1 Athamaki 8
1 Ningĩ Mũthamaki Solomoni agĩĩta athuuri a Isiraeli, na atongoria othe a mĩhĩrĩga, na anene a nyũmba cia andũ a Isiraeli moke kũrĩ we Jerusalemu, nĩguo maambatie ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova kuuma Zayuni, Itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩa Daudi.
Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, to king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which [is] Zion.
2 Nao andũ othe a Isiraeli magĩũka hamwe kũrĩ Mũthamaki Solomoni hĩndĩ ya gĩathĩ kĩa mweri wa Ethanimu, nĩguo mweri wa mũgwanja.
And all the men of Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which [is] the seventh month.
3 Rĩrĩa athuuri othe a Isiraeli maakinyire-rĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩoya ithandũkũ rĩu,
And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
4 nao makĩambatia ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova hamwe na Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na indo ciothe iria nyamũre ciarĩ thĩinĩ wayo. Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii magĩciambatia,
And they brought the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that [were] in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring.
5 nake Mũthamaki Solomoni na kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli kĩrĩa gĩacemanĩtie harĩ we kĩrĩ mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩu, gĩkĩruta igongona rĩa ngʼondu nyingĩ na ngʼombe nyingĩ mũno, ũũ atĩ itingĩandĩkirwo mũigana wacio kana itarĩke.
And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled to him, [were] with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
6 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai magĩcooka makĩrehe ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova handũ harĩo thĩinĩ wa hekarũ, Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno, makĩrĩiga rungu rwa mathagu ma makerubi.
And the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy [place], [even] under the wings of the cherubim.
7 Makerubi macio maatambũrũkĩtie mathagu mamo igũrũ rĩa harĩa haigĩtwo ithandũkũ rĩu, na makahumbĩra ithandũkũ, o na mĩtĩ yarĩo ya kũrĩkuua.
For the cherubim spread forth [their] two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staffs thereof above.
8 Mĩtĩ ĩyo yarĩ mĩraihu mũno, ũndũ mĩthia yayo yoonagwo nĩ mũndũ arĩ mbere ya Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru, no ndĩonekaga nĩ mũndũ arĩ nja ya Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru; na ĩrĩ o ho nginya ũmũthĩ.
And they drew out the staffs, that the ends of the staffs were seen out in the holy [place] before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are to this day.
9 Thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩu gũtiarĩ na kĩndũ kĩngĩ tiga o ihengere iria igĩrĩ cia mahiga iria Musa aigĩte ho rĩrĩa aarĩ Horebu, kũrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire kĩrĩkanĩro na andũ a Isiraeli maarĩkia kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri.
[There was] nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses deposited there at Horeb, when the LORD made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
10 Rĩrĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai meeherire makiuma Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru, itu rĩkĩiyũra hekarũ ya Jehova.
And it came to pass, when the priests had come out of the holy [place], that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,
11 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai matingĩahotire kũruta wĩra wao nĩ ũndũ wa itu rĩu, nĩgũkorwo riiri wa Jehova nĩwaiyũrĩte hekarũ yake.
So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.
12 Ningĩ Solomoni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova oigĩte atĩ nĩarĩikaraga thĩinĩ wa itu rĩrĩa itumanu;
Then spoke Solomon, The LORD said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
13 no rĩrĩ, ti-itherũ nĩngwakĩire hekarũ kĩĩrorerwa, handũ haku ha gũtũũra nginya tene.”
I have surely built thee a house to dwell in, a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.
14 O hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli kĩrũgamĩte o hau, mũthamaki agĩkĩhũgũkĩra, agĩkĩrathima.
And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel were standing.
15 Ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ: “Jehova arogoocwo, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa ũhingĩtie na guoko gwake mwene ũrĩa eerĩire baba, Daudi, na kanua gake mwene. Nĩgũkorwo oigire atĩrĩ,
And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled [it], saying,
16 ‘Kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarutire andũ akwa a Isiraeli kuuma Misiri, ndirĩ ndathuura itũũra inene thĩinĩ wa mũhĩrĩga o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli, atĩ nĩguo njakĩrwo hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa kuo, no nĩndathuurire Daudi athamakĩre andũ akwa Isiraeli.’
Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel from Egypt, I have chosen no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, that my name might be therein; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.
17 “Baba Daudi nĩatuĩte na ngoro yake gwaka hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli.
And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
18 No Jehova eerire baba, Daudi, atĩrĩ, ‘Tondũ nĩwatuĩte na ngoro yaku kũnjakĩra hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa-rĩ, nĩ wekire wega nĩ gwĩciiria ũguo ngoro-inĩ yaku.
And the LORD said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart.
19 No rĩrĩ, wee tiwe ũgwaka hekarũ ĩyo, no nĩ mũrũguo, ũrĩa uumĩte mũthiimo-inĩ waku na thakame-inĩ yaku, ũcio nĩwe ũgaaka hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.’
Nevertheless, thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house to my name.
20 “Jehova nĩatũũrĩtie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu, na rĩu nĩnjookete ithenya rĩa baba Daudi, na ngaikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gĩa Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eeranĩire, na nĩnjakĩte hekarũ ĩrĩa ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli.
And the LORD hath performed his word that he spoke, and I have risen in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built a house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
21 Hau nĩho thondekete handũ ha kũiga ithandũkũ rĩrĩa rĩ na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire na maithe maitũ, rĩrĩa aamarutire bũrũri wa Misiri.”
And I have set there a place for the ark, in which [is] the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them from the land of Egypt.
22 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Solomoni akĩrũgama mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova, o hau mbere ya kĩũngano gĩothe kĩa Isiraeli, agĩtambũrũkia moko make na igũrũ,
And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards Heaven:
23 akiuga atĩrĩ: “Wee Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ ũhaana tawe kũu igũrũ kana gũkũ thĩ, o wee ũhingagia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa wendo harĩ ndungata ciaku iria irũmagĩrĩra njĩra yaku na ngoro ciacio ciothe.
And he said, LORD 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.
24 Wee nĩũhingĩirie baba, Daudi ndungata yaku kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku; ũndũ ũrĩa weranĩire na kanua gaku nĩũhingĩtie na guoko gwaku, o ta ũrĩa kũhaana ũmũthĩ.
Who hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou didst promise him: thou didst speak also with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled [it] with thy hand, as [it is] this day.
25 “Na rĩrĩ, Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, hingĩria baba, Daudi ndungata yaku ciĩranĩro iria wamwĩrĩire rĩrĩa woigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ndũkaaga mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Isiraeli arĩ mbere yakwa, angĩkorwo ariũ aku nĩmarĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre yagĩrĩire mbere yakwa, o ta ũrĩa wee ũtũire ũthiiaga mbere yakwa.’
Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou didst promise him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; provided thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me.
26 Na rĩrĩ, Wee Ngai wa Isiraeli, reke kiugo gĩaku kĩrĩa werĩire baba, Daudi ndungata yaku, kĩhinge.
And now, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be verified, which thou didst speak to thy servant David my father.
27 “No kũhoteke Ngai atũũre gũkũ thĩ? Igũrũ, o na kũrĩa igũrũ mũno-rĩ, wee ndũngĩiganĩra kuo. Hekarũ ĩno njakĩte-rĩ, githĩ ndĩkĩrĩ nini makĩria!
But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have built?
28 No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, thikĩrĩria ihooya rĩa ndungata yaku, ĩgĩthaithana ĩiguĩrwo tha, Wee Jehova Ngai wakwa. Igua gũkaya na ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrakũhooya ĩrĩ mbere yaku ũmũthĩ.
Yet have thou respect to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken to the cry and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:
29 Maitho maku maroikara marorete hekarũ ĩno ũtukũ na mũthenya, o handũ haha wee woigire atĩrĩ, ‘Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩrĩkoragwo ho,’ nĩgeetha ũiguage ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrĩhooyaga ĩrorete handũ haha.
That thy eyes may be open towards this house night and day, [even] towards the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer which thy servant shall make towards this place.
30 Igua gũthaithana kwa ndungata yaku na kwa andũ aku a Isiraeli rĩrĩa mekũhooya marorete handũ haha. Ũigue ũrĩ kũu igũrũ, o kũu gĩikaro gĩaku, na watũigua ũgatũrekera.
And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray towards this place: and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place: and when thou hearest, forgive.
31 “Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩhĩtĩria mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake na gũtuĩke no nginya ehĩte, nake oke ehĩtĩre hau mbere ya kĩgongona gĩaku hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
If any man shall trespass against his neighbor, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before thy altar in this house:
32 hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩ ũkaigua ũrĩ kũu igũrũ na ũtue itua. Ũtuithanie ndungata ciaku ciira, ũrĩa mũhĩtia atuĩrwo ciira na acookererwo nĩ mahĩtia make marĩa ekĩte. Nake ũrĩa ũtehĩtie ũmũtue ndehĩtie, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio wonanie atĩ ti mwĩhia.
Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
33 “Rĩrĩa andũ aku a Isiraeli mahootwo nĩ thũ nĩ ũndũ nĩmakũhĩtĩirie, nao magũcookerere na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku, na mahooe magĩgũthaithaga marĩ hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
When thy people Israel shall be smitten before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication to thee in this house:
34 hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamaigua ũrĩ kũu igũrũ, na ũrekere andũ aku a Isiraeli mehia mao na ũmacookie bũrũri ũrĩa waheire maithe mao.
Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.
35 “Rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩkaahingwo na mbura yage kuura tondũ wa ũrĩa andũ aku makũhĩtĩirie-rĩ, mangĩkaahooya marorete handũ haha na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku, na magarũrũke matigane na mehia mao, tondũ nĩũmanyamarĩtie-rĩ,
When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray towards this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou afflictest them:
36 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, na ũrekere ndungata ciaku, andũ aku a Isiraeli, mehia mao. Marute mũtũũrĩre ũrĩa mwagĩrĩru, na ũmoirĩrie mbura bũrũri-inĩ ũcio waheire andũ aku ũtuĩke igai rĩao.
Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, that thou mayest teach them the good way in which they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.
37 “Kũngĩkaagĩa ngʼaragu kana mũthiro bũrũri-inĩ, kana mĩgũnda ĩhĩe nĩ mbaa kana mbuu, kana gũũke ngigĩ kana ngũnga, kana thũ imarigiicĩrie itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe rĩao, na mwanangĩko o na ũrĩkũ kana mũrimũ ũngĩgooka-rĩ,
If there shall be in the land famine, if there shall be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, [or] if there shall be caterpillar; if their enemy shall besiege them in the land of their cities, whatever plague, whatever sickness [there shall be];
38 na rĩrĩa mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa andũ aku a Isiraeli angĩkaahooya kana athaithane, o mũndũ aamenya mĩnyamaro ĩrĩa arĩ nayo ngoro-inĩ yake, na atambũrũkie moko make amerekeirie hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
Whatever prayer and supplication shall be [made] by any man, [or] by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands towards this house:
39 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaigua ũrĩ kũu igũrũ gĩikaro-inĩ gĩaku, ũmarekere, na ũtuĩre o mũndũ itua kũringana na ũrĩa wothe ekĩte, tondũ we nĩũĩ ngoro yake, (nĩgũkorwo nowe wiki ũũĩ ngoro cia andũ othe),
Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, [even] thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men; )
40 nĩgeetha matũũre magwĩtigĩrĩte matukũ mothe marĩa megũtũũra bũrũri ũrĩa waheire maithe maitũ.
That they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest to our fathers.
41 “Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ wa kũngĩ ũrĩa ũtarĩ wa andũ aku a Isiraeli, no nĩoimĩte bũrũri wa kũraya nĩ ũndũ wa Rĩĩtwa rĩaku,
Moreover, concerning a stranger, that [is] not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy name's sake;
42 tondũ andũ nĩmakaigua ngumo ya Rĩĩtwa rĩaku inene, na ũhoro wa ciĩko cia guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya gũtambũrũkĩtio, rĩrĩa agooka ahooe erekeire hekarũ ĩno,
(For they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy out-stretched arm; ) when he shall come and pray towards this house;
43 hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, gĩikaro-inĩ gĩaku, na mũndũ ũcio wa kũngĩ ũkamũhingĩria ũrĩa wothe agakũhooya, nĩgeetha andũ othe a thĩ mamenye rĩĩtwa rĩaku na magwĩtigĩre o ta ũrĩa andũ aku a Isiraeli magwĩtigĩrĩte, na mamenye atĩ nyũmba ĩno njakĩte ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling-place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as [do] thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.
44 “Rĩrĩa andũ aku maathiĩ mbaara-inĩ kũrũa na thũ ciao, o kũrĩa ũngĩmatũma, nao mahooe Jehova merekeire itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene ũthuurĩte na hekarũ ĩno njakĩte ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku,
If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, whithersoever thou shalt send them, and shall pray to the LORD towards the city which thou hast chosen, and [towards] the house that I have built for thy name:
45 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaigua mahooya na gũthaithana kwao ũrĩ kũu igũrũ na ũmatirĩrĩre ũhoro-inĩ ũcio wao.
Then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
46 “Rĩrĩa makwĩhĩria, nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ mũndũ ũtehagia, nawe ũmarakarĩre ũmaneane kũrĩ thũ, nacio imatahe imatware bũrũri wacio, ũrĩ kũraya kana ũrĩ gũkuhĩ;
If they shall sin against thee, (for [there is] no man that sinneth not, ) and thou shalt be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives to the land of the enemy, far or near;
47 nao mangĩĩcookera ngoro-inĩ ciao marĩ o kũu bũrũri ũrĩa maatahĩirwo, na merire, na magũthaithe marĩ o kũu bũrũri wa acio mamatooretie, na moige atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩtwĩhĩtie, na nĩtwĩkĩte mahĩtia, na tũgeka maũndũ ma waganu’;
[Yet] if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they were carried captives, and repent and make supplication to thee in the land of them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness;
48 na mangĩgagũcookerera na ngoro ciao ciothe, na mĩoyo yao, marĩ bũrũri wa thũ ciao iria ciamatahire, nao mahooe merekeire bũrũri ũrĩa waheire maithe mao, na merekeire itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩrĩa ũthuurĩte na hekarũ ĩno njakĩte ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku-rĩ;
And [so] return to thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, who led them away captive, and pray to thee towards their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:
49 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, gĩikaro-inĩ gĩaku, ũkaigua ihooya rĩao na mathaithana mao, na ũmatirĩrĩre ũhoro-inĩ ũcio wao.
Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling-place, and maintain their cause,
50 Na ũkarekera andũ aku, o acio makwĩhĩtie; ũmarekere mahĩtia marĩa mothe magwĩkĩte, na ũtũme acio mamatooretie mamaiguĩre tha;
And forgive thy people that have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions in which they have transgressed against thee, and give them compassion before them who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them:
51 tondũ nĩ andũ aku na igai rĩaku, o andũ arĩa warutire bũrũri wa Misiri, ũkĩmaruta kuuma mwaki-inĩ ũcio mũhiũ wa gũtwekia kĩgera.
For they [are] thy people, and thy inheritance, which thou broughtest out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron:
52 “Ũrohingũra maitho maku na ũigue mathaithana ma ndungata yaku na ma andũ aku a Isiraeli, ningĩ wĩtĩkĩre kũmathikagĩrĩria rĩrĩa rĩothe maagũkaĩra.
That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and to the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken to them in all their supplications to thee.
53 Nĩgũkorwo nĩwe wamathuurire kuuma thĩinĩ wa ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia thĩ matuĩke igai rĩaku kĩũmbe, o ta ũrĩa woimbũrire na kanua ka ndungata yaku Musa, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa wee, Mwathani Jehova, warutire maithe maitũ kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri.”
For thou didst separate them from among all the people of the earth, [to be] thy inheritance, as thou didst speak by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O LORD God.
54 Rĩrĩa Solomoni aarĩkirie mahooya macio mothe na gũthaitha Jehova-rĩ, agĩũkĩra, akĩehera mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova, harĩa aaturĩtie ndu aambararĩtie moko make na igũrũ.
And it was [so], that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees, with his hands spread up to heaven.
55 Akĩrũgama na akĩrathima kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ:
And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
56 “Jehova arogoocwo, ũrĩa ũheete andũ ake a Isiraeli ũhurũko o ta ũrĩa eranĩire. Gũtirĩ kiugo o na kĩmwe gĩa ciĩranĩro ciothe iria njega iria eeranĩire na kanua ka ndungata yake Musa gĩtahingĩte.
Blessed [be] the LORD, that hath given rest to 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.
57 Jehova Ngai witũ aroikara hamwe na ithuĩ o ta ũrĩa aarĩ hamwe na maithe maitũ; aroaga gũtũtiganĩria o na kana gũtũtirika.
The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:
58 Arotũma ngoro ciitũ imũcookerere, tũthiiage na njĩra ciake ciothe, na tũmenyagĩrĩre maathani make, na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho make marĩa aaheire maithe maitũ.
That he may incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
59 Na rĩrĩ, ciugo ici ciakwa, iria hooete ndĩ mbere ya Jehova, irokuhĩrĩria Jehova Ngai witũ mũthenya na ũtukũ, nĩguo atiiragĩrĩre maũndũ ma ndungata yake na andũ ake a Isiraeli, kũringana na mabataro ma o mũthenya,
And let these my words with which I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh to the LORD our God day and night, that he may maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:
60 nĩgeetha andũ othe a thĩ mamenye atĩ Jehova nĩwe Ngai, na gũtirĩ ũngĩ take.
That all the people of the earth may know, that the LORD [is] God, [and that there is] none else.
61 No ngoro cianyu no nginya ciĩheane biũ kũrĩ Jehova Ngai witũ, mũtũũrage kũringana na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na gwathĩkĩra maathani make, ta ũrĩa kũrĩ rĩu.”
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.
62 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki na andũ othe a Isiraeli makĩruta magongona hau mbere ya Jehova.
And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.
63 Solomoni nĩarutĩire Jehova igongona rĩa ũiguano ta ũũ: ngʼombe ngiri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na igĩrĩ, na ngʼondu na mbũri ngiri igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki na andũ a Isiraeli othe makĩamũra hekarũ ya Jehova.
And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he offered to the LORD, two and twenty thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD.
64 Mũthenya o ro ũcio mũthamaki nĩamũrire gĩcigo gĩa gatagatĩ kĩa nja ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mbere ya hekarũ ya Jehova, na akĩrutĩra igongona rĩa njino ho, na rĩa mũtu na rĩa maguta ma igongona rĩa ũiguano, tondũ kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mbere ya Jehova gĩtingĩaiganĩire magongona ma njino, na magongona ma mũtu na maguta ma magongona ma ũiguano.
The same day did the king consecrate the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt-offerings, and meat-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings: because the brazen altar that [was] before the LORD [was] too little to receive the burnt-offerings, and meat-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings.
