Вторая книга Паралипоменон 1
1 И укрепися Соломон сын Давидов на царстве своем, и Господь Бог его (бе) с ним и возвеличи его в высоту.
Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and Yahweh his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.
2 И рече Соломон ко всему Израилю, тысящником и сотником, и судиям и всем началником пред Израилем.
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 И иде Соломон и все множество в вышний Гаваон, идеже бе скиния свидения Божия, юже сотвори Моисей раб Божий в пустыни.
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 Yahweh’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.
4 Кивот же Господень принесе Давид от Града Кариафиарима на место, еже уготова ему Давид, яко водрузи ему скинию во Иерусалиме.
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 И олтарь медян, егоже содела Веселеил сын Урии сына Орова, ту бе пред скиниею Господнею и взыска его Соломон и вся церковь.
Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before Yahweh’s tabernacle; and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
6 Вознесе же ту Соломон на олтари медянем пред Господем, иже в скинии свидения, и принесе на нем тысящу всесожжений.
Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before Yahweh, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
7 В ту нощь явися Господь Соломону и рече ему: проси (что хощеши) да дам тебе.
That night, God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for what you want me to give you.”
8 Рече же Соломон к Богу: Ты сотворил еси с Давидом отцем моим милосердие велико и поставил мя еси царя вместо его:
Solomon said to God, “You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 и ныне, Господи Боже, да исполнится слово Твое к Давиду отцу моему, Ты бо мене сотворил царя над людьми многими, якоже прах земный:
Now, Yahweh 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 ныне даждь мне премудрость и разум, да вниду и изыду пред людьми твоими сими, кто бо может судити сих людий Твоих многих?
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 И рече Бог к Соломону: понеже бысть сие в сердцы твоем, и не попросил еси богатства имений, ниже славы, ниже душ противящихся тебе, и дний многих не просил еси, но просил еси себе премудрости и разума, да судити можеши люди Моя, над нимиже поставих тя царя,
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 премудрость и разум даю тебе, богатство же и имения и славу дам тебе, яко не бысть в царех преждебывших тебе подобен тебе, и по тебе такожде не будет.
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 Прииде же Соломон от вышняго Гаваона во Иерусалим пред скинию свидения и царствова над Израилем.
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 И собра Соломон колесницы и конники, и быша ему тысяща и четыреста колесниц и дванадесять тысящ конник: и остави их во градех колесничных, людие же с царем во Иерусалиме.
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 И положи царь сребро и злато во Иерусалиме яко камение, кедры же во Иудеи яко черничие, еже на поли во множестве.
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 Исхождение же коней Соломоновых из Египта ценою купцов царских, иже хождаху и куповаху.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them from Kue.
17 И восхождаху и привождаху из Египта колесницу едину за шесть сот сребреник, и коня за сто и пятьдесят сребреник: такожде и от всех царств Хеттейских и от царей Сирийских рукама их приводима бываху.
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.
