2 Tantara 6
1 Le hoe t’i Selomò: Fa nafè’ Iehovà t’ie ho nimoneñe añ’ ieñe mingeo ao.
Then Solomon said: “The Lord has promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
2 Fe nandranjieko anjombam-pimoneñan-dRehe, toetse hitobea’o nainai’e.
But I have built a house to his name, so that he may dwell there forever.”
3 Nampitoli-daharañe amy zao i mpanjakay naho nitata i valobohò’ Israele iabiy, ie fonga nijohañe eo i fivoribei’ Israeley.
And the king turned his face, and he blessed the entire multitude of Israel, (for the whole crowd was standing and attentive) and he said:
4 Le hoe re: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele nitsara am-palie amy Davide raeko vaho nihenefem-pità’e, ami’ty hoe:
“Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who has completed the work that he spoke to David my father, saying:
5 Sikal’ amy andro nampiavotako an-tane Mitsraime añe ondatikooy, tsy eo ty rova jinoboko amo fifokoa’ Israeleo hañamboarako anjomba, te ho ao ty añarako; vaho tsy ia t’indaty jinoboko ho mpifehe’ ondatiko Israeleo
‘From the day when I led my people away from the land of Egypt, I did not choose a city from all the tribes of Israel, so that a house would be built in it to my name. And I did not choose any other man, so that he would be the ruler of my people Israel.
6 naho tsy e Ierosalaime ao ty jinoboko hanoako ty añarako naho tsy i Davide ty jinoboko hifelek’ ondatiko Israeleo.
But I chose Jerusalem, so that my name would be in it. And I chose David, so that I might appoint him over my people Israel.’
7 Ie amy zao tañ’ arofo’ i Davide raeko t’ie hamboatse anjomba ho amy tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
And though David, my father, had decided that he would build a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel,
8 Fe hoe t’Iehovà aman-Davide raeko: Ndra te añ’ arofo’o ty handranjy anjomba ho ami’ty añarako toe nanoe’o soa t’ie tami’ty tañ’ arofo’o;
the Lord said to him: ‘In so far as it was your will that you build a house to my name, certainly you have done well in having such a will.
9 tsy ihe ty hamboatse i anjombay, fa hamboare’ i ana’o hiboak’ am-bania’oy, ty akiba ho ami’ty añarako.
But you shall not build the house. Truly, your son, who will go forth from your loins, shall build a house to my name.’
10 Aa le najado’ Iehovà i tsara’ tsinara’ey; izaho ty nitroatse amy toe’ i Davide raekoy, le fa mitobok’ am-piambesa’ Israele, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày vaho fa nandranjiako anjomba ho ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele.
Therefore, the Lord has accomplished his word, which he had spoken. And I have risen up in place of my father David, and I sit upon the throne of Israel, just as the Lord spoke. And I have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
11 Le fa napoko ao i vata amam-pañina nifanoa’ Iehovà amo ana’ Israeleoy.
And I have placed in it the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord that he formed with the sons of Israel.”
12 Aa le nijohañe aolo’ i kitreli’ Iehovà añatrefa’ i valobohò’ Israele iabiy re namelatse o fità’eo—
Then he stood before the altar of the Lord, facing the entire multitude of Israel, and he extended his hands.
13 Toe fa nandranjy rairay torisike t’i Selomò, kiho lime ty andava’e, kiho lime ty ampohe’e naho kiho telo ty haabo’e vaho napo’e añivo’ i kiririsay; eo ty nijohaña’e naho nitongalefa’e añ’ ongotse añatrefa’ i valobohò’ Israeley namela-pitàñe mb’ andikerañe ey,
For indeed, Solomon had made a bronze base, and he had positioned it in the midst of the hall; it held five cubits in length, and five cubits in width, and three cubits in height. And he stood upon it. And next, kneeling down while facing the entire multitude of Israel, and lifting up his palms towards heaven,
14 vaho nanao ty hoe, Ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeleo, tsy aman’ Añahare manahak’ azo ty andindiñe ao ndra an-tane atoy, ty mahatam-pañina vaho manolotse fiferenaiñañe amo mpitoro’o mañavelo añatrefa’o an-kaliforan’arofoo;
he said: “O Lord God of Israel, there is no god like you in heaven or on earth. You preserve covenant and mercy with your servants, who walk before you with all their hearts.
15 ie fa nifahara’o aman-draeko Davide mpitoro’o i nampitama’o azey, Eka toe tsinara’o am-palie vaho nihenefa’o am-pitàñe, le ie henanekeo.
You fulfilled for your servant David, my father, whatsoever you had said to him. And you carried out the deed that you promised with your mouth, just as the present time proves.
16 Ie amy zao ry Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, tambozoro i nitsarae’o amy mpitoro’o Davide raekoy, ty hoe: Tsy ho po-ondaty am-pahaisahako eo ty hiambesatse amy fiambesa’ Israeley naho songa hañambeñe ty lala’e o ana’oo hañavelo amy Hake natolokoy manahake i nañaveloa’o aolokoy.
Now then, O Lord God of Israel, fulfill for your servant David, my father, whatsoever you said to him, saying: ‘There shall not fail to be a man from you before me, who will sit upon the throne of Israel, yet only if your sons will guard their ways, and will walk in my law, just as you also have walked before me.’
17 Aa le venteo i tsara’oy henaneo ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, i tsinara’o amy mpitoro’o Davideiy.
And now, O Lord God of Israel, let your word be confirmed that you spoke to your servant David.
18 Aa vaho toe himoneñe am’ondaty an-tane atoio hao t’i Andrianañahare, ie tsy tsahats’ Azo o andindin-dikerañeo, àntsake o anjomba rinanjikoo?
How then is it to be believed that God would dwell with men upon the earth? If heaven and the heavens of the heavens do not contain you, how much less this house that I have built?
19 Fe mb’e haoñe’o ty filolofam-pitoro’o naho i fihalalia’ey, ry Iehovà Andrianañahareko, hahajanjiñe ty toreo naho soloho isolohoa’ ty mpitoro’o añatrefa’o etoy;
But it has been done for this only, so that you may look with favor upon the prayer of your servant, and on his supplication, O Lord my God, and so that you may hear the prayers which your servant pours out before you,
20 te hisokake mb’ami’ty anjomba toy handro an-kaleñe o fihaino’oo, mb’amy toetse nanoe’o ty hoe te hapo’o ao i tahina’oiy, hijanjiña’o o halaly ihalalia’ o mpitoro’oo mb’ amy toetse toio;
and so that you may open your eyes over this house, day and night, over the place where you promised that your name would be invoked,
21 naho ho haoñe’o o solohom-pitoro’oo naho ondati’o Israeleo, ie hihalaly mb’ ami’ty toetse toy; eka, mijanjiña am-pimoneña’o andikerañ’ ao; le ie mijanjin-dRehe, afaho.
and so that you may heed the prayer which your servant is praying within it, and so that you may heed the prayers of your servant and of your people Israel. Whoever will pray in this place, listen from your habitation, that is, from heaven, and forgive.
22 Aa naho manao hakeo ama’ ondaty t’indaty naho ampititiheñe am-panta naho miheo mb’ añ’ anjomba’o mb’etoa vaho mifanta añ’ atrefa’ i kitreliy;
If anyone will have sinned against his neighbor, and he arrives to swear against him, and to bind himself with a curse before the altar in this house,
23 le mijanjiña andindiñe ao naho ano vaho zakao an-katò o mpitoro’oo, le ondroho an-doha’ i tsivokatsey i sata’ey vaho hahao ty vantañe, le anoloro ty amy havantaña’ey.
you will hear him from heaven, and you will execute justice for your servants, so that you return, to the iniquitous man, his own way upon his own head, and so that you vindicate the just man, repaying him according to his own justice.
24 Aa naho linafa ambane aolo’ o rafelahi’eo ondati’o Israeleo, ie anaña’o hakeo vaho mitolike mamela-pitàn-droe, miantoke ty tahina’o, mihalaly naho misoloho ama’o mbañ’ anjomba’o atoy;
If your people Israel will have been overwhelmed by their enemies, (for they will sin against you) and having been converted will do penance, and if they will have beseeched your name, and will have prayed in this place,
25 le mijanjiña an-dindiñ’ao naho apoho ty tahi’ ondati’o Israeleo vaho ampolio mb’ an-tane natolo’o iareo naho aman-droae’ iareo.
you will heed them from heaven, and you will forgive the sin of your people Israel, and you will lead them back into the land that you gave to them and to their fathers.
26 Aa naho mirindriñe i likerañey naho tsy avy i orañey, amy te nanao tahiñe ama’o iereo, le ie mihalaly mb’ami’ty toetse toy naho mamela-pitàñe miantoke i tahina’o naho mitolik’ amy hakeo’ iareoy, ie fa nilafae’o,
If the heavens have been closed, so that rain does not fall, because of the sin of the people, and if they will petition you in this place, and confess to your name, and be converted from their sins when you will afflict them,
27 le mijanjiña an-dindiñe ao vaho apoho ty hakeo’ o mpitoro’oo naho ondati’o Israeleo, le tehafo mb’an-dalan-tsoa fañaveloañe; le mampahavia orañe an-tane’o nampandovae’o ondati’oo.
heed them from heaven, O Lord, and forgive the sins of your servants and of your people Israel, and teach them the good way, by which they may advance, and give rain to the land that you gave to your people as a possession.
28 Aa naho mametsa-kasalikoañe i taney, he te voa ty angorosy, ke ty pozy ndra tromambo, ke ty valala ndra ty oletse; hera arikatoha’ o rafelahi’eo an-tane ndra an-drova’ iareo ao; ndra kiria inoñe ndra hatindriañ’ inoñe;
If a famine will have risen up in the land, or pestilence, or fungus, or mildew, or locusts, or beetles, or if enemies will have laid waste to the countryside and will have besieged the gates of the cities, or whatever scourge or infirmity will have pressed upon them,
29 le ze halaly naho soloho anoa’ t’indaty, ndra ondati’o Israele iabio, ie songa mahafohiñe i arete’ey naho i fangirifiri’ey vaho mamela-pitàñe mb’ ami’ty anjomba toy;
if anyone from your people Israel, knowing his own scourge and infirmity, will have made supplication and will have extended his hands in this house,
30 le mijanjiña boak’ am-pimoneña’o andikerañe añe, le songa anoloro ty amo hene sata’eo, ie arofoana’o ty arofo’e —amy te Ihe avao ro maharofoanañe o arofon’ ana’ ondatio—
you will heed him from heaven, indeed from your sublime habitation, and you will forgive, and you will repay each one according to his ways, which you know him to hold in his heart. For you alone know the hearts of the sons of men.
31 soa te hañeveña’e, hañavelo amo lala’oo amy ze hene andro iveloma’e amy tane natolo’o aman-droae’aiy.
So may they fear you, and so may they walk in your ways, during all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which you gave to our fathers.
32 Le o renetane tsy am’ ondati’o Israeleoo, ie pok’eo boak’ an-tsietoitane añe ty amy tahina’o ra’elahiy naho ty fità’o maozatse vaho ty fità’o natorakitsy le ie mb’ etoa hihalaly mb’ ami’ty anjomba toy;
Also, if the outsider, who is not from your people Israel, will have arrived from a far away land, because of your great name, and because of your robust hand and your outstretched arm, and if he will adore in this place,
33 le mijanjiña am-pimoneña’o an-dikerañe añe, le ano ze hene ikanjia’ i renetaney; soa te fonga hahafohiñe ty tahina’o ondati’ ty tane toio naho hañeveñe manahake ondati’o Israeleo vaho ho fohi’ iereo te kanjiañe ami’ty anjomba namboareko toy i tahina’oy.
you will heed him from heaven, your most firm habitation, and you will accomplish all the things about which this sojourner will have called out to you, so that all the people of the earth may know your name, and may fear you, just as your people Israel do, and so that they may know that your name is invoked over this house, which I have built.
34 Aa ie mionjomb’ an-kotakotak’ amo rafelahi’eo ondati’oo, mb’amy ze lalañe añiraha’o iareo naho mihalaly ama’o mb’ami’ty rova jinobo’o toy naho mb’ ami’ ty anjomba niranjieko ho amy tahina’o toy;
If, having gone out to war against their adversaries along the way that you will send them, your people adore you facing in the direction of this city, which you have chosen, and of this house, which I have built to your name,
35 le janjiño i halali’ iareoy naho o soloho’ iareoo vaho henefo ty fitsakorean-tro’ iareo.
you will heed their prayers from heaven, and their supplications, and you will vindicate them.
36 Aa ie anaña’o tahiñe (toe tsy eo t’indaty tsy mandilatse) naho iviñera’o naho atolo’o amo rafelahi’ iareoo vaho asese an-drohy mb’an-tane lavits’ añe ndra marine eo;
But if they will have sinned against you (for there is no man who does not sin) and you will have become angry against them, and if you will have delivered them to their enemies, and so they lead them away as captives to a far away land, or even to one that is near,
37 f’ie mitsakore an-trok’ao an-tane naneseañe iareo an-drohy añe naho mitolike, misoloho ama’o an-tanem-pandrohiza’ iareo ao, manao ty hoe: Nandilatse zahay, nitoloñ’ an-tahiñe, nanao hakeo;
and if, having been converted in their heart in the land to which they had been led as captives, they will do penance, and beseech you in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned; we have committed iniquity; we have acted unjustly,’
38 le ie mimpoly ama’o an-kaampon’arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova, an-tanem-pandrohizañ’ ao, amy naneseañe iareo an-drohiy vaho mihalaly mb’ amy tane natolo’o aman-droae’ iareoy naho mb’amy rova jinobo’oy, mb’amo anjomba niranjieko amy tahina’oio,
and if they will have returned to you, with their whole heart and with their whole soul, in the land of their captivity to which they were led away, and if they will adore you in the direction of their own land, which you gave to their fathers, and of the city, which you have chosen, and of the house, which I have built to your name,
39 le mijanjiña an-dindiñey, am-pimoneña’o ao, o halali’ iareoo naho o soloho’ iareoo, le añomezo to ty amo enta’ iareoo; vaho apoho ty hakeo’ ondati’o nandilatse ama’oo.
from heaven, that is, from your firm habitation, you will heed their prayers, and you will accomplish judgment, and you will forgive your people, even though they are sinners.
40 Ie henane zao, ry Andrianañahareko, ehe te hisokake o fihaino’oo naho ho janjiñen-dravembia’o ty halaly taroñeñe ami’ty toetse toy.
For you are my God. Let your eyes be open, I beg you, and let your ears be attentive to the prayer that is made in this place.
41 Aa le miongaha mb’an-toem-pitofà’o eo ry Iehovà Andrianañahare, Ihe naho ty vatan-kaozara’o; Ee te hisarom-pandrombahañe abey ry Iehovà Andrianañahare, o mpisoro’oo, le hirebek’ ami’ty hasoa o noro’oo.
Now therefore, rise up, O Lord God, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength. Let your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and let your holy ones rejoice in what is good.
42 O ry Iehovà Andrianañahare, ko ampiolire’o ty lahara’ i noriza’oy; tiahio o fiferenaiña i Davide mpitoro’oo.
O Lord God, may you not turn away from the face of your Christ. Remember the mercies of your servant, David.”
