Ii Paralipomenon 8
1 Expletis autem viginti annis postquam ædificavit Salomon domum Domini et domum suam:
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built Yahweh’s house and his own house,
2 civitates, quas dederat Hiram Salomoni, ædificavit, et habitare ibi fecit filios Israel.
Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3 Abiit quoque in Emath Suba, et obtinuit eam.
Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 Et ædificavit Palmiram in deserto, et alias civitates munitissimas ædificavit in Emath.
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
5 Extruxitque Bethoron superiorem, et Bethoron inferiorem, civitates muratas habentes portas et vectes et seras:
Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
6 Balaath etiam et omnes urbes firmissimas, quæ fuerunt Salomonis, cunctasque urbes quadrigarum, et urbes equitum. Omnia quæcumque voluit Salomon atque disposuit, ædificavit in Ierusalem et in Libano, et in universa terra potestatis suæ.
and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7 Omnem populum, qui derelictus fuerat de Hethæis, et Amorrhæis, et Pherezæis, et Hevæis, et Iebusæis, qui non erant de stirpe Israel,
As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel—
8 de filiis eorum: et de posteris, quos non interfecerant filii Israel, subiugavit Salomon in tributarios, usque in diem hanc.
of 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.
9 Porro de filiis Israel non posuit ut servirent operibus regis: ipsi enim erant viri bellatores, et duces primi, et principes quadrigarum et equitum eius.
But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 Omnes autem principes exercitus regis Salomonis fuerunt ducenti quinquaginta, qui erudiebant populum.
These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 Filiam vero Pharaonis transtulit de Civitate David in domum, quam ædificaverat ei. Dixit enim rex: Non habitabit uxor mea in domo David regis Israel, eo quod sanctificata sit: quia ingressa est in eam arca Domini.
Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city 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.”
12 Tunc obtulit Salomon holocausta Domino super altare Domini, quod extruxerat ante porticum,
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on Yahweh’s altar which he had built before the porch,
13 ut per singulos dies offerretur in eo iuxta præceptum Moysi in Sabbatis et in calendis, et in festis diebus, ter per annum, id est, in sollemnitate azymorum, et in sollemnitatem hebdomadarum, et in sollemnitate tabernaculorum.
even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.
14 Et constituit iuxta dispositionem David patris sui officia Sacerdotum in ministeriis suis: et Levitas in ordine suo, ut laudarent, et ministrarent coram Sacerdotibus iuxta ritum uniuscuiusque diei: et ianitores in divisionibus suis per portam et portam: sic enim præceperat David homo Dei.
He 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 David the man of God had so commanded.
15 Nec prætergressi sunt de mandatis regis tam Sacerdotes, quam Levitæ ex omnibus, quæ præceperat, et in custodiis thesaurorum.
They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
16 Omnes impensas præparatas habuit Salomon ex eo die, quo fundavit domum Domini usque in diem, quo perfecit eam.
Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of Yahweh’s house until it was finished. So Yahweh’s house was completed.
17 Tunc abiit Salomon in Asiongaber, et in Ailath ad oram Maris Rubri, quæ est in Terra Edom.
Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18 Misit autem ei Hiram per manus servorum suorum naves, et nautas gnaros maris, et abierunt cum servis Salomonis in Ophir, tuleruntque inde quadringenta quinquaginta talenta auri, et attulerunt ad regem Salomonem.
Huram 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 brought from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
