2 Dnevnika 2

1 I naumi Solomun da zida dom imenu Gospodnjemu i dom carski sebi.

And Solomon said that he would build a house to the name of the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.

2 I odbroji Solomun sedamdeset tisuæa nosilaca i osamdeset tisuæa koji æe tesati u gori, i tri tisuæe i šest stotina nastojnika nad njima.

And Solomon gathered seventy thousand men that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers of stone in the mountain, and [there were] three thousand six hundred superintendents over them.

3 I posla Solomun ka Hiramu caru Tirskom i poruèi mu: kako si èinio Davidu ocu mojemu i slao mu drva kedrovijeh da zida sebi kuæu gdje æe sjedjeti, uèini tako i meni.

And Solomon sent to Chiram king of Tyre, saying, Whereas thou didst deal [favourably] with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build for himself a house to dwell in,

4 Evo rad sam zidati dom imenu Gospoda Boga svojega da mu ga posvetim da se kadi pred njim kadom mirisnijem i da se postavljaju hljebovi vazda i da se prinose žrtve paljenice jutrom i veèerom, i u subote i na mladine i na praznike Gospoda Boga našega, što treba da biva u Izrailju dovijeka.

behold, I also his son am building a house to the name of the Lord my God, to consecrate it to him, to burn incense before him, and [to offer] shewbread continually, and to offer up whole-burnt-offerings continually morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts of the Lord our God: this [is] a perpetual [statute] for Israel.

5 A dom koji æu zidati biæe velik, jer je Bog naš veæi od svijeh bogova.

And the house which I am building [is to be] great: for the Lord our God [is] great beyond all gods.

6 A ko bi mogao njemu sazidati dom kad ga nebo i nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu obuhvatiti? i ko sam ja da mu sazidam dom? nego samo da se kadi pred njim.

And who will be able to build him a house? for the heaven and heaven of heavens do not bear his glory: and who am I, that I should build him a house, save only to burn incense before him?

7 Tako sada pošlji mi èovjeka vješta, koji umije raditi od zlata i od srebra i od mjedi i od gvožða i od skerleta i od crvca i od porfire, i koji zna rezati, da radi s umjetnicima koje imam kod sebe u Judeji i u Jerusalimu, koje je dobavio David otac moj.

And now send me a man wise and skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and in scarlet, and in blue, and one that knows how to grave together with the craftsmen who are with me in Juda and in Jerusalem, which materials my father David prepared.

8 I pošlji mi drva kedrovijeh i jelovijeh i almugima s Livana, jer znam da sluge tvoje umiju sjeæi drva Livanska; a evo sluge æe moje biti s tvojim slugama,

And send me from Libanus cedar wood, and wood of juniper, and pine; for I know that thy servants are skilled in cutting timber in Libanus: and, behold, thy servants shall go with my servants,

9 Da mi priprave mnogo drva, jer dom što æu zidati biæe velik i divan.

to prepare timber for me in abundance: for the house which I am building [must be] great and glorious.

10 A evo, poslenicima koji æe sjeæi drvo, slugama tvojim, daæu pšenice ovršene dvadeset tisuæa kora, i dvadeset tisuæa kora jeèma, i vina dvadeset tisuæa vata, i ulja dvadeset tisuæa vata.

And, behold, I have given freely to thy servants that work and cut the wood, corn for food, [even] twenty thousand measures of wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand measures of wine, and twenty thousand measures of oil.

11 I odgovori Hiram car Tirski u knjizi koju posla Solomunu: što Gospod ljubi svoj narod zato te postavi carem nad njim.

And Chiram king of Tyre answered in writing, and sent to Solomon, saying, Because the Lord loved his people, he made thee king over them.

12 I govoraše Hiram: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je stvorio nebo i zemlju, što je dao caru Davidu sina mudra, pametna i razumna, koji æe sazidati dom Gospodu i carski dom sebi.

And Chiram said, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to king David a wise son, and one endowed with knowledge and understanding, who shall build a house for the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.

13 Šaljem ti dakle èovjeka vješta i razumna, Hirama Aviva,

And now I have sent thee a wise and understanding man [who belonged] to Chiram my father

14 Sina jedne žene izmeðu kæeri Danovijeh, kojemu je otac bio Tirac; on umije raditi od zlata i od srebra, od mjedi, od gvožða, od kamena i od drveta, od skerleta, od porfire i od tankoga platna i od crvca, i rezati svašta, i izmisliti svašta vješto što mu se da, neka radi s tvojim umjetnicima i s umjetnicima gospodara mojega Davida oca tvojega.

(his mother [was] of the daughters of Dan, and his father [was] a Tyrian), skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in stones and wood; and to weave with purple, and blue, and fine linen, and scarlet; and to engrave, and to understand every device, whatsoever thou shalt give him [to do] with thy craftsmen, and the craftsmen of my lord David thy father.

15 Neka dakle pšenicu i jeèam, ulje i vino, što je rekao gospodar moj, pošlje slugama svojim.

And now, the wheat, and the barley, and the oil, and the wine which my lord mentioned, let him send to his servants.

16 A mi æemo nasjeæi drva na Livanu koliko ti god treba, i spustiæemo ih u splavovima morem u Jopu, a ti ih odande vozi u Jerusalim.

And we will cut timber out of Libanus according to all thy need, and we will bring it on rafts to the sea of Joppa, and thou shalt bring it to Jerusalem.

17 Tada Solomun izbroji sve inostrance koji bijahu u zemlji Izrailjevoj poslije brojenja kad ih izbroji David otac njegov, i naðe ih se sto i pedeset i tri tisuæe i šest stotina;

And Solomon gathered all the foreigners that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them; and there were found a hundred and fifty-three thousand six hundred.

18 I odredi od njih sedamdeset tisuæa koji æe nositi, i osamdeset tisuæa koji æe tesati u planini, a tri tisuæe i šest stotina nastojnika da nastoje da radi narod.

And he made of them seventy thousand burden-bearers, and eighty thousand hewers of stone, and three thousand six hundred taskmasters over the people.
