2 Istwa 7
1 Alò, lè Salomon te fin fè priyè a, dife a te sòti nan syèl la pou te boule ofrann brile a avèk sakrifis yo; e glwa a SENYÈ a te ranpli kay la.
And when Solomon had finished praying, then the fire came down from heaven, and devoured the whole burnt offerings and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the house.
2 Prèt yo pa t kab antre lakay SENYÈ a akoz glwa SENYÈ a te ranpli kay la.
And the priests could not enter into the house of the Lord at that time, for the glory of the Lord filled the house.
3 Tout fis Israël yo, lè yo te wè dife a desann, e glwa SENYÈ a sou kay la, yo te bese ba sou pave a avèk figi yo atè pou yo te adore e te bay lwanj a SENYÈ a. Yo te di: “Konsa Li bon, paske lanmou dous Li a dire pou tout tan,”
And all the children of Israel saw the fire descending, and the glory of the Lord was upon the house: and they fell upon their face to the ground on the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the Lord; for [it is] good [to do so], because his mercy [endures] for ever.
4 Epi wa a avèk tout pèp la te ofri sakrifis devan SENYÈ a.
And the king and all the people [were] offering sacrifices before the Lord.
5 Wa Salomon te ofri yon sakrifis a venn-de-mil bèf ak san-ven-mil mouton. Konsa, wa a avèk tout pèp la te dedye kay Bondye a.
And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of calves twenty and two thousand, of sheep a hundred and twenty thousand: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
6 Prèt yo te kanpe nan pòs pa yo, e Levit yo tou avèk enstriman mizik a SENYÈ a, ke Wa David te fè pou bay lwanj a SENYÈ a lè David te bay lwanj sèvis yo. E yo te di, “Paske lanmou dous Li a dire pou tout tan”. Konsa, prèt yo te soufle twonpèt devan yo, epi tout Israël te kanpe.
And the priests were standing at their watches, and the Levites with instruments of music of the Lord, belonging to king David, to give thanks before the Lord, for his mercy [endures] for ever, with the hymns of David, by their ministry: and the priests were blowing the trumpets before them, and all Israel standing.
7 Salomon te konsakre mitan lakou ki te devan kay SENYÈ a pou fè l sen. Paske la, li te ofri ofrann brile ak grès ofrann lapè yo akoz lotèl an bwonz ke Salomon te fè a pa t kab kenbe ofrann brile a, ofrann sereyal la ak grès la.
And Solomon consecrated the middle of the court that was in the house of the Lord: for he offered there the whole burnt offerings and the fat of the peace-offerings, for the brazen altar which Solomon had made was not sufficient to receive the whole burnt offerings, and the meat-offerings, and the fat.
8 Konsa, Salomon te obsève fèt la nan tan sa a pandan sèt jou e tout Israël avèk li; yon trè gran asanble ki te sòti depi nan antre Hamath jis rive nan flèv Égypte la.
And Solomon kept the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly, from the entering in of Aemath, and as far as the river of Egypt.
9 Nan uityèm jou a, yo te kenbe yon asanble solanèl pou obsève dedikasyon lotèl la. Yo te obsève l pou sèt jou, e fèt la pandan sèt jou.
And on the eighth day he kept a solemn assembly: for he kept a feast of seven days as the dedication of the altar.
10 Epi sou venn-twazyèm jou nan setyèm mwa a, li te voye pèp la nan tant yo, ranpli avèk jwa e avèk kè kontan, akoz bonte ke SENYÈ a te montre a David, a Salomon e a pèp Li a, Israël.
And on the twenty-third day of the seventh month he dismissed the people to their tents, rejoicing, and with a glad heart because of the good deeds which the Lord had done to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.
11 Se konsa Salomon te fini kay SENYÈ a avèk palè wa a, e li te acheve nèt tout sa ke li te fè plan pou fè lakay SENYÈ a ak nan kay pa li a.
So Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king's house: and in whatever Solomon wished in his heart to do in the house of the Lord and in his own house, he prospered.
12 Konsa, SENYÈ a te parèt a Salomon nan nwit lan. Li te di l: “Mwen te tande lapriyè ou a, e Mwen te chwazi plas sa a pou Mwen menm kòm yon kay sakrifis.
And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him, I have heard your prayer, and I have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
13 “Si Mwen vin fèmen syèl yo pou pa gen lapli, oswa si Mwen kòmande krikèt yo pou devore latè, oswa si Mwen voye toumant pami pèp Mwen an,
If I should restrain the heaven and there should be no rain, and if I should command the locust to devour the trees, and if I should send pestilence upon my people;
14 epi pèp Mwen ki rele pa non Mwen an vin imilye yo, priye, chache fas Mwen e vire kite abitid mechan yo; nan moman sa a, Mwen va tande yo soti nan syèl la. Mwen va padone peche pa yo, e Mwen va geri peyi yo.
then if my people, on whom my name is called, should repent, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their evil ways, I also will hear from heaven, and I will be merciful to their sins, and I will heal their land.
15 Koulye a, zye M va louvri e zòrèy Mwen va vin atantif a lapriyè ki ofri nan plas sa a.
And now my eyes shall be open, and my ears attentive to the prayer of this place.
16 Paske koulye a, Mwen gen tan chwazi e konsakre kay sila a pou non Mwen kapab la jis pou tout tan. Zye Mwen ak kè Mwen va la pou tout tan.
And now I have chosen and sanctified this house, that my name should be there for ever: and my eyes and my heart shall be there always.
17 “Epi pou ou menm, si ou mache devan M tankou papa ou, David te mache a, fè selon tout sa ke Mwen te kòmande ou yo, e kenbe règleman Mwen yo avèk òdonans Mwen yo,
And if you will walk before me as David your father [did], and will do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my ordinances and my judgements;
18 alò, Mwen va etabli twòn wayal ou a jan Mwen te sèmante a David la, lè M te di: ‘Ou p ap manke yon nonm ki pou gouvène an Israël.’
then will I establish the throne of your kingdom, as I covenanted with David your father, saying, There shall not fail you a man ruling in Israel.
19 “Men si ou vire kite e abandone règleman Mwen yo, avèk kòmandman ke M te mete devan ou yo, pou ale sèvi lòt dye yo e adore yo,
But if you should turn away, and forsake my ordinances and my commandments, which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods, and worship them;
20 alò, Mwen va dechouke ou soti nan peyi ke M te ba ou a, ak kay sa a, ke Mwen te konsakre pou non pa Mwen an, Mwen va jete l andeyò vizaj Mwen, e Mwen va fè li yon pwovèb ak yon rizib pami tout pèp yo.
then will I remove you from the land which I gave them; and this house which I have consecrated to my name I will remove out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword amongst all nations.
21 Epi pou kay sila a, ki egzalte tèlman wo, tout moun ki pase kote li va etone e va di: “Poukisa SENYÈ a te fè sa a peyi sila a, e a kay sila a?
And [as for] this lofty house, every one that passes by it shall be amazed, and shall say, Therefore has the Lord done [thus] to this land, and to this house?
22 Epi konsa, yo va reponn: ‘Akoz yo te abandone SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a, ki te mennen yo soti nan peyi Égypte la, pou yo te adopte lòt dye yo, e te adore yo e te sèvi yo. Se pou sa, Li te mennen tout mal sila a sou yo.’”
And [men] shall say, Because they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they attached themselves to other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: and therefore he has brought upon them all this evil.
