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.
Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt-offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.
2 Banganga-Nzambe bakokaki te kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe, pamba te nkembo na Yawe etondisaki yango.
And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD filled the LORD'S house.
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! »
And all the children of Israel looked on, when the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD was upon the house; and they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and prostrated themselves, and gave thanks unto the LORD; 'for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.'
4 Mokonzi mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele babonzaki bambeka liboso ya Yawe.
And the king and all the people offered sacrifice 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 and two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So 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, according to their offices; the Levites also with instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had made, to give thanks unto the LORD, for His mercy endureth for ever, with the praises of David by their hand; and the priests sounded trumpets over against 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.
Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD; for there he offered the burnt-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings; because the brazen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt-offering, and the meal-offering, 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.
So Solomon held the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of Egypt.
9 Na mokolo ya mwambe, basalaki mayangani monene, pamba te babulisaki etumbelo mikolo sambo mpe basalaki feti mikolo sambo.
And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast 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.
And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away unto their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that the LORD had shown unto David, and to Solomon, and to 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,
Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.
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 Solomon by night, and said unto him: 'I have heard thy prayer, and 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 that there be no rain, or if I 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.
if My people, upon whom My name is called, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their evil ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, 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.
Now Mine eyes shall be open, and Mine ears attent, unto the prayer that is made 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 now have I chosen and hallowed this house, that My name may be there for ever; and Mine eyes and My heart shall be 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 wilt walk before Me as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep My statutes and Mine ordinances;
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. »
then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I covenanted with David thy father, saying: There shall not fail thee a man 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 ye turn away, and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship 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.
then will I pluck them up by the roots out of My land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for My name, will I cast out of My sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
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, which is so high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall say: Why hath the LORD done thus unto 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 forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them; therefore hath He brought all this evil upon them.'
