1 Kings 9
1 After Solomon’s [workers] had finished building the temple and his palace and everything else that Solomon wanted them to build,
Kad je Salomon dovršio gradnju Doma Jahvina, kraljevskog dvora i svega što je namislio graditi,
2 Yahweh appeared to him [in a dream] a second time, like he had appeared to him at [the city of] Gibeon.
javi se Jahve i drugi put Salomonu, kao što mu se bio javio u Gibeonu.
3 Yahweh said to him, “I heard what you prayed and what you pleaded for me to do. I have set apart/dedicated this temple which your [workers] have built to be the place where people will worship me forever. I will always watch over it and protect it.
Jahve mu reče: “Uslišio sam molitvu i prošnju koju si mi uputio. Posvetio sam ovaj Dom, koji si sagradio da u njemu prebiva Ime moje dovijeka; moje će oči i srce biti ovdje svagda.
4 “And as for you, if you conduct your life as I want you to, like your father David did, and if you very sincerely obey all the statutes and laws that I have commanded you to obey,
A ti, ako budeš hodio preda mnom kako je hodio tvoj otac David, u nevinosti srca i pravednosti, postupao u svemu kako sam ti zapovjedio i ako budeš držao moje zakone i moje naredbe,
5 I will do what I promised your father that I would do: I promised him that Israel would always be ruled by his descendants.
ja ću učvrstiti zauvijek tvoje kraljevsko prijestolje nad Izraelom, kako sam obećao tvome ocu Davidu kad sam rekao: 'Nikada ti neće nestati nasljednika na prijestolju Izraelovu.'
6 “But if you or your descendants turn away from me and disobey the commands and decrees that I have given to you, and if you start to worship other gods,
Ali ako me ostavite, vi i vaši sinovi, ako ne budete držali mojih zapovijedi i zakona koje sam vam dao, ako se okrenete bogovima i budete im služili i klanjali im se,
7 I will remove my Israeli people from the land that I have given to them. I will also abandon this temple that I have set apart/dedicated to be the place where people should worship me. Then people everywhere will despise [the people of] Israel and make fun of them.
tada ću istrijebiti Izraela iz zemlje koju sam mu dao; ovaj ću Dom, koji sam posvetio svome Imenu, odbaciti od sebe, i Izrael će biti poruga i podsmijeh svim narodima.
8 This temple will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by will be astonished [when they see it], and they will be shocked and say, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this temple?’
Ovaj je Dom uzvišen, ali svi koji budu uza nj prolazili bit će zaprepašteni; zviždat će i govoriti: 'Zašto je Jahve tako učinio s ovom zemljom i s ovim Domom?'
9 And other people will reply, ‘It happened because the Israeli people abandoned Yahweh their God, the one who brought their ancestors out of Egypt. They started to accept and worship other gods. And that is why Yahweh has caused them to experience all these disasters.’”
A reći će im se: 'Jer su ostavili Jahvu, Boga svoga, koji je izveo oce njihove iz Egipta, a priklonili se drugim bogovima, častili ih i služili im, zato je Jahve pustio na njih sva ova zla.'”
10 Solomon’s [workers] labored for 20 years to build the temple and the palace.
Poslije dvadeset godina, za kojih je Salomon sagradio obje zgrade, Dom Jahvin i kraljevski dvor,
11 Hiram, the king of Tyre had [arranged for his workers to] give Solomon all the cedar and pine [logs] and all the gold that he needed [for this work]. After it was all finished, King Solomon gave to Hiram 20 cities in the Galilee region.
a Hiram, kralj Tira, dobavljao mu drvo cedrovo i čempresovo i zlata koliko je god želio, dade tada kralj Salomon Hiramu dvadeset gradova u zemlji galilejskoj.
12 But when Hiram went from Tyre [to Galilee] to see the cities that Solomon had given to him, he was not pleased with them.
Hiram izađe iz Tira da vidi gradove koje mu je Salomon darovao, ali mu se nisu svidjeli.
13 He said to Solomon, “My friend, those cities that you gave me are worthless!” So, that area is still called ‘Worthless’.
I reče: “Kakvi su to gradovi što si mi ih dao, brate?” I od tada ih zovu “zemlja Kabul” do današnjega dana.
14 Hiram paid Solomon only five tons of gold [for those cities].
A Hiram bijaše poslao kralju stotinu i dvadeset zlatnih talenata.
15 This is a record of the work that King Solomon forced men to do. He forced them to build the temple and his palace and the terraces/landfills [on the east side of the city], and the wall around Jerusalem, and [to rebuild the cities of] Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer.
Ovako je bilo s rabotom koju je kralj Salomon digao da sagradi Dom Jahvin, svoj dvor, Milo i zidove Jeruzalema, Hasor, Megido i Gezer.
16 [The reason they needed to rebuild Gezer was that the army of] the king of Egypt had attacked Gezer and captured it. Then they had burned [the houses in] the city and killed all the people of the Canaan people-group who lived there. The king of Egypt gave that city to his daughter as a gift when she married Solomon.
Faraon, kralj Egipta, krenu u vojni pohod, osvoji Gezer, popali i poubija Kanaance koji su ondje živjeli, zatim dade grad u miraz svojoj kćeri, ženi Salomonovoj,
17 So Solomon’s workers also rebuilt Gezer, and they also rebuilt Lower Beth-Horon [city].
a Salomon obnovi Gezer, Bet Horon Donji,
18 They also rebuilt Baalath and Tamar [towns] in the desert in [the southern part of] Judah.
Baalat, Tamar u pustinji u zemlji,
19 They also built cities where they kept the supplies for Solomon, the places where his horses and chariots were kept. They also built everything else that Solomon wanted them to build, in Jerusalem and in Lebanon, and in other places in the area over which he ruled.
sve gradove-skladišta koje je Salomon imao, gradove za bojna kola i gradove za konjicu, i sve što je Salomon želio sagraditi u Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu i u svim zemljama koje su mu bile podložne.
20 There were many people who belonged to the Amor people-group, the Heth people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group who were not killed when the Israelis captured their land.
Svim preostalim Amorejcima, Hetitima, Perižanima, Hivijcima i Jebusejcima, koji nisu bili Izraelci,
21 [Their descendants still lived in Israel]. It was those people whom Solomon forced to become his slaves [to build all those places], and they are still slaves.
sinovima njihovim koji ostadoše iza njih u zemlji i koje Izraelci nisu zatrli, Salomon nametnu tešku tlaku do današnjega dana.
22 But Solomon did not force any Israeli people to become slaves. Some Israelis became soldiers and army officers and commanders and drivers of his chariots and soldiers who rode on horses.
Sinove Izraelove nije Salomon pretvarao u robove, nego su mu oni bili vojnici, dvorani, vojskovođe, tridesetnici, zapovjednici njegovih bojnih kola i konjice.
23 There were 550 officials who supervised the slaves who worked [to build all those places].
A evo nadzornika koji su upravljali Salomonovim radovima: njih pet stotina i pedeset koji su zapovijedali puku zaposlenu na radovima.
24 After [Solomon’s wife, who was] the daughter of the king of Egypt, moved from [the place outside Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’ to the palace that Solomon’s workers built for her, Solomon [told his workers to] fill in the slopes on the east side of the city.
Čim je faraonova kći ušla iz Davidova grada u kuću koju joj Salomon bijaše sagradio, tada on podiže Milo.
25 Three times each year Solomon [brought to the temple] offerings that were completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to restore fellowship with Yahweh. He also brought incense to be burned in the presence of Yahweh. And so his men finished building the temple.
Salomon je tri puta u godini prinosio paljenice i pričesnice na žrtveniku koji je podigao Jahvi i palio je kad pred Jahvom. Tako je dovršio Hram.
26 King Solomon’s [workers] also built a fleet of ships at Ezion-Geber [city], which is near Elath [city], on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba, in the land belonging to the Edom people-group.
Kralj Salomon je sagradio brodovlje u Esjon-Geberu, koji je kralj Elata, na obali Crvenoga mora, u zemlji edomskoj.
27 [King] Hiram sent some very expert sailors to work on the ships with Solomon’s workers.
Hiram je poslao na tim lađama svoje sluge, mornare koji su poznavali more, sa slugama Salomonovim.
28 They sailed to [the] Ophir [region] and brought back to Solomon about 16 tons of gold.
Oni otploviše u Ofir, uzeše odande četiri stotine i dvadeset talenata zlata i donesoše ih kralju Salomonu.
