1 Crónicas 29
1 El rey David dijo a toda la asamblea: “Salomón, mi hijo, a quien sólo Dios ha elegido, es todavía joven y tierno, y la obra es grande; porque el palacio no es para el hombre, sino para Yahvé Dios.
Then King David said to all the people who had gathered there, “My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen [to be the next king], is young and does not have much experience. This work [of building the temple] is great/important, because this glorious building will not be to [honor] people, but to honor Yahweh our God.
2 He preparado con todas mis fuerzas para la casa de mi Dios el oro para las cosas de oro, la plata para las cosas de plata, el bronce para las cosas de bronce, el hierro para las cosas de hierro, y la madera para las cosas de madera, también piedras de ónice, piedras para engastar, piedras para incrustaciones de diversos colores, toda clase de piedras preciosas, y piedras de mármol en abundancia.
From all the things that I possess, I have provided [what will be needed] to [build] the temple of my God—the gold for the things to be made of gold, the silver for the things to be made of silver, bronze for the things to be made of bronze, iron for the things to be made of iron, wood for the things to be made of wood, and large amounts of onyx and turquoise and other valuable stones of various colors, and marble and all kinds of valuable stones.
3 Además, como he puesto mi afecto en la casa de mi Dios, ya que tengo un tesoro propio de oro y plata, lo doy a la casa de mi Dios, además de todo lo que he preparado para la casa santa
In addition to all these things that I have given for the temple, I am giving treasures of gold and silver, because I very much desire that this holy temple for my God be built.
4 tres mil talentos de oro, del oro de Ofir, y siete mil talentos de plata refinada, con los que se recubrirán las paredes de las casas;
I am giving 110 tons of gold from Ophir and 260 tons of refined silver to cover the walls of the buildings,
5 de oro para las cosas de oro, y de plata para las cosas de plata, y para toda clase de trabajos que se hagan por manos de artesanos. ¿Quién, pues, se ofrece voluntariamente a consagrarse hoy a Yahvé?”
for making the other items of gold and silver, and for the other work to be done by the craftsmen. So now, [I ask you], are there others willing to show [by contributing other gifts for the building of the temple] [EUP] that they have dedicated themselves to Yahweh?”
6 Entonces los príncipes de las casas paternas, los príncipes de las tribus de Israel y los capitanes de millares y de centenas, con los jefes de la obra del rey, ofrecieron voluntariamente;
Then the leaders of the families/clans, the leaders of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of 1,000 soldiers and the commanders of 100 soldiers, and the officials who supervised the work that the king wanted done, gave gifts (willingly/because they wanted to give them).
7 y dieron para el servicio de la casa de Dios de oro cinco mil talentos y diez mil dáricos, de plata diez mil talentos, de bronce dieciocho mil talentos y de hierro cien mil talentos.
For the work at the temple they gave 190 tons and (185 pounds/84 kg.) of gold, 375 tons of silver, 675 tons of bronze, and 3,750 tons of iron.
8 Las personas que encontraron piedras preciosas las entregaron al tesoro de la casa de Yahvé, bajo la mano de Jehiel el gersonita.
And any people who owned valuable stones gave them to be put in the storeroom of the temple. Jehiel, a descendant of Gershon, was appointed to be in charge of them.
9 Entonces el pueblo se alegró, porque ofrecía de buena gana, porque con un corazón perfecto ofrecía de buena gana a Yahvé; y el rey David también se alegró mucho.
The people were happy to see that their leaders wanted to give those things, because [they knew that] their leaders were happy and enthusiastic to give those things to Yahweh. And King David also was very happy.
10 Por eso David bendijo a Yahvé en presencia de toda la asamblea, y dijo: “Bendito seas, Yahvé, el Dios de Israel, nuestro padre, por los siglos de los siglos.
Then, while all the people there were listening, David prayed, saying, “We praise you, Yahweh, the God whom our ancestor Jacob worshiped. We will praise you forever!
11 Tuya es, Yahvé, la grandeza, el poder, la gloria, la victoria y la majestad. Porque todo lo que hay en los cielos y en la tierra es tuyo. Tuyo es el reino, Yahvé, y tú eres exaltado como cabeza de todo.
You alone are great and powerful; only you are truly glorious and majestic and wonderful. [And that is true] because everything in heaven and on the earth is yours. You are the king of all the people in this world; you are the ruler of everything.
12 ¡Las riquezas y el honor provienen de ti, y tú gobiernas sobre todo! En tu mano está el poder y la fuerza. En tu mano está engrandecer y dar fuerza a todos.
Because you are very powerful [DOU], you are able to cause anyone to be great and strong.
13 Por eso, Dios nuestro, te damos gracias y alabamos tu glorioso nombre.
So now, our God, we thank you, and we praise you [MTY] for being very great.
14 Pero, ¿quién soy yo, y qué es mi pueblo, para que podamos ofrecer tan voluntariamente como esto? Porque todo viene de ti, y nosotros te hemos dado de lo tuyo.
But my people and I are not really able to give anything to you, because everything [that we have] comes from you, and what we have given to you are only the things that we have received from you [MTY].
15 Porque somos extranjeros ante vosotros y forasteros, como lo fueron todos nuestros padres. Nuestros días en la tierra son como una sombra, y no queda nada.
[In this land] we are like [MET] foreigners and strangers, like our ancestors were. Our time here on this earth is like [SIM] a shadow [that disappears quickly]; [we know that there is] nothing [that] can enable us [to escape dying].
16 Yahvé, nuestro Dios, todo este depósito que hemos preparado para construirte una casa para tu santo nombre viene de tu mano, y es todo tuyo.
Yahweh our God, we have gathered all these things to use in building your [MTY] temple, but all of it really belongs to you, and you have given it to us [MTY].
17 Sé también, Dios mío, que tú pruebas el corazón y te complaces en la rectitud. En cuanto a mí, en la rectitud de mi corazón he ofrecido voluntariamente todas estas cosas. Ahora he visto con alegría a tu pueblo, que está aquí presente, ofrecerte voluntariamente.
My God, I know that you test us people, and you are pleased if you find out that we do what is right. All these things I have given to you because I wanted to. And now I have seen that your people have also joyfully and generously given things to you.
18 Yahvé, el Dios de Abraham, de Isaac y de Israel, nuestros padres, mantén este deseo para siempre en el pensamiento del corazón de tu pueblo, y prepara su corazón para ti;
Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob worshiped, I desire/hope that your people will continue to desire [to do things like this] forever, and that they will always be loyal to you.
19 y dale a Salomón, mi hijo, un corazón perfecto, para que guarde tus mandamientos, tus testimonios y tus estatutos, y para que haga todas estas cosas, y para que construya el palacio, para el cual he hecho provisión.”
And now, please enable my son Solomon to faithfully and sincerely [DOU] obey your commands and laws and decrees [DOU] and to do everything that is needed to build this beautiful building for which I have provided [all these things].”
20 Entonces David dijo a toda la asamblea: “¡Bendigan ahora a Yahvé, su Dios!” Toda la asamblea bendijo a Yahvé, el Dios de sus padres, e inclinaron sus cabezas y se postraron ante Yahvé y el rey.
Then David said to all the people who were gathered there, “Praise Yahweh our God!” So they all praised Yahweh the God whom their ancestors ([also worshiped/belonged to]). They prostrated themselves on the ground in front of Yahweh and in front of the king.
21 Al día siguiente de ese día sacrificaron a Yahvé y ofrecieron holocaustos a Yahvé, mil toros, mil carneros y mil corderos, con sus libaciones y sacrificios en abundancia para todo Israel,
The next day the people offered sacrifices to Yahweh. They presented many animals to be completely burned [on the altar]: 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, 1,000 male sheep, plus offerings of wine, and many other sacrifices on behalf of all [the people of] Israel.
22 y aquel día comieron y bebieron ante Yahvé con gran alegría. Hicieron rey por segunda vez a Salomón, hijo de David, y lo ungieron ante Yahvé como príncipe, y a Sadoc como sacerdote.
On that day the people were joyful and ate and drank while Yahweh was watching. Then for the second time they declared that Solomon was now the king. While Yahweh was watching, they anointed him [with olive oil] to be the king, and they anointed Zadok to be the Supreme Priest.
23 Entonces Salomón se sentó en el trono de Yahvé como rey en lugar de David, su padre, y prosperó; y todo Israel le obedeció.
So Solomon sat on the throne [because Yahweh wanted him to be] the king to succeed his father David. [During the following years] Solomon prospered, and all the Israeli people obeyed him.
24 Todos los príncipes, los valientes y también todos los hijos del rey David se sometieron al rey Salomón.
King David’s other sons and all the officers and mighty warriors accepted Solomon as their king, and they solemnly promised to obey him.
25 El Señor engrandeció mucho a Salomón a los ojos de todo Israel, y le dio una majestad real como no la había tenido ningún rey antes de él en Israel.
Yahweh caused Solomon to be highly respected by all the Israeli people, and they honored him very much. No king of Israel was honored as much as Solomon was.
26 David, hijo de Isaí, reinó sobre todo Israel.
Jesse’s son David was the king who ruled all of Israel.
27 El tiempo que reinó sobre Israel fue de cuarenta años; reinó siete años en Hebrón, y treinta y tres años en Jerusalén.
He ruled for 40 years: Seven years in Hebron [city] and 33 years in Jerusalem.
28 Murió en buena vejez, lleno de días, de riquezas y de honores; y en su lugar reinó su hijo Salomón.
He became an old man who was very rich and greatly honored by all the people. Then he died, and his son Solomon became the king [of Israel].
29 Los hechos del rey David, primeros y últimos, están escritos en la historia del vidente Samuel, en la historia del profeta Natán y en la historia del vidente Gad,
A record of all the things that King David did while he ruled, from the beginning to the end, was put on scrolls written by the prophets Samuel, Nathan, and Gad.
30 con todo su reinado y su poderío, y los sucesos que lo involucraron a él, a Israel y a todos los reinos de las tierras.
They told about his powerful rule [HEN], and all the things that happened to him and to the people of Israel and in the nearby kingdoms [while he was ruling Israel].
