1 Tantara 22

1 Dia hoy Davida: Eto no ho tranon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra, ary eto no ho alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana ho an’ ny Isiraely.

And David says, “This is the house of YHWH God, and this [is] the altar for burnt-offering for Israel.”

2 Ary nasain’ i Davida novorina ny olona hafa firenena izay tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely, ka nanendreny tambato hipai-bato hanaovana ny tranon’ Andriamanitra.

And David says to gather the sojourners who [are] in the land of Israel, and appoints hewers to hew hewn-stones to build a house of God.

3 Ary Davida nahavonona vy betsaka hatao hombon’ ny lela-vavahady sy ny fikambanany, ary varahina betsaka tsy hita lanja

And David has prepared iron in abundance for nails for leaves of the gates and for couplings, and bronze in abundance—there is no weighing,

4 sy hazo sedera tsy hita isa; fa ny mponina tany Sidona sy Tyro nitondra hazo sedera betsaka ho any amin’ i Davida.

and cedar-trees without number, for the Zidonians and the Tyrians brought in cedar-trees in abundance to David.

5 Fa hoy Davida: Solomona zanako mbola zaza sady tanora fanahy, ary ny trano hatao ho an’ i Jehovah dia tsy maintsy ho lehibe indrindra, mba hiely any amin’ ny tany rehetra ny lazany sy ny voninahiny, koa hovononiko rahateo ny zavatra ho enti-manao azy. Ka dia nahavonona betsaka Davida, raha mbola velona izy.

And David says, “My son Solomon [is] a youth and tender, and the house to be built for YHWH [is] to be made exceedingly great, for renown and for beauty to all the lands; now let me prepare for it”; and David prepares in abundance before his death.

6 Ary niantso an’ i Solomona zanany izy va nandidy azy hanao trano ho an’ i Jehovah, andriamanitry ny Isiraely,

And he calls for his son Solomon, and charges him to build a house for YHWH, God of Israel,

7 ary nanao taminy hoe: Anaka, efa mby tato am-poko ny hanao trano ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro;

and David says to his son Solomon, “As for me, it has been with my heart to build a house for the Name of my God YHWH,

8 saingy nisy tenin’ i Jehovah tonga tamiko nanao hoe: Be ny rà efa nalatsakao, ary ady lehibe no efa nataonao; koa tsy mahazo manao trano ho an’ ny anarako ianao, satria be ny rà efa nalatsakao tamin’ ny tany teo imasoko.

and the word of YHWH [is] against me, saying, You have shed blood in abundance, and you have made great wars; you do not build a house for My Name, for you have shed much blood to the earth before Me.

9 Fa, indro, ianao hiteraka zazalahy, izay ho lehilahy miadana, ary hampiadaniko tsy hisy hahazo azy ny fahavalony rehetra manodidina; koa ny anarany dia hatao hoe Solomona; ary hampiadaniko sy hampandriko fahizay ny Isiraely amin’ ny androny.

Behold, a son is born to you; he is a man of rest, and I have given rest to him from all his surrounding enemies, for Solomon is his name, and I give peace and quietness to Israel in his days;

10 Izy no hanao trano ho an’ ny anarako; ary izy ho zanako, ary Izaho ho rainy, ary Izaho hampitoetra ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakany amin’ ny Isiraely mandrakizay.

he builds a house for My Name, and he is to Me for a son, and I [am] to him for a father, and I have established the throne of his kingdom over Israel for all time.

11 Koa ankehitriny, anaka, ho aminao anie Jehovah, ka hambinina anie ianao, fa ataovy ny tranon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao araka izay nilazany anao.

Now my son, YHWH is with you, and you have prospered, and have built the house of your God YHWH, as He spoke concerning you.

12 Ary homen’ i Jehovah saina sy fahendrena anie ianao ka hatsangany ho mpanapaka ny Isiraely, mba hitandremanao ny lalan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao.

Only, may YHWH give wisdom and understanding to you, and charge you concerning Israel, even to keep the Law of your God YHWH;

13 Ary amin’ izany dia hambinina ianao, raha mitandrina hankatò ny lalàna sy ny fitsipika izay nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy ho an’ ny Isiraely; mahereza sy matanjaha; aza matahotra na mivadi-po.

then you prosper, if you observe to do the statutes and the judgments that YHWH charged Moses with concerning Israel; be strong and courageous; do not fear, nor be cast down.

14 Ary, he! fa na dia be fahoriana aza aho, dia nahavory talenta volamena iray hetsy sy talenta volafotsy iray tapitrisa ary varahina sy vy betsaka tsy hita lanja ho enti-manao ny tranon’ i Jehovah; ary efa nahavonona hazo sy vato koa aho; ka dia ampionao kosa ireo.

And behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of YHWH one hundred thousand talents of gold, and one million talents of silver; and of bronze and of iron there is no weighing, for it has been in abundance; and I have prepared wood and stones, and you add to them.

15 Ary koa, efa manana mpiasa betsaka ianao, dia mpikapa hazo sy tambato sy mpandrafitra ary olona mahay ny asa samy hafa rehetra.

And with you in abundance [are] workmen, hewers and craftsmen of stone and of wood, and every skillful man for every work.

16 Ny volamena sy ny volafotsy ary ny varahina sy ny vy dia tsy hita isa. Koa mitsangàna ianao, ka manaova, ary homba anao anie Jehovah.

Of the gold, of the silver, and of the bronze, and of the iron, there is no number; arise and do, and YHWH is with you.”

17 Ary Davida nandidy ny lehibe rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely hanampy an’ i Solomona zanany hoe:

And David gives charge to all heads of Israel to give help to his son Solomon, [saying],

18 Tsy momba anareo va Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ka efa nampiadana anareo amin’ ny manodidina? Fa efa natolony teo an-tanako ny mponina amin’ ny tany; ary ny tany efa resy teo anoloan’ i Jehovah sy teo anoloan’ ny olony.

“Is your God YHWH not with you? Indeed, He has given rest to you all around, for He has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand, and the land has been subdued before His people.

19 Koa ankehitriny ampitadiavo an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ny fonareo sy ny fanahinareo, ka mitsangàna, ary manaova ny fitoerana masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra, hampidirana ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah sy ny fanaka masin’ Andriamanitra ho ao amin’ ny trano izay hatao ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah.

Now give your heart and your soul to seek for your God YHWH, and rise and build the sanctuary of YHWH God, to bring in the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, and the holy vessels of God, to the house that is built for the Name of YHWH.”
