2 Mga Cronica 8

1At nangyari, sa katapusan ng dalawangpung taon na ipinagtayo ni Salomon ng bahay ng Panginoon, at ng kaniyang sariling bahay. 2Na ang mga bayan na ibinigay ni Hiram kay Salomon, mga itinayo ni Salomon, at pinatahan doon ang mga anak ni Israel. 3At si Salomon ay naparoon sa Hamath-soba, at nanaig laban doon. 4At kaniyang itinayo ang Tadmor sa ilang, at lahat na bayan na imbakan na kaniyang itinayo sa Hamath. 5Itinayo rin niya ang Bet-horon sa itaas, at ang Bet-horon sa ibaba, na mga bayang nakukutaan, na may mga kuta, mga pintuang-bayan, at mga halang; 6At ang Baalath at ang lahat na bayan na imbakan na tinatangkilik ni Salomon, at lahat na bayan na ukol sa kaniyang mga karo, at ang mga bayan na ukol sa kaniyang mga mangangabayo, at lahat na ninasa ni Salomon, na itayo para sa kaniyang kasayahan sa Jerusalem, at sa Libano, at sa buong lupain ng kaniyang sakop. 7Tungkol sa buong bayan na naiwan sa mga Hetheo, at mga Amorrheo, at mga Perezeo, at mga Heveo, at mga Jebuseo, na hindi sa Israel; 8Ang kanilang mga anak na naiwan pagkamatay nila sa lupain na hindi nilipol ng mga anak ni Israel, ay sa kanila naglagay si Salomon ng mangaatag na mga alipin, hanggang sa araw na ito. 9Nguni't sa mga anak ni Israel ay walang ginawang alipin si Salomon sa kaniyang gawain; kundi sila'y mga lalaking mangdidigma, at mga pinuno sa kaniyang mga pinunong kawal, at mga pinuno sa kaniyang mga karo, at sa kaniyang mga mangangabayo. 10At ito ang mga pangulong pinuno ng haring Salomon, na dalawang daan at limang pu na nagpupuno sa bayan. 11At iniahon ni Salomon ang anak na babae ni Faraon mula sa bayan ni David hanggang sa bahay na kaniyang itinayo na ukol sa kaniya; sapagka't kaniyang sinabi, Hindi tatahan ang aking asawa sa bahay ni David na hari sa Israel, sapagka't ang mga dako ay banal na pinagpasukan sa kaban ng Panginoon. 12Nang magkagayo'y naghandog si Salomon sa Panginoon ng mga handog na susunugin, sa dambana ng Panginoon, na kaniyang itinayo sa harap ng portiko, 13Sa makatuwid baga'y ayon sa kailangan sa bawa't araw, na naghahandog ayon sa utos ni Moises, sa mga sabbath, at sa mga bagong buwan, at sa mga takdang kapistahan, na makaitlo sa isang taon, sa kapistahan ng tinapay na walang lebadura, at sa kapistahan ng mga sanglinggo, at sa kapistahan ng mga balag. 14At siya'y naghalal, ayon sa utos ni David na kaniyang ama ng mga bahagi ng mga saserdote sa kanilang paglilingkod, at ng mga Levita sa kanilang mga katungkulan upang mangagpuri, at upang mangasiwa sa harap ng mga saserdote, ayon sa kailangan ng katungkulan sa bawa't araw: ang mga tagatanod-pinto naman ayon sa kanilang mga bahagi sa bawa't pintuang-daan: sapagka't gayon ang iniutos ni David na lalake ng Dios. 15At sila'y hindi nagsihiwalay sa utos ng hari sa mga saserdote at mga Levita tungkol sa anomang bagay, o tungkol sa mga kayamanan. 16Ang lahat ngang gawain ni Salomon ay nahanda sa araw ng pagtatayo ng bahay ng Panginoon, at hanggang sa natapos. Sa gayo'y nayari ang bahay ng Panginoon. 17Nang magkagayo'y naparoon si Salomon sa Ezion-geber, at sa Eloth, sa tabi ng dagat sa lupain ng Edom. 18At nagpadala sa kaniya si Hiram ng mga sasakyang dagat sa pamamagitan ng kamay ng kaniyang mga bataan, at mga bataan na bihasa sa dagat; at sila'y nagsiparoon sa Ophir na kasama ng mga bataan ni Salomon, at nagsipagdala mula roon ng apat na raan at limangpung talentong ginto, at dinala sa haring Salomon.

1At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built Yahweh’s house, and his own house, 2the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. 3Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it. 4He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath. 5Also he built Beth Horon the upper, and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars; 6and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion. 7As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel; 8of 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. 9But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen. 10These were the chief officers of king Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people. 11Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David 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.” 12Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on the altar of Yahweh, which he had built before the porch, 13even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times in the year, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tents. 14He 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 so had David the man of God commanded. 15They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures. 16Now all the work of Solomon was prepared to the day of the foundation of Yahweh’s house, and until it was finished. So Yahweh’s house was completed. 17Then went Solomon to Ezion Geber, and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom. 18Huram 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 fetched from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.

1Het geschiedde nu ten einde van twintig jaren, in dewelke Salomo het huis des HEEREN en zijn huis gebouwd had, 2Dat Salomo de steden, welke Huram hem gegeven had, bouwde, en de kinderen Israels aldaar deed wonen. 3Daarna toog Salomo naar Hamath-Zoba, en hij overweldigde het. 4Hij bouwde ook Thadmor in de woestijn, en al de schatsteden, die hij bouwde in Hamath. 5Ook bouwde hij het hoge Beth-horon en het neder Beth-horon, vaste steden met muren, deuren en grendelen; 6Mitsgaders Baalath, en al de schatsteden, die Salomo had, en alle wagensteden, en de steden der ruiteren, en wat de begeerte van Salomo begeerd had te bouwen, in Jeruzalem, en in den Libanon, en in het ganse land zijner heerschappij. 7Aangaande al het volk, dat overgebleven was van de Hethieten, en de Amorieten, en de Ferezieten, en de Hevieten, en de Jebusieten, die niet uit Israel waren; 8Uit hun kinderen, die na hen in het land overgebleven waren, welke de kinderen Israels niet verdaan hadden, die bracht Salomo op uitschot tot op dezen dag. 9Doch uit de kinderen Israels, die Salomo niet maakte tot slaven in zijn werk; (want zij waren krijgslieden, en oversten zijner hoofdlieden, en oversten zijner wagenen en zijner ruiteren); 10Uit dezen dan waren oversten der bestelden, die de koning Salomo had, tweehonderd en vijftig, die over het volk heerschappij hadden. 11Salomo nu deed de dochter van Farao opkomen uit de stad Davids, tot het huis, dat hij voor haar gebouwd had; want hij zeide: Mijn vrouw zal in het huis van David, den koning van Israel, niet wonen, omdat de plaatsen heilig zijn, tot dewelke de ark des HEEREN gekomen is. 12Toen offerde Salomo den HEERE brandofferen op het altaar des HEEREN, hetwelk hij voor het voorhuis gebouwd had; 13Zelfs naar den eis van elken dag, offerende, naar het gebod van Mozes, op de sabbatten, en op de nieuwe maanden, en op de gezette hoogtijden, drie malen in het jaar; op het feest van de ongezuurde broden, en op het feest der weken, en op het feest der loofhutten. 14Hij stelde ook, naar de wijze zijns vaders Davids, de verdelingen der priesteren over hun dienst, en der Levieten over hun wachten, om God te prijzen, en voor de priesteren te dienen, naar den eis van elken dag; en de poortiers in hun verdelingen, aan elke poort; want alzo was het gebod van David, den man Gods. 15En men week niet van des konings gebod aan de priesteren en de Levieten, aangaande alle zaken, en aangaande de schatten. 16Alzo werd al het werk van Salomo bereid tot den dag der grondlegging van het huis des HEEREN, en tot het volbrengen van hetzelve, dat het huis des HEEREN volmaakt werd. 17Toen toog Salomo naar Ezeon-Geber, en naar Eloth, aan den oever der zee, in het land Edom. 18En Huram zond hem, door de hand zijner knechten, schepen, mitsgaders knechten, kenners van de zee; en zij gingen met Salomo's knechten naar Ofir, en zij haalden van daar vierhonderd en vijftig talenten gouds, dewelke zij brachten tot den koning Salomo.
