1 Crônicas 22
1 E disse Davi: Esta é a casa do SENHOR Deus, e este é 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 Depois mandou Davi que se juntassem os estrangeiros que estavam na terra de Israel, e assinalou deles pedreiros que lavrassem pedras 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 Assim preparou Davi muito ferro para os pregos das portas, e para as junturas; e muito metal sem peso, e madeira de cedro sem conta.
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 Porque os sidônios e tírios haviam trazido a Davi madeira de cedro inumerável.
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 E disse Davi: Salomão meu filho é jovem e tenro, e a casa que se há de edificar a o SENHOR há de ser magnífica por excelência, para nome e honra em todas as terras; agora pois eu lhe prepararei o necessário. E preparou Davi antes de sua morte em grande abundância.
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 Chamou então Davi a Salomão seu filho, e mandou-lhe que edificasse casa a o 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 Davi a Salomão: Filho meu, em meu coração tive o edificar templo ao nome do SENHOR meu Deus.
He said to him, “I wanted [IDM] to build a temple to honor [MTY] Yahweh, my God.
8 Mas veio a mim palavra do SENHOR, dizendo: Tu derramaste muito sangue, e trouxeste grandes guerras: não edificarás casa a meu nome, porque derramaste muito sangue na terra diante de mim:
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 aqui, um filho te nascerá, o qual será homem de repouso, porque eu lhe darei quietude de todos seus inimigos em derredor; por tanto seu nome será Salomão; e eu darei paz e repouso sobre Israel em 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 Ele edificará casa a meu nome, e ele me será a mim por filho, e eu lhe serei por pai; e afirmarei o trono 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, filho meu, seja contigo o SENHOR, e sejas próspero, e edifiques casa a o SENHOR teu Deus, como ele 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 E o SENHOR te dê entendimento e prudência, e ele te dê mandamentos para Israel; e que tu guardes 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 serás próspero, se cuidares de pôr por obra os estatutos e direitos que o SENHOR mandou a Moisés para Israel. Esforça-te pois, e recobra ânimo; não temas, nem desmaies.
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 aqui, eu em minha estreiteza preveni para a casa do SENHOR cem mil talentos de ouro, e um milhar de milhares de talentos de prata: não tem peso o metal nem o ferro, porque é muito. Assim aprontei madeira e pedra, a o qual tu acrescentarás.
“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 Tu tens contigo muitos oficiais, pedreiros, pedreiros, e carpinteiros, e todo homem especialista em toda 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 ouro, da prata, do metal, e do ferro, não há número. Levanta-te, pois, e à obra; que o SENHOR será contigo.
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 Assim mandou Davi a todos os principais de Israel que dessem ajuda a Salomão seu filho, dizendo:
Then David commanded that all the Israeli leaders must assist Solomon. He said to them,
18 Não é convosco o SENHOR vosso Deus, o qual vos há dado quietude de todas as partes? Porque ele entregou em minha mão os moradores da terra, e a terra há sido sujeitada diante do SENHOR, e diante de 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 Ponde, pois, agora vossos corações e vossos ânimos em buscar a o SENHOR vosso Deus; e levantai-vos, e edificai o santuário do Deus o SENHOR, para trazer a arca do pacto do SENHOR, e o santos vasos de Deus, à casa edificada 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.”
