وَجَمَعَ دَاوُدُ كُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْأَسْبَاطِ وَرُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْفِرَقِ ٱلْخَادِمِينَ ٱلْمَلِكَ، وَرُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْأُلُوفِ وَرُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْمِئَاتِ، وَرُؤَسَاءَ كُلِّ ٱلْأَمْوَالِ وَٱلْأَمْلَاكِ ٱلَّتِي لِلْمَلِكِ وَلِبَنِيهِ، مَعَ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ وَٱلْأَبْطَالِ وَكُلِّ جَبَابِرَةِ ٱلْبَأْسِ، إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. ١ 1
And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that served the king by course, and the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, and the rulers over all the substance and cattle of the king and of his sons, with the officers, and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valour, unto Jerusalem.
وَوَقَفَ دَاوُدُ ٱلْمَلِكُ عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: «اِسْمَعُونِي يَا إِخْوَتِي وَشَعْبِي. كَانَ فِي قَلْبِي أَنْ أَبْنِيَ بَيْتَ قَرَارٍ لِتَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلِمَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْ إِلَهِنَا، وَقَدْ هَيَّأْتُ لِلْبِنَاءِ. ٢ 2
Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said: 'Hear me, my brethren, and my people; as for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God; and I had made ready for the building.
وَلَكِنَّ ٱللهَ قَالَ لِي: لَا تَبْنِي بَيْتًا لِٱسْمِي لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَجُلُ حُرُوبٍ وَقَدْ سَفَكْتَ دَمًا. ٣ 3
But God said unto me: Thou shalt not build a house for My name, because thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.
وَقَدِ ٱخْتَارَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ كُلِّ بَيْتِ أَبِي لِأَكُونَ مَلِكًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، لِأَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا ٱخْتَارَ يَهُوذَا رَئِيسًا، وَمِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا بَيْتَ أَبِي، وَمِنْ بَنِي أَبِي سُرَّ بِي لِيُمَلِّكَنِي عَلَى كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٤ 4
Howbeit the LORD, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; for He hath chosen Judah to be prince, and in the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father He took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel;
وَمِنْ كُلِّ بَنِيَّ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ أَعْطَانِي بَنِينَ كَثِيرِينَ، إِنَّماَ ٱخْتَارَ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنِي لِيَجْلِسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ مَمْلَكَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٥ 5
and of all my sons — for the LORD hath given me many sons — He hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
وَقَالَ لِي: إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنَكَ هُوَ يَبْنِي بَيْتِي وَدِيَارِي، لِأَنِّي ٱخْتَرْتُهُ لِي ٱبْنًا، وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُ أَبًا، ٦ 6
And He said unto me: Solomon thy son, he shall build My house and My courts; for I have chosen him to be to Me for a son, and I will be to him for a father.
وَأُثَبِّتُ مَمْلَكَتَهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ إِذَا تَشَدَّدَ لِلْعَمَلِ حَسَبَ وَصَايَايَ وَأَحْكَامِي كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٧ 7
And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be constant to do My commandments and Mine ordinances, as at this day.
وَٱلْآنَ فِي أَعْيُنِ كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَحْفَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَفِي سَمَاعِ إِلَهِنَا، ٱحْفَظُوا وَٱطْلُبُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ لِكَيْ تَرِثُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْجَيِّدَةَ وَتُوَرِّثُوهَا لِأَوْلَادِكُمْ بَعْدَكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ٨ 8
Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the congregation of the LORD, and in the hearing of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God; that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you for ever.
وَأَنْتَ يَا سُلَيْمَانُ ٱبْنِي، ٱعْرِفْ إِلَهَ أَبِيكَ وَٱعْبُدْهُ بِقَلْبٍ كَامِلٍ وَنَفْسٍ رَاغِبَةٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَفْحَصُ جَمِيعَ ٱلْقُلُوبِ، وَيَفْهَمُ كُلَّ تَصَوُّرَاتِ ٱلْأَفْكَارِ. فَإِذَا طَلَبْتَهُ يُوجَدُ مِنْكَ، وَإِذَا تَرَكْتَهُ يَرْفُضُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ٩ 9
And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve Him with a whole heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts; if thou seek Him, He will be found of thee; but if thou forsake Him, He will cast thee off for ever.
اُنْظُرِ ٱلْآنَ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَكَ لِتَبْنِيَ بَيْتًا لِلْمَقْدِسِ، فَتَشَدَّدْ وَٱعْمَلْ». ١٠ 10
Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build a house for the sanctuary; be strong, and do it.'
وَأَعْطَى دَاوُدُ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنَهُ مِثَالَ ٱلرِّوَاقِ وَبُيُوتِهِ وَخَزَائِنِهِ وَعَلَالِيِّهِ وَمَخَادِعِهِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةِ وَبَيْتِ ٱلْغِطَاءِ، ١١ 11
Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch of the temple, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper rooms thereof, and of the inner chambers thereof, and of the place of the ark-cover;
وَمِثَالَ كُلِّ مَا كَانَ عِنْدَهُ بِٱلرُّوحِ لِدِيَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلِجَمِيعِ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ حَوَالَيْهِ، وَلِخَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ وَخَزَائِنِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ، ١٢ 12
and the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, for the courts of the house of the LORD, and for all the chambers round about, for the treasuries of the house of God, and for the treasuries of the hallowed things;
وَلِفِرَقِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، وَلِكُلِّ عَمَلِ خِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلِكُلِّ آنِيَةِ خِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٣ 13
also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD:
فَمِنَ ٱلذَّهَبِ بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِمَا هُوَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، لِكُلِّ آنِيَةِ خِدْمَةٍ فَخِدْمَةٍ، وَلِجَمِيعِ آنِيَةِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ فِضَّةً بِٱلْوَزْنِ، لِكُلِّ آنِيَةِ خِدْمَةٍ فَخِدْمَةٍ. ١٤ 14
of gold by weight for the vessels of gold, for all vessels of every kind of service; of silver for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service;
وَبِٱلْوَزْنِ لِمَنَائِرِ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَسُرُجِهَا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِكُلِّ مَنَارَةٍ فَمَنَارَةٍ وَسُرُجِهَا، وَلِمَنَائِرِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِكُلِّ مَنَارَةٍ وَسُرُجِهَا حَسَبَ خِدْمَةِ مَنَارَةٍ فَمَنَارَةٍ. ١٥ 15
by weight also for the candlesticks of gold, and for the lamps thereof, of gold, by weight for every candlestick and for the lamps thereof; and for the candlesticks of silver, silver by weight for every candlestick and for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick;
وَذَهَبًا بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِمَوَائِدِ خُبْزِ ٱلْوُجُوهِ لِكُلِّ مَائِدَةٍ فَمَائِدَةٍ، وَفِضَّةً لِمَوَائِدِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ. ١٦ 16
and the gold by weight for the tables of showbread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;
وَذَهَبًا خَالِصًا لِلْمَنَاشِلِ وَٱلْمَنَاضِحِ وَٱلْكُؤُوسِ. وَلِأَقْدَاحِ ٱلذَّهَبِ بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِقَدَحٍ فَقَدَحٍ، وَلِأَقْدَاحِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ بِٱلْوَزْنِ لِقَدَحٍ فَقَدَحٍ. ١٧ 17
and the flesh-hooks, and the basins, and the jars, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;
وَلِمَذْبَحِ ٱلْبَخُورِ ذَهَبًا مُصَفًّى بِٱلْوَزْنِ، وَذَهَبًا لِمِثَالِ مَرْكَبَةِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ ٱلْبَاسِطَةِ أَجْنِحَتَهَا ٱلْمُظَلِّلَةِ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٨ 18
and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot, even the cherubim, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
«قَدْ أَفْهَمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ ذَلِكَ بِٱلْكِتَابَةِ بِيَدِهِ عَلَيَّ، أَيْ كُلَّ أَشْغَالِ ٱلْمِثَالِ». ١٩ 19
'All this do I give thee in writing, as the LORD hath made me wise by His hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.'
وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنِهِ: «تَشَدَّدْ وَتَشَجَّعْ وَٱعْمَلْ. لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا تَرْتَعِبْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْإِلَهَ إِلَهِي مَعَكَ. لَا يَخْذُلُكَ وَلَا يَتْرُكُكَ حَتَّى تُكَمِّلَ كُلَّ عَمَلِ خِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٠ 20
And David said to Solomon his son: 'Be strong and of good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed; for the LORD God, even my God, is with thee; He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until all the work for the service of the house of the LORD be finished.
وَهُوَذَا فِرَقُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ لِكُلِّ خِدْمَةِ، بَيْتِ ٱللهِ. وَمَعَكَ فِي كُلِّ عَمَلٍ كُلُّ نَبِيهٍ بِحِكْمَةٍ لِكُلِّ خِدْمَةٍ، وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ تَحْتَ كُلِّ أَوَامِرِكَ». ٢١ 21
And, behold, there are the courses of the priests and the Levites, for all the service of the house of God; and there shall be with thee in all manner of work every willing man that hath skill, for any manner of service; also the captains and all the people will be wholly at thy commandment.'
