Nagpakita ang Dios kay Solomon(A)

Natapos ni Solomon ang pagpatindog sang templo sang Ginoo kag sang iya palasyo, kag sang iban pa nga iya ginplano nga himuon. Dayon nagpakita liwat ang Ginoo sa iya pareho sang iya ginhimo sadto sa Gibeon. Nagsiling ang Ginoo sa iya, “Nabatian ko ang imo pangamuyo kag pangabay sa akon. Ining templo nga ginpatindog mo ginpili ko bilang lugar nga sa diin padunggan ako hasta san-o. Bantayan ko ini kag atipanon permi. Kag ikaw, kon magkabuhi ka nga masaligan kag matarong sa akon atubangan pareho sang imo amay nga si David, kag kon himuon mo ang tanan nga ginapahimo ko sa imo kag tumanon ang akon mga pagsulundan kag mga sugo, paharion ko sa Israel ang imo mga kaliwat hasta san-o. Ginpromisa ko ini sa imo amay nga si David sang ginsilingan ko siya, ‘Indi ka madulaan sang kaliwat nga magahari sa Israel.’ Pero kon magtalikod kamo ukon ang inyo mga kaliwat sa akon kag indi magtuman sang akon mga sugo kag mga pagsulundan nga ginhatag ko sa inyo, kag kon mag-alagad kamo kag magsimba sa iban nga mga dios, pahalinon ko kamo sa duta nga ginhatag ko sa inyo, kag sikwayon ko ining templo nga ginpili ko nga lugar nga sa diin padunggan ako. Dayon yagutaon kag kadlawan sang tanan nga tawo ang Israel. Kag bisan matahom kag bantog ining templo, gub-on ko ini. Makibot kag matingala gid ang tanan nga magaagi diri, kag magayaguta sila nga nagasiling, ‘Ngaa ginhimo ini sang Ginoo sa sini nga duta kag sa sini nga templo?’ Magasabat ang iban, ‘Tungod kay ginsikway nila ang Ginoo nga ila Dios nga nagpaguwa sang ila mga katigulangan sa Egipto, kag nag-alagad sila kag nagsimba sa iban nga mga dios. Amo ina nga ginpadal-an sila sang Ginoo sang sina nga mga kalalat-an.’ ”

Ang Iban pa nga Nahuman ni Solomon(B)

10 Pagkatapos sang 20 ka tuig nga pagpatindog ni Solomon sang duha ka bilding—ang templo sang Ginoo kag ang palasyo, 11 ginhatag niya ang 20 ka banwa sa Galilea kay Haring Hiram sang Tyre. Ginhimo niya ini tungod kay ginsuplayan siya ni Hiram sang tanan nga kahoy nga sedro kag sipres, kag sang bulawan nga iya ginkinahanglan. 12 Pero sang nagkadto si Hiram sa Galilea halin sa Tyre sa pagtan-aw sang mga banwa nga ginhatag sa iya ni Solomon, wala siya malipay sini. 13 Gani nagsiling siya kay Solomon, “Utod ko, ano nga klase sang mga banwa ining ginhatag mo sa akon?” Gintawag ni Hiram ato nga mga duta nga Cabul,[a] kag amo man gihapon ang tawag sini hasta subong. 14 Nagpadala sadto si Hiram kay Solomon sing mga lima ka tonelada nga bulawan.

15 Amo ini ang estorya parte sa pagtipon ni Haring Solomon sang mga tawo nga iya ginpilit nga mag-obra sa pagpatindog sang templo sang Ginoo kag sang iya palasyo, sa pagtampok sang manubo nga parte sang banwa,[b] sa pagpalig-on sang pader sang Jerusalem, kag sa pagpatindog liwat sang mga banwa sang Hazor, Megido, kag Gezer. 16 (Ining Gezer ginsalakay kag gin-agaw sang Faraon nga hari sang Egipto. Ginsunog niya ini kag ginpamatay ang mga pumuluyo sini nga mga Canaanhon. Ginhatag niya ini nga banwa sa iya anak nga babayi bilang regalo sa iya kasal kay Solomon. 17 Kag ginpatindog liwat ni Solomon ining Gezer.) Ginpatindog man ni Solomon ang idalom nga bahin sang Bet Horon, 18 ang Baalat, ang Tamar[c] nga ara sa desierto nga sakop sang iya duta, 19 kag ang tanan nga banwa nga bulutangan sang iya mga bodega, mga karwahe, kag mga kabayo. Ginpatindog niya ang tanan nga luyag niya patindugon sa Jerusalem, sa Lebanon, kag sa tanan nga duta nga sakop niya.

20-21 May mga katawhan pa nga indi Israelinhon nga nabilin sa Israel. Sila amo ang mga kaliwat sang mga Amornon, Hithanon, Periznon, Hivhanon kag mga Jebusnon, nga wala malaglag sing bug-os sang mga Israelinhon sang pag-agaw nila sang duta sang Canaan. Ginhimo sila ni Solomon nga mga ulipon kag ginpilit nga mag-obra, kag nagpabilin sila nga ulipon hasta subong. 22 Pero wala paghimua ni Solomon nga ulipon ang bisan sin-o nga Israelinhon. Sa baylo, ginhimo niya sila nga iya mga soldado, mga opisyal, mga pangulo sang mga soldado, mga kumander sang iya mga karwahe, kag mga manugkabayo. 23 Ang 550 sa ila ginhimo ni Solomon nga mga opisyal nga nagadumala sang mga nagaobra sa iya mga proyekto.

24 Sang matapos na ang palasyo nga ginpahimo ni Solomon para sa iya asawa nga anak sang hari sang Egipto,[d] ginsaylo niya ang iya asawa didto halin sa Banwa ni David.[e] Pagkatapos ginpatampukan niya ang manubo nga parte sang banwa.[f]

25 Tatlo ka beses kada tuig, nagahalad si Solomon sang mga halad nga ginasunog kag mga halad nga para sa maayo nga relasyon didto sa halaran nga iya ginpahimo para sa Ginoo. Nagasunog man siya sang insenso sa presensya sang Ginoo.

Gani natapos ni Solomon ang pagpatindog sang templo.

26 Nagpahimo pa gid si Solomon sang mga barko sa Ezion Geber, malapit sa Elat[g] nga sakop sang Edom, sa baybayon sang Mapula nga Dagat. 27 Nagpadala si Hiram sang mga hanas nga mga marino sa pagpanakayon upod sa mga tinawo ni Solomon. 28 Nagbiyahe sila sa Ofir; kag sang pagbalik nila may dala sila nga mga 15 ka tonelada nga bulawan, kag gindala nila ini kay Haring Solomon.

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,

That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.

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.

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:

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.

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:

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:

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?

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

(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, (D)the Lord appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon. 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. 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, (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.’ (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, (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. 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?’ 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.
