1 Chronicles 29
Commentary from 2 fathers
And David the king said to all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom the Lord has chosen, [is] young and tender, and the work [is] great; for [it is] not for man, but for the Lord God.
ΚΑΙ εἶπε Δαυὶδ ὁ βασιλεὺς πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ· Σαλωμὼν ὁ υἱός μου, εἰς ὃν ᾑρέτικεν ἐν αὐτῷ Κύριος, νέος καὶ ἁπαλός, καὶ τὸ ἔργον μέγα, ὅτι οὐκ ἀνθρώπῳ, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ Κυρίῳ Θεῷ.
И҆ речѐ даві́дъ ца́рь ко всемꙋ̀ собра́нїю: соломѡ́нъ сы́нъ мо́й, є҆го́же и҆збра̀ себѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь, ю҆́нъ и҆ мла́дъ, а҆ дѣ́ло вели́ко, зане́же не человѣ́кꙋ ᲂу҆гото́витсѧ зда́нїе, но гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ:
And still farther, because I took pleasure in the house of my God, I have gold and silver which I have procured for myself, and, behold, I have given them to the house of my God over and above, beyond what I have prepared for the holy house.
καὶ ἔτι ἐν τῷ εὐδοκῆσαί με ἐν οἴκῳ Θεοῦ μου ἔστι μοι ὃ περιπεποίημαι χρυσίον καὶ ἀργύριον, καὶ ἰδοὺ δέδωκα εἰς οἶκον Θεοῦ μου εἰς ὕψος, ἐκτὸς ὧν ἡτοίμακα εἰς τὸν οἶκον τῶν ἁγίων,
и҆ є҆щѐ внегда̀ благоволи́ти мѝ въ домꙋ̀ бг҃а моегѡ̀, є҆́сть ᲂу҆ менє̀ є҆́же пригото́вахъ зла́то и҆ сребро̀, и҆ сѐ, да́хъ въ до́мъ бг҃а моегѡ̀, въ высотꙋ̀, кромѣ̀ ѻ҆́ныхъ, ꙗ҆̀же ᲂу҆гото́вахъ на до́мъ ст҃ы́хъ:
Three thousand talents of gold of Suphir, and seven thousand talents of fine silver, for the overlaying of the walls of the sanctuary:
τρισχίλια τάλαντα χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Σουφὶρ καὶ ἑπτακισχίλια τάλαντα ἀργυρίου δοκίμου ἐξαλειφῆναι ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς τοίχους τοῦ ἱεροῦ,
трѝ ты́сѧщи тала̑нтъ зла́та сꙋфі́рска и҆ се́дмь ты́сѧщъ тала̑нтъ сребра̀ и҆скꙋше́на къ позлаще́нїю стѣ́нъ свѧти́лища,
[for thee to use] the gold for [things of] gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for every work by the hand of the artificers. And who is willing to dedicate himself in work this day for the Lord?
εἰς τὸ χρυσίον τῷ χρυσίῳ καὶ εἰς τὸ ἀργύριον τῷ ἀργυρίῳ, καὶ εἰς πᾶν ἔργον διὰ χειρὸς τῶν τεχνιτῶν. καὶ τίς ὁ προθυμούμενος πληρῶσαι τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ σήμερον Κυρίῳ;
и҆дѣ́же дѣ́ло злато́е зла́томъ, а҆ и҆дѣ́же сре́брѧное сребро́мъ, и҆ на всѧ́кое дѣ́ло рꙋко́ю хꙋдо́жникѡвъ: и҆ кто̀ благоволѧ́й и҆спо́лнити рꙋ́кꙋ свою̀ дне́сь гдⷭ҇ꙋ;
Then the heads of families, and the princes of the children of Israel, and the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, and the overseers of the works, and the king’s builders, offered willingly.
καὶ προεθυμήθησαν ἄρχοντες πατριῶν καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ οἱ χιλίαρχοι καὶ οἱ ἑκατόνταρχοι, καὶ οἱ προστάται τῶν ἔργων καὶ οἱ οἰκοδόμοι τοῦ βασιλέως
И҆ ѡ҆бѣща́ша ᲂу҆се́рднѡ нача̑льницы ѻ҆те́чествъ и҆ кнѧ̑зи сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ, и҆ ты́сѧщницы и҆ со́тницы, и҆ нача̑льницы дѣ́лъ и҆ і҆коно́мы царє́вы,
And they gave for the works of the house of the Lord five thousand talents of gold, and ten thousand gold [pieces], and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron.
καὶ ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰ ἔργα τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου χρυσίου τάλαντα πεντακισχίλια καὶ χρυσοῦς μυρίους καὶ ἀργυρίου ταλάντων δέκα χιλιάδας καὶ χαλκοῦ τάλαντα μύρια ὀκτακισχίλια καὶ σιδήρου ταλάντων χιλιάδας ἑκατόν.
и҆ да́ша на дѣла̀ до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ зла́та тала̑нтъ пѧ́ть ты́сѧщъ, и҆ златни̑къ де́сѧть ты́сѧщъ, и҆ сребра̀ тала̑нтъ де́сѧть ты́сѧщъ, и҆ мѣ́ди тала̑нтъ ѻ҆смьна́десѧть ты́сѧщъ, желѣ́за же сто̀ ты́сѧщъ тала̑нтъ:
And they who had [precious] stone, gave it into the treasuries of the house of the Lord by the hand of Jeiel the Gedsonite.
καὶ οἷς εὑρέθη παρ᾿ αὐτοῖς λίθος, ἔδωκαν εἰς τὰς ἀποθήκας οἴκου Κυρίου διὰ χειρὸς ᾿Ιεϊὴλ τοῦ Γεδσωνί.
и҆ ᲂу҆ ни́хже ѡ҆брѣ́тесѧ ка́менїе, да́ша во влага́лище до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ, под̾ рꙋ́кꙋ і҆еїи́лѧ герсѡ́нина.
And the people rejoiced because of the willingness, for they offered willingly to the Lord with a full heart: and king David rejoiced greatly.
καὶ εὐφράνθη ὁ λαὸς ὑπὲρ τοῦ προθυμηθῆναι, ὅτι ἐν καρδίᾳ πλήρει προεθυμήθησαν τῷ Κυρίῳ, καὶ Δαυὶδ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐφράνθη μεγάλως.
И҆ возвесели́шасѧ лю́дїе ѡ҆ ᲂу҆се́рднѣмъ подаѧ́нїи, поне́же всѣ́мъ се́рдцемъ приноша́хꙋ гдⷭ҇ꙋ, и҆ даві́дъ ца́рь возвесели́сѧ ѕѣлѡ̀:
And king David blessed the Lord before the congregation, saying, Blessed art thou, O Lord God of Israel, our Father, from everlasting and to everlasting.
καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ τὸν Κύριον ἐνώπιον τῆς ἐκκλησίας λέγων· εὐλογητὸς εἶ, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισραήλ, ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος.
и҆ благословѝ ца́рь даві́дъ гдⷭ҇а пред̾ всѣ́мъ мно́жествомъ, глаго́лѧ: блгⷭ҇ве́нъ є҆сѝ, гдⷭ҇и бж҃е і҆и҃левъ, ѻ҆ц҃ъ на́шъ, ѿ вѣ́ка и҆ до вѣ́ка:
Thine, O Lord, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the might: for thou art Lord of all things that are in heaven and upon the earth: before thy face every king and nation is troubled.
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.
тебѣ̀, гдⷭ҇и, вели́чество, и҆ си́ла, и҆ сла́ва, и҆ ѡ҆долѣ́нїе, и҆ и҆сповѣ́данїе, и҆ крѣ́пость, ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ всѣ́ми, и҆̀же на нб҃сѝ и҆ на землѝ, влⷣчествꙋеши: ѿ лица̀ твоегѡ̀ трепе́щетъ всѧ́къ ца́рь и҆ ꙗ҆зы́къ: и҆ тебѣ̀, гдⷭ҇и, црⷭ҇тво и҆ великолѣ́пїе во всѣ́хъ и҆ во всѧ́цѣмъ нача́лѣ:
From thee [come] wealth and glory: thou, O Lord, rulest over all, the Lord of all dominion, and in thy hand [is] strength and rule; and [thou art] almighty with thy hand to increase and establish all things.
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.
ѿ тебє̀ бога́тство и҆ сла́ва, ты̀ над̾ всѣ́ми нача́льствꙋеши, гдⷭ҇и, нача́ло всѧ́кагѡ нача́ла, и҆ въ рꙋкꙋ̀ твоє́ю крѣ́пость и҆ вла́сть, и҆ въ рꙋкꙋ̀ твоє́ю млⷭ҇ть, Вседержи́телю, возвели́чити и҆ ᲂу҆крѣпи́ти всѧ̑:
And now, Lord, we give thanks to thee, and praise thy glorious name.
καὶ νῦν, Κύριε, ἐξομολογούμεθά σοι καὶ αἰνοῦμεν τὸ ὄνομα τῆς καυχήσεώς σου.
и҆ нн҃ѣ, гдⷭ҇и, и҆сповѣ́даемсѧ тебѣ̀ и҆ хва́лимъ и҆́мѧ хвале́нїѧ твоегѡ̀:
But who am I, and what [is] my people, that we have been able to be thus forward [in offering] to thee? for all things [are] thine, and of thine own have we given thee,
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.
и҆ кто̀ а҆́зъ є҆́смь, и҆ кто̀ лю́дїе моѝ, ꙗ҆́кѡ возмого́хомъ сїѧ̑ тебѣ̀ благово́льнѣ ѡ҆бѣща́ти; твоѧ̑ бо сꙋ́ть всѧ̑, и҆ ѿ твои́хъ да́хомъ тебѣ̀:
Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense His own already. So that when we talk of a man doing anything for God or giving anything to God, I will tell you what it is really like. It is like a small child going to its father and saying, 'Daddy, give me sixpence to buy you a birthday present.' Of course, the father does, and he is pleased with the child's present. It is all very nice and proper, but only an idiot would think that the father is sixpence to the good on the transaction. When a man has made these two discoveries God can really get to work. It is after this that real life begins.
Mere Christianity, Book 3, Chapter 11: Faith
It is when Dick realises that his niceness is not his own but a gift from God, and when he offers it back to God—it is just then that it begins to be really his own. For now Dick is beginning to take a share in his own creation. The only things we can keep are the things we freely give to God. What we try to keep for ourselves is just what we are sure to lose.
Mere Christianity, Book 4, Chapter 10: Nice People or New Men
for we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers [were]: our days upon the earth [are] as a shadow, and there is no remaining.
ὅτι πάροικοί ἐσμεν ἐναντίον σου καὶ παροικοῦντες ὡς πάντες οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν· ὡς σκιὰ αἱ ἡμέραι ἡμῶν ἐπὶ γῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὑπομονή.
прише́льцы бо є҆смы̀ пред̾ тобо́ю и҆ пресе́льницы, ꙗ҆́коже всѝ ѻ҆тцы̀ на́ши: дні́е на́ши ꙗ҆́кѡ сѣ́нь на землѝ, и҆ нѣ́сть постоѧ́нїѧ:
O Lord our God, as for all this abundance which I have prepared that a house should be built to thy holy name, it is of thy hand, and all [is] thine.
Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, πρὸς πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος τοῦτο, ὃ ἡτοίμακα οἰκοδομηθῆναι οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ σου, ἐκ χειρός σού ἐστι, καὶ σοὶ τὰ πάντα.
гдⷭ҇и бж҃е на́шъ, ко всемꙋ̀ мно́жествꙋ семꙋ̀, є҆́же ᲂу҆гото́вахъ, да сози́ждетсѧ до́мъ и҆́мени ст҃о́мꙋ твоемꙋ̀, ѿ рꙋкꙋ̀ твоє́ю сꙋ́ть, и҆ тебѣ̀ всѧ̑:
And I know, Lord, that thou art he that searches the hearts, and thou lovest righteousness. I have willingly offered all these things in simplicity of heart; and now I have seen with joy thy people here present, willingly offering to thee.
καὶ ἔγνων, Κύριε, ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐτάζων καρδίας καὶ δικαιοσύνην ἀγαπᾶς· ἐν ἁπλότητι καρδίας προεθυμήθην ταῦτα πάντα, καὶ νῦν τὸν λαόν σου τὸν εὑρεθέντα ὧδε εἶδον ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ προθυμηθέντα σοι.
и҆ вѣ́мъ, гдⷭ҇и мо́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ є҆сѝ и҆спытꙋ́ѧй сердца̀, и҆ пра́вдꙋ лю́биши: въ простотѣ̀ се́рдца моегѡ̀ произво́лихъ сїѧ̑ всѧ̑, и҆ нн҃ѣ люді́й твои́хъ, и҆̀же здѣ̀ ѡ҆брѣто́шасѧ, ви́дѣхъ съ ра́достїю тебѣ̀ произво́лившихъ (принестѝ да́ры):
O Lord God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, preserve these things in the thought of the heart of thy people for ever, and direct their hearts to thee.
Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ ᾿Ισαὰκ καὶ ᾿Ισραήλ, τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, φύλαξον ταῦτα ἐν διανοίᾳ καρδίας λαοῦ σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ κατεύθυνον τὰς καρδίας αὐτῶν πρός σε.
гдⷭ҇и бж҃е а҆враа́ма и҆ і҆саа́ка и҆ і҆и҃лѧ ѻ҆тє́цъ на́шихъ, сохранѝ сїѧ̑ въ во́ли се́рдца люді́й твои́хъ во вѣ́ки, и҆ и҆спра́ви сердца̀ и҆́хъ къ тебѣ̀:
And to Solomon my son give a good heart, to perform thy commandments, and [to observe] thy testimonies, and thine ordinances, and to accomplish the building of thy house.
καὶ Σαλωμὼν τῷ υἱῷ μου δὸς καρδίαν ἀγαθὴν ποιεῖν τὰς ἐντολάς σου καὶ τὰ μαρτύριά σου καὶ τὰ προστάγματά σου καὶ τοῦ ἐπὶ τέλους ἀγαγεῖν τὴν κατασκευὴν τοῦ οἴκου σου.
соломѡ́нꙋ же сы́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ да́ждь се́рдце бла́го, да храни́тъ за́пѡвѣди твоѧ̑ и҆ свидѣ̑нїѧ твоѧ̑ и҆ повелѣ̑нїѧ твоѧ̑, и҆ къ соверше́нїю привестѝ зда́нїе до́мꙋ твоегѡ̀.
And David said to the whole congregation, Bless ye the Lord our God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and they bowed the knee and worshipped the Lord, and [did obeisance] to the king.
καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πάσῃ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ· εὐλογήσατε Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν ἡμῶν· καὶ εὐλόγησε πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν, καὶ κάμψαντες τὰ γόνατα προσεκύνησαν τῷ Κυρίῳ, καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ.
И҆ речѐ даві́дъ всемꙋ̀ собра́нїю (люді́й): благослови́те гдⷭ҇а бг҃а на́шего. И҆ благослови́ша всѐ собра́нїе гдⷭ҇а бг҃а ѻ҆тє́цъ свои́хъ: и҆ прекло́ньше кѡлѣ́на поклони́шасѧ гдⷭ҇ꙋ и҆ царю̀.
And David sacrificed to the Lord, and offered up whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord on the morrow after the first day, a thousand calves, a thousand rams, a thousand lambs, and their drink-offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.
καὶ ἔθυσε Δαυὶδ 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 ᾿Ισραήλ.
И҆ пожрѐ даві́дъ жє́ртвы гдⷭ҇ꙋ, и҆ вознесѐ всесожжє́нїѧ бг҃ꙋ на ᲂу҆́трїе пе́рвагѡ днѐ, телє́цъ ты́сѧщꙋ, ѻ҆внѡ́въ ты́сѧщꙋ, а҆́гнєцъ ты́сѧщꙋ, и҆ возлїѧ̑нїѧ и҆́хъ, и҆ же́ртвы мно́жество ѿ всегѡ̀ і҆и҃лѧ.
And they ate and drank joyfully that day before the Lord: and they made Solomon the son of David king a second time, and anointed him king before the Lord, and Sadoc to the priesthood.
καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ μετὰ χαρᾶς καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐκ δευτέρου τὸν Σαλωμὼν υἱὸν Δαυὶδ καὶ ἔχρισαν αὐτὸν τῷ Κυρίῳ εἰς βασιλέα καὶ Σαδὼκ εἰς ἱερωσύνην.
И҆ ꙗ҆до́ша и҆ пи́ша пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ въ де́нь то́й съ вели́кимъ весе́лїемъ: и҆ поста́виша царе́мъ второ́е соломѡ́на сы́на даві́дова, и҆ пома́заша є҆го̀ гдⷭ҇ꙋ въ царѧ̀, и҆ садѡ́ка же во а҆рхїере́а.
And Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David, and was highly honoured; and all Israel obeyed him.
καὶ ἐκάθισε Σαλωμὼν ἐπὶ θρόνου Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐδοκήθη, καὶ ὑπήκουσαν αὐτοῦ πᾶς ᾿Ισραήλ·
И҆ сѣ́де соломѡ́нъ на престо́лѣ гдⷭ҇ни въ царѧ̀, вмѣ́стѡ даві́да ѻ҆тца̀ своегѡ̀, и҆ благоꙋго́денъ бы́сть: и҆ покори́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀ ве́сь і҆и҃ль.
The princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons of king David his father, were subject to him.
οἱ ἄρχοντες καὶ οἱ δυνάσται καὶ πάντες υἱοὶ Δαυὶδ τοῦ βασιλέως τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ὑπετάγησαν αὐτῷ.
Кнѧ̑зи и҆ си́льнїи и҆ всѝ сы́нове царѧ̀ даві́да ѻ҆тца̀ є҆гѡ̀ повинꙋ́шасѧ є҆мꙋ̀.
And the Lord magnified Solomon over all Israel, and gave him royal glory, such as was not upon any king before him.
καὶ ἐμεγάλυνε Κύριος τὸν Σαλωμὼν ἐπάνωθεν παντὸς ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ δόξαν βασιλέως, ὃ οὐκ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ παντὸς βασιλέως ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
И҆ возвели́чи гдⷭ҇ь соломѡ́на над̾ всѣ́мъ і҆и҃лемъ и҆ дадѐ є҆мꙋ̀ сла́вꙋ ца́рства, є҆ѧ́же ни є҆ди́нъ ца́рь и҆мѣ̀ пре́жде є҆гѡ̀.
And David the son of Jessae reigned over Israel forty years;
καὶ Δαυὶδ υἱὸς ᾿Ιεσσαὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ
И҆ даві́дъ сы́нъ і҆ессе́евъ ца́рствова над̾ всѣ́мъ і҆и҃лемъ четы́редесѧть лѣ́тъ,
seven years in Chebron, and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
ἔτη τεσσαράκοντα, ἐν Χεβρὼν ἔτη ἑπτὰ καὶ ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ ἔτη τριακοντατρία.
въ хеврѡ́нѣ се́дмь лѣ́тъ, а҆ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ лѣ́тъ три́десѧть трѝ,
And he died in a good old age, full of days, in wealth, and glory: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.
καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν ἐν γήρᾳ καλῷ, πλήρης ἡμερῶν, πλούτῳ καὶ δόξῃ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Σαλωμὼν υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
и҆ ᲂу҆́мре въ ста́рости бла́зѣ, и҆спо́лнь дні́й, въ бога́тствѣ и҆ сла́вѣ, и҆ воцари́сѧ соломѡ́нъ сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀ вмѣ́стѡ є҆гѡ̀.
And the rest of the acts of David, the former and the latter, are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,
οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ λόγοι τοῦ βασιλέως Δαυίδ, οἱ πρότεροι καὶ οἱ ὕστεροι, γεγραμμένοι εἰσὶν ἐν λόγοις Σαμουὴλ τοῦ βλέποντος καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Νάθαν τοῦ προφήτου καὶ ἐπὶ λόγων Γὰδ τοῦ βλέποντος
Прѡ́чаѧ же словеса̀ царѧ̀ даві́да пє́рваѧ и҆ послѣ̑днѧѧ напи̑сана сꙋ́ть въ словесѣ́хъ самꙋи́ла ви́дѧщагѡ и҆ въ словесѣ́хъ наѳа́на прⷪ҇ро́ка и҆ въ словесѣ́хъ га́да прови́дѧщагѡ,
concerning all his reign, and his power, and the times which went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the earth.
περὶ πάσης τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ καὶ τῆς δυναστείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ καιροί, οἳ ἐγένοντο ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ ἐπὶ πάσας βασιλείας τῆς γῆς.
ѡ҆ все́мъ ца́рствѣ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ крѣ́пости є҆гѡ̀, и҆ времена̀ ꙗ҆̀же бы́ша при не́мъ и҆ во і҆и҃ли и҆ во всѣ́хъ ца́рствахъ земны́хъ.
I have prepared according to all [my] might for the house of my God gold, silver, brass, iron, wood, onyx stones, and costly and variegated stones for setting, and every precious stone, and much Parian [marble].
κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν δύναμιν ἡτοίμακα εἰς οἶκον Θεοῦ μου χρυσίον, ἀργύριον, χαλκόν, σίδηρον, ξύλα, λίθους σοόμ, καὶ πληρώσεως λίθους πολυτελεῖς καὶ ποικίλους καὶ πάντα λίθον τίμιον καὶ Πάριον πολύν.
