Ang Plano ni David para sa Templo

28 Karon, ginpatawag ni Haring David sa Jerusalem ang tanan nga opisyal sang Israel: Ang mga opisyal sang mga tribo, ang mga kumander sang kada grupo sang mga soldado nga nagaalagad sa hari, ang iban pa nga mga kumander sang linibo kag ginatos nga mga soldado, ang mga opisyal nga nagadumala sang tanan nga pagkabutang kag kasapatan sang hari kag sang iya mga anak, ang mga opisyal sang palasyo, ang gamhanan nga mga tawo, kag ang tanan nga maayo nga mga soldado.

Sang nagatilipon na sila, nagtindog si David kag nagsiling, “Pamatii ninyo ako, mga kauturan kag katawhan ko. Gusto ko gid magpatindog sang templo para butangan sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo nga aton Dios, para may tulungtungan ang iya tiil. Kag nakaplano na ako sa pagpatindog sini. Pero nagsiling ang Dios sa akon, ‘Indi ikaw ang magapatindog sang templo para sa akon kadungganan, tungod kay isa ikaw ka soldado kag madamo ang imo ginpamatay.’ Pero sa pihak sina, ginpili ako sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang Israel, halin sa bug-os namon nga pamilya nga mangin hari sang Israel hasta san-o.[a] Ginpili niya ang tribo sang Juda bilang pangulo nga tribo. Kag halin sa sini nga tribo, ginpili niya ang akon pamilya, kag halin sa akon pamilya ginkalipay niya ang pagpili sa akon bilang hari sang bug-os nga Israel. Ginhatagan niya ako sang madamo nga mga anak nga lalaki, kag halin sa ila, ginpili niya si Solomon sa paghari sa iya ginharian nga amo ang Israel. Nagsiling siya sa akon, ‘Ang imo anak nga si Solomon amo ang magapatindog sang akon templo kag sang iya sini mga lagwerta. Kay ginpili ko siya nga mangin akon anak, kag ako mangin iya amay. Kag kon magpadayon siya sa pagsunod sang akon mga sugo pareho sang iya ginahimo subong, paharion ko ang iya mga kaliwat hasta san-o.’

“Gani karon, ginamanduan ko kamo sa atubangan sang tanan nga Israelinhon, ang katilingban sang Ginoo, kag sa presensya sang aton Dios, nga tumana ninyo sing maayo ang tanan nga sugo sang Ginoo nga inyo Dios. Kon himuon ninyo ini, padayon ninyo nga panag-iyahan ining maayo nga duta, kag maipapanubli ninyo ini sa inyo mga kaliwat hasta san-o.

“Kag ikaw, Solomon nga anak ko, kilalaha kag alagara ang Dios sang imo amay sa bug-os mo nga tagipusuon kag hunahuna, kay nakita sang Ginoo ang tagsa ka tagipusuon kag nahibaluan niya ang aton motibo kag panghunahuna. Kon magdangop ka sa iya, buligan ka niya; pero kon magbiya ka sa iya, sikwayon ka niya hasta san-o. 10 Gani hunahunaa ini sing maayo. Ginpili ka sang Ginoo sa pagpatindog sang templo para didto siya simbahon. Magpakabakod ka, kag himua ini nga buluhaton.”

11 Dayon ginhatag ni David kay Solomon ang tanan nga plano sa pagpatindog sang templo kag sa iya sini nga balkon, mga bilding, mga bodega, mga kuwarto sa ibabaw, mga kuwarto sa sulod, kag ang Labing Balaan nga Lugar nga sa diin ginapatawad ang mga sala sang tawo. 12 Ginhatag ni David ining tanan nga plano nga gintudlo sa iya sang Espiritu[b] para sa pagpatindog sang mga lagwerta sang templo sang Ginoo, sang tanan nga kuwarto sa palibot sini, kag sang mga bodega sang templo sang Dios, lakip na ang mga bodega para sa mga butang nga ginhalad. 13 Gintudluan man niya si Solomon parte sa paggrupo sang mga pari kag mga Levita kag sa tanan nga buluhaton sa pag-alagad sa templo sang Ginoo, subong man sa tanan nga kagamitan sa pag-alagad. 14 Nagtudlo man siya kon pila kadamo nga pilak kag bulawan ang gamiton sa paghimo sang sini nga mga kagamitan: 15 sa bulawan nga mga suga kag mga bulutangan sini; sa pilak nga mga suga kag mga bulutangan sini; 16 sa bulawan nga mga lamisa nga ginabutangan sang tinapay nga ginahalad sa presensya sang Dios; sa pilak nga mga lamisa; 17 sa bulawan nga mga tinidor nga dalagko; sa bulawan nga mga yahong kag mga pitsil; sa bulawan kag pilak nga mga pinggan; 18 kag sa bulawan nga halaran nga sulunugan sang insenso. Gintudluan man ni David si Solomon kon paano ang paghimo sang bulawan nga kerubin nga nagahumlad ang ila mga pakpak sa ibabaw sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo.

19 Nagsiling si Haring David, “Ini nga mga plano ginsulat suno sa pagtuytoy sang Ginoo, kag gintudluan niya ako kon paano ini tanan himuon.”

20 Nagsiling man si David sa iya anak nga si Solomon, “Magpakabakod ka kag magpakaisog. Suguri na ang pagpaobra. Indi ka magkahadlok ukon magkaluya, kay ang Ginoong Dios, ang akon Dios, kaupod mo. Indi ka niya pagbayaan ukon pagpabay-an hasta matapos ang tanan nga obra para sa templo sang Ginoo. 21 Preparado na ang grupo sang mga pari kag mga Levita para sa tanan nga obra sa templo sang Dios, kag may mga tawo man nga may mga abilidad sa pag-obra sa bisan ano nga buluhaton nga handa sa pagbulig sa imo. Ang mga opisyal kag ang tanan nga tawo handa sa pagtuman sa imo.”

David’s Plans for the Temple

28 David summoned(A) all the officials(B) of Israel to assemble at Jerusalem: the officers over the tribes, the commanders of the divisions in the service of the king, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and livestock belonging to the king and his sons, together with the palace officials, the warriors and all the brave fighting men.

King David rose to his feet and said: “Listen to me, my fellow Israelites, my people. I had it in my heart(C) to build a house as a place of rest(D) for the ark of the covenant of the Lord, for the footstool(E) of our God, and I made plans to build it.(F) But God said to me,(G) ‘You are not to build a house for my Name,(H) because you are a warrior and have shed blood.’(I)

“Yet the Lord, the God of Israel, chose me(J) from my whole family(K) to be king over Israel forever. He chose Judah(L) as leader, and from the tribe of Judah he chose my family, and from my father’s sons he was pleased to make me king over all Israel.(M) Of all my sons—and the Lord has given me many(N)—he has chosen my son Solomon(O) to sit on the throne(P) of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel. He said to me: ‘Solomon your son is the one who will build(Q) my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son,(R) and I will be his father. I will establish his kingdom forever if he is unswerving in carrying out my commands and laws,(S) as is being done at this time.’

“So now I charge you in the sight of all Israel(T) and of the assembly of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God: Be careful to follow all the commands(U) of the Lord your God, that you may possess this good land and pass it on as an inheritance to your descendants forever.(V)

“And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion(W) and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart(X) and understands every desire and every thought. If you seek him,(Y) he will be found by you; but if you forsake(Z) him, he will reject(AA) you forever. 10 Consider now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house as the sanctuary. Be strong and do the work.”

11 Then David gave his son Solomon the plans(AB) for the portico of the temple, its buildings, its storerooms, its upper parts, its inner rooms and the place of atonement. 12 He gave him the plans of all that the Spirit(AC) had put in his mind for the courts of the temple of the Lord and all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the temple of God and for the treasuries for the dedicated things.(AD) 13 He gave him instructions for the divisions(AE) of the priests and Levites, and for all the work of serving in the temple of the Lord, as well as for all the articles to be used in its service. 14 He designated the weight of gold for all the gold articles to be used in various kinds of service, and the weight of silver for all the silver articles to be used in various kinds of service: 15 the weight of gold for the gold lampstands(AF) and their lamps, with the weight for each lampstand and its lamps; and the weight of silver for each silver lampstand and its lamps, according to the use of each lampstand; 16 the weight of gold for each table(AG) for consecrated bread; the weight of silver for the silver tables; 17 the weight of pure gold for the forks, sprinkling bowls(AH) and pitchers; the weight of gold for each gold dish; the weight of silver for each silver dish; 18 and the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense.(AI) He also gave him the plan for the chariot,(AJ) that is, the cherubim of gold that spread their wings and overshadow(AK) the ark of the covenant of the Lord.

19 “All this,” David said, “I have in writing as a result of the Lord’s hand on me, and he enabled me to understand all the details(AL) of the plan.(AM)

20 David also said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous,(AN) and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake(AO) you until all the work for the service of the temple of the Lord is finished.(AP) 21 The divisions of the priests and Levites are ready for all the work on the temple of God, and every willing person skilled(AQ) in any craft will help you in all the work. The officials and all the people will obey your every command.”

28 And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, unto Jerusalem.

Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:

But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood.

Howbeit the Lord God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all Israel:

And of all my sons, (for the Lord hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.

And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

Moreover I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be constant to do my commandments and my judgments, as at this day.

Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the congregation of the Lord, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the Lord your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever.

And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the Lord searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

10 Take heed now; for the Lord hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.

11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlours thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,

12 And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the Lord, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:

13 Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the Lord.

14 He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every kind of service:

15 Even the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every candlestick, and for the lamps thereof: and for the candlesticks of silver by weight, both for the candlestick, and also for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick.

16 And by weight he gave gold for the tables of shewbread, for every table; and likewise silver for the tables of silver:

17 Also pure gold for the fleshhooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basons he gave gold by weight for every bason; and likewise silver by weight for every bason of silver:

18 And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubims, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the Lord.

19 All this, said David, the Lord made me understand in writing by his hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.

20 And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the Lord God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.

21 And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at thy commandment.
