2 Chronicles 2
1 And Solomon saith to build a house for the name of Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom,
Decrevit autem Salomon aedificare domum nomini Domini, et palatium sibi.
2 and Solomon numbereth seventy thousand men bearing burden, and eighty thousand men hewing in the mountain, and overseers over them — three thousand and six hundred.
Et numeravit septuaginta millia virorum portantium humeris, et octoginta millia qui caederent lapides in montibus, praepositosque eorum tria millia sexcentos.
3 And Solomon sendeth unto Huram king of Tyre, saying, 'When thou hast dealt with David my father, then thou dost send to him cedars to build for him a house to dwell in;
Misit quoque ad Hiram regem Tyri, dicens: Sicut egisti cum David patre meo, et misisti ei ligna cedrina ut aedificaret sibi domum, in qua et habitavit:
4 lo, I am building a house to the name of Jehovah my God, to sanctify [it] to Him, to make perfume before Him, perfume of spices, and a continual arrangement, and burnt-offerings at morning and at evening, at sabbaths, and at new moons, and at appointed seasons of Jehovah our God; to the age this [is] on Israel.
sic fac mecum ut aedificem domum nomini Domini Dei mei, ut consecrem eam ad adolendum incensum coram illo, et fumiganda aromata, et ad propositionem panum sempiternam, et ad holocautomata mane, et vespere, sabbatis quoque, et neomeniis, et sollemnitatibus Domini Dei nostri in sempiternum, quae mandata sunt Israeli.
5 'And the house that I am building [is] great, for greater [is] our God than all gods;
Domus enim, quam aedificare cupio, magna est: magnus est enim Deus noster super omnes deos.
6 and who doth retain strength to build to Him a house, for the heavens, even the heavens of the heavens, do not contain Him? and who [am] I that I do build to Him a house, except to make perfume before Him?
Quis ergo poterit praevalere, ut aedificet ei dignam domum? si caelum, et caeli caelorum capere eum nequeunt: quantus ego sum, ut possim aedificare ei domum? sed ad hoc tantum, ut adoleatur incensum coram illo.
7 'And now, send to me a wise man to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and knowing to grave gravings with the wise men who [are] with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father prepared;
Mitte ergo mihi virum eruditum, qui noverit operari in auro, et argento, aere, et ferro, purpura, coccino, et hyacintho, et qui sciat sculpere caelaturas cum his artificibus, quos mecum habeo in Iudaea, et Ierusalem, quos praeparavit David pater meus.
8 and send to me cedar-trees, firs, and algums from Lebanon, for I have known that thy servants know to cut down trees of Lebanon, and lo, my servants [are] with thy servants,
Sed et ligna cedrina mitte mihi, et arceuthina, et pinea de Libano: scio enim quod servi tui noverint caedere ligna de Libano, et erunt servi mei cum servis tuis,
9 even to prepare for me trees in abundance, for the house that I am building [is] great and wonderful.
ut parentur mihi ligna plurima. Domus enim, quam cupio aedificare, magna est nimis, et inclyta.
10 'And lo, to hewers, to those cutting the trees, I have given beaten wheat to thy servants, cors twenty thousand, and barley, cors twenty thousand, and wine, baths twenty thousand, and oil, baths twenty thousand.'
Praeterea operariis, qui caesuri sunt ligna, servis tuis dabo in cibaria tritici coros viginti millia, et hordei coros totidem, olei quoque sata viginti millia.
11 And Huram king of Tyre saith in writing, and sendeth unto Solomon: 'In the love of Jehovah to His people He hath given thee king over them.'
Dixit autem Hiram rex Tyri per litteras, quas miserat Salomoni: Quia dilexit Dominus populum suum, idcirco te regnare fecit super eum.
12 And Huram saith, 'Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, who hath given to David the king a wise son, knowing wisdom and understanding, who doth build a house for Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom.
Et addidit, dicens: Benedictus Dominus Deus Israel, qui fecit caelum et terram, qui dedit David regi filium sapientem et eruditum et sensatum atque prudentem, ut aedificaret domum Domino, et palatium sibi.
13 'And now, I have sent a wise man having understanding, of Huram my father,
Misi ergo tibi virum prudentem et scientissimum Hiram, ut patrem meum,
14 (son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father a man of Tyre), knowing to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stones, and in wood, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson, and to grave any graving, and to devise any device that is given to him, with thy wise men, and the wise men of my lord David thy father.
filium mulieris de filiabus Dan, cuius pater fuit Tyrius, qui novit operari in auro, et argento, aere, et ferro, et marmore, et lignis, in purpura quoque, et hyacintho, et bysso, et coccino: et qui scit caelare omnem sculpturam, et adinvenire prudenter quodcumque in opere necessarium est cum artificibus tuis, et cum artificibus domini mei David patris tui.
15 'And, now, the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the wine, as my lord said, let him send to his servants,
Triticum ergo, et hordeum, et oleum, et vinum, quae pollicitus es domine mi, mitte servis tuis.
16 and we — we cut trees out of Lebanon, according to all thy need, and bring them in to thee — floats by sea, to Joppa, and thou dost take them up to Jerusalem.'
Nos autem caedemus ligna de Libano, quot necessaria habueris, et applicabimus ea ratibus per mare in Ioppe: tuum autem erit transferre ea in Ierusalem.
17 And Solomon numbereth all the men, the sojourners who [are] in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them, and they are found a hundred and fifty thousand, and three thousand, and six hundred;
Numeravit igitur Salomon omnes viros proselytos, qui erant in terra Israel, post dinumerationem, quam dinumeravit David pater eius, et inventi sunt centum quinquaginta tria millia et sexcenti.
18 and he maketh of them seventy thousand burden-bearers, and eighty thousand hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers, to cause the people to work.
Fecitque ex eis septuaginta millia, qui humeris onera portarent, et octoginta millia, qui lapides de montibus caederent: tria autem millia et sexcentos praepositos operum populi.
