< I Paralipomenon 22 >
1 Dixitque David: Haec est domus Dei, et hoc altare in holocaustum Israeli.
And Dauid saide, This is the house of the Lord God, and this is the altar for the burnt offring of Israel.
2 Et praecepit ut congregarentur omnes proselyti de Terra Israel, et constituit ex eis latomos ad caedendos lapides et poliendos, ut aedificaretur domus Dei.
And Dauid commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the lande of Israel, and he set masons to hewe and polish stones to builde the house of God.
3 Ferrum quoque plurimum ad clavos ianuarum, et ad commissuras atque iuncturas praeparavit David: et aeris pondus innumerabile.
Dauid also prepared much yron for the nayles of the doores and of the gates, and for the ioynings, and abundance of brasse passing weight,
4 Ligna quoque cedrina non poterant aestimari, quae Sidonii, et Tyrii deportaverant ad David.
And cedar trees without nomber: for the Zidonians and they of Tyrus brought much cedar wood to Dauid.
5 Et dixit David: Solomon filius meus puer parvulus est et delicatus; domus autem, quam aedificari volo Domino, talis esse debet ut in cunctis regionibus nominetur: praeparabo ergo ei necessaria. Et ob hanc causam ante mortem suam omnes praeparavit impensas.
And Dauid saide, Salomon my sonne is yong and tender, and we must builde an house for the Lord, magnificall, excellent and of great fame and dignitie throughout all countreyes. I will therefore nowe prepare for him. So Dauid prepared very much before his death.
6 Vocavitque Salomonem filium suum: et praecepit ei ut aedificaret domum Domino Deo Israel.
Then he called Salomon his sonne, and charged him to builde an house for the Lord God of Israel.
7 Dixitque David ad Salomonem: Fili mi, voluntatis meae fuit ut aedificarem domum nomini Domini Dei mei,
And Dauid said to Salomon, My sonne, I purposed with my selfe to builde an house to the Name of the Lord my God,
8 sed factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens: Multum sanguinem effudisti, et plurima bella bellasti: non poteris aedificare domum nomini meo, tanto effuso sanguine coram me:
But the worde of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed much blood, and hast made great battels: thou shalt not builde an house vnto my Name: for thou hast shead much blood vpon the earth in my sight.
9 filius, qui nascetur tibi, erit vir quietissimus: faciam enim eum requiescere ab omnibus inimicis suis per circuitum: et ob hanc causam Pacificus vocabitur: et pacem et otium dabo in Israel cunctis diebus eius.
Beholde, a sonne is borne to thee, which shalbe a man of rest, for I will giue him rest from all his enemies rounde about: therefore his name is Salomon: and I will sende peace and quietnes vpon Israel in his dayes.
10 Ipse aedificabit domum nomini meo, et ipse erit mihi in filium, et ego ero illi in patrem: firmaboque solium regni eius super Israel in aeternum.
Hee shall builde an house for my Name, and he shalbe my sonne, and I will be his father, and I will establish the throne of his kingdome vpon Israel for euer.
11 Nunc ergo fili mi, sit Dominus tecum, et prosperare, et aedifica domum Domino Deo tuo, sicut locutus est de te.
Nowe therefore my sonne, the Lord shalbe with thee, and thou shalt prosper, and thou shalt builde an house to the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken of thee.
12 Det quoque Dominus prudentiam et sensum, ut regere possis Israel, et custodire legem Domini Dei tui.
Onely the Lord giue thee wisedome and vnderstanding, and giue thee charge ouer Israel, euen to keepe the Lawe of the Lord thy God.
13 Tunc enim proficere poteris, si custodieris mandata, et iudicia, quae praecepit Dominus Moysi ut doceret Israel: confortare et viriliter age, ne timeas, neque paveas.
Then thou shalt prosper, if thou take heede to obserue the statutes and the iudgements which the Lord commanded Moses for Israel: be strong and of good courage: feare not, neither bee afraide.
14 Ecce ego in paupertate mea praeparavi impensas domus Domini, auri talenta centum millia, et argenti mille millia talentorum: aeris vero, et ferri non est pondus, vincitur enim numerus magnitudine: ligna et lapides praeparavi ad universa impendia.
For beholde, according to my pouertie haue I prepared for the house of the Lord an hundreth thousand talents of golde, and a thousand thousande talents of siluer, and of brasse and of yron passing weight: for there was abundance: I haue also prepared timber and stone, and thou mayest prouide more thereto.
15 Habes quoque plurimos artifices, latomos, et caementarios, artificesque lignorum, et omnium artium ad faciendum opus prudentissimos,
Moreouer thou hast workmen with thee enough, hewers of stone, and workemen for timber, and all men expert in euery worke.
16 in auro et argento et aere et ferro, cuius non est numerus. Surge igitur, et fac, et erit Dominus tecum.
Of golde, of siluer, and of brasse, and of yron there is no nomber: Vp therefore, and be doing, and the Lord wilbe with thee.
17 Praecepit quoque David cunctis principibus Israel, ut adiuvarent Salomonem filium suum.
Dauid also commanded all the princes of Israel to helpe Salomon his sonne, saying,
18 Cernitis, inquiens, quod Dominus Deus vester vobiscum sit, et dederit vobis requiem per circuitum, et tradiderit omnes inimicos vestros in manus vestras, et subiecta sit terra coram Domino, et coram populo eius.
Is not the Lord your God with you, and hath giuen you rest on euerie side? for hee hath giuen the inhabitants of the land into mine hand, and the land is subdued before the Lord and before his people.
19 Praebete igitur corda vestra et animas vestras, ut quaeratis Dominum Deum vestrum: et consurgite, et aedificate sanctuarium Domino Deo, ut introducatur arca foederis Domini, et vasa Domino consecrata, in domum, quae aedificatur nomini Domini.
Nowe set your hearts and your soules to seeke the Lord your God, and arise, and builde the Sanctuarie of the Lord God to bring the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God into the house built for the Name of the Lord.
