< 1 Kings 8 >
1 Then Solomon assembles the elderly of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, to King Solomon, to Jerusalem, to bring up the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH from the City of David—it [is] Zion;
Natonto’ i Selomò amy zao o androanavi’ Israeleo, naho o mpiaolom-pifokoañeo, o roandrian’ anjomban-droaen’ ana’ Israeleo, mb’amy Selomò Mpanjaka e Ierosalaimey, hampionjoneñe i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày boak’ an-drova’ i Davide e Tsione ao.
2 and all the men of Israel are assembled to King Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival (the seventh month).
Aa le fonga nifanontoñe amy Selomò amy sabadidakey o nte Israeleo ami’ty saramañitse, ty volam-pahafito.
3 And all [the] elderly of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the Ark,
Nimb’eo o roandria’ Israele iabio, vaho rinambe’ o mpisoroñeo i vatay.
4 and bring up the Ark of YHWH, and the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that [are] in the tent, indeed, the priests and the Levites bring them up.
Nampionjone’ iereo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày naho i kibohom-pamantañañey naho ze hene fanake amy kibohotsey; nampionjone’ o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio.
5 And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who are assembled to him [are] with him before the Ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered for multitude.
Niharo niaolo i vatay t’i Selomò mpanjaka naho i valobohò’ Israele nifamory ama’ey, le nisoroñe añondry naho añombe tsy nilefe talily ndra iake ami’ty fifamorohota’e.
6 And the priests bring in the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH to its place, to the oracle of the house, to the Holy of Holies, to the place of the wings of the cherubim;
Le nendese’ o mpisoroñeo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày mb’an-toe’e, mb’an-toe-miava’ i anjombay, mb’amy masiñe do’ey, ambane’ o ela’ i kerobe reio.
7 for the cherubim are spreading forth two wings to the place of the Ark, and the cherubim cover over the Ark, and over its poles from above;
Fa nivelare’ i kerobe rey ambone’ i toe’ i vataiy o ela’eo vaho tinako’ i kerobe rey i vatay naho o baom-pitarazoa’eo.
8 and they lengthen the poles, and the heads of the poles are seen from the holy [place] on the front of the oracle, and are not seen outside, and they are there to this day.
Aa akore ty halava’ i baom-pitarazoañe rey kanao isake amy toe-miavakey aolo’ i toe-masiñey, f’ie tsy oniñe boak’ alafe’e ao; mbe eo irezay henanekeo.
9 There is nothing in the Ark, only the two tablets of stone which Moses put there in Horeb when YHWH covenanted with the sons of Israel in their going out of the land of Egypt.
Vata koake re naho tsy i takelam-bato nagodo’ i Mosè ao e Korebe añe rey, ie nifañina amo ana’ Israeleo t’Iehovà, t’ie niavotse an-tane Mitsraime.
10 And it comes to pass, in the going out of the priests from the holy [place], that the cloud has filled the house of YHWH,
Aa ie nivovotse boak’ amy miavakey o mpisoroñeo, le nañatseke i anjomba’ Iehovày i rahoñey;
11 and the priests have not been able to stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of YHWH has filled the house of YHWH.
vaho tsy nahafijohañe eo hitoroñe o mpisoroñeo amy te natsafe’ ty enge’ Iehovà ty anjomba’ Iehovà.
12 Then Solomon said, “YHWH has said [He is] to dwell in thick darkness;
Aa le hoe t’i Selomò: Fa nitsarae’ Iehovà t’ie himoneñe an-drahoñe milodolodo ao.
13 I have surely built a house of habitation for You; a fixed place for Your abiding for all ages.”
Toe namboarako anjomba fimoneñan-dRehe, toetse himoneña’o nainai’e donia.
14 And the king turns his face around, and blesses the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.
Nampitoli-daharañe am’ izao i mpanjakay, nitata i valobohò’ Israeley, vaho hene niongake i valobohò’ Israeley.
15 And he says, “Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, who spoke by His mouth with my father David, and by His hand has fulfilled [it], saying,
Le hoe re: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, ie nitsara am-palie amy Davide raeko vaho nifonire’e am-pità’e ami’ ty hoe:
16 From the day that I brought out My people, even Israel, from Egypt, I have not fixed on a city out of all the tribes of Israel, to build a house for My Name being there; and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.
Sikal’ amy andro nampiavoteko amy Mitsraime ondatiko Israeleoy, le tsy eo ty rova nijoboñeko amo hene fifokoa’ Israeleo hañamboarako anjomba, hampipohako ty añarako, naho tsy i Davide ty jinoboko hifehe ondatiko Israeleo.
17 And it is with the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of YHWH, God of Israel,
Toe tañ’ arofo’ i Davide raeko ty hamboatse anjomba ho a i tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
18 and YHWH says to my father David, Because that it has been with your heart to build a house for My Name, you have done well that it has been with your heart;
Fe nanao ty hoe amy Davide raekoy t’Iehovà: Amy te añ’ arofo’o ty handranjy akiba ho ami’ty añarako, le nanao soa kanao tañ’arofo’o;
19 only, you do not build the house, but your son who is coming out from your loins, he builds the house for My Name.
fe tsy ihe ty hamboatse i anjombay, fa i ana-dahy hiboak’ an-tro’oy, ie ty handranjy ty anjomba ho ami’ty añarako.
20 And YHWH establishes His word which He spoke, and I am risen up instead of my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as YHWH spoke, and build the house for the Name of YHWH, God of Israel,
Fa najado’ Iehovà i tsara nanoe’ey amy te nitroatse an-toe’ i Davide raeko iraho naho mitobok’ am-piambesa’ Israele eo ty amy tsara’ Iehovà, vaho namonitse ty anjomba ho a i tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
21 and I set a place for the Ark there, where the covenant of YHWH [is], which He made with our fathers in His bringing them out from the land of Egypt.”
Le nampitoereko ao i vatay, ama’e ao i fañina’ Iehovà nanoe’e an-droaentika am-pampiengae’e iereo an-tane Mitsraimeiy.
22 And Solomon stands before the altar of YHWH, in front of all the assembly of Israel, and spreads his hands toward the heavens,
Le nijohañe aolo’ i kitreli’ Iehovày t’i Selomò añatrefa’ i valobohò’ Israeley, vaho nonjone’e mb’an-dikerañe ey o fità’eo,
23 and says, “YHWH, God of Israel, there is not a God like You, in the heavens above and on the earth below, keeping the covenant and the kindness for Your servants, those walking before You with all their heart,
nanao ty hoe: Ry Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, tsy eo t’i Andrianañahare manahak’ azo andindimoneñe añe ndra an-tane ambane atoy ze mahatambozòtse fañina naho ty fiferenaiñañe amo mpitoro’o mpañavelo añatrefa’o an-kaampon-trokeo;
24 which You have kept for Your servant, my father David, that which You spoke to him; indeed, You speak with Your mouth, and with Your hand have fulfilled [it], as [at] this day.
ie naha-tañe i tsinara’o am-pitoro’o Davide raekoy; toe tsinara’o am-palie vaho nihenefa’o am-pitàñe o isake henanekeo.
25 And now, YHWH, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, that which You spoke to him, saying, A man of yours is never cut off from before My face, sitting on the throne of Israel—only, if your sons watch their way, to walk before Me as you have walked before Me.
Ie amy zao, ry Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, afaharo amy mpitoro’o Davide raekoy, i tsinara’o ama’ey ami’ty hoe: Tsy ho po-ondaty hiambesatse amy fiambesa’ Israeley am-pahatreavako irehe, naho toe ambena’ o ana’oo ty lala’ iareo hañavelo añatrefako manahake o fañaveloa’oo.
26 And now, O God of Israel, please let Your word be established which You have spoken to Your servant, my father David.
Ie amy zao ry Andrianañahare’ Israele, ehe te ho venteseñe i tsara tsinara’o amy mpitoro’o Davide raekoiy.
27 But is it true [that] God dwells on the earth? Behold, the heavens and the heavens of the heavens cannot contain You, how much less this house which I have built!
Aa vaho himoneñe an-tane atoy vata’e hao t’i Andrianañahare? kanao tsy mahatañ’ Azo i likerañey ndra i likeran-dindimoneñey; sandrake ty anjomba rinanjiko toy!
28 Then You have turned to the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, O YHWH my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which Your servant is praying before You today,
Fa ehe haoño ty halali’ i mpitoro’oy, naho i fiambanea’ey ry Iehovà Andrianañahareko, janjiño ty toreo naho hàtake saboe’ ty mpitoro’o ama’o henaneo;
29 for Your eyes being open toward this house night and day, toward the place of which You have said, My Name is there; to listen to the prayer which Your servant prays toward this place.
te hisokake handro an-kàleñe mb’ ami’ty anjomba toy o fihaino’oo, mb’ amy toetse nitsarae’o ty hoe: Ho ao ty añarako; hahajanjiña’o o halaly ho halalie’ ty mpitoro’o mb’ ami’ ty toetse toio.
30 Then You have listened to the supplication of Your servant, and of Your people Israel, which they pray toward this place; indeed, You listen in the place of Your dwelling, in the heavens—and You have listened, and have forgiven,
Janjiño ty fidrakadrakafam-pitoro’o, naho ondati’o Israeleo, ie misabo mb’ami’ty toetse toy; janjiño am-pimoneña’o andindiñe ao; mijanjiña vaho mañahà.
31 that which a man sins against his neighbor, and he has lifted up an oath on him to cause him to swear, and the oath has come in before Your altar in this house,
Naho anañan-drañetse hakeo t’indaty, naho ampititihen-dre, ie mb’eo mifanta añatrefa’ ty kitreli’o añ’anjomba atoy;
32 then You hear in the heavens, and have done, and have judged Your servants, to declare wicked the wicked, to put his way on his [own] head, and to declare righteous the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
le mijanjiña andindimoneñe ao, naho mitoloña, vaho zakao o mpitoro’oo, taroño amy ratiy t’ie raty, hampibalike o hatsivokara’eo añ’ ambone’eo; naho meo tò ty vantañe, hañolorañe aze mañeva i fahiti’ey.
33 In Your people Israel being struck before an enemy, because they sin against You, and they have turned back to You, and have confessed Your Name, and prayed, and made supplication to You in this house,
Aa ie zevoeñe aolon-drafelahy ondati’o Israeleo, t’ie aman-tahiñe ama’o; naho mimpoly ama’o naho mamela-pitàn-droe amy tahina’oy, naho misoloho vaho mihalaly ama’o ami’ty anjomba toy,
34 then you hear in the heavens, and have forgiven the sin of Your people Israel, and brought them back to the ground that You gave to their fathers.
le mijanjiña andindimoneñe ao, naho hahao o hakeo’ ondati’o Israeleoo vaho ampolio mb’an-tane’ natolo’o an-droae’ iareo mb’atoy.
35 In the heavens being restrained, and there is no rain, because they sin against You, and they have prayed toward this place, and confessed Your Name, and turn back from their sin, for You afflict them,
Ie migabeñe i likerañey, tsy avy i orañey kanao nandilatse ama’o iereo, le ie misoloho mb’ami’ty toetse toy mamela-pitan-droe amy tahina’oy naho miamboho amy hakeo nampisotria’o iareoy,
36 then You hear in the heavens, and have forgiven the sin of Your servants, and of Your people Israel, for You direct them [to] the good way in which they go, and have given rain on Your land which You have given to Your people for inheritance.
le mijanjiña andikerañe ao, naho apoho ty tahi’ o mpitoro’oo naho ondati’o Israeleo vaho anaro iareo i lalam-bantañe fañaveloañey, hampahavia’o orañe i tane’o natolo’o am’ondati’oo ho lovay.
37 Famine—when it is in the land; pestilence—when it is [in the land]; blasting, mildew, locust; caterpillar—when it is [in the land]; when its enemy has distressed it in the land [in] its gates, any plague, any sickness—
Naho kerè i taney, he angorosy ke pozy he tromambo ke valala he beañe, ke forokeken-drafelahi’e o rova an-tane’eo; ke kiria ino, hera areteñ’ ino;
38 any prayer, any supplication that [is] of any man of all Your people Israel, each who knows the plague of his own heart, and has spread his hands toward this house,
le ze halaly ndra soloho anoe’ t’indaty ndra ze hene ondati’o Israeleo, ie songa fohi’e ty hìla an-tro’e ao vaho mamela-pitan-droe mb’ami’ty anjomba toy,
39 then You hear in the heavens, the settled place of Your dwelling, and have forgiven, and have done, and have given to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for You have known—You alone—the heart of all the sons of man),
le mijanjiña andindiñe añe, amy akiba-pimoneña’oy, le apoho naho mitoloña, vaho sindre toloro ty amo sata’eo t’indaty, fa arofoana’o ty tro’e (amy te Ihe avao ro maharofoanañe ty arofo’ o ana’ ondatio),
40 so that they fear You all the days that they are living on the face of the ground that You have given to our fathers.
hañeveña’ iereo ama’o amo hene andro hiveloma’ iareo an-tane natolo’o aman-droae’aio.
41 And also, to the stranger who is not of Your people Israel, and has come from a far-off land for Your Name’s sake—
Le i renetane tsy boak’ am’ ondati’o Israeleoy, ie hirike tsietoitane añe ty amy tahina’oy —
42 for they hear of Your great Name, and of Your strong hand, and of Your outstretched arm—and he has come in and prayed toward this house,
kanao ho janjiñe’e i tahina’o ra’elahiy naho i fità’o maozatsey vaho i fità’o natorakitsi’oy— ie miheo mb’ etoa hitalaho mb’ami’ty anjomba toy;
43 You hear in the heavens, the settled place of Your dwelling, and have done according to all that the stranger calls to You for, in order that all the peoples of the earth may know Your Name, to fear You like Your people Israel, and to know that Your Name has been called on this house which I have built.
le mijanjiña andindimoneñe an-toe-pimoneña’o ao, naho henefo o kanjia’ i renetaney azoo; hahafohina’ ze kila’ ondati’ ty tane toy ty tahina’o, hañeveñe ama’o, manahake ondati’o Israeleo, hahafohina’ iareo te kanjieñe ami’ty anjomba niranjieko toy i tahina’oy.
44 When Your people go out to battle against its enemy, in the way that You send them, and they have prayed to YHWH [in] the way of the city which you have fixed on, and of the house which I have built for Your Name,
Aa ie mionjomb’ an-kotakotak’ amo rafelahi’eo ondati’oo, ndra mb’ aia aia ty hañiraha’o iareo, vaho mihalaly am’ Iehovà mb’amy rova nijoboñe’oy, mb’ amy anjomba namboareko ho amy tahina’oiy;
45 then You have heard their prayer and their supplication in the heavens, and have maintained their cause.
le janjiño an-dikerañe ao i sabo’ iareoy, naho i halali’ iareoy vaho meo to.
46 When they sin against You (for there is not a man who does not sin), and You have been angry with them, and have given them up before an enemy, and they have taken captive their captivity to the land of the enemy far off or near;
Ie miota ama’o—amy te tsy eo ze ondaty tsy mandilatse zao—le iviñera’o vaho atolo’o an-drafelahi’ iareo, hasese an-drohy mb’an-tanen-drafelahy añe, ke te lavitse he marine;
47 and they have turned [it] back to their heart in the land to where they have been taken captive, and have turned back, and made supplication to You in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned and done perversely—we have done wickedly;
le ie mitsakore an-tane naneseañe iareo an-drohy añe, naho mitolike naho midrakadrakak’ ama’o an-tane’ o naneseañe iareo an-drohio, manao ty hoe: Nanao hakeo zahay, nanao hatsivokarañe, vaho nitolon-karatiañe;
48 indeed, they have turned back to You with all their heart and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed to You [in] the way of their land, which You gave to their fathers, the city which You have chosen, and the house which I have built for Your Name:
ie mimpoly ama’o an’ kaampon’ arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova an-tanen-drafelahi’ o nanese iareo an-drohio, naho mitalaho ama’o mb’an-tane natolo’o aman-droae’ iareo, mb’androva jinobo’o toy; vaho mb’amy anjomba niranjieko ho amy tahina’oiy;
49 then You have heard in the heavens, the settled place of Your dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and have maintained their cause,
le janjiño ty halali’ iareo naho ty fisaboa’ iareo mb’ an-toe-pimoneña’o andindimoneñe añe, vaho meo to;
50 and have forgiven Your people who have sinned against You, even all their transgressions which they have transgressed against You, and have given them mercies before their captors, and they have had mercy [on] them—
naho apoho o hakeo nandilara’ ondati’o ama’oo, naho o fiolàñe niolà’ iareo; le iferenaiño añatrefa’ o ninday iareo an-drohy mb’eo hitretreza’ iareo;
51 for they [are] Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron—
amy t’ie ondati’o, i lova’o nakare’o amy Mitsraime, boak’ añivo i toñake viñey.
52 for Your eyes being open to the supplication of Your servant, and to the supplication of Your people Israel, to listen to them in all they call to You for;
Ehe manokafa fihaino amo halalim-pitoro’oo naho ami’ty fisolohoa’ ondati’o Israeleo, hihaoña’o ndra mbia’ mbia ty itoreova’ iareo.
53 for You have separated them to Yourself for an inheritance, out of all the peoples of the earth, as You spoke by the hand of Your servant Moses, in Your bringing out our fathers from Egypt, O Lord YHWH.”
Amy t’ie navahe’o amo hene ondati’ ty tane toio, ho lova’o, amy nitsarae’o am-pità’ i Mosè mpitoro’oy, ie nampiavote’o amy Mitsraime o roae’aio, ry Talè Iehovà.
54 And it comes to pass, at Solomon’s finishing to pray to YHWH all this prayer and supplication, he has risen from before the altar of YHWH, from bending on his knees and [having] his hands spread out to the heavens,
Ie nagado’ i Selomò ty nitaroñe’e i hene halaly naho soloho am’ Iehovà rezay le niongak’ aolo’ i kitreli’ Iehovày, amy nitongalefa’e naho namelatse fitañe mb’an-dindim-b’eoy,
55 and he stands and blesses all the assembly of Israel [with] a loud voice, saying,
le nijohañe vaho nitata i hene valobohò’ Israele am-pazake ty hoe:
56 “Blessed [is] YHWH who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He has spoken; not [even] one word has fallen of all His good word, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Moses.
Andriañeñe t’Iehovà nanolo-pitofàñe am’ondati’eo ty amo tsara’e iabio; leo raike tsy nipok’ amo tsara’e soa nampitama’e am-pità’ i Mose mpitoro’eo.
57 Our God YHWH is with us as He has been with our fathers; He does not forsake us nor leave us;
Ho aman-tika t’Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika, manahake t’ie nimpiaman-droaen-tikañe; lonike t’ie tsy hienga antika, tsy haforintse’e;
58 to incline our heart to Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;
fa hampitoliha’e mb’ama’e o arofon-tikañeo, hañaveloan-tika amo lala’eo, hañorike o lili’eo naho o fañè’eo vaho o fepètse linili’e an-droaen-tikañeo.
59 and these, my words, with which I have made supplication before YHWH, are near to our God YHWH by day and by night, to maintain the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of a day in its day,
Le ehe te harine’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika handro an-kaleñe o entañe nihalalieko am’ Iehovào, hañomea’e to i mpitoro’ey naho ondati’e Israeleo, ami’ty fañeva’e boak’ andro;
60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that He, YHWH, [is] God; there is none else;
hahafohina’ ze hene ondati’ ty tane toy t’Iehovà, t’ie ro Andrianañahare tsy aman-tovo’e.
61 and your heart has been perfect with our God YHWH, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commands, as [at] this day.”
Ee abey te ho am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika an-kaliforan’ arofo nahareo, hañavelo amo fañè’eo, naho hañorike o lili’eo, manahake henaneo.
62 And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before YHWH;
Le fonga nañenga soroñe añatrefa’ Iehovà eo i mpanjakay naho Israele nitraok’ ama’e.
63 and Solomon sacrifices the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he has sacrificed to YHWH: twenty-two thousand oxen and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep; and the king and all the sons of Israel dedicate the house of YHWH.
Binanabana’ i Selomò amy engam-panintsiñañe nisoroña’e am’ Iehovày ty añombe roe-ale-tsi-ro’ arivo, naho añondry rai-hetse-tsi-ro’ale. Izay ty nañoriza’ i mpanjakay naho o ana’ Israeleo ty anjomba’ Iehovà.
64 On that day the king has sanctified the middle of the court that [is] before the house of YHWH, for he has made the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings there; for the altar of bronze that [is] before YHWH [is] too small to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings.
Amy àndroy ka ty nañoriza’ i mpanjakay ty añivo’ i kiririsa aolo’ i anjomba’ Iehovày; fa teo ty nañenga’e o soroñeo, naho o enga-mahakamao, naho ty safo’ o engam-panintsiñañeo; amy te ni-loho kede ty kitrely torisike añatrefa’ Iehovà, tsy ho ni-tsahatse aze i nisoroñañe naho i enga-mahakama vaho safo’ o engam-panintsiñañeo rezay.
65 And Solomon makes, at that time, the festival—and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entering in of Hamath to the Brook of Egypt—before our God YHWH, [for] seven days and seven [more] days—fourteen days.
Aa le nambena’ i Selomò miharo am’ Israele iaby henane zay i sabadidakey, nivalobohòke jabajaba boak’ am-pimoahañe e Kamate, pak’ an-toraha’ i Mitsraime añe añ’atrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tikañe, fito andro nitovoñañe fito; andro folo-efats’ amby.
66 On the eighth day he has sent the people away, and they bless the king, and go to their tents, rejoicing and glad of heart for all the good that YHWH has done to His servant David, and to His people Israel.
Nampolie’e amy andro fahavaloy ondatio, naho nandriañe’ iareo i mpanjakay naho songa noly mb’an-kiboho’e mb’eo an-drebeke naho añ’ arofo mifale ty amo hene hasoa nanoe’ Iehovà amy Davide mpitoro’ey vaho am’ Israele ondati’eo.
