| 1 | And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him to a high degree. | ΚΑΙ ἐνίσχυσε Σαλωμὼν υἱὸς Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ, καὶ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς αὐτοῦ μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐμεγάλυνεν αὐτὸν εἰς ὕψος. |
| 2 | And Solomon gave orders to all Israel, to the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, and to the rulers, and to the judges of all Israel, and the heads of the families: | Καὶ εἶπε Σαλωμὼν πρὸς πάντα Ἰσραὴλ, τοῖς χιλιάρχοις, καὶ τοῖς ἑκατοντάρχοις, καὶ τοῖς κριταῖς, καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἄρχουσιν ἐναντίον Ἰσραὴλ τοῖς ἄρχουσι τῶν πατριῶν. |
| 3 | And he went with all the multitude to the high place of Gabaon, where was the tabernacle of the covenant of the Lord, which Moses the servant of God made, in the wilderness. | καὶ ἐπορεύθη Σαλωμὼν καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία εἰς τὴν ὑψηλὴν τὴν ἐν Γαβαὼν, οὗ ἐκεῖ ἦν ἡ σκηνὴ τοῦ μαρτυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἣν ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς παῖς Κυρίου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ. |
| 4 | For David had brought the ark of God from Cariathiarim to the place, which he had prepared for it, and where he had pitched a tabernacle for it, that is, in Jerusalem. | Ἀλλὰ κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀνήνεγκε Δαυὶδ ἐκ πόλεως Καριαθιαρὶμ, ὅτι ἡτοίμασεν αὐτῇ Δαυὶδ, ὅτι ἔπηξεν αὐτῇ σκηνὴν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
| 5 | And the altar of brass, which Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur had made, was there before the tabernacle of the Lord: and Solomon and all the assembly sought it: | Καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν ὃ ἐποίησε Βεσελεὴλ υἱὸς Οὐρίου υἱοῦ Ὢρ, ἐκεῖ ἦν ἔναντι τῆς σκηνῆς Κυρίου· καὶ ἐξεζήτησεν αὐτὸ Σαλωμὼν καὶ ἡ ἐκκλησία, |
| 6 | And Solomon went up thither to the brazen altar, before the tabernacle of the covenant of the Lord, and offered up on it a thousand victims. | καὶ ἤνεγκε Σαλωμὼν ἐκεῖ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου τὸ ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ, καὶ ἤνεγκεν ἐπʼ αὐτῷ ὁλοκαύτωσιν χιλίαν. |
| 7 | And behold that night God appeared to him, saying: Ask what thou wilt that I should give thee. | Ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ ὤφθη Θεὸς τῷ Σαλωμὼν, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, αἴτησαι τί σοι δῶ. |
| 8 | And Solomon said to God: Thou hast shewn great kindness to my father David: and hast made me king in his stead. | Καὶ εἶπε Σαλωμὼν πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν, σὺ ἐποίησας μετὰ Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρός μου ἔλεος μέγα, καὶ ἐβασίλευσάς με ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ. |
| 9 | Now therefore, O Lord God, let thy word be fulfilled, which thou hast promised to David my father: for thou hast made me king over thy great people, which is as innumerable as the dust of the earth. | Καὶ νῦν, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς, πιστωθήτω δὴ τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπὶ Δαυὶδ τὸν πατέρα μου, ὅτι σὺ ἐβασίλευσάς με ἐπὶ λαὸν πολὺν, ὡς ὁ χοῖς τῆς γῆς. |
| 10 | Give me wisdom and knowledge that I may come in and go out before thy people: for who can worthily judge this thy people, which is so great? | Νῦν σοφίαν καὶ σύνεσιν δός μοι, καὶ ἐξελεύσομαι ἐνώπιον τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου καὶ εἰσελεύσομαι, ὅτι τίς κρινεῖ τὸν λαόν σου τὸν μέγαν τοῦτον; |
| 11 | And God said to Solomon: Because this choice hath pleased thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, and wealth, and glory, nor the lives of them that hate thee, nor many days of life: but hast asked wisdom and knowledge, to be able to judge my people, over which I have made thee king, | Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς Σαλωμὼν, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐγένετο τοῦτο ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου, καὶ οὐκ ᾐτήσω πλοῦτον χρημάτων, οὐδὲ δόξαν, οὐδὲ τὴν ψυχὴν τῶν ὑπεναντίων, καὶ ἡμέρας πολλὰς οὐκ ᾐτήσω, καὶ ᾔτησας σεαυτῷ σοφίαν καὶ σύνεσιν, ὅπως κρίνῃς τὸν λαόν μου, ἐφʼ ὃν ἐβασίλευσά σε ἐπʼ αὐτὸν, |
| 12 | Wisdom and knowledge are granted to thee: and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and glory, so that none of the kings before thee, nor after thee, shall be like thee. | τὴν σοφίαν καὶ τὴν σύνεσιν δίδωμί σοι, καὶ πλοῦτον καὶ χρήματα καὶ δόξαν δώσω σοι, ὡς οὐκ ἐγενήθη ὅμοιός σοι ἐν τοῖς βασιλεῦσι τοῖς ἔμπροσθέν σου, καὶ μετὰ σὲ οὐκ ἔσται οὕτως. |
| 13 | Then Solomon came from the high place of Gabaon to Jerusalem before the tabernacle of the covenant, and reigned over Israel. | Καὶ ἦλθε Σαλωμὼν ἐκ βαμὰ τῆς ἐν Γαβαὼν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ πρὸ προσώπου τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 14 | And he gathered to himself chariots and horsemen, and he had a thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen: and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem. | Καὶ συνήγαγε Σαλωμὼν ἅρματα καὶ ἱππεῖς, καὶ ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ χιλία καὶ τετρακόσια ἅρματα, καὶ δώδεκα χιλιάδες ἱππέων· καὶ κατέλιπεν αὐτὰ ἐν πόλεσι τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ ὁ λαὸς μετὰ τοῦ βασιλέως ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
| 15 | And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar trees as sycamores, which grow in the plains in great multitude. | Καὶ ἔθηκεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸ χρυσίον ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ὡς λίθους, καὶ τὰς κέδρους ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ ὡς συκαμίνους τὰς ἐν τῇ πεδινῇ εἰς πλῆθος. |
| 16 | And there were horses brought him from Egypt, and from Coa by the king’s merchants, who went, and bought at a price, | Καὶ ἡ ἔξοδος τῶν ἵππων Σαλωμὼν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ἡ τιμὴ τῶν ἐμπόρων τοῦ βασιλέως πορεύεσθαι, καὶ ἠγόραζον, |
| 17 | A chariot of four horses for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: in like manner market was made in all the kingdoms of the Hethites, and of the kings of Syria. | καὶ ἐνέβαινον καὶ ἐξῆγον ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἅρμα ἓν ἑξακοσίων ἀργυρίου, καὶ ἵππον πεντήκοντα καὶ ἑκατὸν ἀργυρίου· καὶ οὕτω πᾶσι τοῖς βασιλεῦσι τῶν Χετταίων καὶ τοῖς βασιλεῦσι Συρίας ἐν χερσὶν αὐτῶν ἔφερον. |
