歷代志上22:1-19

 

22:1 大衛說:「這就是耶和華上帝的殿,為以色列人獻燔祭的壇。」
22:2
大衛吩咐聚集住以色列地的外邦人,從其中派石匠鑿石頭,要建造上帝的殿。
22:3
大衛預備許多鐵做門上的釘子和鉤子,又預備許多銅,多得無法可稱;
22:4
又預備無數的香柏木,因為西頓人和泰爾人給大衛運了許多香柏木來。
22:5
大衛說:「我兒子所羅門還年幼嬌嫩,要為耶和華建造的殿宇必須高大輝煌,使名譽榮耀傳遍萬國;所以我要為殿預備材料。」於是,大衛在未死之先預備的材料甚多。
22:6
大衛召了他兒子所羅門來,囑咐他給耶和華以色列的上帝建造殿宇,
22:7
對所羅門說:「我兒啊,我心裡本想為耶和華我上帝的名建造殿宇,
22:8
只是耶和華的話臨到我說:『你流了多人的血,打了多次大仗,你不可為我的名建造殿宇,因為你在我眼前使多人的血流在地上。
22:9
你要生一個兒子,他必作太平的人;我必使他安靜,不被四圍的仇敵擾亂。他的名要叫所羅門(就是太平的意思)。他在位的日子,我必使以色列人平安康泰。
22:10
他必為我的名建造殿宇。他要作我的子;我要作他的父。他作以色列王;我必堅定他的國位,直到永遠。』
22:11
我兒啊,現今願耶和華與你同在,使你亨通,照他指著你說的話,建造耶和華你上帝的殿。
22:12
但願耶和華賜你聰明智慧,好治理以色列國,遵行耶和華你上帝的律法。
22:13
你若謹守遵行耶和華藉摩西吩咐以色列的律例典章,就得亨通。你當剛強壯膽,不要懼怕,也不要驚惶。
22:14
我在困難之中為耶和華的殿預備了金子十萬他連得,銀子一百萬他連得,銅和鐵多得無法可稱;我也預備了木頭、石頭,你還可以增添。
22:15
你有許多匠人,就是石匠、木匠,和一切能做各樣工的巧匠,
22:16
並有無數的金銀銅鐵。你當起來辦事,願耶和華與你同在。」
22:17
大衛又吩咐以色列的眾首領幫助他兒子所羅門,說:
22:18
「耶和華你們的上帝不是與你們同在嗎?不是叫你們四圍都平安嗎?因他已將這地的居民交在我手中,這地就在耶和華與他百姓面前制伏了。
22:19
現在你們應當立定心意,尋求耶和華你們的上帝;也當起來建造耶和華上帝的聖所,好將耶和華的約櫃和供奉上帝的聖器皿都搬進為耶和華名建造的殿裡。

 

 Then David said, “The house of the Lord God is to be here, and also the altar of burnt offering for Israel.”

So David gave orders to assemble the foreigners residing in Israel, and from among them he appointed stonecutters to prepare dressed stone for building the house of God. He provided a large amount of iron to make nails for the doors of the gateways and for the fittings, and more bronze than could be weighed. He also provided more cedar logs than could be counted, for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought large numbers of them to David.

David said, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the Lord should be of great magnificence and fame and splendor in the sight of all the nations. Therefore I will make preparations for it.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.

Then he called for his son Solomon and charged him to build a house for the Lord, the God of Israel. David said to Solomon: “My son, I had it in my heart to build a house for the Name of the Lord my God. But this word of the Lord came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and have fought many wars. You are not to build a house for my Name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight. But you will have a son who will be a man of peace and rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. His name will be Solomon,[a] and I will grant Israel peace and quiet during his reign. 10 He is the one who will build a house for my Name. He will be my son, and I will be his father. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’

11 “Now, my son, the Lord be with you, and may you have success and build the house of the Lord your God, as he said you would. 12 May the Lord give you discretion and understanding when he puts you in command over Israel, so that you may keep the law of the Lord your God. 13 Then you will have success if you are careful to observe the decrees and laws that the Lord gave Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged.

14 “I have taken great pains to provide for the temple of the Lord a hundred thousand talents of gold, a million talents of silver, quantities of bronze and iron too great to be weighed, and wood and stone. And you may add to them. 15 You have many workers: stonecutters, masons and carpenters, as well as those skilled in every kind of work 16 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—craftsmen beyond number. Now begin the work, and the Lord be with you.”

17 Then David ordered all the leaders of Israel to help his son Solomon. 18 He said to them, “Is not the Lord your God with you? And has he not granted you rest on every side? For he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hands, and the land is subject to the Lord and to his people. 19 Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the Lord your God. Begin to build the sanctuary of the Lord God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the Lord.”

    大衛把建聖殿的使命傳遞給所羅門,也準備了許多建聖殿的材料!所以,聖殿能建立起來,大衛的意志很重要,當然這一切也是聖靈做工的結果!
