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 at Solomon's finishing to pray, then the fire hath come down from the heavens, and consumeth the burnt-offering and the sacrifices, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house,
2 Prèt yo pa t kab antre lakay SENYÈ a akoz glwa SENYÈ a te ranpli kay la.
and the priests have not been able to go in unto the house of Jehovah, because the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah.
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 sons of Israel are looking on the descending of the fire, and the honour of Jehovah on the house, and they bow — faces to the earth — on the pavement, and do obeisance, and give thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age [is] His kindness.
4 Epi wa a avèk tout pèp la te ofri sakrifis devan SENYÈ a.
And the king and all the people are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah,
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 sacrificeth the sacrifice of the herd, twenty and two thousand, and of the flock, a hundred and twenty thousand, and the king and all the people dedicate 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 over their charges are standing, and the Levites with instruments of the song of Jehovah — that David the king made, to give thanks to Jehovah, for to the age [is] His kindness, in David's praising by their hand — and the priests are blowing trumpets over-against them, and all Israel are 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 sanctifieth the middle of the court that [is] before the house of Jehovah, for he hath made there the burnt-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings: for the altar of brass that Solomon made hath not been able to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, 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 maketh the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him — a very great assembly — from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook 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 they make on the eighth day a restraint, because the dedication of the altar they have made seven days, and the feast seven days.
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 and third day of the seventh month he hath sent the people to their tents, rejoicing, and glad in heart, for the goodness that Jehovah hath 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.
And Solomon finisheth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king; and all that hath come on the heart of Solomon to do in the house of Jehovah, and in his own house, he hath caused to prosper.
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 Jehovah appeareth unto Solomon by night, and saith to him, 'I have heard thy prayer, and have fixed on this place to Me 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 restrain the heavens and there is no rain, and if I lay charge on the locust to consume the land, and if I send pestilence among 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.
and My people on whom My name is called be humbled, and pray, and seek My face, and turn back from their evil ways, then I — I hear from the heavens, and forgive their sin, and heal their land.
15 Koulye a, zye M va louvri e zòrèy Mwen va vin atantif a lapriyè ki ofri nan plas sa a.
'Now, Mine eyes are open, and Mine 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 for My name being there unto the age; yea, Mine eyes and My heart have been there all the days.
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 thou, if thou dost walk before Me as David thy father walked, even to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and My statutes and My judgments dost keep —
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 I have established the throne of thy kingdom, as I covenanted with David thy father, saying, There is not cut off a man to thee — a ruler 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,
and if ye turn back — ye — and have forsaken My statutes, and My commands, that I have placed before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them — then I have plucked them from off My ground that I have given to 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.
and this house that I have sanctified for My name, I cast from before My face, and make it for a proverb, and for a byword, among all the peoples.
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 this house that hath been high, to every one passing by it, is an astonishment, and he hath said, Wherefore hath Jehovah 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 they have said, Because that they have forsaken Jehovah, God of their fathers, who brought them out from the land of Egypt, and lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them, and serve them, therefore He hath brought upon them all this evil.'
