1 Crónicas 29
1 Después el rey David dijo a toda la congregación: ʼElohim escogió solo a mi hijo Salomón. Él es joven e inmaduro, y la obra es grande, porque la Casa no es para hombre sino para Yavé ʼElohim.
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 Yo hice provisión con todas mis fuerzas para la Casa de mi ʼElohim: oro para las cosas de oro, plata para las de plata, bronce para las de bronce, hierro para las de hierro, madera para las de madera, piedras de ónice y piedras preciosas, negras, de diversos colores, de toda clase de piedras preciosas y 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 Porque tengo mi afecto en la Casa de mi ʼElohim, además de todo lo que alisté, di mi tesoro propio de oro y plata a la Casa de mi ʼElohim para el Santuario:
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 99 toneladas de oro de Ofir y 231 toneladas de plata refinada para cubrir las paredes de los edificios,
I am giving 110 tons of gold from Ophir and 260 tons of refined silver to cover the walls of the buildings,
5 oro para las cosas de oro, plata para las cosas de plata y para toda la obra de los artífices. ¿Quién está dispuesto hoy a consagrar ofrenda voluntaria para Yavé?
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 jefes de las casas paternas, los de las tribus de Israel, de millares y de centenas, y los administradores de la hacienda 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 ʼElohim: 165,08 toneladas de oro, 330 toneladas de plata, 594 toneladas de bronce y 3.300 toneladas de hierro.
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 Todo el que tenía piedras preciosas las entregó en mano de Hehiel gersonita para el tesoro de la Casa de Yavé.
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 El pueblo se alegró porque contribuyó voluntariamente, porque de todo corazón dieron su ofrenda a Yavé. También el rey David 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 David bendijo a Yavé delante de toda la congregación: ¡Bendito Tú, oh Yavé ʼElohim de nuestro antepasado Israel, 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, oh Yavé, es la grandeza, el poder, la gloria, la victoria y el honor! ¡Porque todo cuanto existe en el cielo y en la tierra es tuyo! ¡Tuyo, oh Yavé, es el reino, y Tú te exaltas como soberano 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 De Ti procede la riqueza y la honra. Tú gobiernas todo. En tu mano está el poder y la fortaleza. En tu mano está la facultad de engrandecer y fortalecer a todos.
Because you are very powerful [DOU], you are able to cause anyone to be great and strong.
13 Ahora pues, oh ʼElohim nuestro, nosotros alabamos y loamos tu glorioso Nombre.
So now, our God, we thank you, and we praise you [MTY] for being very great.
14 Porque ¿quién soy yo, y qué es mi pueblo, para que podamos ofrecer voluntariamente semejantes cosas? Pues todo es tuyo, y de lo recibido de tu mano te damos.
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 y advenedizos delante de Ti, lo mismo que todos nuestros antepasados. Nuestro tiempo sobre la tierra es como una sombra y sin esperanza.
[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 Oh Yavé ʼElohim nuestro, todo este grande acopio que preparamos para edificar una Casa a tu santo Nombre, procede de tu mano, porque todo es 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 Yo sé, ʼElohim mío, que Tú escudriñas los corazones. Te complaces en la rectitud. Por eso yo, con rectitud de mi corazón, te ofrecí voluntariamente todo esto. Ahora veo con regocijo que tu pueblo reunido aquí ofreció para ti espontáneamente.
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 Oh Yavé ʼElohim de nuestros antepasados, de Abraham, Isaac e Israel, conserva perpetuamente esta voluntad del corazón de tu pueblo y encamina su corazón hacia 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 Da también un corazón perfecto a mi hijo Salomón para que guarde tus Mandamientos, tus Testimonios y tus Estatutos, haga todas las cosas y te edifique la Casa para la cual yo hice preparativos.
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 Después David dijo a toda la congregación: ¡Bendigan ahora a Yavé su ʼElohim! Y toda la congregación bendijo a Yavé ʼElohim de sus antepasados. Se inclinaron y se postraron delante de Yavé y del 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 Ofrecieron sacrificios a Yavé. El día siguiente ofrecieron a Yavé holocaustos de 1.000 becerros, 1.000 carneros, 1.000 corderos con sus libaciones y muchos sacrificios de parte de 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 Comieron y bebieron delante de Yavé aquel día con gran regocijo. Dieron por segunda vez la investidura del reino a Salomón, hijo de David. Lo ungieron como soberano ante Yavé, y a Sadoc como sumo 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 Salomón se sentó como rey en el trono de Yavé en lugar de su padre David. Fue prosperado, 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 jefes, los valientes y todos los hijos del rey David rindieron homenaje 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 Yavé engrandeció muchísimo a Salomón ante todo Israel. Le confirió una majestad real como no la tuvo nunca algún rey 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 40 años: siete años reinó en Hebrón, y 33 reinó 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, riquezas y honores. Su hijo Salomón reinó en su lugar.
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 el rollo de las crónicas del vidente Samuel, del profeta Natán y 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 lo referente a su reinado, su poder y los acontecimientos que vinieron sobre él, Israel y todos los reinos de aquellas 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].
