< 1 Kroniška 28 >

1 David je zbral vse Izraelove prince, prince rodov in poveljnike skupin, ki so služili kralju po skupini in poveljnike nad tisočimi, poveljnike nad stotimi in oskrbnike nad vsem imetjem in posestjo kralja in njegovih sinov, s častniki in z mogočnimi možmi in z vsemi hrabrimi možmi v Jeruzalem.
David summoned to Jerusalem all the leaders of Israel—the leaders of the tribes, the army division commanders in service to the king, the commanders of thousands and the commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and livestock of the king and his sons, along with the court officials, the warriors and all the best fighting men.
2 Potem je kralj David stopil na svoja stopala in rekel: »Poslušajte me, moji bratje in moje ljudstvo: › Kar se mene tiče, sem imel v svojem srcu, da zgradim hišo počitka za skrinjo Gospodove zaveze in za pručko našega Boga in sem pripravil za gradnjo,
King David got to his feet and said, “Listen to me, my brothers and my people! I really wanted to build a house as a resting place for the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, as a footstool for our God. So I made plans to build it.
3 toda Bog mi je rekel: ›Ne boš gradil hiše mojemu imenu, ker si bil bojevnik in si prelival kri.‹
But God told me, ‘You are not to build a house to honor me because you are a man of war who has spilled blood.’
4 Vendar je Gospod, Izraelov Bog, mene izbral pred vso hišo mojega očeta, da bi bil na veke kralj nad Izraelom, kajti Juda je izbral, da bi bil vladar; in od Judove hiše, hišo mojega očeta; in med sinovi mojega očeta sem mu bil všeč, da me je postavil za kralja nad vsem Izraelom,
However, the Lord, the God of Israel, chose me out of all my father's family to be king of Israel forever. For he chose Judah as the leading tribe, and from among the families of Judah he chose my father's family. From among my father's sons he was pleased to chose me as king over the whole of Israel.
5 in izmed vseh mojih sinov (kajti Gospod mi je dal mnogo sinov), je izbral mojega sina Salomona, da sedi na prestolu Gospodovega kraljestva nad Izraelom.
From all my sons (for the Lord gave me many) the Lord has chosen Solomon my child to sit on the throne and to rule over the Lord's kingdom Israel.
6 Rekel mi je: ›Tvoj sin Salomon bo zgradil mojo hišo in moje dvore, kajti izbral sem ga, da bo moj sin in jaz bom njegov oče.
He told me, ‘Your son Solomon is the one who will build my house and my courts, because I have chosen him as my son, and I will be his father.
7 Poleg tega bom na veke utrdil njegovo kraljestvo, če bo stalno izpolnjeval moje zapovedi in moje sodbe, kakor ta dan.‹
I will make sure his kingdom lasts forever if he single-mindedly keeps my commandments and regulations like he does today.
8 Zdaj se torej pred očmi vsega Izraela, Gospodove skupnosti in v občinstvu našega Boga, držite in iščite vse zapovedi Gospoda, svojega Boga, da boste lahko posedli to dobro deželo in jo pustili za dediščino svojim otrokom za seboj na veke.
So now, in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of the Lord, and as God listens, be sure to obey all the commandments of the Lord your God so that you may go on possessing this good land and be able to pass it on as an inheritance to your descendants forever.
9 Ti pa, moj sin Salomon, spoznaj Boga svojega očeta in mu služi s popolnim srcem in z voljnim umom, kajti Gospod preiskuje vsa srca in razume vse miselne zamisli. Če ga boš iskal, ga boš našel, toda če ga zapustiš, te bo on zavrgel na veke.
Solomon my son, get to know the God of your father. Serve him with complete dedication and with a willing mind, for the Lord examines every motivation and understands the intention of every thought. If you look for him, you will find him; but it you abandon him, he will reject you forever.
10 Pazi torej, kajti Gospod te je izbral, da zgradiš hišo za svetišče. Bodi močan in to stôri.‹«
Pay attention now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong, and take action!”
11 Potem je David svojemu sinu Salomonu dal vzorec preddverja, njegovih hiš, njegovih zakladnic, njegovih gornjih sob, njegovih notranjih dvoran in kraja sedeža milosti,
Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the Temple porch, its buildings, storehouses, upper rooms, inner rooms, and the room for the “place of atonement.”
12 vzorec vsega, kar je imel po duhu glede dvorov Gospodove hiše in vseh sob naokoli, zakladnic Božje hiše in zakladnic posvečenih stvari.
He also gave him everything he had planned for the courts of the house of the Lord, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the house of God and of those things that had been dedicated.
13 Tudi za skupine duhovnikov in Lévijevcev in za vse delo službe Gospodove hiše in za vse posode službe v Gospodovi hiši.
In addition he passed on instructions regarding the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the work of service of the house of the Lord, and for all that was used for worship in the house of the Lord.
14 Dal je zlata po teži za stvari iz zlata, za vse priprave vseh vrst službe; tudi srebra za vse priprave iz srebra po teži, za vse priprave vsake vrste službe.
He also laid down how much gold and silver was to be used in making the different objects used in every kind of service,
15 Celo težo za svečnike iz zlata in za njihove svetilke iz zlata po teži za vsak svečnik in za njihove svetilke. In za svečnike iz srebra po teži, tako za svečnik in tudi za njihove svetilke, glede na uporabo vsakega svečnika.
the weight of the gold and silver lampstands and their lamps, depending on the use of each lampstand;
16 Po teži je dal zlata za mize hlebov navzočnosti za vsako mizo in podobno zlata za mize iz srebra.
the weight of gold for each table of showbread, and the weight of silver for the silver tables,
17 Tudi čistega zlata za kavlje za meso, skledice in čaše. Za zlate umivalnike je dal zlata po teži za vsak umivalnik; in podobno srebra, po teži za vsak umivalnik iz srebra;
the weight of pure gold for the forks, basins, and cups; the weight of each gold dish; the weight of each silver bowl;
18 Za kadilni oltar prečiščeno zlato po teži in zlata za vzorec bojnega voza kerubov, ki razprostirata svoje peruti in pokrivata skrinjo Gospodove zaveze.
the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense; and lastly plans for a golden chariot of cherubim that spread their wings, covering the Ark of the Lord's Agreement.
19 »Vse to, « je rekel David, »mi je Gospod dal razumeti v pisanju po svoji roki nad menoj, torej vsa dela tega vzorca.«
“All this is in writing from the hand of the Lord, given to me as instructions—every detail of this plan,” said David.
20 David je rekel svojemu sinu Salomonu: »Bodi močan in odločnega poguma in stôri to. Ne boj se niti ne bodi zaprepaden, kajti Gospod Bog, celó moj Bog, bo s teboj. Ne bo te razočaral niti te ne bo zapustil, dokler ne dokončaš vsega dela za službo Gospodove hiše.
Then David also told Solomon, “Be strong, be brave, and take action! Don't be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you! He will not let you down or leave you. He will make sure all the work for the service of the house of the Lord is finished.
21 Glej, skupine duhovnikov in Lévijevcev, celo oni bodo s teboj za vso službo Božje hiše, in tam bo s teboj za vse vrste rokodelstva vsak voljan vešč mož, za vse vrste del. Tudi princi in vse ljudstvo bo popolno ob tvoji zapovedi.«
The divisions of the priests and the Levites are prepared for all the service of the house of God. People will be willing to use their different skills to help you in all the work—the officials and all the people will do what you tell them.”
