ThomsonThen David ordered the strangers in the land of Israel to be assembled, and appointed stonecutters to cut hewn stones to build the house for God.

BrentonAnd David gave orders to gather all the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he appointed stone-hewers to hew polished stones to build the house to God.

GreekΚαὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ συναγαγεῖν πάντας τοὺς προσηλύτους τοὺς ἐν γῇ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ κατέστησε λατόμους λατομῆσαι λίθους ξυστοὺς τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι οἶκον τῷ Θεῷ.

ThomsonAnd David said, My son Solomon is young and tender, and the house to be built for the Lord is for extraordinary grandeur, for renown and glory, through every land, I will make provision for it. So David provided materials in abundance before his death.

BrentonAnd David said, My son Solomon is a tender child, and the house for me to build to the Lord is for superior magnificence for a name and for a glory through all the earth: I will make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.

GreekΚαὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ, Σαλωμὼν ὁ υἱός μου παιδάριον ἁπαλὸν, καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τῷ Κυρίῳ εἰς μεγαλωσύνην ἄνω, εἰς ὄνομα καὶ εἰς δόξαν εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν· ἑτοιμάσω αὐτῷ· καὶ ἡτοίμασε Δαυεὶδ εἰς πλῆθος ἔμπροσθεν τῆς τελευτῆς αὐτοῦ.

Thomsonwhen there came to me a word from the Lord saying, Thou hast shed much blood, and fought many battles, thou shalt not build a house for My name, because thou hast shed much blood on the earth before Me.

BrentonBut the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast carried on great wars: thou shalt not build a house to my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth before me.

GreekΚαὶ ἐγένετό μοι λόγος Κυρίου, λέγων, αἷμα εἰς πλῆθος ἐξέχεας, καὶ πολέμους μεγάλους ἐποίησας· οὐκ οἰκοδομήσεις οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ὅτι αἵματα πολλὰ ἐξέχεας ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐναντίον ἐμου.
