< 2 Chronicles 6 >
1 Then Solomon said: The Lord promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
Chuin Solomon chu ataovin, “O Pakai nangin muthim lhangkhal kiheh lah’a kachenge nanatin,
2 But I have built a house to his name, that he might dwell there for ever.
Tun keiman tonsotna nachen nading Houin loupitah khat kasahpeh tai,” ati.
3 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the multitude of Israel (for all the multitude stood attentive) and he said:
Chuin lengpa chun amasanga ding-Israel mipi lam chu angan ahung kiheidoh in, hitichun Pathen phatheina athumpeh in ahi.
4 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath accomplished in deed that which he spoke to David my father, saying:
“Vahchoiyun Pakai Israel Pathen chu, aman kapa koma akamcheng tah’a akitepna chu asuhbulhit ahitai, kapa jah’a anaseiyin,
5 From the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built in it to my name: neither chose I any other man, to be the ruler of my people Israel.
“Kami Israelte Egypt gam'a kahin puidoh nikhoa pat chun, Kamin ki jana ding Houin sahna ding in; Israel phung sunga khopi dang kalhengpoi chule kami Israelte chunga vaihom ding in koima dang kalhengpoi.
6 But I chose Jerusalem, that my name might be there: and I chose David to set him over my people Israel.
Ahinlah tun Keiman Jerusalem hi kamin kijabolna Houin mun dingin kalheng in, chule kami Israelte chunga leng ding in David hi kalhengtai,” ati.
7 And whereas David my father had a mind to build a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel,
Chuin Solomon chun, “Kapa David lungthimma Pakai Israel Pathen min jabolna ding Houin khat sahdoh nom na aum jing in ahi,” ati.
8 The Lord said to him: Forasmuch as it was thy will to build a house to my name, thou hast done well indeed in having such a will:
“Ahinlah Pakai chun kapa jah’a kamin jabolna ding Houin khat sahdinga nagel chu apha lheh’e atin ahi.
9 But thou shalt not build the house, but thy son, who shall come out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.
Hijongleh nangma hi Houin sading chu nahipoi, ahinlah natahsa le nathisana pengdoh nachapa tah chun, Kamin kijabol na ding Houin chu asahdoh joh ding ahi,” ati.
10 The Lord therefore hath accomplished his word which he spoke: and I am risen up in the place 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 God of Israel.
“Chule tun Pakai chun ana kitepna chu asubulhitnin kapa khellin lengpa kahung hitai, chule Pakai kitepna bangchun Israel laltouna a katoutai. Pakai Israel Pathen min jabolna dingin Houin khat kasadohtai.
11 And I have put in it the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with the children of Israel.
Hiche laimuna chun Pakai in ami Israelte toh akitepna kikoina Pathen thingkong chu kakoitai,” ati.
12 And he stood before the altar of the I Lord, in presence of all the multitude of Israel, and stretched forth his hands.
Chuin Solomon chu Israel pumpi masang Pakai maicham masanga chun ading doh in, akhut teni ajah in ataotan ahi.
13 For Solomon had made a brazen scaffold, and had set it in the midst of the temple, which was five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high: and he stood upon it: then kneeling down in the presence of all the multitude of Israel, and lifting up his hands towards heaven,
Tun Solomon chun Sum-enga kisem thuseina munkhat adung-avai tong nga, chule asan lam tong thum asemmin Houin leitol lailunga chun adotan ahi.
14 He said: O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven nor in earth: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:
Vo Pakai, Israel Pathen van le leiya nangma tobang Pathen dang aumpoi, nangman nakitepna nanit jing in, alungthim pumpia nangma kom hinjonna kipedohte nalungsetna longlou chu nachan jinge.
15 Who hast performed to thy servant David my father all that thou hast promised him: and hast accomplished in fact, what thou hast spoken with thy mouth, as also the present time proveth.
Nangman nalhachapa kapa David komma nakitepna nanit jinge, “Tun nangman nakam chengtah’a kitepna nasem chu nangma khut tah in nasubulhit tai,” tin Solomon chu ataovin ahi.
16 Now then, O Lord God of Israel, fulfill to thy servant David my father, whatsoever thou hast promised him, saying: There shall not fail thee a man in my sight, to sit upon the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their ways, and walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
Hijeh chun, “Vo Pakai Israel Pathen tun nalhacha kapa David komma kitepna adang nasem ho chu nitjing tan, nangman nabol bang banga na chilhah te jong lamdih’a achonnuva kadan thupeh ho kitahna neitah’a ajuidiu le amaho lah’a khat pen pen chu Israel laltouna a toujing ding ahi,” nati.
17 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy word be established which thou hast spoken to thy servant David.
“Vo Pakai, Israel Pathen tuhin nalhacha, David koma nakitepna chu subulhit jengtan,” ati.
18 Is it credible then that God should dwell with men on the earth? If heaven and the heavens of heavens do not contain thee, how much less this house, which I have built?
Ahinlah, Pathen chu leiset mihemte lah’a hi chengmong ding hinam? Ijeh-inem itileh vanchung sangpen hon jong nangma hi nadol lou ding ahi, chutileh keiman kasah Houin hi iti neova neo ding hitam?
19 But to this end only it is made, that thou mayest regard the prayer of thy servant and his supplication, O Lord my God: and mayest hear the prayers which thy servant poureth out before thee.
Chuti chu hijongle kataona leh kathumna hi eina ngaipeh teiyin,
20 That thou mayest open thy eyes upon this house day and night, upon the place wherein thou hast promised that thy name should be called upon,
asun ajanin hiche Houin a namin kijabolna dinga naseina mun hi nahin vetjing thei’a, chule nalhachate le namiten hiche mun lam nga-a taona ahin man tengule nahin ngai na din;
21 And that thou wouldst hear the prayer which thy servant prayeth in it: hearken then to the prayers of thy servant, and of thy people Israel. Whosoever shall pray in this place, hear thou from thy dwelling place, that is, from heaven, and shew mercy.
keima le nami Israel ten kineosahtah le ngaicha tah’a hiche langmun ngatna kahin ngeh tengule nahin ngaipeh theina dingun, nachenna mun vanna kon in hingaiyin lang najah tengle hin ngaidam in.
22 If any man sin against his neighbour, and come to swear against him, and bind himself with a curse before the altar in this house:
Koitobang hamkhatnin aheng akom chunga suhkhel neija themmo akichanteng kathemoe tia akihahselna dinga, hiche Houin maicham masanga ahung tengule,
23 Then hear thou from heaven, and do justice to thy servants, so as to requite the wicked by making his wickedness fall upon his own head, and to revenge the just, rewarding him according to his justice.
vanna konin hinngai inlang, thu hin tanpeh jengin; asukhel athemmopa chu achan dinga lom chansah inlang, mona neiloupa chu lhadoh jeng in.
24 If thy people Israel be overcome by their enemies, (for they will sin against thee, ) and being converted shall do penance, and call upon thy name, and pray to thee in this place,
Namite Israelte chun nangma dounaa achonset jeh uva, gal aleluva achonset nau akona ahung kiheikit uva; chule nangma angsunga ahung kineosah uva, nangma nahin koukituva ahungtao kit ule;
25 Then hear thou from heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back into the land, which thou gavest to them, and their fathers.
Vanna konin hin ngaiyin lang, nami Israelte chonsetna chu hin ngaidam in, chule amaho le apu apateu napehsa gam chu lepeh kit tan.
26 If the heavens be shut up, and there fall no rain by reason of the sins of the people, and they shall pray to thee in this place, and confess to thy name, and be converted from their sins, when thou dost afflict them,
Namite chu nangma dounaa achonset jeh uva vankot akikhaa gotwi ajuh louva chule achonset jeh uva nabol gim teng le, iham tia a chonset nauva konna ahung kinung heikit uva nangma min pan’a hiche Houin lam ngatna ahung tao tengule,
27 Then hear thou from heaven, O Lord, and forgive the sins of thy servants and of thy people Israel, and teach them the good way, in which they may walk: and give rain to thy land which thou hast given to thy people to possess.
vanna konin hin ngaiyin lang nalhachate nami Israelte chonsetna chu ngaidam in, lamdih ajot thei nadiuvin hil inlang, chule nangman namite chan dinga napehsa gamma chun gotwi chu juhsah kittan.
28 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence or blasting, or mildew, or locusts, or caterpillars: or if their enemies waste the country, and besiege the cities, whatsoever scourge or infirmity shall be upon them:
Iham tia gamsunga kel alhah’a pul alanna, muchi-chivo ho chunga natna achuh a, namite chu galmiten gamsunga ahindel khum uva; akhopihou ahin umkimvel uva amat gotuva chule itobang vangsetna le natpi umjongle,
29 Then if any of thy people Israel, knowing his own scourge and infirmity shall pray, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,
nami Israel techun hitobang genthei hahsatna chunga hi akhut ajah uva, Houin lang ngatna ahung tao ule,
30 Hear thou from heaven, from thy high dwelling place, and forgive, and render to every one according to his ways, which thou knowest him to have in his heart: (for thou only knowest the hearts of the children of men: )
Van naumnaa konin hin ngaiyin lang ngaidam in, namite chu athilbol aumchan toh kilomin bolpeh in, ajeh chu nangbouseh in mihem khatcheh lungsung hi nahet ahi.
31 That they may fear thee, and walk in thy ways all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.
Chutileh nangman apu-apateu nana pehsa gamsunga achen laiseuva, nangma hi nagin jing diu nangma lampi chu ajot jing diu ahi.
32 If the stranger also, who is not of thy people Israel, come from a far country, for the sake of thy great name, and thy strong hand, and thy stretched out arm, and adore in this place:
Khonung tengle gampam miho nami Israel hilou ho chun, nangma hina chu ahinjah doh uva nagin diu ahi. Ama hochun naloupina, nathahatna le naban thahat thilbol theina ho chu ahin jahdohuva, gamlatah gamho akonna hungdiu ahi. Chutengle amaho chun hiche Houin lang ngatna ahungtao tengule,
33 Hear thou from heaven thy firm dwelling place, and do all that which that stranger shall call upon thee for: that all the people of the earth may know thy name, and may fear thee, as thy people Israel, and may know, that thy name is invoked upon this house, which I have built.
vana naumna mun akon in ataonau hin ngaipeh inlang, athil thum uchu hinsan pehtan; hitia chu nami Israelte banga chu leiset mihem te jousen nangma hi nahin hetdoh diu ahi. Amaho jong chun hiche Houin hi nangma min kijabolna dinga kisadoh ahichu ahin hetdoh diu ahi.
34 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by the way that thou shalt send them, and adore thee towards the way of this city, which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:
Namite chu galsat dinga nasol dohnauva kona chu nangman nadeilhen khopi lam ngatna, chule nangma min kijabolna dinga kasadoh Houin lam ngatna ahungtao teng ule,
35 Then hear thou from heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and revenge them.
vana konin hin ngaipeh inlang, athum pen uchu hin kithopi tan.
36 And if they sin against thee (for there is no man that sinneth not) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them up to their enemies, and they lead them away captive to a land either afar off, or near at hand,
Aitih’a chonse ngailou nangma dounaa achonset tengule, nangman amaho chunga nalung hanna; chutengle amaho chu agalmiten jou uvintin, gampam mi anai hijongle agamla hijongle sohchangin kaimang tauhen.
37 And if they be converted in their heart in the land to which they were led captive, and do penance, and pray to thee in the land of their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done wickedly, we have dealt unjustly:
Ahinlah chuche asohchan nau gam achun kisih tah in hung kinung hei kit uhenlang, tao uhenlang eiho ichonse tauve, thilse iboltauve atiuva,
38 And return to thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their captivity, to which they were led away, and adore thee towards the way of their own land which thou gavest their fathers, and of the city, which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:
asoh channau gamma chu alungthim pumpiu le alhagao pumpia ahung kinung heikit uva, apu apateu nana pehsa gam lam ngatna chule nangman nalhentum khopi lam ahin ngat uva, namin jabolna'a kisadoh Houin lam nga-a ahungtao tengule,
39 Then hear thou from heaven, that is, from thy firm dwelling place, their prayers, and do judgment, and forgive thy people, although they have sinned:
van na umna munna konin ataonau le athumnao hin ngaipeh inlang, athum lo na pen bang uchun hin panpi tan.
40 For thou art my God: let thy eyes, I beseech thee, be open, and let thy ears be attentive to the prayer, that is made in this place.
O Pathen hiche lai munna konna taona hung kimang jouse hi hin venlang, na nakol hin sung tem in.
41 Now therefore arise, O Lord God, into thy resting place, thou and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O Lord God, put on salvation, and thy saints rejoice in good things.
Chule vo Pakai, Pathen hung kithoudoh inlang nakichol nading mun nathahatni mel thingkonga hin hunglut temin, vo Pakai Pathen na thempuho chun sochat na ponsil kisil uhen; thudih’a chonna chate chu nangma phatna jallin kipah thanom uhen.
42 O Lord God, turn not away the face of thy anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant.
Vo Pakai, Pathen thao nanusa Lengpa chu nodoh dan, nalhacha David long louva nalungsetna chu hin geldoh jing jeng in.
