1 Kings 8
1 Then he called together Solomon [the] elders of Israel all [the] chiefs of the tribes [the] leaders of the fathers of [the] people of Israel to the king Solomon Jerusalem to bring up [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh from [the] city of David that [is] Zion.
Entonces Salomón convocó ante él, en Jerusalén, a los ancianos de Israel, incluidos todos los jefes de las tribus y los jefes de familia de los israelitas. Les ordenó que subieran con ellos el Arca del Pacto del Señor desde Sión, la Ciudad de David.
2 And they assembled to the king Solomon every person of Israel in [the] month of Ethanim at the festival that [was] the month seventh.
Todos los hombres de Israel se reunieron ante el rey Salomón en la fiesta que se celebra en el séptimo mes, el mes de Etanim.
3 And they came all [the] elders of Israel and they lifted the priests the ark.
Cuando todos los ancianos de Israel se reunieron, los sacerdotes recogieron el Arca y trajeron el Arca del Señor y la Tienda del Encuentro con todos sus objetos sagrados.
4 And they brought up [the] ark of Yahweh and [the] tent of meeting and all [the] utensils of holiness which [were] in the tent and they brought up them the priests and the Levites.
Los sacerdotes y los levitas los subieron.
5 And the king Solomon and all [the] congregation of Israel who were gathered to him with him before the ark [were] sacrificing sheep and cattle which not they were counted and not they were numbered from multitude.
Delante del Arca, el rey Salomón y toda la congregación de Israel que se había reunido allí con él sacrificaron muchísimas ovejas y bueyes, ¡tan numerosos que no se podían contar!
6 And they brought the priests [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh to place its to [the] innermost room of the house to [the] holy place of the holy places to under [the] wings of the cherubim.
Luego los sacerdotes llevaron el Arca del Pacto del Señor a su lugar en el santuario interior del Templo, el Lugar Santísimo, debajo de las alas de los querubines.
7 For the cherubim [were] spreading out wings to [the] place of the ark and they covered the cherubim over the ark and over poles its from to above.
Los querubines desplegaban sus alas sobre el lugar donde estaba el Arca, cubriendo el Arca y las varas para transportarla.
8 And they were long the poles and they were visible [the] heads of the poles from the holy place on [the] face of the innermost room and not they were visible the outside towards and they have been there until the day this.
Las varas eran tan largas que los extremos podían verse desde el Lugar Santo, frente al santuario interior, pero no desde fuera. Allí están hasta el día de hoy.
9 There not [was] in the ark only [the] two [the] tablets of stone which he placed there Moses at Horeb where he made Yahweh with [the] people of Israel when came out they from [the] land of Egypt.
No había nada en el Arca, aparte de las dos tablas de piedra que Moisés había colocado en ella en Horeb, donde el Señor había hecho un acuerdo con los israelitas después de salir de la tierra de Egipto.
10 And it was when came out the priests from the holy place and the cloud it filled [the] house of Yahweh.
Cuando los sacerdotes salieron del Lugar Santo, la nube llenó el Templo del Señor.
11 And not they were able the priests to stand to serve because of the cloud for it filled [the] glory of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.
Por causa de la nube, los sacerdotes no pudieron quedarse allí para realizar su servicio, pues la gloria del Señor había llenado el Templo del Señor.
12 Then he said Solomon Yahweh he has said to dwell in thick darkness.
Entonces Salomón dijo: “Señor, tú dijiste que vivirías en la espesa nube.
13 Certainly I have built a house of loftiness for you a place to dwell in you forever.
Ahora he construido para ti un Templo majestuoso, un lugar donde podrás vivir para siempre”.
14 And he turned the king face his and he blessed all [the] assembly of Israel and all [the] assembly of Israel [was] standing.
El rey se volvió hacia toda la asamblea de Israel que estaba de pie y los bendijo,
15 And he said [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he spoke with mouth his with David father my and with hand his he has fulfilled saying.
diciendo: “Alabado sea el Señor, el Dios de Israel, que con su propio poder ha cumplido la promesa que hizo a mi padre David cuando dijo:
16 Since the day when I brought out people my Israel from Egypt not I chose a city from all [the] tribes of Israel to build a house to be name my there and I have chosen David to be over people my Israel.
‘Desde el día en que saqué a mi pueblo Israel de Egipto no he elegido ninguna ciudad de las tribus de Israel como lugar para construir un Templo en mi honor. Pero he elegido a David como rey de mi pueblo Israel’.
17 And it was with [the] heart of David father my to build a house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
“Mi padre David quería realmente construir un Templo para honrar al Señor, el Dios de Israel.
18 And he said Yahweh to David father my because that it was with heart your to build a house for name my you did well that it was with heart your.
Pero el Señor le dijo a mi padre David: ‘Tu viste el deseo de construir un Templo para honrarme, y fue bueno que realmente quisieras hacerlo.
19 Only you not you will build the house that except son your who comes out from loins your he he will build the house for name my.
Pero no serás tú quien construya este Templo, sino tu hijo que te va a nacer: él construirá el Templo para honrarme’.
20 And he has established Yahweh word his which he spoke and I have arisen in place of David father my and I have sat on [the] throne of Israel just as he spoke Yahweh and I have built the house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
“Ahora el Señor ha cumplido la promesa que hizo. He sucedido a mi padre David y me he sentado en el trono de Israel, tal como el Señor había prometido. He construido el Templo para honrar al Señor, el Dios de Israel.
21 And I have set up there a place for the ark where [is] there [the] covenant of Yahweh which he made with ancestors our when brought out he them from [the] land of Egypt.
He dispuesto allí un lugar para el Arca, que contiene el pacto del Señor que hizo con nuestros antepasados cuando los sacó de la tierra de Egipto”.
22 And he stood Solomon before [the] altar of Yahweh before all [the] assembly of Israel and he spread out palms his the heavens.
Entonces Salomón se paró frente al altar del Señor, ante toda la asamblea de Israel, y extendió sus manos hacia el cielo.
23 And he said O Yahweh [the] God of Israel there not like you [is] a God in the heavens above and on the earth beneath [who] keeps the covenant and covenant loyalty to servants your who walk before you with all heart their.
Y dijo: “Señor, Dios de Israel, no hay Dios como tú en el cielo de arriba ni en la tierra de abajo. Tú mantienes tu palabra de amor fielcon tus siervos, los que te siguen de todo corazón.
24 Who you have kept to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him and you spoke with mouth your and with hand your you have fulfilled as the day this.
Has cumplido la promesa que le hiciste a tu siervo David, mi padre. Tú mismo lo prometiste, y por tu propio poder lo has cumplido hoy.
25 And therefore O Yahweh - [the] God of Israel keep to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him saying not it will be cut off to you a man from to before me [who] sits on [the] throne of Israel only if they will guard descendants your way their to walk before me just as you have walked before me.
Así que ahora, Señor, Dios de Israel, te ruego que también cumplas la promesa que hiciste a tu siervo, mi padre David, cuando le dijiste: ‘Nunca dejará de haber un descendiente que se siente en mi presencia en el trono de Israel, siempre que se asegure de seguirme como tú lo has hecho’.
26 And therefore O God of Israel let it be established please (word your *Q(K)*) which you spoke to servant your David father my.
Ahora, Dios de Israel, cumple la promesa que hiciste a nuestro siervo, mi padre David.
27 For ¿ really will he dwell God on the earth here! the heavens and [the] heavens of the heavens not they contain you indeed? for the house this which I have built.
“¿Pero vivirá Dios realmente aquí en la tierra? Los cielos, incluso los más altos, no pueden contenerte, ¡y mucho menos este Templo que he construido!
28 And you will turn to [the] prayer of servant your and to supplication his O Yahweh God my to listen to the cry of entreaty and to the prayer which servant your [is] praying before you this day.
Por favor, escucha la oración de tu siervo y su petición, Señor Dios mío. Por favor, escucha las peticiones y las oraciones que tu siervo presenta hoy ante ti.
29 To be eyes your open to the house this night and day to the place where you have said it will be name my there to listen to the prayer which he will pray servant your to the place this.
Que vigiles este Templo día y noche, cuidando el lugar donde dijiste que serías honrado. Que escuches la oración que tu siervo eleva hacia este lugar,
30 And you will listen to [the] supplication of servant your and people your Israel which they will pray to the place this and you you will listen to [the] place dwelling you to the heavens and you will hear and you will forgive.
y que escuches la petición de tu siervo y de tu pueblo Israel cuando oran hacia este lugar. Por favor, escucha desde el cielo donde vives. Que escuches y perdones.
31 [that] which He will sin anyone to neighbor his and he will impose on him an oath to put under an oath him and he will come he will swear an oath before altar your in the house this.
“Cuando alguien peca contra otro y se le exige un juramento ante tu altar en este Templo,
32 And you - you will hear the heavens and you will act and you will judge servants your to condemn as guilty a guilty [person] to requite conduct his on own head his and to declare righteous a righteous [person] to give to him according to righteousness his.
escucha desde el cielo: actúa y juzga a tus siervos. Devuelve la culpa a los culpables; reivindica y recompensa a los que hacen el bien.
33 When are defeated people your Israel before an enemy that they will sin to you and they will turn back to you and they will praise name your and they will pray and they will seek favor to you in the house this.
“Cuando tu pueblo Israel sea derrotado por un enemigo porque ha pecado contra ti, y si vuelve arrepentido a ti, orando por el perdón en este Templo,
34 And you you will hear the heavens and you will forgive [the] sin of people your Israel and you will bring back them to the land which you gave to ancestors their.
entonces escucha desde el cielo y perdona el pecado de tu pueblo Israel, y haz que vuelva a la tierra que le diste a él y a sus antepasados.
35 When are shut up [the] heavens and not it will be rain for they will sin to you and they will pray to the place this and they will praise name your and from sin their they will turn back! for you will afflict them.
“Si los cielos se cierran y no llueve porque tu pueblo ha pecado contra ti, si orancon su mirada hacia este lugar y si vuelven arrepentidos a ti, apartándose de su pecado porque los has castigado,
36 And you - you will hear the heavens and you will forgive [the] sin of servants your and people your Israel that you will teach them the way good which they will walk in it and you will give rain on land your which you gave to people your to an inheritance.
entonces escucha desde el cielo y perdona el pecado de tus siervos, tu pueblo Israel. Enséñales el buen camino para que puedan andar por él, y envía la lluvia sobre la tierra que has dado a tu pueblo como posesión.
37 Famine if it will be in the land pestilence for it will be blight mildew locust[s] locust[s] for it will be that he will lay siege to it enemy its in [the] land of gates its every plague any sickness.
“Si hay hambre en la tierra, o enfermedad, o tizón o moho en las cosechas, o si hay langostas u orugas, o si un enemigo viene a sitiar las ciudades de la tierra – sea cualquier tipo de plaga o cualquier tipo de enfermedad –
38 Every prayer every supplication which it will belong to any person to all people your Israel who they will know! each [the] plague of own heart his and he will spread out palms his to the house this.
entonces cualquier oración o apelación que haga un israelita o todo tu pueblo Israel – incluso cualquiera que, reconociendo sus problemas y dolores – oremirando hacia este Templo,
39 And you you will hear the heavens [the] place of dwelling your and you will forgive and you will act and you will give to the person according to all ways his whom you will know heart his for you you know to alone you [the] heart of all [the] children of humankind.
entonces escucha desde el cielo, el lugar donde vives, y perdona. Contéstales según la forma en que viven sus vidas, porque tú sabes cómo son realmente las personas por dentro, y sólo tú conoces el verdadero carácter de las personas.
40 So that they may fear you all the days which they [will be] alive on [the] surface of the ground which you gave to ancestors our.
Entonces te respetarán y seguirán tus caminos todo el tiempo que vivan en la tierra que les diste a nuestros antepasados.
41 And also to the foreigner who not [is] one of people your Israel he and he will come from a land distant for [the] sake of name your.
“En cuanto a los extranjeros que no pertenecen a tu pueblo Israel, sino que vienen de una tierra lejana,
42 For they will hear! name your great and hand your mighty and arm your outstretched and he will come and he will pray to the house this.
– habiendo oído hablar de tu gran naturaleza y poder para ayudarlos, – que cuando vengan y oren hacia este Templo,
43 You you will hear the heavens [the] place dwelling you and you will do according to all that he will call to you the foreigner so that they may know! all [the] peoples of the earth name your to fear you like people your Israel and to know that name your it has been called on the house this which I have built.
tú escúchalos desde el cielo, el lugar donde vives, y dales lo que piden. De esta manera, todos los habitantes de la tierra llegarán a conocerte y respetarte, al igual que tu propio pueblo Israel. También sabrán que este Templo que he construido está dedicado a ti.
44 If it will go forth people your for battle on enemy its by the way which you will send them and they will pray to Yahweh [the] direction of the city which you have chosen it and the house which I have built for name your.
“Cuando tu pueblo vaya a luchar contra sus enemigos, donde quiera que lo envíes, y cuando oren, mirando hacia la ciudad que has elegido y la casa que he construido para honrarte,
45 And you will hear the heavens prayer their and supplication their and you will do justice their.
entonces escucha desde el cielo lo que están orando y pidiendo, y apoya su causa.
46 If they will sin to you for there not [is] anyone who not he sins and you will be angry with them and will you deliver up them before an enemy and they will take captive them captors their to [the] land of the enemy distant or near.
“Si pecan contra ti – y no hay nadie que no peque – podrás enojarte con ellos y entregarlos a un enemigo que los lleve como prisioneros a una tierra extranjera, cercana o lejana.
47 And they will bring back to heart their in the land where they have been taken captive there and they will repent - and they will seek favor to you in [the] land of captors their saying we have sinned and we have done wrong we have acted wickedly.
Pero si recapacitan en su tierra de cautiverio y se arrepienten y te piden misericordia, diciendo: ‘Hemos pecado, hemos hecho el mal, hemos actuado con maldad’,
48 And they will return to you with all heart their and with all being their in [the] land of enemies their who they have taken captive them and they will pray to you [the] direction of land their which you gave to ancestors their the city which you have chosen and the house which (I have built *Q(K)*) for name your.
y vuelven a ti con total sinceridad en sus pensamientos y actitudes allí en su tierra de cautiverio; y oran mirando hacia la tierra que les diste a sus antepasados, la ciudad que elegiste y el Templo que he construido para honrarte,
49 And you will hear the heavens [the] place dwelling you prayer their and supplication their and you will do justice their.
entonces escucha desde el cielo, el lugar donde vives, responde y apoya su causa.
50 And you will forgive people your who they have sinned to you and all transgressions their which they transgressed against you and you will make them into [objects of] compassion before captors their and they will have compassion on them.
Perdona a tu pueblo que ha pecado contra ti, todos los actos de rebeldía que ha cometido contra ti. Haz que quienes los han capturado se apiaden de ellos.
51 For [are] people your and inheritance your they whom you brought out from Egypt from [the] midst of [the] furnace of iron.
Porque ellos son tu pueblo, te pertenecen. Tú los sacaste de Egipto, de en medio de un horno donde se funde el hierro.
52 To be eyes your open to [the] supplication of servant your and to [the] supplication of people your Israel to listen to them in all calling they to you.
“Presta atención a las peticiones de tu siervo, y a las de tu pueblo Israel, y responde siempre que te invoquen.
53 For you you have separated them for yourself to an inheritance from all [the] peoples of the earth just as you spoke by [the] hand of - Moses servant your when bringing out you ancestors our from Egypt O Lord Yahweh.
Porque los apartaste de todas las naciones del mundo como un pueblo que te pertenece, tal como lo declaraste por medio de tu siervo Moisés cuando sacaste a nuestros padres de Egipto”.
54 And it was - when had finished Solomon to pray to Yahweh all the prayer and the supplication this he stood up from to before [the] altar of Yahweh from bowing down on knees his and palms his [were] spread out the heavens.
Cuando Salomón terminó de hacer todas estas oraciones y peticiones al Señor, se levantó ante el altar del Señor, donde había estado arrodillado con las manos extendidas hacia el cielo.
55 And he stood and he blessed all [the] assembly of Israel a voice great saying.
Entonces Salomón se puso de pie, y en voz alta bendijo a toda la asamblea de Israel, diciendo:
56 [be] blessed Yahweh who he has given a resting place to people his Israel according to all that he has spoken not it has fallen a word one from every word his good which he spoke by [the] hand of Moses servant his.
“Alabado sea el Señor, que ha dado descanso a su pueblo Israel según todo lo que prometió. Ni una sola palabra ha fallado entre todas las buenas promesas que hizo por medio de su siervo Moisés.
57 May he be Yahweh God our with us just as he was with ancestors our may not he forsake us and may not he abandon us.
Que el Señor, nuestro Dios, esté con nosotros como lo estuvo con nuestros antepasados. Que nunca nos deje ni nos abandone.
58 To incline heart our to him to walk in all ways his and to keep commandments his and statutes his and judgments his which he commanded ancestors our.
Que nos ayude a acercarnos a él, a seguir todos sus caminos y a cumplir los mandamientos, estatutos y reglamentos que ordenó a nuestros antepasados.
59 And may they be words my these which I have sought favor before Yahweh near to Yahweh God our by day and night to do - [the] justice of servant his and [the] justice of people his Israel a matter of a day in day its.
Que estas palabras mías con las que he hecho mi petición en presencia del Señor estén ante el Señor, nuestro Dios, día y noche. Así él podrá apoyar la causa de su siervo y de su pueblo Israel como es necesario cada día,
60 So as to know all [the] peoples of the earth that Yahweh he [is] God there not [is] still more.
para que todos en la tierra sepan que el Señor es Dios y que no hay otro.
61 And it will be heart your complete with Yahweh God our to walk in statutes his and to keep commandments his as the day this.
Así que asegúrense de estar completamente comprometidos con el Señor, nuestro Dios, tal como lo están hoy, y sean diligentes en seguir sus estatutos y cumplir sus mandamientos”.
62 And the king and all Israel with him [were] sacrificing a sacrifice before Yahweh.
Entonces el rey y todo Israel ofrecieron sacrificios ante el Señor.
63 And he sacrificed Solomon [the] sacrifice of the peace offerings which he sacrificed to Yahweh cattle twenty and two thousand and sheep one hundred and twenty thousand and they dedicated [the] house of Yahweh the king and all [the] people of Israel.
Salomón presentó como ofrendas de paz al Señor 22.000 bueyes y 120.000 ovejas. De este modo, el rey y todo el pueblo de Israel dedicaron el Templo del Señor.
64 On the day that he consecrated the king [the] middle of the court which [was] before [the] house of Yahweh for he offered there the burnt offering and the grain offering and [the] fat of the peace offerings for [the] altar of bronze which [was] before Yahweh [was too] small for containing the burnt offering and the grain offering and [the] fat of the peace offerings.
Ese mismo día, el rey dedicó el centro del patio frente al Templo del Señor. Allí presentó los holocaustos, las ofrendas de grano y la grasa de las ofrendas de paz, ya que el altar de bronce que estaba en la presencia del Señor era demasiado pequeño para contener todas estas ofrendas.
65 And he observed Solomon at the time that - the festival and all Israel with him an assembly great from Lebo Hamath - to [the] wadi of Egypt before Yahweh God our seven days and seven days four-teen day[s].
Entonces Salomón, junto con todo Israel, observó la fiesta ante el Señor, nuestro Dios, durante siete días, y luego otros siete días; en total, catorce días. Era una gran asamblea de gente, que venía desde tan lejos como Lebó-jamat hasta el Wadi de Egipto.
66 On the day eighth he sent away the people and they blessed the king and they went to tents their joyful and good of heart on all the good which he had done Yahweh to David servant his and to Israel people his.
Un día después Salomón envió al pueblo a casa. Bendijeron al rey y se fueron a casa, llenos de alegría y felices por todas las cosas buenas que el Señor había hecho por su siervo David y por su pueblo Israel.
