1 Τοτε ειπεν ο Δαβιδ, Ουτος ειναι ο οικος Κυριου του Θεου, και τουτο το θυσιαστηριον της ολοκαυτωσεως εις τον Ισραηλ.1 And David said, “This is the house of God, and this is the altar for the holocaust of Israel.”
2 Και προσεταξεν ο Δαβιδ να συναξωσι τους ξενους τους εν γη Ισραηλ? και κατεστησε λιθοτομους δια να λατομησωσι λιθους ξυστους, προς οικοδομησιν του οικου του Θεου.2 And he instructed them to gather all the new converts from the land of Israel. And from these he appointed stoneworkers, to hew stones and to polish them, so that he might build the house of God.
3 Ο Δαβιδ ητοιμασε και σιδηρον πολυν, δια καρφια των θυρωματων των πυλων και δια τας συναρθρωσεις? και χαλκον αφθονον αζυγιστον?3 Also, David prepared very much iron to use for the nails of the gates, and for the seams and joints, as well as an immeasurable weight of brass.
4 και ξυλα κεδρινα αναριθμητα? διοτι οι Σιδωνιοι και οι Τυριοι εφερον προς τον Δαβιδ αφθονα κεδρινα ξυλα.4 Also, the cedar trees, which the Sidonians and Tyrians had transported to David, were not able to be counted.
5 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ, Σολομων ο υιος μου ειναι νεος και απαλος? ο δε οικος οστις μελλει να οικοδομηθη εις τον Κυριον πρεπει να ηναι εις ακρον μεγαλοπρεπης, ονομαστος και ενδοξος καθ' ολην την οικουμενην? θελω λοιπον καμει ετοιμασιαν δι' αυτον. Και εκαμεν ο Δαβιδ αφθονον ετοιμασιαν προ του θανατου αυτου.5 And David said: “My son Solomon is a young and tender boy. But the house that I desire to be built to the Lord ought to be so great that it is renowned in every region. Therefore, I will prepare what will be necessary for him.” And for this reason, before his death, he prepared all the expenses.
6 Τοτε εκαλεσε Σολομωντα τον υιον αυτου και προσεταξεν εις αυτον να οικοδομηση οικον εις Κυριον τον Θεον του Ισραηλ.6 And he called for Solomon, his son. And he instructed him to build a house to the Lord, the God of Israel.
7 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τον Σολομωντα, Υιε μου, εγω μεν επεθυμησα εν τη καρδια μου να οικοδομησω οικον εις το ονομα Κυριου του Θεου μου?7 And David said to Solomon: “My son, it was my will that I build a house to the name of the Lord my God.
8 πλην εγεινε λογος Κυριου προς εμε, λεγων, Αιμα πολυ εχυσας και πολεμους μεγαλους εκαμες? δεν θελεις οικοδομησει οικον εις το ονομα μου, διοτι αιματα πολλα εχυσας επι της γης ενωπιον μου?8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: ‘You have shed much blood, and you have battled in many wars. You are not able to build a house to my name, so great was the shedding of blood before me.
9 ιδου, θελει γεννηθη εις σε υιος, οστις θελει εισθαι ανηρ αναπαυσεως? και θελω αναπαυσει αυτον απο παντων των εχθρων αυτου κυκλω? διοτι Σολομων θελει εισθαι το ονομα αυτου, και εν ταις ημεραις αυτου θελω δωσει ειρηνην και ησυχιαν εις τον Ισραηλ?9 The son who shall be born to you will be a very quiet man. For I will cause him to have rest from all his enemies on every side. And for this reason, he shall be called Peaceful. And I will grant peace and tranquility to Israel during all his days.
10 ουτος θελει οικοδομησει οικον εις το ονομα μου? και ουτος θελει εισθαι εις εμε υιος, και εγω πατηρ εις αυτον? και θελω στερεωσει τον θρονον της βασιλειας αυτου επι τον Ισραηλ εως αιωνος.10 He shall build a house to my name. And he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel unto eternity.’
11 Τωρα, υιε μου, ο Κυριος εστω μετα σου? και ευοδου και οικοδομησον τον οικον Κυριου του Θεου σου, καθως ελαλησε περι σου.11 Now then, my son, may the Lord be with you, and may you prosper and build a house to the Lord your God, just as he has spoken concerning you.
12 Μονον ο Κυριος να σοι δωση σοφιαν και συνεσιν και να σε καταστηση επι τον Ισραηλ, δια να φυλαττης τον νομον Κυριου του Θεου σου.12 Also, may the Lord give you prudence and understanding, so that you may be able to rule Israel and to guard the law of the Lord your God.
13 Τοτε θελεις ευοδωθη, εαν προσεχης να εκπληροις τα διαταγματα και τας κρισεις, τας οποιας ο Κυριος προσεταξεν εις τον Μωυσην περι του Ισραηλ? ενδυναμου και ανδριζου? μη φοβου και μη πτοηθης.13 For then you will be able to advance, if you keep the commandments and judgments that the Lord instructed Moses to teach to Israel. Be strengthened and act manfully. You should not fear, and you should not dread.
14 Και ιδου, εγω κατα την πτωχειαν μου ητοιμασα δια τον οικον του Κυριου εκατον χιλιαδας ταλαντων χρυσιου και χιλιας χιλιαδας ταλαντων αργυριου? χαλκον δε και σιδηρον αζυγιστον, διοτι ειναι αφθονος? ητοιμασα δε και ξυλα και λιθους? και συ προσθες εις ταυτα.14 Behold, in my poverty I have prepared the expenses for the house of the Lord: one hundred thousand talents of gold, and one million of talents of silver. Yet truly, there is no measuring the brass and the iron. For their magnitude is beyond numbering. And I have prepared the timber and the stones for the entire project.
15 Εχεις δε εργατας εις πληθος, λιθοτομους και κτιστας και ξυλουργους, και παντος ειδους σοφους εις παν εργον.15 Also, you have very many artisans: stoneworkers, and builders of walls, and craftsmen of wood, and those most prudent in doing the work of every art,
16 Του χρυσου, του αργυρου και του χαλκου και του σιδηρου αριθμος δεν ειναι. Σηκωθητι και καμνε? και ο Κυριος εστω μετα σου.16 with gold and silver, and with brass and iron, of which there is no number. Therefore, rise up and act. And the Lord will be with you.”
17 Ο Δαβιδ προσεταξεν ετι εις παντας τους αρχοντας του Ισραηλ να βοηθησωσι τον Σολομωντα τον υιον αυτου, λεγων,17 Also, David instructed all the leaders of Israel, so that they would assist his son Solomon,
18 Δεν ειναι με σας Κυριος ο Θεος σας και εδωκεν εις εσας αναπαυσιν πανταχοθεν; διοτι παρεδωκεν εις την χειρα μου τους κατοικουντας την γην? και η γη υπεταχθη εμπροσθεν του Κυριου και εμπροσθεν του λαου αυτου.18 saying: “You discern that the Lord your God is with you, and that he has given you rest on all sides, and that he has delivered all your enemies into your hands, and that the land has been subdued before the Lord and before his people.
19 Δοτε λοιπον την καρδιαν σας και την ψυχην σας εις το να ζητητε Κυριον τον Θεον σας? και σηκωθητε και οικοδομησατε το αγιαστηριον Κυριου του Θεου, δια να φερητε την κιβωτον της διαθηκης του Κυριου και τα αγια σκευη του Θεου εις τον οικον, οστις μελλει να οικοδομηθη επι τω ονοματι του Κυριου.19 Therefore, offer your hearts and your souls, so that you seek the Lord your God. And rise up and build a sanctuary to the Lord God, so that the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the vessels consecrated to the Lord, may be brought into the house that is built to the name of the Lord.”
