2 Chronicles 8
1 And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of Yahweh, and his own house,
所罗门建造耶和华殿和王宫，二十年才完毕了。
2 that, the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, —and caused, the sons of Israel, to dwell there.
以后所罗门重新修筑希兰送给他的那些城邑，使以色列人住在那里。
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, —and prevailed against it;
所罗门往哈马琐巴去，攻取了那地方。
4 and he built Tadmor, in the wilderness, —and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath;
所罗门建造旷野里的达莫，又建造哈马所有的积货城，
5 and he built Beth-horon, the upper, and Beth-horon, the nether, —fortified cities, with walls, and doors and bars;
又建造上伯·和 、下伯·和 作为保障，都有墙，有门，有闩；
6 and Baalath, and all the store cities which pertained to Solomon, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, —and every delight of Solomon which he delighted to build in Jerusalem, and in the Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
又建造巴拉和所有的积货城，并屯车辆马兵的城，与耶路撒冷、黎巴嫩，以及自己治理的全国中所愿意建造的。
7 As for all the people that were left, of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not, of Israel; —
至于国中所剩下不属以色列人的赫人、亚摩利人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人，
8 of their sons who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel had not utterly destroyed, Solomon enrolled them as tributary—unto this day.
就是以色列人未曾灭绝的，所罗门挑取他们的后裔作服苦的奴仆，直到今日。
9 But, of the sons of Israel, were there none whom he delivered up as bondmen unto his work, —for, they, were men of war, and his captains and his heroes, and captains over his chariots, and his horsemen.
惟有以色列人，所罗门不使他们当奴仆做工，乃是作他的战士、军长的统领、车兵长、马兵长。
10 These, moreover, were the chiefs of his officers whom King Solomon had, two hundred and fifty, —who wielded dominion over the people.
所罗门王有二百五十督工的，监管工人。
11 And, the daughter of Pharaoh, Solomon brought up, out of the city of David, unto the house which he had built for her, —for he said, A wife of mine must not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for holy are those places whereinto the ark of Yahweh hath come.
所罗门将法老的女儿带出大卫城，上到为她建造的宫里；因所罗门说：“耶和华约柜所到之处都为圣地，所以我的妻不可住在以色列王大卫的宫里。”
12 Then, Solomon offered up ascending-sacrifices, unto Yahweh, —upon the altar of Yahweh, which he had built before the porch:
所罗门在耶和华的坛上，就是在廊子前他所筑的坛上，与耶和华献燔祭；
13 even according to the duty of each a day upon [its own] day, offering up according to the commandment of Moses, for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed feasts, three times in the year, —in the festival of unleavened cakes and in the festival of weeks, and in the festival of booths;
又遵着摩西的吩咐在安息日、月朔，并一年三节，就是除酵节、七七节、住棚节，献每日所当献的祭。
14 and he caused to stand, according to the regulation of David his father, the courses of the priests over their service and of the Levites over their charges, to offer praise and to minister before the priests, for the duty of each day upon its own day, and the gate-keepers in their courses, at every several gate, —for, such, was the commandment of David the man of God;
所罗门照着他父大卫所定的例，派定祭司的班次，使他们各供己事，又使利未人各尽其职，赞美耶和华，在祭司面前做每日所当做的；又派守门的按着班次看守各门，因为神人大卫是这样吩咐的。
15 neither departed they from the commandment of the king, concerning the priests and the Levites as to any duty, or as to the treasuries.
王所吩咐众祭司和利未人的，无论是管府库或办别的事，他们都不违背。
16 So all the work of Solomon was prepared, from the day of founding the house of Yahweh, even as far as the finishing thereof, —complete was the house of Yahweh.
所罗门建造耶和华的殿，从立根基直到成功的日子，工料俱备。这样，耶和华的殿全然完毕。
17 Then, went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and unto Eloth on the seashore in the land of Edom.
那时，所罗门往以东地靠海的以旬·迦别和以禄去。
18 And Huram sent him—by the hand of his servants—ships, and servants skilled in the sea, and they came, with the servants of Solomon, towards Ophir, and took from thence, four hundred and fifty talents of gold, —and brought unto King Solomon.
希兰差遣他的臣仆，将船只和熟悉泛海的仆人送到所罗门那里。他们同着所罗门的仆人到了俄斐，得了四百五十他连得金子，运到所罗门王那里。
