2 Setouknae 6
1 Hottelah Solomon ni, BAWIPA ni, puenghoi kingkahmawt e hmonae dawk ka o han telah BAWIPA ni ati.
Then Solomon said: “The Lord has promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
2 Hatei, kai ni ama o nahane im hoi ayungyoe na o nahane hmuen teh ka sak toe atipouh.
But I have built a house to his name, so that he may dwell there forever.”
3 Hahoi Isarelnaw abuemlah a kangdue lahun nah, siangpahrang teh hnukhma lah a kangvawi teh, kangdout e Isarelnaw yawhawinae a poe.
And the king turned his face, and he blessed the entire multitude of Israel, (for the whole crowd was standing and attentive) and he said:
4 Hahoi, Isarel BAWIPA Cathut teh yawhawinae awmseh, A pahni hoi apa Devit koe a dei e lawkkam teh, a kut hoi a kuep sak.
“Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who has completed the work that he spoke to David my father, saying:
5 Izip ram hoi ka tami Isarelnaw ka tâcokhai hnin hoi, Isarel miphunnaw thung dawk e kho dawk hoiyah, ka min o nahane im sak hanelah, ka rawi boihoeh, ka tami Isarelnaw ka uk hane hai ka rawi boihoeh.
‘From the day when I led my people away from the land of Egypt, I did not choose a city from all the tribes of Israel, so that a house would be built in it to my name. And I did not choose any other man, so that he would be the ruler of my people Israel.
6 Hatei, ka min o nahanelah, Jerusalem kho ka rawi teh, ka tami Isarelnaw uk hanelah Devit ka rawi e doeh telah ati.
But I chose Jerusalem, so that my name would be in it. And I chose David, so that I might appoint him over my people Israel.’
7 Apa Devit e lungthung Isarel BAWIPA Cathut min hanelah im sak hane yo a pouk toe.
And though David, my father, had decided that he would build a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel,
8 Hatei, ka min o nahanelah apa Devit koe, ka min hanelah im sak hane na lungthung na pouk. Hettelah na pouk e ahawi poung.
the Lord said to him: ‘In so far as it was your will that you build a house to my name, certainly you have done well in having such a will.
9 Hatei, im teh nang ni na sak mahoeh, na capa na thung hoi ka tâcawt hane ni ka min hanelah im teh a sak han telah yo a dei pouh toe.
But you shall not build the house. Truly, your son, who will go forth from your loins, shall build a house to my name.’
10 BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk teh, a kuep sak toung dawkvah, apa Devit e yueng lah ka kangdue. Hahoi BAWIPA ni lawk a kam tangcoung e patetlah Isarel bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung teh Isarel BAWIPA Cathut min hanelah Bawkim ka sak awh.
Therefore, the Lord has accomplished his word, which he had spoken. And I have risen up in place of my father David, and I sit upon the throne of Israel, just as the Lord spoke. And I have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
11 Hote hmuen koe Isarelnaw hoi sak e BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong teh ka hruek toe telah ati.
And I have placed in it the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord that he formed with the sons of Israel.”
12 Hahoi, BAWIPA e thuengnae khoungroe kung koe kamkhueng e Isarelnaw abuemlae hmaitung vah a kangdue teh kut a dâw.
Then he stood before the altar of the Lord, facing the entire multitude of Israel, and he extended his hands.
13 Solomon ni rahum e tungkhung buet touh asaw dong panga, akaw dong panga, arasang dong thum touh e a sak teh, hote van a kangdue teh, kamkhueng e Isarelnaw abuemlae hmaitung vah khokpakhu cuengkhuem laihoi a tabo teh, kalvan lah kut a dâw.
For indeed, Solomon had made a bronze base, and he had positioned it in the midst of the hall; it held five cubits in length, and five cubits in width, and three cubits in height. And he stood upon it. And next, kneeling down while facing the entire multitude of Israel, and lifting up his palms towards heaven,
14 Oe BAWIPA, Isarel Cathut, kalvan hoi talai rahak nang patet e Cathut alouke awm hoeh. A lungthin abuemlahoi na lamthung ka dawn awh e na sannaw lathueng vah lawkkamnaw na caksak teh ouk na lungma.
he said: “O Lord God of Israel, there is no god like you in heaven or on earth. You preserve covenant and mercy with your servants, who walk before you with all their hearts.
15 Na san apa Devit koe na lawkkam na kuep sak teh, atu na pahni hoi na dei tangcoung e, na kut hoi na kuep sak toe.
You fulfilled for your servant David, my father, whatsoever you had said to him. And you carried out the deed that you promised with your mouth, just as the present time proves.
16 Hatdawkvah, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut, na san apa Devit koe na catounnaw nama patetlah a hringnae dawk a kâhruetcuet thai nahan, kaie kâlawk tarawi awh pawiteh, ka hmalah Isarel bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung hane tami pout mahoeh telah lawk na kam e hah kuep sak haw.
Now then, O Lord God of Israel, fulfill for your servant David, my father, whatsoever you said to him, saying: ‘There shall not fail to be a man from you before me, who will sit upon the throne of Israel, yet only if your sons will guard their ways, and will walk in my law, just as you also have walked before me.’
17 Oe Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut na san Devit koe na dei e lawk kuep sak haw.
And now, O Lord God of Israel, let your word be confirmed that you spoke to your servant David.
18 Hatei, Cathut lah kaawm e nang ni tami koe na o katang han maw. Khenhaw! hettelah kakaw e kalvan patenghai, na khout hoeh, hete ka sak e Bawkim dawk na khout han na maw.
How then is it to be believed that God would dwell with men upon the earth? If heaven and the heavens of the heavens do not contain you, how much less this house that I have built?
19 Hatei, Oe BAWIPA Cathut na san ni na kawnae hoi a ratoumnae thai pouh nateh, na san ni ratoumnae hoi kâheinae a lawkpui lah, na pouk pouh haw.
But it has been done for this only, so that you may look with favor upon the prayer of your servant, and on his supplication, O Lord my God, and so that you may hear the prayers which your servant pours out before you,
20 Hete hmuen koe ka min a kangning han na tie patetlah hete hmuen hoi Bawkim hah karum khodai pout laipalah khenyawn nateh, na san ni hete hmuen koehoi,
and so that you may open your eyes over this house, day and night, over the place where you promised that your name would be invoked,
21 Na san hoi na tami Isarelnaw ni, hete hmuen koehoi a ratoum awh navah, a hei awh e thai pouh haw, na onae hmuen kalvan hoi hnâpakeng pouh haw, na thai torei teh ngaithoum haw.
and so that you may heed the prayer which your servant is praying within it, and so that you may heed the prayers of your servant and of your people Israel. Whoever will pray in this place, listen from your habitation, that is, from heaven, and forgive.
22 Tami buet touh ni a imri koe yonnae a sak telah yon a pen teh, a yonhoehnae thoe a bo teh, lawkkamnae sak hanelah, Bawkim thuengnae khoungroe hmalah a thokhai navah,
If anyone will have sinned against his neighbor, and he arrives to swear against him, and to bind himself with a curse before the altar in this house,
23 kalvan hoi hnâpakeng nateh, tamikayon teh amae yonnae patetlah sung sak hane hoi, tamikalan teh amae lannae patetlah aphu hmu sak hanelah na sannaw koe lawk na ceng pouh haw.
you will hear him from heaven, and you will execute justice for your servants, so that you return, to the iniquitous man, his own way upon his own head, and so that you vindicate the just man, repaying him according to his own justice.
24 Na tami Isarelnaw ni nang na tarannae yon kecu dawk tarannaw hmalah a sung awh navah, nang koe lah bout kamlang awh teh, na min kampangkhai awh teh, hete Bawkim dawk ratoum awh pawiteh,
If your people Israel will have been overwhelmed by their enemies, (for they will sin against you) and having been converted will do penance, and if they will have beseeched your name, and will have prayed in this place,
25 kalvan hoi thai pouh nateh, na tami Isarelnaw e a yonnae ngaithoum pouh haw. Ahnimouh hoi mintoenaw koe na poe e ram dawk, bout cetkhai haw.
you will heed them from heaven, and you will forgive the sin of your people Israel, and you will lead them back into the land that you gave to them and to their fathers.
26 Nang na taran awh teh, yonnae a sak awh kecu dawk kalvan na khan pouh teh khorak laipalah na rek kecu dawkvah, amamae yonnae a ceitakhai awh teh, hete hmuen koehoi a ratoum awh teh na min kampangkhai awh pawiteh,
If the heavens have been closed, so that rain does not fall, because of the sin of the people, and if they will petition you in this place, and confess to your name, and be converted from their sins when you will afflict them,
27 kalvan hoi thai pouh haw. A cei awh nahane lamthung hmawt sak nateh, na san hoi na tami Isarelnaw e yonnae ngaithoum pouh haw, na taminaw râw lah na poe e ram dawk khorak sak haw.
heed them from heaven, O Lord, and forgive the sins of your servants and of your people Israel, and teach them the good way, by which they may advance, and give rain to the land that you gave to your people as a possession.
28 Ram dawk takang a tho teh, Lacik thoseh, ramkenae thoseh, rawkphainae thoseh, samtong thoseh, ahriainaw thoseh, ao teh, tarannaw ni kho a tuk awh teh, pali patawnae hoehpawiteh, patawnae aphunphun a tho navah,
If a famine will have risen up in the land, or pestilence, or fungus, or mildew, or locusts, or beetles, or if enemies will have laid waste to the countryside and will have besieged the gates of the cities, or whatever scourge or infirmity will have pressed upon them,
29 patawnae hoi lungreithainae ka panuek e taminaw ni hete Bawkim dawk a kut a dâw awh teh, amadueng thoseh, tamimaya thoseh a ratoum awh navah,
if anyone from your people Israel, knowing his own scourge and infirmity, will have made supplication and will have extended his hands in this house,
30 Na onae kalvan hoi thai pouh nateh ngaithoum haw. Taminaw e lungthin hoi pouknae pueng teh, nang ni koung na panue. Amamae tawksaknae patetlah lawkceng nateh,
you will heed him from heaven, indeed from your sublime habitation, and you will forgive, and you will repay each one according to his ways, which you know him to hold in his heart. For you alone know the hearts of the sons of men.
31 mintoenaw koe na poe e ram dawk hringyung thung na lamthung a dawn awh vaiteh nang na taki nahane doeh.
So may they fear you, and so may they walk in your ways, during all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which you gave to our fathers.
32 Hahoi alouke miphunnaw ni, ka lentoe poung e na min hoi thaonae kut na dâw kecu dawk ram hlanae koehoi a tho teh, hete Bawkim dawk hoi a ratoum awh navah,
Also, if the outsider, who is not from your people Israel, will have arrived from a far away land, because of your great name, and because of your robust hand and your outstretched arm, and if he will adore in this place,
33 Na onae kalvan hoi thai pouh haw. Jentelnaw ni na kaw e patetlah ahnimouh koe sak pouh haw. Hottelah na tami Isarelnaw patetlah talai van e miphun pueng ni na min a panue awh vaiteh, na taki awh han. Hete Bawkim kasaknaw ni na min a panue awh han.
you will heed him from heaven, your most firm habitation, and you will accomplish all the things about which this sojourner will have called out to you, so that all the people of the earth may know your name, and may fear you, just as your people Israel do, and so that they may know that your name is invoked over this house, which I have built.
34 Na taminaw tarantuk hanelah kâ na poe teh, a cei awh navah, hete na rawi e khopui, nang hanelah ka sak e Bawkim koe lah, kangvawi laihoi ratoum awh pawiteh,
If, having gone out to war against their adversaries along the way that you will send them, your people adore you facing in the direction of this city, which you have chosen, and of this house, which I have built to your name,
35 ahnimae ratoumnae hoi a heinae teh, nang ni kalvan hoi thai pouh nateh, sak pouh haw.
you will heed their prayers from heaven, and their supplications, and you will vindicate them.
36 Ka yon hoeh e tami buet touh hai ao hoeh e patetlah nang koe yonnae a sak awh teh ahnimouh koe na lungkhuek teh, tarannaw kut dawk na poe teh, ram ahlanae koe thoseh, a hnainae koe thoseh san lah a hrawi awh navah,
But if they will have sinned against you (for there is no man who does not sin) and you will have become angry against them, and if you will have delivered them to their enemies, and so they lead them away as captives to a far away land, or even to one that is near,
37 hote ram dawk thongim a bo awh teh, ahnimanaw ni bout a kâhlaw awh teh, kaimanaw ka yon awh toe. Kahawi hoeh e hno, kakhin e hno ka sakpayon awh toe telah lungthin kâthung laihoi a kâhei awh teh,
and if, having been converted in their heart in the land to which they had been led as captives, they will do penance, and beseech you in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned; we have committed iniquity; we have acted unjustly,’
38 A hrawinae tarannaw e ram dawk ao navah, lungthin abuemlahoi nang koe bout kamlang awh teh, mintoenaw na poe e ram hoi na rawi e khopui, na min hanelah ka sak e Bawkim koelah kangvawi laihoi ratoum awh pawiteh,
and if they will have returned to you, with their whole heart and with their whole soul, in the land of their captivity to which they were led away, and if they will adore you in the direction of their own land, which you gave to their fathers, and of the city, which you have chosen, and of the house, which I have built to your name,
39 ahnimae ratoumnae lawk na onae kalvan hoi thai pouh nateh, pouk pouh haw. Nang koe yonnae ka sak e na taminaw e yon hah ngaithoum haw.
from heaven, that is, from your firm habitation, you will heed their prayers, and you will accomplish judgment, and you will forgive your people, even though they are sinners.
40 Oe Cathut na mit padai nateh, na khenhaw. Hete hmuen koehoi ratoumnae lawk na thai pouh haw.
For you are my God. Let your eyes be open, I beg you, and let your ears be attentive to the prayer that is made in this place.
41 Hatdawkvah, Oe BAWIPA Cathut, atu thaw nateh, na thaonae lawkkam thingkong hoi na onae hmuen koe cet leih. Oe BAWIPA Cathut na vaihmanaw rungngangnae puengcang hoi pathoup nateh, na tamikathoungnaw na hawinae dawk konawm sak haw.
Now therefore, rise up, O Lord God, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength. Let your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and let your holy ones rejoice in what is good.
42 Oe BAWIPA Cathut, satui na awi e tami hnamthun takhai hanh. Na san Devit ni coe e pahrenlungmanae hah pahnim hanh, telah a ratoum.
O Lord God, may you not turn away from the face of your Christ. Remember the mercies of your servant, David.”
