Fiawo 1 8
1 Azɔ la, Fia Solomo ƒo Israelviwo ƒe kplɔlawo, towo kple hlɔ̃wo ƒe tatɔwo katã nu ƒu ɖe Yerusalem be, woakpɔ ale si woatsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la tso agbadɔ la me le Zion, David ƒe du la me, ayi gbedoxɔ la me la teƒe.
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;
2 Tete Israel ŋutsuwo katã kpe ta ɖe Fia Solomo gbɔ le Agbadɔmeŋkekenyui la ɖuɣi le ɣleti adrelia me.
and all the men of Israel are assembled to King Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival (the seventh month).
3 Esi Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiawo katã va ɖo la, nunɔlawo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la.
And all [the] elderly of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the Ark,
4 Wotsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la kple takpeƒe ƒe agbadɔ la kple nu kɔkɔe siwo katã le eme. Nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwoe tsɔ wo.
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.
5 Fia Solomo kple Israelviwo katã ƒo ƒu ɖe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ eye wotsɔ alẽ kple nyitsu geɖe siwo womate ŋu axlẽ o la sa vɔe.
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.
6 Le esia megbe la, nunɔlawo tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va da ɖe enɔƒe le gbedoxɔ la ƒe kɔkɔe ƒe emetɔ si nye Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me eye wokɔe da ɖe kerubiawo ƒe aʋalawo te.
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;
7 Wowɔ kerubiawo ale be woƒe aʋalawo tsyɔ teƒe si woada nubablaɖaka la ɖo la dzi. Ale woƒe aʋalawo tsyɔ nubablaɖaka la kple kpo siwo wowɔ ɖe wo ŋu la dzi.
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;
8 Kpoawo didi ale gbegbe be woƒe nugbɔwo didi gbɔ aɖaka la ŋu, woate ŋu akpɔ wo tso xɔ emetɔ, Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me, gake womate ŋu akpɔ wo le Kɔkɔeƒe la godo o. Wogale afi ma va se ɖe egbe.
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.
9 Naneke menɔ nubablaɖaka la me ɣe ma ɣi o, negbe kpe kpakpa eve siwo Mose tsɔ de wo me le Horeb to la dzi esime Yehowa bla nu kple Israelviwo le woƒe dzodzo le Egipte megbe la ko.
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.
10 Kpɔ ɖa! Esi nunɔlaawo trɔ tso Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la gbɔna ko la, lilikpo keklẽ aɖe yɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me taŋtaŋ!
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,
11 Nunɔlaawo magate ŋu awɔ woƒe dɔ o, le lilikpo la ta elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.
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.
12 Fia Solomo gblɔ be “Yehowa gblɔ be yeanɔ lilikpo doviviti aɖe me.
Then Solomon said, “YHWH has said [He is] to dwell in thick darkness;
13 Metu gbedoxɔ nyui aɖe na wò, si me nànɔ tegbee.”
I have surely built a house of habitation for You; a fixed place for Your abiding for all ages.”
14 Tete Fia la trɔ ɖe ameha la gbɔ, ameawo tsi tsitre ɖe eŋkume be yewoaxɔ eƒe yayra eye wòyra wo.
And the king turns his face around, and blesses the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.
15 Egblɔ bena, “Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si tsɔ eƒe asi wɔ ŋugbe si wòdo kple eƒe nu na fofonye, David dzi egbe
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,
16 elabena Yehowa gblɔ na Fia David be, ‘Tso gbe si gbe mekplɔ nye dukɔ Israel tso Egipte la, nyemetia du aɖeke le Israel toawo katã me be woatu gbedoxɔ nam ɖe afi ma be nye ŋkɔ nanɔ eme o. Ke metia David be wòanɔ nye dukɔ Israel nu.’
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.
17 “Ame siae nye fofonye, Fia David. Edi be yeatu gbedoxɔ aɖe na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu ƒe ŋkɔ.
And it is with the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of YHWH, God of Israel,
18 Ke Yehowa gblɔ na fofonye, David be, ‘Esi nèɖoe ɖe wò dzi me be yeatu gbedoxɔ na nye ŋkɔ la, èwɔe nyuie be nèɖoe ɖe wò dzi me.
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;
19 Ke, menye wòe nye ame si atu gbedoxɔ la o, ke viwò, ame si nye wò ŋutɔ wò ŋutilã kple ʋu; eyae nye ame si atu gbedoxɔ la na nye ŋkɔ.’
only, you do not build the house, but your son who is coming out from your loins, he builds the house for My Name.
20 “Azɔ la, Yehowa wɔ nu si ŋugbe wòdo elabena mezu Israel fia ɖe fofonye David yome eye azɔ la, metu gbedoxɔ sia na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ.
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,
21 Mewɔ teƒe aɖe ɖe gbedoxɔ la me na nubablaɖaka la si me nubabla si Yehowa wɔ kple mía fofowo esime wòkplɔ wo tso Egiptenyigba dzi la le.”
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.”
22 Azɔ Solomo tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la ŋkume, eye wòke eƒe abɔwo me do ɖe dziƒo
And Solomon stands before the altar of YHWH, in front of all the assembly of Israel, and spreads his hands toward the heavens,
23 eye wògblɔ be, “Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, Mawu aɖeke meɖi wò, le dziƒo afi ma alo anyigba dzi afi sia o, wò ame si léa wò lɔlɔ̃ ƒe nubabla me ɖe asi kple wò subɔla siwo zɔna ɖe wò mɔwo nu kple dzi blibo.
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,
24 Egbe la, èwɔ ŋugbe si nèdo na fofonye David, ame si nye wò subɔla la dzi. Ètsɔ wò nu do ŋugbee eye nètsɔ wò asi wɔ edzi abe ale si wòle egbe ene.
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.
25 “Azɔ la, Oo Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbe bubu si nèdo nɛ la hã dzi. Èdo ŋugbe be, ne fofonye ƒe dzidzimeviwo alé wò mɔwo me ɖe asi eye woawɔ wò lɔlɔ̃nu abe ale si eya wɔ ene la, ekema wo dometɔ ɖeka anɔ Israel ƒe fiazikpui dzi ɣe sia ɣi.
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.
26 Ke azɔ la, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbedodo si nèwɔ na wò dɔla David, fofonye la hã dzi.
And now, O God of Israel, please let Your word be established which You have spoken to Your servant, my father David.
27 “Ke, ɖe Mawu ate ŋu anɔ anyigba dzia? Dziƒowo kple dziƒo kɔkɔtɔwo kekeake hã melolo na wò, hafi gbedoxɔ sia nasu na wò o!
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!
28 Ke, ɖo to wò dɔla ƒe gbedodoɖa kple eƒe kokoƒoƒo na nublanuikpɔkpɔ, O Yehowa, nye Mawu. Se wò dɔla ƒe ɣlidodo kple gbe si wò dɔla le dodom ɖa na wò egbe.
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,
29 Na wò ŋkuwo nanɔ gbedoxɔ sia ŋu zã kple keli, teƒe si ŋu nègblɔ le be ‘Nye ŋkɔ anɔ afi ma’ ale be nàse wò subɔla ƒe gbe si wòado ɖa ɖo ɖe teƒe sia.
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.
30 Ɖo to wò subɔla kple Israelviwo ƒe kukuɖeɖe ne wodze ŋgɔ afi sia eye wodo gbe ɖa na wò. Ɛ̃, se woƒe gbedodoɖa le dziƒo si nye wò nɔƒe eye ne èsee la, ekema nàtsɔ nu vɔ̃wo ake.
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,
31 “Ne wotsɔ nya ɖe ame aɖe ŋu be ewɔ nu vɔ̃ aɖe eye wòtsi tsitre ɖe afi sia, le wò vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ heka atam be yemewɔ nu vɔ̃ la o la,
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,
32 ekema, se eƒe gbe le dziƒo, nàtso afia na ame si tɔ dzɔ, nàbu fɔ agɔdzela la eye nàna eƒe fɔɖiɖi nava eƒe ta dzi. Wɔ na ame si tɔ dzɔ la ɖe eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye nu.
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.
33 “Ne futɔwo ɖu wò dukɔ, Israel dzi elabena wowɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe ŋutiwò, ne wotrɔ va gbɔwò eye woʋu wò ŋkɔ me, ne wodo gbe ɖa na wò le gbedoxɔ sia me la,
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,
34 ekema se woƒe gbe tso dziƒo eye nàtsɔ wò dukɔ, Israel ƒe nu vɔ̃ akee eye nàgbugbɔ wo ava anyigba si nèna wo fofowo la dzi.
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.
35 “Ne dziƒowo nu tu eye tsi mele dzadzam o elabena wò amewo wɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe ŋutiwò, ne wodo gbe ɖa ɖo ɖe teƒe sia, ʋu wò ŋkɔ me eye woɖe asi le woƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋu elabena èwɔ fu wo la,
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,
36 ekema se woƒe kokoƒoƒo tso dziƒo eye nàtsɔ wò subɔlawo, wò dukɔ, Israel ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo. Fia agbenɔnɔ ƒe mɔ nyuitɔ wo eye nàna tsi nadza ɖe anyigba si nèna wo abe woƒe domenyinu ene la dzi.
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.
37 “Ne dɔ to le anyigba la dzi to dɔléle ƒe agblemenukuwo dzi dzedze alo ʋetsuviwo ƒe vava me, ne Israel ƒe futɔwo ɖe to ɖe Israel ƒe duwo dometɔ aɖe eye ne dɔvɔ̃ to le anyigba la dzi alo ne nu bubu ɖe sia ɖe na dɔ to le anyigba la dzi,
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—
38 ne wò dukɔ Israel ƒe amewo ƒo koko na wò, wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe dze si eya ŋutɔ ƒe dzi ƒe fuɖenamewo eye wòdo eƒe asiwo ɖe dzi do ɖe gbedoxɔ sia gbɔ la,
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,
39 ekema se woƒe gbedodoɖa tso dziƒo, wò nɔƒe, tsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ke wo eye nàkpe ɖe ame sia ame si ʋu eƒe nu vɔ̃ me na wò le nyateƒe me la ŋu elabena ènya ame siawo ƒe dzi me.
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),
40 Ale woasrɔ̃ ale si woavɔ̃ wòe esi wole anyigba si nèna wo fofowo la dzi.
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.
41 “Amedzro si metso wò dukɔ, Israel me o, ke wòtso didiƒenyigba aɖe dzi le wò ŋkɔ ta,
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—
42 elabena amewo ase nu tso wò ŋkɔ gã la, wò asi sesẽ la kple wò alɔ si nèdo ɖe dzi la ta, ne amedzro sia va eye wòdo gbe ɖa le gbedoxɔ sia gbɔ la,

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.
44 “Ne èna wò amewo ho aʋa ɖe woƒe futɔwo ŋu eye wotrɔ mo ɖo ɖe Yerusalem, wò du tiatia la kple gbedoxɔ sia, si metu na wò ŋkɔ la,
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,
45 se woƒe gbedodoɖa kple kokoƒoƒo le dziƒo eye nàxɔ na wo.
then You have heard their prayer and their supplication in the heavens, and have maintained their cause.
46 “Ne wowɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe ŋuwò, abe ale si ame sia ame wɔa nu vɔ̃ ene, nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe wo ŋu eye nèna woƒe futɔwo ɖe aboyo wo yi dzronyigba aɖe dzi, didiƒe alo kpuiƒe
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;
47 eye ne wotrɔ susu le anyigba si dzi woɖe aboyo wo yi, eye wotrɔ dzi me heƒo koko le aboyonyigba dzi hegblɔ be, ‘Míewɔ nu vɔ̃, míeda vo eye míewɔ nu ŋutasẽtɔe’
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;
48 eye ne wotrɔ va gbɔwò kple woƒe dzi blibo kple luʋɔ blibo le ame siwo ɖe aboyo wo ƒe anyigba dzi eye wodo gbe ɖa ɖo ɖe anyigba si nèna wo fofowo gbɔ, ɖo ɖe du si nètia kple gbedoxɔ si metu na wò ŋkɔ gbɔ la,
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:
49 ekema nàse woƒe gbedodoɖa kple kukuɖeɖe le dziƒo, wò nɔƒe eye nàwɔ woƒe biabiawo dzi na wo.
then You have heard in the heavens, the settled place of Your dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and have maintained their cause,
50 “Tsɔ wò amewo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ke wo eye nàna ame siwo ɖe aboyo wo la nakpɔ nublanui na wo
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—
51 elabena wò amewoe wonye, wò domenyinu si nèɖe tso Egiptetɔwo ƒe kpodzo mee wonye.
for they [are] Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron—
52 “Na wò ŋkuwo kple towo siaa naʋu ɖe woƒe kukuɖeɖewo ŋu. Oo, Yehowa, se woƒe gbedodoɖawo eye nàwɔ woƒe biabiawo dzi na wo ɣe sia ɣi si woado ɣli na wò
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;
53 elabena ètia wo le anyigbadzidukɔwo katã dome be woanye wò domenyinu, abe ale si nègblɔ to wò dɔla Mose dzi ene esi nèkplɔ mía fofowo tso Egipte, Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowa.”
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.”
54 Esi Solomo wu gbedodoɖa siawo katã na Yehowa nu la, etsi tsitre tso Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ afi si wòdze klo ɖo heke eƒe abɔwo me ɖo ɖe dziƒo.
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,
55 Etsi tsitre eye wòyra Israel ƒe ƒuƒoƒo blibo la kple gbe sesẽ aɖe hegblɔ be,
and he stands and blesses all the assembly of Israel [with] a loud voice, saying,
56 “Woakafu Yehowa, ame si wɔ eƒe ŋugbedodowo katã dzi eye wòna ŋutifafa eƒe dukɔ, Israel. Nya ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã megbe emevava le ŋugbe siwo wòdo to Mose dzi la me o.
“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.
57 Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la nanɔ kpli mí abe ale si wònɔ kple mía fofowo eye megblẽ mí ɖi gbeɖegbeɖe o la ene.
Our God YHWH is with us as He has been with our fathers; He does not forsake us nor leave us;

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;
59 Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la nena nye gbedodoɖa sia me nyawo nanɔ eƒe ŋkume zã kple keli ale be wòakpe ɖe nye kple Israel blibo la ŋu le míaƒe gbe sia gbe ƒe nuhiahiãwo me.
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,
60 Wòana wòava eme be anyigbadzitɔwo katã nanya be Yehowae nye Mawu eye mawu bubu aɖeke kura megali o.
that all the peoples of the earth may know that He, YHWH, [is] God; there is none else;
61 Oo, nye amewo, mianɔ agbe dzadzɛ, le Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ŋkume, miawɔ eƒe sewo kple ɖoɖowo katã dzi, abe ale si miele ewɔm egbe ene la ko!”
and your heart has been perfect with our God YHWH, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commands, as [at] this day.”
62 Azɔ la, Fia Solomo kple Israel blibo la sa vɔwo le Yehowa ŋkume.
And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before YHWH;
63 Solomo sa akpedavɔ na Yehowa kple nyi akpe blaeve-vɔ-eve kple alẽ kple gbɔ̃ akpe alafa ɖeka blaeve. Ale Fia la kple Israelviwo katã kɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu.
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.
64 Gbe ma gbe ke la, fia la kɔ xɔxɔnu emetɔ si le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ŋgɔ la ŋuti eye le afi ma wòsa numevɔ, nuɖuvɔ kple akpedavɔ ƒe amiwo le elabena akɔblivɔsamlekpui si le Yehowa ŋkume la le sue akpa na numevɔ, nuɖuvɔ kple akpedavɔsawo ƒe ami.
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.
65 Ale Solomo ɖu ŋkekenyui le ɣe ma ɣi me eye Israel katã ɖui kplii. Ameha gã aɖe ŋutɔe wònye, ameawo tso Lebo Hamat va se ɖe Egipte tɔʋu la gbɔ ke. Woɖu ŋkeke sia le Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ŋkume ŋkeke adre eye wogaɖui ŋkeke adre bubu. Wo katã le ŋkeke wuiene.
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.
66 Esi ŋu ke la, edo mɔ ameawo wodzo. Woyra fia la hafi dzo yi aƒe me; dzidzɔ kple aseyetsotso yɔ woƒe dziwo me ɖe nu nyui siwo katã Yehowa wɔ na eƒe dɔla, David kple eƒe dukɔ, Israel la ta.
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.
