¹A Dávid riekol: Toto je ten pravý dom Hospodina Boha a toto oltár na zápal pre Izraela.

¹And David said, This is the house of Jehovah Elohim, and this is the altar of burnt-offering for Israel.

²Potom kázal Dávid, aby shromaždili cudzozemcov, ktorí boli v zemi Izraelovej. A postavil z nich, ktorí boli súci, za kameniarov, aby natesali tesaných kameňov staväť dom Boží.

²And David commanded to collect the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.

³I množstvo železa na klince, na dvere brán a na spojky pripravil Dávid i medi také množstvo, že mu nebolo váhy,

³And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joists, and brass in abundance without weight;

⁴i cedrového dreva bez počtu, lebo Sidonci a Týrania dopravovali Dávidovi cedrové drevo vo množstve.

⁴and cedar-trees innumerable; for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought cedar-wood in abundance to David.

⁵A Dávid riekol: Šalamún, môj syn, je ešte chlapec a útly, a dom, ktorý sa má staväť Hospodinovi, má byť veľký, nádherný a chýrny a na ozdobu všetkým zemiam, preto teda nech mu pripravím, čo treba. A tak pripravil Dávid množstvo staviva pred svojou smrťou.

⁵For David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for Jehovah must be exceeding great in fame and in beauty in all lands: I will therefore make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.

⁶Potom povolal Šalamúna, svojho syna, a prikázal mu, aby vystavil dom Hospodinovi, Bohu Izraelovmu.

⁶And he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for Jehovah the God of Israel.

⁷A Dávid riekol Šalamúnovi: Môj synu, ja som si bol umienil vystaviť dom menu Hospodina, svojho Boha.

⁷And David said to Solomon, As for me, my son, I was minded to build a house unto the name of Jehovah my God.

⁸Ale stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo o mne povediac: Vylial si množstvo krvi a viedol si veľké boje; nebudeš staväť môjmu menu dom, lebo si vylial mnoho krvi na zem predo mnou.

⁸But the word of Jehovah came to me saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build a house unto my name, for thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

⁹Hľa, syn sa ti narodí, ten bude mužom odpočinutia, a dám mu odpočinutie od všetkých jeho nepriateľov naokolo; lebo jeho meno bude Šalamún, a dám pokoj a ticho za jeho dní na Izraela.

⁹Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and in his days I will give peace and quietness unto Israel.

¹⁰Ten vystaví môjmu menu dom a on mi bude za syna, a ja budem jemu za otca a postavím pevne trón jeho kráľovstva nad Izraelom, a bude stáť až na veky.

¹⁰He shall build a house unto my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

¹¹Teraz tedy, môj synu, nech je Hospodin s tebou! A tak sa ti šťastne povedie, a vystavíš dom Hospodina, svojho Boha, tak ako hovoril o tebe.

¹¹Now, my son, Jehovah be with thee, that thou mayest prosper, and build the house of Jehovah thy God, as he has said of thee.

¹²Len nech ti dá Hospodin rozum a schopnosť rozumieť a nech ti prikáže o Izraelovi a ustaví tvoje srdce tak, aby si ostríhal zákon Hospodina, svojho Boha.

¹²Only, Jehovah give thee wisdom and understanding, and place thee over Israel, and to keep the law of Jehovah thy God.

¹³Vtedy sa ti šťastne povedie, ak budeš pozorovať, aby si činil ustanovenia a súdy, ktoré prikázal Hospodin Mojžišovi vzhľadom na Izraela. Buď silný a zmužilý; neboj sa ani sa nestrachuj!

¹³Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to perform the statutes and ordinances which Jehovah commanded Moses for Israel: be strong and courageous; fear not, neither be dismayed.

¹⁴A hľa, ja vo svojej nevoli pripravil som pre dom Hospodinov sto tisíc hrivien zlata a tisíc tisícov hrivien striebra, a medi a železu nieto váhy, lebo je toho množstvo. I dreva i kamenia som pripravil, a ty k tomu pridáš, čo bude treba.

¹⁴And behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of Jehovah a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance; and timber and stone have I prepared; and thou shalt add to it.

¹⁵Krome toho máš u seba množstvo remeselníkov, kameniarov, murárov a tesárov i všelijakých múdrych ľudí, zbehlých v každej práci.

¹⁵And there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of skilful men for every kind of work.

¹⁶Zlatu, striebru, medi a železu neni počtu. Vstaň a rob, a Hospodin nech je s tebou!

¹⁶Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing and Jehovah be with thee.

¹⁷A Dávid prikázal i všetkým kniežatám Izraelovým, aby pomáhali Šalamúnovi, jeho synovi,

¹⁷And David commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying,]

¹⁸povediac: Či nie je Hospodin, váš Bôh, s vami? A dal vám odpočinutia zo všetkých strán, lebo dal obyvateľov zeme do mojej ruky, a zem je podmanená pred Hospodinom a pred jeho ľudom.

¹⁸Is not Jehovah your God with you? and has he [not] given you rest on every side? for he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before Jehovah, and before his people.

¹⁹Teraz tedy pridajte svoje srdce a svoju dušu k tomu, aby ste hľadali Hospodina, svojho Boha, a vstanúc staväjte svätyňu Hospodina Boha, aby ste vniesli truhlu smluvy Hospodinovej i sväté nádoby Božie do domu, vystaveného menu Hospodinovmu.

¹⁹Now set your heart and your soul to seek Jehovah your God; and arise and build the sanctuary of Jehovah Elohim, to bring the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the vessels of the sanctuary of God into the house that is to be built unto the name of Jehovah.
