歷代志下 1

¹大衛的兒子所羅門國位堅固；耶和華─他的　神與他同在，使他甚為尊大。Now Solomon son of David established himself securely over his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him and highly exalted him.

²所羅門吩咐以色列眾人，就是千夫長、百夫長、審判官、首領與族長都來。Then Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every leader in all Israel—the heads of the families.

³所羅門和會眾都往基遍的邱壇去，因那裡有　神的會幕，就是耶和華僕人摩西在曠野所製造的。And Solomon and the whole assembly went to the high place at Gibeon because it was the location of God’s Tent of Meeting, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.

⁴只是　神的約櫃，大衛已經從基列‧耶琳搬到他所預備的地方，因他曾在耶路撒冷為約櫃支搭了帳幕，Now David had brought the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place he had prepared for it, because he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.

⁵並且戶珥的孫子、烏利的兒子比撒列所造的銅壇也在基遍耶和華的會幕前。所羅門和會眾都就近壇前。But the bronze altar made by Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, was in Gibeon before the tabernacle of the LORD. So Solomon and the assembly inquired of Him there.

⁶所羅門上到耶和華面前會幕的銅壇那裡，獻一千犧牲為燔祭。Solomon offered sacrifices there before the LORD on the bronze altar at the Tent of Meeting, where he offered a thousand burnt offerings.

⁷當夜，　神向所羅門顯現，對他說：「你願我賜你甚麼，你可以求。」That night God appeared to Solomon and said, “Ask, and I will give it to you!”

⁸所羅門對　神說：「你曾向我父大衛大施慈愛，使我接續他作王。Solomon replied to God: “You have shown much loving devotion to my father David, and You have made me king in his place.

⁹耶和華　神啊，現在求你成就向我父大衛所應許的話；因你立我作這民的王，他們如同地上塵沙那樣多。Now, O LORD God, let Your promise to my father David be fulfilled. For You have made me king over a people as numerous as the dust of the earth.

¹⁰求你賜我智慧聰明，我好在這民前出入；不然，誰能判斷這眾多的民呢？」Now grant me wisdom and knowledge, so that I may lead this people. For who is able to govern this great people of Yours?”

¹¹神對所羅門說：「我已立你作我民的王。你既有這心意，並不求資財、豐富、尊榮，也不求滅絕那恨你之人的性命，又不求大壽數，只求智慧聰明好判斷我的民；God said to Solomon, “Since this was in your heart instead of requesting riches or wealth or honor for yourself or death for your enemies—and since you have not even requested long life but have asked for wisdom and knowledge to govern My people over whom I have made you king—

¹²我必賜你智慧聰明，也必賜你資財、豐富、尊榮。在你以前的列王都沒有這樣，在你以後也必沒有這樣的。」therefore wisdom and knowledge have been granted to you. And I will also give you riches and wealth and honor unlike anything given to the kings before you or after you.”

¹⁴所羅門聚集戰車馬兵，有戰車一千四百輛，馬兵一萬二千名，安置在屯車的城邑和耶路撒冷，就是王那裡。Solomon accumulated 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horses, which he stationed in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem.

¹⁵王在耶路撒冷使金銀多如石頭，香柏木多如高原的桑樹。The king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as abundant as sycamore in the foothills.
