1 Kings 8

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, to king Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the city of David, which is Zion.

तब सोलोमनले इस्राएलका सबै धर्म-गुरु, कुल-कुलका नायकहरू र इस्राएलका परिवारका मुख्य-मुख्य व्यक्तिहरूलाई सियोन अर्थात् दाऊदको सहरबाट परमप्रभुको सन्दुक ल्याउनलाई यरूशलेममा जम्मा गरे ।

2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

एतानीम महिना अर्थात् सातौँ महिनामा चाडको अवसरमा इस्राएलका सबै मानिस सोलोमन राजाको सामु भेला भए ।

3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.

इस्राएलका सबै धर्म-गुरु आए, अनि पुजारीहरूले सन्दुक उठाए ।

4 And they brought up the ark of Jehovah, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the tent; even these the priests and the Levites brought up.

तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक, भेट हुने पाल र पालभित्र भएका सजावटका सबै पवित्र सामान ल्याए । पुजारी र लेवीहरूले यी सामानहरू ल्याएका थिए ।

5 And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

सोलोमन राजा र इस्राएलका सारा समुदाय सन्दुकको सामु भेला भए, अनि तिनीहरूले असङ्ख्य भेडाहरू र गोरुहरू बलिदान चढाए ।

6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah to its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुको करारको सन्दुकलाई त्यसको उचित स्थान अर्थात् करूबहरूको छायामुनि मन्दिरको महा-पवित्रस्थानमा लगेर राखे ।

7 For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves of it above.

किनकि करूबहरूले सन्दुक राखिएको ठाउँको माथि आ-आफ्ना पखेटा फैलाएका थिए, र ती पखेटाले सन्दुक र त्यसका डन्डाहरूमाथि छाया पारेका थिए ।

8 And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the holy place before the oracle. But they were not seen outside. And there they are to this day.

यी डन्डाहरू यति लामा-लामा थिए, कि तिनका टुप्पाहरू महा-पवित्रस्थानको सामु पवित्रस्थानबाट देख्न सकिन्थे, तर तिनलाई बाहिरबाट भने देख्न सकिँदैनथ्यो । ती आजको दिनसम्म त्यहीँ छन् ।

9 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb when Jehovah made a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

इस्राएलीहरू मिश्र देशबाट आउँदा परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूसित करार बाँध्नुहुँदा होरेब पर्वतमा मोशाले दुईवटा शिला-पाटी सन्दुकभित्र राखेका थिए, र सन्दुकभित्र यी शिला-पाटीहरू मात्र थिए ।

10 And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of Jehovah,

पुजारीहरू पवित्रस्थानबाट बाहिर आउँदा परमप्रभुको मन्दिर बादलले भरियो ।

11 so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud, for the glory of Jehovah filled the house of Jehovah.

बादलको कारणले पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्न सकेनन् किनकि परमप्रभुको महिमाले उहाँको मन्दिर भरिएको थियो ।

12 Then Solomon spoke, Jehovah has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

तब सोलोमनले भने, “परमप्रभु बाक्लो बादलमा बस्नुहुनेथियो भनी उहाँले भन्नुभएको थियो,

13 I have surely built thee a house of habitation, a place for thee to dwell in forever.

तर तपाईं सदासर्वदै रहनलाई मैले एउटा शोभनीय वासस्थान निर्माण गरेको छु ।”

14 And the king turned his face around, and blessed all the assembly of Israel. And all the assembly of Israel stood.

तब राजा फर्केर उभिरहेका इस्राएलका सारा समुदायलाई आशिष् दिए ।

15 And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and has with his hand fulfilled it, saying,

तिनले भने, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुको स्तुति होस् जो मेरा पिता दाऊदसित बोल्नुभयो, र जसले यसो भन्दै आफ्नै हातले यो कुरा पुरा गर्नुभएको छ,

16 Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, that my name might be there, but I chose David to be over my people Israel.

'मैले मेरो जाति इस्राएललाई मिश्रबाट बाहिर ल्याएको दिनदेखि मेरो नाउँ राख्नको लागि मैले इस्राएलका सबै कुलबाट कुनै पनि सहर छानिनँ ।

17 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel.

तथापि मेरो जाति इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न मैले दाऊदलाई छानेँ ।' इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुको नाउँमा एउटा भवन निर्माण गर्ने इच्छा मेरा पिता दाऊदको ह्रदयमा थियो ।

18 But Jehovah said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house for my name, thou did well that it was in thy heart.

तर परमप्रभुले मेरा पिता दाऊदलाई भन्नुभयो, 'तेरो ह्रदयमा मेरो नाउँमा एउटा भवन निर्माण गर्ने इच्छा राम्रै छ ।

19 Nevertheless thou shall not build the house, but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.

तरै पनि तैँले त्यो भवन बनाउने छैनस्, बरु तेरो छोरो अर्थात् तेरो आफ्नै रगत र मासुको छोरोले मेरो नाउँमा भवन बनाउने छ ।'

20 And Jehovah has established his word that he spoke, for I have risen up in the place of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah promised, and have built the house for the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel.

परमप्रभुले आफूले भन्नुभएको वचन पुरा गर्नुभएको छ, किनकि म मेरा पिता दाऊदको ठाउँमा खडा भएको छु, र परमप्रभुले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ म इस्राएलको सिंहासनमा बसेको छु । मैले इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुको नाउँमा घर बनाएको छु ।

21 And there I have set a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of Jehovah, which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.

मैले त्यहाँ सन्दुकको निम्ति ठाउँ बनाएको छु जसमा परमप्रभुको करार राखिएको छ । उहाँले मिश्रबाट हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई ल्याउनुहँदा उहाँले तिनीहरूसित यो करार बाँध्नुभएको थियो ।”

22 And Solomon stood before the altar of Jehovah in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven.

सोलोमन परमप्रभुको वेदी र इस्राएलका सारा समुदायको सामुन्ने खडा भए, र स्वर्गतिर आफ्ना हात फैलाए ।

23 And he said, O Jehovah, the God of Israel, there is no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with thy servants, who walk before thee with all their heart,

तिनले भने, “हे इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु, माथि स्वर्गमा वा तल पृथ्वीमा तपाईंजस्तो कुनै ईश्वर छैन जसले आफ्ना सारा ह्रदयले तपाईंको अगि हिँड्ने तपाईंका दासहरूसित करारको विश्वसनीयता कायम राख्नुहुन्छ ।

24 who have kept with thy servant David my father that which thou did promise him. Yea, thou spoke with thy mouth, and have fulfilled it with thy hand, as it is this day.

तपाईंले आफ्ना दास अर्थात् मेरा पिता दाऊदसित प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको वचन पुरा गर्नुभएको छ । हो, तपाईंले आफ्नो मुखले बोल्नुभयो र त्यसलाई आफ्नो हातले पुरा गर्नुभयो जस्तो आज हुन आएको छ ।

25 Now therefore, O Jehovah, the God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou have promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only thy sons take heed to their way, to walk before me as thou have walked before me.

अब हे इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु, तपाईंका दास अर्थात् मेरा पिता दाऊदसित प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको वचन पुरा गर्नुहोस् । तपाईंले भन्नुभयो, 'तँ मेरो अगि हिँडेजस्तै तेरा सन्तानहरू मेरो अगि हिँड्न होसियार भए भने इस्राएलको सिंहासनमा बस्न कुनै मानिसको अभाव हुने छैन ।'

26 Now therefore, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be verified, which thou spoke to thy servant David my father.

अब हे इस्राएलका परमेश्वर, तपाईंले आफ्ना दास अर्थात् मेरा पिता दाऊदसित बोल्नुभएको तपाईंको वचन पुरा होस् ।

27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee. How much less this house that I have built!

तर के परमेश्वर साँच्चै नै पृथ्वीमा बस्नुहुन्छ र? सारा विश्व र आकाशमा पनि तपाईं अटाउनुहुन्न भने मैले बनाएको यस मन्दिरमा तपाईं कसरी अटाउन सक्नुहुन्छ त!

28 Yet have thou respect to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to hearken to the cry and to the prayer which thy servant prays before thee this day,

तरै पनि हे परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर, तपाईंका दासको यस प्रार्थना र बिन्तीलाई आदर गरिदिनुहोस् । आज तपाईंका दासले तपाईंको सामु टक्र्याउने प्रार्थना र पुकारालाई सुनिदिनुहोस् ।

29 that thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place whereof thou have said, My name shall be there, to hearken to the prayer which thy servant shall pray toward this place.

रातदिन यस मन्दिरतर्फ तपाईंका आँखा खुला रहोस् जुन ठाउँको बारेमा तपाईंले भन्नुभएको छ, 'त्यहाँ मेरो नाउँ र उपस्थिति रहने छ' ताकि तपाईंका दासले यस ठाउँतर्फ चढाएका प्रार्थनाहरू तपाईंले सुन्नुभएको होस् ।

30 And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place. Yea, hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place, and when thou hear, forgive.

त्यसैले हामीले यस ठाउँतर्फ फर्केर प्रार्थना गर्दा तपाईंका दास र तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलको बिन्तीलाई सुनिदिनुहोस् । हो, तपाईं बसोबास गर्नुहुने ठाउँ अर्थात् स्वर्गबाट सुन्नुहोस् । तपाईंले सुन्नुभएपछि क्षमा दिनुहोस् ।

31 If a man sins against his neighbor, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and he comes and swears before thine altar in this house,

कुनै मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीको विरुद्धमा पाप गरी त्यसलाई शपथ खान लगाइयो र त्यसले यस मन्दिरभित्रको वेदीको सामु आई शपथ खायो भने

32 then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his own head, and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

स्वर्गबाट सुनेर जवाफ दिनुहोस् । दोषीहरूलाई दण्डाज्ञा दिँदै तिनीहरूले गरेको खराबी तिनीहरूकै शिरमाथि खन्याउँदै आफ्ना दासहरूको न्याय गर्नुहोस् । निर्दोषहरूलाई दोषी नठहराउनुहोस् र तिनीहरूको धार्मिकताअनुसार तिनीहरूको प्रतिफल दिनुहोस् ।

33 When thy people Israel are smitten down before the enemy because they have sinned against thee, if they turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication to thee in this house,

तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेकाले तिनीहरू शत्रुबाट पराजित हुँदा तिनीहरू तपाईंकहाँ फर्की तपाईंको नाउँलाई पुकारे, प्रार्थना गरे र तपाईंको मन्दिरमा क्षमाको अनुरोध गरे भने

34 then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again to the land which thou gave to their fathers.

तब स्वर्गमा सुन्नुहोस् र तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलको पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनुभएको देशमा तिनीहरूलाई फर्काएर ल्याउनुहोस् ।

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

मानिसहरूले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेकाले आकाश बन्द भई वृष्टि रोकिँदा तिनीहरूले यस ठाउँतर्फ फर्केर प्रार्थना गरी तपाईंको नाउँ पुकारे र तिनीहरूलाई कष्ट आउँदा तिनीहरूका पापबाट फर्के भने

36 then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and send rain upon thy land, which thou have given to thy people for an inheritance.

स्वर्गमा सुन्नुहोस् र तपाईंका दासहरूसाथै तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलको पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस् अनि तिनीहरू कसरी चल्नुपर्ने हो भनी तिनीहरूलाई असल तरिका सिकाउनुहोस् । सम्पत्तिको रूपमा तपाईंले आफ्नो जातिलाई दिनुभएको तपाईंको देशमा वृष्टि ल्याइदिनुहोस् ।

37 If there be famine in the land, if there be pestilence, if there be blight, mildew, locust or caterpillar, if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities, whatever plague, whatever sickness there be,

जब देशमा अनिकाल पर्दा वा रोग, विपत्ति, वनस्पति ओइलाउने ढुसी वा शीत वा सलहहरू वा झुसिलकिराहरू आउँदा वा तिनीहरूको कुनै सहरमा मूलद्वारमा शत्रुले आक्रमण गर्‍यो वा त्यहाँ कुनै विपत्ति वा रोग लाग्दा,

38 whatever prayer and supplication be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house,

कुनै एक व्यक्ति वा तपाईंको सारा जाति इस्राएलले हरेकले आफ्नो ह्रदयको दुःख सम्झेर आफ्नो हात यस मन्दिरतिर उचाली प्रार्थना र बिन्ती चढायो भने

39 then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place, and forgive, and do, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou know (for thou, even thou only, know the hearts of all the sons of men),

स्वर्गबाट सुन्नुहोस् जहाँ तपाईं बस्नुहुन्छ, तिनीहरूलाई क्षमा दिनुहोस् र हरेकले गरेअनुसार त्यसको प्रतिफल दिनुहोस् । किनकि तपाईंले मात्र सारा मानव-जातिका ह्रदय जान्नुहुन्छ ।

40 that they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gave to our fathers.

तपाईंले हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनुभएको यस देशमा तिनीहरू बस्दा तिनीहरूको जीवनभर तिनीहरू तपाईंदेखि डराऊन् भन्नाका लागि यसै गर्नुहोस् ।

41 Moreover concerning the foreigner who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake

यसको अतिरिक्त, तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलभन्दा बाहिरको कुनै परदेशी तपाईंको नाउँको कारणले टाढाको देशबाट आएको छ–

42 (for they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy mighty hand, and of thine outstretched arm), when he shall come and pray toward this house,

किनकि त्यसले तपाईंको महान् नाउँ, तपाईंको शक्तिशाली हात र तपाईंको फैलाइएको पाखुराको बारेमा सुनेको छ– र यस मन्दिरतर्फ हेरेर प्रार्थना चढाएको छ भने

43 hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to thee for, that all the peoples of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as does thy people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.

तब स्वर्गबाट सुन्नुहोस् जहाँ तपाईं बस्नुहुन्छ अनि त्यस परदेशीले मागेको कुरा दिनुहोस् । तपाईंले आफ्नो जाति इस्राएललाई गरेजस्तै पृथ्वीका सबै जातिले तपाईंको नाउँलाई जानी तपाईंदेखि डराऊन् भन्ने हेतुले यसो गर्नुहोस् । मैले बनाएको यो घरमा तपाईंको नाउँ राखिएको छ भनी तिनीहरूले जान्न सकून् भनेर यसो गर्नुहोस् ।

44 If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, by whatever way thou shall send them, and they pray to Jehovah toward the city which thou have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name,

तपाईंले जुनसुकै बाटो भएर पठाउनुभए तापनि तपाईंको जाति शत्रुको विरुद्धमा लड्न बाहिर गएको छ, र हे परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूले तपाईंले चुन्नुभएको सहर र मैले तपाईंको नाउँमा बनाएको मन्दिरतर्फ हेरेर तपाईंमा प्रार्थना चढाएका छन् भने

45 then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.

स्वर्गमा तिनीहरूका प्रार्थना र बिन्ती सुनेर तिनीहरूलाई मदत गर्नुहोस् ।

46 If they sin against thee (for there is no man that sins not), and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to the land of the enemy, afar off or near,

पाप नगर्ने कोही नभएकोले तिनीहरूले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका छन्, र तपाईं तिनीहरूसित रिसाउनुभई तिनीहरूलाई शत्रुको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभएको छ र शत्रुहरूले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूको देशबाट धेरै टाढाको देशमा निर्वासनमा लगेका छन्,

47 yet if they shall rethink themselves in the land where they are carried captive, and turn again, and make supplication to thee in the land of those who carried them captive, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have dealt wickedly,

र तिनीहरू निर्वासित भएर अर्कै देशमा लगिएका रहेछन् भनी तिनीहरूले थाहा पाएपछि तिनीहरूले पश्चात्ताप गरेर तिनीहरूलाई निर्वासित गर्नेहरूको देशबाट तिनीहरूले तपाईंको निगाह खोजेका छन् र तिनीहरूले 'हामीले बाटो बिराई पाप गरेका छौँ, हामीले दुष्टतापूर्वक व्यवहार गरेका छौँ'

48 if they return to thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies who carried them captive, and pray to thee toward their land, which thou gave to their fathers, the city which thou have chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name,

भनेर भनेमा र तिनीहरूलाई निर्वासित बनाएर लैजानेहरू अर्थात् तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूको देशमा तिनीहरूका सारा ह्रदय र सारा प्राणले तिनीहरू तपाईंकहाँ फर्के भने र तिनीहरूले तपाईंले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनुभएको तपाईंको देश र तपाईंले छान्नुभएको सहर र मैले तपाईंको नाउँमा बनाएको यस मन्दिरतर्फ हेरी तपाईंलाई प्रार्थना चढाए भने,

49 then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling-place, and maintain their case,

तब तपाईंको वासस्थान स्वर्गबाट मदतको लागि तिनीहरूले चढाएको प्रार्थना र अनुरोध सुन्नुहोस् । यसरी तिनीहरूसितको सम्बन्ध पुनर्स्थापित हुने छ ।

50 and forgive thy people who have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions by which they have transgressed against thee, and give them compassion before those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them

तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका तपाईंको जातिलाई क्षमा दिनुहोस्, र तिनीहरूले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा गरेका सबै अधर्म क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस् अनि तिनीहरूका विजेताहरूका सामु तिनीहरूलाई दया देखाउनुहोस् र तिनीहरूका विजेताहरूलाई पनि तिनीहरूमाथि दया देखाउन लगाइदिनुहोस् ।

51 (for they are thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou brought forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron);

तिनीहरू तपाईंले चुन्नुभएका तपाईंका जाति हुन् जसलाई तपाईंले फलाम गल्ने भट्टीको बिचबाट अर्थात् मिश्रबाट छुटकारा दिनुभयो ।

52 that thine eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and to the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken to them whenever they cry to thee.

तपाईंका दास र तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलले जुनसुकै बेला तपाईंलाई पुकारा गर्दा तिनीहरूको कुरा सुन्न तपाईंका आँखा खुला रहून् ।

53 For thou separated them from among all the peoples of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spoke by Moses thy servant when thou brought our fathers out of Egypt, O lord Jehovah.

किनकि हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूलाई मिश्रबाट ल्याउनुहुँदा तपाईंका दास मोशालाई व्याख्या गर्नुभएझैँ तपाईंकै हुन र तपाईंका प्रतिज्ञाहरू प्राप्त गर्न तपाईंले नै तिनीहरूलाई पृथ्वीका सबै जातिबाट अलग गर्नुभयो ।”

54 And it was so, that, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to Jehovah, he arose from before the altar of Jehovah, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread forth toward heaven.

जब सोलोमनले परमप्रभुको सामु यी सबै प्रार्थना र बिन्ती चढाएर सिद्ध्याए, तब तिनी परमप्रभुको वेदीबाट उठे जहाँ तिनले घुँडा टेकेर आफ्ना हात स्वर्गतिर फैलाएका थिए ।

55 And he stood, and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying,

“परमप्रभुको स्तुति होस्, जसले आफ्ना सबै प्रतिज्ञा पुरा गरी आफ्नो जाति इस्राएललाई विश्राम दिनुभएको छ ।

56 Blessed be Jehovah, who has given rest to his people Israel according to all that he promised. There has not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by Moses his servant.

परमप्रभुले आफ्ना दास मोशासित गर्नुभएका असल प्रतिज्ञाहरूमध्ये एउटै पनि विफल भएको छैन ।

57 Jehovah our God be with us as he was with our fathers. Let him not leave us, nor forsake us,

परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूसित हुनुभएझैँ हामीसित पनि होऊन् । उहाँले हामीलाई कहिल्यै नछोडून्, न त त्यागून् ।

58 that he may incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his ordinances, which he commanded our fathers.

उहाँका सबै मार्गमा जिउन, र उहाँले हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनुभएका उहाँका आदेशहरूसाथै निर्देशनहरू अनि विधिविधानहरू पालन गर्न उहाँले हाम्रा ह्रदय आफूतर्फ फर्काऊन् ।

59 And let these my words, with which I have made supplication before Jehovah, be near to Jehovah our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel, as every day shall require,

मैले परमप्रभुको सामु चढाएका यी वचनहरू रातदिन परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरको नजिक रहून् ताकि दिनप्रतिदिनको खाँचोअनुसार तपाईंको दास र तपाईंको जाति इस्राएलको कारण मदत मिलोस्,

60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that Jehovah, he is God; there is none else.

ताकि पृथ्वीका सबै जातिले परमप्रभु नै परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँबाहेक अर्को ईश्वर छैन भनी जानून् ।

61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.

त्यसकारण, आजको दिनमा झैँ परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरका विधिविधानहरू र उहाँका आज्ञाहरू पालन गर्न तिमीहरूको ह्रदय उहाँप्रति साँचा होऊन् ।

62 And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before Jehovah.

त्यसैले राजा र तिनीसँगै सारा इस्राएलले परमप्रभुको निम्ति बलिदानहरू चढाए ।

63 And Solomon offered for the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to Jehovah, twenty-two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the sons of Israel dedicated the house of Jehovah.

सोलोमनले परमप्रभुको निम्ति बाइस हजार गाईवस्तु र एक लाख बिस हजार भेडा-बाख्रा मेलबलिको रूपमा चढाए । यसरी राजा र इस्राएलका सारा समुदायले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर समर्पण गरे ।

64 The same day the king hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of Jehovah, for there he offered the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brazen altar that was before Jehovah was too little to receive the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings.

त्यसै दिन राजाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको सामु चोकको बिचको भागलाई पनि अर्पण गरे, अनि तिनले त्यहाँ होमबलि, अन्नबलि र मेलबलिको बोसो चढाए, किनकि परमप्रभुको सामु राखिएको काँसाको वेदी यति सानो थियो कि त्यहाँ होमबलि, अन्नबलि र मेलबलिको बोसो चढाउन सकिँदैनथ्यो ।

65 So Solomon held the feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great assembly, from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of Egypt, before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.

यसैले सोलोमनले त्यस बेला एउटा चाड मनाए । त्यहाँ लेबो-हमातदेखि मिश्रको खोलासम्मका सारा इस्राएल, ठुलो समुदायले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरको सामु सात दिन र अर्को सात दिन गरी जम्मा चौध दिनसम्म चाड मनाए ।

66 On the eighth day he sent the people away. And they blessed the king, and went to their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that Jehovah had shown to David his servant, and to Israel his people.

आठौँ दिनमा तिनले मानिसहरूलाई बिदा दिए, र तिनीहरूले राजालाई धन्यको भने अनि परमप्रभुले आफ्ना दास दाऊद र आफ्नो जाति इस्राएलको निम्ति गर्नुभएका सबै असल कार्यको कारण हर्षित र आनन्दित हृदयसाथ तिनीहरू आ-आफ्ना घरतर्फ लागे ।
