ソロモンに現れた主
9 ソロモン王が神殿と宮殿、それに前々から建てたいと望んでいた建物をすべて完成させた時、 2-3 かつてギブオンで現れた主が、再びソロモンに現れて語りました。「わたしはあなたの祈りを聞いた。あなたの建てたこの神殿をいつまでもわたしのものとしよう。いつも喜んでここを見守っていよう。 4 父ダビデのように、あなたもわたしの前で誠実で、いつもわたしの命じることを守るなら、 5 父ダビデに、『あなたの子孫が、いつもイスラエルの王座につくようにする』と約束したとおり、あなたの子孫を永遠にイスラエルの王座につかせよう。 6 しかし、もしあなたか、あなたの子孫がわたしに背き、わたしのおきてを捨ててほかの神々を拝むなら、 7 イスラエルの民を、彼らに与えた地から追い払う。また、わたしにささげられた神殿を投げ捨てる。イスラエルは、すべての国々の物笑いとなり、見せしめとなるだろう。 8 この神殿も廃墟と化し、そばを通る者はみな驚いてささやき、『なぜ主は、この地と神殿とをこのようにされたのだろう』と聞くだろう。 9 その時人々は、『イスラエルの民は、エジプトから連れ出していただいた神を捨て、ほかの神々を拝むようになった。だから神はこのような災いを下されたのだ』と言うだろう。」
その他のソロモンの事業
10 二十年がかりで、神殿と宮殿を建て終えたソロモン王は、 11-12 ツロの王ヒラムに、ガリラヤにある二十の町を与えました。ヒラムが建築用のレバノン杉と糸杉の材木や金を提供してくれたお返しでした。ところが、ヒラムは町々を視察して、それが気に入らなかったので、 13 「いったい何ですか。これでは、まるっきり荒れ地ではないか」と言いました。それで今も、その町々は「カブルの地」（「荒れ果てた地」の意）と呼ばれています。 14 ヒラムはソロモンに、実に百二十タラント（四トン）の金を贈っていたからです。
15 ソロモン王は労働者を集めて、神殿と宮殿のほかにも、ミロの要塞、エルサレムの城壁、ハツォルとメギドとゲゼルの町々を造りました。 16 ゲゼルは、以前エジプトの王が攻め取って焼き払い、そこに住むカナン人を殺した町ですが、のちに、ソロモンの妻となった自分の娘に結婚の贈り物として与えていました。 17-18 そこでソロモンは、下ベテ・ホロン、バアラテ、荒野の町タデモルとともに、このゲゼルを再建したのです。 19 王はまた、穀物倉庫の町を建て、戦車隊や騎兵隊の駐留する町、それに別荘の町をエルサレム近郊やレバノン山麓、その他の地に造りました。
20-21 ソロモン王は、エモリ人、ヘテ人、ペリジ人、ヒビ人、エブス人など、征服した国々の生き残った者を奴隷として用いました。イスラエル人がこれらの国を征服した時、完全に滅ぼすことができずに生き残った者たちです。 22 しかし、イスラエル人を奴隷にはしませんでした。イスラエル人は、兵士、役人、将校、戦車隊と騎兵隊の長にしました。 23 また、奴隷を監督するイスラエル人が五百五十人いました。
24 ソロモン王は、ファラオの娘をエルサレムの旧市内に当たるダビデの町から、宮殿の中に建てた建物に移した時、ミロの要塞を造りました。
25 神殿が完成してから、王は年に三度、祭壇に、焼き尽くすいけにえと和解のいけにえをささげ、そこで香をたきました。
26 またソロモン王は、エドムの地の、紅海に面したエラテに近いエツヨン・ゲベルに造船所を造り、そこで船団を組みました。 27-28 ヒラム王はこの船団の乗組員を補強するため、熟練した水夫を差し向けました。彼らはオフィルとの間を往復し、四百二十タラント（約十四トン）もの金を、ソロモン王のもとへ運んだのです。

The Lord Appears to Solomon(A)
9 When Solomon had finished(B) building the temple of the Lord and the royal palace, and had achieved all he had desired to do, 2 the Lord appeared(C) to him a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon. 3 The Lord said to him:
“I have heard(D) the prayer and plea you have made before me; I have consecrated this temple, which you have built, by putting my Name(E) there forever. My eyes(F) and my heart will always be there.
4 “As for you, if you walk before me faithfully with integrity of heart(G) and uprightness, as David(H) your father did, and do all I command and observe my decrees and laws,(I) 5 I will establish(J) your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father when I said, ‘You shall never fail(K) to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’
6 “But if you[a] or your descendants turn away(L) from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you[b] and go off to serve other gods(M) and worship them, 7 then I will cut off Israel from the land(N) I have given them and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name.(O) Israel will then become a byword(P) and an object of ridicule(Q) among all peoples. 8 This temple will become a heap of rubble. All[c] who pass by will be appalled(R) and will scoff and say, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’(S) 9 People will answer,(T) ‘Because they have forsaken(U) the Lord their God, who brought their ancestors out of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them—that is why the Lord brought all this disaster(V) on them.’”
Solomon’s Other Activities(W)
10 At the end of twenty years, during which Solomon built these two buildings—the temple of the Lord and the royal palace— 11 King Solomon gave twenty towns in Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, because Hiram had supplied him with all the cedar and juniper and gold(X) he wanted. 12 But when Hiram went from Tyre to see the towns that Solomon had given him, he was not pleased with them. 13 “What kind of towns are these you have given me, my brother?” he asked. And he called them the Land of Kabul,[d](Y) a name they have to this day. 14 Now Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents[e] of gold.(Z)
15 Here is the account of the forced labor King Solomon conscripted(AA) to build the Lord’s temple, his own palace, the terraces,[f](AB) the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor,(AC) Megiddo and Gezer.(AD) 16 (Pharaoh king of Egypt had attacked and captured Gezer. He had set it on fire. He killed its Canaanite inhabitants and then gave it as a wedding gift to his daughter,(AE) Solomon’s wife. 17 And Solomon rebuilt Gezer.) He built up Lower Beth Horon,(AF) 18 Baalath,(AG) and Tadmor[g] in the desert, within his land, 19 as well as all his store cities(AH) and the towns for his chariots(AI) and for his horses[h]—whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon and throughout all the territory he ruled.
20 There were still people left from the Amorites, Hittites,(AJ) Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites(AK) (these peoples were not Israelites). 21 Solomon conscripted the descendants(AL) of all these peoples remaining in the land—whom the Israelites could not exterminate[i](AM)—to serve as slave labor,(AN) as it is to this day. 22 But Solomon did not make slaves(AO) of any of the Israelites; they were his fighting men, his government officials, his officers, his captains, and the commanders of his chariots and charioteers. 23 They were also the chief officials(AP) in charge of Solomon’s projects—550 officials supervising those who did the work.
24 After Pharaoh’s daughter(AQ) had come up from the City of David to the palace Solomon had built for her, he constructed the terraces.(AR)
25 Three(AS) times a year Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on the altar he had built for the Lord, burning incense before the Lord along with them, and so fulfilled the temple obligations.
26 King Solomon also built ships(AT) at Ezion Geber,(AU) which is near Elath(AV) in Edom, on the shore of the Red Sea.[j] 27 And Hiram sent his men—sailors(AW) who knew the sea—to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s men. 28 They sailed to Ophir(AX) and brought back 420 talents[k] of gold,(AY) which they delivered to King Solomon.

King James Version
9 And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do,
2 That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.
3 And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:
5 Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
6 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:
7 Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:
8 And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath the Lord done thus unto this land, and to this house?
9 And they shall answer, Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.
10 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the king's house,
11 (Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire,) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.
13 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.
14 And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.
15 And this is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised; for to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a present unto his daughter, Solomon's wife.
17 And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the nether,
18 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
19 And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
20 And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel,
21 Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Solomon levy a tribute of bondservice unto this day.
22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen: but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.
23 These were the chief of the officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David unto her house which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Millo.
25 And three times in a year did Solomon offer burnt offerings and peace offerings upon the altar which he built unto the Lord, and he burnt incense upon the altar that was before the Lord. So he finished the house.
26 And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Eziongeber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.
27 And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
