列王纪上 9
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华再次向所罗门显现
9 所罗门建完耶和华的殿、自己的王宫和所有要建的建筑后， 2 耶和华像在基遍一样再次向他显现， 3 对他说：“我听了你的祷告和祈求。我已使你建的殿成为圣洁之地，让我的名永在其中，我会一直眷顾这殿。 4 如果你像你父亲大卫一样存诚实正直的心事奉我，遵行我的一切吩咐，谨守我的律例和典章， 5 我必使你的王位在以色列永远稳固，正如我曾向你父亲大卫应许要使他的王朝永不中断。
6 “然而，如果你们及你们的子孙离弃我，不守我的诫命和律例，去供奉、祭拜别的神明， 7 我必把以色列人从我赐给他们的土地上铲除，并离弃我为自己的名而使之圣洁的这殿，使以色列人在万民中成为笑柄，被人嘲讽。 8 这殿虽然宏伟，但将来经过的人必惊讶，讥笑说，‘耶和华为什么这样对待这地方和这殿呢？’ 9 人们会回答，‘因为他们背弃曾领他们祖先离开埃及的耶和华——他们的上帝，去追随、祭拜、供奉别的神明，所以耶和华把这一切灾祸降在他们身上。’”
所罗门的事迹
10 所罗门用二十年的时间兴建了耶和华的殿和自己的王宫。 11 泰尔王希兰供应了所罗门所需要的一切香柏木、松木和黄金，所罗门王就把加利利一带的二十座城送给他。 12 希兰从泰尔去视察这些城，然后满心不悦地对所罗门说： 13 “兄弟啊，你送给我的是什么城邑呀？”因此，他称这个地区为迦步勒[a]，沿用至今。 14 希兰供应了所罗门王约四吨金子。
15 所罗门征召劳役兴建耶和华的殿、自己的王宫、米罗堡和耶路撒冷的城墙以及夏琐、米吉多和基色。 16 从前埃及王法老攻陷基色，火烧全城，杀了城内的迦南人，把基色赐予女儿，即所罗门之妻作嫁妆。 17 所罗门现在重建基色、下伯·和仑、 18 巴拉和境内沙漠地区的达莫。 19 他还建造了所有的储货城、屯车城、养马城和计划在耶路撒冷、黎巴嫩及全国兴建的城邑。
20 当时国中有亚摩利人、赫人、比利洗人、希未人和耶布斯人的后裔， 21 以色列人没能灭绝这些外族人，所罗门让他们服劳役，至今如此。 22 所罗门王没有让以色列人服劳役，而是让他们做战士、官长、统帅、将领、战车长和骑兵长。 23 他还任命五百五十名监工负责监管工人。
24 法老的女儿从大卫城迁到为她建造的宫殿以后，所罗门动工兴建米罗堡。 25 耶和华的殿落成以后，所罗门每年三次在他为耶和华筑的坛上献燔祭、平安祭并在耶和华面前烧香。
26 所罗门王在以东境内的红海边、靠近以禄的以旬·迦别制造船只。 27 希兰派有经验的水手与所罗门的水手一起出海， 28 从俄斐为所罗门王运回了十四吨黄金。

1 Kings 9
1599 Geneva Bible
9 2 The Lord appeareth the second time to Solomon. 11 Solomon giveth cities to Hiram. 20 The Canaanites become tributaries. 28 He sendeth forth a navy for gold.
1 When (A)Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the King’s palace, and all that Solomon desired and minded to do,
2 Then the Lord appeared unto Solomon the second time, as he (B)appeared unto him at Gibeon.
3 And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house (which thou hast built) to (C)put my Name there forever, and mine eyes, and my heart shall be there perpetually.
4 And [a]if thou wilt walk before me (as David thy father walked in pureness of heart and in righteousness) to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and keep my statutes, and my judgments,
5 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel forever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, (D)Thou shalt not want a man upon the throne of Israel.
6 But if ye and your children turn away from me, and will [b]not keep my Commandments, and my statutes (which I have set before you) but go and serve other gods, and worship them,
7 Then will I cut off Israel from the land, which I have given them, and the house which I have hallowed (E)for my Name, will I cast out of my sight, and Israel shall be a [c]proverb, and a common talk among all people.
8 Even this high house shall be so: everyone that passeth by it, shall be astonied, and shall hiss, and they shall say, (F)Why hath the Lord done thus unto this land and to this house?
9 And they shall answer, Because they forsook the Lord their God, which brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them, and served them, therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.
10 (G)And at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the King’s palace,
11 (For the which Hiram the king of [d]Tyre had brought to Solomon timber of Cedar and fir trees, and gold, and whatsoever he desired) then king Solomon gave to Hiram twenty cities in the land of [e]Galilee.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him, and they pleased him not.
13 Therefore he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of [f]Cabul unto this day.
14 And Hiram had sent the King [g]sixscore [h]talents of gold.
15 ¶ And this is the cause of the tribute, why King Solomon raised tribute, to wit, to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and [i]Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt had come up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slew the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and gave it for a present unto his daughter Solomon’s wife.
17 (Therefore Solomon built Gezer and Beth Horon the nether,
18 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness of the land,
19 And all the cities [j]of store, that Solomon had, even cities for chariots, and cities for horsemen, and all that Solomon desired and would build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion)
20 All the people that were [k]left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel
21 To wit, their children that were left after them in the land whom the children of Israel were not able to destroy, those did Solomon make tributaries unto this day
22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon (H)make no bondmen: but they were men of war and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and his horsemen.
23 These were the princes of the officers, that were over Solomon’s work: even [l]five hundred and fifty, and they ruled the people that wrought in the work.
24 ¶ And Pharaoh’s daughter came up from the city of David unto the house which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Millo.
25 And thrice a year did Solomon offer burnt offerings and peace offerings upon the altar which he built unto the Lord: and he burnt incense upon the altar that was before the Lord, when he had finished the house.
26 Also king Solomon made a navy of ships in Ezion Geber, which is beside Elath, and the brink of the red sea, in the land of Edom.
27 And Hiram sent with the navy, his servants, that were mariners, and had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 And they came to Ophir, and fet from thence [m]four hundred and twenty talents of gold, and brought it to king Solomon.
