1 Kings 8
1 Then all those greater by birth of Israel, with the leaders of the tribes and the rulers of the families of the sons of Israel, gathered together before king Solomon at Jerusalem, so that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, from the city of David, that is, from Zion.
Tada sabra Solomun starješine Izrailjeve i sve glavare plemenske, knezove domova otaèkih sinova Izrailjevijeh, k sebi u Jerusalim da se prenese kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega iz grada Davidova, a to je Sion.
2 And all of Israel assembled before king Solomon, on the solemn day in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
I skupiše se k caru Solomunu svi ljudi Izrailjevi mjeseca Etanima na praznik, a taj je mjesec sedmi.
3 And all the elders of Israel arrived, and the priests took up the ark.
I kad doðoše sve starješine Izrailjeve, podigoše sveštenici kovèeg;
4 And they carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the Sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle; and the priests and the Levites carried these.
I prenesoše kovèeg Gospodnji i šator od sastanka i sve sude svete što bjehu u šatoru; prenesoše ih sveštenici i Leviti.
5 Then king Solomon, and the entire multitude of Israel, who had assembled before him, advanced with him before the ark. And they immolated sheep and oxen, which could not be numbered or estimated.
A car Solomun i sav zbor Izrailjev, koji se sabra k njemu, prinesoše s njim pred kovèegom ovaca i goveda toliko da se ne mogaše ni izbrojiti ni proraèunati od mnoštva.
6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, into the oracle of the temple, in the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubim.
I unesoše sveštenici kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega na njegovo mjesto, u unutrašnji dom, u svetinju nad svetinjama, pod krila heruvimima.
7 For indeed, the cherubim extended their wings over the place of the ark, and they protected the ark and its bars from above.
Jer heruvimima bijahu raširena krila nad mjestom gdje æe stajati kovèeg, i zaklanjahu heruvimi kovèeg i poluge njegove ozgo.
8 And since the bars projected outward, their ends were visible from without, in the Sanctuary before the oracle; but they were not visible farther outward. And they have been in that place even to the present day.
I povukoše mu poluge tako da se krajevi viðahu u svetinji na prednjoj strani svetinje nad svetinjama, ali se napolje ne viðahu; i ondje ostaše do današnjega dana.
9 Now inside the ark, there was nothing other than the two tablets of stone, which Moses had placed in it at Horeb, when the Lord formed a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they departed from the land of Egypt.
U kovèegu ne bješe ništa osim dvije ploèe kamene, koje metnu u nj Mojsije na Horivu, kad Gospod uèini zavjet sa sinovima Izrailjevijem pošto izidoše iz zemlje Misirske.
10 Then it happened that, when the priests had exited from the Sanctuary, a cloud filled the house of the Lord.
A kad sveštenici izidoše iz svetinje, oblak napuni dom Gospodnji,
11 And the priests were unable to stand and minister, because of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.
Te ne mogahu sveštenici stajati da služe od oblaka; jer se slave Gospodnje napuni dom Gospodnji.
12 Then Solomon said: “The Lord has said that he would dwell in a cloud.
Tada reèe Solomun: Gospod je rekao da æe nastavati u mraku.
13 Building, I have built a house as your dwelling place, your most firm throne forever.”
Sazidah dom tebi za stan, mjesto, da u njemu nastavaš dovijeka.
14 And the king turned his face, and he blessed the entire assembly of Israel. For the entire assembly of Israel was standing.
I okrenuvši se licem svojim car blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, a sav zbor Izrailjev stajaše.
15 And Solomon said: “Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to my father David, and who, with his own hands, has perfected it, saying:
I reèe: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je govorio svojim ustima Davidu ocu mojemu i ispunio rukom svojom, govoreæi:
16 ‘From the day when I led my people Israel away from Egypt, I did not choose any city out of all the tribes of Israel, so that a house would be built, and so that my name might be there. Instead, I chose David to be over my people Israel.’
Od onoga dana kad izvedoh iz Misira narod svoj Izrailja ne izabrah nijednoga grada meðu svijem plemenima Izrailjevijem da se sazida dom gdje bi bilo ime moje, nego izabrah Davida da bude nad narodom mojim Izrailjem.
17 And my father David wanted to build a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
I naumi David otac moj da sazida dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.
18 But the Lord said to my father David: ‘Since you have planned in your heart to build a house to my name, you have done well by considering this plan in your mind.
Ali Gospod reèe Davidu ocu mojemu: što si naumio sazidati dom imenu mojemu, dobro si uèinio što si to naumio;
19 Yet truly, you shall not build a house for me. Instead, your son, who shall go forth from your loins, he himself shall build a house to my name.’
Ali neæeš ti sazidati toga doma, nego sin tvoj, koji æe izaæi iz bedara tvojih, on æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu.
20 The Lord has confirmed his word which he spoke. And so I stand in place of my father David, and I sit upon the throne of Israel, just as the Lord said. And I have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
I tako ispuni Gospod rijeè svoju koju reèe; jer ustah na mjesto oca svojega Davida, i sjedoh na prijesto Izrailjev, kao što reèe Gospod, i sazidah ovaj dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.
21 And there I have appointed a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord that he struck with our fathers, when they went forth from the land of Egypt.”
I odredih ovdje mjesto kovèegu u kom je zavjet Gospodnji što je uèinio s ocima našim kad ih je izveo iz zemlje Misirske.
22 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord, in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and he extended his hands toward heaven.
Potom stade Solomun pred oltar Gospodnji pred svijem zborom Izrailjevijem, i podiže ruke svoje k nebu,
23 And he said: “Lord God of Israel, there is no God like you, in heaven above, nor on the earth below. You preserve covenant and mercy with your servants, who walk before you with all their heart.
I reèe: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! nema Boga takoga kakav si ti gore na nebu ni dolje na zemlji, koji èuvaš zavjet i milost slugama svojim, koje hode pred tobom svijem srcem svojim;
24 You have fulfilled, for your servant David, my father, that which you said to him. With your mouth, you spoke; and with your hands, you completed; just as this day proves.
Koji si ispunio sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao; što si ustima svojim rekao to si rukom svojom ispunio, kao što se vidi danas.
25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, fulfill, for your servant David, my father, that which you spoke to him, saying, ‘There shall not be taken away from you a man before me, who may sit upon the throne of Israel, if only your sons will guard their way, so that they walk before me, just as you have walked in my sight.’
Sada dakle, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, drži sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao govoreæi: neæe ti nestati èovjeka ispred mene koji bi sjedio na prijestolu Izrailjevu, samo ako sinovi tvoji ušèuvaju put svoj hodeæi preda mnom, kao što si ti hodio preda mnom.
26 And now, O Lord God of Israel, establish your words, which you spoke to your servant David, my father.
Sada dakle, Bože Izrailjev, neka se potvrdi rijeè tvoja koju si rekao sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu.
27 Is it, then, to be understood that truly God would dwell upon the earth? For if heaven, and the heavens of heavens, are not able to contain you, how much less this house, which I have built?
Ali hoæe li doista Bog stanovati na zemlji? Eto, nebo i nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu te obuhvatiti, akamoli ovaj dom što ga sazidah?
28 Yet look with favor upon the prayer of your servant and upon his petitions, O Lord, my God. Listen to the hymn and the prayer, which your servant prays before you this day,
Ali pogledaj na molitvu sluge svojega i na molbu njegovu, Gospode Bože moj, èuj viku i molitvu, kojim ti se danas moli sluga tvoj;
29 so that your eyes may be open over this house, night and day, over the house about which you said, ‘My name shall be there,’ so that you may heed the prayer that your servant is praying in this place to you.
Da budu oèi tvoje otvorene nad domom ovijem dan i noæ, nad ovijem mjestom, za koje si rekao: tu æe biti ime moje; da èuješ molitvu kojom æe se moliti sluga tvoj na ovom mjestu.
30 So may you heed the supplication of your servant and of your people Israel, whatever they will pray for in this place, and so may you heed them in your dwelling place in heaven. And when you heed, you will be gracious.
Èuj molbu sluge svojega i naroda svojega Izrailja, kojom æe se moliti na ovom mjestu; èuj s mjesta gdje stanuješ, s neba, èuj, i smiluj se.
31 But if any man sins against his neighbor, and he has any kind of an oath by which he is bound, and he arrives because of the oath, before your altar in your house,
Kad ko zgriješi bližnjemu svojemu te mu se da zakletva da se zakune, i zakletva doðe pred tvoj oltar u ovom domu,
32 you will hear in heaven, and you will act and judge your servants, condemning the impious, and repaying his own way upon his own head, but justifying the just, and rewarding him in accord with his justice.
Ti èuj s neba, i uèini i sudi slugama svojim, osuðujuæi krivca i djela njegova obraæajuæi na njegovu glavu, a pravoga pravdajuæi i plaæajuæi mu po pravdi njegovoj.
33 And if your people Israel will have fled from their enemies, because they have sinned against you, and doing penance and confessing to your name, shall arrive and pray and petition you in this house,
Kad razbiju neprijatelji narod tvoj Izrailja zato što ti zgriješe, pa se obrate k tebi i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu, i pomole ti se i zamole te u ovom domu,
34 listen in heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and lead them back to the land, which you gave to their fathers.
Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh narodu svojemu Izrailju, i dovedi ih opet u zemlju koju si dao ocima njihovijem.
35 And if the heavens have closed, so that there is no rain, because of their sins, and they, praying in this place, shall do penance to your name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions,
Kad se zatvori nebo, te ne bude dažda zato što zgriješe tebi, pa ti se zamole na ovom mjestu i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu, i od grijeha se svojega obrate, kad ih namuèiš,
36 hear them from heaven, and forgive the sins of your servants and of your people Israel. And reveal to them the good way, along which they should walk, and grant rain upon your land, which you have given to your people as a possession.
Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh slugama svojim i narodu svojemu Izrailju pokazav im put dobri kojim æe hoditi, i pusti dažd na zemlju svoju, koju si dao narodu svojemu u našljedstvo.
37 Then, if famine rises over the land, or pestilence, or corrupt air, or blight, or locust, or mildew, or if their enemy afflicts them, besieging the gates, or any harm or infirmity,
Kad bude glad u zemlji, kad bude pomor, suša, medljika, skakavci, gusjenice, ili kad ga pritijesni neprijatelj njegov u zemlji njegovoj vlastitoj, ili kako god zlo, kaka god bolest,
38 or whatever curse or divine intervention may happen to any man among your people Israel, if anyone understands, having been wounded in his heart, and if he will have extended his hands in this house,
Svaku molbu i svaku molitvu, koja bude od koga god èovjeka ili od svega tvojega naroda Izrailja, ko pozna muku srca svojega i podigne ruke svoje u ovom domu,
39 you will hear in heaven, in your dwelling place, and you will forgive. And you will act so that you give to each one in accord with his own ways, just as you see in his heart, for you alone know the heart of all the sons of men.
Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i smiluj se i uèini i podaj svakome po svijem putovima njegovijem, koje znaš u srcu njegovu; jer ti sam znaš srca svijeh sinova èovjeèijih;
40 So may they fear you, all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which you have given to our fathers.
Da te se boje dokle su god živi na zemlji koju si dao ocima našim.
41 Moreover, the foreigner too, who is not of your people Israel, when he will have arrived from a distant land because of your name, for they shall hear about your great name, and your strong hand,
I stranac, koji nije od tvojega naroda Izrailja, nego doðe iz daljnje zemlje imena tvojega radi,
42 and your outstretched arm everywhere: so when he arrives and prays in this place,
Jer æe se èuti za ime tvoje veliko i za ruku tvoju krjepku i mišicu tvoju podignutu) kad doðe i pomoli se u ovom domu,
43 you will listen in heaven, in the firmament of your dwelling place. And you will do all the things, for which that foreigner will have called upon you. So may all the peoples of the earth learn to fear your name, just as your people Israel do. And so may they show that your name has been invoked over this house, which I have built.
Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i uèini sve za što povièe k tebi onaj stranac, da bi poznali ime tvoje svi narodi na zemlji i bojali se tebe kao narod tvoj Izrailj, i da bi znali da je ime tvoje prizvano nad ovijem domom, koji sazidah.
44 And if your people have gone out to war against their enemies, along whatever way you will send them, they shall pray to you in the direction of the city, which you have chosen, and toward the house, which I have built to your name.
Kad narod tvoj izide na vojsku na neprijatelja svojega putem kojim ga pošlješ, i pomole se Gospodu obrativši se ka gradu, koji si izabrao, i k domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,
45 And you will hear in heaven their prayers and their petitions. And you will accomplish judgment for them.
Èuj s neba molbu njihovu, i podaj im pravicu.
46 But if they sin against you, for there is no man who does not sin, and you, being angry, deliver them to their enemies, and they will have been led away as captives to the land of their enemies, whether far or near,
Kad ti zgriješe, jer nema èovjeka koji ne griješi, i razgnjevivši se na njih daš ih neprijateljima njihovijem, te ih zarobe i odvedu u zemlju neprijateljsku daleko ili blizu,
47 and if they do penance in their heart, in the place of captivity, and having been converted, make supplication to you in their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned; we acted unjustly; we committed impiety,’
Ako se dozovu u zemlji u koju budu odvedeni u ropstvo, i obrate se i stanu ti se moliti u zemlji onijeh koji ih zarobiše, i reku: sagriješismo i zlo uèinismo, skrivismo,
48 and they return to you with all their heart and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they have been led away as captives, and if they pray to you in the direction of their land, which you gave to their fathers, and of the city, which you have chosen, and of the temple, which I have built to your name:
I tako se obrate k tebi svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom u zemlji neprijatelja svojih, koji ih zarobe, i pomole ti se okrenuvši se k zemlji svojoj, koju si dao ocima njihovijem, ka gradu, koji si izabrao, i k domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,
49 you will hear in heaven, in the firmament of your throne, their prayers and their petitions. And you will accomplish their judgment.
Tada èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, molbu njihovu i molitvu njihovu, i podaj im pravicu,
50 And you will forgive your people, who have sinned against you, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against you. And you will grant to them mercy in the sight of those who have made them captives, so that they may take pity on them.
I oprosti narodu svojemu što ti budu zgriješili, i sve prijestupe kojima ti budu prestupili, i umilostivi im one koji ih zarobe da se smiluju na njih.
51 For they are your people and your inheritance, whom you have led away from the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.
Jer su tvoj narod i tvoje našljedstvo, koje si izveo iz Misira, isred peæi gvozdene.
52 So may your eyes be open to the supplication of your servant and of your people Israel. And so may you heed them in all the things about which they will call upon you.
Neka budu oèi tvoje otvorene na molbu sluge tvojega i na molbu naroda tvojega Izrailja, i èuj ih kad te god prizovu.
53 For you have separated them to yourself as an inheritance, from among all the peoples of the earth, just as you spoke by Moses, your servant, when you led our fathers away from Egypt, O Lord God.”
Jer si ih ti odvojio sebi za našljedstvo od svijeh naroda na zemlji, kao što si rekao preko Mojsija sluge svojega, kad si izveo oce naše iz Misira, Gospode, Gospode!
54 And it happened that, when Solomon had completed praying this entire prayer and supplication to the Lord, he rose up from the sight of the altar of the Lord. For he had fixed both knees upon the ground, and he had extended his hands toward heaven.
A kad Solomun moleæi se Gospodu svrši svu ovu molbu i molitvu, usta ispred oltara Gospodnjega, gdje bješe klekao i ruke svoje podigao k nebu;
55 Then he stood and blessed the entire assembly of Israel in a great voice, saying:
I stojeæi blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, glasom velikim govoreæi:
56 “Blessed is the Lord, who has given rest to his people Israel, in accord with all that he said. Not even one word, out of all the good things that he spoke by his servant Moses, has fallen away.
Blagosloven da je Gospod koji je smirio narod svoj Izrailja, kao što je govorio; nije izostala nijedna rijeè od svijeh dobrijeh rijeèi njegovijeh, koje je govorio preko Mojsija sluge svojega.
57 May the Lord our God be with us, just as he was with our fathers, not abandoning us, and not rejecting us.
Da Gospod Bog naš bude s nama kao što je bio s ocima našim, da nas ne ostavi i ne napusti.
58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, so that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and whatever judgments he commanded to our fathers.
Nego neka prigne srce naše k sebi da bismo hodili svijem putovima njegovijem i držali zapovijesti njegove i uredbe njegove i zakone njegove, što je zapovjedio ocima našim.
59 And may these my words, by which I have prayed before the Lord, be near to the Lord our God, day and night, so that he may accomplish judgment for his servant and for his people Israel, throughout each day.
I neka budu ove rijeèi moje, kojima se molih Gospodu, blizu Gospoda Boga našega dan i noæ, da bi davao pravicu sluzi svojemu i narodu svojemu Izrailju u svako doba;
60 So may all the peoples of the earth know that the Lord himself is God, and there is no other beside him.
Da bi poznali svi narodi na zemlji da je Gospod sam Bog i da nema drugoga.
61 Also, may our hearts be perfect with the Lord our God, so that we may walk in his decrees, and keep his commandments, as also on this day.”
I neka srce vaše bude cijelo prema Gospodu Bogu našem, da hodite po uredbama njegovijem i držite zapovijesti njegove kao danas.
62 Then the king, and all of Israel with him, immolated victims before the Lord.
Tada car i sav Izrailj s njim prinesoše žrtve pred Gospodom.
63 And Solomon slew sacrifices of peace offerings, which he immolated to the Lord: twenty-two thousand oxen, and twenty thousand one hundred sheep. And the king and all the sons of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.
I Solomun prinese na žrtvu zahvalnu, koju prinese Gospodu, dvadeset i dvije tisuæe volova i sto i dvadeset tisuæa ovaca. Tako posvetiše dom Gospodnji car i svi sinovi Izrailjevi.
64 On that day, the king sanctified the middle of the atrium, which was before the house of the Lord. For in that place, he offered holocaust, and sacrifice, and the fat of peace offerings. For the bronze altar, which was before the Lord, was too small and was not able to hold the holocaust, and the sacrifice, and the fat of the peace offerings.
U taj dan posveti car sredinu trijema koji je pred domom Gospodnjim; jer ondje prinese žrtve paljenice i dare i pretilinu od žrtava zahvalnijeh; jer mjedeni oltar koji bijaše pred Gospodom bijaše malen i ne mogahu na nj stati žrtve paljenice i dari i pretilina od žrtava zahvalnijeh.
65 Then Solomon made, at that time, a celebratory festival, and all of Israel with him, a great multitude, from the entrance of Hamath to the river of Egypt, in the sight of the Lord our God, for seven days plus seven days, that is, fourteen days.
I u to vrijeme praznova Solomun praznik i sav Izrailj s njim, sabor velik od ulaska u Emat do potoka Misirskoga, pred Gospodom Bogom našim, sedam dana i opet sedam dana, to je èetrnaest dana.
66 And on the eighth day, he dismissed the people. And blessing the king, they set out for their tents, rejoicing and cheerful in heart over all the good things that the Lord had done for his servant David and for his people Israel.
A u osmi dan otpusti narod; i blagosloviše cara i otidoše k šatorima svojim radujuæi se i veseleæi se u srcu za sve dobro što uèini Gospod Davidu sluzi svojemu i Izrailju narodu svojemu.
