&rhand; The fyrste Chapter.
The offeryng of Salomon in the hylaulter at Gabaon,
where he receyueth an aunswere of God what
wysdome shulde be geuen hym, wyth the nombre of
hys charettes and horsemen.
A noteAnd Salomon the sonne of
Dauid waxed stronge in
hys kyngedome, and the
Lorde his God was with
hym, and magnifyed him
on hye. And Salomon c&obar;muned
wyth all Israell,
the capitaynes ouer thousandes
and hundredes, the iudges ∧ all other
Lordes and auncyent heades thorowoute all
Israell. And so Salomon and all the congregacyon
wyth hym, wente to the hylaulter of
Gabaon: for there was the tabernacle of the
wytnesse of God, note which Moses the serua&ubar;t
of the Lorde made in the wyldernesse. But the
arcke of God had Dauid brought from Kariath
Iarim, into the place he had prepared therfore.
For he had pytched a tente for it at Ierusalem.
Moreouer the brasen aulter that Bezeleel
the sonne of Vri, the sonne of Or had made,
was at Gabaon also,
B before the tabernacle
of the Lorde. And Salomon and the c&obar;gregacyon
wente to vyset it. And Salomon offered
there before the Lorde vpon the brasen aulter
that was by the tabernacle of wytnesse, a
thousand burntsacrifyces. And thesame night
God appeared vnto Salomon and sayde to
hym: aske, what I shall geue the. And Salomon
sayde vnto God: thou hast shewed great
mercye vnto Dauid my father, ∧ haste made
me kynge in hys steade. noteAnd now Lord god
let thy promyse vnto Dauid my father be
true. For thou hast made me kynge ouer a
people lyke the duste of þe; earthe in multitude.
-- --
Salomon.
C Wherfore geue me wisdome and knowledge
how to behaue my selfe vnto thys people: for
who is able to iudge thys people that is so
greate?
Then God said to Salomon, because thou
haddest thys in thyne herte, and dyddest not
aske treasure and rychesse, honoure ∧ the lyues
of thyne enemyes, neyther yet longe lyfe:
But hast asked wysdome and knoweledge, to
iudge my people, ouer whiche I haue made þe;
kyng: wisdome and knowledge shalbe geuen
the, and I wyll geue the treasure, rychesse, ∧
glorye also, that amonge the kynges before þe;
or after the, none was or shalbe lyke the. And
so Salomon came from the hylaulter þt; was
at Gabaon to Ierusalem from the tabernacle
of wytnesse, and raygned at Ierusalem.
D And
Salomon gathered charettes and horsemen: þt;
he had a thousande ∧ foure hundred charettes
∧ .xij. thousande horsemen, which he bestowed
in the charet cytyes, and about the kyng at Ierusalem.
And the kynge made syluer ∧ gould
at Ierusalem as plenteous as stones ∧ Cedar
trees as plentye as the mulbery trees þt; grow
in the valeys. And the horses whiche Salom&obar;
had, were brought hym oute of Egypt from
Keua. noteThe kynges marchauntes fet them out
at Keua at a pryce. They came and broughte
out of Egypte a charet for syxe hundred sycles,
and an horse for an hundred ∧ fyfty. And
so broughte they to all the kynges of the Hethites,
and to the kynges of Syrya thorow the
handes of the sayde marchauntes.
