CHÚA Hiện Ra Với Sa-lô-môn Lần Thứ Nhì
9 Khi Sa-lô-môn đã xây dựng đền thờ cho CHÚA, cung điện hoàng gia và những dinh thự mà vua muốn xây cất xong, 2 thì CHÚA hiện ra với Sa-lô-môn lần thứ nhì, như Ngài đã hiện ra với vua tại Ga-ba-ôn. 3 CHÚA phán với vua rằng: “Ta đã nghe lời cầu nguyện và lời cầu xin của ngươi, là những lời ngươi đã trình dâng trước mặt Ta. Ta đã biệt ra thánh ngôi đền mà ngươi đã xây và đặt danh Ta tại nơi đó đời đời. Mắt Ta và lòng Ta sẽ hằng ở đó luôn luôn. 4 Riêng phần ngươi, nếu ngươi bước đi trước mặt Ta như Đa-vít cha ngươi đã đi, lấy lòng trọn lành và ngay thẳng làm theo mọi điều Ta đã truyền cho ngươi, vâng giữ các luật lệ và mạng lịnh Ta, 5 thì Ta sẽ lập ngôi nước ngươi trên Y-sơ-ra-ên được vững vàng đến đời đời, như Ta đã hứa với Đa-vít, cha ngươi, rằng: ‘Ngươi sẽ chẳng hề thiếu người kế vị trên ngôi của Y-sơ-ra-ên.’
6 Nhưng nếu ngươi hoặc con cháu ngươi quay khỏi Ta, không giữ điều răn và luật lệ Ta đã truyền cho các ngươi, nhưng đi phục vụ và thờ phượng các thần khác, 7 thì Ta sẽ dứt bỏ Y-sơ-ra-ên khỏi xứ mà Ta đã ban cho họ; Ta sẽ loại bỏ ngôi đền mà Ta đã biệt ra thánh cho danh Ta, và dân Y-sơ-ra-ên sẽ thành một câu tục ngữ và trò giễu cợt giữa các dân. 8 Ngôi đền này sẽ trở thành một đống đổ nát hoang tàn; những ai đi qua đó sẽ kinh ngạc, sẽ thắc mắc mà hỏi rằng: ‘Tại sao CHÚA đã làm điều ấy cho xứ này và cho dân này?’ 9 Rồi người ta sẽ đáp rằng: ‘Bởi vì họ đã lìa bỏ CHÚA là Đức Chúa Trời của họ, là Đấng đã đem tổ phụ họ ra khỏi xứ Ai-cập, mà bây giờ họ lại đi theo các thần khác, thờ phượng và phục vụ các thần ấy, cho nên CHÚA đã khiến tai vạ này đến trên họ.’ ”
10 Cuối hai mươi năm, là thời gian Sa-lô-môn đã xây xong hai công trình kiến trúc, tức là đền thờ cho CHÚA và cung điện hoàng gia, 11 vì vua Hi-ram của Ty-rơ đã cung cấp cho Sa-lô-môn gỗ bá hương, gỗ tùng, và vàng tuỳ ý vua muốn, nên vua Sa-lô-môn đã ban cho Hi-ram hai mươi thành trong địa phận Ga-li-lê. 12 Nhưng khi Hi-ram đến Ty-rơ để quan sát các thành mà Sa-lô-môn đã ban cho mình, thì vua ấy chẳng hài lòng. 13 Hi-ram nói: “Những thành mà vua cho tôi là những thành gì vậy, thưa vua?” Vậy họ gọi xứ đó là Ca-bun cho đến ngày nay. 14 Dầu vậy Hi-ram cũng gởi cho vua một trăm hai mươi ta-lâng vàng.
Các Hoạt Động Khác Của Sa-lô-môn
15 Đây là ký thuật về việc cưỡng bách lao động mà vua Sa-lô-môn đã trưng dụng dân công để xây đền cho CHÚA, cung điện cho vua, các công sự phòng thủ, tường thành Giê-ru-sa-lem, Hát-so, Mê-ghi-đô, Ghê-xe 16 (Pha-ra-ôn là vua của Ai-cập đã đi lên chiếm lấy Ghê-xe, phóng hỏa đốt thành, tiêu diệt dân Ca-na-an cư ngụ trong thành, rồi ban thành ấy làm của hồi môn cho con gái mình, là vợ Sa-lô-môn. 17 Vì thế Sa-lô-môn phải xây lại thành Ghê-xe), phần dưới của thành Bết Hô-rôn, 18 Ba-lát, Tát-mốt trong đồng hoang, thuộc địa phận của vua, 19 và tất cả những thành làm kho tiếp liệu, những thành cho đạo quân có các xe chiến mã, những thành cho kỵ binh, và tất cả những gì Sa-lô-môn muốn xây cất, ở Giê-ru-sa-lem, ở Li-ban, và trong mọi xứ dưới vương quyền của vua.
20 Tất cả những người còn sót lại của các dân A-mô-rít, Hê-tít, Phê-rê-sít, Hê-vít, và Giê-bu-sít, tức là những người không phải dân Y-sơ-ra-ên. 21 Họ là con cháu của những người mà dân Y-sơ-ra-ên không thể tuyệt diệt, còn sót lại trong xứ. Sa-lô-môn bắt những người ấy làm nô dịch để cung cấp nhân công lao động, và họ làm như vậy cho đến ngày nay. 22 Nhưng dân Y-sơ-ra-ên thì Sa-lô-môn không bắt ai làm nô lệ. Họ là quân lính, quan quyền, tướng lãnh, sĩ quan, và những người chỉ huy các đạo quân có các xe chiến mã và kỵ binh. 23 Sau đây là số quan chức mà Sa-lô-môn đặt lên để cai quản những người thực hiện các công trình xây cất của vua: năm trăm năm mươi người.
24 Sau khi công chúa Pha-ra-ôn từ thành Đa-vít dọn lên ở trong cung điện mà Sa-lô-môn đã xây cất cho nàng, vua bèn cho xây cất các công sự phòng thủ.
25 Mỗi năm ba lần Sa-lô-môn lên dâng tế lễ thiêu và tế lễ cầu an trên bàn thờ mà vua đã xây cho CHÚA, vua dâng hương trước mặt CHÚA. Như vậy, vua đã hoàn tất công trình xây cất đền thờ.
Hoạt Động Thương Mại Của Sa-lô-môn
26 Vua Sa-lô-môn cũng cho đóng một đoàn tàu tại Ê-xi-ôn Ghê-be, gần Ê-lốt, nơi bờ Hồng Hải, thuộc xứ Ê-đôm. 27 Hi-ram sai các tôi tớ và đoàn tàu của mình, tức những thủy thủ thông thạo hàng hải, đi cùng các tôi tớ của Sa-lô-môn. 28 Họ đến Ô-phia và đem về bốn trăm hai mươi ta-lâng vàng, rồi đem giao nộp cho Vua Sa-lô-môn.

The Lord Appears to Solomon(A)
9 When Solomon had finished(B) building the temple of the Lord and the royal palace, and had achieved all he had desired to do, 2 the Lord appeared(C) to him a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon. 3 The Lord said to him:
“I have heard(D) the prayer and plea you have made before me; I have consecrated this temple, which you have built, by putting my Name(E) there forever. My eyes(F) and my heart will always be there.
4 “As for you, if you walk before me faithfully with integrity of heart(G) and uprightness, as David(H) your father did, and do all I command and observe my decrees and laws,(I) 5 I will establish(J) your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father when I said, ‘You shall never fail(K) to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’
6 “But if you[a] or your descendants turn away(L) from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you[b] and go off to serve other gods(M) and worship them, 7 then I will cut off Israel from the land(N) I have given them and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name.(O) Israel will then become a byword(P) and an object of ridicule(Q) among all peoples. 8 This temple will become a heap of rubble. All[c] who pass by will be appalled(R) and will scoff and say, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’(S) 9 People will answer,(T) ‘Because they have forsaken(U) the Lord their God, who brought their ancestors out of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them—that is why the Lord brought all this disaster(V) on them.’”
Solomon’s Other Activities(W)
10 At the end of twenty years, during which Solomon built these two buildings—the temple of the Lord and the royal palace— 11 King Solomon gave twenty towns in Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, because Hiram had supplied him with all the cedar and juniper and gold(X) he wanted. 12 But when Hiram went from Tyre to see the towns that Solomon had given him, he was not pleased with them. 13 “What kind of towns are these you have given me, my brother?” he asked. And he called them the Land of Kabul,[d](Y) a name they have to this day. 14 Now Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents[e] of gold.(Z)
15 Here is the account of the forced labor King Solomon conscripted(AA) to build the Lord’s temple, his own palace, the terraces,[f](AB) the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor,(AC) Megiddo and Gezer.(AD) 16 (Pharaoh king of Egypt had attacked and captured Gezer. He had set it on fire. He killed its Canaanite inhabitants and then gave it as a wedding gift to his daughter,(AE) Solomon’s wife. 17 And Solomon rebuilt Gezer.) He built up Lower Beth Horon,(AF) 18 Baalath,(AG) and Tadmor[g] in the desert, within his land, 19 as well as all his store cities(AH) and the towns for his chariots(AI) and for his horses[h]—whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon and throughout all the territory he ruled.
20 There were still people left from the Amorites, Hittites,(AJ) Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites(AK) (these peoples were not Israelites). 21 Solomon conscripted the descendants(AL) of all these peoples remaining in the land—whom the Israelites could not exterminate[i](AM)—to serve as slave labor,(AN) as it is to this day. 22 But Solomon did not make slaves(AO) of any of the Israelites; they were his fighting men, his government officials, his officers, his captains, and the commanders of his chariots and charioteers. 23 They were also the chief officials(AP) in charge of Solomon’s projects—550 officials supervising those who did the work.
24 After Pharaoh’s daughter(AQ) had come up from the City of David to the palace Solomon had built for her, he constructed the terraces.(AR)
25 Three(AS) times a year Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on the altar he had built for the Lord, burning incense before the Lord along with them, and so fulfilled the temple obligations.
26 King Solomon also built ships(AT) at Ezion Geber,(AU) which is near Elath(AV) in Edom, on the shore of the Red Sea.[j] 27 And Hiram sent his men—sailors(AW) who knew the sea—to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s men. 28 They sailed to Ophir(AX) and brought back 420 talents[k] of gold,(AY) which they delivered to King Solomon.

9 And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do,
2 That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had 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 put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:
5 Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
6 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will 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 out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:
8 And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, 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, who brought forth 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 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the king's house,
11 (Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire,) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.
13 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.
14 And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.
15 And this is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised; for to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a present unto his daughter, Solomon's wife.
17 And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the nether,
18 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
19 And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
20 And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel,
21 Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Solomon levy a tribute of bondservice unto this day.
22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon 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 chief of the officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David unto her house which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Millo.
25 And three times in 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. So he finished the house.
26 And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Eziongeber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.
27 And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.

The Lord Appears to Solomon
9 (A)As soon as Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord (B)and the king's house and (C)all that Solomon desired to build, 2 (D)the Lord appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon. 3 And the Lord said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your plea, which you have made before me. I have consecrated this house that you have built, (E)by putting my name there forever. (F)My eyes and my heart will be there for all time. 4 And as for you, if you will (G)walk before me, (H)as David your father walked, with integrity of heart and uprightness, doing according to all that I have commanded you, and keeping my statutes and my rules, 5 (I)then I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.’ 6 (J)But if you turn aside from following me, you or your children, and do not keep my commandments and my statutes that I have set before you, but go and serve other gods and worship them, 7 (K)then I will cut off Israel from the land that I have given them, (L)and the house that I have consecrated for my name I will cast out of my sight, (M)and Israel will become a proverb and a byword among all peoples. 8 And this house will become a heap of ruins.[a] Everyone passing by it will be astonished and will hiss, and they will say, (N)‘Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house?’ 9 Then they will say, ‘Because (O)they abandoned the Lord their God who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt and laid hold on other gods and worshiped them and served them. Therefore the Lord has brought all this disaster on them.’”
Solomon's Other Acts
10 (P)At the end of (Q)twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord and the king's house, 11 and Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress timber and gold, as much as he desired, King Solomon gave to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee. 12 But when Hiram came from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, they did not please him. 13 Therefore he said, “What kind of cities are these that you have given me, my brother?” So they are called the land of (R)Cabul to this day. 14 Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents[b] of gold.
15 And this is the account of (S)the forced labor that King Solomon drafted to build the house of the Lord and his own house and (T)the Millo and the wall of Jerusalem and (U)Hazor and (V)Megiddo and Gezer 16 (Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and captured Gezer and burned it with fire, and had killed (W)the Canaanites who lived in the city, and had given it as dowry to (X)his daughter, Solomon's wife; 17 so Solomon rebuilt Gezer) and (Y)Lower Beth-horon 18 and Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land of Judah,[c] 19 and all the store cities that Solomon had, and (Z)the cities for his chariots, and the cities for (AA)his horsemen, and whatever Solomon (AB)desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion. 20 All the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the people of Israel— 21 (AC)their descendants who were left after them in the land, (AD)whom the people of Israel were unable to devote to destruction[d]—(AE)these Solomon drafted to be (AF)slaves, and so they are to this day. 22 But (AG)of the people of Israel Solomon made no slaves. They were the soldiers, they were his officials, his commanders, his captains, his chariot commanders and his horsemen.
23 These were the chief officers who were over Solomon's work: (AH)550 (AI)who had charge of the people who carried on the work.
24 But (AJ)Pharaoh's daughter went up from the city of David to (AK)her own house that Solomon had built for her. (AL)Then he built (AM)the Millo.
25 Three times a year Solomon used to offer up burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar that he built to the Lord, making offerings with it[e] before the Lord. So he finished the house.
26 King Solomon built a fleet of ships at (AN)Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom. 27 And Hiram sent (AO)with the fleet his servants, seamen who were familiar with the sea, together with the servants of Solomon. 28 And they went to (AP)Ophir and brought from there gold, 420 talents, and they brought it to King Solomon.
