2nd Chronicles 8: Solomon’s Additional Achievements - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 6-9: Solomon's Temple Dedicated 2 Chronicles 8 Solomon’s Additional Achievements 8It came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the house of the Lord and his own house, 2that the cities which Hiram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them; and he settled the children of Israel there. 3And Solomon went to Hamath Zobah and seized it. 4He also built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities which he built in Hamath. 5He built Upper Beth Horon and Lower Beth Horon, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars, 6also Baalath and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the chariot cities and the cities of the cavalry, and all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion. 7All the people who were left of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, who were not of Israel— 8that is, their descendants who were left in the land after them, whom the children of Israel did not destroy—from these Solomon raised forced labor, as it is to this day. 9But Solomon did not make the children of Israel servants for his work. Some were men of war, captains of his officers, captains of his chariots, and his cavalry. 10And others were chiefs of the officials of King Solomon: two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people. 11Now Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh up from the City of David to the house he had built for her, for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places to which the ark of the Lord has come are holy.” 12Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord which he had built before the vestibule, 13according to the daily rate, offering according to the commandment of Moses, for the Sabbaths, the New Moons, and the three appointed yearly feasts—the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles. 14And, according to the order of David his father, he appointed the divisions of the priests for their service, the Levites for their duties (to praise and serve before the priests) as the duty of each day required, and the gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate; for so David the man of God had commanded. 15They did not depart from the command of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasuries. 16Now all the work of Solomon was well-ordered from the day of the foundation of the house of the Lord until it was finished. So the house of the Lord was completed. 17Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and Elath on the seacoast, in the land of Edom. 18And Hiram sent him ships by the hand of his servants, and servants who knew the sea. They went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and acquired four hundred and fifty talents of gold from there, and brought it to King Solomon. 2nd Chronicles 9: The Queen of Sheba’s Praise of Solomon - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 6-9: Solomon's Temple Dedicated 2 Chronicles 9 The Queen of Sheba’s Praise of Solomon 9Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem to test Solomon with hard questions, having a very great retinue, camels that bore spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones; and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart. 2So Solomon answered all her questions; there was nothing so difficult for Solomon that he could not explain it to her. 3And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built, 4the food on his table, the seating of his servants, the service of his waiters and their apparel, his cupbearers and their apparel, and his entryway by which he went up to the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her. 5Then she said to the king: “It was a true report which I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom. 6However I did not believe their words until I came and saw with my own eyes; and indeed the half of the greatness of your wisdom was not told me. You exceed the fame of which I heard. 7Happy are your men and happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom! 8Blessed be the Lord your God, who delighted in you, setting you on His throne to be king for the Lord your God! Because your God has loved Israel, to establish them forever, therefore He made you king over them, to do justice and righteousness.” 9And she gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, spices in great abundance, and precious stones; there never were any spices such as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon. 10Also, the servants of Hiram and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought algum wood and precious stones. 11And the king made walkways of the algum wood for the house of the Lord and for the king’s house, also harps and stringed instruments for singers; and there were none such as these seen before in the land of Judah. 12Now King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all she desired, whatever she asked, much more than she had brought to the king. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants. Solomon’s Great Wealth 13The weight of gold that came to Solomon yearly was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold, 14besides what the traveling merchants and traders brought. And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon. 15And King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of hammered gold went into each shield. 16He also made three hundred shields of hammered gold; three hundred shekels of gold went into each shield. The king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon. 17Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold. 18The throne had six steps, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne; there were armrests on either side of the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the armrests. 19Twelve lions stood there, one on each side of the six steps; nothing like this had been made for any other kingdom. 20All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Not one was silver, for this was accounted as nothing in the days of Solomon. 21For the king’s ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Hiram. Once every three years the merchant ships came, bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and monkeys. 22So King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom. 23And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart. 24Each man brought his present: articles of silver and gold, garments, armor, spices, horses, and mules, at a set rate year by year. 25Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem. 26So he reigned over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. 27The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland. 28And they brought horses to Solomon from Egypt and from all lands. Death of Solomon 29Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nebat? 30Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years. 31Then Solomon rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son reigned in his place. 2nd Chronicles 10: The Revolt Against Rehoboam - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 10-12: Rehaboam's Kingdom Divided 2 Chronicles 10 The Revolt Against Rehoboam 10And Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone to Shechem to make him king. 2So it happened, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard it (he was in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), that Jeroboam returned from Egypt. 3Then they sent for him and called him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying, 4“Your father made our yoke heavy; now therefore, lighten the burdensome service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.” 5So he said to them, “Come back to me after three days.” And the people departed. 6Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders who stood before his father Solomon while he still lived, saying, “How do you advise me to answer these people?” 7And they spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to these people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be your servants forever.” 8But he rejected the advice which the elders had given him, and consulted the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him. 9And he said to them, “What advice do you give? How should we answer this people who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke which your father put on us’?” 10Then the young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you should speak to the people who have spoken to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you make it lighter on us’—thus you shall say to them: ‘My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s waist! 11And now, whereas my father put a heavy yoke on you, I will add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scourges!’ 12So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king had directed, saying, “Come back to me the third day.” 13Then the king answered them roughly. King Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders, 14and he spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scourges!” 15So the king did not listen to the people; for the turn of events was from God, that the Lord might fulfill His word, which He had spoken by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 16Now when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying: “What share have we in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to your tents, O Israel! Now see to your own house, O David!” So all Israel departed to their tents. 17But Rehoboam reigned over the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah. 18Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of revenue; but the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. Therefore King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste to flee to Jerusalem. 19So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day. 2nd Chronicles 11: Rehoboam’s Reign in Judah - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 10-12: Rehaboam's Kingdom Divided 2 Chronicles 11 Rehoboam’s Reign in Judah 11Now when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he assembled from the house of Judah and Benjamin one hundred and eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might restore the kingdom to Rehoboam. 2But the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying, 3“Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying, 4‘Thus says the Lord: “You shall not go up or fight against your brethren! Let every man return to his house, for this thing is from Me.” ’ ” Therefore they obeyed the words of the Lord, and turned back from attacking Jeroboam. Rehoboam Fortifies the Cities 5So Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah. 6And he built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa, 7Beth Zur, Sochoh, Adullam, 8Gath, Mareshah, Ziph, 9Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah, 10Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and Benjamin, fortified cities. 11And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of food, oil, and wine. 12Also in every city he put shields and spears, and made them very strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side. Priests and Levites Move to Judah 13And from all their territories the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel took their stand with him. 14For the Levites left their common-lands and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had rejected them from serving as priests to the Lord. 15Then he appointed for himself priests for the high places, for the demons, and the calf idols which he had made. 16And after the Levites left, those from all the tribes of Israel, such as set their heart to seek the Lord God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the Lord God of their fathers. 17So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years. The Family of Rehoboam 18Then Rehoboam took for himself as wife Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, and of Abihail the daughter of Eliah the son of Jesse. 19And she bore him children: Jeush, Shamariah, and Zaham. 20After her he took Maachah the granddaughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith. 21Now Rehoboam loved Maachah the granddaughter of Absalom more than all his wives and his concubines; for he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and begot twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters. 22And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maachah as chief, to be leader among his brothers; for he intended to make him king. 23He dealt wisely, and dispersed some of his sons throughout all the territories of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortified city; and he gave them provisions in abundance. He also sought many wives for them.

2 इतिहास अध्याय 9 शबाकी रानीले सुलेमानको किर्तिको विषयमा सुनिन्। तिनी सुलेमानलाई कठिन प्रश्नहरू द्वार परीक्षा गर्न यरूशलेम आइन्। शबाकी रानीका साथ एक विशाल समूह थियो। तिनीसित ऊँटहरू थिए जसले मसला, प्रचुरमात्रामा सुन अनि बहुमूल्य रत्नहरू बोकेका थिए। तिनी सुलेमान कहाँ आइन् र तिनीसित कुरा-कानी गरिन्। तिनीसित सुलेमानलाई सोध्ने अनेक प्रश्नहरू थिए। 2 सुलेमानले तिनका सबै प्रश्नहरूका उत्तर दिए। सुलेमानका निम्ति व्याख्या गर्न वा उत्तर दिन कठिन पर्ने कुनै कुरा थिएन। 3 शबाकी रानीले सुलेमानको ज्ञान अनि तिनले निर्माण गरेका भवन देखिन्। 4 तिनले सुलेमानको मेचमा भोजन र तिनका अनेकौं महत्हपूर्ण अधिकारीहरू देखिन्। तिनले तिनका सेवकहरूले काम गरेको बस्त्र पहिरेको तरिका देखिन्। तिनले सुलेमानका दाखरस तयार गर्ने सेवकहरू अनि तिनीहरूले पहिरेका बस्त्रहरू देखिन्। तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा सुलेमानले होमबलि अर्पण गरेका देखिन्। जव शबाकी रानीले यी सबै कुराहरू देखिन् तब तिनी आश्चर्य भइन्। 5 तब तिनले राजा सुलेमानलाई भनिन्, “मैले मेरो देशमा तपाईंको महान कार्यहरू अनि बुद्धिको विषयमा सुनेका कथाहरू सत्य रहेछन्। 6 म यहाँ आएर आफ्नै आँखाले नदेखुञ्जेल मैले ती कथाहरूमा विश्वास गरेकी थिइन। अहो, मलाई तपाईंको महान बुद्धिको आधा मात्र पनि भनिएको छैन रहेछ। तपाईं मैले सुनेका कथाहरू भन्दा महान हुनुहुन्छ। 7 तपाईंका पत्नीहरू अनि अधिकारीहरू अति भाग्यमानी रहेछन्। तपाईंका ज्ञानका कुराहरू तिनीहरूले तपाईंको सेवा गर्दै सुन्न सक्ने छन्। 8 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको प्रशंसा होस्। उहाँ तपाईंसित प्रसन्न हुनुहुन्छ अनि परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्वरका निम्ति शासन गर्न तपाईंलाई उहाँको सिंहासनमाथि राख्नु भएको छ। परमेश्वरले इस्राएललाई प्रेम गर्नु हुन्छ। इस्राएललाई सदा-सर्वदा सहयोग प्रदान गर्नु हुन्छ। यसकारण उहाँले तपाईंलाई इस्राएलमाथि न्याय र धार्मीकता पालन गर्ने राजा बनाउनु भयो।” 9 तब, शबाकी रानीले सुलेमानलाई एक सय बीस तोडा सुन, प्रचुर मात्रामा मसला, अनि बहुमूल्य रत्नहरू दिइन्। शबाकी रानीले जस्तै उत्तम मसलाहरू कसैले सुलेमानलाई दिएका थिएनन्। 10 हूरामका सेवकहरू अनि सुलेमानका सेवकहरूले ओपीरबाट सुन ल्याए। तिनीहरूले चन्दनका काठ अनि बहुमूल्य ढुङ्गाहरू पनि ल्याए। 11 राजा सुलेमानले चन्दनका काठ परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको निम्ति सिंडी र राज भवन निर्माण गर्नमा प्रयोग गरे। सुलेमानले चन्दनका काठ गायकहरूका निम्ति बीणा र सारङ्गीहरू बनाउनमा पनि प्रयोग गरे। यहूदा देशमा चन्दनका काठद्वारा बनाइएका ती बस्तुहरू जस्ता सुन्दर बस्तुहरू कसैले कहिले देखेका थिएनन्। 12 राजा सुलेमानले शबाकी रानीलाई तिनले चाहेका अनि याचना गरेका सबै चीजहरू दिए। तिनले शबाकी रानीले आफूलाई दिएको भन्दा अधिक दिए। त्यस पछि शबाकी रानी र तिनका सेवकहरू विदा भए आफ्नै देशमा फर्की गए। 13 सुलेमानले एक वर्षमा जति सुन प्राप्त गरे त्यसको तौल 666 तोडा थियो। 14 घुमन्ते पैकारीहरू अनि व्यापारीहरूले सुलेमान कहाँ अझ अधिक सुन ल्याए। अरबका सबै राजाहरू अनि देशका शासकहरूले पनि सुलेमान कहाँ सुन अनि चाँदी ल्याए। 15 राजा सुलेमानले पिटेका सुनको 200 वटा ठूल ठूला ढालहरू बनाए। प्रत्येक ढाल बनाउनका निम्ति प्रायः 600 शेकेल पिटेको सुन प्रयोग गरियो। 16 सुलेमानले पिटेको सुनको 300 वटा सा-साना ढालहरू पनि बनाए। प्रत्येक ढाल बनाउनका निम्ति प्रायः 300 शेकेल सुन प्रयोग गरियो। सुलेमानले सुनका ढालहरू लबानोनको बन-महलमा राखे। 17 राजा सुलेमानले विशाल सिंहासन निर्माण गर्न हात्तीको दाँत प्रयोग गरे। तिनले सिंहासनलाई शुद्ध सुन द्वारा मोहोरे। 18 सिंहासनमा छःवटा सिंक्रहरू थिए। अनि त्यसको एक पाउ-दान थियो जो सुनले बनिएको थियो। सिंहासनको आसनका दुवै तिर पाखुरा अडयाउने बाहुहरू थिए। प्रत्येक बाहुको छेउमा सिंहका मूर्ति उभिएका थिए। 19 छःवटा सिंडीमा बाह्रवटा सिंहका मूर्तिहरू उभिएका थिए। प्रत्येक सिंडीको प्रत्येक छेउमा एउटा सिंह थियो। यस प्रकारले बनाएको सिंहासन जस्तो अन्य कुनै राज्यमा थिएन। 20 राजा सुलेमानका पिउने सबै प्यालाहरू सुनद्वारा बनिएका थिए। लबानोनको बन-महलका सबै घरेलु चीज-बीजहरू शुद्ध सुनले बनिएका थिए। सुलेमानको समयमा यति विघ्न सम्पत्ति थियो कि चाँदीलाई त्यति मूल्यवान ठानिंदैन थियो। 21 किनभने राजा सुलेमानका जहाजहरू थिए जो हूरामका मानिसहरूले तर्शीश तिर चलाएर लान्थे। अनि प्रत्येक तीन-तीन वर्षमा सुन, चाँदी हस्ती-हाड अनि मुजुरहरू द्वारा लादिएर तर्शीशबाट फर्कन्थे। 22 राजा सुलेमान धन सम्पत्ति र बुद्धिमा संसारका अन्यक कुनै पनि राजा भन्दा महान भए। 23 संसारका सबै अन्य राजाहरू सुलेमान कहाँ तिनका बुद्धिमत्ता पूर्ण निर्णयहरू सुन्नका निम्ति भेट गर्न आउँथे। तिनीहरू सुलेमानलाई परमेश्वरले दिनु भएको ज्ञानका कुरा सुन्न आउँथे। 24 हरेक साल ती राजाहरूले सुलेमानका निम्ति भेटी ल्याउँथे। तिनीहरूले चाँदी अनि सुनले बनेका चीज बीजहरू, बस्त्रहरू, हतियारहरू, मसालाहरू, घोडाहरू अनि खच्चरहरू ल्याउँथे। 25 सुलेमान सित 4,000 घोडा अनि रथहरू राख्ने तबेला थिए। तिनका 12,000 सारथिहरू थिए। सुलेमानले तिनीहरूलाई यरूशलेममा आफूसित रथका निम्ति विशेष शहरहरूमा राखे। 26 सुलेमान यूफ्रेटिस नदी देखि पलिश्ती मानिसहरूको देश, अनि मिश्रदेशको सीमानासम्म फैलिएका क्षेत्रका राजाहरूका राजा थिए। 27 राजा सुलेमानसित यति विघ्नचाँदी थियो कि त्यो यरूशलेमका ढुँङ्गाहरू जस्तै थियो। अनि तिनी सित यति धेरै देवदारका काठहरू थिए कि त्यो पार्वत्य देशहरूका अन्जीरका रूखहरू जस्तै साधरण थिए। 28 मानिसहरूले मिश्रदेशबाट अनि अन्य सबै देशहरूबाट सुलेमान कहाँ घोडाहरू ल्याउँथे। 29 सुलेमानद्वारा अन्य कुराहरू शुरू देखि अन्तसम्म गरिएका, अगमवक्ता नातानका लेखहरूमा, शीलोका अहियाहका अगमवाणी अनि दर्शी इद्दोका दर्शनमा लेखिएका छन्। इद्दोका दर्शनहरू नबातका छोरा यारोबामको बारेमा थिए। 30 सुलेमान चालीस वर्षसम्म यरूशलेममा सम्पूर्ण इस्राएलका राजा थिए। 31 त्यसपछि सुलेमानले आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित विश्राम लिए। मानिसहरूले तिनलाई तिनका पिता दाऊदको शहरमा गाडिदिए। सुलेमानका छोरा रहबाम सुलेमानको स्थानमा नयाँ राजा भए।
