2 Dungkrhoekhaih 6

1 To pacoengah Solomon mah, Angraeng mah tamai kaving thungah ka oh han, tiah thuih roe boeh;

Then said Solomon, Yhwh hath said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

2 toe nang hanah ohhaih im, dungzan ohhaih im maeto ka sak boeh, tiah a naa.

But I have built an house of habitation for thee, and a place for thy dwelling for ever.

3 Israel kaminawk angdoet o naah, siangpahrang mah angqoi moe, Israel kaminawk boih to tahamhoihaih paek.

And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood.

4 Nihcae khaeah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw, ahmin pakoehhaih om nasoe, anih mah kam pa David khaeah, pakha hoi thuih ih lok to a ban hoi koepsak boeh; Anih mah,

And he said, Blessed be Yhwh God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying,

5 Izip prae hoi kaimah ih kaminawk ka zaehhoihaih ni hoi kamtong, Ka hmin ohhaih im sak hanah, Israel acaengnawk ohhaih ahmuen ih vangpui maeto doeh ka qoi ai; kaimah ih kami Israel caanawk ukkung mi doeh ka qoi ai vop;

Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel:

6 toe Ka hmin oh haih hanah, Jerusalem to ka qoih; kaimah ih kami Israel caanawk ukkung ah David to ka qoih boeh, tiah thuih.

But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

7 Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin oh haih hanah, kam pa David mah im sak han poekhaih a tawnh.

Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of Yhwh God of Israel.

8 Toe Angraeng mah kam pa David khaeah, Kai ih ahmin hanah im sak na tim pongah, hmuen kahoih na sak boeh.

But Yhwh said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:

9 Toe nang mah im na sah mak ai; nangmah ih athii angan hoiah tacawt na capa mah ni, Kai ih ahmin hanah im to sah tih, tiah a naa.

Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.

10 Angraeng loe a thuih ih lok baktih toengah sak; Angraeng lokkamhaih baktih toengah, kam pa David zuengah kai ka oh moe, Israel angraeng tangkhang nuiah kang hnut; Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin hanah im to ka sak.

Yhwh therefore hath performed his word that he hath spoken: for I am risen up in the room of David my father, and am set on the throne of Israel, as Yhwh promised, and have built the house for the name of Yhwh God of Israel.

11 Angraeng mah Israel caanawk hoi sak ih lokkamhaih thingkhong to, athung ah ka suek boeh, tiah a thuih.

And in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant of Yhwh, that he made with the children of Israel.

12 Solomon mah Israel kaminawk boih hma ih, Angraeng hmaicam hmaa ah, angdoet moe, a ban to payangh;

And he stood before the altar of Yhwh in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands:

13 Solomon mah sumkamling hoi sak ih dong pangato kasawk, dong pangato kakawk, dong thumto kasang, angdoethaih hmaicam to longhma um li ah a suek; anih loe to hmaicam ah sak ih im nuiah angdoet, Israel kaminawk boih hmaa ah khokkhu cangkrawn hoiah akuep moe, van bangah a ban to payangh.

For Solomon had made a brasen scaffold, of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven,

14 To pacoengah, Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, Long hoi van ah nang hoi kanghmong Sithaw mi doeh om ai; na hmaa ah pathungthin tang hoi na loklam pazui na tamnanawk hanah, lokmaihaih hoi tahmenhaih to na koepsak boeh;

And said, O Yhwh God of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:

15 na tamna kam pa David khaeah lokkamhaih to na pakuem poe; pakha hoi thuih ih lok to vaihniah na ban hoiah na koepsak boeh.

Thou which hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him; and spakest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.

16 To pongah Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, Nang loe, ka hmaa ah na caeh baktih toengah, na capanawk mah ka paek ih lok pazui o thai hanah, a caeh o haih loklam boih ah acoe o nahaeloe, ka hmaa ah Israel ih angraeng tangkhang pongah anghnu han koi kami apet mak ai, tiah kam pa khaeah na thuih ih lok to koepsak ah, tiah a naa.

Now therefore, O Yhwh God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.

17 Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, na tamna David khaeah na thuih ih lok to, vaihiah koepsak ah.

Now then, O Yhwh God of Israel, let thy word be verified, which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.

18 Toe Sithaw loe long kaminawk khaeah om tangtang tih maw? Khenah, vannawk hoi kasang koek vannawk mataeng doeh, nang ohhaih hanah acaeh ai; ka sak ih hae im cae loe kawkruk maw tamcaek!

But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!

19 Toe Aw ka Angraeng Sithaw, vaihiah na tamna mah na hmaa ah tahmen hnikhaih hoi thuih ih lok to na tahngai pae ah;

Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O Yhwh my God, to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:

20 ka hmin ka suek han, tiah na thuih ih ahmuen ah, aqum athun na mik padai ah; na tamnanawk mah hae ahmuen hoi lawkthuihaih to tahngai ah.

That thine eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest put thy name there; to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place.

21 Na tamna hoi nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk mah, hae ahmuen hoi tahmen hnikhaih lawkthuih o naah, na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah tahngai paeh loe, na thaih naah tahmen paeh.

Hearken therefore unto the supplications of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they shall make toward this place: hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven; and when thou hearest, forgive.

22 Kami mah a imtaeng kami mui ah zaehaih sakmoeng moe, a imtaeng kami mah lokkamhaih saksak hanah, hae im thung ih hmaicam hmaa ah angzo moe, lokkamhaih to sah nahaeloe,

If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to make him swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house;

23 van hoiah tahngai pae ah; kazae kami loe a sakpazaehaih baktih toengah lu nuiah krahsak ah loe, zaehaih tawn ai kami loe zaehaih tawn ai baktih toengah, a toenghaih atho to paek hanah, na tamnanawk nuiah lokcaek ah.

Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according to his righteousness.

24 Nangmah ih kami Israelnawk mah, na nuiah zaehaih sak o pongah, angmacae ih misanawk mah pazawk naah, nang khaeah amlaem o moe, na hmin to kawk o pacoengah, hae im hmaa ah tahmenhaih hni o moe, lawkthui o nahaeloe,

And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee; and shall return and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee in this house;

25 van hoiah tahngai pae ah loe, nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk ih zaehaih to tahmen ah; nihcae to angmacae hoi ampanawk khaeah na paek ih prae thungah caeh haih let ah.

Then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.

26 Nihcae mah na hmaa ah zaehaih sak o pongah, khokhaahaih oh moe, van hoiah kho angzo ai, to tiah nihcae to na thuitaek naah, angmacae zaehaih to caeh o taak moe, hae ahmuen ah lawkthuihaih hoiah na hmin to kawk o nahaeloe,

When the heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; yet if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou dost afflict them;

27 van hoiah tahngai pae ah loe, na tamnanawk, nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk ih zaehaih to tahmen ah; nihcae mah pazui han ih loklam kahoih to patuek ah loe, kai ih kaminawk hanah qawk ah na paek ih, prae nuiah kho angzosak ah.

Then hear thou from heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou hast taught them the good way, wherein they should walk; and send rain upon thy land, which thou hast given unto thy people for an inheritance.

28 Prae thungah raihaih hoi khokhaahaih phak naah maw, takhi sae pongah duekhaih maw, hmuen tapokhaih pongah maw, dantui amkawhaih pongah maw, pakhuh pung pongah maw, langkawk pung pongah maw, misa mah vangpuinawk takui khoep pongah maw, ngannathaih hoi angoihaih phak naah maw,

If there be dearth in the land, if there be pestilence, if there be blasting, or mildew, locusts, or caterpillers; if their enemies besiege them in the cities of their land; whatsoever sore or whatsoever sickness there be:

29 nangmah ih Israel kaminawk boih mah, a tongh o ih raihaih hoi nathaihnawk to panoek o naah, nang khaeah lawkthui o moe, tahmen hnikhaih hoiah hae im ah ban payangh o nahaeloe,

Then what prayer or what supplication soever shall be made of any man, or of all thy people Israel, when every one shall know his own sore and his own grief, and shall spread forth his hands in this house:

30 na ohhaih van hoiah tahngai pae ah; nihcae ih palungthin panoekkung loe nang ni; (nang khue mah ni kaminawk ih palungthin to panoek) nihcae zaehaih to tahmen ah; kami boih a sak o ih hmuen baktiah lokcaek ah;

Then hear thou from heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and render unto every man according unto all his ways, whose heart thou knowest; ( for thou only knowest the hearts of the children of men: )

31 to tiah nahaeloe nihcae mah na zii o ueloe, kam panawk khaeah na paek ih prae thungah oh o nathung, nang ih loklam ah caeh o tih.

That they may fear thee, to walk in thy ways, so long as they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

32 Nangmah ih Israel kami ai, prae kalah kaminawk to prae kangthla hoiah angzo o moe, na hmin lensawkhaih hoiah na ban thacakhaih pongah, ban payangh o moe, hae im bangah lawkthui o nahaeloe,

Moreover concerning the stranger, which is not of thy people Israel, but is come from a far country for thy great name’s sake, and thy mighty hand, and thy stretched out arm; if they come and pray in this house;

33 na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah tahngai pae ah; prae kalah kaminawk mah ang hnik o ih hmuen boih to sah pae ah; to tiah ni long nui ih kaminawk boih mah na hmin to panoek o tih; nangmah ih Israel kaminawk mah nang ang zit o baktih toengah, nang to zii o ueloe, na hmin ohhaih han ih ni hae im hae ka sak, tiah panoek o tih.

Then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy name, and fear thee, as doth thy people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.

34 Na patoeh ih baktih toengah, nangmah ih kaminawk misatukhaih ahmuen ah caeh o naah, na qoih ih hae vangpui hoi na hmin hanah ka sak ih hae im bangah lawkthui o nahaeloe,

If thy people go out to war against their enemies by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray unto thee toward this city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name;

35 nihcae lawkthuihaih hoi tahmen hnikhaih to van hoiah tahngai paeh loe, nihcae to khenzawn ah.

Then hear thou from the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.

36 Na nuiah a zae o naah (zaehaih tawn ai kami mi doeh om ai) nihcae nuiah palung na phui moe, nihcae to angmacae ih misanawk khaeah na paek, misanawk mah nihcae to kangthla ah maw, kazoi ah maw, misong ah caeh o haih;

If they sin against thee, (for there is no man which sinneth not, ) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a land far off or near;

37 minawk prae ah misong ah oh o nathuem ah, poekhaih amkhraih o moe, misong ah oh o haih prae hoiah nang khaeah, Na hmaa ah ka zae o moeng boeh, kamsoem ai hmuen to ka sak o moe, kahoih ai hmuen ka sak o moeng boeh, tiah lawkthui o nahaeloe,

Yet if they bethink themselves in the land whither they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto thee in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done amiss, and have dealt wickedly;

38 misong ah oh o haih prae thung hoiah palungthin boih hoiah nang khaeah amlaem o let moe, ampanawk khaeah na paek ih prae, na qoih ih vangpui, na hmin hanah ka sak ih im bangah anghaehaih hoiah lawkthui o nahaeloe,

If they return to thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name:

39 na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah nihcae lawkthuihaih hoi tahmen hnikhaih to tahngai pae ah; nihcae to khenzawn ah; na hmaa ah zaehaih sah kaminawk to tahmen ah.

Then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive thy people which have sinned against thee.

40 Aw ka Sithaw, vaihiah na mik padaih loe, hae ahmuen hoiah nang khaeah lawkthuihaih lok to tahngai ah.

Now, my God, let, I beseech thee, thine eyes be open, and let thine ears be attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

41 Aw ka Angraeng Sithaw, vaihi nang hakhaih ahmuen ah, nangmah hoi na thacak Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong hoi nawnto angthawk tahang ah; Aw Angraeng Sithaw, nangmah ih qaimanawk mah pahlonghaih to angkhuk o nasoe loe, nangmah ih kaciim kaminawk loe na hoihhaih ah anghoe o nasoe.

Now therefore arise, O Yhwh God, into thy resting place, thou, and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O Yhwh God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness.

42 Aw Angraeng Sithaw, situi na bawh ih kami to pahnet hmah; na tamna David khaeah paek ih kalen parai tahmenhaih to pahnet hmah, tiah lawk a thuih.

O Yhwh God, turn not away the face of thine anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant.
