1 Reyes 9

Diodati 1885

1ORA, dopo che Salomone ebbe finito di edificar la Casa del Signore, e la casa reale, e tutto ciò ch'egli ebbe desiderio e volontà di fare,

2il Signore, gli apparve la seconda volta, come gli era apparito in Gabaon;

3e gli disse: Io ho esaudita la tua orazione e la tua supplicazione, che tu hai fatta davanti a me; io ho santificata questa Casa, la quale tu hai edificata per mettervi il mio Nome in perpetuo; e gli occhi miei, e il cuor mio saranno del continuo là.

4E quant'è a te, se tu cammini nel mio cospetto, come è camminato Davide, tuo padre, in integrità di cuore, ed in dirittura, per far secondo tutto quello che io ti ho comandato; e se tu osservi i miei statuti e le mie leggi;

5io altresì stabilirò il trono del tuo reame sopra Israele, in perpetuo, come io promisi a Davide, tuo padre, dicendo: Giammai non ti verrà meno uomo che segga in sul trono d'Israele.

6Ma, se pur voi ed i vostri figliuoli vi rivolgete indietro da me, e non osservate i miei comandamenti e i miei statuti, i quali io vi ho proposti; anzi andate, e servite ad altri dii, e li adorate;

7io distruggerò Israele d'in su la terra che io gli ho data, e gitterò via dal mio cospetto la Casa, la quale io ho santificata al mio Nome; ed Israele sarà in proverbio ed in favola fra tutti i popoli.

8E quant'è a questa Casa, che sarà stata eccelsa, chiunque passerà presso di essa stupirà, e sufolerà; e si dirà: Perchè ha fatto il Signore in questo modo a questo paese ed a questa Casa?

9E si risponderà: Perciocchè hanno abbandonato il Signore Iddio loro, il qual trasse i lor padri fuor del paese di Egitto; e si sono appresi ad altri dii, e li hanno adorati, e hanno loro servito; perciò il Signore ha fatto venire sopra loro tutto questo male.

10ORA in capo de' venti anni, ne' quali Salomone edificò le due case, la Casa del Signore, e la casa reale,

11Hiram, re di Tiro, avendo fatto presente a Salomone di legname di cedro, e d'abete, e d'oro, ad ogni suo piacere, il re Salomone allora gli diede venti città nel paese di Galilea.

12Ed Hiram uscì di Tiro, per veder le città che Salomone gli avea date; ma non gli piacquero.

13E disse: Che città son queste che tu mi hai date, fratel mio? E le chiamò: Il paese di Cabul. E questo nome è restato loro fino a questo giorno.

14Or Hiram avea mandato al re centoventi talenti d'oro.

15Or questa fu la maniera che il re Salomone osservò nella levatadella gente, ch'egli fece per edificar la Casa del Signore, e la casa sua, e Millo, e le mura di Gerusalemme, ed Hasor, e Meghiddo, e Ghezer

16(Faraone, re di Egitto, era salito, ed avea preso Ghezer, e l'avea arsa col fuoco, ed avea uccisi i Cananei che abitavano nella città; poi l'avea data per un presente alla sua figliuola, moglie di Salomone;

17onde Salomone riedificò Ghezer), e Bethoron disotto,

18e Baalat, e Tadmor, nel deserto del paese,

19e tutte le città da magazzini di Salomone, e le città dove erano i carri, e dove stava la gente a cavallo; in somma, tutto quello che Salomone ebbe desiderio di edificare in Gerusalemme, e nel Libano, ed in tutto il paese della sua signoria.

20Egli levò, per esser tributario a fazioni personali, tutto il popolo rimasto degli Amorrei, degli Hittei, dei Ferizzei, degli Hivvei, e dei Gebusei, i quali non erano de' figliuoli d'Israele;

21cioè i lor figliuoli rimasti dopo loro nel paese, i quali i figliuoli d'Israele non aveano potuti distruggere; ed è durato infino a questo giorno.

22Ma Salomone non fece servo alcuno de' figliuoli d'Israele; anzi essi erano uomini di guerra, e suoi ministri, e suoi colonnelli, e suoi capitani, e capi de' suoi carri, e della sua cavalleria.

23Questo fu il numero de'capi de' commissari, che furono costituiti sopra l'opera di Salomone, cioè: cinquecencinquanta, i quali comandavano alla gente che lavorava all'opera.

24Ora la figliuola di Faraone non salì dalla città di Davide nella sua casa, che Salomone le avea edificata, se non allora ch'egli ebbe edificato Millo.

25E, dopo ch'egli ebbe finito di edificare la Casa, egli offeriva tre volte l'anno olocausti, e sacrificii da render grazie, sopra l'Altare ch'egli avea edificato al Signore; e faceva profumi in su quello ch'era nel cospetto del Signore.

26Il re Salomone fece ancora un navilio in Esion-gheber, ch'è presso di Elot, in sul lito del mar rosso, nel paese degl'Idumei.

27Ed Hiram mandò in quel navilio, co' servitori di Salomone, i suoi servitori marinari, intendenti dell'arte marinaresca.

28Ed essi, arrivati in Ofir, tolsero di là quattrocenventi talenti d'oro, i quali condussero al re Salomone.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y COMO Salomón hubo acabado la obra de la casa de Jehová, y la casa real, y todo lo que Salomón quiso hacer,

2Jehová apareció á Salomón la segunda vez, como le había aparecido en Gabaón.

3Y díjole Jehová: Yo he oído tu oración y tu ruego, que has hecho en mi presencia. Yo he santificado esta casa que tú has edificado, para poner mi nombre en ella para siempre; y en ella estarán mis ojos y mi corazón todos los días.

4Y si tú anduvieres delante de mí, como anduvo David tu padre, en integridad de corazón y en equidad, haciendo todas las cosas que yo te he mandado, y guardando mis estatutos y mis derechos,

5Yo afirmaré el trono de tu reino sobre Israel para siempre, como hablé á David tu padre, diciendo: No faltará de ti varón en el trono de Israel.

6Mas si obstinadamente os apartareis de mí vosotros y vuestros hijos, y no guardareis mis mandamientos y mis estatutos que yo he puesto delante de vosotros, sino que fuereis y sirviereis á dioses ajenos, y los adorareis;

7Yo cortaré á Israel de sobre la haz de la tierra que les he entregado; y esta casa que he santificado á mi nombre, yo la echaré de delante de mí, é Israel será por proverbio y fábula á todos los pueblos;

8Y esta casa que estaba en estima, cualquiera que pasare por ella se pasmará, y silbará, y dirá: ¿Por qué ha hecho así Jehová á esta tierra, y á esta casa?

9Y dirán: Por cuanto dejaron á Jehová su Dios, que había sacado á sus padres de tierra de Egipto, y echaron mano á dioses ajenos, y los adoraron, y los sirvieron: por eso ha traído Jehová sobre ellos todo aqueste mal.

10Y aconteció al cabo de veinte años, en que Salomón había edificado las dos casas, la casa de Jehová y la casa real,

11(Para las cuales Hiram rey de Tiro, había traído á Salomón madera de cedro y de haya, y cuanto oro él quiso), que el rey Salomón dió á Hiram veinte ciudades en tierra de Galilea.

12Y salió Hiram de Tiro para ver las ciudades que Salomón le había dado, y no le contentaron.

13Y dijo: ¿Qué ciudades son estas que me has dado, hermano? Y púsoles por nombre, la tierra de Cabul, hasta hoy.

14Y había Hiram enviado al rey ciento y veinte talentos de oro.

15Y esta es la razón del tributo que el rey Salomón impuso para edificar la casa de Jehová, y su casa, y á Millo, y el muro de Jerusalem, y á Hasor, y Megiddo, y Gezer.

16Faraón el rey de Egipto había subido y tomado á Gezer, y quemádola, y había muerto los Cananeos que habitaban la ciudad, y dádola en don á su hija la mujer de Salomón.

17Restauró pues Salomón á Gezer, y á la baja Beth-oron,

18Y á Baalath, y á Tadmor en tierra del desierto;

19Asimismo todas las ciudades donde Salomón tenía municiones, y las ciudades de los carros, y las ciudades de la gente de á caballo, y todo lo que Salomón deseó edificar en Jerusalem, en el Líbano, y en toda la tierra de su señorío.

20A todos los pueblos que quedaron de los Amorrheos, Hetheos, Pherezeos, Heveos, Jebuseos, que no fueron de los hijos de Israel;

21A sus hijos que quedaron en la tierra después de ellos, que los hijos de Israel no pudieron acabar, hizo Salomón que sirviesen con tributo hasta hoy.

22Mas á ninguno de los hijos de Israel impuso Salomón servicio, sino que eran hombres de guerra, ó sus criados, ó sus príncipes, ó sus capitanes, ó comandantes de sus carros, ó su gente de á caballo.

23Y los que Salomón había hecho jefes y prepósitos sobre las obras, eran quinientos y cincuenta, los cuales estaban sobre el pueblo que trabajaba en aquella obra.

24Y subió la hija de Faraón de la ciudad de David á su casa que Salomón le había edificado: entonces edificó él á Millo.

25Y ofrecía Salomón tres veces cada un año holocaustos y pacíficos sobre el altar que él edificó á Jehová, y quemaba perfumes sobre el que estaba delante de Jehová, después que la casa fué acabada.

26Hizo también el rey Salomón navíos en Ezión-geber, que es junto á Elath en la ribera del mar Bermejo, en la tierra de Edom.

27Y envió Hiram en ellos á sus siervos, marineros y diestros en la mar, con los siervos de Salomón:

28Los cuales fueron á Ophir, y tomaron de allí oro, cuatrocientos y veinte talentos, y trajéronlo al rey Salomón.

King James Version

1And 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,

2That the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.

3And 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.

4And 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:

5Then 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.

6But 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:

7Then 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:

8And 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?

9And 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.

10And 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.

12And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.

13And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.

14And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.

15And 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.

16For 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.

17And Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon the nether,

18And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

19And 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.

20And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel,

21Their 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.

22But 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.

23These 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.

24But 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.

25And 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.

26And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.

27And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

28And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.

World English Bible

1When Solomon had finished the building of the LORD’s house, the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

2The LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.

3The LORD said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before me. I have made this house holy, which you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

4As for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances,

5then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised to David your father, saying, ‘There shall not fail from you a man on the throne of Israel.’

6But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods and worship them,

7then I will cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and I will cast this house, which I have made holy for my name, out of my sight; and Israel will be a proverb and a byword among all peoples.

8Though this house is so high, yet everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss; and they will say, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this land and to this house?’

9and they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and embraced other gods, and worshiped them, and served them. Therefore the LORD has brought all this evil on them.’”

10At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the LORD’s house and the king’s house

11(now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and cypress trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

12Hiram came out of Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they didn’t please him.

13He said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” He called them the land of Cabul to this day.

14Hiram sent to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold.

15This is the reason of the forced labor which King Solomon conscripted: to build the LORD’s house, his own house, Millo, Jerusalem’s wall, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.

16Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, taken Gezer, burned it with fire, killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a wedding gift to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

17Solomon built in the land Gezer, Beth Horon the lower,

18Baalath, Tamar in the wilderness,

19all the storage cities that Solomon had, the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

20As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel—

21their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy—of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.

22But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, his servants, his princes, his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.

23These were the five hundred fifty chief officers who were over Solomon’s work, who ruled over the people who labored in the work.

24But Pharaoh’s daughter came up out of David’s city to her house which Solomon had built for her. Then he built Millo.

25Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD three times per year, burning incense with them on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.

26King Solomon made a fleet of ships in Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.

27Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

28They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to King Solomon.
