2 Tarihi 6
1 Sa’an nan Solomon ya ce, “Ubangiji ya faɗa cewa zai zauna cikin duhun girgije;
Then Solomon said, “Yahweh, you said that you would live in a dark cloud.
2 na gina ƙasaitaccen haikali dominka, wuri domin ka zauna har abada.”
But now I have built a glorious temple for you to live in forever!”
3 Yayinda dukan taron Isra’ila suke tsaye a can, sai sarki ya juya ya albarkace su.
Then while all the people stood there, Solomon turned toward the people and he [asked God to] bless them.
4 Sa’an nan ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, wanda da hannuwansa ya cika abin da ya yi alkawari da bakinsa ga mahaifina Dawuda. Gama ya ce,
He said to them, “Praise Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong, who has caused to happen what he promised to my father David. What he said to David was this:
5 ‘Tun ranar na da fitar da mutanena daga Masar, ban zaɓi wani birni a wata kabilar Isra’ila don a gina haikali domin Sunana ya kasance a can ba, ba kuwa zaɓi wani yă zama shugaba a bisa jama’ata Isra’ila ba.
‘From the time that I brought my people out of Egypt, I have never chosen a city in Israel in which a temple should be built for people to [worship] me there. Nor did I choose anyone to be the leader of my Israeli people.
6 Amma yanzu na zaɓi Urushalima domin Sunana yă kasance a can, na kuma zaɓi Dawuda yă yi mulkin mutanena Isra’ila.’
But now I have chosen Jerusalem to be the place for people to worship me, and I have chosen you to rule my Israeli people.’”
7 “Mahaifina Dawuda ya yi niyya a zuciyarsa yă gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.
[Then Solomon said], “My father David wanted to build a temple for Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong.
8 Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa mahaifina Dawuda, ‘Domin yana a zuciyarka ka gina haikali domin Sunana, ka yi daidai da ka kasance da wannan a zuciyarka.
But Yahweh said to him, ‘You have wanted to build a temple for me, and what you wanted to do was good.
9 Duk da haka, ba kai ba ne za ka gina haikalin, amma ɗanka wanda yake namanka da jininka, shi ne wanda zai gina haikali domin Sunana.’
However, you are not the one who I want to build the temple; it is one of your own sons who [I want to] build a temple for me.’
10 “Ubangiji ya kiyaye alkawarin da ya yi. Na gāje Dawuda mahaifina yanzu kuwa na zauna a kan kujerar sarautar Isra’ila, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya alkawarta, na kuma gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.
“And Yahweh has done what he promised to do. I have become the king of Israel to succeed my father, and I am ruling the people, like Yahweh promised, and I have arranged for this temple to be built for us to worship Yahweh, the God to whom we Israelis belong.
11 A can na ajiye akwatin alkawari, inda alkawarin Ubangiji da ya yi da mutanen Isra’ila yake.”
I have put the Sacred Chest in the temple, in which are the stone tablets [on which are engraved the Ten Commandments of] the agreement that Yahweh made with us Israeli people.”
12 Sa’an nan Solomon ya tsaya a gaban bagaden Ubangiji a gaban dukan taron Isra’ila ya ɗaga hannuwansa sama.
Then Solomon stood in front of the altar which was in front of the people of Israel who had gathered there.
13 Dā ma ya riga ya gina dakalin tagulla, mai tsawo kamu biyar, fāɗi kamu biyar da kuma tsayi kamu uku, ya kuma sa shi a tsakiyar filin waje. Ya tsaya a kan dakalin ya kuma durƙusa a gaban dukan taron Isra’ila ya buɗe hannuwansa sama.
His workers had built a bronze platform there [for him to stand on], which was 7-1/2 feet long and 7-1/2 feet wide and 4-1/2 feet high. They put it in the outer courtyard. Solomon stood on that platform and then knelt down in front of all the people of Israel who had gathered there, and he spread out his arms toward heaven,
14 Ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, babu Allah kamar ka a sama da kuma ƙasa, kai da kake kiyaye alkawarinka na ƙauna tare da bayinka waɗanda suke cin gaba da zuciya ɗaya a hanyarka.
and he prayed, “Yahweh, the God to whom we Israeli people belong, there is no God like you in heaven or on the earth. You solemnly promised that you would faithfully love us, and that is what you have done for us who earnestly do what you want us to do.
15 Ka kiyaye alkawarinka ga bawanka Dawuda mahaifina; da bakinka ka yi alkawari kuma da hannunka ka cika shi, yadda yake a yau.
“You have done the things that you promised my father David, who served you [very well], that you would do. Truly, you promised to do those things for him, and today we see that by your power you have caused it all to happen.
16 “Yanzu fa Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, ka kiyaye wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina alkawuran da ka yi masa sa’ad da ka ce, ‘Ba za ka kāsa kasance da mutumin da zai zauna a gabana a kan kujerar sarautar Isra’ila ba, in kawai’ya’yanka maza za su kula cikin dukan abin da suke yi su yi tafiya a gabana bisa ga dokata, kamar yadda ka yi.’
“So now, Yahweh, the God we Israelis belong to, please do the things that you promised to my father David that you would do. You said that there would always be some of his descendants to rule Israel, if they faithfully conduct their lives as he did.
17 Yanzu kuwa, ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, bari maganarka da ka yi alkawarta wa bawanka Dawuda yă cika.
So now, God of us Israeli people, cause what you promised David, who served you [well], to happen.
18 “Amma tabbatacce Allah zai zauna a duniya tare da mutane? Sammai, har ma da saman sammai, ba za su iya riƙe ka ba. Balle wannan haikalin da na gina!
“But, my God, will you really live on earth among people? There is surely not enough space for you in the sky, or even in the heaven! So there is surely not enough space for you to live in this temple that my workers have built.
19 Duk da haka ka mai da hankali ga addu’ar bawanka da kuma roƙo don jinƙai, ya Ubangiji, Allahna. Ka ji kuka da addu’ar da bawanka yake yi a gabanka.
But Yahweh, my God, please listen to my prayer, while I am pleading with you this day and do what I am requesting.
20 Bari idanunka su buɗu ta wajen wannan haikali dare da rana, wannan wurin da ka ce za ka sa Sunanka a can. Bari ka ji addu’ar da bawanka ke yi ta wajen wannan wuri.
Please protect this temple day and night. This is the place about which you have said, ‘I will always be there.’ Please listen to my prayer about this place.
21 Ka ji roƙe-roƙen bawanka da na mutanenka Isra’ila sa’ad da suka yi addu’a suna duban wajen wannan wuri. Ka ji daga sama, mazauninka; kuma sa’ad da ka ji, ka gafarta.
Listen to me when I pray, and listen to your Israeli people when they pray. Listen from heaven, where you live; and when you hear us pray, forgive us.
22 “Sa’ad da mutum ya yi wa maƙwabcinsa laifi aka kuma bukaci ya yi rantsuwa, ya kuma zo ya rantse a gaban bagadenka a cikin wannan haikali,
“If someone is accused of doing something wrong to another person, and they bring him to testify in front of your altar outside this holy temple, and if he says, ‘I did not do that; may God punish me if I am not telling the truth,’
23 sai ka ji daga sama ka kuma yi wani abu. Ka shari’anta tsakanin bayinka, kana sāka wa mai laifi ta wurin kawo a kansa hakkin abin da ya yi. Ka nuna cewa marar laifi ba shi da laifi, ta haka a fiffita rashin laifinsa.
then you listen from heaven, and you decide who is telling the truth. Then punish the person who is guilty as he deserves to be punished, and declare that the other person is innocent.
24 “Sa’ad da an ci mutanenka Isra’ila a yaƙi ta wurin abokin gāba domin sun yi maka zunubi kuma sa’ad da suka juya suka furta sunanka, suna addu’a suka kuma yin roƙe-roƙe a gabanka a wannan haikali,
“And when your Israeli people are defeated by their enemies because they sinned against you, [and forced to go to some distant country, ] if they turn away from their sinful behavior and turn toward this temple and admit [that] you [have justly punished them], and plead [that you will forgive them],
25 sai ka ji daga sama ka kuma gafarta zunubin mutanenka Isra’ila ka kuma dawo da su zuwa ƙasar da ka ba su da kuma kakanninsu.
listen to them from heaven and forgive your Israeli people for the sins that they [have committed], and bring them back to this land that you gave to our ancestors.
26 “Sa’ad da sammai suka rufu ba kuwa ruwan sama saboda mutanenka sun yi maka zunubi, sa’ad da kuwa suka yi addu’a suna duban waje wannan wuri suka kuma furta sunanka suka juye daga zunubinsu domin ka azabta su,
“When you do not allow any rain to fall because your people have sinned against you, if they turn toward this temple and admit [that] you [have justly punished them], and turn away from their sinful behavior and humbly pray to you,
27 sai ka ji daga sama ka kuma gafarta zunubin bayinka, mutanenka Isra’ila. Ka koya musu hanyar da ta dace da za su yi zama, ka kuma aika ruwan sama a ƙasar da ka ba mutanenka gādo.
hear from heaven and forgive the sins of your Israeli people. Teach them the right way to conduct their lives. Then cause it to rain here on the land that you gave to your people to belong to them [permanently].
28 “Sa’ad da yunwa ko annoba ta fāɗo a ƙasar, ko wahala ko fumfuna, ko fāra ko fāra ɗango, ko sa’ad da abokan gāba sun yi musu ƙawanya a kowane daga biranensu, dukan wata masifa ko cutar da za tă zo,
“And when the people of this land experience famines or if there is a plague, or when their crops are destroyed by very hot winds or by mildew or by locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemies surround any of their cities [in order to attack them], if any of those bad things happen to them,
29 sa’ad da kuwa wani cikin mutanenka Isra’ila ya yi wata addu’a ko roƙo, kowa yana sane a azabarsa da kuma zafinsa, yana buɗe hannuwansa yana duban wajen wannan haikali,
when your Israeli people earnestly plead with you, knowing in their inner beings that they are suffering [because they have sinned], if they stretch out their hands toward this temple and pray,
30 sai ka ji daga sama, mazauninka. Ka gafarta, ka kuma yi da kowane mutum gwargwadon duk abin da yake yi, da yake ka san zuciyarsa (gama kai kaɗai ka san zukatan mutane),
hear from your home in heaven, and forgive them. You alone know what each person is thinking, so reward each person according to everything that he does,
31 don su ji tsoronka su kuma yi tafiya a hanyoyinka a kowane lokacin da suke zama a ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninsu.
in order that they will revere you and conduct their lives as you want them to, all the time that they live in this land that you gave to our ancestors.
32 “Game da baƙo wanda shi ba na mutanenka Isra’ila ba kuwa amma ya zo daga ƙasa mai nisa saboda sunanka mai girma da kuma hannunka mai iko da hannunka mai ƙarfi, sa’ad da ya zo ya yi addu’a yana duban wannan haikali,
“There will be some foreigners who do not belong to your Israeli people who have come here from countries far away because they have heard that you are very great and that you perform great miracles. If they turn toward this temple and pray,
33 sai ka ji daga sama, mazauninka, ka kuma yi duk abin da baƙon ya nemi ka yi, saboda dukan mutanen duniya su san sunanka su kuma ji tsoronka, kamar yadda mutanenka Isra’ila suke yi, su kuma san cewa wannan gidan da na gina na Sunanka ne.
from your home in heaven listen to their prayer, and do for them what they request you to do. Do that in order that all the people-groups in the world will know about you and revere you, like we, your own Israeli people do. And then they will know that this is the temple that I have caused to be built for you.
34 “Sa’ad da mutanenka suka je yaƙi da abokan gābansu, ko’ina ka kai su, kuma sa’ad da suka yi addu’a gare ka suna duban wannan birnin da ka zaɓa da haikalin nan da na gina domin Sunanka,
“When you send your people to go to places to attack their enemies, if they pray to you, wherever they are, if they turn toward this city that you have chosen and toward this temple that I have caused to be built to honor you,
35 sai ka ji addu’arsu da kuma roƙonsu daga sama, ka kuma biya musu bukatarsu.
listen in heaven to their prayers; listen to what they plead for you [to do], and assist them.
36 “Sa’ad da suka yi maka zunubi, gama babu wani wanda ba ya zunubi, ka kuwa yi fushi da su ka miƙa su ga abokin gāba, wanda ya kai su zaman bauta a ƙasa mai nisa ko kuwa kusa;
[“It is true that] everyone sins. So, when your people sin against you, and you become angry with them, you may allow their enemies to capture them and take them to their countries, even to countries that are far away.
37 Kuma in suka canja zuciya a cikin ƙasar da suke zaman bauta, suka tuba suka roƙe ka a ƙasar zaman bautarsu suka kuma ce, ‘Mun yi zunubi, mu yi abin da ba daidai ba, mu kuwa yi mugunta’;
When that happens, while they are in the countries to which they were forced to go, if they are sorry for having sinned, if they say, ‘We have sinned; we have done things that are wrong and have done things that are very wicked,’
38 in kuma sun juye gare ka da dukan zuciyarsu da ransu a ƙasar zaman bautarsu inda aka kai su, suka kuma dubi wajen ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninsu, wajen birnin da ka zaɓa da kuma wajen haikalin da na gina domin Sunanka;
if they repent very sincerely, and if they turn toward this land that you gave to our ancestors, and toward this city that you have chosen [to be the place where we should worship you], and toward this temple that I have caused to be built for you and pray,
39 to, daga sama, mazauninka, sai ka ji addu’arsu da kuma roƙe-roƙensu, ka kuwa biya musu bukatunsu. Ka gafarta wa mutanenka, waɗanda suka yi maka zunubi.
then from your home in heaven hear their prayer, and listen to them while they plead [for your help], and do what they ask you to do, and forgive your people who have sinned against you.
40 “Yanzu, Allahna, bari idanunka su buɗu kunnuwanka kuma su saurara ga addu’o’in da ake miƙa a wannan wuri.
“Now, my God, look at us and listen to us as we pray to you in this place.
41 “Yanzu ka tashi, ya Ubangiji Allah, ka zo wurin hutunka,
Yahweh our God, come and stay in this place with the Sacred Chest, the chest that shows that you are powerful. Yahweh God, cause your priests to know clearly that you have blessed them. Cause us your people to rejoice because of all the good things [that you do for us].
42 Ya Ubangiji Allah, kada ka ƙyale shafaffenka.
Yahweh God, do not reject me [the king] whom you have appointed [to be the king of Israel]; do not forget that you greatly loved David, who served you [very well].”
