2 Kroniška 8
1 Pripetilo se je ob koncu dvajsetih let, v katerih je Salomon zgradil Gospodovo hišo in svojo lastno hišo,
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built Yahweh’s house and his own house,
2 da je mesta, ki jih je Hurám povrnil Salomonu, Salomon pozidal in Izraelovim otrokom velel, da prebivajo tam.
Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3 Salomon je odšel v Hamát Cobo in prevladal zoper njo.
Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 Zgradil je Tadmór v divjini in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je zgradil v Hamátu.
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
5 Zgradil je tudi zgornji Bet Horón in spodnji Bet Horón, utrjeni mesti, z obzidji, velikimi vrati in zapahi,
Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
6 ter Baalát in vsa skladiščna mesta, ki jih je imel Salomon in vsa mesta bojnih vozov in mesta konjenikov in vse, kar je Salomon želel zgraditi v Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu in po vsej deželi svojega gospostva.
and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7 Glede vsega ljudstva, ki je preostalo od Hetejcev, Amoréjcev, Perizéjcev, Hivéjcev in Jebusejcev, ki niso bili iz Izraela,
As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel—
8 temveč od njihovih otrok, ki so za njimi ostali v deželi, katerih Izraelovi otroci niso ugonobili, te je Salomon primoral, da plačujejo davek do tega dne.
of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume—of them Solomon conscripted forced labor to this day.
9 Toda izmed Izraelovih otrok Salomon ni naredil nobenega služabnika za svoje delo, temveč so bili bojevniki, vodje poveljnikov, poveljniki njegovih bojnih vozov in konjeniki.
But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 Ti so bili vodje častnikov kralja Salomona, celó dvesto petdeset, ki so nadzorovali ljudstvo.
These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 Salomon je iz Davidovega mesta privedel gor faraonovo hčer v hišo, ki jo je zgradil zanjo, kajti rekel je: »Moja žena ne bo prebivala v hiši Izraelovega kralja Davida, ker so prostori, kamor je prišla Gospodova skrinja, sveti.«
Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city to the house that he had built for her; for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where Yahweh’s ark has come are holy.”
12 Potem je Salomon daroval žgalne daritve Gospodu, na Gospodovem oltarju, ki ga je zgradil pred preddverjem,
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on Yahweh’s altar which he had built before the porch,
13 celo po določeni meri so vsak dan darovali glede na Mojzesovo zapoved na šabate, na mlaje, na slovesne praznike, trikrat letno, torej na praznik nekvašenega kruha, na praznik tednov in na šotorski praznik.
even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.
14 Glede na red svojega očeta Davida je določil skupine duhovnikov k njihovi službi in Lévijevce k njihovim zadolžitvam, da hvalijo in služijo pred duhovniki, kakor je zahtevala dolžnost vsakega dne. Tudi vratarje po njihovih skupinah pri vsakih velikih vratih, kajti tako je zapovedal David, Božji mož.
He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required, the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate, for David the man of God had so commanded.
15 Niso se odvrnili od kraljeve zapovedi glede katerekoli zadeve duhovnikov in Lévijevcev ali glede zakladnic.
They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
16 Torej vse Salomonovo delo je bilo pripravljeno do dneva [položitve] temelja Gospodove hiše in dokler ta ni bila dokončana. Tako je bila Gospodova hiša popolna.
Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of Yahweh’s house until it was finished. So Yahweh’s house was completed.
17 Potem je Salomon odšel v Ecjón Geber in v Elot pri morski obali v edómski deželi.
Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18 Hurám mu je po roki svojih služabnikov poslal ladje in služabnike, ki so imeli znanje o morju, in ti so s Salomonovimi služabniki odšli v Ofír in od tam vzeli štiristo petdeset talentov zlata ter jih prinesli kralju Salomonu.
Huram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and brought from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
