1 I naumi Solomun da zida dom imenu Gospodnjemu i dom carski sebi.
And Solomon resolved to build a house to the name of the Lord, and a palace for himself.
2 I odbroji Solomun sedamdeset tisuæa nosilaca i osamdeset tisuæa koji æe tesati u gori, i tri tisuæe i šest stotina nastojnika nad njima.
And he numbered seventy thousand men to carry upon shoulders, and eighty thousand who were hewing stones in the mountains, and three thousand six hundred as their overseers.
3 I posla Solomun ka Hiramu caru Tirskom i poruèi mu: kako si èinio Davidu ocu mojemu i slao mu drva kedrovijeh da zida sebi kuæu gdje æe sjedjeti, uèini tako i meni.
Also, he sent to Hiram, the king of Tyre, saying: “Just as you did for my father David, when you sent him cedar wood, so that he might build a house for himself, in which he then lived,
4 Evo rad sam zidati dom imenu Gospoda Boga svojega da mu ga posvetim da se kadi pred njim kadom mirisnijem i da se postavljaju hljebovi vazda i da se prinose žrtve paljenice jutrom i veèerom, i u subote i na mladine i na praznike Gospoda Boga našega, što treba da biva u Izrailju dovijeka.
do so also for me, so that I may build a house to the name of the Lord my God, so that I may consecrate it for the burning of incense before him, and for the smoke of aromatics, and for the perpetual bread of the presence, and for the holocausts, in morning and in evening, as well as on the Sabbaths and new moons and solemnities of the Lord our God forever, which have been commanded to Israel.
5 A dom koji æu zidati biæe velik, jer je Bog naš veæi od svijeh bogova.
For the house that I desire to build is great. For our God is great, above all gods.
6 A ko bi mogao njemu sazidati dom kad ga nebo i nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu obuhvatiti? i ko sam ja da mu sazidam dom? nego samo da se kadi pred njim.
So then, who will be able prevail, so that he may build a worthy house for him? If heaven and the heavens of heavens cannot contain him, what am I that I would be able to build a house to him? But let it be for this only, so that incense may be burned before him.
7 Tako sada pošlji mi èovjeka vješta, koji umije raditi od zlata i od srebra i od mjedi i od gvožða i od skerleta i od crvca i od porfire, i koji zna rezati, da radi s umjetnicima koje imam kod sebe u Judeji i u Jerusalimu, koje je dobavio David otac moj.
Therefore, send to me a learned man, who knows how to work with gold and silver, with brass and iron, with purple, scarlet, and hyacinth, and who knows how to carve engravings, along with these artisans that I have with me in Judea and Jerusalem, whom my father David has prepared.
8 I pošlji mi drva kedrovijeh i jelovijeh i almugima s Livana, jer znam da sluge tvoje umiju sjeæi drva Livanska; a evo sluge æe moje biti s tvojim slugama,
Then too, send to me cedar wood, and juniper, and pine from Lebanon. For I know that your servants know how to cut timber from Lebanon, and my servants will be with your servants,
9 Da mi priprave mnogo drva, jer dom što æu zidati biæe velik i divan.
so that very much wood may be prepared for me. For the house that I desire to build is exceedingly great and glorious.
10 A evo, poslenicima koji æe sjeæi drvo, slugama tvojim, daæu pšenice ovršene dvadeset tisuæa kora, i dvadeset tisuæa kora jeèma, i vina dvadeset tisuæa vata, i ulja dvadeset tisuæa vata.
In addition, I will give to your servants, the workers who will cut down the trees, for provisions: twenty thousand cor of wheat, and the same number of cor of barley, and twenty thousand measures of wine, as well as twenty thousand good measures of oil.”
11 I odgovori Hiram car Tirski u knjizi koju posla Solomunu: što Gospod ljubi svoj narod zato te postavi carem nad njim.
Then Hiram, the king of Tyre, said, by a letter that had been sent to Solomon: “Because the Lord loved his people, for this reason he appointed you to reign over them.”
12 I govoraše Hiram: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je stvorio nebo i zemlju, što je dao caru Davidu sina mudra, pametna i razumna, koji æe sazidati dom Gospodu i carski dom sebi.
And he added, saying: “Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who gave to king David a son who is wise, and learned, and intelligent as well as prudent, so that he may build a house to the Lord, and a palace for himself.
13 Šaljem ti dakle èovjeka vješta i razumna, Hirama Aviva,
Therefore, I have sent my father Hiram to you; he is a prudent and very knowledgeable man,
14 Sina jedne žene izmeðu kæeri Danovijeh, kojemu je otac bio Tirac; on umije raditi od zlata i od srebra, od mjedi, od gvožða, od kamena i od drveta, od skerleta, od porfire i od tankoga platna i od crvca, i rezati svašta, i izmisliti svašta vješto što mu se da, neka radi s tvojim umjetnicima i s umjetnicima gospodara mojega Davida oca tvojega.
the son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, whose father was a Tyrian, who knows how to work with gold and silver, with brass and iron, and with marble and timber, as well as with purple, and hyacinth, and fine linen, and scarlet. And he knows how to carve every kind of engraving, and how to devise prudently whatever may be necessary to the work, with your artisans and with the artisans of my lord David, your father.
15 Neka dakle pšenicu i jeèam, ulje i vino, što je rekao gospodar moj, pošlje slugama svojim.
Therefore, send the wheat and barley and oil and wine, which you, my lord, have promised, to your own servants.
16 A mi æemo nasjeæi drva na Livanu koliko ti god treba, i spustiæemo ih u splavovima morem u Jopu, a ti ih odande vozi u Jerusalim.
Then we will cut down as much wood from Lebanon as you will need, and we will convey them as rafts by sea to Joppa. Then it will be for you to transfer them to Jerusalem.”
17 Tada Solomun izbroji sve inostrance koji bijahu u zemlji Izrailjevoj poslije brojenja kad ih izbroji David otac njegov, i naðe ih se sto i pedeset i tri tisuæe i šest stotina;
And so Solomon numbered all the new converts who were in the land of Israel, after the numbering that David his father had done, and they were found to be one hundred fifty thousand and three thousand six hundred.
18 I odredi od njih sedamdeset tisuæa koji æe nositi, i osamdeset tisuæa koji æe tesati u planini, a tri tisuæe i šest stotina nastojnika da nastoje da radi narod.
And he appointed seventy thousand of them, who would carry burdens on shoulders, and eighty thousand who would hew stones in the mountains, then three thousand and six hundred as overseers of the work of the people.
