GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Και απεφασισεν ο Σολομων να οικοδομηση οικον εις το ονομα του Κυριου και οικον βασιλικον εις εαυτον,	1 And Solomon resolved to build a house to the name of the Lord, and a palace for himself.
2 Και ηριθμησεν ο Σολομων εβδομηκοντα χιλιαδας ανδρων αχθοφορων, και ογδοηκοντα χιλιαδας λιθοτομων εν τω ορει, και τρεις χιλιαδας εξακοσιους επιστατας επ' αυτων.	2 And he numbered seventy thousand men to carry upon shoulders, and eighty thousand who were hewing stones in the mountains, and three thousand six hundred as their overseers.
3 Και απεστειλεν ο Σολομων προς Χουραμ τον βασιλεα της Τυρου, λεγων, Καθως εκαμες εις τον Δαβιδ τον πατερα μου, και επεμψας προς αυτον κεδρους δια να οικοδομηση εις εαυτον οικον να κατοικηση εν αυτω, ουτω καμε και εις εμε.	3 Also, he sent to Hiram, the king of Tyre, saying: “Just as you did for my father David, when you sent him cedar wood, so that he might build a house for himself, in which he then lived,
4 Ιδου, εγω οικοδομω οικον εις το ονομα Κυριου του Θεου μου, δια να καθιερωσω τουτον εις αυτον, δια να προσφερηται ενωπιον αυτου θυμιαμα ευωδιας και οι παντοτεινοι αρτοι της προθεσεως και τα ολοκαυτωματα τα πρωινα και εσπερινα, εν τοις σαββασι και εν ταις νεομηνιαις και εν ταις επισημοις εορταις Κυριου του Θεου ημων? τουτο ειναι χρεος του Ισραηλ εις τον αιωνα.	4 do so also for me, so that I may build a house to the name of the Lord my God, so that I may consecrate it for the burning of incense before him, and for the smoke of aromatics, and for the perpetual bread of the presence, and for the holocausts, in morning and in evening, as well as on the Sabbaths and new moons and solemnities of the Lord our God forever, which have been commanded to Israel.
5 Και ο οικος τον οποιον οικοδομω ειναι μεγας? διοτι μεγας ο Θεος ημων υπερ παντας τους θεους.	5 For the house that I desire to build is great. For our God is great, above all gods.
6 Αλλα τις δυναται να οικοδομηση εις αυτον οικον, ενω ο ουρανος και ο ουρανος των ουρανων δεν ειναι ικανοι να χωρεσωσιν αυτον; Τις δε ειμαι εγω, ωστε να οικοδομησω οικον εις αυτον; ειμη μονον δια να θυσιαζω ενωπιον αυτου;	6 So then, who will be able prevail, so that he may build a worthy house for him? If heaven and the heavens of heavens cannot contain him, what am I that I would be able to build a house to him? But let it be for this only, so that incense may be burned before him.
7 Τωρα λοιπον αποστειλον προς εμε ανδρα σοφον εις το να εργαζηται εις χρυσον και εις αργυρον και εις χαλκον και εις σιδηρον και εις πορφυραν και εις κοκκινον και εις κυανουν, και επιστημονα εις το εγγλυφειν γλυφας μετα των σοφων των μετ' εμου εν τη Ιουδαια και εν τη Ιερουσαλημ, τους οποιους Δαβιδ ο πατηρ μου ητοιμασεν.	7 Therefore, send to me a learned man, who knows how to work with gold and silver, with brass and iron, with purple, scarlet, and hyacinth, and who knows how to carve engravings, along with these artisans that I have with me in Judea and Jerusalem, whom my father David has prepared.
8 Αποστειλον μοι και ξυλα κεδρινα, πευκινα και ξυλα αλγουμειμ εκ του Λιβανου? διοτι εγω γνωριζω οτι οι δουλοι σου εξευρουσι να κοπτωσι ξυλα εν τω Λιβανω? και ιδου, οι δουλοι μου θελουσιν εισθαι μετα των δουλων σου,	8 Then too, send to me cedar wood, and juniper, and pine from Lebanon. For I know that your servants know how to cut timber from Lebanon, and my servants will be with your servants,
9 δια να ετοιμασωσιν εις εμε ξυλα εν αφθονια? διοτι ο οικος τον οποιον εγω οικοδομω θελει εισθαι μεγας και θαυμαστος.	9 so that very much wood may be prepared for me. For the house that I desire to build is exceedingly great and glorious.
10 Και ιδου, θελω δωσει εις τους δουλους σου τους ξυλοτομους εικοσι χιλιαδας κορους σιτου κοπανισμενου, και εικοσι χιλιαδας κορους κριθης, και εικοσι χιλιαδας βαθ οινου, και εικοσι χιλιαδας βαθ ελαιου.	10 In addition, I will give to your servants, the workers who will cut down the trees, for provisions: twenty thousand cor of wheat, and the same number of cor of barley, and twenty thousand measures of wine, as well as twenty thousand good measures of oil.”
11 Και απεκριθη ο Χουραμ ο βασιλευς της Τυρου δι' επιστολης, την οποιαν εστειλε προς τον Σολομωντα, Επειδη ο Κυριος ηγαπησε τον λαον αυτου, σε κατεστησε βασιλεα επ' αυτους?	11 Then Hiram, the king of Tyre, said, by a letter that had been sent to Solomon: “Because the Lord loved his people, for this reason he appointed you to reign over them.”
12 ειπεν ετι ο Χουραμ, Ευλογητος Κυριος ο Θεος του Ισραηλ, ο ποιητης του ουρανου και της γης, οστις εδωκεν εις τον Δαβιδ τον βασιλεα υιον σοφον, εχοντα φρονησιν και συνεσιν, οστις θελει οικοδομησει οικον εις τον Κυριον και οικον βασιλικον εις εαυτον?	12 And he added, saying: “Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who gave to king David a son who is wise, and learned, and intelligent as well as prudent, so that he may build a house to the Lord, and a palace for himself.
13 αποστελλω λοιπον τωρα ανθρωπον σοφον, εχοντα συνεσιν, του Χουραμ του πατρος μου,	13 Therefore, I have sent my father Hiram to you; he is a prudent and very knowledgeable man,
14 υιον γυναικος εκ των θυγατερων Δαν και πατρος Τυριου, επιστημονα εις το να εργαζηται εις χρυσον και εις αργυρον, εις χαλκον, εις σιδηρον, εις λιθους και εις ξυλα, εις πορφυραν, εις κυανουν και εις βυσσον και εις κοκκινον? και εις το εγγλυφειν παν ειδος γλυφης, και εφευρισκειν πασαν εφευρεσιν εις ο, τι προβληθη εις αυτον, μετα των σοφων σου και μετα των σοφων του κυριου μου Δαβιδ του πατρος σου?	14 the son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, whose father was a Tyrian, who knows how to work with gold and silver, with brass and iron, and with marble and timber, as well as with purple, and hyacinth, and fine linen, and scarlet. And he knows how to carve every kind of engraving, and how to devise prudently whatever may be necessary to the work, with your artisans and with the artisans of my lord David, your father.
15 τωρα λοιπον τον σιτον και την κριθην, το ελαιον και τον οινον, τα οποια ο κυριος μου ειπεν, ας στειλη προς τους δουλους αυτου?	15 Therefore, send the wheat and barley and oil and wine, which you, my lord, have promised, to your own servants.
16 και ημεις θελομεν κοψει ξυλα εκ του Λιβανου, κατα πασαν την χρειαν σου, και θελομεν φερει αυτα προς σε με σχεδιας δια θαλασσης εις Ιοππην? και συ θελεις αναβιβασει αυτα εις Ιερουσαλημ.	16 Then we will cut down as much wood from Lebanon as you will need, and we will convey them as rafts by sea to Joppa. Then it will be for you to transfer them to Jerusalem.”
17 Και ηριθμησεν ο Σολομων παντας τους ανδρας τους ξενους τους εν γη Ισραηλ, μετα τον αριθμον καθ' ον Δαβιδ ο πατηρ αυτου ηριθμησεν αυτους? και ευρεθησαν εκατον πεντηκοντα τρεις χιλιαδες και εξακοσιοι.	17 And so Solomon numbered all the new converts who were in the land of Israel, after the numbering that David his father had done, and they were found to be one hundred fifty thousand and three thousand six hundred.
18 Και εξ αυτων εκαμεν εβδομηκοντα χιλιαδας αχθοφορων, και ογδοηκοντα χιλιαδας λιθοτομων εν τω ορει, και τρεις χιλιαδας εξακοσιους εργοδιωκτας επι τον λαον.	18 And he appointed seventy thousand of them, who would carry burdens on shoulders, and eighty thousand who would hew stones in the mountains, then three thousand and six hundred as overseers of the work of the people.
