1 Kings 9
1 After Solomon had finished building the house of Yahweh and the king's palace, and after he had accomplished all that he wanted to do,
Setelah Salomo selesai mendirikan Rumah TUHAN dan istana raja serta semua yang direncanakannya,
2 Yahweh appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
TUHAN menampakkan diri lagi kepadanya seperti yang terjadi di Gibeon.
3 Then Yahweh said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your request that you have made before me. I have set apart this house, which you have built, to myself, to put my name there forever. My eyes and my heart will be there for all time.
TUHAN berkata kepadanya, "Doamu sudah Kudengar, dan dengan ini rumah yang telah kaudirikan ini Kunyatakan menjadi tempat khusus untuk beribadat kepada-Ku selama-lamanya. Aku akan selalu memperhatikan dan menjaga tempat ini.
4 As for you, if you walk before me as David your father walked in integrity of heart and in uprightness, obeying all that I have commanded you and keeping my statutes and my decrees,
Kalau engkau mengabdi kepada-Ku dengan tulus hati dan jujur seperti ayahmu Daud, dan engkau mentaati hukum-hukum dan perintah-perintah-Ku,
5 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised David your father, saying, 'A descendant of yours will never fail to be on the throne of Israel.'
maka Aku akan menepati janji-Ku kepada ayahmu Daud bahwa anak cucunya turun-temurun akan selalu memerintah Israel.
6 But if you turn away, you or your children, and do not keep my commandments and my statutes that I have placed before you, and if you go and worship other gods and bow down to them,
Tetapi kalau engkau atau keturunanmu membelakangi Aku dan tidak taat kepada hukum-hukum dan perintah-perintah-Ku serta engkau menyembah ilah-ilah lain,
7 then will I cut off Israel from off the ground that I have given them; and this house that I have set apart to my name, I will cast it out of my sight, and Israel will become an example to be mocked and an object of ridicule among all peoples.
maka Aku akan mengusir umat-Ku Israel dari negeri yang telah Kuberikan kepada mereka. Aku juga akan meninggalkan rumah ini yang telah Kutetapkan menjadi tempat ibadat kepada-Ku. Di mana-mana orang Israel akan dihina dan ditertawakan.
8 This temple will become a heap of ruins, and everyone who passes by it will be shocked and will hiss. They will ask, 'Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this house?'
Rumah ibadat ini akan menjadi suatu timbunan puing sehingga setiap orang yang lewat di situ akan terkejut dan ngeri. Mereka akan berkata, 'Mengapa TUHAN berbuat begitu terhadap negeri dan rumah ini?'
9 Others will answer, 'Because they forsook Yahweh, their God, who had brought their ancestors out of the land of Egypt, and they laid hold of other gods and bowed down to them and worshiped them. That is why Yahweh has brought all this disaster on them.'”
Lalu orang akan menjawab, 'Karena mereka meninggalkan TUHAN, Allah mereka, yang telah mengantar leluhur mereka keluar dari Mesir. Mereka menyembah ilah-ilah lain. Itulah sebabnya TUHAN mendatangkan bencana ini ke atas mereka.'"
10 It came about at the end of twenty years that Solomon had finished building the two buildings, the temple of Yahweh and the king's palace.
Salomo membangun Rumah TUHAN dan istana raja dalam waktu dua puluh tahun.
11 Now Hiram, the king of Tyre, had furnished Solomon with cedar and cypress trees, and with gold—all that Solomon desired—so King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
Semua kayu cemara Libanon dan kayu cemara biasa serta semua emas yang diperlukan Salomo untuk pembangunan itu telah diberikan Raja Hiram kepadanya. Setelah pekerjaan itu selesai, Raja Salomo memberikan kepada Hiram dua puluh buah kota di wilayah Galilea.
12 Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, but they did not please him.
Maka pergilah Hiram melihatnya, tetapi ia tidak senang dengan pemberian itu.
13 So Hiram said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” Hiram called them the Land of Kabul, which they are still called today.
Ia berkata kepada Salomo, "Saudaraku, beginikah macamnya kota-kota yang kauberikan kepadaku?" Itulah sebabnya daerah itu masih disebut Kabul.
14 Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents of gold.
Lebih dari 4.000 kilogram emas telah dikirim Hiram kepada Salomo.
15 This is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon imposed to build the temple of Yahweh and his own palace, the Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Raja Salomo memakai cara kerja paksa untuk membangun Rumah TUHAN, istana raja, tembok Yerusalem dan untuk menimbun tanah di sebelah selatan Rumah TUHAN. Ia memakai cara yang sama untuk membangun kembali kota Hazor, Megido dan Gezer.
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and taken Gezer. He burned it and killed the Canaanites in the city. Then Pharaoh gave the city to his daughter, Solomon's wife, as a wedding gift.
(Kota Gezer adalah kota yang dahulu diserang dan dikalahkan oleh raja Mesir, lalu penduduknya dibunuh dan kotanya dibakar. Kota itu kemudian diberikan oleh raja Mesir kepada putrinya sebagai hadiah pada hari pernikahannya dengan Salomo.
17 So Solomon rebuilt Gezer and Beth Horon the Lower,
Dan Salomolah yang membangun kembali kota itu.) Dengan kerja paksa juga, Salomo membangun kembali Bet-Horon-Hilir,
18 Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness in the land of Judah,
Baalat, Tamar di padang gurun Yehuda,
19 and all the store cities that he possessed, and the cities for his chariots and the cities for his horsemen, and whatever he wished to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the lands under his rule.
kota-kota perbekalan, serta kota-kota untuk pangkalan kereta perang dan kudanya. Semua rencana pembangunan di Yerusalem, Libanon, dan di seluruh wilayah kekuasaannya telah dilaksanakannya.
20 As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the people of Israel,
Untuk kerja paksa itu Salomo mengerahkan orang-orang keturunan orang Amori, Het, Feris, Hewi dan Yebus. Mereka adalah orang-orang keturunan bangsa Kanaan yang tidak dapat dibunuh habis oleh orang Israel ketika mereka menduduki negeri itu. Sampai sekarang keturunan mereka masih menjadi hamba.
21 their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the people of Israel were not able to totally destroy—Solomon made them into forced laborers, which they are to this day.
22 However, Solomon made no forced laborers of the people of Israel. Instead, they became his soldiers and his servants, his officials, and his officers and commanders of his chariot forces and his horsemen.
Orang Israel tidak dijadikan hamba oleh Salomo; mereka ditugaskan sebagai prajurit, perwira, panglima, komandan kereta perang, dan tentara pasukan berkuda.
23 These were also the chief officers managing the supervisors who were over Solomon's works, 550 of them, who supervised the people who did the work.
Lima ratus lima puluh pegawai diserahi tanggung jawab atas orang-orang yang melakukan kerja paksa dalam berbagai proyek pembangunan Salomo.
24 Pharaoh's daughter moved from the city of David to the house that Solomon had built for her. Later, Solomon built the Millo.
Tanah di sebelah selatan Rumah TUHAN ditimbun oleh Salomo setelah istrinya, yaitu putri raja Mesir, pindah dari Kota Daud ke istana yang dibangun Salomo untuk dia.
25 Three times each year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar that he built for Yahweh, burning incense with them on the altar that was before Yahweh. So he completed the temple and was now using it.
Tiga kali setahun Salomo mempersembahkan kurban bakaran dan kurban perdamaian di atas mezbah yang telah didirikannya untuk TUHAN. Ia membakar juga dupa untuk TUHAN. Demikianlah Salomo menyelesaikan pembangunan Rumah TUHAN.
26 King Solomon built a fleet of ships in Ezion Geber, which is near Elath on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Untuk armadanya, Raja Salomo membuat kapal-kapal di Ezion-Geber, dekat Elot di pantai Teluk Akaba, wilayah Edom.
27 Hiram sent servants to Solomon's fleet, sailors who were familiar with the sea, with Solomon's own servants.
Raja Hiram mengirim awak-awak kapalnya yang berpengalaman untuk berlayar bersama awak-awak kapal Salomo.
28 They went to Ophir with servants of Solomon. From there they brought back 420 talents of gold for King Solomon.
Pernah mereka berlayar ke negeri Ofir untuk mengambil 14.000 kilogram emas dan membawanya kepada Salomo.
