< 2 Chronicles 7 >
1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices. And the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
Cumque complesset Salomon fundens preces, ignis descendit de caelo, et devoravit holocausta et victimas: et maiestas Domini implevit domum.
2 And the priests could not enter into the house of Jehovah, because the glory of Jehovah filled Jehovah's house.
Nec poterant sacerdotes ingredi templum Domini, eo quod implesset maiestas Domini templum Domini.
3 And all the sons of Israel looked on when the fire came down, and the glory of Jehovah was upon the house. And they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshiped, and gave thanks to Jehovah, saying, For he is good. For his loving kindness is forever.
Sed et omnes filii Israel videbant descendentem ignem, et gloriam Domini super domum: et corruentes proni in terram super pavimentum stratum lapide, adoraverunt, et laudaverunt Dominum: Quoniam bonus, quoniam in saeculum misericordia eius.
4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifice before Jehovah.
Rex autem, et omnis populus immolabant victimas coram Domino.
5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
Mactavit igitur rex Salomon hostias, boum vigintiduo millia, arietum centum viginti millia: et dedicavit domum Dei rex, et universus populus.
6 And the priests stood according to their offices, also the Levites with instruments of music of Jehovah, which David the king had made to give thanks to Jehovah (for his loving kindness is forever) when David praised by their ministry, and the priests sounded trumpets before them. And all Israel stood.
Sacerdotes autem stabant in officiis suis: et Levitae in organis carminum Domini, quae fecit David rex ad laudandum Dominum: Quoniam in aeternum misericordia eius, hymnos David canentes per manus suas: porro Sacerdotes canebant tubis ante eos, cunctusque Israel stabat.
7 Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of Jehovah. For there he offered the burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brazen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat.
Sanctificavit quoque Salomon medium atrii ante templum Domini: obtulerat enim ibi holocausta et adipes pacificorum: quia altare aeneum, quod fecerat, non poterat sustinere holocausta et sacrificia et adipes.
8 So Solomon held the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly, from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of Egypt.
Fecit ergo Salomon sollemnitatem in tempore illo septem diebus, et omnis Israel cum eo, ecclesia magna valde, ab introitu Emath usque ad Torrentem Aegypti.
9 And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly. For they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
Fecitque die octavo collectam, eo quod dedicasset altare septem diebus, et sollemnitatem celebrasset diebus septem.
10 And on the twenty-third day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that Jehovah had shown to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.
Igitur in die vigesimo tertio mensis septimi dimisit populos ad tabernacula sua, laetantes atque gaudentes super bono, quod fecerat Dominus Davidi, et Salomoni, et Israeli populo suo.
11 Thus Solomon finished the house of Jehovah, and the king's house. And all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of Jehovah, and in his own house, he caused to prosper.
Complevitque Salomon domum Domini, et domum regis, et omnia quae disposuerat in corde suo, ut faceret in domo Domini, et in domo sua, et prosperatus est.
12 And Jehovah appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
Apparuit autem ei Dominus nocte, et ait: Audivi orationem tuam, et elegi locum istum mihi in domum sacrificii.
13 If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people,
Si clausero caelum, et pluvia non fluxerit, et mandavero et praecepero locustae, ut devoret terram, et misero pestilentiam in populum meum:
14 if my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
conversus autem populus meus, super quos invocatum est nomen meum, deprecatus me fuerit, et exquisierit faciem meam, et egerit poenitentiam a viis suis pessimis: et ego exaudiam de caelo, et propitius ero peccatis eorum, et sanabo terram eorum.
15 Now my eyes shall be open, and my ears attend to the prayer that is made in this place.
Oculi quoque mei erunt aperti, et aures meae erectae ad orationem eius, qui in loco isto oraverit.
16 For now I have chosen and hallowed this house, that my name may be there forever, and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.
Elegi enim, et sanctificavi locum istum, ut sit nomen meum ibi in sempiternum, et permaneant oculi mei, et cor meum ibi cunctis diebus.
17 And as for thee, if thou will walk before me as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and will keep my statutes and mine ordinances,
Tu quoque si ambulaveris coram me, sicut ambulaverit David pater tuus, et feceris iuxta omnia, quae praecepi tibi, et iustitias meas iudiciaque servaveris:
18 then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.
suscitabo thronum regni tui, sicut pollicitus sum David patri tuo, dicens: Non auferetur de stirpe tua vir, qui non sit princeps in Israel.
19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them,
Si autem aversi fueritis, et dereliqueritis iustitias meas, et praecepta mea, quae proposui vobis, et abeuntes servieritis diis alienis, et adoraveritis eos,
20 then I will pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them. And this house, which I have hallowed for my name, I will cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
evellam vos de terra mea, quam dedi vobis: et domum hanc, quam sanctificavi nomini meo, proiiciam a facie mea, et tradam eam in parabolam, et in exemplum cunctis populis.
21 And this house, which is so high, everyone who passes by it shall be astonished, and shall say, Why has Jehovah done thus to this land, and to this house?
Et domus ista erit in proverbium universis transeuntibus, et dicent stupentes: Quare fecit Dominus sic terrae huic, et domui huic?
22 And they shall answer, Because they forsook Jehovah, the God of their fathers, who brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshiped them, and served them; therefore he has brought all this evil upon them.
Respondebuntque: Quia dereliquerunt Dominum Deum patrum suorum, qui eduxit eos de Terra Aegypti, et apprehenderunt deos alienos, et adoraverunt eos, et coluerunt: idcirco venerunt super eos universa haec mala.
