< 1 Reis 9 >

1 Succedeu pois que, acabando Salomão de edificar a casa do Senhor, e a casa do rei, e todo o desejo de Salomão, que lhe veiu á vontade fazer,
After Solomon’s [workers] had finished building the temple and his palace and everything else that Solomon wanted them to build,
2 O Senhor tornou a apparecer a Salomão; como lhe tinha apparecido em Gibeon.
Yahweh appeared to him [in a dream] a second time, like he had appeared to him at [the city of] Gibeon.
3 E o Senhor lhe disse: Ouvi a tua oração, e a tua supplica que supplicando fizeste perante mim; sanctifiquei a casa que edificaste, afim de pôr ali o meu nome para sempre: e os meus olhos e o meu coração estarão ali todos os dias.
Yahweh said to him, “I heard what you prayed and what you pleaded for me to do. I have set apart/dedicated this temple which your [workers] have built to be the place where people will worship me forever. I will always watch over it and protect it.
4 E se tu andares perante mim como andou David teu pae, com inteireza de coração e com sinceridade, para fazeres segundo tudo o que te mandei, e guardares os meus estatutos e os meus juizos,
“And as for you, if you conduct your life as I want you to, like your father David did, and if you very sincerely obey all the statutes and laws that I have commanded you to obey,
5 Então confirmarei o throno de teu reino sobre Israel para sempre: como fallei ácerca de teu pae David, dizendo: Não te faltará varão sobre o throno d'Israel:
I will do what I promised your father that I would do: I promised him that Israel would always be ruled by his descendants.
6 Porém se vós e vossos filhos de qualquer maneira vos apartardes de apoz mim, e não guardardes os meus mandamentos, e os meus estatutos, que vos tenho proposto, mas fôrdes, e servirdes a outros deuses, e vos curvardes perante elles,
“But if you or your descendants turn away from me and disobey the commands and decrees that I have given to you, and if you start to worship other gods,
7 Então destruirei a Israel da terra que lhes dei; e a esta casa, que sanctifiquei a meu nome, lançarei longe da minha presença: e Israel será por ditado e mote, entre todos os povos.
I will remove my Israeli people from the land that I have given to them. I will also abandon this temple that I have set apart/dedicated to be the place where people should worship me. Then people everywhere will despise [the people of] Israel and make fun of them.
8 E esta casa será tão exaltada, que todo aquelle que por ella passar pasmará, e assobiará, e dirá: Porque fez o Senhor assim a esta terra e a esta casa
This temple will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by will be astonished [when they see it], and they will be shocked and say, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this temple?’
9 E dirão: Porque deixaram ao Senhor seu Deus, que tirou da terra do Egypto a seus paes, e se apegaram a deuses alheios, e se encurvaram perante elles, e os serviram: por isso trouxe o Senhor sobre elles todo este mal.
And other people will reply, ‘It happened because the Israeli people abandoned Yahweh their God, the one who brought their ancestors out of Egypt. They started to accept and worship other gods. And that is why Yahweh has caused them to experience all these disasters.’”
10 E succedeu, ao fim de vinte annos, que Salomão edificara as duas casas; a casa do Senhor e a casa do rei
Solomon’s [workers] labored for 20 years to build the temple and the palace.
11 (Para o que Hirão, rei de Tyro, trouxera a Salomão madeira de cedro e de faia, e oiro, segundo todo o seu desejo): então deu o rei Salomão a Hirão vinte cidades na terra de Galiléa.
Hiram, the king of Tyre had [arranged for his workers to] give Solomon all the cedar and pine [logs] and all the gold that he needed [for this work]. After it was all finished, King Solomon gave to Hiram 20 cities in the Galilee region.
12 E saiu Hirão de Tyro a ver as cidades que Salomão lhe déra, porém não foram boas aos seus olhos.
But when Hiram went from Tyre [to Galilee] to see the cities that Solomon had given to him, he was not pleased with them.
13 Pelo que disse: Que cidades são estas que me déste, irmão meu? E chamaram-n'as: Terra de Cabuli, até hoje.
He said to Solomon, “My friend, those cities that you gave me are worthless!” So, that area is still called ‘Worthless’.
14 E enviara Hirão ao rei cento e vinte talentos de oiro.
Hiram paid Solomon only five tons of gold [for those cities].
15 E esta é a causa do tributo que impoz o rei Salomão, para edificar a casa do Senhor e a sua casa e Millo, e o muro de Jerusalem, como tambem a Hasor, e a Megiddo, e a Gezer.
This is a record of the work that King Solomon forced men to do. He forced them to build the temple and his palace and the terraces/landfills [on the east side of the city], and the wall around Jerusalem, and [to rebuild the cities of] Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer.
16 Porque Pharaó, rei do Egypto, subiu e tomou a Gezer, e a queimou a fogo, e matou os cananeos que moravam na cidade, e a deu em dote a sua filha, mulher de Salomão.
[The reason they needed to rebuild Gezer was that the army of] the king of Egypt had attacked Gezer and captured it. Then they had burned [the houses in] the city and killed all the people of the Canaan people-group who lived there. The king of Egypt gave that city to his daughter as a gift when she married Solomon.
17 Assim edificou Salomão a Gezer, e Beth-horon, a baixa,
So Solomon’s workers also rebuilt Gezer, and they also rebuilt Lower Beth-Horon [city].
18 E a Baalath, e a Tadmor, no deserto d'aquella terra,
They also rebuilt Baalath and Tamar [towns] in the desert in [the southern part of] Judah.
19 E a todas as cidades das munições que Salomão tinha, e as cidades dos carros, e as cidades dos cavalleiros, e o que o desejo de Salomão quiz edificar em Jerusalem, e no Libano, e em toda a terra do seu dominio.
They also built cities where they kept the supplies for Solomon, the places where his horses and chariots were kept. They also built everything else that Solomon wanted them to build, in Jerusalem and in Lebanon, and in other places in the area over which he ruled.
20 Quanto a todo o povo que restou dos amorrheos, hetheos, pherezeos, heveos, e jebuseos, e que não eram dos filhos de Israel,
There were many people who belonged to the Amor people-group, the Heth people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group who were not killed when the Israelis captured their land.
21 A seus filhos, que restaram depois d'elles na terra, os quaes os filhos de Israel não poderam destruir totalmente, Salomão os reduziu a tributo servil, até hoje.
[Their descendants still lived in Israel]. It was those people whom Solomon forced to become his slaves [to build all those places], and they are still slaves.
22 Porém dos filhos de Israel não fez Salomão servo algum: porém eram homens de guerra, e seus creados, e seus principes, e seus capitães, e chefes dos seus carros e dos seus cavalleiros.
But Solomon did not force any Israeli people to become slaves. Some Israelis became soldiers and army officers and commanders and drivers of his chariots and soldiers who rode on horses.
23 Estes eram os chefes dos officiaes que estavam sobre a obra de Salomão, quinhentos e cincoenta, que davam ordens ao povo que trabalhava na obra.
There were 550 officials who supervised the slaves who worked [to build all those places].
24 Subiu porém a filha de Pharaó da cidade de David á sua casa, que Salomão lhe edificara; então edificou a Millo.
After [Solomon’s wife, who was] the daughter of the king of Egypt, moved from [the place outside Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’ to the palace that Solomon’s workers built for her, Solomon [told his workers to] fill in the slopes on the east side of the city.
25 E offerecia Salomão tres vezes cada anno holocaustos e sacrificios pacificos sobre o altar que edificaram ao Senhor, e queimava incenso sobre o que estava perante o Senhor: e assim acabou a casa.
Three times each year Solomon [brought to the temple] offerings that were completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to restore fellowship with Yahweh. He also brought incense to be burned in the presence of Yahweh. And so his men finished building the temple.
26 Tambem o rei Salomão fez náos em Eseon-geber, que está junto a Eloth, á praia do mar de Suph, na terra de Edom.
King Solomon’s [workers] also built a fleet of ships at Ezion-Geber [city], which is near Elath [city], on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba, in the land belonging to the Edom people-group.
27 E mandou Hirão com aquellas náos a seus servos, marinheiros, que sabiam do mar, com os servos de Salomão.
[King] Hiram sent some very expert sailors to work on the ships with Solomon’s workers.
28 E vieram a Ophir, e tomaram de lá quatrocentos e vinte talentos de oiro, e o trouxeram ao rei Salomão.
They sailed to [the] Ophir [region] and brought back to Solomon about 16 tons of gold.
