1 Kings 8
1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel with all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD’s covenant out of David’s city, which is Zion.
| حِينَئِذٍ جَمَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ جَمِيعَ رُؤَسَاءِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَكُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ الأَسْبَاطِ وَالْعَشَائِرِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِنَقْلِ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ إِلَى الْهَيْكَلِ. | ١ |
2 All the men of Israel assembled themselves to King Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
| فَتَوَافَدَ جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ فِي عِيدِ الْمَظَالِّ الْوَاقِعِ فِي شَهْرِ أَيْثَانِيمَ (تِشْرِينَ الأَوَّلِ – أُكْتُوبَرَ). | ٢ |
3 All the elders of Israel came, and the priests picked up the ark.
| فَاحْتَشَدَ كُلُّ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحَمَلَ الْكَهَنَةُ التَّابُوتَ، | ٣ |
4 They brought up the LORD’s ark, the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent. The priests and the Levites brought these up.
| وَنَقَلَ الْكَهَنَةُ وَاللّاوِيُّونَ تَابُوتَ الرَّبِّ مَعَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَسَائِرِ الأَوَانِي الْمُقَدَّسَةِ الَّتِي فِي الْخَيْمَةِ. | ٤ |
5 King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who were assembled to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and cattle that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.
| وَكَانَ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ وَكُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الْمُلْتَفِّينَ حَوْلَهُ أَمَامَ التَّابُوتِ يَذْبَحُونَ مَا لَا يُحْصَى وَلا يُعَدُّ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَالْبَقَرِ. | ٥ |
6 The priests brought in the ark of the LORD’s covenant to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, even under the cherubim’s wings.
| وَأَدْخَلَ الْكَهَنَةُ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ فِي مِحْرَابِ الْهَيْكَلِ، فِي قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ، تَحْتَ جَنَاحَيِ الْكَرُوبَيْنِ | ٦ |
7 For the cherubim spread their wings out over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.
| اللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا بَاسِطَيْنِ أَجْنِحَتَهُمَا فَوْقَ مَقَرِّ التَّابُوتِ، مُظَلِّلَينِ التَّابُوتَ وَعِصِيَّهُ. | ٧ |
8 The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the holy place before the inner sanctuary, but they were not seen outside. They are there to this day.
| وَسَحَبُوا أَطْرَافَ الْعِصِيِّ، فَبَدَتْ رُؤُوسُهَا مِنْ قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ أَمَامَ الْمِحْرَابِ، وَلَمْ يَسْبِقْ أَنْ شُوهِدَتْ خَارِجَةً مِنْ حَلَقَاتِهَا، وَهِيَ مَا بَرِحَتْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٨ |
9 There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
| وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي التَّابُوتِ سِوَى لَوْحَيِ الْحَجَرِ اللَّذَيْنِ وَضَعَهُمَا مُوسَى فِي حُورِيبَ حِينَ عَاهَدَ الرَّبُّ أَبْنَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. | ٩ |
10 It came to pass, when the priests had come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the LORD’s house,
| وَمَا إِنْ خَرَجَ الْكَهَنَةُ مِنْ قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ حَتَّى مَلأَ السَّحَابُ هَيْكَلَ الرَّبِّ، | ١٠ |
11 so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the LORD’s glory filled the LORD’s house.
| فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعِ الْكَهَنَةُ الْقِيَامَ بِالْخِدْمَةِ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ السَّحَابِ، لأَنَّ مَجْدَ الرَّبِّ مَلأَ الْهَيْكَلَ. | ١١ |
12 Then Solomon said, “The LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ هَتَفَ سُلَيْمَانُ: «قَالَ الرَّبُّ إِنَّهُ يَسْكُنُ فِي الضَّبَابِ، | ١٢ |
13 I have surely built you a house of habitation, a place for you to dwell in forever.”
| وَلَكِنِّي قَدْ بَنَيْتُ لَكَ هَيْكَلاً رَائِعاً، مَقَرّاً لِسُكْنَاكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ». | ١٣ |
14 The king turned his face around and blessed all the assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel stood.
| وَفِيمَا كَانَتْ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَاقِفَةً هُنَاكَ، الْتَفَتَ الْمَلِكُ نَحْوَهُمْ وَبَارَكَهُمْ جَمِيعاً، | ١٤ |
15 He said, “Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David your father, and has with his hand fulfilled it, saying,
| قَائِلاً: «تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي حَقَّقَ الْيَوْمَ وَعْدَهُ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ لأَبِي دَاوُدَ قَائِلاً: | ١٥ |
16 ‘Since the day that I brought 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.’
| ’مُنْذُ أَنْ أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ لَمْ أَخْتَرْ مَدِينَةً مِنْ مُدُنِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيُبْنَى لِي فِيهَا هَيْكَلٌ، لَكِنِّي اخْتَرْتُ دَاوُدَ قَائِداً لِشَعْبِي.‘ | ١٦ |
17 “Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
| وَقَدْ نَوَى دَاوُدُ أَبِي أَنْ يُشَيِّدَ هَيْكَلاً لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٧ |
18 But the LORD said to David my father, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ أَبِي:’لَقَدْ أَحْسَنْتَ إِذْ نَوَيْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ أَنْ تَبْنِيَ لِي هَيْكَلاً، | ١٨ |
19 Nevertheless, you shall not build the house; but your son who shall come out of your body, he shall build the house for my name.’
| إِلّا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ لَنْ تَبْنِيَ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلَ، بَلِ ابْنُكَ الْخَارِجُ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ هُوَ يُشَيِّدُهُ لاسْمِي‘. | ١٩ |
20 The LORD has established his word that he spoke; for I have risen up in the place of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
| وَأَوْفَى الرَّبُّ بِمَا وَعَدَ بِهِ، فَخَلَفْتُ أَنَا دَاوُدَ أَبِي عَلَى عَرْشِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ، وَأَقَمْتُ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٢٠ |
21 There I have set a place for the ark, in which is the LORD’s covenant, which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
| وَهَيَّأْتُ فِيهِ مَكَاناً لِلتَّابُوتِ الَّذِي يَضُمُّ عَهْدَ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ مَعَ آبَائِنَا عِنْدَمَا أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ». | ٢١ |
22 Solomon stood before the LORD’s altar in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven;
| وَانْتَصَبَ سُلَيْمَانُ أَمَامَ مَذْبَحِ الرَّبِّ، فِي مُوَاجَهَةِ كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَبَسَطَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، | ٢٢ |
23 and he said, “LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like you, in heaven above, or on earth beneath; who keeps covenant and loving kindness with your servants who walk before you with all their heart;
| وَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لَيْسَ نَظِيرٌ لَكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ وَلا عَلَى الأَرْضِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ. أَنْتَ يَا مَنْ تُحَافِظُ عَلَى عَهْدِ الرَّحْمَةِ مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ السَّائِرِينَ أَمَامَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمِ. | ٢٣ |
24 who has kept with your servant David my father that which you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is today.
| الْيَوْمَ حَقَّقْتَ وَعْدَكَ لأَبِي دَاوُدَ | ٢٤ |
25 Now therefore, may LORD, the God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that which you have promised him, saying, ‘There shall not fail from you a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your children take heed to their way, to walk before me as you have walked before me.’
| فَالآنَ احْفَظْ لأَبِي دَاوُدَ مَا وَعَدْتَهُ بِهِ، إِنَّهُ إِذَا حَذَا أَوْلادُهُ حَذْوَهُ، وَسَارُوا فِي طَرِيقِكَ، فَسَيَجْلِسُ دَوْماً وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى عَرْشِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٥ |
26 “Now therefore, God of Israel, please let your word be verified, which you spoke to your servant David my father.
| وَالآنَ يَا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ حَقِّقْ وُعُودَكَ الَّتِي تَعَهَّدْتَ بِها لأَبِي دَاوُدَ. | ٢٦ |
27 But will God in very deed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house that I have built!
| وَلَكِنْ هَلْ يَسْكُنُ اللهُ حَقّاً عَلَى الأَرْضِ؟ إِنْ كَانَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ، بَلِ السَّمَاوَاتُ الْعُلَى لَا تَسَعُكَ فَكَيْفَ يَتَّسِعُ لَكَ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلُ الَّذِي بَنَيْتُ؟ | ٢٧ |
28 Yet have respect for the prayer of your servant and for his supplication, LORD my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which your servant prays before you today;
| فَأَصْغِ لابْتِهَالِ عَبْدِكَ وَإِلَى تَضَرُّعِهِ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، وَاسْتَمِعْ إِلَى صَوْتِ الدُّعَاءِ وَالصَّلاةِ الَّتِي يَرْفَعُهَا عَبْدُكَ أَمَامَكَ الْيَوْمَ، | ٢٨ |
29 that your eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place of which you have said, ‘My name shall be there;’ to listen to the prayer which your servant prays toward this place.
| حَتَّى لَا تَغْفَلَ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ لَيْلاً وَنَهَاراً، هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي قُلْتَ إِنَّ اسْمَكَ يَكُونُ فِيهِ، فَتَسْمَعُ الصَّلاةَ الَّتِي يَتَضَرَّعُ بِها عَبْدُكَ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ. | ٢٩ |
30 Listen to the supplication of your servant, and of your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Yes, hear in heaven, your dwelling place; and when you hear, forgive.
| فَاسْتَمِعْ إِلَى ابْتِهَالِ عَبْدِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِينَ يُصَلُّونَ فِي هَذَا الْمَكَانِ. اسْتَمِعْ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، وَمَتَى سَمِعْتَ فَاغْفِرْ. | ٣٠ |
31 “If a man sins against his neighbor, and an oath is laid on him to cause him to swear, and he comes and swears before your altar in this house,
| وَإِنْ أَخْطَأَ أَحَدٌ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ، وَأَوْجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْيَمِينَ لِيَحْلِفَهُ، وَحَضَرَ لِيَحْلِفَ أَمَامَ مَذْبَحِكَ فِي هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ، | ٣١ |
32 then hear in heaven, and act, and judge your servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way on his own head, and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
| فَاسْتَمِعْ أَنْتَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَاعْمَلْ، وَاقْضِ بَيْنَ عَبِيدِكَ، إِذْ تَدِينُ الْمُذْنِبَ وَتَجْعَلُ شَرَّهُ يَقَعُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَتُنْصِفُ الْبَارَّ وَتُعْلِنُ بَرَاءَتَهُ. | ٣٢ |
33 “When your people Israel are struck down before the enemy because they have sinned against you, if they turn again to you and confess your name, and pray and make supplication to you in this house,
| إِذَا انْهَزَمَ شَعْبُكَ أَمَامَ عَدُوِّهِمْ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ خَطِيئَتِهِمْ، ثُمَّ تَابُوا مُعْتَرِفِينَ بِاسْمِكَ، وَصَلُّوا مُتَضَرِّعِينَ إِلَيْكَ فِي هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ، | ٣٣ |
34 then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave to their fathers.
| فَاسْتَجِبْ أَنْتَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَاصْفَحْ عَنْ خَطِيئَةِ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَرْجِعْهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتَهَا لِآبَائِهِمْ. | ٣٤ |
35 “When the sky is shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against you, if they pray toward this place and confess your name, and turn from their sin when you afflict them,
| إِذَا أُغْلِقَتْ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ وَانْحَبَسَ الْمَطَرُ لأَنَّ الشَّعْبَ أَخْطَأَ إِلَيْكَ، ثُمَّ صَلُّوا فِي هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ مُعْتَرِفِينَ بِاسْمِكَ، وَتَابُوا عَنْ خَطِيئَتِهِمْ لأَنَّكَ أَنْزَلْتَ بِهِمِ الْبَلاءَ، | ٣٥ |
36 then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk; and send rain on your land which you have given to your people for an inheritance.
| فَاسْتَجِبْ أَنْتَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَاصْفَحْ عَنْ خَطِيئَةِ عَبِيدِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَعَلِّمْهُمْ سَبِيلَ الْعَيْشِ بِاسْتِقَامَةٍ، وَأَمْطِرْ غَيْثاً عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتَهَا مِيرَاثاً لِشَعْبِكَ. | ٣٦ |
37 “If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight, mildew, locust or caterpillar; if their enemy besieges them in the land of their cities, whatever plague, whatever sickness there is,
| وَإِنْ أَصَابَتِ الأَرْضَ مَجَاعَةٌ، أَوْ تَفَشَّى فِيهَا وَبَأٌ، أَوِ اعْتَرَتْهَا آفَاتٌ زِرَاعِيَّةٌ، أَوْ جَفَافٌ، أَوْ غَزَاهَا الْجَرَادُ وَالْجُنْدُبُ، أَوْ إِذَا حَاصَرَ الشَّعْبَ عَدُوٌّ فِي أَيَّةِ مَدِينَةٍ مِنْ مُدُنِهِ، أَوْ حَلَّتْ بِهِ كَارِثَةٌ أَوْ مَرَضٌ، | ٣٧ |
38 whatever prayer and supplication is made by any man, or by all your people Israel, who shall each know the plague of his own heart, and spread out his hands toward this house,
| فَحِينَ يُصَلِّي أَوْ يَتَضَرَّعُ أَيُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، بَعْدَ أَنْ يُدْرِكَ مَا ارْتَكَبَهُ مِنْ مَعْصِيَةٍ، وَيَبْسُطُ يَدَيْهِ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ، | ٣٨ |
39 then hear in heaven, your dwelling place, and forgive, and act, and give to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know (for you, even you only, know the hearts of all the children of men);
| فَاسْتَجِبْ أَنْتَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، وَاصْفَحْ وَاعْمَلْ، وَاجْزِ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ بِمُقْتَضَى طُرُقِهِ، لأَنَّكَ تَعْرِفُ قَلْبَهُ، فَأَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ الْمُطَّلِعُ عَلَى خَفَايَا قُلُوبِ النَّاسِ، | ٣٩ |
40 that they may fear you all the days that they live in the land which you gave to our fathers.
| لِكَيْ يَتَّقُوكَ كُلَّ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي يَحْيَوْنَ فِيهَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتَهَا لِآبَائِنَا. | ٤٠ |
41 “Moreover, concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, when he comes out of a far country for your name’s sake
| أَمَّا الْغَرِيبُ الَّذِي لَا يَنْتَمِي إِلَى شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَالَّذِي يُقْبِلُ مِنْ أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِكَ، | ٤١ |
42 (for they shall hear of your great name and of your mighty hand and of your outstretched arm), when he comes and prays toward this house,
| لأَنَّ الْغُرَبَاءَ يَسْمَعُونَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ، وَبِمَا أَجْرَتْهُ يَدُكَ الْقَوِيَّةُ وَذِرَاعُكَ الْمُقْتَدِرَةُ، فَيَحْضُرُونَ وَيُصَلُّونَ فِي هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ، | ٤٢ |
43 hear in heaven, your dwelling place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to you for; that all the peoples of the earth may know your name, to fear you, as do your people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by your name.
| فَاسْتَجِبْ أَنْتَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، وَافْعَلْ كُلَّ مَا يُنَاشِدُكَ بِهِ الْغَرِيبُ، فَيُدْعَى بِاسْمِكَ بَيْنَ كُلِّ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ، فَيَخَافُوكَ كَمَا يَخَافُكَ شَعْبُكَ إِسْرَائِيلُ، وَيُدْرِكُوا أَنَّ اسْمَكَ قَدْ دُعِيَ عَلَى هَذَا الْهَيْكَلِ الَّذِي بَنَيْتُهُ. | ٤٣ |
44 “If your people go out to battle against their enemy, by whatever way you shall send them, and they pray to the LORD toward the city which you have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for your name,
| وَإذَا خَرَجَ شَعْبُكَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ عَدُوٍّ، فِي أَيِّ مَكَانٍ تُرْسِلُهُمْ إِلَيْهِ، وَصَلُّوا إِلَى الرَّبِّ مُتَوَجِّهِينَ نَحْوَ الْمَدِينَةِ الَّتِي اخْتَرْتَهَا وَالْهَيْكَلِ الَّذِي بَنَيْتُهُ لاسْمِكَ، | ٤٤ |
45 then hear in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
| فَاسْتَجِبْ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ صَلاتَهُمْ وَتَضَرُّعَهُمْ، وَانْصُرْ قَضِيَّتَهُمْ. | ٤٥ |
46 If they sin against you (for there is no man who does not sin), and you are angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to the land of the enemy, far off or near;
| وَإذَا أَخْطَأُوا إِلَيْكَ، إِذْ لَيْسَ إِنْسَانٌ لَا يَأْثَمُ، وَغَضِبْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَسْلَمْتَهُمْ لِلْعَدُوِّ فَسَبَاهُمْ آسِرُوهُمْ إِلَى دِيَارِ الْعَدُوِّ، بَعِيدَةً كَانَتْ أَوْ قَرِيبَةً. | ٤٦ |
47 yet if they repent in the land where they are carried captive, and turn again, and make supplication to you in the land of those who carried them captive, saying, ‘We have sinned and have done perversely; we have dealt wickedly,’
| فَإِنْ تَابُوا فِي أَرْضِ سَبْيِهِمْ وَرَجَعُوا مُتَضَرِّعِينَ إِلَيْكَ قَائِلِينَ: قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا وَانْحَرَفْنَا وَأَذْنَبْنَا، | ٤٧ |
48 if they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies who carried them captive, and pray to you toward their land which you gave to their fathers, the city which you have chosen and the house which I have built for your name,
| وَتَابُوا حَقّاً مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَنُفُوسِهِمْ وَهُمْ أَسْرَى فِي دِيَارِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ، مُتَوَجِّهِينَ نَحْوَ أَرْضِهِمِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتَهَا لِآبَائِهِمْ، نَحْوَ الْمَدِينَةِ الَّتِي اخْتَرْتَهَا وَالْهَيْكَلِ الَّذِي شَيَّدْتُهُ لاِسْمِكَ، | ٤٨ |
49 then hear their prayer and their supplication in heaven, your dwelling place, and maintain their cause;
| فَاسْتَجِبْ صَلاتَهُمْ وَتَضَرُّعَهُمْ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، وَانْصُرْ قَضِيَّتَهُمْ، | ٤٩ |
50 and forgive your people who have sinned against you, and all their transgressions in which they have transgressed against you; and give them compassion before those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them
| وَاصْفَحْ عَنْ خَطَايَا شَعْبِكَ وَعَنْ جَمِيعِ ذُنُوبِهِمِ الَّتِي ارْتَكَبُوهَا فِي حَقِّكَ، وَاجْعَلْ آسِرِيهِمْ يُبْدُونَ نَحْوَهُمْ رَحْمَةً، | ٥٠ |
51 (for they are your people and your inheritance, which you brought out of Egypt, from the middle of the iron furnace);
| لأَنَّهُمْ شَعْبُكَ وَمِيرَاثُكَ الَّذِينَ أَخْرَجْتَهُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ، مِنْ وَسَطِ أَتُونِ صَهْرِ الْحَدِيدِ. | ٥١ |
52 that your eyes may be open to the supplication of your servant and to the supplication of your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they cry to you.
| لِتَكُنْ عَيْنَاكَ مَفْتُوحَتَيْنِ مُلْتَفِتَتَيْنِ نَحْوَ تَضَرُّعِ عَبْدِكَ وَابْتِهَالِ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتُصْغِيَ إِلَيْهِمْ كُلَّمَا اسْتَغَاثُوا بِكَ، | ٥٢ |
53 For you separated them from among all the peoples of the earth to be your inheritance, as you spoke by Moses your servant, when you brought our fathers out of Egypt, Lord GOD.”
| لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ أَفْرَزْتَهُمْ لَكَ مِيرَاثاً بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ، كَمَا تَكَلَّمْتَ عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبْدِكَ مُوسَى عِنْدَمَا أَخْرَجْتَ آبَاءَنَا مِنْ مِصْرَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ». | ٥٣ |
54 It was so, that when Solomon had finished praying all this prayer and supplication to the LORD, he arose from before the LORD’s altar, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread out toward heaven.
| وَعِنْدَمَا انْتَهَى سُلَيْمَانُ مِنَ الصَّلاةِ إِلَى الرَّبِّ وَالتَّضَرُّعِ إِلَيْهِ، نَهَضَ مِنْ أَمَامِ الْمَذْبَحِ حَيْثُ كَانَ جَاثِياً عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَبَاسِطاً يَدَيْهِ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ. | ٥٤ |
55 He stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
| وَوَقَفَ وَبَارَكَ الشَّعْبَ كُلَّهُ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ قَائِلاً: | ٥٥ |
56 “Blessed be the LORD, 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.
| «تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي مَنَحَ رَاحَةً لِشَعْبِهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِمُقْتَضَى وَعْدِهِ، وَلَمْ يُخْلِفْ كَلِمَةً وَاحِدَةً مِنْ وُعُودِهِ الصَّالِحَةِ الَّتِي نَطَقَ بِها عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبْدِهِ مُوسَى. | ٥٦ |
57 May the LORD our God be with us as he was with our fathers. Let him not leave us or forsake us,
| لِيَكُنِ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا مَعَنَا كَمَا كَانَ مَعَ آبَائِنَا، فَلا يَتْرُكَنَا وَلا يَنْبِذَنَا، | ٥٧ |
58 that he may incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, which he commanded our fathers.
| بَلْ لِيَجْتَذِبْ قُلُوبَنَا إِلَيْهِ لِنَسْلُكَ فِي سُبُلِهِ وَنُطِيعَ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ بِها آبَاءَنَا، | ٥٨ |
59 Let these my words, with which I have made supplication before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, that he may maintain the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as every day requires;
| وَلْتَكُنْ كَلِمَاتِي الَّتِي تَضَرَّعْتُ بِها مَاثِلَةً دَائِماً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ لَيْلَ نَهَارَ لِيُسْعِفَ عَبْدَهُ فِي قَضَاءِ شُؤُونِهِ، وَيُعِينَ شَعْبَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي قَضَاءِ أُمُورِ حَيَاتِهِمْ يَوْماً بَعْدَ يَوْمٍ، | ٥٩ |
60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD himself is God. There is no one else.
| فَتَعْلَمَ كُلُّ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ اللهُ وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ سِوَاهُ. | ٦٠ |
61 “Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as it is today.”
| فَلْيَكُنْ قَلْبُكُمْ مُفْعَماً بِالْوَلاءِ الصَّادِقِ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، إِذْ تَسْلُكُونَ بِمُوْجِبِ فَرَائِضِهِ وَتُطِيعُونَ وَصَايَاهُ كَمَا فَعَلْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ». | ٦١ |
62 The king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.
| ثُمَّ ذَبَحَ الْمَلِكُ وَسَائِرُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ ذَبَائِحَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، | ٦٢ |
63 Solomon offered for the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to the LORD, twenty two thousand head of cattle and one hundred twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the LORD’s house.
| وَقَرَّبَ سُلَيْمَانُ مِنْ ذَبَائِحِ السَّلامِ لِلرَّبِّ اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً مِنَ الْبَقَرِ، وَمِئَةَ أَلْفٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً مِنَ الْغَنَمِ. وَهَكَذَا دَشَّنَ الْمَلِكُ وَجَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ هَيْكَلَ الرَّبِّ. | ٦٣ |
64 The same day the king made the middle of the court holy that was before the LORD’s house; for there he offered the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too little to receive the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings.
| وَقَدَّسَ الْمَلِكُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ الْفِنَاءَ الَّذِي يَقَعُ أَمَامَ الْهَيْكَلِ، بِأَنْ قَرَّبَ هُنَاكَ الْمُحْرَقَاتِ وَالتَّقْدِمَاتِ وَشَحْمَ ذَبَائِحِ السَّلامِ، لأَنَّ مَذْبَحَ النُّحَاسِ الْقَائِمَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ كَانَ أَصْغَرَ مِنْ أَنْ يَسَعَ الْمُحْرَقَاتِ وَالتَّقْدِمَاتِ وَشَحْمَ ذَبَائِحِ السَّلامِ. | ٦٤ |
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 the LORD our God, seven days and seven more days, even fourteen days.
| وَاحْتَفَلَ سُلَيْمَانُ بِالْعِيدِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ مَعَ سَائِرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَجُمْهُورٍ كَبِيرٍ تَوَافَدَ مِنْ مَدْخَلِ حَمَاةَ إِلَى وَادِي مِصْرَ، وَاسْتَمَرَّ الاحْتِفَالُ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ أرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْماً | ٦٥ |
66 On the eighth day he sent the people away; and they blessed the king, and went to their tents joyful and glad in their hearts for all the goodness that the LORD had shown to David his servant, and to Israel his people.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الخَامِسِ عَشَرَ بَعْدَ الْعِيدِ، صَرَفَ سُلَيْمَانُ الشَّعْبَ، فَبَارَكُوهُ وَتَوَجَّهُوا إِلَى مَنَازِلِهِمْ بِقُلُوبٍ يَغْمُرُهَا الْفَرَحُ وَالْغِبْطَةُ مِنْ أَجْلِ كُلِّ الْخَيْرَاتِ الَّتِي أَبْدَاهَا الرَّبُّ نَحْوَ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِهِ، وَنَحْوَ شَعْبِهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦٦ |
