2 Chronicles 8
1 Solomon’s [workers] worked for 20 years to build the temple and the king’s palace.
Pripetilo se je ob koncu dvajsetih let, v katerih je Salomon zgradil Gospodovo hišo in svojo lastno hišo,
2 Then his [workers] rebuilt the cities that [King] Hiram had given back to Solomon, and Solomon sent Israelis to live in those cities.
da je mesta, ki jih je Hurám povrnil Salomonu, Salomon pozidal in Izraelovim otrokom velel, da prebivajo tam.
3 Solomon’s [army] then went to Hamath-Zobah [town] and captured it.
Salomon je odšel v Hamát Cobo in prevladal zoper njo.
4 His workers also rebuilt walls around Tadmor [town] in the desert, and in [the] Hamath [region] in all the towns where they kept supplies.
Zgradil je Tadmór v divjini in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je zgradil v Hamátu.
5 They rebuilt Upper Beth-Horon [town] and Lower Beth-Horon [city], and built walls around them with gates [in the walls] and bars [to fasten the gates].
Zgradil je tudi zgornji Bet Horón in spodnji Bet Horón, utrjeni mesti, z obzidji, velikimi vrati in zapahi,
6 They also rebuilt Baalath [town] and all the cities where supplies were kept and the cities where Solomon’s chariots and horses were kept. Solomon’s [workers] built whatever he wanted them to build, in Jerusalem and in Lebanon, and in other places in the area that he ruled.
ter Baalát in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je imel Salomon in vsa mesta bojnih vozov in mesta konjenikov in vse, kar je Salomon želel zgraditi v Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu in po vsej deželi svojega gospostva.
7 Solomon forced people from many other groups who were not Israelis to work for him like slaves. They were people from the Heth, Amor, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus people-groups.
Glede vsega ljudstva, ki je preostalo od Hetejcev, Amoréjcev, Perizéjcev, Hivéjcev in Jebusejcev, ki niso bili iz Izraela,
8 They were descendants of groups whom the Israelis had not completely destroyed. Solomon forced them to become his slaves, and they are still slaves.
temveč od njihovih otrok, ki so za njimi ostali v deželi, katerih Izraelovi otroci niso ugonobili, te je Salomon primoral, da plačujejo davek do tega dne.
9 But Solomon did not force Israelis to work for him. Israelis became his soldiers and commanders of his chariots and his chariot-drivers.
Toda izmed Izraelovih otrok Salomon ni naredil nobenega služabnika za svoje delo, temveč so bili bojevniki, vodje poveljnikov, poveljniki njegovih bojnih vozov in konjeniki.
10 They were also King Solomon’s chief officials. There were 250 of them, and they supervised the workers.
Ti so bili vodje častnikov kralja Salomona, celó dvesto petdeset, ki so nadzorovali ljudstvo.
11 Solomon moved his wife, who was the daughter of the king of Egypt, from [the place outside Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’ to the place that his workers had built for her. He said, “I do not want my wife to live in the palace that [my father] King David’s workers built, because the Sacred Chest [was in that palace for a while], and any place where the Sacred Chest has been is holy.”
Salomon je iz Davidovega mesta privedel gor faraonovo hčer v hišo, ki jo je zgradil zanjo, kajti rekel je: »Moja žena ne bo prebivala v hiši Izraelovega kralja Davida, ker so prostori, kamor je prišla Gospodova skrinja, sveti.«
12 On the altar that Solomon’s [workers] had built in front of the entrance [to the temple], Solomon sacrificed many offerings that were to be completely burned.
Potem je Salomon daroval žgalne daritve Gospodu, na Gospodovem oltarju, ki ga je zgradil pred preddverjem,
13 He did that to obey the rules about what sacrifices Moses had declared should be made. These included sacrifices for every day and for the Sabbath days and to celebrate each day on which there was a new moon and for the three other festivals that were celebrated each year. Those festivals were the Festival of Eating Unleavened Bread, the Harvest Festival, and the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
celo po določeni meri so vsak dan darovali glede na Mojzesovo zapoved na šabate, na mlaje, na slovesne praznike, trikrat letno, torej na praznik nekvašenega kruha, na praznik tednov in na šotorski praznik.
14 Obeying what his father David had commanded, he appointed the groups of priests for their work, and he appointed the descendants of Levi to lead the people while they sang to praise Yahweh and while they assisted the priests in their daily work. He also appointed groups of them to guard all the gates, because that was also what David, the man who pleased God [very well], had commanded.
Glede na red svojega očeta Davida je določil skupine duhovnikov k njihovi službi in Lévijevce k njihovim zadolžitvam, da hvalijo in služijo pred duhovniki, kakor je zahtevala dolžnost vsakega dne. Tudi vratarje po njihovih skupinah pri vsakih velikih vratih, kajti tako je zapovedal David, Božji mož.
15 The priests and other descendants of Levi obeyed completely everything that the king commanded, including [taking care of] the storerooms.
Niso se odvrnili od kraljeve zapovedi glede katerekoli zadeve duhovnikov in Lévijevcev ali glede zakladnic.
16 They did all the work [of building the temple] that Solomon told them to do, until it was all completed. So they finishing building the temple.
Torej vse Salomonovo delo je bilo pripravljeno do dneva [položitve] temelja Gospodove hiše in dokler ta ni bila dokončana. Tako je bila Gospodova hiša popolna.
17 Then some of Solomon’s men went to Ezion-Geber and Elath [cities] on the coast of the Red Sea, an area that belonged to the Edom people-group.
Potem je Salomon odšel v Ecjón Geber in v Elot pri morski obali v edómski deželi.
18 King Hiram sent to Solomon from [Tyre city] some ships that were commanded by his officers. They were men who were experienced sailors. These men went in the ships with Solomon’s men to [the] Ophir [region] and brought back about 17 tons of gold, which they delivered to King Solomon.
Hurám mu je po roki svojih služabnikov poslal ladje in služabnike, ki so imeli znanje o morju, in ti so s Salomonovimi služabniki odšli v Ofír in od tam vzeli štiristo petdeset talentov zlata ter jih prinesli kralju Salomonu.
