2 Chronicles 7
1 When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and burned up the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the Temple.
Torej ko je Salomon molitvi naredil konec, je z neba prišel ogenj in použil žgalno daritev in klavne daritve in Gospodova slava je napolnila hišo.
2 The priests couldn't enter the Temple of the Lord because the Lord's glory filled the Lord's Temple.
Duhovniki niso mogli vstopiti v Gospodovo hišo, ker je Gospodova slava napolnila Gospodovo hišo.
3 When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the Lord in the Temple, they knelt down and bowed their faces to the ground. They worshiped and praised the Lord, saying, “He is good! His trustworthy love lasts forever!”
Ko so vsi Izraelovi otroci videli, kako je ogenj prišel dol in Gospodova slava na hišo, so se s svojimi obrazi priklonili do tal na tlak in oboževali ter hvalili Gospoda, rekoč: »Ker je dober, kajti njegovo usmiljenje traja večno.«
4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices to the Lord.
Potem so kralj in vse ljudstvo darovali klavne daritve pred Gospodom.
5 King Solomon offered a sacrifice of 22,000 cattle and 120,000 sheep. In this way the king and all the people dedicated the Temple of God.
Kralj Salomon je daroval klavno daritev dvaindvajsetih tisočev volov in sto dvanajst tisočev ovc. Tako sta kralj in vse ljudstvo posvetila Božjo hišo.
6 The priests stood at their posts, and the Levites too, with the musical instruments that King David had made for giving praise, and which David had used for praise. They sang, “For his trustworthy love lasts forever!” Opposite them the priests blew trumpets, and all the Israelites stood up.
Duhovniki so čakali na svoje službe. Tudi Lévijevci z Gospodovimi glasbenimi instrumenti. Izdelal jih je kralj David, da hvali Gospoda, kajti njegovo usmiljenje traja večno. Ko je David hvalil ob njihovem služenju in so duhovniki pred njimi trobili s trobentami, je ves Izrael stal.
7 After that Solomon dedicated the middle of the courtyard in front of the Temple of the Lord. There he presented burnt offerings and the fat of the friendship offerings, since the bronze altar he had made couldn't hold all the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the offerings.
Poleg tega je Salomon posvetil sredino dvora, ki je bil pred Gospodovo hišo, kajti tam je daroval žgalne daritve in tolščo mirovnih daritev, ker bronast oltar, ki ga je Salomon naredil, ni zmogel sprejeti žgalnih daritev, jedilnih daritev in tolšče.
8 Then over the next seven days Solomon observed the feast with all of Israel, a huge gathering that came from Lebo-hamath to the Wadi of Egypt.
Prav tako je ob tem času Salomon praznik praznoval sedem dni in ves Izrael z njim, zelo velik shod, od vstopa v Hamát do egiptovske reke.
9 On the eighth day they held a final assembly, for the dedication of the altar had lasted seven days, and the feast another seven days.
Na osmi dan so naredili slovesen zbor, kajti sedem dni so praznovali posvetitev oltarja in sedem dni so praznovali.
10 On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, Solomon sent the people home. They were still celebrating and really happy for the goodness that the Lord had shown to David, for Solomon, and for his people Israel.
Na triindvajseti dan sedmega meseca je ljudstvo poslal proč, v njihove šotore, vesele in razigrane v srcu, zaradi dobrote, ki jo je Gospod pokazal Davidu, Salomonu in njegovemu ljudstvu Izraelu.
11 After Solomon had finished the Temple of the Lord and the royal palace, having successfully accomplished everything he'd wanted to do for the Temple of the Lord and for his own palace,
Tako je Salomon končal Gospodovo hišo in kraljevo hišo in vse, kar je prišlo v Salomonovo srce, da naredi v Gospodovi hiši in v svoji lastni hiši, je uspešno izvršil.
12 the Lord appeared to him at night and told him: “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for myself as a Temple of sacrifice.
Gospod se je Salomonu prikazal ponoči in mu rekel: »Slišal sem tvojo molitev in ta kraj sem izbral zase, za hišo klavne daritve.
13 If I were to close shut the sky so there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send a plague among my people,
Če zaprem nebo, da ne bo dežja ali če zapovem kobilicam, da požrejo deželo ali če med svoje ljudstvo pošljem kužno bolezen,
14 and if my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and return to me, and turn away from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their land.
če se bo moje ljudstvo, ki je imenovano po mojem imenu, ponižalo, molilo, iskalo moj obraz in se odvrnilo od svojih zlobnih poti, takrat bom prisluhnil iz nebes, odpustil njihov greh in ozdravil njihovo deželo.
15 Now my eyes will be open, and my ears will pay attention to the prayers offered in this place,
Sedaj bodo moje oči odprte in moja ušesa pozorna na molitev, ki je narejena na tem kraju.
16 for I have chosen and consecrated this Temple so that I may be honored there forever. I will always watch over it and take care of it for it really matters to me.
Kajti sedaj sem izbral in posvetil to hišo, da bo moje ime lahko tam na veke. Moje oči in moje srce bodo neprestano tam.
17 As for you, if you follow my ways as your father David did, doing everything I've told you to do, and if you keep my laws and regulations,
Kar se tiče tebe, če hočeš hoditi pred menoj, kakor je hodil tvoj oče David in storiti glede na vse, kar sem ti zapovedal in boš obeleževal moje zakone in moje sodbe,
18 then I will make sure your reign is secure. I made this agreement with your father David, telling him, ‘You will always have a descendant to rule over Israel.’
tedaj bom utrdil prestol tvojega kraljestva, glede na to, kakor sem se zavezal s tvojim očetom Davidom, rekoč: ›Ne bo ti manjkal mož, da bi bil vladar v Izraelu.‹
19 But if you turn away and ignore the laws and the commandments I have given you, and if you go and serve and worship other gods,
Toda če se odvrnete in zapustite moje zakone in moje zapovedi, ki sem jih postavil pred vas in boste šli ter služili drugim bogovom in jih oboževali,
20 then I will pull you up from the land I gave you. I will banish from my presence this Temple I have dedicated to my honor, and I will make it an object lesson of ridicule among the nations.
potem jih bom s koreninami izpulil iz svoje dežele, ki sem jim jo dal in to hišo, ki sem jo posvetil za svoje ime, bom vrgel iz svojega pogleda in jo naredil, da bo pregovor in tarča posmeha med vsemi narodi.
21 This Temple that now is so respected will become so spoiled that passers-by will say, ‘Why has the Lord acted in such a way to this land and this Temple?’
Ta hiša, ki je visoka, bo osuplost vsakemu, ki gre mimo nje, tako da bo rekel: ›Zakaj je Gospod tako storil tej deželi in tej hiši?‹
22 The answer will come, ‘Because they abandoned the Lord, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of Egypt, and have clung to other gods, worshiping them and serving them. That's why the Lord has brought all this trouble upon them.’”
To bo odgovor: ›Ker so zapustili Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov, ki jih je privedel ven iz egiptovske dežele in se prijeli drugih bogov, jih oboževali in jim služili. Zato je nanje privedel vse to zlo.‹
