2 Dnevnika 2

1 I naumi Solomun da zida dom imenu Gospodnjemu i dom carski sebi.

Then Solomon gave word to build a house for the Name of Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom.

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 Solomon numbered seventy thousand men to bear burdens, and eighty thousand men to hew in the mountain, —and, to oversee them, three thousand six hundred.

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.

And Solomon sent unto Huram king of Tyre, saying, —As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him a house to dwell in,

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.

lo! I, am about to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God, to hallow unto him—to burn before him sweet incense, and for a continual setting in array, and to offer ascending-sacrifices morning and evening, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the appointed feasts of Yahweh our God, -age-abiding, is this [law] for Israel.

5 A dom koji æu zidati biæe velik, jer je Bog naš veæi od svijeh bogova.

And, the house which I am about to build, [must be] great, —for great is our God, 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.

But who is able to build unto him a house? for, the heavens, even the heaven of heavens, cannot contain him, —who then am, I, that I should build unto him a house, though only to burn incense 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.

Now, therefore, send me a wise man, to work in gold and in silver and in bronze and in iron, and in purple and crimson and blue, and skilful to execute gravings, —with the wise men who are with me, in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom my father David did provide.

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,

And send me—timbers of cedar, cypress and sandal-wood, out of the Lebanon, for, I, know that, thy servants, are skilful, to cut the timbers of Lebanon, —and lo! my servants shall be with thy servants:

9 Da mi priprave mnogo drva, jer dom što æu zidati biæe velik i divan.

yea to prepare me timbers in abundance, —for, the house which I am about to build, [must be] great and most wonderful.

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.

And lo! for the hewers that cut the timbers, have I given wheat as food for thy servants, twenty thousand measures, and barley, twenty thousand measures, and wine, twenty thousand baths, and oil, twenty thousand baths.

11 I odgovori Hiram car Tirski u knjizi koju posla Solomunu: što Gospod ljubi svoj narod zato te postavi carem nad njim.

Then answered Huram king of Tyre, in writing, which he sent unto Solomon, —Because Yahweh hath loved his people, hath he set thee over them as king.

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 Huram said, Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, —who hath given, unto David the king, a wise son, skilled in prudence and understanding, who will build a house for Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom.

13 Šaljem ti dakle èovjeka vješta i razumna, Hirama Aviva,

Now, therefore, have I sent a wise man, skilled in understanding, pertaining to Huram my father:

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.

son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father was a man of Tyre, skilled to work in gold and in silver, in bronze, in iron, in stones and in timber, in purple, in blue and in fine white linen, and in crimson, and to grave any manner of graving, and to devise any manner of device that may be given to him, with thy wise men, and the wise men of my lord David thy father.

15 Neka dakle pšenicu i jeèam, ulje i vino, što je rekao gospodar moj, pošlje slugama svojim.

Now, therefore, the wheat and the barley, the oil and the wine, whereof my lord hath spoken, let him send unto his 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.

and, we, will cut down timbers out of the Lebanon, according to all thy need, and will bring them unto thee in floats, upon the sea to Joppa, —and, thou, shalt fetch them up 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;

So Solomon numbered all the men that were sojourners, who were in the land of Israel, after the numbering, wherewith David his father had numbered them, —and they were found to be—a hundred and fifty-three thousand and 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 made up from among them—seventy thousand, to bear burdens, and eighty thousand to hew in the mountain, —and three thousand and six hundred, as overseers, to keep the people at work.
