< 1 Kings 8 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Solomoni pe àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli àti gbogbo àwọn olórí àwọn ẹ̀yà àti àwọn olórí ìdílé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jọ papọ̀, níwájú Solomoni ọba ní Jerusalẹmu, láti gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa wá láti ìlú Dafidi, tí ń ṣe Sioni.
At that time Solomon assembled before him in Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Zion, the City of David.
2 Gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì pe ara wọn jọ sọ́dọ̀ Solomoni ọba ní àkókò àjọ ọdún ní oṣù Etanimu tí í ṣe oṣù keje.
And all the men of Israel came together to King Solomon at the feast in the seventh month, the month of Ethanim.
3 Nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli dé, àwọn àlùfáà sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí,
When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the priests took up the ark,
4 wọ́n sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa àti àgọ́ àjọ ènìyàn àti gbogbo ohun èlò mímọ́ tí ó wà nínú àgọ́. Àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì gbé wọn gòkè wá,
and they brought up the ark of the LORD and the Tent of Meeting with all its sacred furnishings. So the priests and Levites carried them up.
5 àti Solomoni ọba, àti gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó péjọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí, wọ́n ń fi ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àgùntàn àti màlúù tí a kò le mọ iye, àti tí a kò le kà rú ẹbọ.
There, before the ark, King Solomon and the whole congregation of Israel who had assembled with him sacrificed so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered.
6 Nígbà náà ni àwọn àlùfáà gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí ti májẹ̀mú Olúwa wá sí ipò rẹ̀, sí ibi inú lọ́hùn ún ilé Olúwa, Ibi Mímọ́ Jùlọ, wọ́n gbé e sí abẹ́ ìyẹ́ àwọn kérúbù.
Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Most Holy Place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.
7 Àwọn kérúbù na ìyẹ́ wọn méjèèjì sí ibi àpótí ẹ̀rí, wọ́n sì bo àpótí ẹ̀rí náà, àti àwọn ọ̀pá rẹ̀ tí a fi ń gbé e.
For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark and overshadowed the ark and its poles.
8 Àwọn ọ̀pá yìí ga tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí a fi le rí orí wọn láti Ibi Mímọ́ níwájú ibi tí a yà sí mímọ́, ṣùgbọ́n a kò sì rí wọn lóde Ibi Mímọ́, wọ́n sì wà níbẹ̀ títí di òní yìí.
The poles extended far enough that their ends were visible from the Holy Place in front of the inner sanctuary, but not from outside the Holy Place; and they are there to this day.
9 Kò sí ohun kankan nínú àpótí ẹ̀rí bí kò ṣe wàláà òkúta méjì tí Mose ti fi sí ibẹ̀ ní Horebu, níbi tí Olúwa ti bá àwọn ọmọ Israẹli dá májẹ̀mú, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites after they had come out of the land of Egypt.
10 Nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà jáde láti Ibi Mímọ́, àwọsánmọ̀ sì kún ilé Olúwa.
And when the priests came out of the Holy Place, the cloud filled the house of the LORD
11 Àwọn àlùfáà kò sì le ṣiṣẹ́ wọn nítorí àwọsánmọ̀ náà, nítorí ògo Olúwa kún ilé náà.
so that the priests could not stand there to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD.
12 Nígbà náà ni Solomoni sì wí pé, “Olúwa ti wí pé, òun yóò máa gbé inú òkùnkùn biribiri.
Then Solomon declared: “The LORD has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud.
13 Nítòótọ́, èmi ti kọ́ ilé kan fún ọ, ibi tí ìwọ yóò máa gbé títí láéláé.”
I have indeed built You an exalted house, a place for You to dwell forever.”
14 Nígbà tí gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli sì dúró síbẹ̀, ọba sì yí ojú rẹ̀, ó sì bùkún fún wọn.
And as the whole assembly of Israel stood there, the king turned around and blessed them all
15 Nígbà náà ni ó wí pé, “Ìbùkún ni fún Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ẹni tí ó ti fi ọwọ́ ara rẹ̀ mú ìlérí tí ó fi ẹnu rẹ̀ sọ fún Dafidi baba mi ṣẹ. Nítorí tí ó wí pé,
and said: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His own hand what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, saying,
16 ‘Láti ọjọ́ tí èmi ti mú àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti, èmi kò tí ì yan ìlú kan nínú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ mi láti wà níbẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ti yan Dafidi láti ṣàkóso àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn mi.’
‘Since the day I brought My people Israel out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house so that My Name would be there. But I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’
17 “Dafidi baba mi sì ní i lọ́kàn láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa sì wí fún Dafidi baba mi pé, ‘Nítorí tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ láti kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ mi, ó dára láti ní èyí ní ọkàn rẹ.
But the LORD said to my father David, ‘Since it was in your heart to build a house for My Name, you have done well to have this in your heart.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n, ìwọ kọ́ ni yóò kọ́ ilé náà, ṣùgbọ́n ọmọ rẹ, tí ó tinú ara rẹ àti ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ jáde; òun ni yóò kọ́ ilé náà fún orúkọ mi.’
Nevertheless, you are not the one to build it; but your son, your own offspring, will build the house for My Name.’
20 “Olúwa sì ti pa ìlérí rẹ̀ tí ó ṣe mọ́, èmi sì ti rọ́pò Dafidi baba mi, mo sì jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli báyìí, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti ṣèlérí, èmi sì kọ́ ilé kan fún orúkọ Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
Now the LORD has fulfilled the word that He spoke. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
21 Èmi sì ti pèsè ibìkan níbẹ̀ fún àpótí ẹ̀rí, èyí tí í ṣe májẹ̀mú Olúwa tí ó ti bá àwọn baba wa dá, nígbà tí ó mú wọn jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá.”
And there I have provided a place for the ark, which contains the covenant of the LORD that He made with our fathers when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
22 Solomoni sì dúró níwájú pẹpẹ Olúwa, níwájú gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli, ó sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì sókè ọ̀run.
Then Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in front of the whole assembly of Israel, spread out his hands toward heaven,
23 Ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, kò sí Ọlọ́run tí ó dàbí rẹ lókè ọ̀run tàbí ní ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀ ìwọ tí ó pa májẹ̀mú àti àánú mọ́ pẹ̀lú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ tí ń fi gbogbo ọkàn wọn rìn níwájú rẹ.
and said: “O LORD, God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven above or on earth below, keeping Your covenant of loving devotion with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.
24 O sì ti pa ìlérí rẹ mọ́ fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ Dafidi baba mi; pẹ̀lú ẹnu rẹ ni ìwọ ṣe ìlérí, o sì mú u ṣẹ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ rẹ, bí ó ti rí lónìí.
You have kept Your promise to Your servant, my father David. What You spoke with Your mouth You have fulfilled with Your hand this day.
25 “Ǹjẹ́ báyìí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, bá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Dafidi baba mi pa ohun tí ìwọ ti ṣe ìlérí fún un mọ́ wí pé, ìwọ kì yóò kùnà láti ní ènìyàn kan láti jókòó níwájú mi lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli, kìkì bí àwọn ọmọ rẹ bá lè kíyèsi ohun tí wọ́n ń ṣe láti máa rìn níwájú mi bí ìwọ ti rìn.
Therefore now, O LORD, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, what You promised when You said: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before Me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants guard their way to walk before Me as you have done.’
26 Ǹjẹ́ báyìí, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ tí o ti ṣe ìlérí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Dafidi baba mi wá sí ìmúṣẹ.
And now, O God of Israel, please confirm what You promised to Your servant, my father David.
27 “Ṣùgbọ́n nítòótọ́, Ọlọ́run yóò máa gbé ayé bí? Ọ̀run àti ọ̀run àwọn ọ̀run kò le gbà ọ́. Kí a má sọ pé ilé yìí tí mo kọ́ fún ọ!
But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? Even heaven, the highest heaven, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.

Yet regard the prayer and plea of Your servant, O LORD my God, so that You may hear the cry and the prayer that Your servant is praying before You today.

May Your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, toward the place of which You said, ‘My Name shall be there,’ so that You may hear the prayer that Your servant prays toward this place.

Hear the plea of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place. May You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place. May You hear and forgive.
31 “Nígbà tí ẹnìkan bá ṣẹ̀ sí ẹnìkejì rẹ̀, tí a sì fi wá lé e láti mú un búra, bí ìbúra náà bá sì dé iwájú pẹpẹ rẹ ní ilé yìí,

then may You hear from heaven and act. May You judge Your servants, condemning the wicked man by bringing down on his own head what he has done, and justifying the righteous man by rewarding him according to his righteousness.

When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your name, praying and pleading with You in this temple,

then may You hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your servants, Your people Israel, so that You may teach them the good way in which they should walk. May You send rain on the land that You gave Your people as an inheritance.

then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Name.

For You, O Lord GOD, as Your inheritance, have set them apart from all the peoples of the earth, as You spoke through Your servant Moses when You brought our fathers out of Egypt.”

Now when Solomon had finished praying this entire prayer and petition to the LORD, he got up before the altar of the LORD, where he had been kneeling with his hands spread out toward heaven.
55 Ó sì dìde dúró ó sì fi ohùn rara súre fún gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli wí pé,
And he stood and blessed the whole assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying:

So let your heart be fully devoted to the LORD our God, as it is this day, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments.”
62 Nígbà náà ni ọba àti gbogbo Israẹli rú ẹbọ níwájú Olúwa.
Then the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifices before the LORD.
63 Solomoni rú ẹbọ àlàáfíà sí Olúwa: ẹgbẹ̀rún méjìlélógún màlúù, àti ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́fà àgùntàn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ya ilé Olúwa sí mímọ́.
And Solomon offered as peace offerings to the LORD 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the Israelites dedicated the house of the LORD.
64 Ní ọjọ́ kan náà ni ọba ya àgbàlá àárín tí ń bẹ níwájú ilé Olúwa sí mímọ́, níbẹ̀ ni ó sì rú ẹbọ sísun àti ọrẹ oúnjẹ, àti ẹbọ àlàáfíà, nítorí pẹpẹ idẹ tí ń bẹ níwájú Olúwa kéré jù láti gba ẹbọ sísun, àti ọrẹ oúnjẹ, àti ọrẹ ẹbọ àlàáfíà.
On that same day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard in front of the house of the LORD, and there he offered the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, since the bronze altar before the LORD was too small to contain all these offerings.

So at that time Solomon and all Israel with him—a great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast before the LORD our God for seven days and seven more days—fourteen days in all.
66 Ní ọjọ́ kẹjọ ó rán àwọn ènìyàn lọ. Wọ́n súre fún ọba, wọ́n sì lọ sí ilé wọn pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn fún gbogbo ohun rere tí Olúwa ti ṣe fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àti fún Israẹli ènìyàn rẹ̀.
On the fifteenth day Solomon sent the people away. So they blessed the king and went home, joyful and glad in heart for all the good things that the LORD had done for His servant David and for His people Israel.
