2 Masolo ya Kala 7
1 Tango Salomo asilisaki kosambela, moto ekitaki wuta na Likolo mpe ezikisaki mbeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka mosusu, mpe nkembo na Yawe etondisaki Tempelo.
And when Solomon had made an end of his prayer, Are came down from heaven, and consumed the holocausts and the victims: and the majesty of the Lord tilled the house.
2 Banganga-Nzambe bakokaki te kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe, pamba te nkembo na Yawe etondisaki yango.
Neither could the priests enter into the temple of the Lord, because the majesty of the Lord had filled the temple of the Lord.
3 Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bamonaki moto kokita mpe nkembo na Yawe na likolo ya Tempelo, bafukamaki bilongi kino na mabele; bongo bagumbamelaki mpe basanzolaki Yawe na maloba oyo: « Azali malamu, bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.
4 Mokonzi mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele babonzaki bambeka liboso ya Yawe.
And the king and all the people sacrificed victims before the Lord.
5 Mokonzi Salomo abonzaki lokola mbeka bangombe nkoto tuku mibale na mibale mpe bameme nkoto nkama moko na tuku mibale. Ezalaki ndenge wana nde mokonzi mpe bato nyonso babulisaki Tempelo ya Nzambe.
And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand oxen, and one hundred and twenty thousand rams: and the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
6 Banganga-Nzambe batelemaki na bisika na bango ya mosala, ndenge moko na Balevi mpe bibetelo mindule ya Yawe oyo mokonzi Davidi asalaki mpo na kosanzola na yango Yawe na maloba oyo: « Bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko. » Ezalaki Davidi moto apesaki bango mokumba ya kobeta bibetelo mindule mpo na kokumisa Yawe. Banganga-Nzambe bazalaki ya kotalana na Balevi mpe bazalaki kobeta bakelelo; bongo bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki ya kotelema.
And the priests stood in their offices: and the Levites with the instruments of music of the Lord, which king David made to praise the Lord: because his mercy endureth for ever, singing the hymns of David by their ministry: and the priests sounded with trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.
7 Salomo abulisaki lopango ya kati oyo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe abonzaki wana bambeka ya kotumba mpe mafuta ya bambeka ya boyokani; pamba te etumbelo ya bronze oyo Salomo atongaki ekokaki te koyamba bambeka ya kotumba, makabo ya gato mpe mafuta.
Solomon also sanctified the middle of the court before the temple of the Lord: for he offered there the holocausts, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar, which he had made, could not hold the holocausts and the sacrifices and the fat:
8 Boye, na tango wana, Salomo elongo na Isalaele mobimba basalaki feti oyo ewumelaki mikolo sambo; ezalaki lisanga monene ya bato oyo bayaki wuta na Amati kino na mayi oyo etiolaka na kati-kati ya bangomba ya Ejipito.
And Solomon kept the solemnity at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Emath to the torrent of Egypt.
9 Na mokolo ya mwambe, basalaki mayangani monene, pamba te babulisaki etumbelo mikolo sambo mpe basalaki feti mikolo sambo.
And he made on the eighth day a solemn assembly, because he had kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and had celebrated the solemnity seven days.
10 Bongo na mokolo ya tuku mibale na misato ya sanza ya sambo, Salomo azongisaki bato na bandako na bango ya kapo, na esengo mpe na nsayi kati na mitema mpo na bolamu oyo Yawe asalelaki Davidi, Salomo mpe Isalaele, bato na Ye.
So on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent away the people to their dwellings, joyful and glad for the good that the Lord had done to David, and to Solomon, and to all Israel his people.
11 Sima na Salomo kosilisa kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe kokokisa nyonso oyo azalaki na yango na makanisi ya kosala kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe kati na ndako na ye moko,
And Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he had designed in his heart to do, in the house of the Lord, and in his own house, and he prospered.
12 Yawe abimelaki Salomo, na butu, mpe alobaki: — Nayoki losambo na yo mpe naponi esika oyo lokola Ndako ya bambeka mpo na Ngai.
And the Lord appeared to him by night, and said: I have heard thy prayer, and I have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
13 Soki nakangi likolo mpo ete mvula ebeta te to natindi mabanki mpo ete ebebisa mokili to natindi bokono mabe kati na bato,
If I shut up heaven, and there fall no rain, or if I give orders, and command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people:
14 soki bato na Ngai, oyo babengami na Kombo na Ngai bamikitisi, basambeli, baluki elongi na Ngai, mpe bapesi mokongo na banzela na bango ya mabe, Ngai, nakoyoka bango wuta na Likolo, nakolimbisa masumu na bango mpe nakobikisa mokili na bango.
And my people, upon whom my name is called, being converted, shall make supplication to me, and seek out my face, and do penance for their most wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land.
15 Kobanda sik’oyo, miso na Ngai ekofungwama, mpe matoyi na Ngai ekoyoka na bokebi mabondeli oyo ekosalema na esika oyo.
My eyes also shall be open, and my ears attentive to the prayer of him that shall pray in this place.
16 Naponi mpe nabulisi Tempelo wana mpo ete Kombo na Ngai ezala kuna tango nyonso. Miso mpe motema na Ngai ekozala kuna na Tempelo yango mpo na libela.
For I have chosen, and have sanctified this place, that my name may be there for ever, and my eyes and my heart may remain there perpetually.
17 Mpo na yo, soki okotambola liboso na Ngai ndenge Davidi, tata na yo, atambolaki; soki okosala nyonso oyo natindaki yo mpe okobatela mibeko mpe malako na Ngai,
And as for thee, if thou walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and keep my justices and my judgments:
18 nakolendisa kiti na yo ya bokonzi kolanda boyokani oyo nasalaki elongo na Davidi, tata na yo, tango nalobaki: « Okotikalaka kozanga te mokitani mpo na kokamba Isalaele lokola mokonzi. »
I will raise up the throne of thy kingdom, as I promised to David thy father, saying: There shall not fail thee a man of thy stock to be ruler in Israel.
19 Kasi soki bopengwi mosika na Ngai, soki bosundoli mibeko mpe malako na Ngai, oyo natie liboso na bino; soki bokeyi kosalela banzambe mosusu mpe kofukamela yango,
But if you turn away, and forsake my justices, and my commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve strange gods, and adore them,
20 nakopikola bino na mabele na Ngai, mabele oyo napesaki bino; nakobwaka mosika ya miso na Ngai Tempelo oyo nabulisi mpo na Kombo na Ngai mpe nakokomisa yango eloko ya kotiola mpe ya soni kati na bikolo nyonso.
I will pluck you up by the root out of my land which I have given you: and this house which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast away from before my face, and will make it a byword, and an example among all nations.
21 Atako Tempelo oyo ezali sik’oyo kitoko penza, kasi bato nyonso oyo bakoleka pembeni na yango bakokamwa mpe bakoloba: « Mpo na nini Yawe asali makambo ya boye na mokili oyo mpe na Tempelo oyo? »
And this house shall be for a proverb to all that pass by, and they shall be astonished and say: Why hath the Lord done thus to this land, and to this house?
22 Mpe bakoyanola: « Ezali mpo ete basundolaki Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, oyo abimisaki bango na Ejipito mpe bamipesaki na banzambe mosusu, bafukamelaki yango mpe basalelaki yango; yango wana Yawe ayeisi likolo na bango pasi oyo nyonso. »
And they shall answer: Because they forsook the Lord the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on strange gods, and adored them, and worshipped them: therefore all these evils are come upon them.
