1 Kings 8
1 Then did Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the divisions of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, which is Zion.
Potem je Salomon zbral Izraelove starešine in vse poglavarje rodov, vodilne izmed očetov Izraelovih otrok, h kralju Salomonu v Jeruzalem, da bi lahko prinesli gor skrinjo Gospodove zaveze iz Davidovega mesta, ki je Sion.
2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
Vsi možje iz Izraela so se na praznik zbrali h kralju Salomonu, v mesecu etanímu, ki je sedmi mesec.
3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
Prišli so vsi Izraelovi starešine in duhovniki so dvignili skrinjo.
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 these did the priests and the Levites bring up.
Gor so prinesli Gospodovo skrinjo, šotorsko svetišče skupnosti shoda in vse svete posode, ki so bile v šotorskem svetišču, celo te so duhovniki in Lévijevci prinesli gor.
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.
Kralj Salomon in vsa Izraelova skupnost, ki je bila zbrana k njemu, so bili z njim pred skrinjo. Žrtvovali so ovce in vole, ki se jih zaradi množice ni dalo ne povedati ne prešteti.
6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord unto its place, into the debir of the house, into the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.
Duhovniki so skrinjo Gospodove zaveze prinesli na njeno mesto, v hišni orakelj, k najsvetejšemu kraju, celo pod peruti kerubov.
7 For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its staves from above.
Kajti keruba sta svoji dve peruti razprostirala nad prostorom skrinje in keruba sta od zgoraj pokrivala skrinjo in njena drogova.
8 And they had made the staves so long, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy place in the front of the debir, but they were not seen without; and they have remained there until this day.
Drogova so izvlekli, da sta se konca drogov videla iz svetega kraja pred orakljem, odzunaj pa nista bila vidna in tam sta do današnjega dne.
9 There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses had placed therein at Horeb, where the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
V skrinji ni bilo ničesar razen dveh kamnitih plošč, ki ju je Mojzes položil tja pri Horebu, ko je Gospod sklenil zavezo z Izraelovi otroci, ko so prišli iz egiptovske dežele.
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:
Pripetilo se je, ko so duhovniki prišli ven iz svetega kraja, da je oblak napolnil Gospodovo hišo,
11 And the priests were not able to stand to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.
tako da duhovniki zaradi oblaka niso mogli stati, da bi služili, kajti Gospodova slava je napolnila Gospodovo hišo.
12 Then said Solomon, The Lord said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Potem je spregovoril Salomon: » Gospod je rekel, da bo prebival v gosti temi.
13 I have indeed built a dwelling-house for thee, a settled place for thy abode for ever.
Zagotovo sem ti zgradil hišo, da prebivaš v njej, ustaljen kraj zate, da v njem prebivaš na veke.«
14 And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel; and all the congregation of Israel was standing;
Kralj je obrnil svoj obraz naokrog in blagoslovil vso Izraelovo skupnost (in vsa Izraelova skupnost je stala)
15 And he said, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, when he said,
in rekel je: »Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ki je s svojimi usti spregovoril mojemu očetu Davidu in je to izpolnil s svojo roko, rekoč:
16 Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I did not make choice of any city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, that my name might be therein; but I made choice of David to be over my people Israel.
›Od dneva, ko sem svoje ljudstvo Izraela privedel ven iz Egipta, nisem izbral nobenega mesta izmed vseh Izraelovih rodov, da bi zgradil hišo, da bi bilo v njej lahko moje ime, temveč sem izbral Davida, da bo nad mojim ljudstvom Izraelom.‹
17 And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
To je bilo na srcu mojega očeta Davida, da zgradi hišo za ime Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga.
18 But the Lord said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart:
Gospod je rekel mojemu očetu Davidu: ›Medtem ko je bilo to v tvojem srcu, da zgradiš hišo mojemu imenu, si storil dobro, da je bilo to v tvojem srcu.
19 Nevertheless, thou shalt not thyself build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name.
Vendar pa hiše ne boš gradil ti, temveč tvoj sin, ki bo izšel iz tvojih ledij, on bo zgradil hišo mojemu imenu.‹
20 And the Lord hath fulfilled his word that he hath spoken: and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord hath spoken, and I have built the house for the name of the Lord the God of Israel.
Gospod je izpolnil svojo besedo, ki jo je govoril in dvignjen sem bil na položaj svojega očeta Davida in sedim na Izraelovem prestolu, kakor je obljubil Gospod in zgradil sem hišo za ime Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga.
21 And I have assigned there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt.
Tam sem pripravil prostor za skrinjo, v kateri je Gospodova zaveza, ki jo je on sklenil z našimi očeti, ko jih je privedel ven iz egiptovske dežele.«
22 And Solomon now placed himself before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven;
Salomon je stal pred Gospodovim oltarjem v prisotnosti vse Izraelove skupnosti in svoji roki razširil proti nebu
23 And he said, O Lord, the God of Israel, there is no god like thee, in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath, thou who keepest the covenant and the kindness for thy servants that walk before thee with all their heart;
in rekel: » Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ni Boga, podobnega tebi, na nebu zgoraj ali na zemlji spodaj, ki ohranjaš zavezo in usmiljenje s svojimi služabniki, ki z vsem svojim srcem hodijo pred teboj,
24 Who hast kept for thy servant David my father what thou hadst promised him; and thou spokest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thy hand, as it is this day.
ki si svojemu služabniku Davidu, mojemu očetu, ohranil to, kar si mu obljubil. Govoril si s svojimi usti in si to tudi izpolnil s svojo roko, kakor je to ta dan.
25 And now, O Lord, the God of Israel, keep for thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken concerning him, saying, There shall never fail thee a man in my sight who sitteth on the throne of Israel; if thy children but take heed to their way to walk before me, as thou hast walked before me.
Zato zdaj Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ohrani s svojim služabnikom Davidom, mojim očetom, to, kar si mu obljubil, rekoč: ›Ne bo ti zmanjkalo moža v mojem pogledu, da bi sedel na Izraelovem prestolu; samo da tvoji otroci pazijo na svojo pot, da hodijo pred menoj, kakor si ti hodil pred menoj.‹
26 And now, O God of Israel, I pray thee, let thy word be verified, which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David my father.
Sedaj, oh Izraelov Bog, naj bo tvoja beseda, prosim te, resnična, ki si jo govoril svojemu služabniku, mojemu očetu Davidu.
27 For in truth will God then dwell on the earth? behold, the heavens and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee: how much less then this house that I have built!
Toda ali bo Bog zares prebival na zemlji? Glej, nebo in nebesa nebes te ne morejo obseči, kako veliko manj ta hiša, ki sem jo zgradil?
28 Yet wilt thou turn thy regard unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O Lord my God, to listen unto the entreaty and unto the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee today;
Vendar se ozri na molitev svojega služabnika in k njegovi ponižni prošnji, oh Gospod, moj Bog, da prisluhneš klicu in molitvi, ki jo ta dan tvoj služabnik moli pred teboj,
29 That thy eyes may be open toward this house night and day, toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there; that thou mayest listen unto the prayer which thy servant shall pray at this place.
da bodo tvoje oči lahko ponoči in podnevi odprte proti tej hiši, torej proti kraju, o katerem si rekel: ›Moje ime bo tam, ‹ da boš lahko prisluhnil molitvi, ki jo bo tvoj služabnik naredil k temu kraju.
30 And listen thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they will pray at this place: and oh, do thou hear in heaven thy dwelling-place; and hear, and forgive.
Prisluhni ponižni prošnji svojega služabnika in svojega ljudstva Izraela, ko bodo molili k temu kraju. Pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem prebivališču. In ko si pozorno slišal, odpusti.
31 If any man trespass against his neighbor, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before thy altar in this house:
Če se katerikoli človek prekrši zoper svojega bližnjega in je nanj položena prisega, da mu povzroči, da priseže in prisega pride pred tvoj oltar v tej hiši,
32 Then do thou hear in heaven, and act, and judge thy servants, by condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and by justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, ukrepaj in sodi svoja služabnika, obsodi zlobnega, da privedeš njegovo pot na njegovo glavo in opraviči pravičnega, da mu daš glede na njegovo pravičnost.
33 When thy people Israel are struck down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and they return then to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house:
Ko bo tvoje ljudstvo Izrael udarjeno pred sovražnikom, ker so grešili zoper tebe in se bo ponovno obrnilo k tebi, priznalo tvoje ime, molilo in naredilo ponižno prošnjo k tebi v tej hiši,
34 Then do thou hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and cause them to return unto the land which thou hast given unto their fathers.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih in odpusti greh svojega ljudstva Izraela in jih ponovno privedi v deželo, ki jo daješ njihovim očetom.
35 When the heavens be shut up, and there be no rain, because they have sinned against thee, and they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, because thou hast afflicted them:
Ko je nebo zaprto in ni dežja, ker so grešili zoper tebe; če molijo k temu kraju in priznajo tvoje ime in se obrnejo od svojega greha, ko si jih ti prizadel,
36 Then do thou hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel; for thou wilt teach them the good way wherein they should walk; and give then rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih in odpusti greh svojih služabnikov in svojega ljudstva Izraela, da jih naučiš dobro pot, po kateri naj bi hodili in jim daš dež na svojo deželo, ki si jo dal svojemu ljudstvu v dediščino.
37 If there be a famine in the land, if there be pestilence, blasting, mildew, or if there be locust, caterpillar, if their enemy besiege them in the land of their gates; at whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness;
Če bo v deželi lakota, če bo kužna bolezen, kvarjenje, plesen, leteča kobilica ali če bo tam gosenica; če jih njihov sovražnik oblega v deželi njihovih mest, kakršnakoli nadloga, kakršnakoli bolezen bo,
38 What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, of all thy people Israel, when they shall be conscious every man of the plague of his own heart, and he then spread forth his hands toward this house:
kakršnokoli molitev in ponižno prošnjo bo naredil katerikoli človek ali vse tvoje ljudstvo Izrael, ki bo spoznal, vsak mož nadlogo svojega lastnega srca in bo svoje roke razširil proti tej hiši,
39 Then do thou hear in heaven the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and act, and give to every man in accordance with all his ways, as thou mayest know his heart; for thou, thyself alone, knowest the heart of all the children of men;
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem prebivališču, odpusti, ukrepaj in daj vsakemu možu glede na njegove poti, čigar srce poznaš (kajti ti, celó le ti, poznaš srca vseh človeških otrok),
40 In order that they may fear thee all the days that they live on the face of the land which thou hast given unto our fathers.
da se te bodo lahko bali vse dni, ki jih živijo v deželi, ki si jo dal našim očetom.
41 But also to the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far-off country for the sake of thy name;
Poleg tega glede tujca, ki ni iz tvojega ljudstva Izraela, temveč zaradi tvojega imena prihaja iz daljne dežele
42 For they will hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy outstretched arm; when he will come and pray at this house:
(kajti slišali bodo o tvojem velikem imenu, o tvoji močni roki in o tvojem iztegnjenem laktu), ko bo prišel in molil k tej hiši,
43 Mayest thou listen in heaven the place of thy dwelling, and do according to all that the stranger will call on thee for; in order that all the nations of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as [do] thy people Israel; and that they may understand that this house, which I have built, is called by thy name.
pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem bivališču in ukrepaj glede na vse, za kar bo tujec klical k tebi, da bo vse ljudstvo zemlje lahko spoznalo tvoje ime, da se te boji, kakor to dela tvoje ljudstvo Izrael in da bodo lahko vedeli, da je ta hiša, ki sem jo zgradil, imenovana po tvojem imenu.
44 If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, on the way on which thou mayest send them, and they do pray unto the Lord in the direction of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the house that I have built for thy name:
Če gre tvoje ljudstvo ven na bitko zoper svojega sovražnika, kamorkoli jih boš poslal in bodo molili h Gospodu, k mestu, ki si ga ti izbral in k hiši, ki sem jo zgradil za tvoje ime,
45 Then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and procure them justice.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih njihovo molitev, njihovo ponižno prošnjo in obravnavaj njihov primer.
46 If they sin against thee, [for there is no man that may not sin, ] and thou be angry with them, and give them up before the enemy, so that their captors carry them away captive unto the land of the enemy, [be it] far or near;
Če grešijo zoper tebe (kajti tam ni človeka, ki ne greši) in si jezen nanje in jih izročiš sovražniku, tako da jih odvedejo ujetnike v deželo sovražnika, daleč ali blizu,
47 And if they then take it to their heart in the land whither they have been carried captive, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, we have acted wickedly;
vendar če si bodo premislili v deželi, kamor so bili odvedeni ujeti in se pokesajo in naredijo ponižno prošnjo k tebi, v deželi tistih, ki so jih odvedli ujete, rekoč: ›Grešili smo in storili pokvarjeno, zagrešili smo zlobnost‹
48 And they return unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, who have led them away captive, and they pray unto thee in the direction of their land, which thou hast given unto their fathers, of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the house which I have built for thy name:
in se tako vrnejo k tebi z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo v deželi svojih sovražnikov, ki so jih odvedli ujete in molijo k tebi, k svoji deželi, ki si jo dal njihovim očetom, mestu, ki si ga ti izbral in hiši, ki sem jo zgradil za tvoje ime,
49 Then hear thou in heaven the place of thy dwelling their prayer and their supplication, and procure them justice;
potem pozorno poslušaj njihovo molitev in njihovo ponižno prošnjo v nebesih, svojem prebivališču in obravnavaj njihov primer
50 And forgive thy people for what they have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions whereby they have transgressed against thee, and cause them to find mercy before their captors, that they may have mercy on them;
in odpusti svojemu ljudstvu, ker so grešili zoper tebe in vse njihove prestopke, s katerimi so se prekršili zoper tebe in jim daj sočutje pred tistimi, ki so jih odvedli ujete, da bodo lahko imeli sočutje do njih,
51 For they are thy people, and thy heritage, whom thou hast brought forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the iron furnace;
kajti oni so tvoje ljudstvo in tvoja dediščina, ki si jo privedel iz Egipta, iz srede železne talilne peči,
52 That thy eyes may be open unto the supplication of thy servant, and unto the supplication of thy people Israel, to listen unto them in all for which they call unto thee;
da bodo tvoje oči lahko odprte k ponižni prošnji tvojega služabnika in k ponižni prošnji tvojega ljudstva Izraela, da jim prisluhneš v vsem, v čemer kličejo k tebi.
53 For thou hast separated them unto thee as a heritage from all the people of the earth, as thou spokest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest forth our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord Eternal.
Kajti oddvojil si jih izmed vsega zemeljskega ljudstva, da bi bili tvoja dediščina, kakor si govoril po roki svojega služabnika Mojzesa, ko si naše očete privedel iz Egipta, oh Gospod Bog.«
54 And it happened, 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 out toward heaven.
Bilo je tako, ko je Salomon nehal moliti vso to molitev in ponižno prošnjo h Gospodu, da je vstal izpred Gospodovega oltarja od klečanja na svojih kolenih, s svojima rokama, razširjenima k nebu.
55 And he stood up, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
Vstal je in z močnim glasom blagoslovil vso Izraelovo skupnost, rekoč:
56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest unto his people Israel, in accordance with all that he hath spoken: [so that] there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he spoke by the hand of Moses his servant.
»Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki je svojemu ljudstvu Izraelu dal počitek, glede na vse, kar je obljubil. Niti ena beseda ni manjkala od vse njegove dobre obljube, ki jo je obljubil po roki svojega služabnika Mojzesa.
57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers; oh may he not leave us, nor forsake us;
Gospod, naš Bog, naj bo z nami, kakor je bil z našimi očeti. Naj nas ne pusti niti naj nas ne zapusti,
58 That he may incline our heart unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his ordinances, which he commanded our fathers.
da bo lahko naša srca nagnil k sebi, da hodimo po vseh njegovih poteh in da ohranjamo vse njegove zapovedi, njegove zakone in njegove sodbe, ki jih je zapovedal našim očetom.
59 And may these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the Lord, be nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel in their daily requirements;
Naj bodo te moje besede, s katerimi sem naredil ponižno prošnjo pred Gospodom, blizu Gospodu, našemu Bogu, podnevi in ponoči, da ohrani zadevo svojega služabnika in zadevo svojega ljudstva Izraela ob vseh časih, kakor bo stvar zahtevala,
60 In order that all the nations of the earth may know that the Lord is the [true] God, and none else.
da bo vse ljudstvo zemlje lahko vedelo, da Gospod je Bog in da tam ni nobenega drugega.
61 Let your heart therefore be entire with the Lord our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
Naj bo vaše srce torej popolno z Gospodom, našim Bogom, da se ravna po njegovih zakonih in da ohranja njegove zapovedi, kakor je ta dan.«
62 And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifices before the Lord.
Kralj in ves Izrael z njim je daroval klavno daritev pred Gospodom.
63 And Solomon offered [as] the sacrifice of peace-offering which he offered unto the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. And thus did the king and all the children of Israel dedicate the house of the Lord.
Salomon je daroval žrtvovanje mirovnih daritev, ki jih je daroval Gospodu, dvaindvajset tisoč volov in sto dvajset tisoč ovc. Tako so kralj in vsi Izraelovi otroci posvetili Gospodovo hišo.
64 On the same day did the king hallow the interior of the court that was before the house of the Lord; for he prepared there the burnt-offerings, and the meat-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings; because the copper altar that was before the Lord was too small to contain the burnt-offerings, and the meat-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings.
Istega dne je kralj posvetil sredino dvora, ki je bila pred Gospodovo hišo, kajti tam je daroval žgalne daritve, jedilne daritve in tolščo mirovnih daritev, ker je bil bronast oltar, ki je bil pred Gospodom, premajhen, da sprejme žgalne daritve, jedilne daritve in tolščo mirovnih daritev.
65 And Solomon held at that time the feast, and all Israel with him, a great assembly, from the entrance of Chamath unto the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.
Ob tistem času je Salomon priredil praznovanje in ves Izrael z njim, velika skupnost, od vhoda v Hamát do egiptovske reke, pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, sedem dni in sedem dni, torej štirinajst dni.
66 On the eighth day he dismissed the people, and they blessed the king; and they went unto their tents joyful and glad of heart, because of all the good that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
Na osmi dan je ljudstvo odposlal proč in blagoslovili so kralja in radostni in veselega srca zaradi vse dobrote, ki jo je Gospod storil za svojega služabnika Davida in za svoje ljudstvo Izrael, odšli k svojim šotorom.
