2 Tantara 7
1 Ary rehefa vita izany vavak’ i Solomona izany, dia nisy afo latsaka avy tany an-danitra ka nandevona ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà, ka feno ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah ny trano.
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 Ary ny mpisorona tsy nahazo niditra tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, satria feno ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah ny tranony.
And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD filled the LORD'S house.
3 Ary nony hitan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra ny nilatsahan’ ny afo sy ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah teo ambonin’ ny trano, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny lampivato izy ka nivavaka sy nidera an’ i Jehovah, fa tsara Izy, fa mandrakizay ny famindram-pony.
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 Ary ny mpanjaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra dia namono zavatra hatao fanatitra teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
And the king and all the people offered sacrifice before the LORD.
5 Ary Solomona mpanjaka namono zavatra hatao fanatitra, dia omby roa arivo amby roa alina sy ondry aman’ osy roa alina amby iray hetsy. Toy izany no nitokanan’ ny mpanjaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra ny tranon’ Andriamanitra.
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 Ary ny mpisorona samy nitsangana hanao ny anjara-raharahany avy; ny Levita koa nanana ny zava-manenon’ i Jehovah, izay nataon’ i Davida mpanjaka hiderana an’ i Jehovah, fa mandrakizay ny famindram-pony, raha nasain’ i Davida nidera an’ Andriamanitra izy; ary ny mpisorona nitsoka ny trompetra teo anoloany, ary ny Isiraely rehetra nitsangana teo.
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 Ary Solomona nanamasina ny afovoan’ ny kianja izay teo anoloan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah; fa tao no nanaterany ny fanatitra dorana sy ny saboran’ ny fanati-pihavavana; fa ny alitara varahina izay nataon’ i Solomona dia tsy omby ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra hohanina ary ny sabora.
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 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany Solomona ny Isiraely rehetra izay teo aminy, dia nangonana lehibe hatrany akaikin’ i Hamata ka hatramin’ ny lohasahan-driak’ i Egypta, dia nitandrina ny andro firavoravoana hafitoana.
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 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahavalo dia nanao fara-fivoriana Izy; fa hafitoana no nitandremany ny fitokanana ny alitara, ary hafitoana koa ny andro firavoravoana.
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 Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana fahafito dia nampodiny ho Eny an-dainy avy ny olona, ary faly sy ravoravo izy noho ny soa nataon’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Davida sy Solomona ary ny Isiraely olony.
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 Toy izany no nahavitan’ i Solomona ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana, ary samy nataon’ i Solomona lavorary avokoa zay rehetra efa voaheviny hatao tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy tao an-dapany.
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 Ary Jehovah niseho tamin’ i Solomona nony alina ka nanao taminy hoe: Efa reko ny vavakao, ary efa nofidiko ho Ahy ity fitoerana ity ho trano fanateram-panatitra.
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 Koa, indro, raha mampihantona ny andro Aho, ka tsy misy ranonorana latsaka, na asaiko mandany ny tany ny valala, na anaterako areti-mandringana ny oloko,
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 raha ny oloko izay nantsoina amin’ ny anarako ho avy hanetry tena ka hivavaka sy hitady ny tavako ary hiala amin’ ny ratsy fanaony, dia hihaino any an-danitra Aho ka hamela ny helony ary hahasitrana ny taniny.
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 Ary izao dia hihiratra ny masoko, ary ny sofiko hihaino ny vavaka Izay atao amin’ ity fitoerana ity;
Now Mine eyes shall be open, and Mine ears attent, unto the prayer that is made in this place.
16 fa efa nofidiko sy nohamasiniko ity trano ity mba hitoeran’ ny anarako mandrakizay, ary ny masoko sy ny foko ho ao mandrakariva.
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 Ary ny aminao, raha handeha eo anatrehako tahaka ny nandehanan’ i Davida rainao ianao ka hanao araka izay andidiako anao sy hitandrina ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko,
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 dia hampitoeriko ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakanao, araka ny fanekeko tamin’ i Davida rainao hoe: Tsy ho diso zanakalahy ho mpanapaka amin’ ny Isiraely ianao.
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 Fa raha mivily kosa ianareo ka mahafoy ny didiko sy ny lalako, izay nataoko teo anoloanareo, ka mandeha manompo andriamani-kafa sy miankohoka eo anatrehany
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 dia hongotako amin’ ny tany izay nomeko anareo; ary hofongorako tsy ho eo imasoko ity trano nohamasiniko ho an’ ny anarako ity sady hataoko ho ohabolana sy ho ambentinteny any amin’ ny firenena rehetra.
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 Ary na dia avo aza ity trano ity, dia ho fitalanjonan’ izay rehetra mandalo azy ka hatao hoe: Naninona re no dia nataon’ i Jehovah toy izao ity tany sy ity trano ity?
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 Ary hisy hamaly hoe: Satria nahafoy an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, Izay nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy ka nikikitra tamin’ andriamani-kafa sady niankohoka teo anatrehany sy nanompo azy, koa izany no nampidirany izao loza rehetra izao taminy.
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.'
