< 2 Chronicles 6 >

1 Then Solomon said, O Lord, to the sun you have given the heaven for a living-place, but your living-place was not seen by men,
Dia hoy Solomona: Jehovah efa nilaza fa hitoetra ao amin’ ny aizim-pito Izy.
2 So I have made for you a living-place, a house in which you may be for ever present.
Nefa izaho efa nanao trano hitoeranao tokoa, dia fitoerana hitoeranao mandrakizay.
3 Then, turning his face about, the king gave a blessing to all the men of Israel; and they were all on their feet together.
Ary ny mpanjaka nitodika ka nitso-drano ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra (nitsangana avokoa ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra),
4 And he said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who himself gave his word to my father David, and with his strong hand has made his word come true, saying,
ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, fa ny vavany efa niteny tamin’ i Davida raiko, ary ny tànany no nahatanteraka izany taminy, dia ilay hoe:
5 From the day when I took my people out of the land of Egypt, no town in all the tribes of Israel has been marked out by me for the building of a house for the resting-place of my name; and I took no man to be a ruler over my people Israel;
Hatramin’ ny andro nitondrako ny oloko nivoaka avy tany Egypta dia tsy mbola nisy tanàna nofidiko tamin’ ny firenen’ isiraely rehetra hanaovana trano mba hitoeran’ ny anarako; ary tsy nisy olona nofidiko ho mpanapaka ny Isiraely oloko;
6 But now I have made selection of Jerusalem, that my name might be there, and of David, to be over my people Israel.
fa nifidy an’ i Jerosalema Aho hitoeran’ ny anarako, ary nifidy an’ i Davida Aho hanapaka ny Isiraely oloko.
7 Now it was in the heart of my father David to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Ary efa mby tao am-pon’ i Davida raiko ny hanao trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
8 But the Lord said to David my father, You did well to have in your heart the desire to make a house for my name:
Nefa hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Davida raiko: Satria tao am-ponao ny fikasana hanao trano ho an’ ny anarako, dia tsara izany fikasanao izany.
9 But you yourself will not be the builder of the house; but your son, the offspring of your body, he it is who will put up a house for my name.
Kanefa tsy ianao no hanao ny trano, fa ny zanakao izay haterakao, izy no hanao ny trano ho an’ ny anarako.
10 And the Lord has kept his word; for I have taken my father David's place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel, as the Lord gave his word; and I have made the house for the name of the Lord the God of Israel.
Ary Jehovah efa nahatanteraka ny teniny izay nolazainy, koa nitsangana handimby an’ i Davida raiko aho ary mipetraka amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely tahaka ny efa nolazain’ i Jehovah, sady efa nanao ny trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, aho.
11 And there I have put the ark, in which is the agreement of the Lord, which he made with the people of Israel.
Ary napetrako tao ny fiara izay itoeran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, ilay nataony tamin’ ny Zanak’ isiraely.
12 Then he took his place in front of the altar of the Lord, all the men of Israel being present,
Ary Solomona nitsangana teo anoloan’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah teo anatrehan’ ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ka namelatra ny tànany
13 (For Solomon had made a brass stage, five cubits long, five cubits wide and three cubits high, and had put it in the middle of the open space; on this he took his place and went down on his knees before all the meeting of Israel, stretching out his hands to heaven.)
fa efa nanao fitaingenana varahina izy, ary napetrany teo afovoan’ ny kianja io (dimy hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy hakiho ny sakany, ary telo hakiho ny hahavony); dia nitsangana teo amin’ io izy ka nandohalika teo anatrehan’ ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ary namelatra ny tànany manandrify ny lanitra
14 And he said, O Lord, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven or on earth; keeping faith and mercy unchanging for your servants, while they go in your ways with all their hearts;
ka nanao hoe: Ry Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, tsy misy Andriamanitra tahaka Anao, na any an-danitra na etỳ an-tany, Izay mitandrina ny fanekenao sy ny famindram-ponao ho an’ ny mpanomponao izay mandeha eo anatrehanao amin’ ny fony rehetra,
15 For you have kept the word which you gave to your servant David, my father; with your mouth you said it and with your hand you have made it come true this day.
sady efa nahatanteraka tamin’ i Davida raiko mpanomponao ilay nolazainao taminy; fa nolazain’ ny vavanao izany, dia notanterahin’ ny tananao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao.
16 So now, O Lord, the God of Israel, let your word to your servant David, my father, come true, when you said, You will never be without a man to take his place before me on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; if only your children give attention to their ways, walking in my law, as you have done before me.
Koa tanteraho amin’ i Davida raiko mpanomponao, Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, ilay nolazainao taminy hoe: Tsy ho diso zanakalahy eo anatrehako ianao hipetraka amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely, raha ny zanakao mitandrina ny alehany ka mankatò ny lalàko tahaka ny nandehananao teo anatrehako.
17 So now, O Lord, the God of Israel, make your word come true which you said to your servant David.
Koa ankehitriny, ry Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, mifona amina aho, aoka ho tò anie ny teninao, izay nolazainao tamin’ i Davida mpanomponao.
18 But is it truly possible that God may be housed with men on earth? see, heaven and the heaven of heavens are not wide enough to be your resting-place: how much less this house which I have made:
Andriamanitra va dia honina amin’ ny olona etỳ an-tany tokoa? He! ny lanitra, ary ny lanitry ny lanitra aza, tsy omby Anao, koa mainka fa ity trano nataoko ity!
19 Still, let your heart be turned to the prayer of your servant and to his prayer for grace, O Lord my God, and give ear to the cry and the prayer which your servant makes before you;
Koa atreho ny fivavaka sy ny fifonan’ ny mpanomponao, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, mba hohenoinao ny fitarainana sy ny fivavaka izay ataon’ ny mpanomponao eto anatrehanao,
20 That your eyes may be open to this house day and night, to this place of which you have said that you would put your name there; to give ear to the prayer which your servant may make, turning to this place.
mba hihiratan’ ny masonao andro aman’ alina amin’ ity trano ity, dia amin’ ny fitoerana nolazainao hoe: Ao no hasiako ny anarako, hihainoanao ny vavaka izay ataon’ ny mpanomponao manatrika ity fitoerana ity.
21 And give ear to the prayers of your servant and of your people Israel, when they make their prayers, turning to this place; give ear from heaven your living-place; and hearing have mercy.
Ary henoy ny fifonan’ ny mpanomponao sy ny Isiraely olonao, raha mivavaka manatrika ity fitoerana ity izy; dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao; eny, mihainoa, ka mamelà heloka.
22 If a man does wrong to his neighbour and has to take an oath, and comes before your altar to take his oath in this house:
Raha misy olona manota amin’ ny namany, ary ampianianiny, ka tonga hianiana eo anoloan’ ny alitaranao amin’ ity trano ity izy,
23 Then let your ear be open in heaven, and be the judge of your servants, giving punishment to the wrongdoer, so that his sin may come on his head; and, by your decision, keeping from evil him who has done no wrong.
dia mihainoa any an-danitra Hianao, ka manaova, ary mitsarà ny mpanomponao, hamaly ny ratsy fanahy ka hampitsingerina ny nataony ho amin’ ny lohany, ary hanamarina ny marina kosa ka hanome azy araka ny fahamarinany.
24 And if your people Israel are overcome in war, because of their sin against you; if they are turned to you again, honouring your name, making prayers and requesting your grace in this house:
Raha resy eo anoloan’ ny fahavalo ny Isiraely olonao noho ny nanotany taminao, ary miverina sy manaiky ny anaranao indray ka mivavaka sy mifona eto anatrehanao amin’ ity trano ity izy,
25 Then give ear from heaven, and let the sin of your people Israel have forgiveness, and take them back again to the land which you gave to them and to their fathers.
dia mihainoa any an-danitra, Hianao, ka mamelà ny fahotan’ ny Isiraely olonao, ary ampodio amin’ ny tany nomenao azy sy ny razany izy.
26 When heaven is shut up and there is no rain, because of their sin against you: if they make prayers with their faces turned to this place, honouring your name and turning away from their sin when you send trouble on them:
Raha mihantona ny andro, ka tsy misy ranonorana noho ny nanotan’ ny olona taminao, ary mivavaka manatrika ity fitoerana ity izy ka manaiky ny anaranao sady miala amin’ ny fahotany, satria ampahorinao,
27 Then give ear from heaven, so that the sin of your servants and the sin of your people Israel may have forgiveness, when you make clear to them the good way in which they are to go; and send rain on your land which you have given to your people for their heritage.
dia mihainoa any an-danitra Hianao, ka mamelà ny fahotan’ ny mpanomponao, dia ny Isiraely olonao, satria atoronao azy ny lalana tsara izay tokony halehany, ary mandatsaha ranonorana amin’ ny taninao, izay nomenao ho lovan’ ny olonao.
28 If there is no food in the land, if there is disease, if the fruits of the earth are damaged by heat or water, locust or worm; if their towns are shut in by their attackers: whatever trouble or whatever disease there may be:
Raha misy mosary amin’ ny tany, na areti-mandringana, na mainan’ ny rivotra ny vary, na maty fotsy, na misy valala sy sompanga, na misy fahavalo manao fahirano azy ao amin’ ny taniny, dia ao amin’ ny tanànany, na inona fahoriana, na inona aretina,
29 Whatever prayer or request for your grace is made by any man, or by all your people Israel, whatever his trouble may be, whose hands are stretched out to this house:
izay vavaka rehetra sy fifonana rehetra ataon’ olona, na ny Isiraely olonao rehetra, izay samy mahalala ny fahoriany sy ny alahelony avy, ka mamelatra ny tànany manatrika ity trano ity izy,
30 Then give ear from heaven your living-place, answering with forgiveness, and give to every man, whose secret heart is open to you, the reward of all his ways; (for you, and you only, have knowledge of the hearts of the children of men; )
dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao, ka mamelà heloka, ka omeo ny olona araka ny alehany rehetra, fa fantatrao ny fony (fa Hianao dia Hianao irery ihany no mahalala ny fon’ ny zanak’ olombelona, )
31 So that they may give you worship, walking in your ways, as long as they are living in the land which you gave to our fathers.
mba hatahorany Anao sy handehanany amin’ ny lalanao amin’ izay andro rehetra hiainany etỳ amin’ ny tany nomenao ny razanay.
32 And as for the man from a strange land, who is not of your people Israel but comes from a far country because of the glory of your name and your strong hand and your outstretched arm; when he comes to make his prayer, turning to this house:
Ary henoy koa ny vahiny izay tsy isan’ ny Isiraely olonao, fa tonga avy any amin’ ny tany lavitra noho ny amin’ ny anaranao lehibe sy ny tananao mahery ary ny sandrinao ahinjitra, koa raha avy izy ka mivavaka manatrika ity trano ity,
33 Then give ear from heaven your living-place, and give him his desire, whatever it may be; so that all the peoples of the earth may have knowledge of your name, worshipping you as do your people Israel, and may see that this house which I have made is truly named by your name.
dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao, ka manaova araka izay rehetra iantsoan’ ny vahiny Anao, mba ho fantatry ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany ny anaranao hatahorany Anao tahaka ny ataon’ ny Isiraely olonao ihany, ary mba ho fantany fa ny anaranao no efa nantsoina tamin’ ity trano nataoko ity.
34 If your people go out to war against their attackers, by whatever way you may send them, if they make their prayers to you turning their faces to this town of yours and to this house which I have put up for your name:
Raha mivoaka hiady amin’ ny fahavalony ny olonao, na ho aiza na ho aiza no hanirahanao azy, ka mivavaka aminao manandrify ity tanana izay nofidinao ity sy ny trano izay nataoko ho an’ ny anaranao izy,
35 Then give ear from heaven to their prayer and their cry for grace, and see right done to them.
dia henoy any an-danitra ny fivavany sy ny fifonany, ka omeo rariny izy.
36 If they do wrong against you, (for no man is without sin, ) and you are angry with them, and give them up into the power of those who are fighting against them, so that they take them away prisoners to a land far off or near;
Raha manota aminao izy (fa tsy misy olombelona tsy manota), ka tezitra aminy Hianao ary manolotra azy eo anoloan’ ny fahavalony, ka dia entin’ ny mpamabo ho babo any amin’ ny tany na ho lavitra na ho akaiky izy,
37 And if they take thought, in the land where they are prisoners, turning again to you, crying out in prayer to you in that land, and saying, We are sinners, we have done wrong, we have done evil;
ary mahatsiaro any amin’ ny tany nitondrana azy ho babo izy ka mibebaka sy mifona aminao any amin’ ny tany izay nitondrana azy ho babo ary manao hoe: Efa nanota izahay sady efa nanao meloka sy efa nanao ratsy,
38 If with all their heart and soul they are turned again to you, in the land where they are prisoners, the land where they have been taken, and make their prayers, turning their eyes to their land which you gave to their fathers, and to the town which you took for yourself, and the house which I have made for your name:
ka dia miverina aminao amin’ ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra izy ao amin’ ny tany nitondrana azy ho babo ary mivavaka manandrify ny taniny izay nomenao ny razany sy ny tanàna izay nofidinao ary ny trano izay nataoko ho an’ ny anaranao,
39 Then give ear from heaven your living-place to their prayer and their cry, and see right done to them, answering with forgiveness your people who have done wrong against you.
dia henoy any an-danitra fonenanao ny fivavany sy ny fifonanao ka omeo rariny izy; ary mamelà ny olonao izay efa nanota taminao.
40 Now, O my God, may your eyes be open and your ears awake to the prayers made in this place.
Ankehitriny, ry Andriamanitro ô, mifona aminao aho, aoka hihiratra ny masonao, an aoka ny sofinao hihaino ny vavaka atao amin’ ity fitoerana ity.
41 Up! now, O Lord God, come back to your resting-place, you and the ark of your strength: let your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and let your saints be glad in what is good.
Koa ankehitriny mitsangàna, ry Jehovah Andriamanitra ô, ho amin’ ny fitsaharanao, dia Hianao sy ny fiaran’ ny herinao; aoka ny mpisoronao hitafy famonjena, Jehovah Andriamanitra ô, ary aoka ny olonao masìna hifaly amin’ ny soa.
42 O Lord God, let him whom you have taken for yourself never be given up by you: keep in mind your mercies to David your servant.
Ry Jehovah Andriamanitra ô, aza lavinao ny voahosotrao; tsarovy ny famindram-po nampanantenaina an’ i Davida mpanomponao.
