1 Kings 8

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ [houses] 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.

A LAILA hoakoakoa mai la o Solomona i na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, a me na poo a pau o na ohana, na haku iwaena o na makua o na mamo a Iseraela, io Solomona la ma Ierusalema, e lawe mai lakou i ka pahuberita o Iehova mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, oia o Ziona.

2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

Akoakoa mai la na kanaka o Iseraela a pau io Solomona la ke alii, i ka ahaaina, i ka malama Etanima, o ka hiku o ka malama.

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

A hele mai na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela, a kaikai ae la na kahuna i ka pahuberita.

4 And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; even these did the priests and the Levites bring up.

A lawe mai hoi lakou i ka pahuberita o Iehova, a me ka halelewa o ke anaina, a me na mea laa a pau iloko o ka halelewa, o ia mau mea ka na kahuna a me ka Levi i lawe mai ai.

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.

A o Solomona ke alii, a o ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, i akoakoa mai io na la, me ia pu lakou imua o ka pahuberita, e kaumaha ana i na hipa a me na bipi kauo, aole i haiia, aole e hiki ke heluia no ka lehulehu.

6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

A na na kahuna i hookomo i ka pahuberita o Iehova i kona wahi i kahi e olelo ai o ka hale, i kahi hoano loa, malalo ae hoi o na eheu o na keruba.

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

No ka mea, ua hohola na keruba i na eheu elua maluna o kahi o ka pahuberita, a uhi iho la na keruba i ka pahuberita, a me kona mau laau auamo, maluna ae.

8 And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the holy place before the oracle; but they were not seen without: and there they are, unto this day.

Unuhi ae la lakou i na laau auamo, i ikeia na poo o na laau auamo mai ka mea hoano mai ma ka mua o kahi e olelo ai; aole laua i ikeia mawaho mai, a malaila no laua a hiki i keia la.

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.

Aohe mea maloko o ka pahuberita, o na papa pohaku elua wale no a Mose i hahao ai ilaila ma Horeba, kahi i hana'i o Iehova i ka berita me na mamo a Iseraela i ko lakou puka ana mai, mai ka aina mai o Aigupita.

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,

Eia kekahi, i ka puka ana mai o na kahuna mailoko mai o kahi hoano, piha ae la i ke ao ka hale o Iehova;

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.

Aole i hiki i na kahuna ke ku e lawelawe, no ke ao; no ka mea, ua piha ko Iehova hale i ka nani o Iehova.

12 Then spake Solomon, The LORD hath said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

Alaila olelo ae la Solomona, Ua olelo mai o Iehova e noho oia maloko o ka pouli loa.

13 I have surely built thee an house of habitation, a place for thee to dwell in for ever.

Ua hana io ae nei no wau i hale e noho ai nou, kahi kuonoono nou e noho mau loa'i.

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

Haliu mai la ke alii i kona maka; a hoomaikai mai i ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, e ku ana no hoi ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela;

15 And he said, Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, which spake with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,

I aku la hoi oia, E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i olelo mai me kona waha ia Davida i o'u makuakane, a ua hooko mai nei me kona lima, i ka i ana mai,

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 there; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.

Mai ka la mai i lawe mai ai au i ko'u poe kanaka ka Iseraela mai loko mai o Aigupita, aole au i koho ae i kulanakauhale no loko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela e kukulu i ka hale e noho ai ko'u inoa maloko; aka, ua koho no au ia Davida i luna no ko'u lahuikanaka Iseraela.

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

A iloko iho no o ka naau o Davida ko'u makuakane ka manao e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela.

18 But the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well that it was in thine heart:

A olelo mai la hoi o Iehova ia Davida ko'u makuakane, No ka mea, maloko aku no o kou naau e kukulu i hale no ko'u inoa, he pono oe i kou manao ana pela iloko ou.

19 nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.

Aka, aole oe o kukulu mai i ka hale: o kau keiki nae, ka mea e puka mai, mailoko mai o kou mau puhaka, oia ke kukulu mai i ka hale no ko'u inoa.

20 And the LORD hath established his word that he spake; for 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 the house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.

A ua hooko mai nei no Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai, a ua ku ae nei au ma kahi o Davida ko'u makuakane, a ke noho nei au ma ka noho alii o ka Iseraela e like me ka Iehova olelo hoopomaikai, a ua kukulu ae nei au i ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.

21 And there have I set 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.

A hana aku no wau i wahi no ka pahuberita, maloko olaila ka berita o Iehova ana i hana'i me ko makou mau kupuna, i kona lawe ana mai ia lakou mailoko mai o ka aina o Aigupita.

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:

Ku ae la hoi o Solomona mamua o ke kuahu o Iehova ma ke alo o ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae i kona mau lima i ka lani.

23 and he said, O LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath; who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants, that walk before thee with all their heart:

I aku la oia, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aohe akua ma ka lani iluna, aole hoi ma ka honua ilalo nei, e like me oe ka mea nana e malama mai i ka berita a me ke aloha me kau mau kauwa ka poe e hele ana ma kou alo me ko lakou naau a pau;

24 who hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou didst promise him: yea, thou spakest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.

Ka mea nana i kaohi me Davida ko'u makuakane i ka mea au i olelo hoopomaikai mai ai ia ia; ua olelo hoi oe me kou waha, a ua hooko ae nei oe me kou lima, me nei i neia la.

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

Ano hoi, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e kaohi oe me kau kauwa o Davida ko'u makuakane, i ka mea au i olelo hoopomaikai ai ia ia, i ka i ana mai, Aole oe e nele i ke kanaka imua o ko'u alo, e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o ka Iseraela, ke malama kau mau keiki i ko lakou hele ana, e hele imua o'u, me oe i hele ai imua o'u;

26 Now therefore, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be verified, which thou spakest unto thy servant David my father.

Ano hoi, e ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooiaioia mai kau olelo, au e olelo mai ai i kau kauwa ia Davida ko'u makuakane.

27 But will God in very deed dwell on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded!

Aka hoi, e noho io mai anei ke Akua ma ka honua anei? Aia hoi! aole e hiki i na lani a me na lani o na lani ke apo ia oe; aole loa hoi keia hale a'u i kukulu ae nei.

28 Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:

Aka hoi, e maliu mai oe i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i kona nonoi ana, e Iehova ko'u Akua, e hoolohe mai i ka ulono ana a me ka pule a kau kauwa nei e haipule ai imua o kou alo i keia la;

29 that thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place whereof thou hast said, My name shall be there: to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall pray toward this place.

E nana mau mai kou mau maka i keia hale i ka po a me ke ao, i kahi au i olelo mai ai, Malaila auanei ko'u inoa, i hoolohe mai hoi oe i ka pule a kau kauwa e haipule ai i keia wahi.

30 And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place: yea, hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place; and when thou hearest, forgive.

A e hoolohe mai oe i ka nonoi ana o kau kauwa nei, a o kou poe kanaka hoi o Iseraela, i ka wa e pule ai lakou i keia wahi; a e hoolohe mai oe ma kou wahi e noho ai ma ka lani, a lohe oe, e kala mai.

31 If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and he come [and] swear before thine altar in this house:

Ina e hana hewa kekahi kanaka i kona hoalauna, a kau ka hoohiki ana maluna ona i hoohiki oia, a hiki mai ia hoohiki ana ma ke alo o kou kuahu maloko o keia hale;

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

Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani, a e hana, a e hooponopono mai i kau mau kauwa, e hoahewa ana i ka mea hewa, e hooili ana i kona aoao maluna o kona poo, a e hoapono ana i ka mea pono, e haawi ia ia e like me kona pono.

33 When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee; if they turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication unto thee in this house:

Aia pepehiia iho kou poe kanaka Iseraela imua o ka enemi, no ka lakou hana hewa ana'ku ia oe, a huli hou lakou ia oe, a hooiaio i kou inoa, a e pule hoi me ke nonoi aku ia oe i keia hale;

34 then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest unto their fathers;

Alaila, e hoolohe oe ma ka lani, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka Iseraela, a e lawe hou mai oe ia lakou i ka aina au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou mau makua.

35 When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou dost afflict them:

Aia hoopaaia ka lani, aole hoi e ua, no ka lakou hana hewa ana ia oe; ina e pule lakou i keia wahi, a e hooiaio i ko inoa, a e haalele hoi i ko lakou mau hewa i kou hookaumaha ana ia lakou,

36 then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou teachest them the good way wherein they should walk; and send rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.

Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka Iseraela, i ao mai oe ia lakou i ka aoao maikai e hele ai lakou, a e haawi mai hoi i ka ua maluna iho o ka aina au i haawi mai ai i waiwai no kou poe kanaka.

37 If there be in the land famine, if there be pestilence, if there be blasting [or] mildew, locust [or] caterpiller; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there be;

Ina he wi ma ka aina, ina he mai ahulau, ina he malili, he mae wale, he uhini, a ina he enuhe; a ina e hoopilikiaia e ka enemi ma ka aina o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, ina he ino, a he mai;

38 what prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, [or] by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:

A ina e pule me ke nonoi aku kekahi kanaka, o kou poe kanaka a pau paha o ka Iseraela, ka mea i ike i ke ino o kona naau iho, a e hapai i kona mau lima i keia hale;

39 then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and render unto every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men; )

Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani kou wahi e noho ai, a e kala, mai, a e hana, a e haawi i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona mau aoao, ua ikeia kona naau e oe; (no ka mea, o oe, o oe wale no ka i ike i na naau o na keiki a pau o kanaka; )

40 that they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

I makau lakou ia oe i na la a pau e ola'i lakou ma ka ili o ka aina au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou mau makua.

41 Moreover concerning the stranger, that is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name’s sake;

A, no ka malihini hoi, aole o kou poe kanaka Iseraela, aka, ua hele mai, mai ka aina loihi aku, no kou inoa;

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

(No ka mea, e lohe no lakou i kou inoa nui, a me kou lima ikaika, a me kou lima kakauha; ) aia hele mai ia a e pule i keia hale;

43 hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; that all the peoples of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as doth thy people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.

Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani kou wahi e noho ai, a e hana e like me ka mea a pau a ka malihini i nonoi ai ia oe; i ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua i kou inoa, e weli weli ia oe e like me kou poe kanaka Iseraela; a i ike hoi ua kapaia ma kou inoa keia hale a'u i kukulu ae nei.

44 If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, by whatsoever way thou shalt send them, and they pray unto the LORD toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name:

A ina e hele aku kou poe kanaka e kaua i ko lakou enemi, ma kou wahi e hoouna aku ai ia lakou, a e pule aku lakou ia Iehova i ke kulanakauhale au i koho ai, a i ka hale a'u i kukulu ae nei no kou inoa;

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

Alaila e hoolohe oe i ka lakou pule me ko lakou nonoi ana, a e kokua mamuli o ko lakou pono.

46 If they sin against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not, ) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive unto the land of the enemy, far off or near;

Ina e hana hewa lakou ia oe, (no ka mea, aole kanaka hana hewa ole, ) a huhu mai oe ia lakou, a haawi aku oe ia lakou imua o ka enemi, a lawe pio aku lakou ia lakou i ka aina o ko lakou enemi, he loihi aku paha, he kokoke mai paha;

47 yet if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they are carried captive, and turn again, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captive, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have dealt wickedly;

Ina e manao lakou i ko lakou naau, ma ka aina i lawe pio ia'ku ai lakou, a mihi lakou, a e nonoi aku ia oe ma ka aina o ka poe e lawe pio aku ia lakou, e i ana, Ua hewa makou, a ua hana ino, ua lawehala makou:

48 if they return unto thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies, which carried them captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:

A e hoi mai lakou ia oe me ko lakou naau a pau, a me ko lakou uhane a pau, ma ka aina o ko lakou poe enemi naua lakou i alakai pio aku, a e pule aku ia oe i ko lakou aina au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou mau makua, i ke kulanakauhale au i koho mai ai, a i ka hale a'u i kukulu ae nei no kou inoa;

49 then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place, and maintain their cause;

Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani kou wahi e noho ai, i ka lakou pule a me ko lakou nonoi ana, a e kokua mamuli o ko lakou pono.

50 and forgive thy people which have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against thee; and give them compassion before those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them:

A e kala mai i kou poe kanaka i hana hewa aku ia oe, a me ko lakou lawehala ana a pau i hana hewa aku ai lakou ia oe, a e haawi mai ia lakou i ke aloha, imua o ka poe i lawe pio aku ia lakou, i aloha mai lakou ia lakou nei;

51 For they be thy people, and thine inheritance which thou broughtest forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron:

No ka mea, o kou poe kanaka, a o kou waiwai hoi lakou au i lawe ai mai Aigupita mai, mai waena konu o ka umu no ka hao:

52 that thine eyes may be open unto the supplication of thy servant, and unto the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken unto them whensoever they cry unto thee.

I kaakaa kou mau maka i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i ka nonoi ana o kou poe kanaka, i luhe mai i ka mea a pau a lakou e noi ai ia oe.

53 For thou didst separate them from among all the peoples of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spakest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord GOD.

No ka mea, ua hookaawale mai oe ia lakou mai na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua, i hooilina nou, me Kau i olelo mai ai ma ka lima o Mose o kau kauwa, i ka wa i lawe mai ai oe i ko makou mau kupuna, mai Aigupita mai, e Iehova ka Haku.

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 forth toward heaven.

Eia hoi keia, i ka pau ana'e o ka Solomona haipule ana i keia pule, me keia nonoi ana a pau ia Iehova, ku ae la ia iluna mai mua mai o ke kuahu o Iehova, mai ke kukuli ana ma kona mau kuli me kona mau lima i hohola ae i ka lani.

55 And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,

Ku mai la ia, a hoomaikai mai la i ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela me ka leo nui,

56 Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.

E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova ka mea nana i haawi mai i ka maha i kona poe kanaka Iseraela, e like me kana olelo hoopomaikai a pau; aole haule kekahi hua o kana olelo hoopomaikai hemolele a pau ana i olelo ai ma ka lima o Mose kana kauwa.

57 The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:

E noho Iehova ko kakou Akua me kakou e like me ia i noho ai me ko kakou mau makua; aole e haalele mai ia kakou, aole hoi e kiola ia kakou.

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.

E hoohaliu ae oia i ko kakou naau ia ia e hele ma kona mau aoao a pau, a malama i kana mau kauoha, a me kona mau kanawai, a me kona mau kapu, ana i kauoha mai ai i ko kakou poe kupuna.

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, as every day shall require:

A o keia mau olelo a'u i pule ai au ma ke alo o Iehova, e kokoke ae ia io Iehova la ko kakou Akua i ke ao a me ka po, e kokua mau oia mamuli o ka pono o kana kauwa, a me ka pono o kona poe kanaka Iseraela, ma ka mea o ka la i kona la iho;

60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD, he is God; there is none else.

I ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua, o Iehova ke Akua, aohe e ae.

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.

Nolaila, e hemolele mai ko oukou mau naau ia Iehova ko kakou Akua, e hele ma kona mau kanawai, a e malama hoi i kana mau kauoha, me ia i keia la,

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

Kaumaha aku la ke alii, me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau, i na mohai ma ke alo o Iehova.

63 And Solomon offered for the 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.

Kaumaha aku la hoi o Solomona i ka alana mohnihoomalu, ana i kaumaha ai no Iehova, he iwakalua kumamalua tausani bipi kauo, a he haneri me ka iwakalua tausani hipa: pela i hoolaa aku ai o Solomona, a me na mamo a pau a Iseraela, i ka hale o Iehova.

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 the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brasen 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.

Ia la no, i hoolaa ai ke alii i ka waena o ka pahale ma ke alo o ka hale o Iehova; no ka mea, malaila i kaumaha ai oia i na mohaikuni, a me na mohaiai, a me ke kaikea o na mohaihoomalu; no ka mea, o ke kuahu keleawe ka mea ma ke alo o Iehova, he uuku ia i ole ai e hiki ia ia na mohaikuni, a me na mohaiai, a me ke kaikea o na mohaihoomalu.

65 So Solomon held the feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.

Ia manawa, ahaaina ae la o Solomona, a me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau, he anaina nui, mai ke komo ana o Hamota a hiki i ka muliwai o Aigupita, ma ke alo o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, ehiku la, a ehiku la, he umikumamaha mau la.

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 shewed unto David his servant, and to Israel his people.

A i ka walu o ka la hookuu ae la oia i na kanaka; a hoomaikai aku la lakou i ke alii, a hele aku i, ko lakou mau hale lole, e hauoli ana me ka olioli o ka naau no ka pono a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai no Davida i kana kauwa, a me ka Iseraela i kona poe kanaka.
