GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Και αφου ετελειωσεν ο Σολομων, να οικοδομη τον οικον του Κυριου και τον οικον του βασιλεως και παντα οσα επεθυμει ο Σολομων και ηθελε να καμη,	1 Now it happened that, when Solomon had perfected the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he had desired and had willed to do,
2 εφανη ο Κυριος εις τον Σολομωντα δευτεραν φοραν, καθως εφανη εις αυτον εν Γαβαων.	2 the Lord appeared to him a second time, just as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
3 Και ειπεν ο Κυριος προς αυτον, Ηκουσα της προσευχης σου και της δεησεως σου, την οποιαν εδεηθης ενωπιον μου. Ηγιασα τον οικον τουτον, τον οποιον ωκοδομησας, δια να θεσω εκει το ονομα μου εις τον αιωνα? και θελουσιν εισθαι οι οφθαλμοι μου και η καρδια μου εκει δια παντος.	3 And the Lord said to him: “I have heard your prayer and your petition, which you prayed before me. I have sanctified this house, which you have built, so that I may place my name there forever, and so that my eyes and my heart will be there for all days.
4 Και συ εαν περιπατησης ενωπιον μου, καθως περιεπατησε Δαβιδ ο πατηρ σου, εν ακεραιοτητι καρδιας και εν ευθυτητι, ωστε να καμνης κατα παντα οσα προσεταξα εις σε, να φυλαττης τα διαταγματα μου και τας κρισεις μου,	4 Also, if you will walk before me, just as your father walked, in simplicity of heart and in equity, and you do all that I have instructed to you, and you keep my laws and my judgments,
5 τοτε θελω στερεωσει τον θρονον της βασιλειας σου επι τον Ισραηλ εις τον αιωνα, καθως υπεσχεθην προς Δαβιδ τον πατερα σου, λεγων, Δεν θελει εκλειψει εις σε ανηρ επανωθεν του θρονου του Ισραηλ.	5 then I will set the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, just as I promised your father David, saying: ‘A man from your stock shall not be taken away from the throne of Israel.’
6 Εαν ποτε στραφητε απ' εμου, σεις η τα τεκνα σας, και δεν φυλαξητε τας εντολας μου, τα διαταγματα μου, τα οποια εθεσα εμπροσθεν σας, αλλα υπαγητε και λατρευσητε αλλους θεους και προσκυνησητε αυτους,	6 But if you and your sons, wandering, will have turned away, not following me, and not keeping my commandments and my ceremonies, which I have proposed to you, but instead you go away, and you serve strange gods and adore them,
7 τοτε θελω εκριζωσει τον Ισραηλ απο προσωπου της γης, την οποιαν εδωκα εις αυτους? και τον οικον τουτον, τον οποιον ηγιασα δια το ονομα μου, θελω απορριψει απο προσωπου μου? και ο Ισραηλ θελει εισθαι εις παροιμιαν και εμπαιγμον μεταξυ παντων των λαων.	7 then I will take away Israel from the face of the land, which I have given to them. And the temple, which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out from my sight. And Israel will be a proverb and a parable among all the peoples.
8 Περι δε του οικου τουτου, οστις εγεινε τοσον υψηλος, πας ο διαβαινων πλησιον αυτου θελει μενει εκθαμβος και θελει καμνει συριγμον? και θελουσι λεγει, Δια τι ο Κυριος εκαμεν ουτως εις την γην ταυτην και εις τον οικον τουτον;	8 And this house will become an example: anyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and he will hiss and say, ‘Why has the Lord acted in this way to this land and to this house?’
9 Και θελουσιν αποκρινεσθαι, Επειδη εγκατελιπον Κυριον τον Θεον αυτων, οστις εξηγαγε τους πατερας αυτων εκ γης Αιγυπτου, και προσεκολληθησαν εις αλλους θεους και προσεκυνησαν αυτους και ελατρευσαν αυτους, δια τουτο ο Κυριος επεφερεν επ' αυτους απαν τουτο το κακον.	9 And they will respond: ‘Because they abandoned the Lord their God, who led their fathers away from the land of Egypt, and they followed strange gods, and they adored them and served them. For this reason, the Lord led all this evil over them.’ ”
10 Εν δε τω τελει των εικοσι ετων καθ' α ο Σολομων ωκοδομησε τους δυο οικους, τον οικον του Κυριου και τον οικον του βασιλεως,	10 Then, when twenty years were fulfilled, after Solomon had built the two houses, that is, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,
11 ο δε Χειραμ ο βασιλευς της Τυρου ειχε βοηθησει τον Σολομωντα με ξυλα κεδρου και με ξυλα πευκης και με χρυσιον, καθ' ολην την επιθυμιαν αυτου, τοτε ο βασιλευς Σολομων εδωκεν εις τον Χειραμ εικοσι πολεις εν τη γη της Γαλιλαιας.	11 Hiram, the king of Tyre, having supplied Solomon with cedar wood, and spruce wood, and gold, in accord with all that he needed, then Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns in the land of Galilee.
12 Και εξηλθεν ο Χειραμ απο της Τυρου δια να ιδη τας πολεις, τας οποιας εδωκεν ο Σολομων εις αυτον? και δεν ηρεσαν εις αυτον.	12 And Hiram went out of Tyre, so that he might view the towns that Solomon had given to him. And they did not please him.
13 Και ειπε, Τι ειναι αι πολεις αυται, τας οποιας μοι εδωκας, αδελφε μου; και εκαλεσεν αυτας γην Καβουλ, εως της ημερας ταυτης.	13 And he said, “Are these the cities that you have given to me, brother?” And he called them the land of Cabul, even to this day.
14 Και απεστειλεν ο Χειραμ εις τον βασιλεα εκατον εικοσι ταλαντα χρυσιου.	14 And Hiram sent to king Solomon one hundred twenty talents of gold.
15 Ουτος δε ειναι ο τροπος του φορου, τον οποιον επεβαλεν ο βασιλευς Σολομων, δια να οικοδομηση τον οικον του Κυριου και τον οικον εαυτου και την Μιλλω και το περιτειχισμα της Ιερουσαλημ και την Ασωρ και την Μεγιδδω και την Γεζερ.	15 This is the sum of the expenses that king Solomon offered for the building of the house of the Lord, and his own house, and for Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 Διοτι Φαραω ο βασιλευς Αιγυπτου ειχεν αναβη και κυριευσει την Γεζερ και κατακαυσει αυτην εν πυρι, και τους Χαναναιους τους κατοικουντας εν τη πολει ειχε φονευσει και ειχε δωσει αυτην δωρον εις την θυγατερα αυτου, την γυναικα του Σολομωντος.	16 Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, ascended and seized Gezer, and he burned it with fire. And he put to death the Canaanite who was living in the city, and he gave it as a dowry for his daughter, the wife of Solomon.
17 Και ωκοδομησεν ο Σολομων την Γεζερ και την Βαιθ-ωρων την κατωτεραν,	17 Therefore, Solomon built up Gezer, and lower Beth-horon,
18 και την Βααλαθ, και την Θαδμωρ εν τη ερημω της γης,	18 and Baalath, and Palmira in the land of the wilderness.
19 και πασας τας πολεις των αποθηκων, τας οποιας ειχεν ο Σολομων, και τας πολεις των αμαξων και τας πολεις των ιππεων και ο, τι επεθυμησεν ο Σολομων να οικοδομηση εν Ιερουσαλημ και εν τω Λιβανω και εν παση τη γη της επικρατειας αυτου.	19 And all the towns which belonged to him, and which were without walls, he walled, along with the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatever was pleasing to him that he might build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in the entire land of his dominion.
20 Παντα δε τον λαον τον εναπολειφθεντα εκ των Αμορραιων, των Χετταιων, των Φερεζαιων, των Ευαιων και των Ιεβουσαιων, οιτινες δεν ησαν εκ των υιων Ισραηλ,	20 All the people who had remained of the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the sons of Israel,
21 αλλ' εκ των τεκνων εκεινων των εναπολειφθεντων εν τη γη, τους οποιους οι υιοι Ισραηλ δεν ηδυνηθησαν να εξολοθρευσωσιν, επι τουτους ο Σολομων επεβαλε φορον εως της ημερας ταυτης.	21 their sons, who had remained in the land, namely, those whom the sons of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary, even to this day.
22 Εκ δε των υιων Ισραηλ ο Σολομων δεν εκαμεν ουδενα δουλον? διοτι ησαν ανδρες πολεμισται και θεραποντες αυτου και μεγιστανες αυτου και ταξιαρχοι αυτου και αρχοντες των αμαξων αυτου και των ιππεων αυτου.	22 But from the sons of Israel, Solomon did not appoint anyone at all to serve, except the men of war, and his ministers, and leaders, and commanders, and the overseers of the chariots and the horses.
23 Οι δε αρχηγοι των επιστατουντων επι τα εργα του Σολομωντος, ησαν πεντακοσιοι πεντηκοντα, εξουσιαζοντες επι τον λαον τον δουλευοντα εις τα εργα.	23 Now there were five hundred fifty leaders in the first place over all the works of Solomon, and they had people subject to them, and these were given orders for the appointed works.
24 Ανεβη δε η θυγατηρ του Φαραω εκ της πολεως Δαβιδ εις τον οικον αυτης, τον οποιον ο Σολομων ωκοδομησε δι' αυτην? τοτε ωκοδομησε την Μιλλω.	24 And the daughter of Pharaoh went up from the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her. Then he built up Millo.
25 Και προσεφερεν ο Σολομων τρις του ενιαυτου ολοκαυτωματα και ειρηνικας προσφορας επι του θυσιαστηριου, το οποιον ωκοδομησεν εις τον Κυριον, και εθυμιαζεν επι του οντος εμπροσθεν του Κυριου? ουτως ετελειωσε τον οικον.	25 Also, three times each year, Solomon offered holocausts and victims of peace offerings, upon the altar that he had built to the Lord, and he burned incense before the Lord. And the temple was perfected.
26 Εκαμε δε στολον ο βασιλευς Σολομων εν Εσιων-γαβερ, ητις ειναι πλησιον της Αιλωθ, επι το χειλος της Ερυθρας θαλασσης, εν τη γη Εδωμ.	26 And king Solomon made a navy at Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shores of the Red Sea, in the land of Idumea.
27 Και απεστειλεν ο Χειραμ εις τον στολον εκ των δουλων αυτου ναυτας εμπειρους της θαλασσης, μετα των δουλων του Σολομωντος.	27 And Hiram sent his servants to that navy, the sailors and those knowledgeable about the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 Και ηλθον εις Οφειρ και ελαβον εκειθεν τετρακοσια και εικοσι ταλαντα χρυσιου και εφεραν προς τον βασιλεα Σολομωντα.	28 And when they had gone to Ophir, taking from there four hundred twenty talents of gold, they brought it to king Solomon.
