1 Amalalu, Soloumane da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode! Di da muagado eso bugisi. Be amowane, di da mumobi amola gasi ganodini esaloma: ne ilegei.
Then Solomon said, “Yahweh, you said that you would live in a dark cloud.
2 Be waha na da Di eso huluane amo ganodini gebewane esaloma: ne, Debolo diasu ida: idafa gagui dagoi.”
But now I have built a glorious temple for you to live in forever!”
3 Dunu huluane da ea midadi lelefuluba, hina bagade Soloumane da ilima ba: le ganone, amola Gode da ilima hahawane dogolegele hamoma: ne, Godema adole ba: i.
Then while all the people stood there, Solomon turned toward the people and he [asked God to] bless them.
4 E amane sia: i, “Isala: ili ilia Hina Godema nodoma! E da Ea hamomusa: na ada Da: ibidima ilegei amo hamoi dagoi. Hina Gode da musa: amane ilegei,
He said to them, “Praise Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong, who has caused to happen what he promised to my father David. What he said to David was this:
5 ‘Musa: ganini, Na da Isala: ili dunu Idibidi sogega fadegale gadili oule asi. Be Na da Isala: ili soge huluane amo ganodini moilaia amogai Nama nodone sia: ne gadosu hamoma: ne, Debolo diasu gaguma: ne afae hame ilegei. Amola Na fi ouligima: ne, dunu afae hame ilegei.
‘From the time that I brought my people out of Egypt, I have never chosen a city in Israel in which a temple should be built for people to [worship] me there. Nor did I choose anyone to be the leader of my Israeli people.
6 Be wali Na da Da: ibidi di fawane Na dunu fi ouligima: ne ilegei, amola Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade, amo Nama nodone sia: ne gadomusa: sogebi ilegei dagoi.’”
But now I have chosen Jerusalem to be the place for people to worship me, and I have chosen you to rule my Israeli people.’”
7 Amola Soloumane da eno amane sia: i, “Na ada Da: ibidi da Isala: ili ilia Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu Debolo diasu gaguma: ne ilegei.
[Then Solomon said], “My father David wanted to build a temple for Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong.
8 Be Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, ‘Di da Na Debolo Diasu gagumu hanaiba: le, Na da dima hahawane ba: sa. Amo hou da moloi.
But Yahweh said to him, ‘You have wanted to build a temple for me, and what you wanted to do was good.
9 Be amomane dia da amo hame gagumu. Diagofedafa, hi fawane da Naba: le Debolo Diasu gagumu.’
However, you are not the one who I want to build the temple; it is one of your own sons who [I want to] build a temple for me.’
10 Amola wali, Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne ilegei amo E da hamoi dagoi. Na da na ada bagia, Isala: ili fi ilia ouligisu dunu esala. Amola na da Isala: ili Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , Debolo Diasu gagui dagoi.
“And Yahweh has done what he promised to do. I have become the king of Israel to succeed my father, and I am ruling the people, like Yahweh promised, and I have arranged for this temple to be built for us to worship Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong.
11 Amolawane, na da Debolo Diasu ganodini Gousa: su Sema Gagili (gele gasui aduna amoga Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su, E da musa: ninia aowalali Idibidi sogega fadegale gadili oule ahoanoba ilima hamoi, ela da amo ganodini gala) amo ligisi.”
I have put the Sacred Chest in the temple, in which are the stone tablets [on which are engraved the Ten Commandments of] the agreement that Yahweh made with us Israeli people.”
12 Amalalu, dunu huluane ilia odagiaba, Soloumane da asili, oloda midadi aligili, ea lobo gaguia gadole, sia: ne gadoi.
Then Solomon stood in front of the altar which was in front of the people of Israel who had gathered there.
13 (Soloumane da fafai balasega hamone, Debolo Diasu gagoi dogoa ligisi. Amo fafai ea seda defei da 2.4 mida amola ea ba: de da 2.4 mida amola ea gagagula heda: i da1.5 mida. E da amo fafaiga fila heda: le, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, muguni bugili, ea lobo muga gaguia gadoi.)
His workers had built a bronze platform there [for him to stand on], which was 7-1/2 feet long and 7-1/2 feet wide and 4-1/2 feet high. They put it in the outer courtyard. Solomon stood on that platform and then knelt down in front of all the people of Israel who had gathered there, and he spread out his arms toward heaven,
14 E amane sia: ne gadoi, “Isala: ili Hina Gode! Osobo bagadega amola muagado da Gode Di agoai eno hamedafa. Di da Dia fi ilima gousa: su hamoi amo hame gogolesa. Ilia da Dia hamoma: ne sia: i mololedafa nabawane hamonoba, Di da Dia asigidafa hou ilima olelesa.
and he prayed, “Yahweh, the God to whom we Israeli people belong, there is no God like you in heaven or on the earth. You solemnly promised that you would faithfully love us, and that is what you have done for us who earnestly do what you want us to do.
15 Dia na ada Da: ibidima hamomusa: ilegele sia: i amo huluane hamoi dagoi. Wali esoga amo sia: i huluanedafa da hamone dagoi.
“You have done the things that you promised my father David, who served you [very well], that you would do. Truly, you promised to do those things for him, and today we see that by your power you have caused it all to happen.
16 Waha, Isala: ili Hina Gode! Di da na ada Da: ibidima eno ilegele sia: i amo da eso huluane egaga fi da ea hou defele, Dima dawa: iwane fa: no bobogesea, egaga fi afae da mae fisili, Isala: ili fi ouligisu esalumu. Di da amo ilegele sia: i hamoma: ne, na da Dima sia: ne gadosa.
“So now, Yahweh, the God we Israelis belong to, please do the things that you promised to my father David that you would do. You said that there would always be some of his descendants to rule Israel, if they faithfully conduct their lives as he did.
17 Amaiba: le, waha Isala: ili Gode! Di da liligi huluane amo Dia da na ada Da: ibidi, Dia hawa: hamosu dunu, ema ilegele sia: i, amo dafawanedafa hamoma: ma.
So now, God of us Israeli people, cause what you promised David, who served you [well], to happen.
18 Be Gode Di da osobo bagadega esalumu dawa: bela: ? Muagado huluane da Di amo ganodini esaloma: ne defele hame ba: sa. Amaiba: le, ninia da habodane Di esaloma: ne, Debolo Diasu defele gaguma: bela: ?
“But, my God, will you really live on earth among people? There is surely not enough space for you in the sky, or even in the heaven! So there is surely not enough space for you to live in this temple that my workers have built.
19 Hina Gode! Na da Dia hawa: hamosu dunu. Na sia: ne gadosu nabima, amola na wali esoga adole ba: i liligi hahamoma.
But Yahweh, my God, please listen to my prayer, while I am pleading with you this day and do what I am requesting.
20 Di da amo Debolo Diasuga, dunu ilia da Dima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: ilegei. Amaiba: le, Dia Debolo Diasu eso amola gasi ganodini noga: le ouligima. Na da amo Debolo Diasuga ba: le ganone sia: ne gadosea, Dia na sia: ne gadosu nabima.
Please protect this temple day and night. This is the place about which you have said, ‘I will always be there.’ Please listen to my prayer about this place.
21 Na amola Dia fi dunu da amo sogebi ba: le ganone sia: ne gadosea, ninia sia: ne gadosu nabima. Dia diasu Hebene ganodini amoga nabalu, ninia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma.
Listen to me when I pray, and listen to your Israeli people when they pray. Listen from heaven, where you live; and when you hear us pray, forgive us.
22 Ilia da dunu afae ema e da eno dunuma wadela: le hamoi amo diwane udidisia, amola amo dunu Dia oloda amo Debolo ganodini amoga e da wadela: le hame hamoi dafawane ilegele sia: musa: oule masea,
“If someone is accused of doing something wrong to another person, and they bring him to testify in front of your altar outside this holy temple, and if he says, ‘I did not do that; may God punish me if I am not telling the truth,’
23 Hina Gode! Dia Hebene soge ganodini nabima, amola Dia hawa: hamosu dunuma fofada: ma. Wadela: i hamosu dunuma ea hamoi defele ema dawa: ma: ne se dabe ima. Amola moloidafa dunu da giadofale hame hamoi ba: beba: le, fisidigima.
then you listen from heaven, and you decide who is telling the truth. Then punish the person who is guilty as he deserves to be punished, and declare that the other person is innocent.
24 Dia Isala: ili fi dunu Dima wadela: le hamoiba: le, ilima ha lai dunu da ili hasalasisia, amola ilia da amo Debolo Diasuga misini, ilia hou fonobone, Dima gogolema: ne olofosu adole ba: sea,
“And when your Israeli people are defeated by their enemies because they sinned against you, [and forced to go to some distant country, ] if they turn away from their sinful behavior and turn toward this temple and admit [that] you [have justly punished them], and plead [that you will forgive them],
25 Di Hebene diasu amogado nabima. Dia fi dunu ilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofole, amola soge amo Di da ilia aowalalima i, amoga bu oule misa.
listen to them from heaven and forgive your Israeli people for the sins that they [have committed], and bring them back to this land that you gave to our ancestors.
26 Dia fi dunu ilia da Dima wadela: le hamoiba: le, Di da gibu mae sa: ima: ne hamosea, amola fa: no ilia da sinidigili, amo Debolo Diasu ba: le ganone, asabolewane Dima sia: ne gadosea,
“When you do not allow any rain to fall because your people have sinned against you, if they turn toward this temple and admit [that] you [have justly punished them], and turn away from their sinful behavior and humbly pray to you,
27 Dia Hebene gadodili nabima. Isala: ili hina bagade amola ea fi dunu ilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma. Amola ilima moloidafa hou hamoma: ne olelema. Amasea, Hina Gode! Dia soge amo Di da Dia fi eso huluane gaguma: ne i, amoga gibu iasima.
hear from heaven and forgive the sins of your Israeli people. Teach them the right way to conduct their lives. Then cause it to rain here on the land that you gave to your people to belong to them [permanently].
28 Dia soge ganodini, ha: amola olo bagade i masea, o fo dogoloi da ha: i manu bugi fane salasea, o danuba: wa: iga bugi nasea, o Dia fi ilia ha lai dunu da ilima doagala: sea, o olosu enoenoi ilima madelasea,
“And when the people of this land experience famines or if there is a plague, or when their crops are destroyed by very hot winds or by mildew or by locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemies surround any of their cities [in order to attack them], if any of those bad things happen to them,
29 ilia Dima sia: ne gadobe amo nabima. Amola Dia Isala: ili dunu oda ilia da da: i dioi bagade nababeba: le, ilia lobo amo Debolo Diasudili molole gusuli sia: ne gadosea,
when your Israeli people earnestly plead with you, knowing in their inner beings that they are suffering [because they have sinned], if they stretch out their hands toward this temple and pray,
30 ilia sia: ne gagadodudabe nabima. Dia Hebene diasuga amoi esala nabima, amola ili fidili, gogolema: ne olofoma. Dia fawane da dunu ilia dogo ganodini asigi dawa: su dawa: Dunu huluane afae afae hina: hou defele hima dabe ima.
hear from your home in heaven, and forgive them. You alone know what each person is thinking, so reward each person according to everything that he does,
31 Bai Dia fi dunu da soge (amo Di da ninia aowalalima i) amo soge ganodini esalea, ilia da Dia hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamoma: ne, Dia agoane hamoma.
in order that they will revere you and conduct their lives as you want them to, all the time that they live in this land that you gave to our ancestors.
“There will be some foreigners who do not belong to your Israeli people who have come here from countries far away because they have heard that you are very great and that you perform great miracles. If they turn toward this temple and pray,
33 Ga fi dunu ilia soge sedagaga esala, da Dia hou bagade amola hou noga: idafa Di da Dia fi ilima hamoi, amo nababeba: le amo Debolo Diasuga Dima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: masea, amo ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima.

Amasea, ilia da amo Debolo Diasu na gagui amo da Dima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: ilegei sogebi, amo noga: le dawa: mu.
from your home in heaven listen to their prayer, and do for them what they request you to do. Do that in order that all the people-groups in the world will know about you and revere you, like we, your own Israeli people do. And then they will know that this is the temple that I have caused to be built for you.
34 Di da Dia fi ilima ilia da ha lai dunu ili doagala: musa: sia: sea, amo ili habi esalea, amo Debolo Di ilegei amola na Di ganodini esaloma: ne gagui, amodili sia: ne gadosea,
“When you send your people to go to places to attack their enemies, if they pray to you, wherever they are, if they turn toward this city that you have chosen and toward this temple that I have caused to be built to honor you,
35 ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima. Dia Hebene soge amoi esala, ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima amola hasalasu ilima ima.
listen in heaven to their prayers; listen to what they plead for you [to do], and assist them.
36 Dia fi dunu da Dima wadela: le hamosea, (amola dunu huluanedafa da wadela: i hou hamomusa: dawa: ) amola Di da ilima ougiba: le, ilia ha lai ilima hasalasima: ne amola ili eno soge sedagaga mugululi masa: ne, amo logo doasisia,
[“It is true that] everyone sins. So, when your people sin against you, and you become angry with them, you may allow their enemies to capture them and take them to their countries, even to countries that are far away.
37 Dia fi dunu ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima. Ilia da amo soge sedaga ganodini esala amogawi sinidigili, Dima sia: ne gadosea, amola ilia wadela: idafa hou Dima fofada: sea, Hina Gode! Ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima.
When that happens, while they are in the countries to which they were forced to go, if they are sorry for having sinned, if they say, ‘We have sinned; we have done things that are wrong and have done things that are very wicked,’
38 Ilia da amo sedaga soge ganodini dafawane Dima sinidigisia, amola Dia ilegei moilai amola amo Debolo diasu na Digili imunusa: gagui, amodili ba: le ganone, sia: ne gadosea,
if they repent very sincerely, and if they turn toward this land that you gave to our ancestors, and toward this city that you have chosen [to be the place where we should worship you], and toward this temple that I have caused to be built for you and pray,
39 ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima. Dia Hebene diasu amoga ilia sia: ne gadosu nabima. Amola ilima asigima. Dia ili wadela: i hou amola Dima lelesu hou amo gogolema: ne olofoma.
then from your home in heaven hear their prayer, and listen to them while they plead [for your help], and do what they ask you to do, and forgive your people who have sinned against you.
40 Wali, na Gode! Ninima asigiwane ba: ma! Amola sia: ne gadosu ninia guiguda: hamoi amo nabima!
“Now, my God, look at us and listen to us as we pray to you in this place.

Yahweh our God, come and stay in this place with the Sacred Chest, the chest that shows that you are powerful. Yahweh God, cause your priests to know clearly that you have blessed them. Cause us your people to rejoice because of all the good things [that you do for us].
42 Hina Gode! Di da na hina bagade hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi. Dia na mae yolesima! Dia hawa: hamosu dunu Da: ibidi ema asigidafa hou amo bu dawa: ma!”
Yahweh God, do not reject me [the king] whom you have appointed [to be the king of Israel]; do not forget that you greatly loved David, who served you [very well].”
