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;
Afei, Salomo frɛɛ Israel mmusuakuo ne mmusua biara mu ntuanofoɔ nyinaa, sɛ wɔnhyia wɔ Yerusalem. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa Awurade Apam Adaka no firi baabi a ɛwɔ wɔ Dawid kuro a wɔfrɛ no Sion no mu, de ba baabi foforɔ wɔ Asɔredan mu hɔ.
2 and all the men of Israel are assembled to King Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival (the seventh month).
Wɔn nyinaa bɛhyiaa wɔ ɔhene anim wɔ afirinhyia afahyɛ a wɔfrɛ no Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ no ase wɔ bosome Bul (bɛyɛ Ahinime) mu.
3 And all [the] elderly of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the Ark,
Ɛberɛ a mpanimfoɔ no duruu Israel no, asɔfoɔ no maa Adaka no so.
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.
Afei, asɔfoɔ no ne Lewifoɔ maa Awurade Adaka no ne Ntomadan no so, soa de kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu a ɛho nkuku ne nkaka a wɔate ho no ka ho.
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.
Ɔhene Salomo ne Israel manfoɔ no nyinaa de nnwan ne anantwie a wɔn dodoɔ nni ano bɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ Adaka no anim.
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;
Afei, asɔfoɔ no soaa Awurade Adaka no de kɔɔ Asɔredan no kronkron mu kronkron hɔ. Wɔde sii Kerubim no ntaban ase.
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;
Kerubim no trɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu wɔ Adaka no so, ma ɛyɛɛ sɛ kyiniiɛ wɔ Adaka no ne ne nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no so.
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.
Na nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no woware ara kɔsi sɛ, sɛ obi gyina Asɔredan no kwan a ɛwɔ anim dan kɛseɛ a ɛyɛ kronkronbea no ano a, ɔhunu, nanso sɛ ɔgyina akyire deɛ a, ɔnhunu. Ne nyinaa da so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
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.
Na biribiara nni Adaka no mu ka aboɔ apono mmienu a Mose de guu mu wɔ Horeb no, baabi a Awurade ne Israelfoɔ yɛɛ apam, ɛberɛ a wɔfirii Misraim no.
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,
Asɔfoɔ no refiri Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ no, omununkum bɛhyɛɛ Awurade Asɔredan no ma.
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.
Asɔfoɔ no antumi antoa wɔn dwumadie no so, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade animuonyam bɛhyɛɛ Asɔredan no ma.
12 Then Solomon said, “YHWH has said [He is] to dwell in thick darkness;
Na Salomo bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, woaka sɛ wobɛtena omununkum kusuu mu.
13 I have surely built a house of habitation for You; a fixed place for Your abiding for all ages.”
Nanso, masi Asɔredan a ɛwɔ animuonyam ama wo a wobɛtumi atena mu afebɔɔ.”
14 And the king turns his face around, and blesses the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.
Na ɔhene no danee ne ho kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ a wɔgyina nʼanim no nyinaa, hyiraa wɔn sɛ,
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,
“Nhyira nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a wadi ɛbɔ a ɔhyɛɛ mʼagya Dawid no so.
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.
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ mʼagya sɛ, ‘Ɛfiri da a mede me nkurɔfoɔ Israel firi Misraim baeɛ no, mannyi kuro biara wɔ Israel mmusuakuo no mu a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi asɔredan, de hyɛ me din animuonyam. Nanso, seesei mayi Dawid sɛ ɔnni ɔhene wɔ me nkurɔfoɔ so.’”
17 And it is with the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of YHWH, God of Israel,
Na Salomo kaa sɛ, “Mʼagya pɛɛ sɛ anka ɔsi Asɔredan yi de hyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
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;
Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ sɛ wopɛ sɛ wosi Asɔredan de hyɛ me din animuonyam,
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.
nanso ɛnyɛ wo na wobɛyɛ. Mmom, wo mmammarima no mu baako na ɔbɛsi.’
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,
“Na seesei, Awurade ayɛ deɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho bɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ, madi adeɛ sɛ ɔhene, asi mʼagya anan mu. Masi saa Asɔredan yi de ahyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
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.”
Na masiesie baabi wɔ hɔ ama Adaka a Awurade Apam a ɔne yɛn agyanom yɛɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a ɔyii wɔn firii Misraim no.”
22 And Solomon stands before the altar of YHWH, in front of all the assembly of Israel, and spreads his hands toward the heavens,
Na Salomo gyinaa hɔ, pagyaa ne nsa kyerɛɛ soro wɔ Awurade afɔrebukyia no anim wɔ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa anim.
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,
Ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, Onyame biara nni hɔ a ɔte sɛ wo wɔ ɔsoro anaa asase so. Wodi wo bɔhyɛ so, na woda wo dɔ a ɛnni awieeɛ adi kyerɛ wɔn a wɔtie wo, na wɔpɛ sɛ wɔyɛ wʼapɛdeɛ nso.
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.
Wo bɔ a wohyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no, woadi so. Wʼankasa wʼano na wode hyɛɛ bɔ no, na ɛnnɛ, wonam wʼankasa wo nsa so ama aba mu.
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.
“Afei, Ao Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ma ɛbɔ a wokɔɔ so hyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no mmra mu. Woka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ wʼasefoɔ bɔ wɔn bra yie, na wɔdi me mmara so sɛdeɛ woayɛ no a, wɔbɛdi Israel so ɔhene daa daa.’
26 And now, O God of Israel, please let Your word be established which You have spoken to Your servant, my father David.
Enti afei, Ao, Israel Onyankopɔn, di ɛbɔ a woahyɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ, mʼagya Dawid no so.
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!
“Na ɛyɛ ampa sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛtena asase so? Mpo, sɛ ɔsorosoro sua ma wo a, ɛdeɛn na yɛbɛka afa Asɔredan a masi yi ho!
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,
Tie me mpaeɛbɔ ne mʼadesrɛdeɛ, Ao, Awurade, me Onyankopɔn. Tie su a wo ɔsomfoɔ resu ne mpaeɛ a wo ɔsomfoɔ rebɔ akyerɛ wo ɛnnɛ.
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.
Wobɛhwɛ Asɔredan yi so awia ne anadwo; saa beaeɛ a woaka sɛ wode wo din bɛto so no. Wobɛtie mpaeɛ a mebɔ wɔ beaeɛ yi daa.
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,
Tie mʼahobrɛaseɛ ne nokorɛ abisadeɛ a ɛfiri me ne wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ nkyɛn, ɛberɛ a yɛrebɔ mpaeɛ wɔ beaeɛ ha no. Aane, tie yɛn firi soro a wote hɔ no, na sɛ wote a, fa kyɛ.
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,
“Sɛ obi fom obi, na ɛho hia sɛ ɔka ho ntam sɛ ɔnnim ho hwee wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛsi asɔredan mu no anim a,
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.
tie firi soro, na bu wʼasomfoɔ baanu no a ɛyɛ deɛ wɔabɔ no soboɔ no ne soboɔbɔfoɔ no ntam atɛn. Deɛ ɔdi fɔ no, twe nʼaso na gyaa deɛ ɔdi bem no.
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,
“Sɛ wɔdi wo nkurɔfoɔ Israel so, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔayɛ bɔne atia wo, na sɛ wɔdane ba wo nkyɛn, na wɔbɔ wo din frɛ wo, na wɔbɔ wo mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan mu ha a,
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.
ɛnneɛ, tie firi soro, na fa wɔn bɔne kyɛ wɔn, na ma wɔnsane nkɔ asase a wode maa wɔn agyanom no so.
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,
“Sɛ ɔsoro mu ato, na osuo ntɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, wo nkurɔfoɔ ayɛ bɔne atia wo, na afei, wɔbɔ mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan mu ha, bɔ wo din, ka wɔn bɔne, na wɔdane firi wɔn bɔne ho, ɛfiri sɛ, woatwe wɔn aso a,
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.
ɛnneɛ, tie firi soro, na fa wʼasomfoɔ, wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ bɔne no kyɛ. Kyerɛ wɔn deɛ ɛyɛ, na ma osuo ntɔ ngu wʼasase a wode ama wo nkurɔfoɔ sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ sononko no so.
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—
“Sɛ ɛkɔm si asase no so anaa ɔyaredɔm ba so anaa mfudeɛ nyarewa ba anaa ntutummɛ ne asa bɛgu mfudeɛ so, anaa wo nkurɔfoɔ atamfoɔ ba asase no so bɛtua wɔn nkuro a, sɛdeɛ ɔhaw no te biara no,
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,
na sɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ bɔ mpaeɛ wɔ wɔn haw ne awerɛhoɔ ho, na wɔpagya wɔn nsa wɔ asɔredan yi mu a,
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),
tie firi soro, deɛ wote hɔ, na fa kyɛ. Fa biribiara a ɛyɛ ma wo nkurɔfoɔ ma wɔn, na wo nko ara na wonim onipa akoma mu.
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.
Na wɔbɛsuro wo, na wɔanante wʼakwan so, berɛ dodoɔ a wɔte asase a wode maa yɛn agyanom yi so no.
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—
“Na sɛ ananafoɔ te wo nka, na wɔfiri akyirikyiri nsase so ba bɛsom wo din kɛseɛ no a,
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,
wɔbɛte wo nka, wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ akɛseɛ no ne wo tumi ho asɛm, na sɛ wɔbɔ mpaeɛ wɔ saa asɔredan yi mu a,
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.
tie firi soro hɔ a wote no, na yɛ wɔn abisadeɛ ma wɔn. Na ɛbɛma nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa ahunu, na wɔasuro wo, sɛdeɛ wo ara wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ yɛ no. Wɔn nso bɛhunu sɛ, wo din da saa Asɔredan a masi yi so.
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,
“Sɛ wohyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ ma wɔpue, kɔko tia wɔn atamfoɔ, na sɛ wɔbɔ mpaeɛ, srɛ Awurade fa saa kuro yi a woayi yi, ne saa Asɔredan a masi de wo din ato so yi ho a,
45 then You have heard their prayer and their supplication in the heavens, and have maintained their cause.
ɛnneɛ, tie wɔn mpaeɛbɔ firi soro, na yɛ wɔn abisadeɛ ma wɔn.
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;
“Sɛ wɔyɛ bɔne tia wo a, na hwan na ɔnyɛɛ bɔne da? Wo bo bɛfu wɔn, na woama wɔn atamfoɔ adi wɔn so, na wɔafa wɔn nnommum de wɔn akɔ ananasase a ɛwɔ akyiri anaasɛ ɛbɛn so.
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;
Na saa ahɔhosase no so, wɔde ahonu sane ba wo nkyɛn, bɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, ‘Yɛayɛ bɔne; yɛayɛ amumuyɛsɛm ne atirimuɔdensɛm,’
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:
Na sɛ wɔde wɔn akoma ne wɔn kra nyinaa dane ba wo nkyɛn, na wɔbɔ mpaeɛ ma asase a wode maa wɔn agyanom no ho, saa kuro a woayi ne saa Asɔredan a masi de ahyɛ wo din animuonyam yi a,
49 then You have heard in the heavens, the settled place of Your dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and have maintained their cause,
ɛnneɛ, tie wɔn mpaeɛbɔ firi soro baabi a wote hɔ. Yɛ wɔn apɛdeɛ ma wɔn,
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—
na fa wo nkurɔfoɔ a wɔayɛ bɔne atia wo no bɔne kyɛ wɔn. Ma wɔn nnommumfafoɔ nhunu wɔn mmɔbɔ,
51 for they [are] Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron—
ɛfiri sɛ, wɔyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ, wʼagyapadeɛ sononko a woyii wɔn firii Misraim dadenane fononoo mu.
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;
“Bue wʼani ma mʼabisadeɛ ne wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ abisadeɛ. Ɛberɛ biara a wɔbɛsu afrɛ wo no, tie wɔn, na gye wɔn so.
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.”
Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛberɛ a woyii yɛn agyanom firii Misraim no, Ao, Otumfoɔ Awurade, woka kyerɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Mose sɛ, woate Israel afiri aman a aka nyinaa a ɛwɔ asase yi so ho sɛ, wɔnyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ sononko.”
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,
Ɛberɛ a Salomo wiee saa mpaeɛbɔ ne nʼabisadeɛ a ɔde danee Awurade yi no, ɔgyinaa Awurade afɔrebukyia anim, baabi a na ɔtaa bu nkotodwe, na ɔpagya ne nsa kyerɛ soro.
55 and he stands and blesses all the assembly of Israel [with] a loud voice, saying,
Ɔgyinaa hɔ teaam, hyiraa Israelfoɔ no so sɛ,
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.
“Ayɛyie nka Awurade a wama ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ ɔhome, sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho bɔ no. Ɛbɔ nwanwa a ɔnam Mose so daa no adi no mu baako koraa nni hɔ a amma mu.
57 Our God YHWH is with us as He has been with our fathers; He does not forsake us nor leave us;
Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, nka yɛn ho sɛdeɛ ɔkaa yɛn agyanom ho no; ɔrennya yɛn da biara da.
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;
Ɔmma yɛnya ɔpɛ a yɛde bɛyɛ nʼapɛdeɛ wɔ biribiara mu, na yɛnni mmara ne ahyɛdeɛ a ɔhyɛ de maa yɛn agyanom no nyinaa so.
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,
Na ma ɔnkae saa nsɛm a magyina so de abɔ saa mpaeɛ wɔ Awurade anim yi daa awia ne anadwo, sɛdeɛ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, bɛtie me ne Israelfoɔ, na wayɛ deɛ ɛhia yɛn daa ama yɛn.
60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that He, YHWH, [is] God; there is none else;
Ma nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa nhunu sɛ Awurade yɛ Onyankopɔn, na onyame foforɔ biara nni hɔ.
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.”
Na mo a moyɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ no, nni Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, no nokorɛ daa. Monni ne mmara ne nʼahyɛdeɛ so daa, sɛdeɛ moyɛ no ɛnnɛ yi.”
62 And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before YHWH;
Na ɔhene no ne Israelfoɔ a wɔka ne ho no bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade.
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.
Salomo bɔɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Nʼafɔrebɔdeɛ no yɛ anantwie ɔpeduonu mmienu ne nnwan ɔpeha aduonu. Na ɔhene no ne Israel nyinaa daa Asɔredan no adi, de maa Awurade.
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.
Saa ɛda no ara, ɔhene no daa Asɔredan no adihɔ no mfimfini a ɛka Awurade Asɔredan ho no adi. Ɔbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ, atokoɔ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ho sradeɛ no wɔ hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, na kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Awurade anim no sua dodo sɛ ɛbɛtumi akora afɔrebɔdeɛ bebree.
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.
Na Salomo ne Israel nyinaa boom, dii Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ wɔ Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, anim. Nnipadɔm no firi Lebo Hamat wɔ atifi fam kɔsi Misraim asuwa wɔ anafoɔ fam, na wɔbaeɛ. Afahyɛ yi kɔɔ so ara nnafua dunan. Emu nnanson na wɔde daa afɔrebukyia no adi, ɛnna wɔde mu nnanson nso dii Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ no.
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.
Afahyɛ no twaam no, Salomo maa ɔmanfoɔ no kɔɔ wɔn kurom. Wɔrekɔ no nyinaa na wɔrehyira ɔhene no. Na wɔn nyinaa nyaa ahosɛpɛ ne ahotɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ne ne ɔsomfoɔ Dawid ne Israelfoɔ adi no yie.
