Третья книга Царств 9
1 И бысть егда сконча Соломон зиждяй храм Господень и дом царев и всякое дело свое Соломон, елика восхоте сотворити,
Now when Solomon had finished building the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and had achieved all that he had desired to do,
2 и явися Господь Соломону вторицею, якоже явися ему в Гаваоне,
the LORD appeared to him a second time, as He had appeared to him at Gibeon.
3 и рече к нему Господь: услышах глас молитвы твоея и моления твоего, имже молился еси предо Мною: сотворих ти по всей молитве твоей, и освятих храм сей, егоже создал еси, еже положити имя Мое тамо во веки, и будут очи Мои ту и сердце Мое во вся дни:
And the LORD said to him: “I have heard your prayer and petition before Me. I have consecrated this temple you have built by putting My Name there forever; My eyes and My heart will be there for all time.
4 и ты аще пойдеши предо Мною, якоже ходи Давид отец твой в преподобии сердца и в правоте, и еже творити по всем, яже заповедах ему, и повеления Моя и заповеди Моя сохраниши:
And as for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, with a heart of integrity and uprightness, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,
5 и возставлю престол царствия твоего во Израили во веки, якоже глаголах к Давиду отцу твоему, глаголя: не оскудеет ти муж властелин во Израили:
then I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised your father David when I said, ‘You will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’
6 аще же отвращающеся отвратитеся вы и чада ваша от Мене и не сохраните заповедий Моих и повелений Моих, яже даде Моисей пред вами, и пойдете и поработаете богом иным и поклонитеся им:
But if indeed you or your sons turn away from following Me and do not keep the commandments and statutes I have set before you, and if you go off to serve and worship other gods,
7 и изрину Израиля из земли, юже дах им, и храм сей, егоже освятих имени Моему, отвергу от лица Моего: и будет Израиль в погубление и во глаголание всем людем:
then I will cut off Israel from the land that I have given them, and I will banish from My presence this temple I have sanctified for My Name. Then Israel will become an object of scorn and ridicule among all peoples.
8 и дом сей будет высокий, всяк преходяй сквозе его ужаснется, и возсвищет и речет: чесо ради сотвори Господь тако земли сей и храму сему?
And when this temple has become a heap of rubble, all who pass by it will be appalled and will hiss and say, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’
9 И рекут: понеже оставиша Господа Бога своего, иже изведе отцы их из Египта, из дому работы, и прияша боги чуждыя, и поклонишася им, и поработаша им, сего ради наведе на ня Господь зло сие.
And others will answer, ‘Because they have forsaken the LORD their God who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them—because of this, the LORD has brought all this disaster upon them.’”
10 И бысть по двадесяти летех, в няже созда Соломон два домы, храм Господень и дом царев,
Now at the end of the twenty years during which Solomon built these two houses, the house of the LORD and the royal palace,
11 Хирам царь Тирский помогаше Соломону древы кедрскими и древы певговыми и златом и всем хотением его: тогда даде Соломон Хираму двадесять градов в земли Галилейстей.
King Solomon gave twenty towns in the land of Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, who had supplied him with cedar and cypress logs and gold for his every desire.
12 И изыде Хирам из Тира и пойде в Галилею видети грады, яже даде ему Соломон: и не быша ему угодни,
So Hiram went out from Tyre to inspect the towns that Solomon had given him, but he was not pleased with them.
13 и рече: что гради сии, яже дал ми еси, брате? И нарече я предел (Хавуль), до днешняго дне.
“What are these towns you have given me, my brother?” asked Hiram, and he called them the Land of Cabul, as they are called to this day.
14 И принесе Хирам Соломону сто и двадесять талант злата.
And Hiram had sent the king 120 talents of gold.
15 Сие же есть число даяния еже принесе царь Соломон, да созиждет храм Господень и дом царев, и Мелон и стену Иерусалимску и Краеградие еже оградити стену града Давидова, и Асур и Магедо и Газер.
This is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon imposed to build the house of the LORD, his own palace, the supporting terraces, and the wall of Jerusalem, as well as Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 Фараон царь Египетский взыде и взя Газер и сожже и огнем, и Ханаана живущаго во граде том погуби: и даде его в дар дщери своей, жене Соломони.
Pharaoh king of Egypt had attacked and captured Gezer. He had set it on fire, killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.
17 И согради Соломон Газер и Вефорон нижний,
So Solomon rebuilt Gezer, Lower Beth-horon,
18 и Валааф и Фамор в пустыни.
Baalath, and Tamar in the Wilderness of Judah,
19 И вся грады крепкия, иже быша Соломону, и вся грады, идеже бяху колесницы, и вся грады, идеже бяху конницы его, и все еже бысть угодно царю Соломону, созда во Иерусалиме, и в Ливане и во всей земли царства своего.
as well as all the store cities that Solomon had for his chariots and horses —whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout the land of his dominion.
20 Всех людий оставшихся от Аморреа и Хеттеа, и Ферезеа и Хананеа, и Евеа и Иевусеа и Гергесеа, не сущих от сынов Израилевых,
As for all the people who remained of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites (the people who were not Israelites)—
21 сынов их оставшихся по них на земли, ихже не возмогоша сынове Израилевы потребити их, царь Соломон поработи их даяти дань даже до дне сего:
their descendants who remained in the land, those whom the Israelites were unable to devote to destruction —Solomon conscripted these people to be forced laborers, as they are to this day.
22 от сынов же Израилевых не даде в работу Соломон, яко тии бяху мужие храбрии, и отроцы его, и князи его, и тристаты его, и воеводы колесниц его, и конницы его.
But Solomon did not consign any of the Israelites to slavery, because they were his men of war, his servants, his officers, his captains, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
23 И бяху старейшины приставленным над делы царя Соломона, пять сот пятьдесят повелевающии людем делающым дело.
They were also the chief officers over Solomon’s projects: 550 supervisors over the people who did the work.
24 Дщерь же фараона прейде из града Давидова в дом свой, егоже созда ей Соломон, тогда созда Мелон.
As soon as Pharaoh’s daughter had come up from the City of David to the palace that Solomon had built for her, he built the supporting terraces.
25 И приношаше Соломон трижды в год всесожжения и мирныя жертвы на олтарь, егоже созижде Господу, и кадяше фимиам пред Господем: и соверши храм.
Three times a year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar he had built for the LORD, burning incense with them before the LORD. So he completed the temple.
26 И сотвори царь Соломон корабль в Гасионе Гаверстем, иже при Елафе, при устии моря Последняго, в земли Едомстей.
King Solomon also assembled a fleet of ships at Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth in Edom, on the shore of the Red Sea.
27 И посла Хирам на корабли от отрок своих мужы корабелники управляти ведущих море со отроки Соломони:
And Hiram sent his servants, men who knew the sea, to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s servants.
28 и приидоша в Софир, и взяша оттуду злата четыре ста и двадесять талант и принесоша царю Соломону.
They sailed to Ophir and imported gold from there—420 talents —and delivered it to Solomon.
