< 1 Kings 8 >

1 Then all the ancients of Israel with the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.
Nígbà náà ni Solomoni pe àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli àti gbogbo àwọn olórí àwọn ẹ̀yà àti àwọn olórí ìdílé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jọ papọ̀, níwájú Solomoni ọba ní Jerusalẹmu, láti gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa wá láti ìlú Dafidi, tí ń ṣe Sioni.
2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.
Gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì pe ara wọn jọ sọ́dọ̀ Solomoni ọba ní àkókò àjọ ọdún ní oṣù Etanimu tí í ṣe oṣù keje.
3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,
Nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli dé, àwọn àlùfáà sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí,
4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.
wọ́n sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa àti àgọ́ àjọ ènìyàn àti gbogbo ohun èlò mímọ́ tí ó wà nínú àgọ́. Àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì gbé wọn gòkè wá,
5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.
àti Solomoni ọba, àti gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó péjọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí, wọ́n ń fi ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àgùntàn àti màlúù tí a kò le mọ iye, àti tí a kò le kà rú ẹbọ.
6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.
Nígbà náà ni àwọn àlùfáà gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí ti májẹ̀mú Olúwa wá sí ipò rẹ̀, sí ibi inú lọ́hùn ún ilé Olúwa, Ibi Mímọ́ Jùlọ, wọ́n gbé e sí abẹ́ ìyẹ́ àwọn kérúbù.
7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.
Àwọn kérúbù na ìyẹ́ wọn méjèèjì sí ibi àpótí ẹ̀rí, wọ́n sì bo àpótí ẹ̀rí náà, àti àwọn ọ̀pá rẹ̀ tí a fi ń gbé e.
8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.
Àwọn ọ̀pá yìí ga tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí a fi le rí orí wọn láti Ibi Mímọ́ níwájú ibi tí a yà sí mímọ́, ṣùgbọ́n a kò sì rí wọn lóde Ibi Mímọ́, wọ́n sì wà níbẹ̀ títí di òní yìí.
9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, 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.
Kò sí ohun kankan nínú àpótí ẹ̀rí bí kò ṣe wàláà òkúta méjì tí Mose ti fi sí ibẹ̀ ní Horebu, níbi tí Olúwa ti bá àwọn ọmọ Israẹli dá májẹ̀mú, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,
Nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà jáde láti Ibi Mímọ́, àwọsánmọ̀ sì kún ilé Olúwa.
11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.
Àwọn àlùfáà kò sì le ṣiṣẹ́ wọn nítorí àwọsánmọ̀ náà, nítorí ògo Olúwa kún ilé náà.
12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.
Nígbà náà ni Solomoni sì wí pé, “Olúwa ti wí pé, òun yóò máa gbé inú òkùnkùn biribiri.
13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.
Nítòótọ́, èmi ti kọ́ ilé kan fún ọ, ibi tí ìwọ yóò máa gbé títí láéláé.”
14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.
Nígbà tí gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli sì dúró síbẹ̀, ọba sì yí ojú rẹ̀, ó sì bùkún fún wọn.
15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:
Nígbà náà ni ó wí pé, “Ìbùkún ni fún Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ẹni tí ó ti fi ọwọ́ ara rẹ̀ mú ìlérí tí ó fi ẹnu rẹ̀ sọ fún Dafidi baba mi ṣẹ. Nítorí tí ó wí pé,
16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.
‘Láti ọjọ́ tí èmi ti mú àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti, èmi kò tí ì yan ìlú kan nínú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ mi láti wà níbẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ti yan Dafidi láti ṣàkóso àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn mi.’
17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:
“Dafidi baba mi sì ní i lọ́kàn láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.
Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa sì wí fún Dafidi baba mi pé, ‘Nítorí tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ mi, ó dára láti ní èyí ní ọkàn rẹ.
19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.
Ṣùgbọ́n, ìwọ kọ́ ni yóò kọ́ ilé náà, ṣùgbọ́n ọmọ rẹ, tí ó tinú ara rẹ àti ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ jáde; òun ni yóò kọ́ ilé náà fún orúkọ mi.’
20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.
“Olúwa sì ti pa ìlérí rẹ̀ tí ó ṣe mọ́, èmi sì ti rọ́pò Dafidi baba mi, mo sì jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli báyìí, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti ṣèlérí, èmi sì kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
Èmi sì ti pèsè ibìkan níbẹ̀ fún àpótí ẹ̀rí, èyí tí í ṣe májẹ̀mú Olúwa tí ó ti bá àwọn baba wa dá, nígbà tí ó mú wọn jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá.”
22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;
Solomoni sì dúró níwájú pẹpẹ Olúwa, níwájú gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli, ó sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì sókè ọ̀run.
23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.
Ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, kò sí Ọlọ́run tí ó dàbí rẹ lókè ọ̀run tàbí ní ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀ ìwọ tí ó pa májẹ̀mú àti àánú mọ́ pẹ̀lú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ tí ń fi gbogbo ọkàn wọn rìn níwájú rẹ.
24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.
O sì ti pa ìlérí rẹ mọ́ fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ Dafidi baba mi; pẹ̀lú ẹnu rẹ ni ìwọ ṣe ìlérí, o sì mú u ṣẹ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ rẹ, bí ó ti rí lónìí.
25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.
“Ǹjẹ́ báyìí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, bá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Dafidi baba mi pa ohun tí ìwọ ti ṣe ìlérí fún un mọ́ wí pé, ìwọ kì yóò kùnà láti ní ènìyàn kan láti jókòó níwájú mi lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli, kìkì bí àwọn ọmọ rẹ bá lè kíyèsi ohun tí wọ́n ń ṣe láti máa rìn níwájú mi bí ìwọ ti rìn.
26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.

27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?
“Ṣùgbọ́n nítòótọ́, Ọlọ́run yóò máa gbé ayé bí? Ọ̀run àti ọ̀run àwọn ọ̀run kò le gbà ọ́. Kí a má sọ pé ilé yìí tí mo kọ́ fún ọ!
28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:

29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.

30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.

31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,
“Nígbà tí ẹnìkan bá ṣẹ̀ sí ẹnìkejì rẹ̀, tí a sì fi wá lé e láti mú un búra, bí ìbúra náà bá sì dé iwájú pẹpẹ rẹ ní ilé yìí,
32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.

33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee, ) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:
“Nígbà tí àwọn ọ̀tá bá ṣẹ́gun Israẹli, ènìyàn rẹ, nítorí tí wọ́n ti ṣẹ̀ sí ọ, tí wọ́n bá yípadà sí ọ, tí wọ́n sì jẹ́wọ́ orúkọ rẹ, tí wọ́n sì gbàdúrà, tí wọ́n sì bẹ̀bẹ̀ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ nínú ilé yìí

41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name’s sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,
“Ní ti àwọn àlejò tí kì í ṣe Israẹli ènìyàn rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n tí ó ti ilẹ̀ òkèèrè jáde wá nítorí orúkọ rẹ,

43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.

44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:
“Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ bá jáde lọ sí ogun sí àwọn ọ̀tá wọn, níbikíbi tí ìwọ bá rán wọn, nígbà tí wọ́n bá gbàdúrà sí Olúwa sí ìhà ìlú tí ìwọ ti yàn àti síhà ilé tí mo ti kọ́ fún orúkọ rẹ,

46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;

54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.

55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:
Ó sì dìde dúró ó sì fi ohùn rara súre fún gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli wí pé,
56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.
“Ìbùkún ni fún Olúwa tí ó ti fi ìsinmi fún Israẹli, ènìyàn rẹ̀ bí ó ti ṣèlérí. Kò sí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ kan tí ó kùnà nínú gbogbo ìlérí rere tí ó ti ṣe láti ọwọ́ Mose ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wá.
57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:

58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.

59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:

62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.
Nígbà náà ni ọba àti gbogbo Israẹli rú ẹbọ níwájú Olúwa.
63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.

64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.

65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.

66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
