1 Kings 8

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the ancestral leaders of the children of Israel, to king Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the City of David, which is Zion.

Tada sabra Solomun starješine Izrailjeve i sve glavare plemenske, knezove domova otaèkih sinova Izrailjevijeh, k sebi u Jerusalim da se prenese kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega iz grada Davidova, a to je Sion.

2 All the men of Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

I skupiše se k caru Solomunu svi ljudi Izrailjevi mjeseca Etanima na praznik, a taj je mjesec sedmi.

3 All the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.

I kad doðoše sve starješine Izrailjeve, podigoše sveštenici kovèeg;

4 They brought up the ark of the LORD, and the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; and the priests and the Levites brought them up.

I prenesoše kovèeg Gospodnji i šator od sastanka i sve sude svete što bjehu u šatoru; prenesoše ih sveštenici i Leviti.

5 King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who were assembled to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and cattle, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

A car Solomun i sav zbor Izrailjev, koji se sabra k njemu, prinesoše s njim pred kovèegom ovaca i goveda toliko da se ne mogaše ni izbrojiti ni proraèunati od mnoštva.

6 The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.

I unesoše sveštenici kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega na njegovo mjesto, u unutrašnji dom, u svetinju nad svetinjama, pod krila heruvimima.

7 For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.

Jer heruvimima bijahu raširena krila nad mjestom gdje æe stajati kovèeg, i zaklanjahu heruvimi kovèeg i poluge njegove ozgo.

8 The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the holy place before the inner sanctuary; but they were not seen outside. And there they are to this day.

I povukoše mu poluge tako da se krajevi viðahu u svetinji na prednjoj strani svetinje nad svetinjama, ali se napolje ne viðahu; i ondje ostaše do današnjega dana.

9 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets 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.

U kovèegu ne bješe ništa osim dvije ploèe kamene, koje metnu u nj Mojsije na Horivu, kad Gospod uèini zavjet sa sinovima Izrailjevijem pošto izidoše iz zemlje Misirske.

10 It came to pass, when the priests had come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,

A kad sveštenici izidoše iz svetinje, oblak napuni dom Gospodnji,

11 so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD.

Te ne mogahu sveštenici stajati da služe od oblaka; jer se slave Gospodnje napuni dom Gospodnji.

12 Then Solomon said, "The LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick cloud.

Tada reèe Solomun: Gospod je rekao da æe nastavati u mraku.

13 I have surely built you a house of habitation, a place for you to dwell in forever."

Sazidah dom tebi za stan, mjesto, da u njemu nastavaš dovijeka.

14 The king turned his face about, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: and all the assembly of Israel stood.

I okrenuvši se licem svojim car blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, a sav zbor Izrailjev stajaše.

15 He said, "Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David your father, and has with his hand fulfilled it, saying,

I reèe: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je govorio svojim ustima Davidu ocu mojemu i ispunio rukom svojom, govoreæi:

16 'Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, so that my name might be there; nor did I choose anyone to be a leader over my people Israel. But I have chosen Jerusalem, so that my name may be there, and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.'

Od onoga dana kad izvedoh iz Misira narod svoj Izrailja ne izabrah nijednoga grada meðu svijem plemenima Izrailjevijem da se sazida dom gdje bi bilo ime moje, nego izabrah Davida da bude nad narodom mojim Izrailjem.

17 "Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.

I naumi David otac moj da sazida dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.

18 But the LORD said to David my father, 'Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart.

Ali Gospod reèe Davidu ocu mojemu: što si naumio sazidati dom imenu mojemu, dobro si uèinio što si to naumio;

19 Nevertheless, you shall not build the house; but your son who shall come forth out of your body, he shall build the house for my name.'

Ali neæeš ti sazidati toga doma, nego sin tvoj, koji æe izaæi iz bedara tvojih, on æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu.

20 The LORD has established his word that he spoke; for I have risen up in the place of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.

I tako ispuni Gospod rijeè svoju koju reèe; jer ustah na mjesto oca svojega Davida, i sjedoh na prijesto Izrailjev, kao što reèe Gospod, i sazidah ovaj dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.

21 There I have set a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt."

I odredih ovdje mjesto kovèegu u kom je zavjet Gospodnji što je uèinio s ocima našim kad ih je izveo iz zemlje Misirske.

22 Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven. Now Solomon had made a bronze scaffold, eight feet and seven inches long, and eight feet and seven inches broad, and five feet and two inches high, and had set it in the midst of the court; and on it he stood, and kneeled down on his knees before all the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven.

Potom stade Solomun pred oltar Gospodnji pred svijem zborom Izrailjevijem, i podiže ruke svoje k nebu,

23 And he said, "LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like you, in heaven above, or on earth beneath; keeping covenant and loving kindness with your servants, who walk before you with all their heart;

I reèe: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! nema Boga takoga kakav si ti gore na nebu ni dolje na zemlji, koji èuvaš zavjet i milost slugama svojim, koje hode pred tobom svijem srcem svojim;

24 who have kept with your servant David my father that which you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is this day.

Koji si ispunio sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao; što si ustima svojim rekao to si rukom svojom ispunio, kao što se vidi danas.

25 Now therefore, may the LORD, the God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that which you have promised him, saying, 'There shall not fail you a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your children take heed to their way, to walk before me as you have walked before me.'

Sada dakle, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, drži sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao govoreæi: neæe ti nestati èovjeka ispred mene koji bi sjedio na prijestolu Izrailjevu, samo ako sinovi tvoji ušèuvaju put svoj hodeæi preda mnom, kao što si ti hodio preda mnom.

26 "Now therefore, LORD, God of Israel, please let your word be verified, which you spoke to your servant David my father.

Sada dakle, Bože Izrailjev, neka se potvrdi rijeè tvoja koju si rekao sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu.

27 But will God in very deed dwell on the earth? Look, heaven and the heaven of heavens can't contain you; how much less this house that I have built.

Ali hoæe li doista Bog stanovati na zemlji? Eto, nebo i nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu te obuhvatiti, akamoli ovaj dom što ga sazidah?

28 Yet have respect for the prayer of your servant, and for his petition, LORD my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which your servant prays before you this day;

Ali pogledaj na molitvu sluge svojega i na molbu njegovu, Gospode Bože moj, èuj viku i molitvu, kojim ti se danas moli sluga tvoj;

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;' to listen to the prayer which your servant shall pray toward this place.

Da budu oèi tvoje otvorene nad domom ovijem dan i noæ, nad ovijem mjestom, za koje si rekao: tu æe biti ime moje; da èuješ molitvu kojom æe se moliti sluga tvoj na ovom mjestu.

30 Listen to the petition of your servant, and of your people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place. Yes, hear in heaven, your dwelling place; and when you hear, forgive.

Èuj molbu sluge svojega i naroda svojega Izrailja, kojom æe se moliti na ovom mjestu; èuj s mjesta gdje stanuješ, s neba, èuj, i smiluj se.

31 "If a man sins against his neighbor, and an oath is laid on him to cause him to swear, and he comes and swear before your altar in this house;

Kad ko zgriješi bližnjemu svojemu te mu se da zakletva da se zakune, i zakletva doðe pred tvoj oltar u ovom domu,

32 then hear in heaven, and do, and judge your servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way on his own head, and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

Ti èuj s neba, i uèini i sudi slugama svojim, osuðujuæi krivca i djela njegova obraæajuæi na njegovu glavu, a pravoga pravdajuæi i plaæajuæi mu po pravdi njegovoj.

33 "When your people Israel are struck down before the enemy, because they have sinned against you; if they turn again to you, and confess your name, and pray and make petition to you in this house:

Kad razbiju neprijatelji narod tvoj Izrailja zato što ti zgriješe, pa se obrate k tebi i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu, i pomole ti se i zamole te u ovom domu,

34 then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave to their fathers.

Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh narodu svojemu Izrailju, i dovedi ih opet u zemlju koju si dao ocima njihovijem.

35 "When the sky 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 punish them:

Kad se zatvori nebo, te ne bude dažda zato što zgriješe tebi, pa ti se zamole na ovom mjestu i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu, i od grijeha se svojega obrate, kad ih namuèiš,

36 then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk; and send rain on your land, which you have given to your people for an inheritance.

Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh slugama svojim i narodu svojemu Izrailju pokazav im put dobri kojim æe hoditi, i pusti dažd na zemlju svoju, koju si dao narodu svojemu u našljedstvo.

37 "If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight, mildew, locust or caterpillar; if their enemy besieges them in the land of their gates; whatever plague, whatever sickness there is;

Kad bude glad u zemlji, kad bude pomor, suša, medljika, skakavci, gusjenice, ili kad ga pritijesni neprijatelj njegov u zemlji njegovoj vlastitoj, ili kako god zlo, kaka god bolest,

38 whatever prayer and petition is made by any man, or by all your people Israel, who shall each know the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:

Svaku molbu i svaku molitvu, koja bude od koga god èovjeka ili od svega tvojega naroda Izrailja, ko pozna muku srca svojega i podigne ruke svoje u ovom domu,

39 then hear in heaven, your dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know; (for you, even you only, know the hearts of all the children of humankind; )

Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i smiluj se i uèini i podaj svakome po svijem putovima njegovijem, koje znaš u srcu njegovu; jer ti sam znaš srca svijeh sinova èovjeèijih;

40 that they may fear you all the days that they live in the land which you gave to our fathers.

Da te se boje dokle su god živi na zemlji koju si dao ocima našim.

41 "Moreover concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for your name's sake

I stranac, koji nije od tvojega naroda Izrailja, nego doðe iz daljnje zemlje imena tvojega radi,

42 (for they shall hear of your great name, and of your mighty hand, and of your outstretched arm); when he shall come and pray toward this house;

Jer æe se èuti za ime tvoje veliko i za ruku tvoju krjepku i mišicu tvoju podignutu) kad doðe i pomoli se u ovom domu,

43 then hear in heaven, your dwelling place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to you for; that all the peoples of the earth may know your name, and fear you, as do your people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by your name.

Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i uèini sve za što povièe k tebi onaj stranac, da bi poznali ime tvoje svi narodi na zemlji i bojali se tebe kao narod tvoj Izrailj, i da bi znali da je ime tvoje prizvano nad ovijem domom, koji sazidah.

44 "If your people go out to battle against their enemy, by whatever way you shall send them, and they pray to the LORD toward the city which you have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for your name;

Kad narod tvoj izide na vojsku na neprijatelja svojega putem kojim ga pošlješ, i pomole se Gospodu obrativši se ka gradu, koji si izabrao, i k domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,

45 then hear in heaven their prayer and their petition, and maintain their cause.

Èuj s neba molbu njihovu, i podaj im pravicu.

46 If they sin against you (for there is no man who doesn't sin), and you are angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to the land of the enemy, far off or near;

Kad ti zgriješe, jer nema èovjeka koji ne griješi, i razgnjevivši se na njih daš ih neprijateljima njihovijem, te ih zarobe i odvedu u zemlju neprijateljsku daleko ili blizu,

47 yet if they shall repent in the land where they are carried captive, and repent and make petition to you in the land of those who carried them captive, saying, 'We have sinned, and have done perversely; we have dealt wickedly;'

Ako se dozovu u zemlji u koju budu odvedeni u ropstvo, i obrate se i stanu ti se moliti u zemlji onijeh koji ih zarobiše, i reku: sagriješismo i zlo uèinismo, skrivismo,

48 if they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies, who carried them captive, and pray to you toward their land, which you gave to their fathers, the city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your name:

I tako se obrate k tebi svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom u zemlji neprijatelja svojih, koji ih zarobe, i pomole ti se okrenuvši se k zemlji svojoj, koju si dao ocima njihovijem, ka gradu, koji si izabrao, i k domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,

49 then hear their prayer and their petition in heaven, your dwelling place, and maintain their cause;

Tada èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, molbu njihovu i molitvu njihovu, i podaj im pravicu,

50 and forgive your people who have sinned against you, and all their transgressions in which they have transgressed against you; and give them compassion before those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them

I oprosti narodu svojemu što ti budu zgriješili, i sve prijestupe kojima ti budu prestupili, i umilostivi im one koji ih zarobe da se smiluju na njih.

51 (for they are your people, and your inheritance, which you brought out of Egypt, from the midst of the iron furnace);

Jer su tvoj narod i tvoje našljedstvo, koje si izveo iz Misira, isred peæi gvozdene.

52 that your eyes and your ears may be open to the petition of your servant, and to the petition of your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they cry to you.

Neka budu oèi tvoje otvorene na molbu sluge tvojega i na molbu naroda tvojega Izrailja, i èuj ih kad te god prizovu.

53 For you separated them from among all the peoples of the earth, to be your inheritance, as you spoke by Moses your servant, when you brought our fathers out of Egypt, Lord GOD."

Jer si ih ti odvojio sebi za našljedstvo od svijeh naroda na zemlji, kao što si rekao preko Mojsija sluge svojega, kad si izveo oce naše iz Misira, Gospode, Gospode!

54 It was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and petition to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread forth toward heaven.

A kad Solomun moleæi se Gospodu svrši svu ovu molbu i molitvu, usta ispred oltara Gospodnjega, gdje bješe klekao i ruke svoje podigao k nebu;

55 He stood, and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying,

I stojeæi blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, glasom velikim govoreæi:

56 "Blessed be the LORD, who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised. There has not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by Moses his servant.

Blagosloven da je Gospod koji je smirio narod svoj Izrailja, kao što je govorio; nije izostala nijedna rijeè od svijeh dobrijeh rijeèi njegovijeh, koje je govorio preko Mojsija sluge svojega.

57 May the LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers. Let him not leave us, nor forsake us;

Da Gospod Bog naš bude s nama kao što je bio s ocima našim, da nas ne ostavi i ne napusti.

58 that he may incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his ordinances, which he commanded our fathers.

Nego neka prigne srce naše k sebi da bismo hodili svijem putovima njegovijem i držali zapovijesti njegove i uredbe njegove i zakone njegove, što je zapovjedio ocima našim.

59 Let these my words, with which I have made petition before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, that he may maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel, as every day shall require;

I neka budu ove rijeèi moje, kojima se molih Gospodu, blizu Gospoda Boga našega dan i noæ, da bi davao pravicu sluzi svojemu i narodu svojemu Izrailju u svako doba;

60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD, he is God. There is no other.

Da bi poznali svi narodi na zemlji da je Gospod sam Bog i da nema drugoga.

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."

I neka srce vaše bude cijelo prema Gospodu Bogu našem, da hodite po uredbama njegovijem i držite zapovijesti njegove kao danas.

62 The king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.

Tada car i sav Izrailj s njim prinesoše žrtve pred Gospodom.

63 Solomon offered for the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to the LORD, two and twenty thousand head of cattle, and one hundred twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD.

I Solomun prinese na žrtvu zahvalnu, koju prinese Gospodu, dvadeset i dvije tisuæe volova i sto i dvadeset tisuæa ovaca. Tako posvetiše dom Gospodnji car i svi sinovi Izrailjevi.

64 The same day the king made the middle of the court holy that was before the house of the LORD; for there he offered the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too little to receive the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings.

U taj dan posveti car sredinu trijema koji je pred domom Gospodnjim; jer ondje prinese žrtve paljenice i dare i pretilinu od žrtava zahvalnijeh; jer mjedeni oltar koji bijaše pred Gospodom bijaše malen i ne mogahu na nj stati žrtve paljenice i dari i pretilina od žrtava zahvalnijeh.

65 So Solomon held the feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great assembly, from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi of Egypt, before the LORD our God in the house which he built, eating and drinking and rejoicing before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days; fourteen days.

I u to vrijeme praznova Solomun praznik i sav Izrailj s njim, sabor velik od ulaska u Emat do potoka Misirskoga, pred Gospodom Bogom našim, sedam dana i opet sedam dana, to je èetrnaest dana.

66 And on the eighth day he sent the people away; and they blessed the king, and went to their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had shown to David his servant, and to Israel his people.

A u osmi dan otpusti narod; i blagosloviše cara i otidoše k šatorima svojim radujuæi se i veseleæi se u srcu za sve dobro što uèini Gospod Davidu sluzi svojemu i Izrailju narodu svojemu.
