< 2 Chronicles 7 >

1 And when Salomon had made an ende of praying, fire came downe from heauen, and consumed the burnt offring and the sacrifices: and the glory of the Lord filled the house,
Esi Solomo wu gbedodoɖa nu la, dzo ge tso dziƒo, fia numevɔsa kple vɔsa la eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.
2 So that the Priestes could not euter into the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lordes house.
Nunɔlaawo mete ŋu ge ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me o elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔe fũu.
3 And when all the children of Israel saw the fire, and the glory of the Lord come downe vpon the house, they bowed themselues with their faces to the earth vpon the pauement, and worshipped and praysed the Lord, saying, For he is good, because his mercy lasteth for euer.
Israel blibo la kpɔ nu sia teƒe eye wotsyɔ mo anyi, kafu Yehowa eye woda akpe nɛ hedo ɣli bena, “Eƒe dɔme nyo eye eƒe amenuveve li tegbee!”
4 Then the King and all the people offred sacrifices before the Lord.
Fia la kple ameawo katã sa vɔwo le Yehowa ŋkume
5 And King Salomon offered a sacrifice of two and twentie thousand bullockes, and an hundreth and twentie thousand sheepe. so the King and all the people dedicated the house of God.
eye Fia Solomo sa vɔ kple nyi akpe blaeve-vɔ-eve kple ale kple gbɔ̃ akpe alafa ɖeka blaeve. Ale fia la kple ameawo katã kɔ Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu.
6 And the Priests waited on their offices, and the Leuites with the instruments of musicke of the Lord, which King Dauid had made to praise the Lord, Because his mercy lasteth for euer: whe Dauid praysed God by them, the Priestes also blewe trumpets ouer against them: and all they of Israel stoode by.
Nunɔlawo nɔ tsitre ɖe woƒe dɔwɔƒewo le esime Levitɔwo nɔ woƒe akpedahawo dzim be, “Eƒe amenuveve li tegbee” kpe ɖe haƒonu siwo Fia David ŋutɔ wɔ eye wòna wowɔa wo ŋu dɔ hena Yehowa kafukafu ŋuti. Esi nunɔlaawo ku kpẽawo la, Israel ƒe ameha blibo la tsi tsitre.
7 Moreouer Salomon halowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there hee had prepared burnt offerings, and the fatte of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Salomon had made, was not able to receiue the burnt offering, and the meate offring, and the fat.
Solomo kɔ xɔxɔnu emetɔ si le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ŋgɔ la ŋuti eye le afi ma wòsa numevɔ, nuɖuvɔ kple akpedavɔ ƒe amiwo le elabena akɔblivɔsamlekpui si wòwɔ la le sue akpa na numevɔ, nuɖuvɔ kple amiawo.
8 And Salomon made a feast at that time of seuen dayes, and all Israel with him, a very great Congregation, from the entring in of Hamath, vnto the riuer of Egypt.
Azɔ la, Solomo ɖu ŋkekenyui le ɣe ma ɣi me eye Israel katã ɖui kplii. Ameha gã aɖe ŋutɔe wònye, ameawo tso Lebo Hamat va se ɖe Egipte tɔʋu la gbɔ ke.
9 And in the eight day they made a solemne assemblie: for they had made the dedication of the altar seuen daies, and the feast seuen dayes.
Wode ŋkekenyui sia ƒe akpedasɔleme mamlɛtɔ le ŋkeke enyia gbe.
10 And the three and twentieth day of the seuenth moneth, he sent the people away into their tentes, ioyous and with glad heart, because of the goodnesse that the Lord had done for Dauid and for Salomon, and for Israel his people.
Fia Solomo ɖo ameawo ɖe aƒe le ɣleti adrelia ƒe ŋkeke blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃lia gbe. Ameawo kpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔ le ale si Yehowa ve David kple Solomo kpakple eƒe dukɔ, Israel nu la ta.
11 So Salomon finished the house of the Lord, and the Kings house, and all that came into Salomons heart to make in the house of the Lord: and he prospered in his house.
Esi Solomo wu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ kple fiasã la tutu kple nu siwo katã wòɖo ɖe ta me be yeawɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me kple eya ŋutɔ ƒe fiasã me nu la,
12 And the Lord appeared to Salomon by night and said to him, I haue heard thy prayer, and haue chosen this place for my selfe to be an house of sacrifice.
Yehowa ɖe eɖokui fiae le zã me eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Mese wò gbedodoɖa eye metia teƒe sia na ɖokuinye be wòanye gbedoxɔ na vɔsawo.
13 If I shut the heauen that there be no raine, or if I commaund the grashopper to deuoure the lande, or if I sende pestilence among my people,
“Ne metu dziƒowo nu ale be tsi megale dzadzam o alo meɖe gbe na ʋetsuviwo be woaɖu nu siwo le anyigba dzi alo medɔ dɔvɔ̃ ɖe dukɔ la dome la,
14 If my people, among whome my Name is called vpon, doe humble them selues, and praye, and seeke my presence, and turne from their wicked wayes, then will I heare in heauen, and be mercifull to their sinne, and wil heale their land:
ekema ne nye dukɔ, ame siwo ŋuti woyɔ nye ŋkɔ ɖo abɔbɔ wo ɖokui, ado gbe ɖa, adi nye ŋkume eye woaɖe asi le woƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo ŋu la, mase woƒe gbedodoɖa le dziƒo, matsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo eye mayɔ dɔ woƒe anyigba.
15 Then mine eies shalbe open and mine eares attent vnto the prayer made in this place.
Azɔ la, nye ŋkuwo anɔ ʋuʋu eye nye towo anɔ te ɖe gbe ɖe sia ɖe si woado ɖa le teƒe sia ŋuti.
16 For I haue nowe chosen and sanctified this house, that my Name may be there for euer: and mine eyes and mine heart shalbe there perpetually.
Metia eye mekɔ gbedoxɔ sia ŋuti ale be nye ŋkɔ anɔ afi ma tegbetegbee. Nye ŋkuwo kple nye dzi anɔ afi ma ɣe sia ɣi.
17 And if thou wilt walke before me, as Dauid thy father walked, to doe according vnto all that I haue commanded thee, and shalt obserue my statutes and my iudgements,
“Ke wò la, ne àzɔ le ŋkunye me, aɖi anukware abe fofowò, David ene eye nàwɔ nye seawo dzi, alé nye ɖoɖowo kple kɔnuwo me ɖe asi la,
18 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdome, according as I made the couenant with Dauid thy father, saying, Thou shalt not want a man to be ruler in Israel.
ekema makpɔ egbɔ be, wò fiaɖuƒe nali ke abe ale si medo ŋugbe na fofowò David ene hegblɔ nɛ be, ‘Wò ame siwo aɖu fia ɖe Israel dzi la matso o.’
19 But if ye turne away, and forsake my statutes and my commandements which I haue set before you, and shall goe and serue other gods, and worshippe them,
“Ke ne mènɔ yonyeme o, ne ègbe se siwo mena mi dzi la wɔwɔ eye miesubɔ mawu bubuwo hede ta agu na wo la,
20 Then will I plucke them vp out of my lande, which I haue giuen them, and this house which I haue sanctified for my Name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a prouerbe and a common talke among all people.
mate nye amewo le nye anyigba si metsɔ na wo la dzi eye maɖe gbedoxɔ sia togbɔ be mekɔ eŋuti na ɖokuinye hã. Mana wòazu hamelo kple alɔmeɖenu le dukɔwo katã dome.
21 And this house which is most hie, shall be an astonishment to euery one that passeth by it, so that he shall say, Why hath the Lord done thus to this lande, and to this house?
Gbedoxɔ sia azu xɔ gbagbã si ƒe xɔtunuwo woali kɔe ɖi eye ame sia ame si ava tso eme yina la ƒe nu aku, eye wòabia be, ‘Nu ka ta Yehowa wɔ nu siawo ɖe anyigba sia kple gbedoxɔ sia ŋu?’
22 And they shall answere, Because they forsooke the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them out of the lande of Egypt, and haue taken holde on other gods, and haue worshipped them, and serued them, therefore hath he brought all this euill vpon them.
Woaɖo eŋu be, ‘Elabena ameawo ɖe asi le Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ wo do goe le Egiptenyigba dzi la ŋu eye wosubɔ mawu bubuwo eya tae wòhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia va wo dzi ɖo!’”
