1 Kings 9

1 When Solomon had finished the building of the LORD’s house, the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

And it was when had finished Solomon to build [the] house of Yahweh and [the] house of the king and all [the] desire of Solomon which he delighted to do.

2 The LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

And he appeared Yahweh to Solomon a second [time] just as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

3 The LORD said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before me. I have made this house holy, which you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

And he said Yahweh to him I have heard prayer your and supplication your which you have sought favor before me I have consecrated the house this which you have built by putting name my there until perpetuity and they will be eyes my and heart my there all the days.

4 As for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances,

And you if you will walk before me just as he walked David father your in integrity of heart and in uprightness by doing according to all that I have commanded you statutes my and judgments my you will keep.

5 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised to David your father, saying, ‘There shall not fail from you a man on the throne of Israel.’

And I will establish [the] throne of kingdom your over Israel for ever just as I spoke on David father your saying not it will be cut off to you a man from on [the] throne of Israel.

6 But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods and worship them,

Certainly [if] you will turn back! you and descendants your from after me and not you will keep commandments my statutes my which I have set before you and you will walk and you will serve gods other and you will bow down to them.

7 then I will cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and I will cast this house, which I have made holy for my name, out of my sight; and Israel will be a proverb and a byword among all peoples.

And I will cut off Israel from on [the] surface of the ground which I have given to them and the house which I have consecrated for name my I will cast out from on face my and it will become Israel a byword and a taunt among all the peoples.

8 Though this house is so high, yet everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss; and they will say, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this land and to this house?’

And the house this it will be most high every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he will hiss and people will say concerning what? did he do Yahweh thus to the land this and to the house this.

9 and they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and embraced other gods, and worshiped them, and served them. Therefore the LORD has brought all this evil on them.’”

And they will say on that they forsook Yahweh God their who he brought out ancestors their from [the] land of Egypt and they took hold on gods other (and they bowed down *Q(K)*) to them and they served them there-fore he has brought Yahweh on them all the calamity this.

10 At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the LORD’s house and the king’s house

And it was from [the] end of twenty year[s] which he had built Solomon [the] two the houses [the] house of Yahweh and [the] house of the king.

11 (now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and cypress trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

Hiram [the] king of Tyre he had supported Solomon with wood of cedar and with wood of cypresses and with gold to all desire his then he gave the king Solomon to Hiram twenty citi[es] in [the] land of Galilee.

12 Hiram came out of Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they didn’t please him.

And he came out Hiram from Tyre to see the cities which he had given to him Solomon and not they were pleasing in view his.

13 He said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” He called them the land of Cabul to this day.

And he said what? [are] the cities these which you have given to me O brother my and someone called them [the] land of Cabul until the day this.

14 Hiram sent to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold.

And he had sent Hiram to the king one hundred and twenty talent[s] of gold.

15 This is the reason of the forced labor which King Solomon conscripted: to build the LORD’s house, his own house, Millo, Jerusalem’s wall, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.

And this [is] [the] word of the forced labor which he raised - the king Solomon to build [the] house of Yahweh and own house his and the Millo and [the] wall of Jerusalem and Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer.

16 Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, taken Gezer, burned it with fire, killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a wedding gift to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt he had gone up and he had captured Gezer and he had burned it with fire and the Canaanite[s] who was dwelling in the city he had killed and he had given it dowri to daughter his [the] wife of Solomon.

19 all the storage cities that Solomon had, the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

And all [the] cities of storage which they belonged to Solomon and [the] cities of the chariotry and [the] cities of the horsemen and - [the] desire of Solomon which he desired to build in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all [the] land of dominion his.

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 children of Israel—

All the people which remained of the Amorite[s] the Hittite[s] the Perizzite[s] the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s] who not [were] of [the] people of Israel they.

21 their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy—of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.

Descendants their who they were left after them in the land whom not they were able [the] people of Israel to totally destroy them and he raised them Solomon to forced labor of laboring until the day this.

22 But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, his servants, his princes, his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.

And any of [the] people of Israel not he made Solomon a slave for they [were] [the] men of war and servants his and officials his and officers his and [the] commanders of chariotry his and horsemen his.

23 These were the five hundred fifty chief officers who were over Solomon’s work, who ruled over the people who labored in the work.

These - [were] [the] leaders of the overseers who [were] over the work of Solomon fifty and five hundred who ruled over the people who were doing the work.

24 But Pharaoh’s daughter came up out of David’s city to her house which Solomon had built for her. Then he built Millo.

Only [the] daughter of Pharaoh she went up from [the] city of David to own house her which he had built for her then he built the Millo.

25 Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD three times per year, burning incense with them on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.

And he offered up Solomon three times in the year burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he had built for Yahweh and he made smoke with it which [was] before Yahweh and he completed the house.

26 King Solomon made a fleet of ships in Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Sea of Suf, in the land of Edom.

And ship[s] he made the king Solomon at Ezion Geber which [is] with Elath on [the] shore of [the] sea of reed[s] in [the] land of Edom.

27 Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

And he sent Hiram in the ship[s] servants his men of ships [who] knew the sea with [the] servants of Solomon.

28 They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to King Solomon.

And they went Ophir towards and they took from there gold four hundred and twenty talent[s] and they brought [it] to the king Solomon.
