< 2 Dnevnika 6 >

1 Tada reèe Solomun: Gospod je rekao da æe nastavati u mraku.
Then Solomon said, “The LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
2 A ja sazidah dom tebi za stan i mjesto da u njemu nastavaš dovijeka.
But I have built you a house and home, a place for you to dwell in forever.”
3 I okrenuvši se licem svojim car blagoslovi sav zbor Izrailjev, a sav zbor Izrailjev stajaše.
The king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel stood.
4 I reèe: blagosloven da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji je govorio svojim ustima Davidu ocu mojemu i ispunio rukom svojom, govoreæi:
He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and has with his hands fulfilled it, 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,
‘Since the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in, that my name might be there, and I chose no man to be prince over my people Israel;
6 Nego izabrah Jerusalim da u njemu bude ime moje, i izabrah Davida da bude nad narodom mojim Izrailjem.
but now I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.’
7 I naumi David otac moj da sazida dom imenu Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.
Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
8 Ali Gospod reèe Davidu ocu mojemu: što si naumio sazidati dom imenu mojemu, dobro si uèinio što si to naumio.
But the LORD said to David my father, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart;
9 Ali neæeš ti sazidati toga doma, nego sin tvoj koji æe izaæi iz bedara tvojih, on æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu.
nevertheless you shall not build the house, but your son who will come out of your body, 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.
“The LORD has performed his word that he spoke; for I have risen up in the place of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
11 I namjestih ovdje kovèeg, u kom je zavjet Gospodnji što je uèinio sa sinovima Izrailjevijem.
There I have set the ark, in which is the LORD’s covenant, which he made with the children of Israel.”
12 Potom stade Solomun pred oltar Gospodnji pred svijem zborom Izrailjevijem, i podiže ruke svoje.
He stood before the LORD’s altar in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out 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 bronze platform, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high, and had set it in the middle of the court; and he stood on it, and knelt down on his knees before all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands towards heaven).
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;
Then he said, “LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven or on earth—you who keep covenant and loving kindness with your servants who walk before you 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 have kept with your servant David my father that which you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is today.
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, LORD, the God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that which you have promised him, saying, ‘There shall not fail you a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your children take heed to their way, to walk in my law as you have walked before me.’
17 Sada dakle, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, neka se potvrdi rijeè tvoja koju si rekao sluzi svojemu Davidu.
Now therefore, LORD, the God of Israel, let your word be verified, which you spoke to your 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 will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain you; 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.
Yet have respect for the prayer of your servant and to his supplication, LORD my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which your servant prays before you;
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 your eyes may be open towards this house day and night, even towards the place where you have said that you would put your name, to listen to the prayer which your servant will 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.
Listen to the petitions of your servant and of your people Israel, when they pray towards this place. Yes, hear from your dwelling place, even from heaven; and when you hear, 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 sins against his neighbour, and an oath is laid on him to cause him to swear, and he comes and swears before your 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 hear from heaven, act, and judge your servants, bringing retribution to the wicked, to bring his way on his own head; and justifying the righteous, to give 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,
“If your people Israel are struck down before the enemy because they have sinned against you, and they turn again and confess your name, and pray and make supplication before you 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 hear from heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave 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 sky is shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against you, if they pray towards this place and confess your name, and turn from their sin when you afflict 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 hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk, and send rain on your land, which you have given to your 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,
“If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight or mildew, locust or caterpillar; if their enemies besiege them in the land of their cities; whatever plague or whatever sickness there is—
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,
whatever prayer and supplication is made by any man, or by all your people Israel, who will each know his own plague and his own sorrow, and shall spread out 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 hear from heaven your dwelling place and forgive, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know (for you, even you only, know the hearts of the children of men),
31 Da te se boje hodeæi putovima tvojim dokle su god živi na zemlji, koju si dao ocima našim.
that they may fear you, to walk in your ways as long as they live in the land which you gave to our 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, concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, when he comes from a far country for your great name’s sake and your mighty hand and your outstretched arm, when they come 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 hear from heaven, even from your dwelling place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to you for; that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you, as do your people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by your name.
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,
“If your people go out to battle against their enemies, by whatever way you send them, and they pray to you towards this city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your name;
35 Èuj s neba molbu njihovu i molitvu njihovu, i dobavi im pravicu.
then hear from heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
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,
“If they sin against you (for there is no man who doesn’t sin), and you are angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to a land far off 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;
yet if they come to their senses in the land where they are carried captive, and turn again, and make supplication to you in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done perversely, and have dealt wickedly;’
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,
if they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have been taken captive, and pray towards their land which you gave to their fathers, and the city which you have chosen, and towards the house which I have built for your 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 hear from heaven, even from your dwelling place, their prayer and their petitions, and maintain their cause, and forgive your people who have sinned against you.
40 Tako, Bože moj, neka budu oèi tvoje otvorene i uši tvoje prignute na molbu u ovom mjestu.
“Now, my God, let, I beg you, your eyes be open, and let your ears be attentive to the prayer that is made in 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, LORD God, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength. Let your priests, LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let your saints rejoice in goodness.
42 Gospode Bože, nemoj odvratiti lica svojega od pomazanika svojega; opominji se milosti obeæane Davidu sluzi tvojemu.
“LORD God, don’t turn away the face of your anointed. Remember your loving kindnesses to David your servant.”
