1 Kings 8
1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.
BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng te Zion David khopuei lamloh Jerusalem kah manghai Solomon taengla khuen ham Solomon loh Israel a ham rhoek, koca rhoek kah a lu boeih, Israel ca rhoek kah a napa rhoek kah khoboei rhoek, koca kah a lu boeih te a tingtun sak.
2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
Te dongah Israel hlang boeih te manghai Solomon taengla Ethanim hla, a hla rhih dongkah khotue vaengah tingtun uh.
3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
Israel kah a ham rhoek boeih a pawk uh neh khosoih rhoek loh thingkawng te a koh uh.
4 And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring up.
BOEIPA kah thingkawng te a khuen uh tih tingtunnah dap neh dap kah hmuencim hnopai boeih te Levi khosoih rhoek loh a khuen uh.
5 And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
Manghai Solomon neh thingkawng hmai ah anih taengla amah neh aka tuentah uh Israel rhaengpuei boeih loh a khawk la boiva neh saelhung a nawn uh te daek uh lek pawt tih tae uh lek pawh.
6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubims.
Te vaengah khosoih rhoek loh BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng te im khui kah cangimphu khuikah amah hmuen la a khuen uh. Te te cherubim phae hmui kah hmuencim kah hmuencim la a khueh.
7 For the cherubims spread forth their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
Cherubim loh thingkawng hmuen te phae a phuel thil tih cherubim loh thingkawng so neh a so kah a cung soah a khuk.
8 And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy place before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day.
A cung te a hlawt van dongah a cung hmoi te cangimphu hmai kah hmuencim lamloh tueng. Tedae poeng lamloh tueng pawt cakhaw tahae khohnin duela om.
9 There was nothing in the ark save 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.
Thingkawng khuiah Horeb ah Moses loh a khueh lungto cabael rhoi phoeiah a tloe om pawh. Egypt kho lamloh a coe uh phoeiah teah ni BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek taengah paipi a saii.
10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,
Hmuencim lamloh khosoih rhoek a khoe uh vaengah tah BOEIPA im te cingmai loh a khuk.
11 So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.
BOEIPA im te BOEIPA kah thangpomnah a bae dongah khosoih rhoek khaw cingmai hmai ah thohtat ham pai uh thai pawh.
12 Then spoke Solomon, The LORD said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Te vaengah Solomon loh, “BOEIPA loh yinnah khuiah khosak ham a thui coeng.
13 I have surely built you an house to dwell in, a settled place for you to abide in for ever.
Namah loh kumhal due kho na sak nah ham hmuen la na imhmuen kah im a sak khaw ka sak coeng,” a ti.
14 And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: (and all the congregation of Israel stood; )
Te phoeiah manghai loh a maelhmai te a hooi tih Israel hlangping boeih te yoethen a paek vaengah Israel hlangping boeih khaw pai uh.
15 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which spoke with his mouth unto David my father, and has with his hand fulfilled it, saying,
Te vaengah, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA tah a yoethen pai. A ka neh a pa David taengah a thui tih a kut neh a soep sak.
16 Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build an house, that my name might be therein; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.
'Ka pilnam Israel te Egypt lamkah ka khuen khohnin lamloh ka ming om sak ham neh im thoh sak ham Israel koca boeih khuikah khopuei te ka coelh moenih. Tedae David te ka pilnam Israel soah om sak ham ka coelh,’ a ti.
17 And it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
Israel Pathen BOEIPA ming la im sak ham hea pa David kah thinko ah om coeng.
18 And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in your heart to build an house unto my name, you did well that it was in your heart.
Tedae BOEIPA loh a pa David te, 'Kai ming la im sak ham na thinko ah a om bangla na thinko ah a om ham khaw then.
19 Nevertheless you shall not build the house; but your son that shall come forth out of your loins, he shall build the house unto my name.
Tedae nang loh im na thoh pawt vetih na pumpu lamkah aka thoeng na capa lat long nikai ming ham im a thoh eh?,’ a ti nah.
20 And the LORD has performed his word that he spoke, and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
BOEIPA loh a thui ol te a cak sak dongah a pa David phoeiah a thoh. Te dongah ni BOEIPA kah a thui bangla Israel kah ngolkhoel dongah ka ngol tih Israel Pathen BOEIPA ming la im ka sak.
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 he brought them out of the land of Egypt.
Te phoeiah Egypt kho lamloh amih a khuen vaengah a pa rhoek taengah a saii BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng ham hmuen pahoi ka khueh,’ a ti.
22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven:
Te vaengah Solomon te Israel hlangping pum hmai kah BOEIPA hmueihtuk hmai ah pai tih a kut te vaan la a phuel.
23 And he said, LORD God of Israel, there is no God like you, in heaven above, or on earth beneath, who keep covenant and mercy with your servants that walk before you with all their heart:
Te phoeiah, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA aw, namah bang Pathen a so kah vaan ah khaw, a dang kah diklai ah khaw a om moenih. Na mikhmuh ah a lungbuei boeih neh aka pongpa na sal rhoek taengah paipi neh sitlohnah na ngaithuen coeng.
24 Who have kept with your servant David my father that you promised him: you spoke also with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is this day.
A pa David amah taengah na thui te na sal taengah na ngaithuen. Na ka neh na thui tih tahae khohnin kah bangla na kut neh na soep sak.
25 Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that you promised him, saying, There shall not fail you a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; so that your children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as you have walked before me.
Te dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA aw, a pa David amah taengah na thui te na sal ham khaw ngaithuen dae. 'Ka mikhmuh ah na pongpa bangla, ka mikhmuh ah pongpa ham na ca rhoek loh a longpuei te dawk a ngaithuen uh atah ka mikhmuh kah Israel ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol hamnang kah hlang pat mahpawh,’ na ti.
26 And now, O God of Israel, let your word, I pray you, be verified, which you spoke unto your servant David my father.
Te dongah Israel Pathen aw, na ol te na ol bangla, tangnah mai laeh. Te te namah kah sal, a pa David taengah na thui coeng.
27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house that I have built?
Tedae Pathen he diklai ah ngol tang nim? Vaan neh vaan phoeikah vaan rhoek long pataengnang n'cangbam uh thai moenih. Te dongah he im ka sak long aisat he.
28 Yet have you respect unto the prayer of your servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer, which your servant prays before you to day:
Tedae na sal kah thangthuinah neh anih kah lungmacil taengla mael lah. Ka Pathen BOEIPA aw tamlung neh thangthuinah te han ya lah. Tihnin ah na sal hena mikhmuh ah thangthui coeng.
29 That your eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place of which you have said, My name shall be there: that you may hearken unto the prayer which your servant shall make toward this place.
“He im soah khoyin khothaih na mik dai thil lah. Te hmuen ah,” Ka ming pahoi om saeh,” na ti. Te dongah na sal loh he hmuen la a thangthui vanbangla thangthuinah te hnatun pah.
30 And hearken you to the supplication of your servant, and of your people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear you in heaven your dwelling place: and when you hear, forgive.
He hmuen la a thangthui uh vaengah, na sal neh na pilnam Israel kah lungmacil te hnatun pah. Namah loh na khosak nah hmuen ah hnatun pah. Vaan lamloh na yaak vaengah khaw khodawkngai pah.
31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before your altar in this house:
Hlang he a hui taengah tholh tih tap hamla a soah thaephoeinah a khuen tih ha pawk vaengahhe im kah na hmueihtuk hmai ah a tap atah,
32 Then hear you in heaven, and do, and judge your servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
Namah loh vaan lamkah hnatun lamtah rhoi pah. Halang boe sak ham na sal rhoek te laitloek pah. A khosing te amah lu ah khueh pah. Aka dueng tang sak ham te a duengnah bangla anih ham khueh pah.
33 When your people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against you, and shall return to you, and confess your name, and pray, and make supplication unto you in this house:
Na pilnam Israel khaw na taengah tholh uh tih thunkha mikhmuh ah a yawk vaengah, namah taengla mael uh tih na ming te a uem uh vaengah, he im ah namah taengah thangthui uh tih rhennah a bih vaengah,
34 Then hear you in heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which you gave unto their fathers.
namah loh vaan lamkah hnatun lamtah na pilnam Israel kah tholhnah te khodawkngai pah. Te phoeiah amih te a napa rhoek taengah na paek khohmuen la mael puei.
35 When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against you; if they pray toward this place, and confess your name, and turn from their sin, when you afflict them:
Na taengah tholh tih vaan ke a khaih dongah khotlan a om pawt vaengah, he hmuen la thangthui uh tih na ming te a uem uh vaengah, amih te na phaep tih a tholhnah lamloh a mael uh vaengah,
36 Then hear you in heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, that you teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon your land, which you have given to your people for an inheritance.
namah loh vaan lamkah hnatun lamtah na sal rhoek neh na pilnam Israel kah tholhnah te khodawkngai pah. Longpuei then te amih thuinuet lamtah a khuiah pongpa uh saeh. Te vaengah na pilnam taengah rho la na paek na khohmuen ah khotlan pae.
37 If there be in the land famine, if there be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, or if there be caterpillar; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there be;
Khohmuen ah khokha pai tihduektahaw vaengah, mawn neh dung, kaisih neh phol a tlung vaengah, a khohmuen vongka ah a thunkha om tih anih te a daengdaeh vaengah, nganboh boeih neh tlohtat cungkuem vaengah,
38 What prayer and supplication whatsoever be made by any man, or by all your people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
Hlang boeih lamkah neh, na pilnam Israel boeih lamtah aka thoeng thangthuinah boeih neh lungmacil boeih, hlang loh a thinko tloh a ming uh tih he im la a kut a phuel uh vaengah,
39 Then hear you in heaven your dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart you know; (for you, even you only, know the hearts of all the children of men; )
namah loh na om nah hmuen vaan lamkah hnatun lamtah khodawkngai pah. Na saii vaengah hlang te a thinko na ming dongah a cungkuem te amah khosing bangla khueh pah. Namah bueng loh hlang ca boeih kah thinko na ming.
40 That they may fear you all the days that they live in the land which you gave unto our fathers.
A pa rhoek taengah na paek khohmuen maelhmai dongkah mulhing rhoek loh amah tue khuiah namah te n'rhih uh saeh.
41 Moreover concerning a stranger, that is not of your people Israel, but comes out of a far country for your name's sake;
Kholong ham bal khaw, anih te na pilnam lamkah pawt dae na ming kongah khohla khohmuen lamloh ha pawk atah,
42 (For they shall hear of your great name, and of your strong hand, and of your stretched out arm; ) when he shall come and pray toward this house;
Na ming tanglue te ya uh saeh. Na tlungluen kut neh na ban khaw thueng lamtah ha pawk saeh lamtah he im ah thangthui saeh.
43 Hear you in heaven your dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calls to you for: that all people of the earth may know your name, to fear you, as do your people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have built, is called by your name.
Namah loh na om nah hmuen vaan lamloh hnatun pah. Kholong khaw namah taengah a bih bangla a cungkuem dongah rhoirhi pah. Te daengah ni diklai pilnam boeih loh na ming te a ming uh eh. Na pilnam Israel bangla nang rhih ham neh he im ah na ming khue ham ka sak te a ming eh.
44 If your people go out to battle against their enemy, anywhere you shall send them, and shall pray unto the LORD toward the city which you have chosen, and toward the house that I have built for your name:
Te te na coelh tih na ming ham im ka sak vanbangla amih te longpuei ah na tueih tihna pilnam loh a thunkha taengah caemtloek la a caeh vaengah khopuei long kah BOEIPA taengah a thangthui uh atah.
45 Then hear you in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
Amih kah thangthuinah neh a lungmacil te vaan lamloh hnatun pah lamtah amih kah laitloeknah saii pah.
46 If they sin against you, (for there is no man that sins not, ) and you be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;
Aka tholh pawt hlang he a om pawt oeh dongah nang taengah tholh uh tih amih taengah na thin a toek vaengah, amih te thunkha hmai ah na voeih. Te vaengah amih aka sol loh a yoei a hla kah thunkha khohmuen ah a sol uh.
47 Yet if they shall call to reflect themselves in the land where they were carried captives, and repent, and make supplication unto you in the land of them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness;
Tedae a sol nah khohmuen ah a lungbuei ah pahoi mael uh. Amih a sol nah khohmuen ah namah taengla mael uh tih rhennah a bih vaengah 'Ka tholh uh tih ka paihaeh uh dongah ka boe uh' a ti atah.
48 And so return unto you with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto you toward their land, which you gave unto their fathers, the city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your name:
Amih aka sol a thunkha rhoek khohmuen ah a thinko boeih, a hinglu boeih neh nang taengla a mael uh atah, a napa rhoek taengah na paek a khohmuen longpuei nang taengla a thangthui atah, khopuei he na coelh tih im ka sak he namah ming ham ni ka sak.
49 Then hear you their prayer and their supplication in heaven your dwelling place, and maintain their cause,
Te dongah amih kah thangthuinah neh amih kah lungmacil te na khosak nah hmuen vaan lamloh hnatun lamtah amih laitloeknah te saii pah.
50 And forgive your people that have sinned against you, and all their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against you, and give them compassion before them who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them:
Namah taengah aka tholh na pilnam taeng neh amih kah boekoeknah cungkuem taengah khodawkngai pah. Nang taengah boe a koek akhaw amih aka sol kah mikhmuh ah amih te haidamnah dongah na paek daengah ni amih te ahaidam uh eh.
51 For they be your people, and your inheritance, which you brought forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron:
Amih te Egypt lamkah thi hmai-ulh khui lamloh na khuen na pilnam neh na rho ni.
52 That your eyes may be open unto the supplication of your servant, and unto the supplication of your people Israel, to hearken unto them in all that they call for unto you.
Na mikte na sal kah lungmacil taeng neh na pilnam Israel kah lungmacil taengah aka dai la om saeh, namah taengah a cungkuem la a pang uh vaengah, amih te aka hnatun la om lah.
53 For you did separate them from among all the people of the earth, to be your inheritance, as you spoke by the hand of Moses your servant, when you brought our fathers out of Egypt, O LORD God.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, a pa rhoek te Egypt lamloh na sal Moses kut dongah na khuen vaengah na thui bangla namah loh amih te namah kah rho la diklai pilnam cungkuem lamloh na hoep coeng,” a ti.
54 And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven.
BOEIPA taengah thangthui ham thangthuinah neh lungmacil boeih he Solomon loh a khah phoeiah BOEIPA hmueihtuk hmai kah a khuklu dongah aka cungkueng lamloh thoh tih a kut te vaan la a phuel.
55 And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
Pai tih Israel hlangping cungkuem te yoethen a paek vaengah ol ue neh,
56 Blessed be the LORD, that has given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there has not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.
“A cungkuem ah a thui bangla a pilnam Israel taengah duemnah aka pae BOEIPA tah a yoethen pai. A sal Moses kut ah a thui a ol then boeih te ol pakhat khaw a hloo moenih.
57 The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:
Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA he a pa rhoek taengah a om bangla mamih taengah khaw om saeh. Mamih he n'hnoo boel saeh lamtah mamih he m'phap boel saeh.
58 That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
A pa rhoek a uen bangla mamih thinko he amah taengla buung ham, amah kah longpuei cungkuem ah pongpa ham, a olpaek, a oltlueh neh a laitloeknah khaw ngaithuen ham om.
59 And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh unto the LORD our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:
BOEIPA mikhmuh ah rhennah ka bih vanbangla ka ol he khoyin khothaih aka yoei mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen taengah om saeh. Te daengah ni hnin at kah olka dongah aka om a sal kah laitloeknah neh a pilnam Israel kah laitloeknah he amah khohnin ah a saii thai eh.
60 That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and that there is none else.
Te daengah ni diklai pilnam boeih loh Yahweh amah phoeiah Pathen tloe om pawh tila a ming eh.
61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
Tedae tahae khohnin kah bangla a oltlueh dongah pongpa ham neh a olpaek ngaithuen ham tah nangmih kah thinko te mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah a rhuemtuet la om saeh,” a ti.
62 And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.
Te phoeiah manghai neh a taengkah Israel boeih loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah hmueih a nawn uh.
63 And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered unto the LORD, two and twenty thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD.
Solomon loh rhoepnah hmueih a nawn tih BOEIPA taengah saelhung thawng kul thawng hnih neh boiva thawng yakhat thawng kul a nawn. Te tlam te manghai neh Israel ca boeih loh BOEIPA im te a uum uh.
64 The same day did the king hallow the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and food offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the LORD was too little to receive the burnt offerings, and food offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.
Teah te hmueihhlutnah neh khocang khaw, rhoepnah maehtha khaw a ngawn dongah Amah khohnin ah manghai loh BOEIPA im hmai kah vongup khui a ciim. Te vaengah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah rhohum hmueihtuk tah hmueihhlutnah neh khocang, rhoepnah maehtha a ael ham lakah a caek dongah ni.
65 And at that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.
Te vaeng tue ah Solomon loh khotue a saii tih a taengkah Israel boeih he Lebokhamath lamloh Egypt soklong duela khawk hlangping uh. Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah hnin rhih, hnin rhih, hnin hlai li a dunuh.
66 On the eighth day he sent the people away: and they blessed the king, and went unto their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
A hnin rhet dongah pilnam te a tueih tih manghai te yoethen a paekuh. BOEIPA loh a sal David ham neh a pilnam Israel ham a saii hnothen cungkuem ham kohoe neh lungbuei then la a dap te a paan uh.
