1  Furthermore David¹⁷³² the king⁴⁴²⁸ said⁵⁵⁹ unto all³⁶⁰⁵ the congregation,⁶⁹⁵¹ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ my son,¹¹²¹ whom alone²⁵⁹ God⁴³⁰ hath chosen,⁹⁷⁷ is yet young⁵²⁸⁸ and tender,⁷³⁹⁰ and the work⁴³⁹⁹ is great:¹⁴¹⁹ for³⁵⁸⁸ the palace¹⁰⁰² is not³⁸⁰⁸ for man,¹²⁰ but³⁵⁸⁸ for the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God.⁴³⁰

2  Now I have prepared³⁵⁵⁹ with all³⁶⁰⁵ my might³⁵⁸¹ for the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of my God⁴³⁰ the gold²⁰⁹¹ for things to be made of gold,²⁰⁹¹ and the silver³⁷⁰¹ for things of silver,³⁷⁰¹ and the brass⁵¹⁷⁸ for things of brass,⁵¹⁷⁸ the iron¹²⁷⁰ for things of iron,¹²⁷⁰ and wood⁶⁰⁸⁶ for things of wood;⁶⁰⁸⁶ onyx⁷⁷¹⁸ stones,⁶⁸ and stones to be set,⁴³⁹⁴ glistering⁶³²⁰ stones,⁶⁸ and of divers colors,⁷⁵⁵³ and all manner³⁶⁰⁵ of precious³³⁶⁸ stones,⁶⁸ and marble⁷⁸⁹³ stones⁶⁸ in abundance.⁷²³⁰

3  Moreover,⁵⁷⁵⁰ because I have set my affection⁷⁵²¹ to the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of my God,⁴³⁰ I have³⁴²⁶ of mine own proper good,⁵⁴⁵⁹ of gold²⁰⁹¹ and silver,³⁷⁰¹ which I have given⁵⁴¹⁴ to the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of my God,⁴³⁰ over⁴⁶⁰⁵ and above all^{4480 3605} that I have prepared³⁵⁵⁹ for the holy⁶⁹⁴⁴ house,¹⁰⁰⁴

4  Even three⁷⁹⁶⁹ thousand⁵⁰⁵ talents³⁶⁰³ of gold,²⁰⁹¹ of the gold^{4480 2091} of Ophir,²¹¹ and seven⁷⁶⁵¹ thousand⁵⁰⁵ talents³⁶⁰³ of refined²²¹² silver,³⁷⁰¹ to overlay²⁹⁰² the walls⁷⁰²³ of the houses¹⁰⁰⁴ withal:

5  The gold²⁰⁹¹ for things of gold,²⁰⁹¹ and the silver³⁷⁰¹ for things of silver,³⁷⁰¹ and for all manner³⁶⁰⁵ of work⁴³⁹⁹ to be made by the hands³⁰²⁷ of artificers.²⁷⁹⁶ And who⁴³¹⁰ then is willing⁵⁰⁶⁸ to consecrate his service^{4390 3027} this day³¹¹⁷ unto the LORD?³⁰⁶⁸

6  Then the chief⁸²⁶⁹ of the fathers¹ and princes⁸²⁶⁹ of the tribes⁷⁶²⁶ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and the captains⁸²⁶⁹ of thousands⁵⁰⁵ and of hundreds,³⁹⁶⁷ with the rulers⁸²⁶⁹ of the king's⁴⁴²⁸ work,⁴³⁹⁹ offered willingly,⁵⁰⁶⁸

7  And gave⁵⁴¹⁴ for the service⁵⁶⁵⁶ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of God⁴³⁰ of gold²⁰⁹¹ five²⁵⁶⁸ thousand⁵⁰⁵ talents³⁶⁰³ and ten thousand⁷²³⁹ drams,¹⁵⁰ and of silver³⁷⁰¹ ten⁶²³⁵ thousand⁵⁰⁵ talents,³⁶⁰³ and of brass⁵¹⁷⁸ eighteen thousand^{7239 8083 505} talents,³⁶⁰³ and one hundred³⁹⁶⁷ thousand⁵⁰⁵ talents³⁶⁰³ of iron.¹²⁷⁰

8  And they with⁸⁵⁴ whom precious stones⁶⁸ were found⁴⁶⁷² gave⁵⁴¹⁴ them to the treasure²¹⁴ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ by⁵⁹²¹ the hand³⁰²⁷ of Jehiel³¹⁷¹ the Gershonite.¹⁶⁴⁹

9  Then the people⁵⁹⁷¹ rejoiced,⁸⁰⁵⁵ for⁵⁹²¹ that they offered willingly,⁵⁰⁶⁸ because³⁵⁸⁸ with perfect⁸⁰⁰³ heart³⁸²⁰ they offered willingly⁵⁰⁶⁸ to the LORD:³⁰⁶⁸ and David¹⁷³² the king⁴⁴²⁸ also¹⁵⁷¹ rejoiced⁸⁰⁵⁵ with great¹⁴¹⁹ joy.⁸⁰⁵⁷

10  Wherefore David¹⁷³² blessed^{1288 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ before⁵⁸⁶⁹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the congregation:⁶⁹⁵¹ and David¹⁷³² said,⁵⁵⁹ Blessed¹²⁸⁸ be thou,⁸⁵⁹ LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ our father,¹ forever^{4480 5769} and ever.^{5704 5769}

11  Thine, O LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ is the greatness,¹⁴²⁰ and the power,¹³⁶⁹ and the glory,⁸⁵⁹⁷ and the victory,⁵³³¹ and the majesty:¹⁹³⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ that is in the heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ and in the earth⁷⁷⁶ is thine; thine is the kingdom,⁴⁴⁶⁷ O LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and thou art exalted⁴⁹⁸⁴ as head⁷²¹⁸ above all.³⁶⁰⁵

12  Both riches⁶²³⁹ and honor³⁵¹⁹ come of^{4480 6440} thee, and thou⁸⁵⁹ reignest⁴⁹¹⁰ over all;³⁶⁰⁵ and in thine hand³⁰²⁷ is power³⁵⁸¹ and might;¹³⁶⁹ and in thine hand³⁰²⁷ it is to make great,¹⁴³¹ and to give strength²³⁸⁸ unto all.³⁶⁰⁵

13  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore, our God,⁴³⁰ we⁵⁸⁷ thank³⁰³⁴ thee, and praise¹⁹⁸⁴ thy glorious⁸⁵⁹⁷ name.⁸⁰³⁴

14  But³⁵⁸⁸ who⁴³¹⁰ am I,⁵⁸⁹ and what⁴³¹⁰ is my people,⁵⁹⁷¹ that³⁵⁸⁸ we should be able^{6113 3581} to offer so willingly⁵⁰⁶⁸ after this sort?²⁰⁶³ for³⁵⁸⁸ all things³⁶⁰⁵ come of⁴⁴⁸⁰ thee, and of thine own^{4480 3027} have we given⁵⁴¹⁴ thee.

15  For³⁵⁸⁸ we⁵⁸⁷ are strangers¹⁶¹⁶ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee, and sojourners,⁸⁴⁵³ as were all³⁶⁰⁵ our fathers:¹ our days³¹¹⁷ on⁵⁹²¹ the earth⁷⁷⁶ are as a shadow,⁶⁷³⁸ and there is none³⁶⁹ abiding.⁴⁷²³

16  O LORD³⁰⁶⁸ our God,⁴³⁰ all³⁶⁰⁵ this²⁰⁸⁸ store¹⁹⁹⁵ that⁸³⁴ we have prepared³⁵⁵⁹ to build¹¹²⁹ thee a house¹⁰⁰⁴ for thine holy⁶⁹⁴⁴ name⁸⁰³⁴ cometh of thine hand,^{4480 3027} and is all³⁶⁰⁵ thine own.

17  I know³⁰⁴⁵ also, my God,⁴³⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ thou⁸⁵⁹ triest⁹⁷⁴ the heart,³⁸²⁴ and hast pleasure⁷⁵²¹ in uprightness.³⁴⁷⁶ As for me,⁵⁸⁹ in the uprightness⁴³³⁹ of mine heart³⁸²⁴ I have willingly offered⁵⁰⁶⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ these things:⁴²⁸ and now⁶²⁵⁸ have I seen⁷²⁰⁰ with joy⁸⁰⁵⁷ thy people,⁵⁹⁷¹ which are present⁴⁶⁷² here,⁶³¹¹ to offer willingly⁵⁰⁶⁸ unto thee.

18  O LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Abraham,⁸⁵ Isaac,³³²⁷ and of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ our fathers,¹ keep⁸¹⁰⁴ this²⁰⁶³ forever⁵⁷⁶⁹ in the imagination³³³⁶ of the thoughts⁴²⁸⁴ of the heart³⁸²⁴ of thy people,⁵⁹⁷¹ and prepare³⁵⁵⁹ their heart³⁸²⁴ unto⁴¹³ thee:

19  And give⁵⁴¹⁴ unto Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ my son¹¹²¹ a perfect⁸⁰⁰³ heart,³⁸²⁴ to keep⁸¹⁰⁴ thy commandments,⁴⁶⁸⁷ thy testimonies,⁵⁷¹⁵ and thy statutes,²⁷⁰⁶ and to do⁶²¹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ these things, and to build¹¹²⁹ the palace,¹⁰⁰² for the which⁸³⁴ I have made provision.³⁵⁵⁹

20  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ to all³⁶⁰⁵ the congregation,⁶⁹⁵¹ Now⁴⁹⁹⁴ bless^{1288 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God.⁴³⁰ And all³⁶⁰⁵ the congregation⁶⁹⁵¹ blessed¹²⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of their fathers,¹ and bowed down their heads,⁶⁹¹⁵ and worshiped⁷⁸¹² the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and the king.⁴⁴²⁸

21  And they sacrificed²⁰⁷⁶ sacrifices²⁰⁷⁷ unto the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and offered⁵⁹²⁷ burnt offerings⁵⁹³⁰ unto the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ on the morrow⁴²⁸³ after that¹⁹³¹ day,³¹¹⁷ even a thousand⁵⁰⁵ bullocks,⁶⁴⁹⁹ a thousand⁵⁰⁵ rams,³⁵² and a thousand⁵⁰⁵ lambs,³⁵³² with their drink offerings,⁵²⁶² and sacrifices²⁰⁷⁷ in abundance⁷²³⁰ for all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel:³⁴⁷⁸

22  And did eat³⁹⁸ and drink⁸³⁵⁴ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ on that¹⁹³¹ day³¹¹⁷ with great¹⁴¹⁹ gladness.⁸⁰⁵⁷ And they made⁴⁴²⁷ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ the son¹¹²¹ of David¹⁷³² king the second time,⁸¹⁴⁵ and anointed⁴⁸⁸⁶ him unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ to be the chief governor,⁵⁰⁵⁷ and Zadok⁶⁶⁵⁹ to be priest.³⁵⁴⁸

23  Then Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ sat³⁴²⁷ on⁵⁹²¹ the throne³⁶⁷⁸ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ as king⁴⁴²⁸ instead of⁸⁴⁷⁸ David¹⁷³² his father,¹ and prospered;⁶⁷⁴³ and all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel³⁴⁷⁸ obeyed^{8085 413} him.

24  And all³⁶⁰⁵ the princes,⁸²⁶⁹ and the mighty men,¹³⁶⁸ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the sons¹¹²¹ likewise¹⁵⁷¹ of king⁴⁴²⁸ David,¹⁷³² submitted^{5414 3027} themselves unto⁸⁴⁷⁸ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ the king.⁴⁴²⁸

25  And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ magnified^{1431 853} Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ exceedingly⁴⁶⁰⁵ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and bestowed⁵⁴¹⁴ upon⁵⁹²¹ him such royal⁴⁴³⁸ majesty¹⁹³⁵ as⁸³⁴ had not³⁸⁰⁸ been¹⁹⁶¹ on⁵⁹²¹ any³⁶⁰⁵ king⁴⁴²⁸ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ him in⁵⁹²¹ Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

26  Thus David¹⁷³² the son¹¹²¹ of Jesse³⁴⁴⁸ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ over⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

27  And the time³¹¹⁷ that⁸³⁴ he reigned⁴⁴²⁷ over⁵⁹²¹ Israel³⁴⁷⁸ was forty⁷⁰⁵ years;⁸¹⁴¹ seven⁷⁶⁵¹ years⁸¹⁴¹ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ he in Hebron,²²⁷⁵ and thirty⁷⁹⁷⁰ and three⁷⁹⁶⁹ years reigned⁴⁴²⁷ he in Jerusalem.³³⁸⁹

28  And he died⁴¹⁹¹ in a good old age,^{7872 2896} full⁷⁶⁴⁹ of days,³¹¹⁷ riches,⁶²³⁹ and honor:³⁵¹⁹ and Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ his son¹¹²¹ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ in his stead.⁸⁴⁷⁸

29  Now the acts¹⁶⁹⁷ of David¹⁷³² the king,⁴⁴²⁸ first⁷²²³ and last,³¹⁴ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ they are written³⁷⁸⁹ in⁵⁹²¹ the book¹⁶⁹⁷ of Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ the seer,⁷²⁰³ and in⁵⁹²¹ the book¹⁶⁹⁷ of Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ the prophet,⁵⁰³⁰ and in⁵⁹²¹ the book¹⁶⁹⁷ of Gad¹⁴¹⁰ the seer,²³⁷⁴

30  With⁵⁹⁷³ all³⁶⁰⁵ his reign⁴⁴³⁸ and his might,¹³⁶⁹ and the times⁶²⁵⁶ that⁸³⁴ went over^{5674 5921} him, and over⁵⁹²¹ Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and over⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the kingdoms⁴⁴⁶⁷ of the countries.⁷⁷⁶

1 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ ὁ βασιλεὺς πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ Σαλωμων ὁ υἱός μου εἷς ὃν ᾑρέτικεν ἐν αὐτῷ κύριος νέος καὶ ἁπαλός καὶ τὸ ἔργον μέγα ὅτι οὐκ ἀνθρώπῳ ἡ οἰκοδομή ἀλλ᾽ ἢ κυρίῳ θεῷ

2 κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν δύναμιν ἡτοίμακα εἰς οἶκον θεοῦ μου χρυσίον ἀργύριον χαλκόν σίδηρον ξύλα λίθους σοομ καὶ πληρώσεως καὶ λίθους πολυτελεῖς καὶ ποικίλους καὶ πάντα λίθον τίμιον καὶ πάριον πολύν

3 καὶ ἔτι ἐν τῷ εὐδοκῆσαί με ἐν οἴκῳ θεοῦ μου ἔστιν μοι ὃ περιπεποίημαι χρυσίον καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ ἰδοὺ δέδωκα εἰς οἶκον θεοῦ μου εἰς ὕψος ἐκτὸς ὧν ἡτοίμακα εἰς τὸν οἶκον τῶν ἁγίων

4 τρισχίλια τάλαντα χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Σουφιρ καὶ ἑπτακισχίλια τάλαντα ἀργυρίου δοκίμου ἐξαλειφθῆναι ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς τοίχους τοῦ ἱεροῦ

5 διὰ χειρὸς τεχνιτῶν καὶ τίς ὁ προθυμούμενος πληρῶσαι τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ σήμερον κυρίῳ

6 καὶ προεθυμήθησαν ἄρχοντες τῶν πατριῶν καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ καὶ οἱ χιλίαρχοι καὶ οἱ ἑκατόνταρχοι καὶ οἱ προστάται τῶν ἔργων καὶ οἱ οἰκονόμοι τοῦ βασιλέως

7 καὶ ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰ ἔργα οἴκου κυρίου χρυσίου τάλαντα πεντακισχίλια καὶ χρυσοῦς μυρίους καὶ ἀργυρίου ταλάντων δέκα χιλιάδας καὶ χαλκοῦ τάλαντα μύρια ὀκτακισχίλια καὶ σιδήρου ταλάντων χιλιάδας ἑκατόν

8 καὶ οἷς εὑρέθη παρ᾽ αὐτοῖς λίθος ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰς ἀποθήκας οἴκου κυρίου διὰ χειρὸς Ιιηλ τοῦ Γηρσωνι

9 καὶ εὐφράνθη ὁ λαὸς ὑπὲρ τοῦ προθυμηθῆναι ὅτι ἐν καρδίᾳ πλήρει προεθυμήθησαν τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ Δαυιδ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐφράνθη μεγάλως

10 καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυιδ τὸν κύριον ἐνώπιον τῆς ἐκκλησίας λέγων εὐλογητὸς εἶ κύριε ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος

11 σοί κύριε ἡ μεγαλωσύνη καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ τὸ καύχημα καὶ ἡ νίκη καὶ ἡ ἰσχύς ὅτι σὺ πάντων τῶν ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς δεσπόζεις ἀπὸ προσώπου σου ταράσσεται πᾶς βασιλεὺς καὶ ἔθνος

12 παρὰ σοῦ ὁ πλοῦτος καὶ ἡ δόξα σὺ πάντων ἄρχεις κύριε ὁ ἄρχων πάσης ἀρχῆς καὶ ἐν χειρί σου ἰσχὺς καὶ δυναστεία καὶ ἐν χειρί σου παντοκράτωρ μεγαλῦναι καὶ κατισχῦσαι τὰ πάντα

13 καὶ νῦν κύριε ἐξομολογούμεθά σοι καὶ αἰνοῦμεν τὸ ὄνομα τῆς καυχήσεώς σου

14 καὶ τίς εἰμι ἐγὼ καὶ τίς ὁ λαός μου ὅτι ἰσχύσαμεν προθυμηθῆναί σοι κατὰ ταῦτα ὅτι σὰ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἐκ τῶν σῶν δεδώκαμέν σοι

15 ὅτι πάροικοί ἐσμεν ἐναντίον σου καὶ παροικοῦντες ὡς πάντες οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ὡς σκιὰ αἱ ἡμέραι ἡμῶν ἐπὶ γῆς καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὑπομονή

16 κύριε ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος τοῦτο ὃ ἡτοίμακα οἰκοδομηθῆναι οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ σου ἐκ χειρός σού ἐστιν καὶ σοὶ τὰ πάντα

17 καὶ ἔγνων κύριε ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐτάζων καρδίας καὶ δικαιοσύνην ἀγαπᾷς ἐν ἁπλότητι καρδίας προεθυμήθην πάντα ταῦτα καὶ νῦν τὸν λαόν σου τὸν εὑρεθέντα ὧδε εἶδον ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ προθυμηθέντα σοι

18 κύριε ὁ θεὸς Αβρααμ καὶ Ισαακ καὶ Ισραηλ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν φύλαξον ταῦτα ἐν διανοίᾳ καρδίας λαοῦ σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ κατεύθυνον τὰς καρδίας αὐτῶν πρὸς σέ

19 καὶ Σαλωμων τῷ υἱῷ μου δὸς καρδίαν ἀγαθὴν ποιεῖν τὰς ἐντολάς σου καὶ τὰ μαρτύριά σου καὶ τὰ προστάγματά σου καὶ τοῦ ἐπὶ τέλος ἀγαγεῖν τὴν κατασκευὴν τοῦ οἴκου σου

20 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ εὐλογήσατε κύριον τὸν θεὸν ὑμῶν καὶ εὐλόγησεν πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία κύριον τὸν θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν καὶ κάμψαντες τὰ γόνατα προσεκύνησαν τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ

21 καὶ ἔθυσεν Δαυιδ τῷ κυρίῳ θυσίας καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ θεῷ τῇ ἐπαύριον τῆς πρώτης ἡμέρας μόσχους χιλίους κριοὺς χιλίους ἄρνας χιλίους καὶ τὰς σπονδὰς αὐτῶν καὶ θυσίας εἰς πλῆθος παντὶ τῷ Ισραηλ

22 καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ μετὰ χαρᾶς καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐκ δευτέρου τὸν Σαλωμων υἱὸν Δαυιδ καὶ ἔχρισαν αὐτὸν τῷ κυρίῳ εἰς βασιλέα καὶ Σαδωκ εἰς ἱερωσύνην

23 καὶ ἐκάθισεν Σαλωμων ἐπὶ θρόνου Δαυιδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐδοκήθη καὶ ἐπήκουσαν αὐτοῦ πᾶς Ισραηλ

24 οἱ ἄρχοντες καὶ οἱ δυνάσται καὶ πάντες υἱοὶ τοῦ βασιλέως Δαυιδ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ὑπετάγησαν αὐτῷ

25 καὶ ἐμεγάλυνεν κύριος τὸν Σαλωμων ἐπάνωθεν ἐναντίον παντὸς Ισραηλ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ δόξαν βασιλέως ὃ οὐκ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ παντὸς βασιλέως ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ

26 καὶ Δαυιδ υἱὸς Ιεσσαι ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ισραηλ

27 ἔτη τεσσαράκοντα ἐν Χεβρων ἔτη ἑπτὰ καὶ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἔτη τριάκοντα τρία

28 καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν ἐν γήρει καλῷ πλήρης ἡμερῶν πλούτῳ καὶ δόξῃ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Σαλωμων υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾽ αὐτοῦ

29 οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ λόγοι τοῦ βασιλέως Δαυιδ οἱ πρότεροι καὶ οἱ ὕστεροι γεγραμμένοι εἰσὶν ἐν λόγοις Σαμουηλ τοῦ βλέποντος καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Ναθαν τοῦ προφήτου καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Γαδ τοῦ βλέποντος

30 περὶ πάσης τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ καὶ τῆς δυναστείας αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ καιροί οἳ ἐγένοντο ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ ἐπὶ πάσας βασιλείας τῆς γῆς

1 Locutusque est David rex ad omnem ecclesiam: Salomonem filium meum unum elegit Deus, adhuc puerum et tenellum: opus namque grande est, neque enim homini præparatur habitatio, sed Deo.

2 Ego autem totis viribus meis præparavi impensas domus Dei mei. Aurum ad vasa aurea, et argentum in argentea, æs in ænea, ferrum in ferrea, ligna ad lignea: et lapides onychinos, et quasi stibinos, et diversorum colorum, omnemque pretiosum lapidem, et marmor Parium abundantissime:

3 et super hæc quæ obtuli in domum Dei mei de peculio meo aurum et argentum, do in templum Dei mei, exceptis his quæ præparavi in ædem sanctam.

4 Tria millia talenta auri de auro Ophir, et septem millia talentorum argenti probatissimi ad deaurandos parietes templi.

5 Et ubicumque opus est aurum de auro, et ubicumque opus est argentum de argento, opera fiant per manus artificum: et si quis sponte offert, impleat manum suam hodie, et offerat quod voluerit Domino.

6 Polliciti sunt itaque principes familiarum, et proceres tribuum Israël, tribuni quoque, et centuriones, et principes possessionum regis.

7 Dederuntque in opera domus Dei auri talenta quinque millia, et solidos decem millia: argenti talenta decem millia, et æris talenta decem et octo millia: ferri quoque centum millia talentorum.

8 Et apud quemcumque inventi sunt lapides, dederunt in thesauros domus Domini per manum Jahiel Gersonitis.

9 Lætatusque est populus cum vota sponte promitterent, quia corde toto offerebant ea Domino: sed et David rex lætatus est gaudio magno.

10 Et benedixit Domino coram universa multitudine, et ait: Benedictus es, Domine Deus Israël patris nostri, ab æterno in æternum.

11 Tua est, Domine, magnificentia, et potentia, et gloria, atque victoria: et tibi laus: cuncta enim quæ in cælo sunt et in terra, tua sunt: tuum, Domine, regnum, et tu es super omnes principes.

12 Tuæ divitiæ, et tua est gloria: tu dominaris omnium. In manu tua virtus et potentia: in manu tua magnitudo, et imperium omnium.

13 Nunc igitur Deus noster, confitemur tibi, et laudamus nomen tuum inclytum.

14 Quis ego, et quis populus meus, ut possimus hæc tibi universa promittere? Tua sunt omnia: et quæ de manu tua accepimus, dedimus tibi.

15 Peregrini enim sumus coram te, et advenæ, sicut omnes patres nostri. Dies nostri quasi umbra super terram, et nulla est mora.

16 Domine Deus noster, omnis hæc copia quam paravimus ut ædificaretur domus nomini sancto tuo, de manu tua est, et tua sunt omnia.

17 Scio, Deus meus, quod probes corda, et simplicitatem diligas, unde et ego in simplicitate cordis mei lætus obtuli universa hæc: et populum tuum qui hic repertus est, vidi cum ingenti gaudio tibi offerre donaria.

18 Domine Deus Abraham, et Isaac, et Israël patrum nostrorum, custodi in æternum hanc voluntatem cordis eorum, et semper in venerationem tui mens ista permaneat.

19 Salomoni quoque filio meo da cor perfectum, ut custodiat mandata tua, testimonia tua, et cæremonias tuas, et faciat universa: et ædificet ædem, cujus impensas paravi.

20 Præcepit autem David universæ ecclesiæ: Benedicite Domino Deo nostro. Et benedixit omnis ecclesia Domino Deo patrum suorum: et inclinaverunt se, et adoraverunt Deum, et deinde regem.

21 Immolaveruntque victimas Domino: et obtulerunt holocausta die sequenti, tauros mille, arietes mille, agnos mille cum libaminibus suis, et universo ritu abundantissime in omnem Israël.

22 Et comederunt, et biberunt coram Domino in die illo cum grandi lætitia. Et unxerunt secundo Salomonem filium David. Unxerunt autem eum Domino in principem, et Sadoc in pontificem.

23 Seditque Salomon super solium Domini in regem pro David patre suo, et cunctis placuit: et paruit illi omnis Israël.

24 Sed et universi principes, et potentes, et cuncti filii regis David dederunt manum, et subjecti fuerunt Salomoni regi.

25 Magnificavit ergo Dominus Salomonem super omnem Israël: et dedit illi gloriam regni, qualem nullus habuit ante eum rex Israël.

26 Igitur David filius Isai regnavit super universum Israël.

27 Et dies quibus regnavit super Israël, fuerunt quadraginta anni: in Hebron regnavit septem annis, et in Jerusalem annis triginta tribus.

28 Et mortuus est in senectute bona, plenus dierum, et divitiis, et gloria: et regnavit Salomon filius ejus pro eo.

29 Gesta autem David regis priora et novissima scripta sunt in libro Samuelis videntis, et in libro Nathan prophetæ, atque in volumine Gad videntis:

30 universique regni ejus, et fortitudinis, et temporum quæ transierunt sub eo, sive in Israël, sive in cunctis regnis terrarum.
