2 Tantara 7
1 Ie nihenefe’ i Selomò i filolofa’ey, le nidoindoiñe boak’ andikerañe eñe ty afo nampibotseke i enga oroañey naho o soroñeo vaho nandifotse i anjomba’ Iehovày ty enge’ Iehovà.
And when Solomon had completed pouring out his prayers, fire descended from heaven, and it devoured the holocausts and the victims. And the majesty of the Lord filled the house.
2 Tsy nahafizilik’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao o mpisoroñeo amy te nañatseke i anjombay ty enge’ Iehovà.
Neither were the priests able to enter into the temple of the Lord, because the majesty of the Lord had filled the temple of the Lord.
3 Niisa’ o ana’ Israele iabio ty nivotraha’ i afoy naho ty enge’ Iehovà amy anjombay; le nibokok’ an-damoke eo, nidròdreke mb’an-tane, niambane naho nañandriañe Iehovà: Amy te Ie ro soa, nainai’e ty fiferenaiña’e.
Moreover, all the sons of Israel saw the fire descending, and the glory of the Lord upon the house. And falling prone upon the ground, on the layer of pavement stones, they adored and praised the Lord: “For he is good. For his mercy is everlasting.”
4 Le songa nanao soroñe añatrefa’ Iehovà i mpanjakay naho ondatio.
Then the king and all the people were immolating victims before the Lord.
5 Nandenta añombe ro’ale-tsi-ro’ arivo hisoroñañe t’i Selomò mpanjaka naho boak’ an-dia-raik’ ao ty rai-hetse-tsi-ro’ ale. Aa le noriza’ i mpanjakay naho ondaty iabio ty anjomban’ Añahare.
And so, king Solomon slaughtered victims: twenty-two thousand oxen, and one hundred twenty thousand rams. And the king and the entire people dedicated the house of God.
6 Nijohañe eo o mpisoroñeo, songa fitoloña’e; o nte-Levio rekets’ o fititihan-tsabo am’ Iehovà niranjie’ i Davide mpanjakao, hañandriañe Iehovà, amy te nainai’e ty fiferenaiña’e, am-pandrengea’ i Davide am-pità’ iareoo; le nampipopò trompetra tandrife iareo o mpisoroñeo; vaho nijohañe iaby t’Israele.
Then the priests and the Levites were standing in their offices, with the instruments of music for the Lord, which king David made in order to praise the Lord: “For his mercy is eternal.” And they were playing the hymns of David with their hands. And the priests were sounding out with trumpets before them, and all of Israel was standing.
7 Mbore nimasiñe’ i Selomò ty añivon-kiririsa aolo’ i anjomba’ Iehovày; le eo ty nañengà’e i soroñe rey naho o saboran’ engam-panintsiñañeo; amy te tsy naharambe i soroñe rey naho o engan-kaneñeo naho i saboray i kitrely torisike niranjie’ i Selomòy.
Also, Solomon sanctified the middle of the atrium in front of the temple of the Lord. For he had offered the holocausts and the fat of peace offerings in that place because the bronze altar, which he had made, had not been able to support the holocausts and the sacrifices and the fat.
8 Aa le nambena’ i Selomò fito andro i sabadidakey naho niharo ama’e iaby t’Israele, toe valobohòke jabajaba, sikal’ am-pimoahañ’ amy Kamate añe pak’ an-toraha’ i Mitsraime añe.
Therefore, Solomon kept the solemnity, at that time, for seven days, and all of Israel with him, a very great assembly, from the entrance of Hamath, even to the torrent of Egypt.
9 Le hene nivoribey amy andro fahavaloy, amy te nambena’ iereo fito andro ty fañorizañe i kitreliy vaho fito andro ka i sabadidakey.
And on the eighth day, he held a solemn gathering, because he had dedicated the altar over seven days, and he had celebrated the solemnity over seven days.
10 Aa ie amy andro faha roapolo-telo’ambi’ i volam-pahafitoy, le nampolie’e mb’an-kivoho’e mb’eo ondatio, sambe fale naho nirebek’ an-troke ty amy hasoa naboa’ Iehovà amy Davide naho amy Selomò vaho am’ Israele ondati’eoy.
And so, on the twenty-third day of the seventh month, he dismissed the people to their dwellings, joyful and glad over the good that the Lord had done for David, and for Solomon, and for his people Israel.
11 Aa le nifonire’ i Selomò i anjomba’ Iehovày naho i anjomba’ i mpanjakaiy; ze hene nimoak’ añ’arofo’ i Selomò le niranjie’e añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao naho amy anjomba’ey ho fonitse.
And Solomon completed the house of the Lord, and the house of the king, and all that he had resolved in his heart to do for the house of the Lord, and for his own house. And he prospered.
12 Niboak’ amy Selomò haleñe t’Iehovà, nanao ama’e ty hoe: Tsinanoko i halali’oy vaho jinoboko ho ahiko ho anjombam-pisoroñañe ty toetse toy.
Then the Lord appeared to him by night, and said: “I have heard your prayer, and I have chosen this place for myself as a house of sacrifice.
13 Aa naho arindriko i likerañey tsy hahavia’e orañe, ke lilieko o valalao hampibotseke i taney, he ampihitrifako angorosy am’ondatikoo;
If I close up heaven, so that no rain will fall, or if I order and instruct the locust to devour the land, or if I send a pestilence among my people,
14 le ie hirè-batañe ondaty tokaveñe ami’ ty añarakoo, hihalaly naho hipay ty tareheko vaho hifotetse amo fañaveloa’ iareo ratio; le hitsanoñe boak’ andindiñe ao Raho, le hapoko o tahi’ iareoo vaho ho janganeko o tane’ iareoo.
and if my people, over whom my name has been invoked, being converted, will have petitioned me and sought my face, and will have done penance for their wicked ways, then I will heed them from heaven, and I will forgive their sins, and I will heal their land.
15 Hisokake henaneo o masokoo, le ho tsanoñe’ o sofikoo ze halaly anoeñe ami’ty toetse toy.
Also, my eyes will be open, and my ears will be attentive, to the prayer of him who shall pray in this place.
16 Fa jinoboko naho nimasiñeko ty anjomba toy henane zao, soa te ho ao kitro-katroke ty añarako vaho ho ama’e nainai’e donia o masokoo naho ty troko.
For I have chosen and sanctified this place, so that my name may be there continually, and so that my eyes and my heart may remain there, for all days.
17 Le ie hañavelo añatrefako, manahake ty fañaveloa’ i Davide rae’o, hanao o fonga nandiliako azoo, hañambeñe o fañèkoo naho o fepèkoo;
And as for you, if you will walk before me, just as your father David walked, and if you will act in accord with all that I have instructed you, and if you will observe my justices and judgments,
18 le horizako ty fiambesam-pifeleha’o, ty amy fañinako amy Davide rae’o, nanao ty hoe: Tsy ho po-ondaty hifehe Israele irehe.
I will raise up the throne of your kingdom, just as I promised to your father David, saying: ‘There shall not be taken away a man from your stock who will be ruler in Israel.’
19 Fe naho hivìke añe irehe hamorintseñe o fañèkoo naho o fepèko najadoko añatrefa’ areoo vaho hiavotse hitoroñe ndrahare ila’e hitalahoa’ areo;
But if you will have turned away, and will have forsaken my justices and my precepts, which I have set before you, and going astray, you serve strange gods, and you adore them,
20 le hombotako reke-bahatse an-taneko natoloko iareo; le ty anjomba nimasiñeko ho ami’ty añarako toy ro hahifiko tsy ho am-pahatreavako añe, fa hanoeko razan-drehake naho fandrabioña’ ze kilakila’ ondaty.
I will uproot you from my land, which I gave to you, and from this house, which I sanctified to my name, and I will cast it away from before my face, and I will deliver it to be a parable and an example for all the peoples.
21 Le ty anjomba mandigiligy toy, ro hilatsà ze fonga mpiary ama’e, hanao ty hoe; Aa vaho akore te nanoe’ Iehovà zao o tane toañeo naho i anjomba’ey?
And this house will be like a proverb to all who pass by. And being astonished, they shall say: ‘Why has the Lord acted this way toward this land and toward this house?’
22 Le hoe ty havali’ iareo: Ie namorintseñe Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo nañavotse iareo an-tane Mitsraime añe, mbore nandrambe ndrahare ila’e naho nitalahoa’ iareo vaho nitoroña’ iareo; toly ndra naobo’e am’iereo o fonga hankàñe zao.
And they shall respond: ‘Because they abandoned the Lord, the God of their fathers, who led them away from the land of Egypt, and they took hold of foreign gods, and they adored and worshipped them. Therefore, all these evils have overwhelmed them.’”
