< 2 Chronicles 6 >

1 Then Solomon declared: “The LORD has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud;
A LAILA, olelo aku la o Solomona, I mai la o Iehova, e no ho ia iloko o ka pouli nui.
2 and I have built You an exalted house, a place for You to dwell forever.”
Aka, ua kukulu au i hale noho nou, i wahi nou e noho mau loa ai.
3 And as the whole assembly of Israel stood there, the king turned around and blessed them all
Alaila, huli ae la ko ke alii mau maka, a hoomaikai aku la ia i ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela; a ku ae la iluna ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela.
4 and said: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His own hand what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, saying,
Olelo aku la ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i olelo mai me kona waha ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, a hooko mai hoi me kona mau lima, i ka i ana mai,
5 ‘Since the day I brought My people out of the land of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house so that My Name would be there, nor have I chosen anyone to be ruler over My people Israel.
Mai ka wa mai a'u i lawe mai ai i ko'u poe kanaka mai ka aina mai o Aigupita, aole au i wae aku i kulanakauhale noloko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i wahi e kukulu ai i hale e waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; aole hoi au i wae aku i ke kanaka e noho alii maluna o ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
6 But now I have chosen Jerusalem for My Name to be there, and I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’
Aka, ua wae aku au ia Ierusalema i waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; a ua wae aku au ia Davida e noho maluna o ko'u poe kanaka, o ka Iseraela.
7 Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
Aia no iloko o ka naau o Davida, ko'u makua e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
8 But the LORD said to my father David, ‘Since it was in your heart to build a house for My Name, you have done well to have this in your heart.
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, aia no iloko o kou naau e kukulu i hale no ko'u inoa, a ua pono ia manao iloko o kou naau.
9 Nevertheless, you are not the one to build it; but your son, your own offspring, will build the house for My Name.’
Aka hoi, aole oe e kukulu i ka hale, o kau keiki ka mea e puka mai ana mai loko mai o kou puhaka, oia ka mea nana e kukulu ka hale no ko'u inoa.
10 Now the LORD has fulfilled the word that He spoke. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
Ua hooko mai o Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai; no ka mea, ua ku ae au mahope o Davida ko'u makuakane, a ke noho nei au maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela e like me ka olelo a Iehova, a ua kukulu au i hale no ka inoa o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
11 And there I have provided a place for the ark, which contains the covenant of the LORD that He made with the children of Israel.”
A ua hookomo au ilaila i ka pahu, aia iloko ka berita o Iehova ana i hana'i me ka poe mamo a Iseraela.
12 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in front of the whole assembly of Israel and spread out his hands.
Ku ae la iluna o Solomona imua o ke kuahu o Iehova, imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima.
13 Now Solomon had made a bronze platform five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high, and had placed it in the middle of the courtyard. He stood on it, knelt down before the whole assembly of Israel, spread out his hands toward heaven,
No ka mea, ua hana o Solomona i awai keleawe, elima kubita ka loa, elima ka laula, a ekolu ke kiekie, a ua waiho oia ia mea mawae na konu o ka pahale; a ku oia ma luna o ia mea, kukuli ihe la ma kona kuli imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima i ka lani,
14 and said: “O LORD, God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven or on earth, keeping Your covenant of loving devotion with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.
Olelo aku la ia, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aohe Akua e like me oe ma ka lani, aole hoi ma ka honua, e malama ana i ka berita a me ke aloha no kau poe kauwa, no ka poe e hele ana imua ou me ko lakou naau a pau.
15 You have kept Your promise to Your servant, my father David. What You spoke with Your mouth You have fulfilled with Your hand this day.
Ua malama mai oe i ka mea au i olelo mai ai i kau kauwa ia Davida i ko'u makua. Ua olelo mai oe me kou waha, a ua hooko mai me kou lima e like me ia i keia la.
16 Therefore now, O LORD, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, what You promised when You said: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before Me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants guard their way to walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’
Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooko mai no kau kauwa no Davida, no ko'u makuakane i ka mea au i olelo mai ai ia ia, i mai ana, Aole oe e nele i ke kanaka imua o'u e noho maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela, ke malama kau poe mamo i ko lakou aoao e hele ma ko'u kanawai e like me kou he le ana imua o'u.
17 And now, O LORD, God of Israel, please confirm what You promised to Your servant David.
Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooiaioia ka olelo au i olelo ai i kau kauwa ia Davida.
18 But will God indeed dwell with man upon the earth? Even heaven, the highest heaven, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.
Aka, he mea oiaio anei, e noho ana ke Akua me kanaka ma ka honua? Aia hoi, he uuku ia oe ka lani, a me ka lani o na lani! Pehea hoi keia hale a'u i hana ai!
19 Yet regard the prayer and plea of Your servant, O LORD my God, so that You may hear the cry and the prayer that Your servant is praying before You.
E maliu mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i ka mea ana i noi aku ai, e Iehova, e ko'u Akua, e hoolohe i ke kahea ana'ku a me ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku nei imua ou:
20 May Your eyes be open toward this temple day and night, toward the place where You said You would put Your Name, so that You may hear the prayer that Your servant prays toward this place.
I kaakaa kou mau maka maluna o keia hale i ke ao, a me ka po, maluna o kahi au i olelo ai e waiho mai i kou inoa malaila; e hoolohe i ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku ai ma keia wahi.
21 Hear the plea of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place. May You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place. May You hear and forgive.
E hoolohe mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, ka mea a lakou i noi aku ai ma keia wahi. E maliu mai oe, mai kou wahi e noho ai, mai ka lani mai, e hoolohe mai a e kala mai hoi.
22 When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he comes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,
Ina e hana hewa ke kanaka i kona hoalauna, a kauia maluna ona ka olelo hoohiki i mea nona e hoohiki ai, a komo ka olelo hoohiki imua o kou kuahu iloko o keia hale;
23 then may You hear from heaven and act. May You judge Your servants, condemning the wicked man by bringing down on his own head what he has done, and justifying the righteous man by rewarding him according to his righteousness.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e hooponopono, a e hookolokolo i kau poe kauwa, e hoouku i ka mea hewa, e hoopai no i kona aoao maluna o kona poo iho; a e apono mai i ka mea pono, e haawi ia ia e like me kona pono iho.
24 When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your name, praying and pleading before You in this temple,
Ina e hee kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o ko lakou poe enemi, no ka lakou hana hewa ana ia oe; a huli lakou a hooia i kou inoa, a e pule aku a e noi aku imua ou iloko o keia hale;
25 then may You hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your people Israel. May You restore them to the land You gave to them and their fathers.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai. a e kala mai i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a e hoihoi ia lakou ma ka aina au i haawi mai ai ia lakou, a me ko lakou poe kupuna.
26 When the skies are shut and there is no rain because Your people have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your name, and they turn from their sins because You have afflicted them,
I ka wa e paa ai ka lani, aohe ua, no ka mea, ua hana hewa lakou ia oe; a pule lakou ma keia hale, a e hooia aku i kou inoa, a e huli ae mai ko lakou hewa mai, i ka wa au e hookaumaha ai ia lakou;
27 then may You hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your servants, Your people Israel, so that You may teach them the good way in which they should walk. May You send rain on the land that You gave Your people as an inheritance.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela i ka wa e ao ai oe ia lakou i ka aoao maikai kahi a lakou e hele ai; a e haawi mai oe i ka ua maluna o ka aina au i haawi ai i kou poe kanaka i mea e ili mau ana no lakou.
28 When famine or plague comes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemies besiege them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may come,
Ina he kau wi ma ka aina, he ahulau, he huaai malili paha, a me ka punahelu, a me na uhini, a me na peelua; ina o puni lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, ma ka aina ma ko lakou mau ipuka; o ka eha a me ke kaumaha a pau;
29 then may whatever prayer or petition Your people Israel make—each knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—
O ka pule a pau, a me ke noi ana'ku a pau a kela kanaka keia kanaka a kou poe kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela e pule aku ai, aia ike kela mea keia mea i kona eha a me kona kaumaha, a e hohola ia i ko na mau lima ma keia hale;
30 be heard by You from heaven, Your dwelling place. And may You forgive and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his heart—for You alone know the hearts of men—
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, o kou wahi e noho ai, a e kala mai, a e haawi i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona aoao iho, i kou ike ana i kona naau; (no ka mea, o oe wale no ka i ike i ka naau o na keiki a kanaka; )
31 so that they may fear You and walk in Your ways all the days they live in the land that You gave to our fathers.
I makau lakou ia oe, i hele ma kou aoao i na la a pau loa o ko lakou ola ana ma ka aina au i haawi mai ai i ko makou poe kupuna.
32 And as for the foreigner who is not of Your people Israel but has come from a distant land because of Your great name and Your mighty hand and outstretched arm—when he comes and prays toward this temple,
A o ka malihini, ka mea aole no kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, ka mea i hele mai, mai ka ai na loihi e mai, no kou inoa nui, a no kou lima ikaika, a me kou lima kakauha; a hele mai lakou e pule ma keia hale;
33 then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Name.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, mai kou wahi e noho ai, a e hana e like me na mea a ka malihini e kahea aku ai ia oe; i ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua i kou inoa, a i makau lakou ia oe e like me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a i ike noi lakou ua kapaia kou inoa maluna o keia hale a'u i hana ai.
34 When Your people go to war against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to You in the direction of the city You have chosen and the house I have built for Your Name,
I ka wa i hele aku ai kou poe kanaka e kaua aku i ko lakou poe enemi ma ka aoao au e hoouna aku ai lakou, a e pule lakou ma ke alo ma keia kulanakauhale au i wae mai ai, a ma ka hale a'u i hana ai no kou inoa;
35 then may You hear from heaven their prayer and their plea, and may You uphold their cause.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai i ka lakou pule, a me ko lakou noi ana, a e hoopono mai no lakou.
36 When they sin against You—for there is no one who does not sin—and You become angry with them and deliver them to an enemy who takes them as captives to a land far or near,
Ina e hana hewa lakou ia oe, (no kamea, aohe kanaka i hana he wa ole, ) a huhu mai oe ia lakou, a haawi oe ia lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, a alakai pio ua poe la ia lakou i ka aina loihi, a i ka aina kokoke paha;
37 and when they come to their senses in the land to which they were taken, and they repent and plead with You in the land of their captors, saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,’
A e noonoo iho lakou ma ka aina a lakou e noho pio ai, a e huli lakou, a e pule aku ia oe ma ka ai na o ko lakou noho pio ana, me ka i ana'ku, Ua hewa makou, ua lawehala, a ua hana ino aku;
38 and when they return to You with all their heart and soul in the land of the enemies who took them captive, and when they pray in the direction of the land that You gave to their fathers, the city You have chosen, and the house I have built for Your Name,
A huli lakou ia oe me ko lakou naau a pau, a me ko lakou uhane a pau, ma ka aina o ko lakou noho pio ana kahi i lawe pio ia'i lakou, a pule aku lakou me ka haliu mai o ke alo ma ko lakou aina ka mea au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou poe kupuna, a ma ke kulanakauhale au i wae mai ai, a me ka hale a'u i kukulu ai no kou inoa;
39 then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, their prayer and petition, and may You uphold their cause. May You forgive Your people who sinned against You.
Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, mai kou wahi e noho ai, i ka lakou pule, a me ko lakou noi ana, a e hoopono mai no lakou, a e kala mai i kou poe kanaka i ka mea a lakou i hana hewa aku ai ia oe.
40 Now, my God, may Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place.
Ano, e ko'u Akua, e weheia kou mau maka, e haliu mai hoi kou mau pepeiao i ka pule ma keia wahi.
41 Now therefore, arise, O LORD God, and enter Your resting place, You and the ark of Your might. May Your priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and may Your godly ones rejoice in goodness.
E ku oe, ano, e Iehova ke Akua, iloko o kou wahi e maha ai, o oe a me ka pahu o kou mana; o kou poe kahuna, e Iehova ke Akua, e hoaahuia lakou i ke ola, a o kou poe haipule, e olioli lakou i ka maikai.
42 O LORD God, do not reject Your anointed one. Remember Your loving devotion to Your servant David.”
E Iehova ke Akua, mai pale ae i ka maka o kau mea i poni ai; e hoomanao oe i ke aloha no Davida, no kau kauwa.
