1 Crônicas 22
1 E disse David: Esta será a casa do Senhor Deus, e este será o altar do holocausto para Israel.
Then David said, “Here, [at the edge of Jerusalem, ] is where [we will build] the temple for our God Yahweh, and where [we will make] the altar for burning the offerings that the Israeli [people will bring].”
2 E deu ordem David que se ajuntassem os estranhos que estavam na terra de Israel: e ordenou cortadores de pedras, para que lavrassem pedras de cantaria, para edificar a casa de Deus.
So David commanded that the foreigners who lived in Israel must gather together. [When they did that, ] he appointed [some of those] men to [cut huge] stones [from the quarries] and to smooth their surfaces, to be used to build the temple of God.
3 E apparelhou David ferro em abundancia, para os pregos das portas das entradas, e para as junturas: como tambem cobre em abundancia, sem peso;
David provided a large amount of iron for making nails and hinges for the doors in the gates of the temple. He also provided so much bronze [for making the altar and various utensils], that no one could weigh it all.
4 E madeira de cedro sem conta: porque os sidonios e tyrios traziam a David madeira de cedro em abundancia.
He also provided [money for buying] a large amount of cedar logs. Because there was a huge number of them, no one was able to count them. Those were logs that men from Tyre and Sidon [cities] sent to David.
5 Porque dizia David: Salomão, meu filho, ainda é moço e tenro, e a casa que se ha de edificar para o Senhor se ha de fazer magnifica em excellencia, para nome e gloria em todas as terras; eu pois agora lhe prepararei materiaes. Assim preparou David materiaes em abundancia, antes da sua morte.
David [provided all those things because he] thought, “My son Solomon is still young and he does not know what he needs to know [about building], and the temple of Yahweh must be (magnificent/very beautiful). It must be a glorious building that will become famous, and people throughout the world must consider it to be glorious/splendid. So now I will begin to prepare for it to be built, [and Solomon will be responsible for building it].” So David collected a great amount of building materials before he died.
6 Então chamou a Salomão seu filho, e lhe ordenou que edificasse uma casa ao Senhor Deus de Israel.
[When] David [was old, he] summoned his son Solomon, and told him that he should arrange for a temple to be built for Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worshiped].
7 E disse David a Salomão: Filho meu, quanto a mim, tive em meu coração o edificar casa ao nome do Senhor meu Deus.
He said to him, “I wanted [IDM] to build a temple to honor [MTY] Yahweh, my God.
8 Porém a mim a palavra do Senhor veiu, dizendo: Tu derramaste sangue em abundancia, e fizeste grandes guerras; não edificarás casa ao meu nome; porquanto muito sangue tens derramado na terra, perante a minha face.
But Yahweh told [a prophet to tell] me, ‘You have killed many men [MTY] in the battles that you have fought. I have seen the blood of all the people whom you killed, so you will not be the one who will arrange for a temple to be built to honor me [MTY].
9 Eis que o filho que te nascer será homem de repouso; porque repouso lhe hei de dar de todos os seus inimigos em redor; portanto Salomão será o seu nome, e paz e descanço darei a Israel nos seus dias.
But you will have a son [who will be king of Israel after you die]. He will be a man who is peaceful and quiet, [not a man who kills others]. And I will cause that there will be peace between him and his enemies who are in all the nearby lands. His name will be Solomon, [which sounds like the word for peace]. During the time that he is king, people in Israel will be peaceful and safe.
10 Este edificará casa ao meu nome, e elle me será por filho, e eu a elle por pae; e confirmarei o throno de seu reino sobre Israel, para sempre.
He is the one who will arrange for a temple to be built to honor me [MTY]. He will be [like] a son to me, and I will cause some of his descendants to rule [MTY] over Israel forever [HYP].’
11 Agora pois, meu filho, o Senhor seja comtigo; e prospera, e edifica a casa do Senhor teu Deus, como elle disse de ti.
“So now, my son, I hope/wish that Yahweh will help you, and enable you to be successful in arranging for building the temple of Yahweh, your God, which is what he said that you would do.
12 O Senhor te dê tão sómente prudencia e entendimento, e te instrua ácerca de Israel; e isso para guardar a lei do Senhor teu Deus.
I also hope/wish that he will enable you to be wise and to understand what you need to know, and enable you to obey his laws while you rule over Israel.
13 Então prosperarás, se tiveres cuidado de fazer os estatutos e os juizos, que o Senhor mandou a Moysés ácerca de Israel: esforça-te, e tem bom animo; não temas, nem tenhas pavor
If you carefully obey all the laws and regulations/commands that Yahweh gave to Moses to give to us Israeli people, you will be successful. So be steadfast/strong and courageous. Do not be afraid of anything, and do not become discouraged!
14 Eis que na minha oppressão preparei para a casa do Senhor cem mil talentos de oiro, e um milhão de talentos de prata, e de cobre e de ferro sem peso, porque em abundancia é: tambem madeira e pedras preparei, e tu suppre o que faltar.
“I have tried hard to provide [materials] for [building] the temple of Yahweh. I have provided nearly 4,000 tons of gold, and nearly 40,000 tons of silver. I have also provided a very large amount of iron and bronze; no one has been able to weigh it all. I have also gathered/provided lumber and stone [for the walls of the temple], but you may need to get some more of those things.
15 Tambem tens comtigo officiaes mechanicos em multidão, cortadores e artifices em obra de pedra e madeira; e toda a sorte de sabios em toda a sorte de obra.
There are many men [in Israel] who have good ability to cut big stones for making stone walls, and carpenters, and men who are very skilled at making various kinds of things.
16 Do oiro, da prata, e do cobre, e do ferro não ha numero: levanta-te pois, e faze a obra, e o Senhor seja comtigo.
There are many men who know how to make things from gold and silver and bronze and iron. So now [I say to you], begin the work [of building the temple], and I hope/wish that Yahweh will help/be with you.”
17 E David deu ordem a todos os principes de Israel que ajudassem a Salomão, seu filho, dizendo:
Then David commanded that all the Israeli leaders must assist Solomon. He said to them,
18 Porventura não está comvosco o Senhor vosso Deus, e não vos deu repouso em roda? porque tem entregado na minha mão os moradores da terra; e a terra foi sujeita perante o Senhor e perante o seu povo.
“Yahweh our God is certainly with/helping you [RHQ]. He has allowed you to have peace with all the nearby nations [RHQ]. He has enabled my [army] to conquer [IDM] them, so now Yahweh and my people control them.
19 Disponde pois agora o vosso coração e a vossa alma para buscardes ao Senhor vosso Deus; e levantae-vos, e edificae o sanctuario do Senhor Deus, para que a arca do concerto do Senhor, e os vasos sagrados de Deus se tragam a esta casa, que se ha de edificar ao nome do Senhor.
Now you must obey Yahweh completely. Help Solomon to arrange for building the temple for Yahweh God, in order that you can bring the Sacred Chest that contains the Ten Commandments and the other sacred items that belong to God into the temple that you will build to honor Yahweh.”
