Ang mga Kaloob para sa Templo
29 Ipinahayag(A) ni Haring David sa buong kapulungan, “Ang anak kong si Solomon na pinili ng Diyos upang humalili sa akin ay bata pa at walang sapat na karanasan. Napakalaki ng gawaing kakaharapin niya, sapagkat ang gagawin niya ay hindi isang palasyo para sa tao kundi Templo para sa Panginoong Yahweh. 2 Dahil dito, sinikap kong magtipon ng mga gagamitin para sa Templo ng aking Diyos tulad ng ginto, pilak, tanso, bakal at kahoy. Napakarami ng inihanda kong batong onise at iba pang mahahalagang batong pampalamuti, at lahat ng uri ng mahahalagang bato at marmol. 3 Hindi lang iyan, pati na ang sarili kong pilak at ginto ay inilaan ko na rin sa gawaing ito, sapagkat kasiyahan kong magkaroon ng Templo ang aking Diyos. 4 May nakalaan akong 105,000 kilong ginto na mula pa sa Ofir, at 245,000 kilong purong pilak na ididikit sa mga dingding ng Templo, 5 at sa iba pang bagay na gagawin ng mga mahuhusay na platero. Sino sa inyo ngayon ang kusang-loob na magbibigay para kay Yahweh?”
6 Sumang-ayon agad ang mga pinuno ng mga sambahayan, ang mga pinuno ng mga lipi, ang mga pinuno ng mga hukbo at ang mga katiwala ng hari. 7 Kusang-loob silang nagbigay, at ang natipon para sa gagawing templo ay 175,000 kilong ginto, 350,000 kilong pilak, 630,000 kilong tanso, at 3,500,000 kilong bakal. 8 Ipinagkaloob nila ang kanilang mahahalagang bato sa kabang-yaman ng Templo ni Yahweh na nasa pamamahala ni Jehiel na mula sa angkan ni Gershon. 9 Masayang-masaya ang mga tao sa kanilang mga kusang-loob na panghandog kay Yahweh, at labis din itong ikinatuwa ni Haring David.
Pinuri ni David si Yahweh
10 Sa harapan ng mga tao'y tuwang-tuwa si David na nagpuri kay Yahweh. Sinabi niya, “Purihin kayo magpakailanman, Yahweh, ang Diyos ni Israel na aming ama. 11 Sa(B) inyo ang kadakilaan, ang kapangyarihan, ang karangalan at ang pagtatagumpay sapagkat inyo ang lahat ng nasa langit at nasa lupa. Sa inyo ang kaharian at kayo ang dakila sa lahat. 12 Sa inyo nagmumula ang kayamanan at ang karangalan at kayo ang naghahari sa lahat. Taglay ninyo ang kapangyarihan at kadakilaan, at kayo ang nagbibigay ng lakas at kapangyarihan sa lahat. 13 Pinasasalamatan namin kayo, O Diyos, at pinupuri ang inyong maluwalhating pangalan.
14 “Ngunit sino ako at ang bayang ito? Buong puso kaming nagkakaloob sapagkat ang lahat ng ito ay galing sa inyo at ibinabalik lamang namin. 15 Tulad ng aming mga ninuno, kami nga'y mga dayuhan at naglalakbay lamang. Ang buhay namin sa daigdig na ito ay parang anino at pansamantala lamang. 16 O Yahweh na aming Diyos, ang lahat ng kayamanang ito na aming ibinigay para ipagpagawa ng inyong tahanan ay sa inyo rin nagmula. 17 Alam kong sinasaliksik ninyo ang puso ng bawat tao, at natutuwa kayo sa mga matuwid. O Diyos, buong puso kong ipinagkakaloob sa inyo ang lahat ng ito. Nasaksihan ko rin ang buong puso at may kagalakang pagkakaloob ng inyong bayan na narito ngayon. 18 Yahweh, Diyos nina Abraham, Isaac at Jacob na aming mga ninuno, panatilihin ninyo sa isipan ng inyong bayan ang mga layuning ito, at akayin ninyo silang palapit sa inyo. 19 Tulungan ninyo ang anak kong si Solomon na maging tapat sa pagsunod sa inyong mga utos at tuntunin upang maitayo niya ang Templong aking pinaghandaan.”
20 At sinabi ni David sa sambayanan, “Purihin ninyo ang Diyos ninyong si Yahweh!” Pinuri nga ng buong kapulungan si Yahweh, ang Diyos ng kanilang mga ninuno. Yumuko ang lahat, sumamba kay Yahweh, at nagbigay-galang sa hari. 21 Kinabukasan, ang dinala nilang handog na susunugin ay 1,000 toro, 1,000 tupang lalaki, 1,000 kordero at mga alak na handog, at napakaraming handog para sa buong Israel. 22 Masasaya silang nagsalu-salo sa harapan ni Yahweh noong araw na iyon.
Minsan pa nilang ipinahayag na si Solomon na anak ni David ay hari, at binuhusan ito ng langis sa pangalan ni Yahweh. Si Zadok naman ay hinirang bilang pari. 23 Mula(C) noon, umupo si Solomon sa tronong itinatag ni Yahweh bilang kahalili ng kanyang amang si David. Naging matagumpay siya at sumunod sa kanya ang buong Israel. 24 Nanumpa ng katapatan kay Haring Solomon ang mga pinuno at mandirigma, pati na ang iba pang anak ni Haring David. 25 Binigyan ni Yahweh si Solomon ng dakilang karangalan at katanyagang higit sa mga naging hari sa Israel.
Ang Buod ng Paghahari ni David
26 Si David na anak ni Jesse ay naghari sa buong Israel. 27 Apatnapung(D) taon siyang naghari: pitong taon sa Hebron, at tatlumpu't tatlong taon naman sa Jerusalem. 28 Nabuhay siya nang matagal, at namatay na mayaman at marangal. Si Solomon ang humalili sa kanya bilang hari. 29 Ang lahat ng pangyayari sa buong panahon ng paghahari ni David ay nakasulat sa mga aklat ng mga propetang sina Samuel, Natan at Gad. 30 Sa mga aklat na iyon nakasulat kung paano siya namahala, gaano kalawak ang kanyang kapangyarihan at ang mga nangyari sa kanya sa Israel, at sa lahat ng mga kaharian sa paligid.
1 Chronicles 29
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.
