| 1 | And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly. | Or Salomon, fils de David, se fortifia dans son règne; et l'Eternel son Dieu fut avec lui, et l'éleva extraordinairement. | And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and Jehovah his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly. |
| 2 | Then Solomon spake unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every governor in all Israel, the chief of the fathers. | Et Salomon parla à tout Israël, savoir aux Chefs de milliers et de centaines, aux Juges, et à tous les principaux de tout Israël, Chefs des pères. | And Solomon spake unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers` [houses]. |
| 3 | So Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tabernacle of the congregation of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness. | Et Salomon et toute l'assemblée qui était avec lui, allèrent au haut lieu qui était à Gabaon; car là était le Tabernacle d'assignation de Dieu, que Moïse, serviteur de l'Eternel, avait fait au désert. | So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness. |
| 4 | But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjathjearim to the place which David had prepared for it: for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem. | (Mais David avait amené l'Arche de Dieu de Kirjath jéharim dans le lieu qu'il avait préparé; car il lui avait tendu un Tabernacle à Jérusalem.) | But the ark of God had David brought up from Kiriath-jearim to [the place] that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem. |
| 5 | Moreover the brasen altar, that Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, he put before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon and the congregation sought unto it. | Et l'autel d'airain, que Betsaléël, le fils d'Uri, fils de Hur, avait fait, était à Gabaon, devant le pavillon de l'Eternel, lequel fut aussi recherché par Salomon et par l'assemblée. | Moreover the brazen altar, that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of Jehovah: and Solomon and the assembly sought unto it. |
| 6 | And Solomon went up thither to the brasen altar before the LORD, which was at the tabernacle of the congregation, and offered a thousand burnt offerings upon it. | Et Salomon offrit là devant l'Eternel mille holocaustes sur l'autel d'airain qui était devant le Tabernacle. | And Solomon went up thither to the brazen altar before Jehovah, which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt-offerings upon it. |
| 7 | In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee. | Cette même nuit Dieu apparut à Salomon, et lui dit: Demande ce que tu voudras que je te donne. | In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee. |
| 8 | And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy unto David my father, and hast made me to reign in his stead. | Et Salomon répondit à Dieu: Tu as usé d'une grande gratuité envers David mon père, et tu m'as établi Roi en sa place. | And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast showed great lovingkindness unto David my father, and hast made me king in his stead. |
| 9 | Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude. | Maintenant donc, ô Eternel Dieu! que la parole que tu as donnée à David mon père soit ferme, car tu m'as établi Roi sur un peuple nombreux, comme la poudre de la terre. | Now, O Jehovah God, let thy promise unto David my father be established; for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude. |
| 10 | Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great? | Et donne moi maintenant de la sagesse et de la connaissance, afin que je sorte et que j'entre devant ce peuple; car qui pourrait juger ton peuple, qui est si grand? | Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this thy people, that is so great? |
| 11 | And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: | Et Dieu dit à Salomon: Parce que tu as désiré ces avantages, et que tu n'as point demandé des richesses, ni des biens, ni de la gloire, ni la mort de ceux qui te haïssent, et que tu n'as pas même demandé de vivre longtemps, mais que tu as demandé pour toi de la sagesse et de la connaissance, afin de pouvoir juger mon peuple, sur lequel je t'ai établi Roi; | And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: |
| 12 | Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like. | La sagesse et la connaissance te sont données; je te donnerai aussi des richesses, des biens, et de la gloire; ce qui n'est point ainsi arrivé aux Rois qui ont été avant toi, et ce qui n'arrivera plus ainsi après toi. | wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee; neither shall there any after thee have the like. |
| 13 | Then Solomon came from his journey to the high place that was at Gibeon to Jerusalem, from before the tabernacle of the congregation, and reigned over Israel. | Après cela Salomon s'en retourna à Jérusalem du haut lieu qui était à Gabaon, de devant le Tabernacle d'assignation, et il régna sur Israël. | So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel. |
| 14 | And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, which he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem. | Et il fit amas de chariots et de gens de cheval, tellement qu'il avait mille et quatre cents chariots, et douze mille hommes de cheval; et il les mit dans les villes où il tenait ses chariots; il y en eut aussi auprès du Roi à Jérusalem. | And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem. |
| 15 | And the king made silver and gold at Jerusalem as plenteous as stones, and cedar trees made he as the sycomore trees that are in the vale for abundance. | Et le Roi fit que l'argent et l'or n'étaient non plus prisé dans Jérusalem, que les pierres; et les cèdres, que les figuiers sauvages qui sont dans les plaines, tant il y en avait. | And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundance. |
| 16 | And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: the king's merchants received the linen yarn at a price. | Or quant au péage qui appartenait à Salomon de la traite des chevaux qu'on tirait d'Egypte, et du fil, les fermiers du Roi se payaient en fil. | And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; the king`s merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price. |
| 17 | And they fetched up, and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred shekels of silver, and an horse for an hundred and fifty: and so brought they out horses for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, by their means. | Mais on faisait monter et sortir d'Egypte chaque chariot pour six cents pièces d'argent, et chaque cheval pour cent cinquante; et ainsi on en tirait par le moyen de ces fermiers pour tous les Rois des Héthiens, et pour les Rois de Syrie. | And they fetched up and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means. |
