历代志上 29
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
大卫亲自预备建殿的材料
29 大卫王对全体会众说:“我的儿子所罗门,是 神所拣选的,现在还年幼识浅,而这工程非常浩大;因为这殿宇不是为人建造,而是为耶和华 神建造的。 2 我为我 神的殿已经尽了我的力量,预备了金子做金器,银子做银器,铜做铜器,铁做铁器,木做木器;还有红玛瑙、用作镶嵌的宝石、彩石和各样的宝石,以及很多大理石。 3 不但这样,因我爱慕我 神的殿,就在我为建造圣殿预备的一切以外,又把我自己积蓄的金银献给我 神的殿: 4 就是俄斐金一百多公吨,精炼的银子约两百四十公吨,用来贴殿里的墙壁; 5 金子做金器,银子做银器,以及匠人手所作的各样巧工。今日有谁愿意奉献给耶和华呢?”
民众上下一心,自愿奉献
6 于是各家族的领袖、以色列各支派的领袖、千夫长、百夫长和管理王的事务的领袖,都乐意奉献。 7 为了神殿里的需用,他们奉献了金子一百七十多公吨,银子三百四十多公吨,铜约六百二十公吨和铁三千四百公吨。 8 有宝石的,都交到耶和华殿这库房,由革顺人耶歇经办。 9 人民因这些人自愿奉献而欢喜,因为他们一心乐意奉献给耶和华,大卫王也非常欢喜。
大卫称颂耶和华
10 所以大卫在全体会众面前称颂耶和华,说:“耶和华我们的祖先以色列的 神,是应当称颂的,从亘古直到永远。 11 耶和华啊,尊大、能力、荣耀、胜利和威严,都是你的;因为天上地下的万有都是你的;耶和华啊,国度是你的,你是至高的,是万有之首。 12 富足和尊荣都从你而来,你也统治万有。在你的手里有力量和权能;人的尊大、强盛都是出于你的手。 13 我们的 神啊,现在我们要称颂你,赞美你荣耀的名。 14 我算甚么?我的人民又算甚么?竟有力量这样乐意奉献?因为万物都是从你而来,我们只是把从你手里得来的,奉献给你。 15 我们在你面前是客旅,是寄居的,像我们的列祖一样;我们在世上的日子好象影儿,没有指望。 16 耶和华我们的 神啊,我们预备的这一切财物,要为你的圣名建造殿宇,都是从你而来的,也都是属于你的。 17 我的 神啊,我知道你察验人心,喜悦正直;至于我,我以正直的心甘愿奉献这一切;现在我也非常欢喜看见你在这里的人民,都甘愿奉献给你。 18 耶和华我们列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、以色列的 神啊,求你永远保守这一件事,就是使你的子民常存这心思意念,坚定他们的心归向你。 19 求你赐给我的儿子所罗门专一的心,谨守你的诫命、法度和律例,作成这一切事,用我所预备的一切来建造殿宇。”
众民称颂耶和华并且献祭
20 大卫对全体会众说:“你们应当称颂耶和华你们的 神。”于是全体会众就称颂耶和华他们列祖的 神,俯伏敬拜耶和华和王。 21 第二天,他们向耶和华献祭,他们向耶和华献上燔祭;那一天他们献了公牛一千头、公绵羊一千只、羊羔一千只,以及同献的奠祭,又为以色列众人献了许多祭。
所罗门登基作王
22 那一天,他们十分喜乐地在耶和华面前吃喝。他们再次表示拥立大卫的儿子所罗门作王,膏他为耶和华作君王,又膏撒督作祭司。 23 于是所罗门坐在耶和华所赐的位上,接续他父亲大卫作王;他凡事亨通,以色列众人都听从他。 24 众领袖和勇士,以及大卫王的众子,都顺服所罗门王。 25 耶和华使所罗门在以色列众人面前非常尊大,又赐给他君王的威严,胜过在他以前所有的以色列王。
大卫逝世
26 耶西的儿子大卫作全以色列的王。 27 大卫作王统治以色列的日子共四十年;他在希伯仑作王七年,在耶路撒冷作王三十三年。 28 大卫年纪老迈,寿数满足,享尽富足和尊荣才去世;他的儿子所罗门接续他作王。 29 大卫王一生始末的事迹,都记在撒母耳先见的书上、拿单先知的书上和迦得先见的书上。 30 还有他治理的一切国事,他的英勇事迹,以及在他身上和以色列并各地列国发生的事迹,都记在这些书上。

New International Version
Gifts for Building the Temple
29 Then King David said to the whole assembly: “My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen, is young and inexperienced.(A) The task is great, because this palatial structure is not for man but for the Lord God. 2 With all my resources I have provided for the temple of my God—gold(B) for the gold work, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron and wood for the wood, as well as onyx for the settings, turquoise,[a](C) stones of various colors, and all kinds of fine stone and marble—all of these in large quantities.(D) 3 Besides, in my devotion to the temple of my God I now give my personal treasures of gold and silver for the temple of my God, over and above everything I have provided(E) for this holy temple: 4 three thousand talents[b] of gold (gold of Ophir)(F) and seven thousand talents[c] of refined silver,(G) for the overlaying of the walls of the buildings, 5 for the gold work and the silver work, and for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now, who is willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord today?”
6 Then the leaders of families, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials(H) in charge of the king’s work gave willingly.(I) 7 They(J) gave toward the work on the temple of God five thousand talents[d] and ten thousand darics[e] of gold, ten thousand talents[f] of silver, eighteen thousand talents[g] of bronze and a hundred thousand talents[h] of iron. 8 Anyone who had precious stones(K) gave them to the treasury of the temple of the Lord in the custody of Jehiel the Gershonite.(L) 9 The people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given freely and wholeheartedly(M) to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.
David’s Prayer
10 David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying,
“Praise be to you, Lord,
the God of our father Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
11 Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power(N)
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.(O)
Yours, Lord, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.(P)
12 Wealth and honor(Q) come from you;
you are the ruler(R) of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.
13 Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name.
14 “But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this?(S) Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.(T) 15 We are foreigners and strangers(U) in your sight, as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow,(V) without hope. 16 Lord our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you. 17 I know, my God, that you test the heart(W) and are pleased with integrity. All these things I have given willingly and with honest intent. And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you.(X) 18 Lord, the God of our fathers Abraham, Isaac and Israel, keep these desires and thoughts in the hearts of your people forever, and keep their hearts loyal to you. 19 And give my son Solomon the wholehearted devotion(Y) to keep your commands, statutes and decrees(Z) and to do everything to build the palatial structure for which I have provided.”(AA)
20 Then David said to the whole assembly, “Praise the Lord your God.” So they all praised the Lord, the God of their fathers; they bowed down, prostrating themselves before the Lord and the king.
Solomon Acknowledged as King(AB)
21 The next day they made sacrifices to the Lord and presented burnt offerings to him:(AC) a thousand bulls, a thousand rams and a thousand male lambs, together with their drink offerings, and other sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.(AD) 22 They ate and drank with great joy(AE) in the presence of the Lord that day.
Then they acknowledged Solomon son of David as king a second time, anointing him before the Lord to be ruler and Zadok(AF) to be priest. 23 So Solomon sat(AG) on the throne(AH) of the Lord as king in place of his father David. He prospered and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the officers and warriors, as well as all of King David’s sons,(AI) pledged their submission to King Solomon.
25 The Lord highly exalted(AJ) Solomon in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him royal splendor(AK) such as no king over Israel ever had before.(AL)
The Death of David(AM)
26 David son of Jesse was king(AN) over all Israel.(AO) 27 He ruled over Israel forty years—seven in Hebron(AP) and thirty-three in Jerusalem.(AQ) 28 He died(AR) at a good old age, having enjoyed long life, wealth and honor. His son Solomon succeeded him as king.(AS)
29 As for the events of King David’s reign, from beginning to end, they are written in the records of Samuel the seer,(AT) the records of Nathan(AU) the prophet and the records of Gad(AV) the seer, 30 together with the details of his reign and power, and the circumstances that surrounded him and Israel and the kingdoms of all the other lands.

King James Version
29 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.
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.
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.
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:
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?
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
11 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.
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.
13 Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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:
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.
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.
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:
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.
23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.
24 And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king.
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.
26 Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
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.
28 And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.
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,
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.

Chapter 29
Offerings for the Temple. 1 King David then said to the whole assembly: “My son Solomon, whom alone God has chosen, is still young and inexperienced; the work, however, is great, for this palace is not meant for human beings, but for the Lord God.(A) 2 For this reason I have stored up for the house of my God, as far as I was able, gold for what will be made of gold, silver for what will be made of silver, bronze for what will be made of bronze, iron for what will be made of iron, wood for what will be made of wood, onyx stones and settings for them, carnelian and mosaic stones, every other kind of precious stone, and great quantities of marble.(B) 3 But now, because of the delight I take in the house of my God, in addition to all that I stored up for the holy house, I give to the house of my God my personal fortune in gold and silver: 4 three thousand talents of Ophir gold, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the rooms,(C) 5 for the various utensils to be made of gold and silver, and for every work that is to be done by artisans. Now, who else will contribute generously and consecrate themselves this day to the Lord?”(D)
6 Then the heads of the families, the tribal commanders of Israel, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and those who had command of the king’s affairs came forward willingly(E) 7 and contributed for the service of the house of God five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of bronze, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.(F) 8 Those who had precious stones gave them into the keeping of Jehiel the Gershonite for the treasury of the house of the Lord.(G) 9 The people rejoiced over these free-will offerings, for they had been contributed to the Lord wholeheartedly. King David also rejoiced greatly.(H)
David’s Prayer. 10 Then David blessed the Lord in the sight of the whole assembly. David said:
“Blessed are you, Lord,
God of Israel our father,
from eternity to eternity.
11 Yours, Lord, are greatness and might,
majesty, victory, and splendor.
For all in heaven and on earth is yours;
yours, Lord, is kingship;
you are exalted as head over all.
12 Riches and glory are from you,
and you have dominion over all.
In your hand are power and might;
it is yours to give greatness and strength to all.(I)
13 Therefore, our God, we give you thanks
and we praise the majesty of your name.
14 “But who am I, and who are my people, that we should have the means to contribute so freely? For everything is from you, and what we give is what we have from you. 15 For before you we are strangers and travelers, like all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without a future.(J) 16 Lord our God, all this wealth that we have brought together to build you a house for your holy name comes from you and is entirely yours. 17 I know, my God, that you put hearts to the test and that you take pleasure in integrity. With a whole heart I have willingly given all these things, and now with joy I have seen your people here present also giving to you generously. 18 Lord, God of our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Israel,(K) keep such thoughts in the hearts and minds of your people forever, and direct their hearts toward you. 19 Give to my son Solomon a wholehearted desire to keep your commandments, precepts, and statutes, that he may carry out all these plans and build the palace for which I have made preparation.”
20 Then David told the whole assembly, “Now bless the Lord your God!” And the whole assembly blessed the Lord, the God of their ancestors, bowing down in homage before the Lord and before the king. 21 On the following day they brought sacrifices and burnt offerings to the Lord, a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, together with their libations and many other sacrifices for all Israel; 22 and on that day they ate and drank in the Lord’s presence with great rejoicing.
Solomon Anointed. Then for a second time[a] they proclaimed David’s son Solomon king, and they anointed him for the Lord as ruler, and Zadok as priest. 23 Thereafter Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king succeeding his father David; he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.(L) 24 All the commanders and warriors, and also all the other sons of King David, swore allegiance to King Solomon. 25 And the Lord exalted Solomon greatly in the eyes of all Israel, giving him a glorious reign such as had not been enjoyed by any king over Israel before him.(M)
David’s Death. 26 Thus David, the son of Jesse, had reigned over all Israel. 27 He was king over Israel for forty years: he was king seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.(N) 28 He died at a ripe old age, rich in years and wealth and glory, and his son Solomon succeeded him as king.(O)
29 Now the deeds of King David, first and last, are recorded in the history of Samuel the seer, the history of Nathan the prophet, and the history of Gad the seer,(P) 30 together with the particulars of his reign and valor, and of the events that affected him and all Israel and all the kingdoms of the earth.
