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.

Now when Solomon's prayers were ended, fire came down from heaven, burning up all the offerings; and the house was full of the glory of the Lord.

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.

And the priests were not able to go into the house of the Lord, for the Lord's house was full of the glory of the Lord.

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.

And all the children of Israel were looking on when the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord was on the house; and they went down on their knees, with their faces to the earth, worshipping and praising the Lord, and saying, He is good; for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

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 made offerings 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.

King Solomon made an offering of twenty-two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people kept the feast of the opening of 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.

And the priests were in their places, and the Levites with their instruments of music for the Lord's song, which David the king had made for the praise of the Lord whose mercy is unchanging for ever, when David gave praise by their hand; and the priests were sounding horns before them; and all Israel were on their feet.

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 made holy the middle of the open square in front of the house of the Lord, offering the burned offerings there, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for there was not room on the brass altar which Solomon had made for all the burned offerings and the meal offerings and the fat.

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 Solomon kept the feast at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great meeting, for the people had come together from the way into Hamath and from as far as the river of Egypt.

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.

And on the eighth day they had a holy meeting; the offerings for making the altar holy went on for seven days, and the feast for seven days.

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.

And on the twenty-third day of the seventh month, he sent the people away to their tents, full of joy and glad in their hearts, because of all the good which the Lord had done to David and to Solomon and to Israel his people.

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.

So Solomon came to the end of building the house of the Lord and the king's house; and everything which it was in his mind to make in the house of the Lord and for himself had been well done.

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.

Now the Lord came to Solomon in a vision by night, and said to him, I have given ear to your prayer, and have taken this place for myself as a house where offerings are to be made.

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, at my word, heaven is shut up, so that there is no rain, or if I send locusts on the land for its destruction, or if I send disease on 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.

If my people, on whom my name is named, make themselves low and come to me in prayer, searching for me and turning from their evil ways; then I will give ear from heaven, overlooking their sin, and will give life again to 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 awake to the prayers made 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 taken this house for myself and made it holy, so that my name may be there for ever; and my eyes and my heart will be there at all times.

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 will go on your way before me as David your father did, doing whatever I have given you orders to do and keeping my laws and my decisions:

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 make strong the seat of your kingdom, as I gave my word to David your father, saying, You will never be without a man to be ruler in 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 are turned away from me, and do not keep my orders and my laws which I have put before you, but go and make yourselves servants to other gods, giving them worship:

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 have this people uprooted out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, I will put away from before my eyes, and make it an example and a word of shame among all 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 this house will become a mass of broken walls, and everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder, and will say, Why has the Lord done so to this land and to this house?

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 their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord, the God of their fathers, who took them out of the land of Egypt, and took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why he has sent all this evil on them.
