2 Imilando 7

1 Kwathi uSolomoni eseqedile ukukhuleka, umlilo wehla uvela emazulwini, wadla umnikelo wokutshiswa lemihlatshelo, lenkazimulo yeNkosi yagcwalisa indlu.

And just as finished Solomon to pray and the fire it came down from the heavens and it consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices and [the] glory of Yahweh it filled the house.

2 Njalo abapristi babengelakho ukungena endlini yeNkosi, ngoba inkazimulo yeNkosi yayigcwalise indlu yeNkosi.

And not they were able the priests to go into [the] house of Yahweh for it filled [the] glory of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.

3 Lapho bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli bebona ukwehla komlilo lenkazimulo yeNkosi phezu kwendlu, bakhothama ngobuso babo emhlabathini endaweni egandelweyo, bakhonza bedumisa iNkosi, ukuthi ilungile, ukuthi umusa wayo umi phakade.

And all - [the] people of Israel [were] seeing when came down the fire and [the] glory of Yahweh [was] over the house and they bowed down face [the] ground towards on the pavement and they bowed down and to give thanks to Yahweh for [he is] good for [is] for ever covenant loyalty his.

4 Inkosi labo bonke abantu banikela-ke imihlatshelo phambi kweNkosi.

And the king and all the people [were] sacrificing sacrifice[s] before Yahweh.

5 Inkosi uSolomoni yasinikela imihlatshelo yezinkabi ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili, lezimvu ezizinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili. Ngokunjalo inkosi labo bonke abantu bayehlukanisa indlu kaNkulunkulu.

And he sacrificed the king Solomon [the] sacrifice of cattle twenty and two thousand and sheep one hundred and twenty thousand and they dedicated [the] house of God the king and all the people.

6 Abapristi basebesima ezikhundleni zabo; lamaLevi elezinto zokuhlabelela zikaJehova inkosi uDavida ayezenzele ukudumisa uJehova, ngoba umusa wakhe umi phakade, lapho uDavida edumisa ngenkonzo yabo; labapristi bakhalisa impondo phambi kwabo, loIsrayeli wonke wema.

And the priests on duties their [were] standing and the Levites with [the] instruments of song of Yahweh which he had made David the king to give thanks to Yahweh for [is] for ever covenant loyalty his when praised David by hand their and the priests ([were] blowing a trumpet *Q(k)*) before them and all Israel [were] standing.

7 USolomoni wasengcwelisa iphakathi leguma elaliphambi kwendlu yeNkosi, ngoba wenza lapho iminikelo yokutshiswa lamahwahwa eminikelo yokuthula, ngoba ilathi lethusi uSolomoni ayelenzile lalingenele umnikelo wokutshiswa, lomnikelo wokudla, lamahwahwa.

And he consecrated Solomon [the] middle of the courtyard which [was] before [the] house of Yahweh for he offered there the burnt offerings and [the] fat of the peace offerings for [the] altar of bronze which he had made Solomon not it was able to contain the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat.

8 Langalesosikhathi uSolomoni wenza umkhosi okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, loIsrayeli wonke kanye laye, ibandla elikhulu kakhulu, kusukela ekungeneni kweHamathi kusiya esifuleni seGibhithe.

And he observed Solomon the festival at the time that seven days and all Israel [was] with him an assembly great very from Lebo Hamath to [the] wadi of Egypt.

9 Langosuku lwesificaminwembili benza umhlangano onzulu, ngoba benza ukwehlukaniswa kwelathi okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, lomkhosi okwensuku eziyisikhombisa.

And they observed on the day eighth an assembly for - [the] dedication of the altar they had observed seven days and the festival seven days.

10 Ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lantathu lwenyanga yesikhombisa waseyekela abantu bahamba baya emathenteni abo, bethokoza bejabula enhliziyweni ngokuhle iNkosi eyayikwenzele uDavida loSolomoni loIsrayeli abantu bayo.

And on day twenty and three of the month seventh he sent away the people to tents their joyful and good of heart on the good which he had done Yahweh for David and for Solomon and for Israel people his.

11 Ngokunjalo uSolomoni waqeda indlu kaJehova lendlu yenkosi; lakho konke okwakuvela enhliziyweni kaSolomoni ukukwenza endlini yeNkosi lendlini yakhe wakuphumelelisa.

And he finished Solomon [the] house of Yahweh and [the] house of the king and every [thing which] was coming on [the] heart of Solomon to do in [the] house of Yahweh and in own house his he made successful.

12 INkosi yasibonakala kuSolomoni ebusuku yathi kuye: Ngizwile umkhuleko wakho, sengizikhethele lindawo ukuba yindlu yomhlatshelo.

And he appeared Yahweh to Solomon in the night and he said to him I have heard prayer your and I have chosen the place this for myself for a house of sacrifice.

13 Uba ngivala amazulu ukuze kungabi lazulu, kumbe uba ngilaya intethe ukuqeda ilizwe, kumbe uba ngithumela umatshayabhuqe wesifo phakathi kwabantu bami,

Here! I will shut up the heavens and not it will be rain and here! I will command to [the] grasshopper to devour the land and if I will send pestilence among people my.

14 uba abantu bami ibizo lami elibizwa phezu kwabo bezithoba, bakhuleke badinge ubuso bami, baphenduke ezindleleni zabo ezimbi, mina-ke ngizakuzwa ngisemazulwini, ngithethelele isono sabo, ngelaphe ilizwe labo.

So they may humble themselves people my which it has been called name my on them so they may pray and they may seek face my so they may turn from ways their wicked and I I will hear from the heavens so I may forgive sin their so I may heal land their.

15 Khathesi amehlo ami azavuleka, lendlebe zami zilalele umkhuleko walindawo.

Now eyes my they will be open and ears my attentive to [the] prayer of the place this.

16 Ngoba sengiyikhethile ngayingcwelisa lindlu ukuze ibizo lami libe khona kuze kube nininini; lamehlo ami lenhliziyo yami kuzakuba lapho zonke izinsuku.

And now I have chosen and I have consecrated the house this to be name my there until perpetuity and they will be eyes my and heart my there all the days.

17 Wena-ke, uba uhamba phambi kwami njengokuhamba kukaDavida uyihlo, wenze njengakho konke engikulaye khona, ugcine izimiso zami lezahlulelo zami,

And you if you will walk before me just as he walked David father your and to do according to all that I have commanded you and statutes my and judgments my you will observe.

18 ngizaqinisa-ke isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakho, njengokwenza kwami isivumelwano loDavida uyihlo ngisithi: Kakuyikusweleka muntu kuwe obusa koIsrayeli.

And I will establish [the] throne of kingdom your just as I made to David father your saying not it will be cut off to you a man [who] rules over Israel.

19 Kodwa uba libuyela emuva lina, litshiya izimiso zami lemilayo yami engikubeke phambi kwenu, lihambe likhonze abanye onkulunkulu libakhothamele,

And if you will turn away! you and you will forsake statutes my and commandments my which I have set before you and you will go and you will serve gods other and you will bow down to them.

20 ngizabasiphuna-ke elizweni engibanike lona, lalindlu engiyingcwelisele ibizo lami ngizayilahla isuke phambi kwami, ngiyenze ibe yisiga lento yokuhozwa phakathi kwezizwe zonke.

And I will pluck up them from on land my which I have given to them and the house this which I have consecrated for name my I will throw away from on face my and I will make it into a byword and into a taunt among all the peoples.

21 Lalindlu ephakemeyo izakuba yisimangaliso kulowo lalowo odlula kuyo, aze athi: INkosi ikwenzeleni okunje kulelilizwe lakulindlu?

And the house this which it was most high to every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he will say how? did he do Yahweh thus to the land this and to the house this.

22 Bazakuthi-ke: Kungoba beyidelile iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise eyabakhupha elizweni leGibhithe, babambelela kwabanye onkulunkulu, babakhonza babasebenzela; ngenxa yalokho ibehlisele bonke lobububi.

And people will say on that they forsook Yahweh - [the] God of ancestors their who he brought out them from [the] land of Egypt and they took hold on gods other and they bowed down to them and they served them there-fore he has brought on them all the calamity this.
