Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the LORD’s house and his own house,
1Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ εἴκοσι ἔτη ἐν οἷς ᾠκοδόμησε Σαλωμὼν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ τὸν οἶκον αὑτοῦ,
2Solomon built the cities which Huram 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.
3Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
3Καὶ ἦλθε Σαλωμὼν εἰς Βαισωβὰ, καὶ κατίσχυσεν αὐτήν.
4He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
4Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν Θοεδμὸρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυρὰς ἃς ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν Ἠμάθ.
5Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
5Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν Βαιθωρὼν τὴν ἄνω καὶ τὴν Βαιθωρὼν τὴν κάτω, πόλεις ὀχυράς· τείχη, πύλαι, καὶ μοχλοί·
6and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, 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.
7As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not 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 who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume—of them Solomon conscripted forced labor to 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, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his 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.
10These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
10Καὶ οὗτοι ἄρχοντες τῶν προστατῶν βασιλέως Σαλωμὼν, πεντήκοντα καὶ διακόσιοι ἐργοδιωκτοῦντες ἐν τῷ λαῷ.
11Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city to the house that he had built for her; for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where the LORD’s ark has come are holy.”
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 burnt offerings to the LORD on the LORD’s altar which he had built before the porch,
12Τότε ἀνήνεγκε Σαλωμὼν ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον, ὃ ᾠκοδόμησε Κυρίῳ ἀπέναντι τοῦ ναοῦ
13even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.
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.
14He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required, the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate, for David the man of God had so 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·
15They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
15Οὐ παρῆλθον τὰς ἐντολὰς τοῦ βασιλέως περὶ τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τῶν Λευιτῶν εἰς πάντα λόγον, καὶ εἰς τοὺς θησαυρούς.
16Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of the LORD’s house until it was finished. So the LORD’s house was completed.
16Καὶ ἡτοιμάσθη πᾶσα ἡ ἐργασία ἀφʼ ἧς ἡμέρας ἐθεμελιώθη ἕως οὗ ἐτελείωσε Σαλωμὼν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου.
17Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
17Τότε ᾤχετο Σαλωμὼν εἰς Γασιὼν Γαβὲρ, καὶ εἰς τὴν Αἰλὰθ τὴν παραθαλασσίαν ἐν γῇ Ἰδουμαίᾳ.
18Huram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and brought from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them 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.
