¹Siis kogus Saalomon Iisraeli vanemad ja kõik suguharude peamehed, Iisraeli laste perekondade eestseisjad, kuningas Saalomoni juurde Jeruusalemma Issanda seaduselaegast Taaveti linnast, see on Siionist, üles tooma.

¹Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the city of David, which is Zion.

²Ja kõik Iisraeli mehed kogunesid pühadeks kuningas Saalomoni juurde eetanimikuus, mis on seitsmes kuu.

²And all the men of Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, that is, the seventh month.

³Ja kui kõik Iisraeli vanemad olid tulnud, siis tõstsid preestrid laeka

³And all the elders of Israel came; and the priests took up the ark.

⁴ja tõid üles Issanda laeka, kogudusetelgi ja kõik pühad riistad, mis telgis olid; preestrid ja leviidid tõid need üles.

⁴And they brought up the ark of Jehovah, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the tent: the priests and the Levites brought them up.

⁵Kuningas Saalomon oli laeka ees, ja koos temaga oli kogu Iisraeli kogudus, kes oli kogunenud tema juurde; nad ohverdasid nii palju lambaid, kitsi ja veiseid, et neid ei saadud lugeda ega kokku arvata.

⁵And king Solomon, and all the assembly of Israel that were assembled to him, [who were] with him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

⁶Ja preestrid tõid Issanda seaduselaeka selle paika koja tagaruumi, kõige pühamasse paika keerubite tiibade alla,

⁶And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah to its place, into the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim;

⁷sest keerubid laotasid oma tiivad laeka paiga üle; keerubid katsid laegast ja selle kandekange pealtpoolt.

⁷for the cherubim stretched forth [their] wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its staves above.

⁸Ja kangid olid nii pikad, et kangide otsi võis näha pühamust, kõige pühama paiga eest, ent neid ei nähtud väljast; ja need on seal tänapäevani.

⁸And the staves were long, so that the ends of the staves were seen from the holy place before the oracle, but they were not seen without. And there they are to this day.

⁹Laekas ei olnud muud kui need kaks kivilauda, mis Mooses oli Hoorebil sinna pannud, kui Issand tegi Iisraeli lastega lepingu nende tulles Egiptusemaalt.

⁹There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone which Moses placed there at Horeb, when Jehovah made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁰Ja kui preestrid pühamust väljusid, siis sündis, et pilv täitis Issanda koja

¹⁰And it came to pass when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of Jehovah,

¹¹ja preestrid ei võinud jääda teenima pilve pärast: sest Issanda auhiilgus oli täitnud Issanda koja.

¹¹and the priests could not stand to do their service because of the cloud; for the glory of Jehovah had filled the house of Jehovah.

¹²Siis kõneles Saalomon: 'Issand on öelnud, et ta tahab elada pimeduses.

¹²Then said Solomon: Jehovah said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

¹³Mina olen sulle ehitanud valitsuskoja, su igavese eluaseme paiga.'

¹³I have indeed built a house of habitation for thee, a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.

¹⁴Ja kuningas pööras oma palge ja õnnistas kogu Iisraeli kogudust, ja kogu Iisraeli kogudus seisis.

¹⁴And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel; and the whole congregation of Israel stood.

¹⁵Ja ta ütles: 'Kiidetud olgu Issand, Iisraeli Jumal, kes oma käega on tõeks teinud, mida ta oma suuga on kõnelnud mu isale Taavetile, öeldes:

¹⁵And he said: Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,

¹⁶Sellest päevast alates, kui ma tõin oma Iisraeli rahva ära Egiptusest, ei ole ma üheltki Iisraeli suguharult valinud ühtegi linna, kuhu ehitada koda, kus oleks mu nimi; aga ma valisin Taaveti, et ta valitseks mu Iisraeli rahva üle.

¹⁶Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in, that my name might be there; but I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

¹⁷Mu isal Taavetil oli küll südame peal ehitada koda Issanda, Iisraeli Jumala nimele,

¹⁷And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house unto the name of Jehovah the God of Israel.

¹⁸aga Issand ütles mu isale Taavetile: Et sul südame peal on ehitada mu nimele koda, siis oled sa hästi teinud, kui see sul südame peal on.

¹⁸But Jehovah said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart;

¹⁹Ometi ei ehita sina seda koda, vaid su poeg, kes su niudeist välja tuleb, ehitab mu nimele koja.

¹⁹nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name.

²⁰Issand on pidanud oma sõna, mis ta kõneles, ja mina olen tõusnud oma isa Taaveti asemele ja istun Iisraeli aujärjel, nõnda nagu Issand on kõnelnud, ja ma olen ehitanud koja Issanda, Iisraeli Jumala nimele.

²⁰And Jehovah has performed his word which he spoke; and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah promised, and I have built the house unto the name of Jehovah the God of Israel.

²¹Ja ma olen valmistanud paiga laekale, mille sees on Issanda leping, mille ta tegi meie vanematega, kui ta tõi nad ära Egiptusemaalt.'

²¹And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of Jehovah, which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.

²²Siis astus Saalomon Issanda altari ette kogu Iisraeli koguduse juuresolekul ja sirutas oma käed taeva poole

²²And Solomon stood before the altar of Jehovah in the presence of the whole congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward the heavens.

²³ning ütles: 'Issand, Iisraeli Jumal! Sinu sarnast jumalat ei ole ülal taevas ega all maa peal: sina pead lepingut ja osadust oma sulastega, kes käivad su ees kõigest südamest,

²³And he said, Jehovah, God of Israel! there is no God like thee, in the heavens above, or on the earth beneath, who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee with all their heart;

²⁴sina oled pidanud oma sulasele, mu isale Taavetile, mis sa temale olid lubanud. Jah, mis sa oma suuga oled kõnelnud, selle oled sa oma käega tõeks teinud, nõnda nagu see täna on sündinud.

²⁴who hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou didst promise him; thou spokest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled [it] with thy hand, as at this day.

²⁵Ja nüüd, Issand, Iisraeli Jumal, pea oma sulasele, mu isale Taavetile, mis sa temale tõotasid, öeldes: Ei puudu sul minu palge ees mees, kes istub Iisraeli aujärjel, kui ainult su pojad peavad oma teed, käies mu ees, nõnda nagu sina oled käinud mu ees.

²⁵And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only thy sons take heed to their way, to walk before me as thou hast walked before me.

²⁶Ja nüüd, Iisraeli Jumal, saagu ometi tõeks su sõnad, mis sa oled kõnelnud oma sulasele, mu isale Taavetile!

²⁶And now, O God of Israel, let thy words, I pray thee, be verified, which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David my father.

²⁷Aga kas Jumal tõesti peaks elama maa peal? Vaata, taevas ja taevaste taevas ei mahuta sind, veel vähem siis see koda, mille ma olen ehitanud.

²⁷But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, the heavens, and the heaven of heavens, cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!

²⁸Aga pöördu oma sulase palve ja ta anumise poole, Issand, mu Jumal, et sa kuuleksid kaebehüüdu ja palvet, mida su sulane täna palvetab sinu ees,

²⁸Yet have respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, Jehovah, my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee this day;

²⁹et su silmad oleksid lahti ööd ja päevad selle koja kohal, selle paiga kohal, mille kohta sa oled öelnud: Seal peab olema minu nimi!, et sa kuuleksid palvet, mida su sulane palvetab selle paiga poole!

²⁹that thine eyes may be open upon this house night and day, upon the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place.

³⁰Kuule siis oma sulase ja oma Iisraeli rahva anumist, kuidas nad palvetavad selle paiga poole! Jah, kuule paigast, kus sa elad - taevast! Ja kui sa kuuled, siis anna andeks!

³⁰And hearken unto the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place, and hear thou in thy dwelling-place, in the heavens, and when thou hearest, forgive.

³¹Kui keegi oma ligimese vastu pattu teeb ja talle pannakse peale vanne teda vannutades, ja vandeasi tuleb sinu altari ette siia kotta,

³¹If a man have sinned against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to adjure him, and the oath come before thine altar in this house;

³²siis kuule sina taevast ja tee ning mõista õigust oma sulastele: mõista süüdlane süüdi, pane tema teod ta pea peale, õige aga mõista õigeks, anna temale ta õigust mööda!

³²then hear thou in the heavens, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his own head; and justifying the righteous, giving him according to his righteousness.

³³Ja kui su Iisraeli rahvas lüüakse maha vaenlase ees, sellepärast et nad sinu vastu on pattu teinud, ent nad pöörduvad tagasi su juurde ja kiidavad sinu nime, palvetavad su poole ja anuvad sind selles kojas,

³³When thy people Israel are put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house;

³⁴siis kuule sina taevast ja anna andeks oma Iisraeli rahva patt ja too nad tagasi maale, mille sa oled andnud nende vanematele!

³⁴then hear thou in the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land that thou gavest unto their fathers.

³⁵Kui taevas on suletud ja vihma ei ole, sellepärast et nad on sinu vastu pattu teinud, aga nad palvetavad selle paiga poole ja kiidavad sinu nime ja pöörduvad oma patust, sellepärast et sa neid oled alandanud,

³⁵When the heavens are shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, because thou hast afflicted them;

³⁶siis kuule sina taevast ja anna andeks oma sulaste ja oma Iisraeli rahva patt, sest sina õpetad neile head teed, mida nad peavad käima, ja anna vihma oma maale, mille sa oled andnud pärisosaks oma rahvale!

³⁶then hear thou in the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou teachest them the good way wherein they should walk; and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.

³⁷Kui maale tuleb nälg, kui tuleb katk, kui tulevad viljakõrvetus või -rooste, rohutirtsud ja mardikad, kui vaenlane teda rõhub ta maa väravais, kui tabab mingi nuhtlus või mingi haigus,

³⁷If there be famine in the land, if there be pestilence, if there be blight, mildew, locust, caterpillar; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their gates; whatever plague, whatever sickness there be:

³⁸kui siis iganes palvetatakse või anutakse, olgu ükskõik missuguse inimese või kogu su Iisraeli rahva poolt, kui nad igaüks tunnevad oma südame häda ja sirutavad oma käed selle koja poole,

³⁸what prayer, what supplication soever be made by any man, of all thy people Israel, when they shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands toward this house;

³⁹siis kuule sina taevast, oma asupaigast, ja anna andeks ning tee nõnda, et sa annad igaühele tema tegusid mööda, nagu sa tunned tema südant, sest sina üksi tunned kõigi inimlaste südameid,

³⁹then hear thou in the heavens, the settled place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do, and render unto every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou knowest (for thou, thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men),

⁴⁰et nad kardaksid sind kõigil neil päevil, mil nad elavad maal, mille sa oled andnud meie vanemaile!

⁴⁰that they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

⁴¹Aga ka võõramaalast, kes ei ole sinu Iisraeli rahva hulgast, tuleb aga kaugelt maalt sinu nime pärast

⁴¹And as to the stranger also, who is not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy name's sake

⁴²- sest nad kuulevad sinu suurest nimest, sinu vägevast käest ja sinu väljasirutatud käsivarrest - ja ta tuleb ning palvetab selle koja poole,

⁴²(for they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy mighty hand, and of thy stretched-out arm); when he shall come and pray toward this house,

⁴³kuule sina taevast, oma asupaigast, ja tee kõike, mille pärast võõras sinu poole hüüab, et kõik maa rahvad õpiksid tundma sinu nime ja kardaksid sind, nõnda nagu su Iisraeli rahvas, ja et nad teaksid, et sinu nimi on pandud kojale, mille ma olen ehitanud!

⁴³hear thou in the heavens thy dwelling-place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; in order that all peoples of the earth may know thy name, [and] that they may fear thee as do thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.

⁴⁴Kui su rahvas läheb sõtta oma vaenlase vastu, teekonnale, kuhu sa nad läkitad, ja nad palvetavad Issanda poole selle linna suunas, mille sina oled valinud, ja koja suunas, mille mina olen ehitanud su nimele,

⁴⁴If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray to Jehovah toward the city that thou hast chosen, and the house that I have built unto thy name;

⁴⁵siis kuule taevast nende palvet ja anumist ja tee neile õigust!

⁴⁵then hear thou in the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their right.

⁴⁶Kui nad sinu vastu pattu teevad - sest pole inimest, kes pattu ei tee - ja sina vihastad nende peale ning annad nad vaenlase kätte, nõnda et nad viiakse vangi vaenlase maale, kaugemale või lähemale,

⁴⁶If they have sinned against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and give them up to the enemy, and they have carried them away captives unto the enemy's land, far or near;

⁴⁷aga kui nad siis seda südamesse võtavad maal, kuhu nad on vangi viidud, ja pöörduvad ning anuvad sind oma vangistusemaal, öeldes: Me oleme pattu teinud, oleme eksinud ja saanud süüdlasteks,

⁴⁷and if they shall take it to heart in the land whither they were carried captive, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captive, saying, We have sinned, and have done iniquity, we have dealt perversely;

⁴⁸ja pöörduvad sinu poole kõigest oma südamest ja kõigest oma hingest nende vaenlaste maal, kes on nad vangi viinud, ja paluvad sind oma maa suunas, mille sa oled andnud nende vanematele, linna suunas, mille sina oled valinud, ja koja suunas, mille mina olen ehitanud sinu nimele,

⁴⁸and if they return unto thee with all their heart and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who led them away captive, and pray unto thee toward their land which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city that thou hast chosen, and the house that I have built unto thy name;

⁴⁹siis kuule taevast, oma asupaigast, nende palvet ja anumist, tee neile õigust

⁴⁹then hear thou in the heavens, the settled place of thy dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their right;

⁵⁰ja anna oma rahvale andeks see, milles nad sinu vastu on pattu teinud, ja kõik nende vastuhakkamised, millega nad sulle on vastu hakanud, ja lase neil leida halastust oma vangiviijate ees, et need halastaksid nende peale!

⁵⁰and forgive thy people their sin against thee, and all their transgressions whereby they have transgressed against thee, and give them to find compassion with those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them

⁵¹Sest nad on sinu rahvas ja sinu pärisosa, kelle sa tõid ära Egiptusest, rauasulatusahjust.

⁵¹(for they are thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron) --

⁵²Olgu su silmad lahti su sulase anumise ja su Iisraeli rahva anumise poole, et sa neid kuuleksid kõiges, mille pärast nad sind hüüavad!

⁵²thine eyes being open unto the supplication of thy servant, and unto the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken unto them in all that they call for unto thee.

⁵³Sest sina oled nad eraldanud enesele pärisosaks kõigi maa rahvaste hulgast, nõnda nagu sa rääkisid oma sulase Moosese läbi, kui sa tõid meie vanemad ära Egiptusest, oh Issand Jumal!'

⁵³For thou hast separated them from among all peoples of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spokest through Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord Jehovah.

⁵⁴Ja kui Saalomon oli lõpetanud palvetamise Issanda poole, kõik need palved ja anumised, siis ta tõusis üles Issanda altari eest, kus ta oli põlvitanud, käed sirutatud taeva poole,

⁵⁴And it was so, that when Solomon had ended praying all this prayer and supplication to Jehovah, he arose from before the altar of Jehovah, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread forth to the heavens,

⁵⁵ja astus ette ning õnnistas kogu Iisraeli kogudust, öeldes valju häälega:

⁵⁵and he stood and blessed the whole congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,

⁵⁶'Kiidetud olgu Issand, kes on andnud rahu oma Iisraeli rahvale, nõnda nagu ta on öelnud! Ainsatki sõna ei ole langenud tühja kõigist ta headest sõnadest, mis ta oma sulase Moosese läbi on rääkinud.

⁵⁶Blessed be Jehovah, who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there has not failed one word of all his good promises which he spoke through Moses his servant!

⁵⁷Olgu Issand, meie Jumal, meiega, nõnda nagu ta on olnud meie vanematega; tema ärgu jätku meid maha ja ärgu loobugu meist,

⁵⁷Jehovah our God be with us, as he was with our fathers; let him not forsake us nor cast us off:

⁵⁸vaid ta pööraku meie südamed enese poole, et käiksime kõigil ta teedel ja peaksime ta käske, määrusi ja seadlusi, nagu ta meie vanemaid on käskinud!

⁵⁸that he may incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, which he commanded our fathers.

⁵⁹Ja olgu need minu sõnad, millega ma olen anunud Issanda ees, Issanda, meie Jumala juures päevad ja ööd, et ta teeks õigust oma sulasele ja oma Iisraeli rahvale, nagu iga päev on tarvis,

⁵⁹And let these my words, with which I have made supplication before Jehovah, be nigh to Jehovah our God day and night, that he maintain the right of his servant, and the right of his people Israel, as the matter of each day shall require;

⁶⁰nõnda et kõik maa rahvad saaksid teada, et Issand on Jumal, aga mitte keegi teine!

⁶⁰that all peoples of the earth may know that Jehovah is God, that there is none else;

⁶¹Ja teie süda olgu siiras Issanda, meie Jumala vastu, et te käiksite tema määruste järgi ja peaksite tema käske nagu täna!'

⁶¹and that your heart may be perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in his statutes and to keep his commandments, as at this day.

⁶²Siis ohverdas kuningas ja kogu Iisrael koos temaga Issanda ees tapaohvreid.

⁶²And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifices before Jehovah.

⁶³Saalomon ohverdas tänuohvriks, mida ta Issandale ohverdas, kakskümmend kaks tuhat veist ning sada kakskümmend tuhat lammast ja kitse. Nõnda pühitsesid kuningas ja kõik Iisraeli lapsed Issanda koja.

⁶³And Solomon sacrificed a sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he sacrificed to Jehovah, twenty-two thousand oxen and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of Jehovah.

⁶⁴Selsamal päeval pühitses kuningas Issanda koja ees oleva õue keskpaiga, sest ta ohverdas seal põletusohvri ja roaohvri ning tänuohvri rasvu, kuna vaskaltar Issanda ees oli liiga väike, et mahutada põletus- ja roaohvrit ning tänuohvri rasvu.

⁶⁴The same day the king hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of Jehovah; for there he offered the burnt-offerings, and the oblations, and the fat of the peace-offerings, because the brazen altar that was before Jehovah was too small to receive the burnt-offerings, and the oblations, and the fat of the peace-offerings.

⁶⁵Nõnda pidas Saalomon sel ajal Issanda, meie Jumala ees püha, ja kogu Iisrael koos temaga - üks suur kogudus Hamati teelahkmest kuni Egiptuseojani - seitse päeva ja seitse päeva, see on neliteist päeva.

⁶⁵And at that time Solomon held the feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath unto the torrent of Egypt, before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days, fourteen days.

⁶⁶Kaheksandal päeval saatis ta rahva ära; nad õnnistasid kuningat ja läksid oma telkide juurde rõõmsatena ja heas meeleolus selle hea pärast, mida Issand oli teinud oma sulasele Taavetile ja oma Iisraeli rahvale.

⁶⁶On the eighth day he sent the people away; and they blessed the king, and went to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that Jehovah had done to David his servant, and to Israel his people.
