< 2 Crônicas 1 >
1 Salomão, filho de Davi, estava firmemente estabelecido em seu reino, e Javé, seu Deus, estava com ele, e o fez extremamente grande.
Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.
2 Salomão falou a todo Israel, aos capitães de milhares e de centenas, aos juízes e a cada príncipe em todo Israel, aos chefes de família dos pais.
Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ households.
3 Então Salomão, e toda a assembléia com ele, foram para o alto que estava em Gibeon; pois a Tenda da Reunião de Deus estava lá, que o servo de Iavé Moisés tinha feito no deserto.
Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for God’s Tent of Meeting was there, which the LORD’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.
4 Mas Davi havia levado a arca de Deus de Kiriath Jearim ao lugar que Davi havia preparado para ela; pois havia armado uma tenda para ela em Jerusalém.
But David had brought God’s ark up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
5 Moreover o altar de bronze que Bezalel, filho de Uri, o filho de Hur, havia feito estava lá diante do tabernáculo de Javé; e Salomão e a assembléia buscavam lá conselho.
Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the LORD’s tabernacle; and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Salomão foi até o altar de bronze antes de Yahweh, que estava na Tenda da Reunião, e ofereceu mil holocaustos sobre ele.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
7 Naquela noite, Deus apareceu a Salomão e lhe disse: “Peça o que você quer que eu lhe dê”.
That night, God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for what you want me to give you.”
8 Salomão disse a Deus: “Você demonstrou grande bondade amorosa para com David, meu pai, e me fez rei em seu lugar.
Solomon said to God, “You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 Agora, Javé Deus, que sua promessa a Davi, meu pai, seja estabelecida; pois me fez rei sobre um povo como o pó da terra em multidão.
Now, LORD God, let your promise to David my father be established; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
10 Agora, dai-me sabedoria e conhecimento, para que eu possa sair e entrar diante deste povo; pois quem pode julgar este vosso grande povo?”.
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of yours?”
11 Deus disse a Salomão: “Porque isto estava em teu coração, e não pediste riqueza, riqueza, honra ou a vida daqueles que te odeiam, nem ainda pediste vida longa; mas pediste sabedoria e conhecimento para ti mesmo, para que possas julgar meu povo, sobre o qual te fiz rei,
God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, nor yet have you asked for long life; but have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king,
12 portanto, a sabedoria e o conhecimento te é concedido. Eu te darei riquezas, riqueza e honra, como nenhum dos reis que te precederam, e nenhum depois de ti”.
therefore wisdom and knowledge is granted to you. I will give you riches, wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had who have been before you, and none after you will have.”
13 Então Salomão veio do alto que estava em Gibeon, de antes da Tenda da Reunião, para Jerusalém; e ele reinou sobre Israel.
So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, to Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
14 Salomão reuniu carruagens e cavaleiros. Ele tinha mil e quatrocentos carros e doze mil cavaleiros que colocou nas cidades das carruagens, e com o rei em Jerusalém.
Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. He had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
15 O rei fez a prata e o ouro para serem tão comuns como as pedras em Jerusalém, e fez os cedros para serem tão comuns como os sicômoros que estão nas terras baixas.
The king made silver and gold to be as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars to be as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
16 Os cavalos que Salomão tinha foram trazidos do Egito e de Kue. Os mercadores do rei os compraram de Kue.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 Importaram do Egito e depois exportaram uma carruagem por seiscentas peças de prata e um cavalo por cento e cinqüenta. Eles também as exportaram para os reis hititas e para os reis sírios.
They imported from Egypt then exported a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver and a horse for one hundred fifty. They also exported them to the Hittite kings and the Syrian kings.
