列王紀上 8
1 [迎約櫃入聖殿]那時，撒羅滿召集以色列眾長老，各支派的首領和以色列子民各家族族長，都到耶路撒冷，為將上主的約櫃從達味城，即熙雍運上來。
Then he called together Solomon [the] elders of Israel all [the] chiefs of the tribes [the] leaders of the fathers of [the] people of Israel to the king Solomon Jerusalem to bring up [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh from [the] city of David that [is] Zion.
2 以色列全體民眾於是在「厄塔寧」月，即第七月的慶節期中，聚集在撒羅滿王那裏。
And they assembled to the king Solomon every person of Israel in [the] month of Ethanim at the festival that [was] the month seventh.
3 以色列所有的長老來到後，司祭們便抬起約櫃，
And they came all [the] elders of Israel and they lifted the priests the ark.
4 司祭和肋未人分別將上主的約櫃、會幕和帳幕中所有的聖器運了上來。
And they brought up [the] ark of Yahweh and [the] tent of meeting and all [the] utensils of holiness which [were] in the tent and they brought up them the priests and the Levites.
5 撒羅滿王和聚集在他那裏的以色列全會眾，在約櫃前祭殺了牛羊，多得無法計算，不可勝數。
And the king Solomon and all [the] congregation of Israel who were gathered to him with him before the ark [were] sacrificing sheep and cattle which not they were counted and not they were numbered from multitude.
6 司祭們將上主的約櫃抬到殿的內部，即至聖所內，放在革魯賓翅膀下早已預備的地方。
And they brought the priests [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh to place its to [the] innermost room of the house to [the] holy place of the holy places to under [the] wings of the cherubim.
7 革魯賓的翅膀原是伸開的，正遮在約櫃的所在地之上，所以革魯賓在上面正遮著約櫃和抬約櫃的杠桿。
For the cherubim [were] spreading out wings to [the] place of the ark and they covered the cherubim over the ark and over poles its from to above.
8 這杠桿很長，杠桿從內殿前的聖所可以看見，在殿外卻看不見；直到今天還在那裏。
And they were long the poles and they were visible [the] heads of the poles from the holy place on [the] face of the innermost room and not they were visible the outside towards and they have been there until the day this.
9 約櫃內除兩塊石版外，沒有別的東西，是以色列子民出埃及後，上主與他們立約時，梅瑟在曷勒布山放在裏面的。
There not [was] in the ark only [the] two [the] tablets of stone which he placed there Moses at Horeb where he made Yahweh with [the] people of Israel when came out they from [the] land of Egypt.
10 當司祭從聖所出來時，雲彩充滿了上主的殿，
And it was when came out the priests from the holy place and the cloud it filled [the] house of Yahweh.
11 以致為了雲彩，司祭們不能繼續奉職，因為上主的榮耀充滿了上主的殿。
And not they were able the priests to stand to serve because of the cloud for it filled [the] glory of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.
12 當時，撒羅滿便說：「上主曾決定在幽暗之中，
Then he said Solomon Yahweh he has said to dwell in thick darkness.
13 如今我已為你建築了一個居所，作為你永久的住處」撒羅滿向百姓致辭
Certainly I have built a house of loftiness for you a place to dwell in you forever.
14 然後，君王轉過身來，祝福在場站立的以色列全會眾，
And he turned the king face his and he blessed all [the] assembly of Israel and all [the] assembly of Israel [was] standing.
15 說「上主以色列的天主，應受讚美! 因為他親自完成了他親口對我父親達味所作的預許。他曾說過：
And he said [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he spoke with mouth his with David father my and with hand his he has fulfilled saying.
16 自從我領我的百姓以色列出離埃及的那天起，我從未在以色列各支派中選擇一城，建造一座作我名下的殿。但是現在，我選擇了耶路撒冷作我名的居所，揀選了達味作我百姓以色列的領袖。
Since the day when I brought out people my Israel from Egypt not I chose a city from all [the] tribes of Israel to build a house to be name my there and I have chosen David to be over people my Israel.
17 我父親達味原有意為上主以色列天主的名，建造一座殿宇，
And it was with [the] heart of David father my to build a house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
18 但上主卻對我父親達味說：你有意為我的名建造一座殿宇，你這番心意固然很好，
And he said Yahweh to David father my because that it was with heart your to build a house for name my you did well that it was with heart your.
19 但不是你要建造這殿宇，而是你親生的兒子，他要為我的名建造這殿宇。
Only you not you will build the house that except son your who comes out from loins your he he will build the house for name my.
20 現在，上主實現了他說的話，我已如上主所說的，繼承了我父親達味，坐上了以色列的寶座；我也為上主以色列天主的名，建造了這座殿宇，
And he has established Yahweh word his which he spoke and I have arisen in place of David father my and I have sat on [the] throne of Israel just as he spoke Yahweh and I have built the house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
21 在殿內我也為約櫃預備了一個地方，約櫃內存有上主的約版，就是他領我們的祖先出埃及時，與他們所立的約。」祈禱詞
And I have set up there a place for the ark where [is] there [the] covenant of Yahweh which he made with ancestors our when brought out he them from [the] land of Egypt.
22 此後，撒羅滿當著以色列全會眾，立在上主的祭壇前，舉手向天，說：
And he stood Solomon before [the] altar of Yahweh before all [the] assembly of Israel and he spread out palms his the heavens.
23 「上主，以色列的天主! 上天下地沒有一個神能與你相比。你對那全心在你面前行走的僕人，常是守約表示慈愛。
And he said O Yahweh [the] God of Israel there not like you [is] a God in the heavens above and on the earth beneath [who] keeps the covenant and covenant loyalty to servants your who walk before you with all heart their.
24 你對你僕人我父親達味所應許的，你都履行了；你親口應允的，你也親手成就了，正如今天一樣。
Who you have kept to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him and you spoke with mouth your and with hand your you have fulfilled as the day this.
25 上主，以色列的天主，現在求你實踐你向你的僕人，我的父親達味所應許的罷! 你曾說過：只要你的子孫固守正道，在我面前行走，如你一樣在我面前行走，你決不缺人在我面前坐以色列的寶座。
And therefore O Yahweh - [the] God of Israel keep to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him saying not it will be cut off to you a man from to before me [who] sits on [the] throne of Israel only if they will guard descendants your way their to walk before me just as you have walked before me.
26 上主，以色列的天主，現在求你，使你向你僕人我父親達味所應許的話，予以實現罷!
And therefore O God of Israel let it be established please (word your *Q(K)*) which you spoke to servant your David father my.
27 但是，天主實在住在地上嗎﹖看，天和天上的天尚且容不下你，何況我所建造的這座殿宇呢﹖
For ¿ really will he dwell God on the earth here! the heavens and [the] heavens of the heavens not they contain you indeed? for the house this which I have built.
28 上主，我的天主，請垂允你僕人的祈禱和懇求，俯聽你僕人今天在你面前所發的呼號和祈禱!
And you will turn to [the] prayer of servant your and to supplication his O Yahweh God my to listen to the cry of entreaty and to the prayer which servant your [is] praying before you this day.
29 願你的眼睛晝夜垂視這座殿宇，看顧你所說「我的名要永留在此」的地方! 願你垂聽你僕人向這地方要行的祈禱!
To be eyes your open to the house this night and day to the place where you have said it will be name my there to listen to the prayer which he will pray servant your to the place this.
30 願你垂聽你僕人和百姓以色列向這地方所發的哀禱! 願你在天上，從你的居所予以垂聽! 請垂聽與寬恕!
And you will listen to [the] supplication of servant your and people your Israel which they will pray to the place this and you you will listen to [the] place dwelling you to the heavens and you will hear and you will forgive.
31 若有人得罪了自己的鄰人，被迫以咒詞起誓，而來到這殿內，在你的祭壇前起誓，
[that] which He will sin anyone to neighbor his and he will impose on him an oath to put under an oath him and he will come he will swear an oath before altar your in the house this.
32 願你從天上垂聽受理，為你的僕人審斷：懲罰惡人，照他的惡行，報應在他的頭上；宣告義人無罪，照他的正義酬報他。
And you - you will hear the heavens and you will act and you will judge servants your to condemn as guilty a guilty [person] to requite conduct his on own head his and to declare righteous a righteous [person] to give to him according to righteousness his.
33 當你的百姓以色列犯罪得罪了你，在敵人面前被擊敗時，如果他們回心轉意，稱頌你的名，在這殿內巷你祈禱懇求，
When are defeated people your Israel before an enemy that they will sin to you and they will turn back to you and they will praise name your and they will pray and they will seek favor to you in the house this.
34 願你從天上予以垂聽，寬恕你百姓以色列的罪過，領他們回到你賜給他們祖先的地方!
And you you will hear the heavens and you will forgive [the] sin of people your Israel and you will bring back them to the land which you gave to ancestors their.
35 幾時他們犯罪得罪了你，致使天空閉塞不雨；如果他們向這地方祈禱，稱頌你的名，並因你的懲罰而遠離罪過，
When are shut up [the] heavens and not it will be rain for they will sin to you and they will pray to the place this and they will praise name your and from sin their they will turn back! for you will afflict them.
36 求你從天上垂聽，赦免你僕人和你百姓以色列的罪，指給他們應走的正路，使雨降在你賜予你百姓作為基業的地上。
And you - you will hear the heavens and you will forgive [the] sin of servants your and people your Israel that you will teach them the way good which they will walk in it and you will give rain on land your which you gave to people your to an inheritance.
37 如果此地發生饑饉瘟疫，五穀枯萎生霉，或遭受蝗蟲螞蚱，或有敵人犯境圍困門下，或不拘遭受什麼災禍疾病；
Famine if it will be in the land pestilence for it will be blight mildew locust[s] locust[s] for it will be that he will lay siege to it enemy its in [the] land of gates its every plague any sickness.
38 如果你的百姓以色列，個人或團體，心中感到內疚，向這殿伸手祈禱哀求，
Every prayer every supplication which it will belong to any person to all people your Israel who they will know! each [the] plague of own heart his and he will spread out palms his to the house this.
39 願你從天上你的居所，予以垂聽、寬恕、援助，照各人的作為予以賞罰，因為你認識人的心，─惟有你認識所有人子的心，─
And you you will hear the heavens [the] place of dwelling your and you will forgive and you will act and you will give to the person according to all ways his whom you will know heart his for you you know to alone you [the] heart of all [the] children of humankind.
40 使他們在你賜予我們祖先的地上，終生敬畏你。
So that they may fear you all the days which they [will be] alive on [the] surface of the ground which you gave to ancestors our.
41 至於那不屬於你百姓以色列的外方人，如為了你的大名自遠方而來，─
And also to the foreigner who not [is] one of people your Israel he and he will come from a land distant for [the] sake of name your.
42 因為他們聽見了你的大名，和你大能的手及伸開的手臂，─來向這殿祈禱，
For they will hear! name your great and hand your mighty and arm your outstretched and he will come and he will pray to the house this.
43 願你從天上你的居所俯聽，照外方人所請求於你的一切去行：這樣可使地上萬民都認識你的名而敬畏你，如同你的百姓以色列一樣，使他們知道我所建造的這殿，是屬於你名下的。
You you will hear the heavens [the] place dwelling you and you will do according to all that he will call to you the foreigner so that they may know! all [the] peoples of the earth name your to fear you like people your Israel and to know that name your it has been called on the house this which I have built.
44 你的人民，如果在你派遣他們所走的路上，與敵人交戰，而他們向你所揀選的這城，向我為你名建造的這殿，祈求上主，
If it will go forth people your for battle on enemy its by the way which you will send them and they will pray to Yahweh [the] direction of the city which you have chosen it and the house which I have built for name your.
45 願你從天上俯聽他們的祈禱和哀求，為他們住持正義。
And you will hear the heavens prayer their and supplication their and you will do justice their.
46 如果他們犯罪得罪了你，─因為沒有不犯罪的人，─而你向他們發怒，將他們交於敵人，讓敵人將他們擄到或遠或近的敵人地域內，
If they will sin to you for there not [is] anyone who not he sins and you will be angry with them and will you deliver up them before an enemy and they will take captive them captors their to [the] land of the enemy distant or near.
47 他們若在被擄往的地方，回心轉意，在充軍之地，求你說：我們犯了罪，我們行了惡，做了背理的事；
And they will bring back to heart their in the land where they have been taken captive there and they will repent - and they will seek favor to you in [the] land of captors their saying we have sinned and we have done wrong we have acted wickedly.
48 如果他們在俘擄他們的敵人地域內，全心全意歸向你，向你賜給他們祖先的地方，向你所揀選的這城，和我為你名建造的這殿哀求你，
And they will return to you with all heart their and with all being their in [the] land of enemies their who they have taken captive them and they will pray to you [the] direction of land their which you gave to ancestors their the city which you have chosen and the house which (I have built *Q(K)*) for name your.
49 願你從天上你的居所，俯聽他們的祈禱和懇求，並為他們主持正義，
And you will hear the heavens [the] place dwelling you prayer their and supplication their and you will do justice their.
50 寬恕得罪你的百姓，寬恕他們違犯你的一切過犯，使他們在俘擄他們的敵人面前獲得憐憫，對他們表示同情，
And you will forgive people your who they have sinned to you and all transgressions their which they transgressed against you and you will make them into [objects of] compassion before captors their and they will have compassion on them.
51 因為他們究竟是你的百姓，是你從埃及，由鎔鐵爐中領出來的產業。
For [are] people your and inheritance your they whom you brought out from Egypt from [the] midst of [the] furnace of iron.
52 願你常睜眼垂顧你僕人的哀求，你百姓以色列的哀求，他們無論何時呼號你，願你都予以垂聽!
To be eyes your open to [the] supplication of servant your and to [the] supplication of people your Israel to listen to them in all calling they to you.
53 我主上主，因為你曾將他們從地上的萬民中選拔出來，作你的產業，正如你在領我們祖先出離埃及時，藉你的僕人梅瑟所聲明的。」祝福詞
For you you have separated them for yourself to an inheritance from all [the] peoples of the earth just as you spoke by [the] hand of - Moses servant your when bringing out you ancestors our from Egypt O Lord Yahweh.
54 撒羅滿跪在上主的祭壇前，舉手向天，祈禱哀求上主完畢，就起來，
And it was - when had finished Solomon to pray to Yahweh all the prayer and the supplication this he stood up from to before [the] altar of Yahweh from bowing down on knees his and palms his [were] spread out the heavens.
55 立著，高聲祝福以色列全會眾說：「
And he stood and he blessed all [the] assembly of Israel a voice great saying.
56 上主應受讚美! 因為他照自己所應許的，使自己的百姓以色列獲得了安居；凡他藉著自己的僕人梅瑟所應許賜福的話，一句也沒有落空。
[be] blessed Yahweh who he has given a resting place to people his Israel according to all that he has spoken not it has fallen a word one from every word his good which he spoke by [the] hand of Moses servant his.
57 願上主我們的天主與我們同在，有如與我們的祖先同在一樣：不離開我們，也不拋棄我們。
May he be Yahweh God our with us just as he was with ancestors our may not he forsake us and may not he abandon us.
58 願他使我們的心歸向他，履行他的一切道路，恪守他吩咐我們祖先的誡命、律例和典章。
To incline heart our to him to walk in all ways his and to keep commandments his and statutes his and judgments his which he commanded ancestors our.
59 願我在上主面前所作的懇切禱詞，晝夜在上主我們的天主面前，好使他天天維護他僕人和他的百姓以色列，
And may they be words my these which I have sought favor before Yahweh near to Yahweh God our by day and night to do - [the] justice of servant his and [the] justice of people his Israel a matter of a day in day its.
60 使地上萬民都知道：只有上主是天主，他以外沒有別的神。
So as to know all [the] peoples of the earth that Yahweh he [is] God there not [is] still more.
61 但願我們的心全歸於上主我們的天主，遵行他的律例，恪守他的誡命，如停今天一樣。」行奉獻禮
And it will be heart your complete with Yahweh God our to walk in statutes his and to keep commandments his as the day this.
62 此後，君王和全以色列，一同在上主面前祭殺了犧牲。
And the king and all Israel with him [were] sacrificing a sacrifice before Yahweh.
63 撒羅滿祭殺了牛兩萬二千頭，羊十二萬隻，獻於上主，作為和平祭；君王和全以色列子民，就這樣為上主的殿舉行了奉獻禮。
And he sacrificed Solomon [the] sacrifice of the peace offerings which he sacrificed to Yahweh cattle twenty and two thousand and sheep one hundred and twenty thousand and they dedicated [the] house of Yahweh the king and all [the] people of Israel.
64 當天，君王又祝聖了上主殿前的內院，在那裏奉獻了全燔祭、素祭與和平祭的脂油，因為上主面前的銅祭壇太小，容不下全燔祭、素祭及和平祭的脂油。
On the day that he consecrated the king [the] middle of the court which [was] before [the] house of Yahweh for he offered there the burnt offering and the grain offering and [the] fat of the peace offerings for [the] altar of bronze which [was] before Yahweh [was too] small for containing the burnt offering and the grain offering and [the] fat of the peace offerings.
65 同時，撒羅滿有舉行了慶節，與從哈瑪特渡口到埃及小河的全以色列人，舉行了盛大集會，在上主我們的天主面前，舉行慶節七天【又七天，共十四天。】
And he observed Solomon at the time that - the festival and all Israel with him an assembly great from Lebo Hamath - to [the] wadi of Egypt before Yahweh God our seven days and seven days four-teen day[s].
66 第八天，君王遣散了百姓；他們為君王祝福後，各自回了本家，對上主向他的僕人達味，他的百姓以色列，所施的種種恩寵，都非常高興歡喜。
On the day eighth he sent away the people and they blessed the king and they went to tents their joyful and good of heart on all the good which he had done Yahweh to David servant his and to Israel people his.
