2 Chronicles 6
1 Then Salomon sayd, The Lord hath sayde that he would dwell in the darke cloude:
Ningĩ Solomoni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova oigĩte atĩ arĩikaraga thĩinĩ wa itu rĩrĩa itumanu.
2 And I haue built thee an house to dwell in, an habitation for thee to dwell in for euer.
No rĩrĩ, nĩngwakĩire hekarũ kĩĩrorerwa, handũ haku ha gũtũũra nginya tene.”
3 And the King turned his face, and blessed all the Congregation of Israel (for all the Congregation of Israel stoode there)
O hĩndĩ ĩyo, kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli kĩrũgamĩte hau, mũthamaki agĩkĩhũgũkĩra na agĩkĩrathima.
4 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who spake with his mouth vnto Dauid my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,
Ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ: “Jehova arogoocwo, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa ũhingĩtie na moko make ũrĩa erĩire baba Daudi na kanua gake mwene. Nĩgũkorwo oigĩte atĩrĩ,
5 Since the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no citie of al the tribes of Israel to buylde an house, that my Name might be there, neyther chose I any man to be a ruler ouer my people Israel:
‘Kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarutire andũ akwa Misiri, ndirĩ ndathuura itũũra inene mũhĩrĩga-inĩ o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli atĩ nĩguo njakĩrwo hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa kuo, o na kana ngaathuura mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ atuĩke wa gũtongoria andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
6 But I haue chosen Ierusalem, that my Name might be there, and haue chosen Dauid to be ouer my people Israel.
No rĩrĩ, nĩthuurĩte Jerusalemu nĩguo Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩikarage kuo, na nĩ thuurĩte Daudi athamakĩre andũ akwa a Isiraeli.’
7 And it was in the heart of Dauid my father to builde an house vnto the Name of the Lord God of Israel,
“Baba Daudi nĩatuĩte na ngoro yake gwaka hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli.
8 But the Lord sayde to Dauid my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to buylde an house vnto my Name, thou diddest well, that thou wast so minded.
No Jehova eerire baba Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Tondũ nĩwaatuĩte na ngoro yaku kũnjakĩra hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa-rĩ, nĩ wekire wega nĩ gwĩciiria ũguo ngoro-inĩ yaku.
9 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house, but thy sonne which shall come out of thy loynes, he shall buylde an house vnto my Name.
No rĩrĩ, wee tiwe ũgwaka hekarũ ĩyo, no nĩ mũrũguo ũrĩa uumĩte mũthiimo waku na thakame-inĩ yaku, ũcio nĩwe ũkaanjakĩra hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.’
10 And the Lord hath performed his worde that he spake: and I am risen vp in the roume of Dauid my father, and am set on the throne of Israel as the Lord promised, and haue built an house to the Name of the Lord God of Israel.
“Jehova nĩatũũrĩtie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa eeranĩire. Nĩnjookete ithenya rĩa baba Daudi, na rĩu nĩnjikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩa ũthamaki gĩa Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eeranĩire, na nĩnjakĩte hekarũ ĩrĩa ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
11 And I haue set the Arke there, wherein is the couenant of the Lord, that he made with the children of Israel.
Hau nĩho njigĩte ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩrĩa rĩigĩtwo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire na andũ a Isiraeli.”
12 And the King stoode before the altar of the Lord, in the presence of all the Congregation of Israel, and stretched out his hands,
Ningĩ Solomoni akĩrũgama mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova o hau mbere ya kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli, agĩtambũrũkia moko make.
13 (For Salomon had made a brasen skaffold and set it in the middes of the court, of fiue cubites long, and fiue cubites broade, and three cubites of height, and vpon it he stoode, and kneeled downe vpon his knees before all the Congregation of Israel, and stretched out his hands toward heauen)
Na rĩrĩ, Solomoni nĩathondekete rũtara rwa gĩcango rwa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha, na mĩkono ĩtano kwarama, na mĩkono ĩtatũ kũraiha na igũrũ, na akĩrũiga gatagatĩ ka nja ĩyo. Akĩrũgama rũtara-inĩ igũrũ na agĩturia maru mbere ya kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli na akĩambararia moko make na igũrũ.
14 And sayd, O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heauen nor in earth, which keepest couenant, and mercie vnto thy seruants, that walke before thee with all their heart.
Nake akiuga atĩrĩ: “Wee Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ ũhaana tawe, kũu igũrũ kana gũkũ thĩ, o Wee ũhingagia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku kĩa wendo harĩ ndungata ciaku iria irũmagĩrĩra njĩra yaku na ngoro ciao ciothe.
15 Thou that hast kept with thy seruant Dauid my father, that thou hast promised him: for thou spakest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as appeareth this day.
Wee nĩũhingĩirie baba Daudi, ndungata yaku, kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku; ũndũ ũrĩa weranĩire na kanua gaku nĩũhingĩtie na guoko gwaku, o ta ũrĩa kũhaana ũmũthĩ.
16 Therefore now Lord God of Israel, keepe with thy seruant Dauid my father, that thou hast promised him, saying, Thou shalt not want a man in my sight, that shall sit vpon the throne of Israel: so that thy sonnes take heede to their wayes, to walke in my Lawe, as thou hast walked before me.
“Na rĩrĩ, Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, hingĩria ndungata yaku baba, Daudi, ciĩranĩro iria wamwĩrĩire rĩrĩa woigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ndũkaaga mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gĩa Isiraeli arĩ mbere yakwa, angĩkorwo ariũ aku nĩmarĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre yagĩrĩire mbere yakwa kũringana na watho wakwa o ta ũrĩa wee ũtũire ũthiiaga.’
17 And now, O Lord God of Israel, let thy worde be verified, which thou spakest vnto thy seruant Dauid.
Na rĩrĩ, Wee Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, reke kiugo gĩaku kĩrĩa werĩire ndungata yaku Daudi kĩhinge.
18 (Is it true in deede that God will dwell with man on earth? beholde, the heauens, and the heauens of heauens are not able to conteine thee: how much more vnable is this house, which I haue buylt?)
“No kũhoteke Ngai agĩtũũranie na andũ gũkũ thĩ? Igũrũ, o na kũũrĩa igũrũ mũno-rĩ, wee ndũngĩiganĩra kuo. Hekarũ ĩno njakĩte-rĩ, ndĩkĩrĩ nini makĩria?
19 But haue thou respect to the prayer of thy seruant, and to his supplication, O Lord my God, to heare the crye and prayer which thy seruant prayeth before thee,
No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, thikĩrĩria ihooya rĩa ndungata yaku, ĩgĩthaithana ĩiguĩrwo tha, Wee Jehova Ngai wakwa. Igua gũkaya na ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrakũhooya ĩrĩ mbere yaku.
20 That thine eyes may be open toward this house day and night, euen toward the place, whereof thou hast sayde, that thou wouldest put thy Name there, that thou mayest hearken vnto the prayer, which thy seruant prayeth in this place.
Maitho maku maroikara marorete hekarũ ĩno mũthenya na ũtukũ, o handũ haha wee woigire atĩ nĩũgatũma Rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩkoragwo ho. Ũroigua ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrĩhooyaga ĩrorete handũ haha.
21 Heare thou therefore the supplication of thy seruant, and of thy people Israel, which they pray in this place: and heare thou in the place of thine habitation, euen in heauen, and when thou hearest, be mercifull.
Igua gũthaithana kwa ndungata yaku na kwa andũ aku a Isiraeli rĩrĩa mekũhooya marorete handũ haha. Ũigue ũrĩ kũu igũrũ, o kũu gĩikaro gĩaku; na watũigua-rĩ, ũgatũrekera.
22 When a man shall sinne against his neighbour, and he laye vpon him an othe to cause him to sweare, and the swearer shall come before thine altar in this house,
“Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩhĩtĩria mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake na gũtuĩke no nginya ehĩte, nake oke ehĩtĩre hau mbere ya kĩgongona gĩaku kĩa hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
23 Then heare thou in heauen, and doe, and iudge thy seruants, in recompensing the wicked to bring his way vpon his head, and in iustifying the righteous, to giue him according to his righteousnes.
hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, na ũtue itua. Tuithania ndungata ciaku ciira, ũtũme ũrĩa ũhĩtĩirie ũrĩa ũngĩ acookererwo nĩ mahĩtia make marĩa ekĩte. Nake ũrĩa ũtehĩtie ũmũtue ndehĩtie na ũndũ ũcio wonanie atĩ ti mwĩhia.
24 And when thy people Israel shalbe ouerthrowen before the enemie, because they haue sinned against thee, and turne againe, and confesse thy Name, and pray, and make supplication before thee in this house,
“Rĩrĩa andũ aku a Isiraeli maahootwo nĩ thũ tondũ nĩmakũhĩtĩirie nao magũcookerere na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku, mahooe magĩgũthaithaga marĩ hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
25 Then heare thou in heauen, and be mercifull vnto the sinne of thy people Israel, and bring them againe vnto the land which thou gauest to them and to their fathers.
hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ na ũrekere andũ aku a Isiraeli mehia mao na ũmacookie bũrũri ũrĩa wamaheire hamwe na maithe mao.
26 When heauen shall be shut vp, and there shalbe no rayne, because they haue sinned against thee, and shall pray in this place, and confesse thy Name, and turne from their sinne, when thou doest afflict them,
“Rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩkaahingwo, na mbura yaage kuura tondũ wa ũrĩa andũ aku makũhĩtĩirie, mangĩkaahooya marorete handũ haha, na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku na magarũrũke matigane na mehia mao tondũ nĩũmanyamarĩtie-rĩ,
27 Then heare thou in heauen, and pardon the sinne of thy seruants, and of thy people Israel (when thou hast taught them the good way wherein they may walke) and giue rayne vpon thy lande, which thou hast giuen vnto thy people for an inheritance.
hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ na ũrekere ndungata ciaku, andũ aku a Isiraeli, mehia mao. Marute mũtũũrĩre ũrĩa mwagĩrĩru, na ũmoirĩrie mbura bũrũri-inĩ ũcio waheire andũ aku ũtuĩke igai rĩao.
28 When there shalbe famine in the land, when there shalbe pestilence, blasting, or mildew, when there shall be grashopper, or caterpiller, when their enemie shall besiege them in the cities of their land, or any plague or any sickenesse,
“Kũngĩkaagĩa ngʼaragu kana mũthiro bũrũri-inĩ, kana mĩgũnda ĩhĩe nĩ mbaa kana mbuu, kana gũũke ngigĩ kana ngũnga, kana thũ imarigiicĩrie itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe rĩao, na mwanangĩko o na ũrĩkũ kana mũrimũ ũngĩgooka-rĩ,
29 Then what prayer and supplication so euer shalbe made of any man, or of all thy people Israel, whe euery one shall knowe his owne plague, and his owne disease, and shall stretch forth his hands toward this house,
na rĩrĩa mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa andũ aku a Isiraeli, angĩkaahooya kana athaithane, nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ kũmenya mĩnyamaro ĩrĩa arĩ nayo, o na ruo, na atambũrũkie moko make amerekeirie hekarũ-inĩ ĩno,
30 Heare thou then in heauen, thy dwelling place, and be merciful, and giue euery man according vnto all his wayes, as thou doest knowe his heart (for thou onely knowest the hearts of the children of men)
hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ gĩikaro-inĩ gĩaku, ũmarekere na ũtuĩre o mũndũ itua kũringana na ũrĩa wothe ekĩte, tondũ we nĩũĩ ngoro yake nĩgũkorwo nowe wiki ũũĩ ngoro cia andũ,
31 That they may feare thee, and walke in thy wayes as long as they liue in the land which thou gauest vnto our fathers.

32 Moreouer, as touching ye stranger which is not of thy people Israel, who shall come out of a farre countrey for thy great Names sake, and thy mighty hande, and thy stretched out arme: when they shall come and pray in this house,
“Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ wa kũngĩ ũrĩa ũtarĩ wa andũ aku a Isiraeli no nĩ oimĩte bũrũri wa kũraya nĩ ũndũ wa ngumo ya rĩĩtwa rĩaku inene na ũhoro wa ciĩko cia guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya gũtambũrũkĩtio, rĩrĩa agooka ahooe erekeire hekarũ ĩno,
33 Heare thou in heauen thy dwelling place, and doe according to all that the stranger calleth for vnto thee, that all the people of the earth may knowe thy Name, and feare thee like thy people Israel, and that they may knowe, that thy Name is called vpon in this house which I haue built.

34 When thy people shall goe out to battell against their enemies, by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray to thee, in the way towarde this citie, which thou hast chosen, euen toward the house which I haue built to thy Name,
“Rĩrĩa andũ aku maathiĩ mbaara-inĩ kũrũa na thũ ciao o kũrĩa ũngĩmatũma, nao makũhooe merekeire itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene ũthuurĩte na hekarũ ĩno njakĩte ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku,
