1
Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great: for the palace is not for man, but for the Lord God.
Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ ὁ βασιλεὺς πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ, Σαλωμὼν ὁ υἱός μου, εἰς ὃν ᾑρέτικεν ἐν αὐτῷ Κύριος, νέος καὶ ἁπαλὸς, καὶ τὸ ἔργον μέγα, ὅτι οὐκ ἀνθρώπῳ, ἀλλʼ ἢ Κυρίῳ Θεῷ.
2
Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for things to be made of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and the brass for things of brass, the iron for things of iron, and wood for things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.
Κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν δύναμιν ἡτοίμακα εἰς οἶκον Θεοῦ μου χρυσὶον, ἀργύριον, χαλκόν, σίδηρον, ξύλα, λίθους σοὰμ, καὶ πληρώσεως λίθους πολυτελεῖς καὶ ποικίλους, καὶ πάντα λίθον τίμιον, καὶ Πάριον πολύν.
3
Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,
Καὶ ἔτι ἐν τῷ εὐδοκῆσαί με ἐν οἴκῳ Θεοῦ μου, ἔστι μοι ὃ περιπεποίημαι χρυσίον καὶ ἀργύριον, καὶ ἰδοὺ δέδωκα εἰς οἶκον Θεοῦ μου εἰς ὕψος, ἐκτὸς ὧν ἡτοίμακα εἰς τὸν οἶκον τῶν ἁγίων,
4
Even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses withal:
τρισχίλια τάλαντα χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Σουφὶρ, καὶ ἑπτακισχίλια τάλαντα ἀργυρίου δοκίμου, ἐξαλειφῆναι ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς τοίχους τοῦ ἱεροῦ,
5
The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the Lord?
εἰς τὸ χρυσίον τῷ χρυσίῳ, καὶ εἰς τὸ ἀργύριον τῷ ἀργυρίῳ, καὶ εἰς πᾶν ἔργον διὰ χειρὸς τῶν τεχνιτῶν· καὶ τίς ὁ προθυμούμενος πληρῶσαι τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ σήμερον Κυρίῳ;
6
Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king’s work, offered willingly,
Καὶ προεθυμήθησαν ἄρχοντες πατριῶν, καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οἱ χιλίαρχοι καὶ οἱ ἑκατόνταρχοι, καὶ οἱ προστάται τῶν ἔργων, καὶ οἱ οἰκοδόμοι τοῦ βασιλέως.
7
And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.
Καὶ ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰ ἔργα τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου χρυσίου τάλαντα πεντακισχίλια, καὶ χρυσοῦς μυρίους, καὶ ἀργυρίου ταλάντων δέκα χιλιάδας, καὶ χαλκοῦ τάλαντα μύρια ὀκτακισχίλια, καὶ σιδήρου ταλάντων χιλιάδας ἑκατόν.
8
And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of the Lord, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.
Καὶ οἷς εὑρέθη παρʼ αὐτοῖς λίθος, ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰς ἀποθήκας οἴκου Κυρίου διὰ χειρὸς Ἰεϊὴλ τοῦ Γεδσωνί.
9
Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the Lord: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
Καὶ εὐφράνθη ὁ λαὸς ὑπὲρ τοῦ προθυμηθῆναι, ὅτι ἐν καρδίᾳ πλήρει προεθυμήθησαν τῷ Κυρίῳ· καὶ Δαυὶδ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐφράνθη μεγάλως.
10
Wherefore David blessed the Lord before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, Lord God of Israel our father, for ever and ever.
Καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ τὸν Κύριον ἐνώπιον τῆς ἐκκλησίας, λέγων,
11
1
Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all.
Εὐλογητὸς εἶ Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ, ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν, ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος. Σοὶ Κύριε ἡ μεγαλωσύνη, καὶ ἡ δύναμις, καὶ τὸ καύχημα, καὶ ἡ νίκη, καὶ ἡ ἰσχὺς, ὅτι σὺ πάντων τῶν ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς δεσπόζεις· ἀπὸ προσώπου σου ταράσσεται πᾶς βασιλεὺς, καὶ ἔθνος.
12
Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.
Παρὰ σοῦ ὁ πλοῦτος καὶ ἡ δόξα, σὺ πάντων ἄρχεις Κύριε, ὁ ἄρχων πάσης ἀρχῆς, καὶ ἐν χειρί σου ἰσχὺς καὶ δυναστεία, καὶ ἐν χειρί σου παντοκράτωρ μεγαλῦναι καὶ κατισχύσαι τὰ πάντα.
13
Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.
Καὶ νῦν, Κύριε ἐξομολογούμεθά σοι, καὶ αἰνοῦμεν τὸ ὄνομα τῆς καυχήσεώς σου.
14
But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.
Καὶ τίς εἰμι ἐγὼ, καὶ τίς ὁ λαός μου ὅτι ἰσχύσαμεν προθυμηθῆναί σοι κατὰ ταῦτα; ὅτι σὰ τὰ πάντα, καὶ ἐκ τῶν σῶν δεδώκαμέν σοι.
15
For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.
Ὅτι πάροικοι ἐσμὲν ἐναντίον σου, καὶ παροικοῦντες ὡς πάντες οἱ πατέρες ἡμων· ὡς σκιὰ αἱ ἡμέραι ἡμῶν ἐπὶ γῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὑπομονή.
16
O Lord our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand, and is all thine own.
Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, πρὸς πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος τοῦτο ὃ ἡτοίμακα οἰκοδομηθῆναι οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ σου, ἐκ χειρός σου ἐστὶ, καὶ σοὶ τὰ πάντα.
17
I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.
Καὶ ἔγνων, Κύριε, ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐτάζων καρδίας, καὶ δικαιοσύνην ἀγαπᾷς· ἐν ἁπλότητι καρδίας προεθυμήθην ταῦτα πάντα, καὶ νῦν τὸν λαόν σου τὸν εὑρεθέντα ὧδε εἶδον ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ προθυμηθέντα σοι.
18
O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee:
Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς Ἁβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ, τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, φύλαξον ταῦτα ἐν διανοίᾳ καρδίας λαοῦ σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ κατεύθυνον τὰς καρδίας αὐτῶν πρὸς σέ.
19
And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for the which I have made provision.
Καὶ Σαλωμὼν τῷ υἱῷ μου δὸς καρδίαν ἀγαθὴν ποιεῖν τὰς ἐντολάς σου, καὶ τὰ μαρτύριά σου, καὶ τὰ προστάγματά σου, καὶ τοῦ ἐπὶ τέλος ἀγαγεῖν τὴν κατασκευὴν τοῦ οἴκου σου.
20
And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the Lord, and the king.
Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ, εὐλογήσατε Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν ἡμῶν· καὶ εὐλόγησε πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν· καὶ κάμψαντες τὰ γόνατα προσεκύνησαν Κυρίῳ, καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ.
21
And they sacrificed sacrifices unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings unto the Lord, on the morrow after that day, even a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel:
Καὶ ἔθυσε Δαυὶδ τῷ Κυρίῳ θυσίας, καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ Θεῷ τῇ ἐπαύριον τῆς πρώτης ἡμέρας μόσχους χιλίους, κριοὺς χιλίους, ἄρνας χιλίους, καὶ τὰς σπονδὰς αὐτῶν, καὶ θυσίας εἰς πλῆθος παντὶ τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
22
And did eat and drink before the Lord on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him unto the Lord to be the chief governor, and Zadok to be priest.
Καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ μετὰ χαρᾶς· καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐκ δευτέρου τὸν Σαλωμὼν υἱὸν Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἔχρισαν αὐτὸν τῷ Κυρίῳ εἰς βασιλέα, καὶ Σαδὼκ εἰς ἱερωσύνην.
23
Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.
Καὶ ἐκάθισε Σαλωμὼν ἐπὶ θρόνου Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐδοκήθη, καὶ ὑπήκουσαν αὐτοῦ πᾶς Ἰσραήλ.
24
And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king.
Οἱ ἄρχοντες, καὶ οἱ δυνάσται, καὶ πάντες υἱοὶ Δαυὶδ τοῦ βασιλέως τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ὑπετάγησαν αὐτῷ.
25
And the Lord magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
Καὶ ἐμεγάλυνε Κύριος τὸν Σαλωμὼν ἐπάνωθεν παντὸς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ δόξαν βασιλέως, ὃ οὐκ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ παντὸς βασιλέως ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
26
Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
Καὶ Δαυὶδ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ
27
And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
ἔτη τεσσράκοντα, ἐν Χεβρὼν ἔτη ἑπτὰ, καὶ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἔτη τριακοντατρία.
28
And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.
Καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν ἐν γήρᾳ καλῷ, πλήρης ἡμερῶν, πλούτῳ καὶ δόξῃ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Σαλωμὼν υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.
29
Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,
Οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ λόγοι τοῦ βασιλέως Δαυὶδ οἱ πρότεροι καὶ οἱ ὕστεροι γεγραμμένοι εἰσὶν ἐν λόγοις Σαμουὴλ τοῦ βλέποντος, καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Νάθαν τοῦ προφήτου, καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Γὰδ τοῦ βλέποντος,
30
With all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.
περὶ πάσης τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ τῆς δυναστείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ καιροὶ οἳ ἐγένοντο ἐπʼ αὐτῷ, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐπὶ πάσας βασιλείας τῆς γῆς.
