II Oihanaalii 7
1 A HOOKI o Solomona i ka pule, iho mai la ke ahi, mai ka lani mai, a ai iho la i ka mohaikuni, a me na mohai e ae; a piha ae la ka hale i ka nani o Iehova.
When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
2 Aole hiki i ka poe kahuna ke komo iloko o ka hale o Iehova, no ka mea, ua piha ka hale o Iehova i ka nani o Iehova.
The priests were unable to enter the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled it.
3 A ike ka Iseraela a pau i ka iho ana mai o ke ahi, a me ka nani o Iehova maluna o ka hale, alaila, kulou iho la lakou ilalo ko lakou mau maka ma ka honua, ma ke kipapa, a hoomana lakou, a hoolea aku ia Iehova, No ka mea, ua maikai ia, ua mau loa kona aloha.
When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the LORD above the temple, they bowed down on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the LORD: “For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.”
4 A o ke alii a me na kanaka a pau, mohai aku la lakou i na mohai imua o Iehova.
Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the LORD.
5 A mohai aku la ke alii o Solomona i ka mohai i na bipi he iwakaluakumamalua tausani, a me na hipa hookahi haneri me ka iwaka lua tausani, Pela i hoolaa ai ke alii a me na kanaka a pau i ka hale o ke Akua.
And King Solomon offered a sacrifice of 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
6 Ku iho la na kahuna ma ko lakou wahi, a o na mamo a Levi, me na mea kani o Iehova, na mea a Davida ke alii i hana'i e hoolea aku ia Iehova, No ka mea, ua mau loa kona aloha: i ka wa i hoolea aku ai o Davida ma ia mau mea, hookani no hoi na kahuna i ka pu imua o lakou, a ku iluna ka Iseraela a pau.
The priests stood at their posts, as did the Levites with the musical instruments of the LORD, which King David had made for giving thanks to the LORD and with which David had offered praise, saying, “For His loving devotion endures forever.” Across from the Levites, the priests sounded trumpets, and all the Israelites were standing.
7 Hoolaa iho la o Solomona i kahi mawaena konu o ka pahale imua o ka hale o Iehova; no ka mea, malaila oia i mohai aku ai i ka mohai, a me ka momona o na mohai aloha, no ka mea, o ke kuahu keleawe a Solomona i hana'i, he uuku ia i ka mohai kuni, a me na mo hai ai, a me na momona.
Then Solomon consecrated the middle of the courtyard in front of the house of the LORD, and there he offered the burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings, since the bronze altar he had made could not contain all these offerings.
8 Hana iho la o Solomona ia manawa, i ka ahaaina i na la ehiku, a me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau, he ahakanaka nui loa mai ka mokuna o Hamata a hiki i ka muliwai o Aigupita.
So at that time Solomon and all Israel with him—a very great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast for seven days.
9 A i ka walu o ka la he halawai ahaaina ko lakou, no ka mea, ehiku la o ko lakou hoolaa ana i ke kuahu, a ehiku la ka lakou ahaaina ana.
On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly, for the dedication of the altar had lasted seven days, and the feast seven days more.
10 A i ka la iwakaluakumamakolu o ka malama ehiku, hookuu aku la oia i ka poe kanaka e hoi ma ko lakou mau halelewa, e hauoli ana me ka naau olioli no ka maikai a Iehova i hana'i ia Davida, a ia Solomona, a i kona poe kanaka i ka Iseraela.
On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, Solomon sent the people away to their homes, joyful and glad of heart for the good things that the LORD had done for David, for Solomon, and for His people Israel.
11 Pela i paa ai ia Solomona ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a hoopau pomaikai iho la ia na mea a pau i komo iloko o ka naau o Solomona e hana iloko o ka hale o Iehova, a i kona hale iho.
When Solomon had finished the house of the LORD and the royal palace, successfully carrying out all that was in his heart to do for the house of the LORD and for his own palace,
12 Ua ikeia mai o Iehova e Solomona i ka po, a olelo mai oia ia ia, Ua lohe au i kau pule, a ua koho au i keia wahi no'u i hale mohai.
the LORD appeared to him at night and said to him: “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice.
13 Ina e pani au i ka lani i ua ole mai, a e kauoha au i ka uhini e ai i na mea o ka aina, a e hoouna paha au i ka mai ahulau maluna o ko'u poe kanaka;
If I close the sky so there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among My people,
14 Ina e hoohaahaa ko'u poe kanaka ia lakou iho, ka poe i kapaia ko'u inoa maluna o lakou, a e pule lakou, a e imi i ko'u alo, a huli mai ko lakou aoao hewa mai; alaila, e hoolohe au mai ka lani mai, a e kala au i ko lakou hewa, a e hoola i ko lakou aina.
and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
15 Ano, ua kaakaa ko'u mau maka, a ua haliu ko'u pepeiao i ka pule ma keia wahi.
Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.
16 Ano hoi, na koho au, a ua hoolaa au i keia hale e waiho mau loa ai i ko'u inoa malaila; a malaila ko'u mau maka a me ko'u naau i na la a pau loa:
For I have now chosen and consecrated this temple so that My Name may be there forever. My eyes and My heart will be there for all time.
17 A o oe, ina e hele imua o'u e like me Davida kou makuakane i hele ai, e hana e like me na mea a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe, a e malama oe i ko'u kanawai a me ka'u mau kauoha;
And as for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,
18 Alaila, e hookupaa au i ka nohoalii o kou aupuni, e like me au i hoohiki ai ia Davida, i kou makuakane, i ka i ana'ku ia ia, Aole loa oe e nele i ke kanaka e noho alii maluna o ka Iseraela.
then I will establish your royal throne, as I covenanted with your father David when I said, ‘You will never fail to have a man to rule over Israel.’
19 Aka, ina e huli e ae oukou, a e haalele i ko'u kanawai. a me na kauoha a'u i haawi aku ai ia oukou, a e hele a e hookauwa aku na na akua e. a e kulou imua o lakou;
But if you turn away and forsake the statutes and commandments I have set before you, and if you go off to serve and worship other gods,
20 Alaila, e hookuke au ia lakou mailoko aku o ka aina a'u i haawi ai ia lakou; a o keia hale ka mea a'u i hoolaa ai no ko'u inoa, e hoolei au mai ko'u alo aku, a e hoolilo au ia mea i mea e hoino ai, a i mea e hoowahawaha aku ai, mawaena o na kanaka a pau.
then I will uproot Israel from the soil I have given them, and I will banish from My presence this temple I have sanctified for My Name. I will make it an object of scorn and ridicule among all the peoples.
21 A o keia hale ka mea kiekie, e lilo ia i mea e kahaha ai ka poe a pau e maalo ana; a e olelo lakou, No ke aha la i hana'i o Iehova pela i keia aina, a i keia hale?
And when this temple has become a heap of rubble, all who pass by it will be appalled and say, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’
22 Alaila e oleloia, No ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna, ka mea nana lakou i lawe mai, mai ka aina mai o Aigupita, a ua hoopili aku i na akua e, a ua hoomana ia lakou, a hookauwa na lakou; no ia mea, ua hooili oia i keia poino a pau maluna o lakou.
And others will answer, ‘Because they have forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them—because of this, He has brought all this disaster upon them.’”
