| 1 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ οἶκος κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τοῦτο τὸ θυσιαστήριον εἰς ὁλοκαύτωσιν τῷ Ισραηλ 2 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ συναγαγεῖν πάντας τοὺς προσηλύτους ἐν γῇ Ισραηλ καὶ κατέστησεν λατόμους λατομῆσαι λίθους ξυστοὺς τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι οἶκον τῷ θεῷ 3 καὶ σίδηρον πολὺν εἰς τοὺς ἥλους τῶν θυρωμάτων καὶ τῶν πυλῶν καὶ τοὺς στροφεῖς ἡτοίμασεν Δαυιδ καὶ χαλκὸν εἰς πλῆθος οὐκ ἦν σταθμός 4 καὶ ξύλα κέδρινα οὐκ ἦν ἀριθμός ὅτι ἐφέροσαν οἱ Σιδώνιοι καὶ οἱ Τύριοι ξύλα κέδρινα εἰς πλῆθος τῷ Δαυιδ 5 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ Σαλωμων ὁ υἱός μου παιδάριον ἁπαλόν καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τῷ κυρίῳ εἰς μεγαλωσύνην ἄνω εἰς ὄνομα καὶ εἰς δόξαν εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἑτοιμάσω αὐτῷ καὶ ἡτοίμασεν Δαυιδ εἰς πλῆθος ἔμπροσθεν τῆς τελευτῆς αὐτοῦ | 1 Here, said David, is the Lord’s home; here Israel shall find an altar for its burnt-sacrifices. 2 And thereupon he held a muster of all the men of alien birth that dwelt in Israel, and chose out from these masons that should cut and dress the stone for building God’s house. 3 It was David that procured iron in abundance for door-nail and flange and socket, a weight of bronze, too, beyond all reckoning; 4 nor was there any counting the cedar planks that were provided for David by the men of Sidon and Tyre. 5 My son Solomon, thought he, is but a boy and still untried; and this house I mean to have built for the Lord must be such that all the world tells of its renown; I must store up for him what he needs. So it was that before his death he had all the preparations made for it. | 1 Dixitque David: Hæc est domus Dei, et hoc altare in holocaustum Israëli. 2 Et præcepit ut congregarentur omnes proselyti de terra Israël, et constituit ex eis latomos ad cædendos lapides et poliendos, ut ædificaretur domus Dei. 3 Ferrum quoque plurimum ad clavos januarum, et ad commissuras atque juncturas, præparavit David: et æris pondus innumerabile. 4 Ligna quoque cedrina non poterant æstimari, quæ Sidonii et Tyrii deportaverant ad David. 5 Et dixit David: Solomon filius meus puer parvulus est et delicatus: domus autem, quam ædificari volo Domino, talis esse debet ut in cunctis regionibus nominetur: præparabo ergo ei necessaria. Et ob hanc causam ante mortem suam omnes præparavit impensas. |
| 6 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Σαλωμων τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ Ισραηλ 7 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ Σαλωμων τέκνον ἐμοὶ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ ψυχῇ τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου θεοῦ 8 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐ{P'} ἐμοὶ λόγος κυρίου λέγων αἷμα εἰς πλῆθος ἐξέχεας καὶ πολέμους μεγάλους ἐποίησας οὐκ οἰκοδομήσεις οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματί μου ὅτι αἵματα πολλὰ ἐξέχεας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐναντίον μου 9 ἰδοὺ υἱὸς τίκτεταί σοι οὗτος ἔσται ἀνὴρ ἀναπαύσεως καὶ ἀναπαύσω αὐτὸν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐχθρῶν κυκλόθεν ὅτι Σαλωμων ὄνομα αὐτῷ καὶ εἰρήνην καὶ ἡσυχίαν δώσω ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ 10 οὗτος οἰκοδομήσει οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματί μου καὶ οὗτος ἔσται μοι εἰς υἱὸν κἀγὼ αὐτῷ εἰς πατέρα καὶ ἀνορθώσω θρόνον βασιλείας αὐτοῦ ἐν Ισραηλ ἕως αἰῶνος | 6 Then he summoned the young prince and laid a charge upon him, bidding him build a house for the Lord God of Israel. 7 My son, he told him, it was my thought to have built such a house myself, to be a shrine for the name of the Lord my God; but this message came to me from the Lord: 8 Blood thou hast spilt in rivers and wars thou hast waged a many; not for thee to build me a house, that comest before me with so much blood on thy hands. 9 Thou shalt have a son born to thee whose reign shall be all peace; on every side I will secure his frontiers from attack, and he will be well named Solomon, the Peaceful, such untroubled ease shall Israel enjoy during his reign. 10 He it is that shall build a house to be the shrine of my name; I shall find in him a son, and he in me a father, and I will maintain his dynasty on the throne of Israel for all time. | 6 Vocavitque Salomonem filium suum, et præcepit ei ut ædificaret domum Domino Deo Israël. 7 Dixitque David ad Salomonem: Fili mi, voluntatis meæ fuit ut ædificarem domum nomini Domini Dei mei: 8 sed factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens: Multum sanguinem effudisti, et plurima bella bellasti: non poteris ædificare domum nomini meo, tanto effuso sanguine coram me: 9 filius qui nascetur tibi, erit vir quietissimus: faciam enim eum requiescere ab omnibus inimicis suis per circuitum: et ob hanc causam Pacificus vocabitur: et pacem et otium dabo in Israël cunctis diebus ejus. 10 Ipse ædificabit domum nomini meo, et ipse erit mihi in filium, et ego ero illi in patrem: firmaboque solium regni ejus super Israël in æternum. |
| 11 καὶ νῦν υἱέ μου ἔσται μετὰ σοῦ κύριος καὶ εὐοδώσει καὶ οἰκοδομήσεις οἶκον τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ σου ὡς ἐλάλησεν περὶ σοῦ 12 ἀλ{L'} ἢ δῴη σοι σοφίαν καὶ σύνεσιν κύριος καὶ κατισχύσαι σε ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ τοῦ φυλάσσεσθαι καὶ τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸν νόμον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου 13 τότε εὐοδώσει ἐὰν φυλάξῃς τοῦ ποιεῖν τὰ προστάγματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ἃ ἐνετείλατο κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἀνδρίζου καὶ ἴσχυε μὴ φοβοῦ μηδὲ πτοηθῇς 14 καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ κατὰ τὴν πτωχείαν μου ἡτοίμασα εἰς οἶκον κυρίου χρυσίου ταλάντων ἑκατὸν χιλιάδας καὶ ἀργυρίου ταλάντων χιλίας χιλιάδας καὶ χαλκὸν καὶ σίδηρον οὗ οὐκ ἔστιν σταθμός ὅτι εἰς πλῆθός ἐστιν καὶ ξύλα καὶ λίθους ἡτοίμασα καὶ πρὸς ταῦτα πρόσθες 15 καὶ μετὰ σοῦ εἰς πλῆθος ποιούντων ἔργα τεχνῖται καὶ οἰκοδόμοι λίθων καὶ τέκτονες ξύλων καὶ πᾶς σοφὸς ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ 16 ἐν χρυσίῳ ἐν ἀργυρίῳ ἐν χαλκῷ καὶ ἐν σιδήρῳ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός ἀνάστηθι καὶ ποίει καὶ κύριος μετὰ σοῦ | 11 Courage, then, my son; the Lord be with thee, and prosper thou ever. Build a house for the Lord thy God, as he himself has promised; 12 and may he grant thee prudence and discernment, in ruling thy people of Israel and in holding fast by the law of the Lord thy God. 13 Do thou but keep decree and award of his, handed on through Moses to Israel, and all shall be well with thee; play the man, and keep thy courage high, never doubting, never daunted. 14 My hard-earned store thou hast, to build the house with; a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a million talents of silver, bronze and iron of what weight I know not, past all reckoning; wood and stone too I have made ready against all thy needs.[1] 15 Many workmen thou hast in thy service, stone-cutters and stone-masons and carpenters, and masters of every craft to work for thee, 16 fashioning the gold and silver, the bronze and iron, that passes all reckoning. To the task, then! The Lord will be ever at thy side. | 11 Nunc ergo fili mi, sit Dominus tecum, et prosperare, et ædifica domum Domino Deo tuo sicut locutus est de te. 12 Det quoque Dominus prudentiam et sensum ut regere possis Israël, et custodire legem Domini Dei tui. 13 Tunc enim proficere poteris, si custodieris mandata et judicia quæ præcepit Dominus Moysi ut doceret Israël. Confortare, et viriliter age: ne timeas, neque paveas. 14 Ecce ego in paupertate mea præparavi impensas domus Domini, auri talenta centum millia, et argenti mille millia talentorum: æris vero et ferri non est pondus, vincitur enim numerus magnitudine; ligna et lapides præparavi ad universa impendia. 15 Habes quoque plurimos artifices, latomos, et cæmentarios, artificesque lignorum, et omnium artium ad faciendum opus prudentissimos, 16 in auro et argento et ære et ferro, cujus non est numerus. Surge igitur et fac, et erit Dominus tecum. |
| 17 καὶ ἐνετείλατο Δαυιδ τοῖς πᾶσιν ἄρχουσιν Ισραηλ ἀντιλαβέσθαι τῷ Σαλωμων υἱῷ αὐτοῦ 18 οὐχὶ κύριος με{Q'} ὑμῶν καὶ ἀνέπαυσεν ὑμᾶς κυκλόθεν ὅτι ἔδωκεν ἐν χερσὶν τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν καὶ ὑπετάγη ἡ γῆ ἐναντίον κυρίου καὶ ἐναντίον λαοῦ αὐτοῦ 19 νῦν δότε καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ ψυχὰς ὑμῶν τοῦ ζητῆσαι τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ ὑμῶν καὶ ἐγέρθητε καὶ οἰκοδομήσατε ἁγίασμα κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ ὑμῶν τοῦ εἰσενέγκαι τὴν κιβωτὸν διαθήκης κυρίου καὶ σκεύη τὰ ἅγια τοῦ θεοῦ εἰς οἶκον τὸν οἰκοδομούμενον τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου | 17 On all the rulers of Israel David laid the same charge, bidding them lend Solomon their aid. 18 You can see for yourselves, he told them, that the Lord your God is with you; has he not secured all your frontiers from attack, and given you the mastery over your enemies, so that the whole land now gives ready obedience to the Lord and to the Lord’s people? 19 Give yourselves, then, heart and soul, to the following of the Lord your God; bestir yourselves, and build the Lord God a sanctuary, a house dedicated to his name, where the ark that bears witness of the Lord’s covenant, and all the holy things consecrated to him, may find a resting-place. | 17 Præcepit quoque David cunctis principibus Israël ut adjuvarent Salomonem filium suum: 18 Cernitis, inquiens, quod Dominus Deus vester vobiscum sit, et dederit vobis requiem per circuitum, et tradiderit omnes inimicos vestros in manus vestras, et subjecta sit terra coram Domino, et coram populo ejus. 19 Præbete igitur corda vestra et animas vestras, ut quæratis Dominum Deum vestrum: et consurgite, et ædificate sanctuarium Domino Deo, ut introducatur arca fœderis Domini, et vasa Domino consecrata, in domum quæ ædificatur nomini Domini. |
