2 Dnevnika 6

1 Tada reèe Solomun: Gospod je rekao da æe nastavati u mraku.

Then, said Solomon, —Yahweh, said, that he would make his habitation in thick gloom;

2 A ja sazidah dom tebi za stan i mjesto da u njemu nastavaš dovijeka.

But, I, have built a house as a home for thee, —A settled place for thee to abide in, for ages.

3 I okrenuvši se licem svojim car blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, a sav zbor Izrailjev stajaše.

And the king turned about his face, and blessed all the convocation of Israel, —while, all the convocation of Israel, was standing;

4 I reèe: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je govorio svojim ustima Davidu ocu mojemu i ispunio rukom svojom, govoreæi:

and he said, Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who spake with his mouth, unto David my father, -and, with his hand, hath fulfilled, saying:

5 Od onoga dana kad izvedoh narod svoj iz zemlje Misirske, ne izabrah grada meðu svijem plemenima Izrailjevijem da se sazida dom gdje bi bilo ime moje, niti izabrah èovjeka koji bi bio voð narodu mojemu Izrailju,

From the day I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt, I made choice of no city, out of all the tribes of Israel, for building a house, where my Name might be, —neither made I choice of any man, to be chief ruler over my people Israel:

6 Nego izabrah Jerusalim da u njemu bude ime moje, i izabrah Davida da bude nad narodom mojim Izrailjem.

nevertheless I have made choice of Jerusalem, that my Name might be there, —and I have made choice of David, that he might be over my people Israel.

7 I naumi David otac moj da sazida dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.

And so it came to pass, that it was near the heart of David my father, —to build a house, to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel.

8 Ali Gospod reèe Davidu ocu mojemu: što si naumio sazidati dom imenu mojemu, dobro si uèinio što si to naumio.

Then said Yahweh unto David my father, Because it was near thy heart to build a house for my Name, thou didst well that it was near thy heart:

9 Ali neæeš ti sazidati toga doma, nego sin tvoj koji æe izaæi iz bedara tvojih, on æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu.

Only, thou thyself, must not build the house, —but, thine own son, that proceedeth out of thy loins—he, shall build the house for my Name.

10 I tako ispuni Gospod rijeè svoju koju je rekao, jer ustah na mjesto oca svojega Davida i sjedoh na prijesto Izrailjev, kao što je rekao Gospod, i sazidah ovaj dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.

So then Yahweh hath established his word, which he spake, —and I have been raised up instead of David my father, and have taken my seat upon the throne of Israel, as spake Yahweh, and have built the house to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel;

11 I namjestih ovdje kovèeg, u kom je zavjet Gospodnji što je uèinio sa sinovima Izrailjevijem.

and have put there, the ark, —wherein is the covenant of Yahweh, —which he solemnised with the sons of Israel.

12 Potom stade Solomun pred oltar Gospodnji pred svijem zborom Izrailjevijem, i podiže ruke svoje.

Then stood he before the altar of Yahweh, in the presence of all the convocation of Israel, —and spread forth his hands;

13 A bješe naèinio Solomun podnožje od mjedi i metnuo ga nasred trijema, pet lakata dugo i pet lakata široko, a tri lakta visoko; pa stade na nj, i kleèe na koljena pred svijem zborom Izrailjevijem, i podiže ruke svoje k nebu.

for Solomon had made a platform of bronze, and had set it in the midst of the enclosure, five cubits, the length thereof, and, five cubits, the breadth thereof, and, three cubits, the height thereof, -and he stood thereon, and knelt upon his knees, in the presence of all the convocation of Israel, and spread forth his hands, heavenward;

14 I reèe: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! nema Boga takoga kakav si ti ni na nebu ni na zemlji, koji èuvaš zavjet i milost slugama svojim, koje hode pred tobom svijem srcem svojim;

and said, O Yahweh! God of Israel, Not like unto thee, is there a god, in the heavens, or throughout the earth, —who keepest Covenant and Lovingkindness for thy servants who are walking before thee with all their heart:

15 Koji si ispunio sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao; što si ustima svojim rekao to si rukom svojom ispunio, kao što se vidi danas.

who hast kept, for thy servant David my father, that which thou didst promise him, —in that thou didst promise with thy mouth, and, with thy hand, hast fulfilled, as [it is] this day.

16 Sada dakle, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, drži Davidu ocu mojemu što si mu rekao govoreæi: neæe ti nestati èovjeka ispred mene koji bi sjedio na prijestolu Izrailjevu, samo ako ušèuvaju sinovi tvoji put svoj hodeæi po zakonu mojemu, kao što si ti hodio preda mnom.

Now, therefore, O Yahweh—God of Israel, keep thou, for thy servant David my father, that which thou didst promise him, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man, from before me, to sit upon the throne of Israel, if only, thy sons take heed to their way, to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.

17 Sada dakle, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, neka se potvrdi rijeè tvoja koju si rekao sluzi svojemu Davidu.

Now, therefore, O Yahweh, God of Israel, -verified be thy promise, which thou didst make unto thy servant David.

18 Ali hoæe li doista Bog stanovati s èovjekom na zemlji? Eto, nebo, i nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu te obuhvatiti, akamoli ovaj dom što ga sazidah.

But, in very deed, will God dwell with man on the earth? Lo! the heavens, even the leaven of heavens, cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built!

19 Ali pogledaj na molitvu sluge svojega i na molbu njegovu, Gospode Bože moj, èuj viku i molitvu kojom ti se danas moli sluga tvoj.

Wilt thou then turn unto the prayer of thy servant and unto his supplication, O Yahweh my God, —to hearken unto the cry and unto the prayer, wherewith thy servant is praying before thee:

20 Da budu oèi tvoje otvorene nad domom ovijem danju i noæu, nad ovijem mjestom, gdje si rekao da æeš namjestiti ime svoje, da èuješ molitvu kojom æe se moliti sluga tvoj na ovom mjestu.

that thine eyes may be open toward this house, day and night, toward the place of which thou hast said thou wouldst set thy Name there, —to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant may pray towards this place:

21 Èuj molbe sluge svojega i naroda svojega Izrailja, kojima æe se moliti na ovom mjestu, èuj s mjesta gdje stanuješ, s neba, èuj i smiluj se.

wilt thou therefore hearken unto the supplications of thy servant, and thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place, —yea wilt, thou thyself, hear, out of thine own dwelling-place, out of the heavens, and, when thou hearest, then wilt thou forgive?

22 Kad ko zgriješi bližnjemu svojemu, te mu se da zakletva, da se zakune, i zakletva doðe pred tvoj oltar u ovom domu,

If a man shall sin against his neighbour, and there shall be laid upon him an oath, to put him on oath, —and an oath shall come before thine altar in this house,

23 Ti èuj s neba, i uèini, i sudi slugama svojim plaæajuæi krivcu i djela njegova obraæajuæi na njegovu glavu, a pravoga pravdajuæi i plaæajuæi mu po pravdi njegovoj.

then wilt, thou thyself, hear out of the heavens, and act, and judge thy servants, bringing back unto the lawless, to set his way upon his own head, —and justifying the righteous, by giving to him, according to his righteousness?

24 I kad se razbije pred neprijateljem narod tvoj Izrailj zato što ti zgriješe, pa se obrate i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu i pomole ti se i zamole te u ovom domu,

Or, if thy people Israel be smitten before an enemy, because they have been sinning against thee, —and they turn, and confess thy Name, and pray and make supplication before thee, in this house,

25 Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh narodu svojemu Izrailju, i dovedi ih opet u zemlju, koju si dao njima i ocima njihovijem.

then wilt, thou thyself, hear out of the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, —and bring them back unto the soil, which thou didst give to them and to their fathers?

26 Kad se zatvori nebo, te ne bude dažda zato što zgriješe tebi, pa ti se zamole na ovom mjestu i dadu slavu imenu tvojemu i od grijeha se svojega obrate, kad ih namuèiš,

When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain, because they have been sinning against thee, —and they shall pray towards this place, and shall confess thy Name, from their sin, shall return, because thou hast been afflicting them,

27 Ti èuj s neba, i oprosti grijeh slugama svojim i narodu svojemu Izrailju pokazav im put dobri kojim æe hoditi, i pusti dažd na zemlju svoju koju si dao narodu svojemu u našljedstvo.

then wilt, thou thyself, hear [out of] the heavens and forgive the sin of thy servants, and thy people Israel, that thou mayest direct them into the good way, wherein they should walk, —and give rain, upon thy land, which thou hast given unto thy people, for an inheritance?

28 Kad bude glad u zemlji, kad bude pomor, suša ili medljika, skakavci ili gusjenice kad budu, ili ga stegne neprijatelj njegov u zemlji njegovoj vlastitoj, ili kako god zlo i kaka god bolest,

When there shall be, a famine, in the land, when there shall be, a pestilence, —when there shall be, blasting or mildew, locust or caterpillar, —when their enemy shall besiege them in the land at their own gates-whatsoever plague or whatsoever sickness; -

29 Svaku molbu i svaku molitvu, koja bude od koga god èovjeka ili od svega naroda tvojega Izrailja, ko pozna muku svoju i bol svoj i podigne ruke svoje u ovom domu,

whatsoever prayer, whatsoever supplication, which any son of earth may have, or any of thy people Israel, —when any man shall come to know his plague, or his pain, and so he shall spread abroad his hands towards this house—

30 Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i oprosti i podaj svakome po putovima njegovijem, što znaš u srcu njegovu, jer ti sam znaš srca sinova èovjeèijih;

then wilt, thou thyself, hear out of the heavens, the settled place of thine abode, and forgive, and grant to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou wilt know, —for, thou thyself alone, knowest the heart of the sons of men:

31 Da te se boje hodeæi putovima tvojim dokle su god živi na zemlji, koju si dao ocima našim.

to the end they may revere thee, to walk in thy ways, all the days which they shall be living upon the face of the soil, —which thou gavest unto their fathers?

32 I inostranac koji nije od naroda tvojega Izrailja, nego doðe iz daleke zemlje imena radi tvojega velikoga i ruke tvoje krjepke i mišice tvoje podignute, kad doðe i pomoli se u ovom domu,

Moreover also, unto the stranger who is not, of thy people Israel, but he shall come in out of a far country—for the sake of thy great Name, and of thy strong hand, and of thine outstretched arm, —and so they shall come in and pray towards this house,

33 Ti èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, i uèini sve za što povièe k tebi onaj stranac, da bi poznali svi narodi na zemlji ime tvoje i bojali se tebe kao narod tvoj Izrailj, i da bi znali da je ime tvoje prizvano nad ovaj dom, koji sazidah.

then wilt, thou thyself, hear out of the heavens, out of the settled place of thine abode, and do according to all for which the stranger shall cry unto thee, —to the end that all the peoples of the earth may know thy Name, so as to revere thee like thy people Israel, and know that, thy Name, hath been given unto this house, which I have built?

34 Kad narod tvoj izide na vojsku na neprijatelje svoje putem kojim ga pošlješ, i pomole ti se okrenuvši se ka gradu ovomu, koji si izabrao, i k ovomu domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,

When thy people shall go forth to war against their enemies, whithersoever thou mayest send them, —and shall pray unto thee in the direction of this city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy Name,

35 Èuj s neba molbu njihovu i molitvu njihovu, i dobavi im pravicu.

then wilt thou hear, out of the heavens, their prayer and their supplication, —and maintain their right.

36 Kad ti zgriješe, jer nema èovjeka koji ne griješi, i razgnjevivši se na njih daš ih neprijateljima, te ih zarobe i odvedu u zemlju daljnu ili koja je blizu,

When they sin against thee—for there is no son of earth who sinneth not—and thou shalt be angry with them, and deliver them up before an enemy, —who shall carry them away as their captives into a land—far away or near;

37 Ako se dozovu u zemlji u koju budu odvedeni u ropstvo, i obrate se i stanu ti se moliti u zemlji ropstva svojega, i reku: sagriješismo i zlo uèinismo i skrivismo;

and they come back to their right mind, in the land whither they have been taken captive, —and so turn and make supplication unto thee in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done perversely, and been lawless; —

38 I tako se obrate k tebi svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom u zemlji ropstva svojega, u koju budu odvedeni u ropstvo, i pomole ti se okrenuvši se k zemlji svojoj, koju si dao ocima njihovijem, i ka gradu, koji si izabrao, i k domu, koji sam sazidao imenu tvojemu,

and so turn unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captive, —and shall pray in the direction of their own land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and the city which thou hast chosen, and unto the house which I have built for thy Name,

39 Tada èuj s neba, iz stana svojega, molbu njihovu i molitvu njihovu, i dobavi im pravicu, i oprosti narodu svojemu što ti budu zgriješili.

then wilt thou hear out of the heavens—out of the settled place of thine abode—their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, —and forgive thy people, that wherein they sinned against thee?

40 Tako, Bože moj, neka budu oèi tvoje otvorene i uši tvoje prignute na molbu u ovom mjestu.

Now, O my God, let—I beseech thee—thine eyes be open, and thine ears attent, —unto the prayer of this place.

41 I tako, stani, Gospode Bože, na poèivalištu svojem, ti i kovèeg sile tvoje; sveštenici tvoji, Gospode Bože, neka se obuku u spasenje, i sveci tvoji neka se raduju dobru.

Now, therefore, arise! O Yahweh God, unto thy rest, thou, and the ark of thy strength: Thy priests, O Yahweh God, let them be clothed with salvation, and, thy men of lovingkindness, let them rejoice in prosperity.

42 Gospode Bože, nemoj odvratiti lica svojega od pomazanika svojega; opominji se milosti obeæane Davidu sluzi tvojemu.

O Yahweh God! do not turn away thy face from thine Anointed One, —oh remember lovingkindness unto David thy servant.
