的銀子,製銀燈台及台上的銀燈,每盞銀燈台及台上銀燈的重量,按每盞燈台的用途應用多少;
16 And the gold weight for [the] tables of the row for a table and a table and silver for [the] tables of silver.
用多少份量的金子,製供餅的桌子,每張應用多少;用多少銀子製銀桌子;
17 And the forks and the bowls and the jugs gold pure and for [the] bowls of gold by weight for a bowl and a bowl and for [the] bowls of silver by weight for a bowl and a bowl.
用多少份量的純金,製叉、盤和壺;用多少份量的金子,製各種金碗,每隻碗重量多少;用多少份量的銀子,製各種銀碗,每隻碗重量多少;
18 And for [the] altar of incense gold purified by weight and [the] pattern of the chariot the cherubim gold for spreading out and covering over [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh.
用多少份量的純金,製造香壇;最後給他指定了車子的圖樣,即展開翅膀遮蓋上主的約櫃的金革魯的圖樣:
19 Everything in writing from [the] hand of Yahweh on me he made clear all [the] works of the pattern.
這一切,即這一切工作的圖樣,都給他按照上主的指示劃了出來。[勸勉撒羅滿]
20 And he said David to Solomon son his be strong and be brave and act may not you be afraid and may not you be dismayed for Yahweh God God my [is] with you not he will abandon you and not he will forsake you until is complete all [the] work of [the] service of [the] house of Yahweh.
達味又對他的兒子撒羅滿說:「你要勇敢勉力去行,不必害怕,不必畏懼,因為上主天主,我的天主必與你同在;他決不遠離你,決不拋棄你,直到你完成修築上主殿宇的一切工作。
21 And there! [the] divisions of the priests and the Levites for all [the] service of [the] house of God and [will be] with you in all [the] work every willing [person] with skill for every service and the officials and all the people [are] to all words your.
你看,司祭和肋未人已分好班次,奉行天主殿內的事務;在各種工作上,又有各種的巧匠自願輔助你,首領和全體人民又都聽你的指揮。」
