1 Tantara 29

1 Ary hoy Davida mpanjaka tamin’ ny fiangonana rehetra: Solomona zanako, ilay nofidin’ Andriamanitra, dia mbola zaza sy tanora fanahy; nefa lehibe ny asa, fa tsy lapa ho an’ olona, fa ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra.

Then said David the king unto all the convocation, Solomon my son, the one, of whom God hath made choice, is young and tender, —and, the work, is great, seeing that, not for man, is the palace, but for Yahweh Elohim.

2 Ary tamin’ ny heriko rehetra no namoriako izay hanaovana ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, dia ny volamena hanaovana ny fanaka volamena, ary ny volafotsy hanaovana ny fanaka volafotsy, ary ny varahina hanaovana ny fanaka varahina, ary ny vy hanaovana ny fanaka vy, ary ny hazo hanaovana ny fanaka hazo, ary ny vato beryla sy ny vato halatsaka an-tranontranony ary ny vato alatsaka asiana antimony sy ny vato misoratsoratra ary ny vato soa samy hafa rehetra ary ny vatosanga betsaka.

And, with all my might, have I made preparation for the house of my God, the gold for the gold, and the silver for the silver, and the bronze for the bronze, the iron for the iron, and the wood for the wood, —and beryl stones and settings, stones coloured and particoloured, and all manner of precious stones and stones of white marble, in abundance.

3 Ary koa, noho ny fitiavako ny tranon’ Andriamanitro dia omeko ho an’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, ho fanampin’ ny zavatra rehetra novoriko hanaovana ny tempoly masìna, izay volamena sy volafotsy ananako,

And yet further, because of my delighting in the house of my God, having a treasure of mine own in gold and silver, I have given for the house of my God, above and beyond all that I have prepared for the holy house:

4 dia talenta volamena telo arivo, volamena avy any Ofira, ary talenta volafotsy voadio fito arivo hapetaka amin’ ny rindrin’ ny isan-efi-trano,

three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, —and seven thousand talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the recesses.

5 ny volamena hanaovana ny fanaka volamena ary ny volafotsy hanaovana ny fanaka volafotsy sy hanaovana ny fanaka volafotsy sy hanaovana ny asa samy hafa rehetra izay hataon’ ny tanan’ ny mpiasa mahay tao-zavatra. Iza ary no mazoto hitondra fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah anio?

Of gold for the gold, and of silver for the silver, and for all manner of work in the hand of artificers, —Who then is ready to offer willingly, by filling his hand to-day, unto Yahweh?

6 Dia samy nazoto nanatitra zavatra ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana sy ny lehiben’ ny firenen’ Isiraely ary ny mpifehy arivo sy ny mpifehy zato mbamin’ ny mpitandrina ny raharahan’ ny mpanjaka

Then offered they willingly—the ancestral rulers and the rulers of the tribes of Israel, and the rulers of thousands and hundreds, even to the rulers of the work of the king;

7 ka nanome izay hanaovana ny fanompoana amin’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, dia talenta volamena dimy arivo sy darika iray alina sy talenta volafotsy iray alina sy talenta varahina valo arivo amby iray alina ary talenta vy iray hetsy.

and gave for the service of the house of God, of gold, five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and, of silver, ten thousand talents, and, of bronze, eighteen thousand talents, —and, of iron, one hundred thousand talents.

8 Ary izay nanana vato soa dia nanome azy no amin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah, hotehirizin’ i Jehiela Gersonita.

And, every one with whom were found precious stones, gave to the treasure of the house of Yahweh, —unto the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

9 Dia faly ny vahoaka noho ny fahazotoan’ ireo, fa tamin’ ny fony rehetra no nahazotoany nanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah; ary Davida mpanjaka koa faly dia faly.

So the people rejoiced because they willingly offered, for, with a perfect heart, offered they willingly unto Yahweh, —moreover also, David the king, rejoiced with great joy.

10 Koa dia nisaotra an’ i Jehovah teo anatrehan’ ny fiangonana rehetra Davida ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie Hianao, Jehovah ô, Andriamanitr’ Isiraely razanay, hatramin’ ny taloha indrindra ka ho mandrakizay.

Therefore did David bless Yahweh in the eyes of all the convocation, —and David said, Blessed art thou, O Yahweh, the God of Israel our father, from age even unto age.

11 Anao, Jehovah ô, ny fahalehibiazana sy ny hery sy ny voninahitra sy ny famirapiratana ary ny fiandrianana, dia izay rehetra any an-danitra sy etỳ an-tany; Anao ny fanjakana, Jehovah ô, ary Anao ny fisandratana ho Lohany ambonin’ izy rehetra.

Thine, O Yahweh, are Greatness, and Might, and Beauty, and Victory, and Majesty, nay! all in the heavens and in the earth, —thine, O Yahweh, is the kingdom, who art exalted above all, —as chief;

12 Avy aminao ny harena sy ny voninahitra, ary Hianao no manjaka amin’ izao rehetra izao; eo an-tananao ny hery sy ny tanjaka, ka eo an-tananao koa ny mampahalehibe sy ny mampahatanjaka izao rehetra izao.

and, riches and honour, are from before thee, and, thou, art ruling over all, and, in thy hand, are power and might, —and, in thy hand, it is, to give greatness and strength unto any.

13 Koa ankehitriny misaotra Anao izahay, ry Andriamanitray ô, sy midera ny anaranao be voninahitra.

Now, therefore, O our God, we are giving thanks unto thee, —and offering praise, unto thy beautiful Name.

14 Fa zinona moa aho, ary zinona moa ny oloko, no ahazoanay hery hanatitra toy izao? Fa avy aminao ny zavatra rehetra, ary avy tamin’ ny Anao ihany no nanomezanay Anao.

And yet, who am, I, and who are my people, that we should be able to offer willingly like this? for, from thee, is the whole, and, out of thine own hand, have we given unto thee;

15 Fa vahiny sy mpivahiny eo anatrehanao izahay tahaka ny razanay rehetra; tahaka ny aloka ny andronay etỳ an-tany, ka tsy misy fanantenana.

for, sojourners, are we before thee, and strangers, like all our fathers, —like a shadow, are our days upon the earth, and there is no hope.

16 Ry Jehovah Andriamanitray ô, ireto zavatra rehetra novorinay hanaovana ny trano ho an’ ny anaranao masìna ireto dia avy tamin’ ny tananao, ary Anao rahateo izy rehetra.

O Yahweh our God, all this abundance which we have prepared, to build thee a house for thy holy Name, out of thine own hand, it is, and, thine, is the whole.

17 Ary fantatro, ry Andriamanitro ô, fa Hianao no mamantatra ny fo ary mankasitraka izay mahitsy. Ary ny amiko, dia amin’ ny hitsim-poko no nahazotoako nanatitra ireto zavatra rehetra ireto; ary ankehitriny efa hitako tamin’ ny fifaliana ny olonao, izay vory eto, mazoto mitondra fanatitra ho Anao.

But I know, O my God, that, thou, art proving the heart, and, with uprightness, wilt thou be pleased, —I, in the uprightness of my heart, have willingly offered all these things, now, therefore, thy people who are found here, have I seen with joy, offering willingly unto thee.

18 Jehovah ô, Andriamanitry ny razanay, dia Abrahama sy Isaka ary Isiraely, mba ampahareto ao am-pon’ ny olonao mandrakizay izany fikasan’ ny sainy izany, ka ampiomany ho Anao ny fony;

O Yahweh, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, oh guard this age-abidingly, as the devised purpose of the heart of thy people, —and establish thou their heart, unto thyself.

19 ary omeo fo marina Solomona zanako hitandrina ny didinao sy ny teni-vavolombelonao sy ny lalànao ka hanao izany rehetra izany sady hahavita ny lapa izay efa namoriako ny hanaovana azy.

Also, unto Solomon my son, give thou an undivided heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, —to do the whole, and to build the palace for which I have prepared.

20 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ ny fiangonana rehetra: Masìna ianareo, misaora an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo. Ary ny fiangonana rehetra dia nisaotra an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, sady niondrika ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah sy ny mpanjaka.

Then said David, unto all the convocation, Bless, I beseech you, Yahweh your God. So all the convocation blessed Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and did bend their heads and bow themselves down unto Yahweh, and unto the king;

21 Ary namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah izy sady nanatitra fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah nony ampitson’ iny, dia vantotr’ ombilahy arivo sy ondrilahy arivo ary zanak’ ondry arivo mbamin’ ny fanatitra aidina momba ireo ary fanatitra hafa be dia be ho an’ ny Isiraely rehetra.

and sacrificed unto Yahweh sacrifices, and caused to go up ascending-offerings unto Yahweh, on the morrow of that day, a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, a thousand young sheep, and the drink-offerings thereof, —and sacrifices in abundance, for all Israel.

22 Ary nihinana sy nisotro tamin’ ny fifaliana be teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ny olona tamin’ izany andro izany. Ary nampanjakainy fanindroany Solomona, zanak’ i Davida, sady nohosorany ho an’ i Jehovah ho mpanapaka, ary Zadoka ho mpisorona.

And so they did eat and drink before Yahweh on that day, with great joy, —and they, the second time, made Solomon son of David king, and anointed him unto Yahweh to be chief ruler, and Zadok to be priest.

23 Ary Solomona dia nipetraka tamin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ i Jehovah ho mpanjaka handimby an’ i Davida rainy, sady nambinina izy, ka nanaiky azy ny Isiraely rehetra.

So Solomon took his seat upon the throne of Yahweh, as king, instead of David his father, and prospered, —and all Israel, hearkened unto him.

24 Ary ny mpifehy rehetra sy ny lehilahy mahery ary ny zanak’ i Davida rehetra koa dia samy nanaiky an’ i Solomona mpanjaka.

And, all the rulers, and the heroes, yea moreover all the sons of King David, gave a hand, under Solomon the king.

25 Ary Jehovah nanandratra an’ i Solomona indrindra teo imason’ ny Isiraely rehetra sady nanome azy voninahitry ny fiandrianana mihoatra noho ny mpanjaka rehetra talohany teo amin’ ny Isiraely.

And Yahweh magnified Solomon, exceedingly, before the eyes of all Israel, —and gave unto him a royal majesty, that had not been on any king before him, over Israel.

26 Toy izany no nanjakan’ i Davida, zanak’ i Jese, tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra.

Thus, David son of Jesse, reigned over all Israel;

27 Ary ny andro nanjakany tamin’ ny Isiraely dia efa-polo taona; tao Hebrona no nanjakany fito taona, ary tany Jerosalema no nanjakany telo amby telo-polo taona.

and, the days that he reigned over Israel, were forty years, —in Hebron reigned he seven years, and in Jerusalem, reigned he, thirty-three.

28 Ary maty izy rehefa tratrantitra tsara sady lava andro ary be harena sy voninahitra; ary Solomona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

And he died in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches and honour, —and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.

29 Ary ny tantaran’ i Davida mpanjaka, na ny voalohany na ny farany, indro fa efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ i Samoela mpahita sy ao amin’ ny bokin’ i Natana mpaminany ary ao amin’ ny bokin’ i Gada mpahita izany,

Now, the acts of David the king, first and last, behold them! written in the records of Samuel the seer, and in the records of Nathan the prophet, and in the records of Gad the seer:

30 mbamin’ ny nanjakany rehetra sy ny heriny, ary izay niseho tamin’ ny ary tamin’ ny Isiraely sy tamin’ ny fanjakana rehetra tamin’ ny tany.

with all his reign, and his might, —and the times which passed over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the lands.
