2 Weche Mag Ndalo 6
1 Eka Solomon nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osewacho ni enodag ei bor polo motimo mudho.
Then Solomon said: “The Lord has promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
2 Asegeroni hekalu marahuma, kama inidagie nyaka chiengʼ.”
But I have built a house to his name, so that he may dwell there forever.”
3 Kane oganda jo-Israel duto ochungʼ kanyo, ruoth nolokore mogwedhogi.
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 Eka nowacho niya, “Pak obed ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, mosetimo gi lwete gima ne osingo gi dhoge ni Daudi wuonwa. Nikech nowacho niya,
“Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who has completed the work that he spoke to David my father, saying:
5 ‘Chakre ndalo mane agolo joga koa Misri pok ayiero dala maduongʼ e dhoot moro amora mar Israel mondo oger hekalu kanyo ni Nyinga, to aseyiero Daudi mondo otel ni joga Israel.
‘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 To koro aseyiero Jerusalem mondo obed kama Nyinga betie kendo aseyiero Daudi mondo otel ni joga Israel.’
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 “Daudi wuora noketo e chunye mondo oger hekalu moluongo nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel.
And though David, my father, had decided that he would build a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel,
8 To Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Daudi wuora niya, ‘Nitimo maber mondo ibed gi wach gero hekalu ni nyinga e chunyi.
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 Kata kamano in ok niger hekalu, to wuodi, ma en ringri gi rembi iwuon; en ema noger hekalu ni Nyinga.’
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 “Jehova Nyasaye oserito singruok mane otimo. Asekawo loch wuora Daudi kendo asebet e kom loch mar Israel mana kaka Nyasaye nosingo kendo asegero hekalu ni Nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel.
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 Aseketo Sandug Muma ma moketie singruok mane Jehova Nyasaye otimo e kinde gi jo-Israel.”
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 Eka Solomon nochungʼ e nyim kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye e nyim oganda duto mar jo-Israel kendo norieyo bedene kochomo malo.
Then he stood before the altar of the Lord, facing the entire multitude of Israel, and he extended his hands.
13 Noseloso raidhi mar mula ma borne gi lachne romo fut aboro to borne kadhi malo en fut abich mokete e dier laru ma oko. Ne ochungʼ e raidhino mi ogoyo chonge piny e nyim oganda duto mar jo-Israel kendo norieyo bedene kochomo polo.
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 Kowacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, onge Nyasaye moro e polo kata e piny machal kodi. In e Nyasaye marito singruok mar herane ni jotichne maluwo yoreni gi chunygi duto.
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 Iserito singruokni mane itimo gi jatichni Daudi wuora, ne isingori gi dhogi kendo isechopo singruokno gi lweti, mana kaka en kawuononi.
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 “To koro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel rit singruok mane itimo gi jatichni Daudi wuora kiwachone niya, ‘Ok inibed maonge ngʼama bet e nyima e kom loch Israel ka nyikwayi onono kaka giwuotho e nyima kaka chikna dwaro mana kaka isetimo.’
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 To koro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel yie mondo wach mane isingo ni jatichni Daudi wuora otimre mana kaka ne isingo.
And now, O Lord God of Israel, let your word be confirmed that you spoke to your servant David.
18 “To bende Nyasaye nyalo dak e piny kod ji? Kata polo malo kata polo mabor ok nyal romi, to koro hekalu mageroni to diromi nade!
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 Kata kamano chik iti ni lamo jatichni gi kwayone mar ngʼwono yaye Jehova Nyasaye Nyasacha. Winji ywak gi lemo ma jatichni lamo e nyimi.
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 Mad wangʼi rang hekaluni odiechiengʼ kod otieno, kama niwacho ni Nyingi nobedie. Yie iwinji lemo ma jatichni lamo kochomo odni.
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 Winji lamo mar jatichni kaachiel gi jogi Israel ka gilamo ka gichomo odni. Winji gi e polo kar dakni kendo kiwinjo to iwenwa richowa.
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 “Ka ngʼato oketho ni wadgi kendo dwarore ni mondo okwongʼre kendo obiro mokwongʼore e nyim kendo mar misango manie hekaluni,
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 to iwinji gi e polo kendo itim kaka owinjore. Ngʼad bura e kind jotichni kikumo joketho kendo iket richogi e wigi bende joma onge ketho iket kare kaluwore gi timgi makare.
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 “Ka jogi Israel olo e lweny gi jowasikgi nikech gisekethoni to bangʼe gilokore mi gipako nyingi, ka gilamo kendo gikwayo e hekaluni,
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 to iwinjgi gi e polo kendo iwe richo jogi Israel kendo iduog-gi e piny mane imiyogi kod kweregi.
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 “Ka polo olor kendo koth onge nikech jogi osekethoni to ka gilemo kaeni ka gipako nyingi kendo ka gilokore giweyo richogi nikech isekelonegi chandruok,
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 to yie mondo iwinjgi gie polo kendo iwene jotichni ma jo-Israel richogi. Puonjgi yo makare mar dak kendo iornegi koth e piny mane imiyo jogi kaka girkeni margi.
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 “Ka kech kata dera omako piny kata ka abach omako cham kata tuo ewi dongo, kata ka bonyo kata kungu, kata ka jowasigu olworo miechgi madongo, kata ka midekre kata tuo omakogi,
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 to ka ngʼato kuom jogi ma jo-Israel olemo kata okwayi, ka gingʼeyo gima chando chunygi kod lit ka girieyo bedegi kochomo hekaluni,
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 to yie iwinji gie polo kama idakie. Wenegi richogi kendo tim ne ngʼato ka ngʼato gima owinjore gi gik motimo nikech ingʼeyo chunygi (nikech in kendi ema ingʼeyo chuny dhano),
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 mondo omi gilwori kendo giwuoth e yoreni ndalogi duto ma gin-go e piny mane imiyo kwerewa.
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 “To kuom jadak ma ok achiel kuom jogi Israel moa e piny mabor nikech nyingi maduongʼ kendo lweti maratego kod badi marabora moriere, ka gibiro ma gilemo ka gichomo hekaluni,
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 to yie mondo iwinji gie polo kama idakie kendo tim gimoro amora ma jadakno okwayi mondo ogendini duto mag piny ongʼe nyingi kendo oluori mana kaka jogi Israel kendo mondo gingʼe ni ot ma asegeroni luongo nyingi.
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 “Ka jogi odhi kedo gi jowasikgi kamoro amora ma ibiro orogie ka gilami kagichomo dalani miseyiero kendo hekalu masegero maluongo nyingi,
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 to yie iwinji gie polo lamogi kod kwayogi kendo konygi.
you will heed their prayers from heaven, and their supplications, and you will vindicate them.
36 “To ka giketho e nyimi, nimar onge ngʼato kata achiel ma ok jaketho mi ikecho kodgi kendo ichiwogi e lwet wasigu mi giterogi e twech e piny mabor kata machiegni,
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 kendo ka chunygi olokore e piny mane otergi e twech kendo giweyo richogi kendo gikwayi e piny wasikgi mane otweyogi kagiwacho niya, ‘Wasetimo richo kendo waseketho bende wasetimo mamono;’
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 to ka gidwogo iri gi chunygi duto kod ngimagi duto e piny mane otergi e twech, kendo gilemo ka girango pinygi mane imiyo kweregi, kod dala maduongʼ miseyiero kod hekalu ma asegero ni nyingi,
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 to yie iwinji lemogi gi kwayogi gie polo kar dakni kendo ikonygi. Kendo iwe ni jogi mosetimo richo e nyimi.
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 “Koro Nyasacha, yie mondo wengegi oyawre kendo itgi mondo owinj maber lemo ma wachiwo kaeni.
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 “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, koro chungʼ malo kendo idonj e kar yweyo,
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 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kik ikwed ngʼatno misewiro.
O Lord God, may you not turn away from the face of your Christ. Remember the mercies of your servant, David.”
