Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And at the end of twenty years after Solomon had built the house of the Lord and his own house:
1Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ εἴκοσι ἔτη ἐν οἷς ᾠκοδόμησε Σαλωμὼν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ τὸν οἶκον αὑτοῦ,
2He built the cities which Hiram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
2καὶ τὰς πόλεις ἃς ἔδωκε Χιρὰμ τῷ Σαλωμὼν, ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτὰς Σαλωμὼν, καὶ κατῴκισεν ἐκεῖ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.
3He went also into Emath Suba, and possessed it.
3Καὶ ἦλθε Σαλωμὼν εἰς Βαισωβὰ, καὶ κατίσχυσεν αὐτήν.
4And he built Palmira in the desert, and he built other strong cities in Emath.
4Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν Θοεδμὸρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυρὰς ἃς ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν Ἠμάθ.
5And he built Beth-horon the upper, and Beth-horon the nether, walled cities with Rates and bars and locks.
5Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν Βαιθωρὼν τὴν ἄνω καὶ τὴν Βαιθωρὼν τὴν κάτω, πόλεις ὀχυράς· τείχη, πύλαι, καὶ μοχλοί·
6Balaath also and all the strong cities that were Solomon’s, and all the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen. All that Solomon had a mind, and designed, he built in Jerusalem and in Libanus, and in all the land of his dominion.
6Καὶ τὴν Βαλαὰθ, καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυρὰς αἳ ἦσαν τῷ Σαλωμὼν, καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ τὰς πόλεις τῶν ἱππέων· καὶ ὅσα ἐπεθύμησε Σαλωμὼν κατὰ τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ.
7All the people that were left of the Hethites, and the Amorrhites, and the Pherezites, and the Hevites, and the Jebusites, that were not of the stock of Israel:
7Πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ καταλειφθεὶς ἀπὸ τοῦ Χετταίου, καὶ τοῦ Ἀμοῥῥαίου, καὶ τοῦ Φερεζαίου, καὶ τοῦ Εὐαίου, καὶ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου, οἳ οὐκ εἰσὶν ἐκ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ,
8Of their children, and of the posterity, whom the children of Israel had not slain, Solomon made to be the tributaries, unto this day.
8ἀλλʼ ἦσαν ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτῶν τῶν καταλειφθέντων μετʼ αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ γῇ, οὓς οὐκ ἐξωλόθρευσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἀνήγαγεν αὐτοὺς Σαλωμὼν εἰς φόρον ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
9But of the children of Israel he set none to serve in the king’s works: for they were men of war, and chief captains, and rulers of his chariots and horsemen.
9Καὶ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ ἔδωκε Σαλωμὼν εἰς παῖδας τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ· ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἄνδρες πολεμισταὶ καὶ ἄρχοντες, καὶ οἱ δυνατοὶ καὶ ἄρχοντες ἁρμάτων καὶ ἱππέων.
10And all the chief captains of king Solomon’s army were two hundred and fifty, who taught the people.
10Καὶ οὗτοι ἄρχοντες τῶν προστατῶν βασιλέως Σαλωμὼν, πεντήκοντα καὶ διακόσιοι ἐργοδιωκτοῦντες ἐν τῷ λαῷ.
11And he removed the daughter of Pharao from the city of David, to the house which he had built for her. For the king said: My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for it is sanctified: because the ark of the Lord came into it.
11Καὶ τὴν θυγατέρα Φαραὼ ἀνήγαγε Σαλωμὼν ἐκ πόλεως Δαυὶδ εἰς τὸν οἶκον ὃν ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτῇ, ὅτι εἶπεν, οὐ κατοικήσει ἡ γυνή μου ἐν πόλει Δαυὶδ τοῦ βασιλέως Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι ἅγιός ἐστιν οὗ εἰσῆλθεν ἐκεῖ κιβωτὸς Κυρίου.
12Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of the Lord which he had built before the porch,
12Τότε ἀνήνεγκε Σαλωμὼν ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον, ὃ ᾠκοδόμησε Κυρίῳ ἀπέναντι τοῦ ναοῦ
13That every day an offering might be made on it according to the ordinance of Moses, in the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the festival days three times a year, that is to say, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.
13κατὰ τὸν λόγον ἡμέρας ἐν ἡμέρᾳ, τοῦ ἀναφέρειν κατὰ τὰς ἐντολὰς Μωυσῆ ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις, καὶ ἐν τοῖς μησὶ, καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς, τρεῖς καιροὺς τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ, ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ τῶν ἀζύμων, καὶ ἐν τῇ ἐορτῇ τῶν ἐβδομάδων, καὶ ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ τῶν σκηνῶν.
14And he appointed according to the order of David his father the offices of the priests in their ministries: and the Levites in their order to give praise, and minister before the priests according to the duty of every day: and the porters in their divisions by gate and gate: for so David the man of God had commanded.
14Καὶ ἔστησε κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατοὸς αὐτοῦ τὰς διαιρέσεις τῶν ἱερέων, καὶ κατὰ τὰς λειτουργίας αὐτῶν· καὶ οἱ Λευῖται ἐπὶ τὰς φυλακὰς αὐτῶν, τοῦ αἰνεῖν καὶ λειτουργεῖν κατέναντι τῶν ἱερέων κατὰ τὸν λόγον ἡμέρας ἐν τῇ ἡμερᾳ· καὶ οἱ πυλωροὶ κατὰ τὰς διαιρέσεις αὐτῶν εἰς πύλην καὶ πύλην, ὅτι οὕτως ἐντολαὶ Δαυὶδ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ·
15And the priests and Levites departed not from the king’s commandments, as to any thing that he had commanded, and as to the keeping of the treasures.
15Οὐ παρῆλθον τὰς ἐντολὰς τοῦ βασιλέως περὶ τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τῶν Λευιτῶν εἰς πάντα λόγον, καὶ εἰς τοὺς θησαυρούς.
16Solomon had all charges prepared, from the day that he founded the house of the Lord, until the day wherein he finished it.
16Καὶ ἡτοιμάσθη πᾶσα ἡ ἐργασία ἀφʼ ἧς ἡμέρας ἐθεμελιώθη ἕως οὗ ἐτελείωσε Σαλωμὼν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου.
17Then Solomon went to Asiongaber, and to Ailath, on the coast of the Red Sea, which is in the land of Edom.
17Τότε ᾤχετο Σαλωμὼν εἰς Γασιὼν Γαβὲρ, καὶ εἰς τὴν Αἰλὰθ τὴν παραθαλασσίαν ἐν γῇ Ἰδουμαίᾳ.
18And Hiram sent him ships by the hands of his servants, and skillful mariners, and they went with Solomon’s servants to Ophir, and they took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought it to king Solomon.
18Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Χιρὰμ ἐν χειρὶ παίδων αὐτοῦ πλοῖα καὶ παῖδας εἰδότας θάλασσαν, καὶ ᾤχοντο μετὰ τῶν παίδων Σαλωμὼν εἰς Σωφιρὰ, καὶ ἔλαβον ἐκεῖθεν τὰ τετρακόσια καὶ πεντήκοντα τάλαντα χρυσίου, καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Σαλωμών.
