La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Et David disait: Salomon, mon fils, est jeune et d'un âge tendre, et la maison qu'il faut bâtir à l'Éternel doit s'élever très haut en renom et en gloire dans tous les pays; je veux donc faire pour lui des préparatifs. Et David fit des préparatifs en abondance, avant sa mort.
Louis Segond (1910)
David disait: Mon fils Salomon est jeune et d'un âge faible, et la maison qui sera bâtie à l'Eternel s'élèvera à un haut degré de renommée et de gloire dans tous les pays; c'est pourquoi je veux faire pour lui des préparatifs. Et David fit beaucoup de préparatifs avant sa mort.
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Car David dit : Salomon mon fils [est] jeune et délicat, et la maison qu'il faut bâtir à l'Eternel doit être magnifique en excellence, en réputation, et en gloire, dans tous les pays; je lui préparerai donc maintenant [de quoi la bâtir]. Ainsi David prépara, avant sa mort, ces choses en abondance.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender,.... Jarchi supposes he was about twelve years of age, though he observes that the same word is used of Joshua when forty two years of age; it is probable Solomon might be now about twenty:

and the house that is to be builded for the Lord must be exceeding magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: and such was the temple built by Solomon; it was renowned throughout the whole earth; never was there a temple equal to it, no, not the famous temple of Diana at Ephesus, built by the assistance of many kings, and at the expense of all Asia, and was two hundred years in building:

I will therefore now, make preparation for it; seeing his son was so young, and this building to be so magnificent, though he himself was not admitted to build it:

so David prepared abundantly before his death; of which we have an after account in this chapter, and more largely in 1 Chronicles 28:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Young and tender - The exact age of Solomon at this time is uncertain; but it cannot have been more than 24 or 25. It may have been as little as 14 or 15. Compare the 1 Kings 2:2 note.
