1 Na, i te mutunga o te inoi a Horomona, ka heke iho te ahi i te rangi, a pau ake te tahunga tinana, me nga patunga tapu; a ki tonu te whare i te kororia o Ihowa.
2 A kihai i ahei i nga tohunga te tomo ki te whare o Ihowa: ki tonu hoki te whare o Ihowa i te kororia o Ihowa.
3 A ka matakitaki nga tama katoa a Iharaira i te hekenga iho o te ahi, i te kororia hoki o Ihowa i runga i te whare; na ka piko o ratou kanohi ki te whenua ki nga papa, a koropiko ana ratou, whakamoemiti ana ki a Ihowa, me te ki ano, No te mea he p ai ia; he mau tonu tana mahi tohu.
4 Na kei te patu te kingi ratou ko te iwi katoa i nga patunga tapu ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
5 Na patua ana e Kingi Horomona he patunga tapu, e rua tekau ma rua mano kau, kotahi rau e rua tekau mano hipi. Na kua taia te kawa o te whare o te Atua e te kingi, e te iwi katoa.
6 Tu ana tera nga tohunga i te aronga o a ratou mahi, ko nga Riwaiti hoki me nga mea rangi waiata a Ihowa, i hanga nei e Kingi Rawiri hei whakawhetai ki a Ihowa, he mau tonu nei tana mahi tohu, i nga wa i meinga ai ratou e Rawiri hei whakamoemiti m ana: na whakatangi ana nga tohunga i nga tetere ki to ratou aroaro; a tu ana a Iharaira katoa.
7 I whakatapua ano e Horomona a waenganui o te marae i mua i te whare o Ihowa; i tukua hoki e ia ki reira he tahunga tinana, me te ngako o nga whakahere mo te pai: he iti hoki no te aata parahi i hanga e Horomona hei meatanga mo nga tahunga tinana, mo nga whakahere totokore, mo nga ngako.
8 Heoi mahia ana te hakari e Horomona i taua wa, e whitu nga ra, e ratou ko Iharaira katoa, he nui atu te huihui, no te haerenga atu ki Hamata tae noa ki te awa o Ihipa.
9 Na i te waru o nga ra he huihui nui na ratou: e whitu hoki nga ra i taia ai e ratou te kawa o te aata, a e whitu nga ra o te hakari.
10 I te rua tekau ma toru o nga ra o te whitu o nga marama ka unga e ia te iwi ki o ratou teneti, koa tonu ratou, pai tonu nga ngakau i te pai i meinga e Ihowa ki a Rawiri, ki a Horomona, ki tana iwi ano, ki a Iharaira.
11 Na kua oti i a Horomona te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi; na, ko nga mea katoa i puta ki te ngakau o Horomona kia mahia ki te whare o Ihowa, ki tona whare ake hoki, oti pai ana i a ia.
12 Na ka puta a Ihowa ki a Horomona i te po, a ka mea ki a ia, Kua rongo ahau i tau inoi, kua whiriwhiria ano e ahau tenei wahi moku, hei whare patunga tapu.
13 Ki te tutakina e ahau te rangi, a kahore he ua, ki te whakahaua ranei e ahau nga mawhitiwhiti kia kai i te whenua, ki te unga ranei e ahau tetahi mate uruta ki taku iwi;
14 Heoi ki te whakaiti taku iwi i a ratou, kua karangatia nei hoki toku ingoa ki a ratou, ki te inoi, a ka rapu i toku mata, ka tahuri mai i o ratou ara he; ka whakarongo mai ahau i te rangi, ka muru i to ratou hara, ka whakaora i te mate o to rato u whenua.
15 Ko tenei ka titiro oku kanohi, ka tahuri ano oku taringa ki nga mea e inoia ana ki tenei wahi.
16 Kua whiriwhiria nei hoki e ahau, kua whakatapua inaianei tenei whare, hei waihotanga iho mo toku ingoa a ake ake; ko reira ano oku kanohi, me toku ngakau, i nga ra katoa.
17 Na ko koe, ki te rite tau haere i toku aroaro ki te haere a tou papa, a Rawiri, ki te mahia nga mea katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki a koe, ki te puritia e koe aku tikanga me aku whakaritenga;
18 Katahi ahau ka whakapumau i te torona o tou kingitanga, ka pera me taku kawenata ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri, i ahau i mea ra, E kore e whakakorea he tangata mau hei kawana mo Iharaira.
19 Tena ki te tahuri ke atu koutou, a ka whakarere i aku tikanga, i aku whakahau ka hoatu nei e ahau ki to koutou aroaro, a ka haere, ka mahi ki nga atua ke, ka koropiko ki a ratou;
20 Katahi o ratou pakiaka ka unuhia ake e ahau i toku oneone i hoatu nei e ahau ki a ratou; katahi tenei whare i whakatapua nei e ahau mo toku ingoa, ka akiritia atu e ahau i toku aroaro, a ka meinga hei whakatauki, hei taunutanga i roto i nga iwi katoa.
21 Na, ko tenei whare e tiketike nei, ka ai hei miharotanga ma nga tangata katoa e haere ana i tona taha; a ka mea ratou, Na te aha tenei mea i meatia ai e Ihowa ki tenei whenua, ki tenei whare?
22 Na ka whakautua e ratou, Mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i te Atua o o ratou matua i whakaputa mai nei i a ratou i te whenua o Ihipa, mo ratou i tango ki nga atua ke, a koropiko ana ki a ratou, mahi ana ki a ratou: na reira i kawea ai e ia tenei ke katoa ki a ratou.
1 And at Solomon`s finishing to pray, then the fire hath come down from the heavens, and consumeth the burnt-offering and the sacrifices, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house,
2 and the priests have not been able to go in unto the house of Jehovah, because the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah.
3 And all the sons of Israel are looking on the descending of the fire, and the honour of Jehovah on the house, and they bow -- faces to the earth -- on the pavement, and do obeisance, and give thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age [is] His kindness.
4 And the king and all the people are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah,
5 and king Solomon sacrificeth the sacrifice of the herd, twenty and two thousand, and of the flock, a hundred and twenty thousand, and the king and all the people dedicate the house of God.
6 And the priests over their charges are standing, and the Levites with instruments of the song of Jehovah -- that David the king made, to give thanks to Jehovah, for to the age [is] His kindness, in David`s praising by their hand -- and the priests are blowing trumpets over-against them, and all Israel are standing.
7 And Solomon sanctifieth the middle of the court that [is] before the house of Jehovah, for he hath made there the burnt-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings: for the altar of brass that Solomon made hath not been able to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat.
8 And solomon maketh the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him -- a very great assembly -- from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt.
9 And they make on the eighth day a restraint, because the dedication of the altar they have made seven days, and the feast seven days.
10 And on the twenty and third day of the seventh month he hath sent the people to their tents, rejoicing, and glad in heart, for the goodness that Jehovah hath done to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel His people.
11 And Solomon finisheth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king; and all that hath come on the heart of Solomon to do in the house of Jehovah, and in his own house, he hath caused to prosper.
12 And Jehovah appeareth unto Solomon by night, and saith to him, `I have heard thy prayer, and have fixed on this place to Me for a house of sacrifice.
13 If I restrain the heavens and there is no rain, and if I lay charge on the locust to consume the land, and if I send pestilence among My people --
14 and My people on whom My name is called be humbled, and pray, and seek My face, and turn back from their evil ways, then I -- I hear from the heavens, and forgive their sin, and heal their land.
15 `Now, Mine eyes are open, and Mine ears attentive, to the prayer of this place;
16 and now, I have chosen and sanctified this house for My name being there unto the age; yea, Mine eyes and My heart have been there all the days.
17 `And thou, if thou dost walk before Me as David thy father walked, even to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and My statutes and My judgments dost keep --
18 then I have established the throne of thy kingdom, as I covenanted with David thy father, saying, There is not cut off a man to thee -- a ruler in Israel;
19 and if ye turn back -- ye -- and have forsaken My statutes, and My commands, that I have placed before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them -- then I have plucked them from off My ground that I have given to them,
20 and this house that I have sanctified for My name, I cast from before My face, and make it for a proverb, and for a byword, among all the peoples.
21 `And this house that hath been high, to every one passing by it, is an astonishment, and he hath said, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus to this land, and to this house?
22 and they have said, Because that they have forsaken Jehovah, God of their fathers, who brought them out from the land of Egypt, and lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them, and serve them, therefore He hath brought upon them all this evil.`
