Chap. I.
note
Salomon established in the throne, offereth a thousand hostes of sacrifice, 7.
asking wisdome, 12. it is geuen him; with richesse, and temporal glorie,
which he asked not. 14. He prouideth manie chariottes and horsemen.
1 Salomon therfore the sonne of Dauid was
strengthened in his kingdom, and our Lord
was with him, and magnified him on high. note
2 And Salomon commanded al Israel, the
tribunes, and the centurious, and the dukes,
and iudges of al Israel, and the princes of
the families:
3 and he went with al the multitude into the
Excelse of Gabaon, where was the tabernacle of the couenant
of our Lord, which Moyses the seruant of God made, in the
wildernesse.
4 For Dauid had brought the Arke of God from
Cariathiarim into the place, which he had prepared for it,
and where he had pitcht a tabernacle for it, that is, in Ierusalem.
5 The altar also of brasse, which Beseleel the sonne
of Vri the sonne of Hur had made was there before the tabernacle
of our Lord: which also Salomon sought, and al the
assemblie.
6 And Salomon went vp to the altar of brasse, before
the tabernacle of the couenant of our Lord, and offered
on it a thousand hostes.
7 And behold in that verie night God
appeared to him, saying: Aske what thou wilt that I may
geue it thee.
8 And Salomon sayd to God: Thou hast done
great mercie with my father Dauid: and hast made me king
for him.
9 Now therfore Lord God be thy word fulfilled,
which thou hast promised to Dauid my father: for thou hast
made me king ouer thy people great in number, which is so
innumerable as the dust of the earth.
10 Geue me wisdom and
intelligence, that I may come in & goe out before thy people:
for who can worthely iudge this thy people, which is so great?
11 And God sayd to Salomon: Because this rather hath pleased
thy hart, and thou hast not asked riches, and substance, and
glorie, nor their liues that hate thee, no nor manie dayes of life:
-- --
Salomon.
but hast desired wisdom and knowledge, that thou mayst be
able to iudge my people, ouer which I haue made thee king.
12 Wisdom and knowledge are geuen thee: and riches, and
substance and glorie I wil geue thee, soe that none among the
kinges neither before thee, nor after thee shal be like thee.
13 Salomon therfore came from the Excelse of Gabaon into
Ierusalem before the tabernacle of couenant, & reigned ouer
Israel.
14 And he gathered to him chariotes and horsemen,
and there amounted to him a thousand foure hundred chariotes,
and twelue thousand horsemen: and he caused them
to be in the cities of the chariotes, and with the king in Ierusalem.
15 And the king gaue siluer and gold in Ierusalem note as
stones, & cedartrees as sycomores, which grow in the champayne
in great multitude.
16 And there were horses brought
him from Ægypt, and from Coa by the kinges merchantes,
which went, and brought by a price,
17 a chariote of foure
horses for six hundred peces of siluer, and an horse for an hundred
fiftie: in like maner of al the kingdomes of Hetheites,
and of the kinges of Syria market was made.
