1 Kings 9

1 And it came to pass when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he desired, and was pleased to do,

Kad je Salomon dovršio gradnju Doma Jahvina, kraljevskog dvora i svega što je namislio graditi,

2 That the Lord appeared to him the second time, as he had appeared to him in Gabaon.

javi se Jahve i drugi put Salomonu, kao što mu se bio javio u Gibeonu.

3 And the Lord said to him: I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, which thou hast made before me: I have sanctified this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever, and my eyes and my heart shall be there always.

Jahve mu reče: “Uslišio sam molitvu i prošnju koju si mi uputio. Posvetio sam ovaj Dom, koji si sagradio da u njemu prebiva Ime moje dovijeka; moje će oči i srce biti ovdje svagda.

4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as thy father walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness: and wilt do all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my ordinances and my judgments,

A ti, ako budeš hodio preda mnom kako je hodio tvoj otac David, u nevinosti srca i pravednosti, postupao u svemu kako sam ti zapovjedio i ako budeš držao moje zakone i moje naredbe,

5 I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever, as I promised David thy father, saying: There shall not fail a man of thy race upon the throne of Israel.

ja ću učvrstiti zauvijek tvoje kraljevsko prijestolje nad Izraelom, kako sam obećao tvome ocu Davidu kad sam rekao: 'Nikada ti neće nestati nasljednika na prijestolju Izraelovu.'

6 But if you and your children revolting shall turn away from following me, and will not keep my commandments, and my ceremonies, which I have set before you, but will go and worship strange gods, and adore them:

Ali ako me ostavite, vi i vaši sinovi, ako ne budete držali mojih zapovijedi i zakona koje sam vam dao, ako se okrenete bogovima i budete im služili i klanjali im se,

7 I will take away Israel from the face of the land which I have given them; and the temple which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb, and a byword among all people.

tada ću istrijebiti Izraela iz zemlje koju sam mu dao; ovaj ću Dom, koji sam posvetio svome Imenu, odbaciti od sebe, i Izrael će biti poruga i podsmijeh svim narodima.

8 And this house shall be made an example of: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss, and say: Why hath the Lord done thus to this land, and to this house:

Ovaj je Dom uzvišen, ali svi koji budu uza nj prolazili bit će zaprepašteni; zviždat će i govoriti: 'Zašto je Jahve tako učinio s ovom zemljom i s ovim Domom?'

9 And they shall answer: Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and followed strange gods, and adored them, and worshipped them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.

A reći će im se: 'Jer su ostavili Jahvu, Boga svoga, koji je izveo oce njihove iz Egipta, a priklonili se drugim bogovima, častili ih i služili im, zato je Jahve pustio na njih sva ova zla.'”

10 And when twenty years were ended after Solomon had built the two houses, that is, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,

Poslije dvadeset godina, za kojih je Salomon sagradio obje zgrade, Dom Jahvin i kraljevski dvor,

11 (Hiram the king of Tyre furnishing Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and gold according to all he had need of.) then Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

a Hiram, kralj Tira, dobavljao mu drvo cedrovo i čempresovo i zlata koliko je god želio, dade tada kralj Salomon Hiramu dvadeset gradova u zemlji galilejskoj.

12 And Hiram came out of Tyre, to see the towns which Solomon had given him, and they pleased him not,

Hiram izađe iz Tira da vidi gradove koje mu je Salomon darovao, ali mu se nisu svidjeli.

13 And he said: Are these the cities which thou hast given me, brother? And he called them the land of Chabul, unto this day.

I reče: “Kakvi su to gradovi što si mi ih dao, brate?” I od tada ih zovu “zemlja Kabul” do današnjega dana.

14 And Hiram sent to king Solomon a hundred and twenty talents of gold.

A Hiram bijaše poslao kralju stotinu i dvadeset zlatnih talenata.

15 This is the sum of the expenses, which king Solomon offered to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Mello, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Heser, and Mageddo, and Gazer.

Ovako je bilo s rabotom koju je kralj Salomon digao da sagradi Dom Jahvin, svoj dvor, Milo i zidove Jeruzalema, Hasor, Megido i Gezer.

16 Pharao the king of Egypt came up and took Gazer, and burnt it with fire: and slew the Chanaanite that dwelt in the city, and gave it for a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

Faraon, kralj Egipta, krenu u vojni pohod, osvoji Gezer, popali i poubija Kanaance koji su ondje živjeli, zatim dade grad u miraz svojoj kćeri, ženi Salomonovoj,

17 So Solomon built: Gazer, and Beth-horon the nether,

a Salomon obnovi Gezer, Bet Horon Donji,

18 And Baalath, and Palmira in the land of the wilderness.

Baalat, Tamar u pustinji u zemlji,

19 And all the towns that belonged to himself, and were not walled, he fortified, the cities also of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatsoever he had a mind to build in Jerusalem, and in Libanus, and in all the land of his dominion.

sve gradove-skladišta koje je Salomon imao, gradove za bojna kola i gradove za konjicu, i sve što je Salomon želio sagraditi u Jeruzalemu, na Libanonu i u svim zemljama koje su mu bile podložne.

20 All the people that were left of the Amorrhites, and Hethites, and Pherezites, and Hevites, and Jebusites, that are not of the children of Israel:

Svim preostalim Amorejcima, Hetitima, Perižanima, Hivijcima i Jebusejcima, koji nisu bili Izraelci,

21 Their children, that were left in the land, to wit, such as the children of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary unto this day.

sinovima njihovim koji ostadoše iza njih u zemlji i koje Izraelci nisu zatrli, Salomon nametnu tešku tlaku do današnjega dana.

22 But of the children of Israel Solomon made not any to be bondmen, but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and captains, and overseers of the chariots and horses.

Sinove Izraelove nije Salomon pretvarao u robove, nego su mu oni bili vojnici, dvorani, vojskovođe, tridesetnici, zapovjednici njegovih bojnih kola i konjice.

23 And there were five hundred and fifty chief officers set over all the works of Solomon, and they had people under them, and had charge over the appointed works.

A evo nadzornika koji su upravljali Salomonovim radovima: njih pet stotina i pedeset koji su zapovijedali puku zaposlenu na radovima.

24 And the daughter of Pharao came up out of the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Mello.

Čim je faraonova kći ušla iz Davidova grada u kuću koju joj Salomon bijaše sagradio, tada on podiže Milo.

25 Solomon also offered three times every year holocausts, and victims of peace offerings upon the altar which he had built to the Lord, and he burnt incense before the Lord: and the temple was finished.

Salomon je tri puta u godini prinosio paljenice i pričesnice na žrtveniku koji je podigao Jahvi i palio je kad pred Jahvom. Tako je dovršio Hram.

26 And king Solomon made a fleet in Asiongaber, which is by Ailath on the shore of the Red Sea in the land of Edom.

Kralj Salomon je sagradio brodovlje u Esjon-Geberu, koji je kralj Elata, na obali Crvenoga mora, u zemlji edomskoj.

27 And Hiram sent his servants in the fleet, sailors that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

Hiram je poslao na tim lađama svoje sluge, mornare koji su poznavali more, sa slugama Salomonovim.

28 And they came to Ophir, and they brought from thence to king Solomon four hundred and twenty talents of gold.

Oni otploviše u Ofir, uzeše odande četiri stotine i dvadeset talenata zlata i donesoše ih kralju Salomonu.
