2 Nyakati 7
1 Sasa Selemani alipokuwa amemaliza kuomba, moto ukaja kutoka mbinguni na kuiteketeza sadaka ya kuteketezwa na dhabihu, na utukufu wa Yahwe ukaijaza nyumba.
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 Makuhani hawakuweza kuingia kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe, kwa sababu utukufu wake uliijaza nyumba yake.
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 Watu wote wa Israeli wakaangalia juu moto uliposhuka chini na utukufu wa Yahwe ulikuwa juu ya nyumba. Wakalala kwa nyuso zao juu ya sakafu ya mawe, wakaabudu, na kutoa shukrani kwa Yahwe. Wakasema, “Kwa maana yeye ni mwema, kwa maana agano lake la kifame ladumu milele.”
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 Kwa hiyo mfalme na watu wote wakamtolea Yahwe sadaka Yahwe.
And the king and all the people [were] sacrificing sacrifice[s] before Yahweh.
5 Mfalme Selemani akatoa sadaka ya ng'ombe ishirini na mbili elfu na kondoo 120, 000 na mbuzi. Kwa hiyo mfalme na watu wote wakaiweka wakifu nyumba ya Mungu.
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 Makuhani wakasimama, kila mmoja akasimama mahali pake pa kuhudumu; Walawi pia pamoja na vyombo vya muziki vya Yahwe, ambavyo mfalme Daudi alivitengeza kwa ajili ya kumpa shukrani Yahwe katika nyimbo, “Kwa maana uaminifu wa agano lake wadumu milele.” Makuhani wote wakapiga matarumbeta mbele yao, na Israeli wote wakasimama.
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 Selemani akaitakasa sehemu ya katikati ya kiwanja cha mfalme mbele ya nyumba ya Yahwe. Humo akatoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na mafuta ya sadaka za amani, kwa sababu madhabahu ya shaba ambayo alikuwa ametengeza haikuweza kuzibeba sadaka, sadaka za nafaka, na za mafuta.
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 Kwa hiyo Selemani akaitisha sikukuu wakati huo kwa siku saba, na Israeli wote pamaoja naye, kusanyiko kubwa, kutoka Lebo Hamathi mpaka kijito cha Misiri.
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 Siku ya nane wakaitisha kusanyiko la makini, kwa maana kwa siku saba walishika kuwekwa wakfu kwa ile madhabahu.
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 Katika siku ya ishini na tatu ya mwezi wa saba, Selemani akawatanya watu kwenda kwenye nyumba zao kwa furaha na mioyo ya shangwe kwa sababu ya wema aliokuwa ameuonesha Yahwe kwa Daudi, Selemani, Israeli, na watu wake.
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 Hivyo Selemani akaimaliza nyumba ya Yahwe na nyumba yake mwenyewe. Kila kitu kilichokuja katika moyo wa Selemani kwa ajili ya kukitengeneza katika nyumba ya mfalme na katika nyumba yake mwenyewe, alikitimiza kwa mafanikio.
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 Yahwe akamtokea Selemani usiku na kusema kwake, “Nimesikia maombi yako, na nimeichagua sehemu hii kwa ajili yangu mwenyewe kama nyumba ya dhabihu.
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 Kama nitazifunga mbingu ili kwamba kusiwepo mvua, au kama nitaamuru nzige waimeze nchi, au kama nitatuma magonjwa kati kati ya watu wangu,
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 kisha watu wangu, ambao wameitwa kwa jina langu, watajinyenyekeza, kuomba, kuutafuta uso wangu, na kuziacha njia zao mbaya, nitasikia kutoka mbinguni, kuwasamehe dhambi zao, na kuiponya nchi yao.
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 Sasa macho yangu yatakuwa wazi na masikio yangu yatasikiliza maombi yanayofanywa katika sehemu hii.
Now eyes my they will be open and ears my attentive to [the] prayer of the place this.
16 Kwa maana sasa nimeichagua na kauitakasa nyumba hii ili kwamba jina langu lipate kuwa humo milele. Masikio yangu na moyo wangu vitakuwako kila siku.
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 Kwako wewe, kama utatembe mbele zangu kama baba yako Daudi alivyotembea, ukitii yote nilyokuamuru na kuzishika sheria zangu na maagizo yangu,
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 basi nitakithibitisha kiti cha enzi cha ufalme wako, kama nilivyosema katika agano na Daudi baba yako, niliposema, 'Mzaliwa wako hatashindwa kamwe kuwa mtawala katika Israeli.'
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 Lakin ukigeuka, na kuzisahau sheria zangu na amri amabzo nimeweka mbele yenu, na kama utaenda kuabudu miungu wengine na kuwasujudia,
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 basi nitawang'oa kutoka kwenye nchi yangu amabayo nimewapa. Nyumba hii ambayo nimeitakasa kwa ajili ya jina langu, nitaitupilia mbali kutoka mbele zangu, na nitaifanya kuwa methali na utani miongini mwa watu wote.
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 Ingawa hekalu hili hili zuri sana kwa sasa, kila mtu apitaye karibu yake atashangazwa na ataguna. Watauliza, 'Kwa nini Yahwe ameifanyia hivi nchi hii na nyumba hii',
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 wengine watajibu, 'Kwa sababu walimsahau Yahwe, Mungu wao, ambaye alikuwa amewatoa babu zao nje ya nchi ya Misiri, na wakashikamana na miungu wengine na kuwainamia chini na kuwaabudu. Hii ndiyo maana Yahwe ameleta majanga haya yote juu yao”
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.
