< 2 Chronicles 7 >
1 And whanne Salomon schedynge preyeris hadde fillid, fier cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride brent sacrifices, and slayn sacrifices; and the maieste of the Lord fillide the hows.
所罗门祈祷已毕,就有火从天上降下来,烧尽燔祭和别的祭。耶和华的荣光充满了殿;
2 And preestis myyten not entre in to the temple of the Lord; for the maieste of the Lord hadde fillid the temple of the Lord.
因耶和华的荣光充满了耶和华殿,所以祭司不能进殿。
3 But also alle the sones of Israel sien fier comynge doun, and the glorie of the Lord on the hows, and thei felden down lowe to the erthe on the pawment araied with stoon, and thei worschipiden, and preisiden the Lord, For he is good, for his merci is in to al the world.
那火降下、耶和华的荣光在殿上的时候,以色列众人看见,就在铺石地俯伏叩拜,称谢耶和华说: 耶和华本为善, 他的慈爱永远长存!
4 Forsothe the kyng and al the puple offriden slayn sacrifices bifor the Lord.
王和众民在耶和华面前献祭。
5 Therfor king Salomon killide sacrifices of oxis two and twenti thousynd, of wetheris sixe score thousynde; and the kyng and al the puple halewiden the hows of God.
所罗门王用牛二万二千,羊十二万献祭。这样,王和众民为 神的殿行奉献之礼。
6 Forsothe the preestis stoden in her offices, and dekenes in orguns of songis of the Lord, whiche kyng Dauid made to preise the Lord, For his merci is in to the world; and thei sungen the ympnes of Dauid bi her hondis; sotheli the prestis sungen with trumpis bifor hem, and al the puple of Israel stood.
祭司侍立,各供其职;利未人也拿着耶和华的乐器,就是大卫王造出来、借利未人颂赞耶和华的。(他的慈爱永远长存!)祭司在众人面前吹号,以色列人都站立。
7 Therfor Salomon halewide the myddil of the large place bifor the temple of the Lord; for he hadde offrid there brent sacrifices, and the ynnere fatnesses of pesible sacrifices, for the brasun auter which he hadde maad myyte not susteyne the brent sacrifices, and sacrifices, and the innere fatnessis of pesible sacrifices.
所罗门因他所造的铜坛容不下燔祭、素祭,和脂油,便将耶和华殿前院子当中分别为圣,在那里献燔祭和平安祭牲的脂油。
8 Therfor Salomon made a solempnyte in that tyme in seuene dayes, and al Israel with hym, a ful greete chirche, fro the entryng of Emath `til to the stronde of Egipt.
那时所罗门和以色列众人,就是从哈马口直到埃及小河,所有的以色列人都聚集成为大会,守节七日。
9 And in the eiythe dai he made a gaderyng of money, `that is, for necessaries of the temple, for he hadde halewid the auter in seuene daies, and `hadde maad solempnytee in seuene daies.
第八日设立严肃会,行奉献坛的礼七日,守节七日。
10 Therfor in the thre and twentithe dai of the seuenthe monethe he lete the puplis go to her tabernaclis, ioiynge and gladynge on the good that God hadde do to Dauid, and to Salomon, and to his puple Israel.
七月二十三日,王遣散众民;他们因见耶和华向大卫和所罗门与他民以色列所施的恩惠,就都心中喜乐,各归各家去了。
11 And Salomon parformyde the hows of the Lord, and the hows of the kyng, and alle thingis which he hadde disposid in his herte for to do in the hows of the Lord and in his owne hows; and he hadde prosperite.
所罗门造成了耶和华殿和王宫;在耶和华殿和王宫凡他心中所要做的,都顺顺利利地做成了。
12 Forsothe the Lord aperide to hym in the nyyt, and seide, Y haue herd thi preiere, and Y haue chose this place to me in to an hows of sacrifice.
夜间耶和华向所罗门显现,对他说:“我已听了你的祷告,也选择这地方作为祭祀我的殿宇。
13 If Y close heuene, and reyn cometh not doun, and if Y sende, and comaunde to a locuste, that he deuoure the lond, and if Y send pestilence in to my puple;
我若使天闭塞不下雨,或使蝗虫吃这地的出产,或使瘟疫流行在我民中,
14 forsothe if my puple is conuertid, on whiche my name is clepid, and if it bisechith me, and sekith my face, and doith penaunce of hise werste weies, Y schal here fro heuene, and Y schal be merciful to the synnes of hem, and Y schal heele the lond of hem.
这称为我名下的子民,若是自卑、祷告,寻求我的面,转离他们的恶行,我必从天上垂听,赦免他们的罪,医治他们的地。
15 And myn iyen schulen be openyd, and myn eeren schulen be reisid to the preiere of hym, that preieth in this place;
我必睁眼看、侧耳听在此处所献的祷告。
16 for Y haue chose, and halewid this place, that my name be there with outen ende, and that myn iyen and myn herte dwelle there in alle daies.
现在我已选择这殿,分别为圣,使我的名永在其中,我的眼、我的心也必常在那里。
17 Also if thou gost bifore me, as Dauid thi fadir yede, and doist bi alle thingis whiche Y comaundide to thee, and kepist my riytwisnessis and domes, Y schal reise the trone of thi rewme,
你若在我面前效法你父大卫所行的,遵行我一切所吩咐你的,谨守我的律例典章,
18 as Y bihiyte to Dauid thi fadir, and seide, A man of thi generacioun schal not be takun awei, that schal be prince in Israel.
我就必坚固你的国位,正如我与你父大卫所立的约,说:‘你的子孙必不断人作以色列的王。’
19 But if ye turnen awey, and forsake my riytwisnessis and my comaundementis whiche Y settide forth to you, and ye goen, and seruen alien goddis, and worschipen hem,
“倘若你们转去丢弃我指示你们的律例诫命,去事奉敬拜别神,
20 Y schal drawe you awey fro my lond, which Y yaf to you, and Y schal caste awey fro my face this hows which Y haue bildid to my name, and Y schal yyue it in to a parable, and in to ensaumple to alle puplis.
我就必将以色列人从我赐给他们的地上拔出根来,并且我为己名所分别为圣的殿也必舍弃不顾,使他在万民中作笑谈,被讥诮。
21 And this hows schal be in to a prouerbe to alle men passynge forth; and thei schulen seie, wondringe, Whi dide the Lord so to this lond, and to this hows?
这殿虽然甚高,将来经过的人必惊讶说:‘耶和华为何向这地和这殿如此行呢?’
22 And thei schulen answere, For thei forsoken the Lord God of her fadris, that ledde hem out of the lond of Egipt, and thei token alien goddis, and worschipiden, and herieden hem; therfor alle these yuelis camen on hem.
人必回答说:‘是因此地的人离弃耶和华—他们列祖的 神,就是领他们出埃及地的 神,去亲近别神,敬拜事奉他,所以耶和华使这一切灾祸临到他们。’”
