¹[Ny nitokanana ny tempoly] Ary tamin'izany Solomona mpanjaka dia namory ny loholon'ny Isiraely sy ny lohan'ny firenena rehetra, dia ny lohan'ny fianakaviana tamin'ny Zanak'Isiraely, ho ao aminy tany Jerosalema mba hampakatra ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah avy ao Ziona. Tanànan'i Davida.

¹Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto king Solomon, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David — it [is] Zion;

²Dia nivory ho any amin'i Solomona mpanjaka ny lehilahy rehetra amin'ny Isiraely tamin'ny andro firavoravoana tamin'ny volana Etanima (volana fahafito izany).

²and all the men of Israel are assembled unto king Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival — [is] the seventh month.

³Ary tonga ny loholon'ny Isiraely rehetra, ary ny mpisorona no nitondra ny fiara;

³And all the elders of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the ark,

⁴ary dia nampakariny ny fiaran'i Jehovah sy ny trano-lay fihaonana mbamin'ny fanaka masina rehetra izay tao amin'ny lay. Nampakarin'ny mpisorona sy ny Levita ireo zavatra ireo.

⁴and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that [are] in the tent, yea, the priests and the Levites bring them up.

⁵Ary Solomona mpanjaka sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, izay nivory teo aminy teo anoloan'ny fiara, dia samy namono zavatra hatao fanatitra, dia ondry aman'osy sy omby izay tsy tambo isaina sady tsy hita isa noho ny hamaroany.

⁵And king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are met unto him [are] with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered for multitude.

⁶Ary ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah dia nampidirin'ny mpisorona ho ao amin'ny fitoerany tao anatin'ny efi-trano anatiny, dia ny fitoerana masina indrindra, teo ambanin'ny elatry ny kerobima,

⁶And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;

⁷fa nivelatra teo ambonin'ny fitoeran'ny fiara ny elatry ny kerobima ka nanaloka ny fiara sy ny baony.

⁷for the cherubs are spreading forth two wings unto the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves from above;

⁸Ary lava ny bao, ka hita ny lohany, raha amin'ny fitoerana masina eo anoloan'ny efitra anatiny, nefa tsy hita raha eny ivelany; ary mbola ao mandraka androany izy.

⁸and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen from the holy [place] on the front of the oracle, and are not seen without, and they are there unto this day.

⁹Ary tsy nisy na inona na inona tao anatin'ny fiara afa-tsy ny vato fisaka roa, izay nataon'i Mosesy tao anatiny tany Horeba, fony Jehovah nanao fanekena tamin'ny Zanak'Isiraely tamin'ny nivoahany avy tany amin'ny tany Egypta.

⁹There is nothing in the ark, only the two tables of stone which Moses put there in Horeb, when Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel in their going out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁰Ary nony nivoaka avy tao amin'ny fitoerana masina ny mpisorona, dia nameno ny tranon'i Jehovah ny rahona;

¹⁰And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the holy [place], that the cloud hath filled the house of Jehovah,

¹¹ka dia tsy nahajanona hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ny mpisorona noho ny rahona, satria ny voninahitr'i Jehovah nameno ny tranon'i Jehovah.

¹¹and the priests have not been able to stand to minister because of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah.

¹²Dia hoy Solomona: Jehovah efa nilaza fa hitoetra ao amin'ny aizim-pito Izy.

¹²Then said Solomon, `Jehovah hath said to dwell in thick darkness;

¹³Efa nanao trano hitoeranao tokoa aho, dia fitoerana hitoeranao mandrakizay.

¹³I have surely built a house of habitation for Thee; a fixed place for Thine abiding to the ages.`

¹⁴Ary ny mpanjaka nitodika ka nitso-drano ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra (nitsangana avokoa ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra),

¹⁴And the king turneth round his face, and blesseth the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.

¹⁵ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, fa ny vavany efa niteny tamin'i Davida raiko, ary ny tànany no nahatanteraka izany taminy, dia ilay hoe:

¹⁵And he saith, `Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who spake by His mouth with David my father, and by His hand hath fulfilled [it], saying,

¹⁶Hatramin'ny andro nitondrako ny Isiraely oloko nivoaka avy tany Egypta dia tsy mbola nisy tanàna nofidiko tamin'ny firenen'Isiraely rehetra hanaovana trano hitoeran'ny anarako; fa nifidy an'i Davida Aho hanapaka ny Isiraely oloko.

¹⁶From the day that I brought out My people, even Israel, from Egypt, I have not fixed on a city out of all the tribes of Israel, to build a house for My name being there; and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.

¹⁷Ary efa mby tao am-pon'i Davida raiko ny hanao trano ho an'ny anaran'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.

¹⁷`And it is with the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,

¹⁸Nefa hoy Jehovah tamin'i Davida raiko: Satria tao am-ponao ny fikasana hanao trano ho an'ny anarako, dia tsara izany fikasanao izany.

¹⁸and Jehovah saith unto David my father, Because that it hath been with thy heart to build a house for My name, thou hast done well that it hath been with thy heart;

¹⁹Kanefa kosa tsy ianao no hanao ny trano, fa ny zanakao izay haterakao, izy no hanao ny trano ho an'ny anarako.

¹⁹only, thou dost not build the house, but thy son who is coming out from thy loins, he doth build the house for My name.

²⁰Ary Jehovah efa nahatanteraka ny teniny izay nolazainy, koa nitsangana handimby an'i Davida raiko aho ary mipetraka eo amin'ny seza fiandrianan'ny Isiraely tahaka ny efa nolazain'i Jehovah, sady efa nanao ny trano ho an'ny anaran'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, aho.

²⁰`And Jehovah doth establish His word which He spake, and I am risen up instead of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah spake, and build the house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,

²¹Ary nasiako fitoerana teo ho an'ny fiara izay itoeran'ny faneken'i Jehovah, ilay nataony tamin'ny razantsika fony Izy nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany Egypta.

²¹and set there a place for the ark, where [is] the covenant of Jehovah which He made with our fathers in His bringing them out from the land of Egypt.`

²²Ary Solomona nitsangana teo anoloan ny alitaran'i Jehovah teo anatrehan'ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ka namelatra ny tànany nanandrify ny lanitra

²²And Solomon standeth before the altar of Jehovah, over-against all the assembly of Israel, and spreadeth his hands towards the heavens,

²³ary nanao hoe. Ry Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô. tsy misy Andriamanitra tahaka Anao na amin'ny lanitra ambony na amin'ny tany ambany, Izay mitandrina ny fanekenao sy ny famindram-ponao ho an'ny mpanomponao izay mandeha eo anatrehanao amin'ny fony rehetra,

²³and saith, `Jehovah, God of Israel, there is not a God like Thee, in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath, keeping the covenant and the kindness for Thy servants, those walking before Thee with all their heart,

²⁴sady efa nahatanteraka tamin'i Davida raiko mpanomponao ilay nolazainao taminy, fa nolazain'ny vavanao izany dia notanterahin'ny tananao tahaka ny amin'izao anio izao.

²⁴who hast kept for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him; yea, Thou speakest with Thy mouth, and with Thy hand hast fulfilled [it], as [at] this day.

²⁵Koa tanteraho amin'i Davida raiko mpanomponao, Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô. ilay nolazainao taminy hoe: Tsy ho diso zanakalahy eo anatrehako ianao hipetraka amin'ny seza fiandrianan'ny Isiraely, raha ny zanakao mitandrina ny alehany handehanany eo anatrehako tahaka ny nandehananao teo anatrehako.

²⁵`And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him, saying, There is not cut off to thee a man from before Me, sitting on the throne of Israel — only, if thy sons watch their way, to walk before Me as thou hast walked before Me.

²⁶Koa ankehitriny ry Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, mifona aminao aho, aoka ho tò anie ny teninao, izay nolazainao tamin'i Davida raiko mpanomponao.

²⁶`And now, O God of Israel, let it be established, I pray Thee, Thy word which Thou hast spoken to Thy servant, David my father.

²⁷Andriamanitra va dia honina etỳ an-tany tokoa? He! ny lanitra, ary ny lanitry ny lanitra aza tsy omby Anao, koa mainka fa ity trano nataoko ity!

²⁷But, is it true? — God dwelleth on the earth! lo, the heavens, and the heavens of the heavens do not contain Thee, how much less this house which I have builded!

²⁸Koa atreho ny fivavaka sy ny fifonan'ny mpanomponao, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, mba hohenoinao ny fitarainana sy ny fivavaka izay ataon'ny mpanomponao eto anatrehanao anio,

²⁸`Then thou hast turned unto the prayer of Thy servant, and unto his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to hearken unto the cry and unto the prayer which Thy servant is praying before Thee to-day,

²⁹mba hihiratan'ny masonao andro aman'alina amin'ity trano ity, dia amin'ny fitoerana nolazainao hoe: Ho ao ny anarako hihainoanao ny vavaka izay ataon'ny mpanomponao manatrika ity fitoerana ity.

²⁹for Thine eyes being open towards this house night and day, towards the place of which Thou hast said, My Name is there; to hearken unto the prayer which Thy servant prayeth towards this place.

³⁰Ary henoy ny fifonan'ny mpanomponao sy ny Isiraely olonao, raha mivavaka manatrika ity fitoerana ity izy; dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao; eny, mihainoa ka mamelà heloka.

³⁰`Then Thou hast hearkened unto the supplication of Thy servant, and of Thy people Israel, which they pray towards this place; yea, Thou dost hearken in the place of Thy dwelling, in the heavens — and Thou hast hearkened, and hast forgiven,

³¹Raha misy olona manota amin'ny namany, ary ampianianiny, ka tonga hianiana eo anoloan'ny alitaranao amin'ity trano ity izy,

³¹that which a man sinneth against his neighbour, and he hath lifted up upon him an oath to cause him to swear, and the oath hath come in before Thine altar in this house,

³²dia mihainoa any an-danitra Hianao, ka manaova, ary mitsarà ny mpanomponao, hanameloka ny ratsy fanahy ka hampitsingerina ny nataony ho amin'ny lohany, ary hanamarina ny marina kosa ka hanome azy araka ny fahamarinany.

³²then Thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast done, and hast judged Thy servants, to declare wicked the wicked, to put his way on his head, and to declare righteous the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

³³Raha resy eo anoloan'ny fahavalo ny Isiraely olonao noho ny nanotany taminao, ary miverina aminao sy manaiky ny anaranao indray ka mivavaka sy mifona aminao eto amin'ity trano ity izy,

³³`In Thy people Israel being smitten before an enemy, because they sin against Thee, and they have turned back unto Thee, and have confessed Thy name, and prayed, and made supplication unto Thee in this house,

³⁴dia mihainoa any an-danitra Hianao, ka mamelà ny fahotan'ny Isiraely olonao, ary ampodio amin'ny tany nomenao ny razany izy.

³⁴then thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast forgiven the sin of Thy people Israel, and brought them back unto the ground that Thou gavest to their fathers.

³⁵Raha mihantona ny andro ka tsy misy ranonorana noho ny nanotan'ny olona taminao, ka mivavaka manatrika ity fitoerana ity izy ka manaiky ny anaranao sady miala amin'ny fahotany, satria ampahorinao,

³⁵`In the heavens being restrained, and there is no rain, because they sin against Thee, and they have prayed towards this place, and confessed Thy name, and from their sin turn back, for Thou dost afflict them,

³⁶dia mihainoa any an-danitra Hianao, ka mamelà ny fahotan'ny mpanomponao, dia ny Isiraely olonao satria atoronao azy ny lalana tsara izay tokony halehany, ary mandatsaha ranonorana amin'ny taninao, izay nomenao ho lovan'ny olonao.

³⁶then Thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast forgiven the sin of Thy servants, and of Thy people Israel, for Thou directest them the good way in which they go, and hast given rain on Thy land which Thou hast given to Thy people for inheritance.

³⁷Raha misy mosary amin'ny tany, na areti-mandringana, na mainan'ny rivotra ny vary, na maty fotsy, na misy valala sy sompanga, na misy fahavalo manao fahirano azy ao amin'ny taniny, dia ao amin'ny tanànany, na inona fahoriana, na inona aretina,

³⁷`Famine — when it is in the land; pestilence — when it is; blasting, mildew, locust; caterpillar — when it is; when its enemy hath distressed it in the land [in] its gates, any plague, any sickness, —

³⁸izay vavaka rehetra sy fifonana rehetra ataon'olona, na ny Isiraely olonao rehetra, izay samy mahalala ny fahorian'ny fony avy, ka mamelatra ny tànany manatrika ity trano ity izy

³⁸any prayer, any supplication that [is] of any man of all Thy people Israel, who know each the plague of his own heart, and hath spread his hands towards this house,

³⁹dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao, ka mamelà heloka, ary manaova, ka omeo ny olonao araka ny alehany rehetra, fa fantatrao ny fony (fa Hianao dia Hianao irery ihany no mahalala ny fon'ny zanak'olombelona rehetra),

³⁹then Thou dost hear in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, and hast forgiven, and hast done, and hast given to each according to all his ways, whose heart Thou knowest, (for Thou hast known — Thyself alone — the heart of all the sons of man),

⁴⁰mba hatahorany Anao amin'Izay andro rehetra hiainany etỳ amin'ny tany nomenao ny razanay.

⁴⁰so that they fear Thee all the days that they are living on the face of the ground that Thou hast given to our fathers.

⁴¹Ary henoy koa ny vahiny izay tsy isan'ny Isiraely olonao, fa tonga avy any amin'ny tany lavitra noho ny amin'ny anaranao izy

⁴¹`And also, unto the stranger who is not of Thy people Israel, and hath come from a land afar off for Thy name`s sake —

⁴²(fa ho reny ny anaranao lehibe sy ny tananao mahery ary ny sandrinao ahinjitra), koa raha avy izy ka mivavaka manatrika ity trano ity,

⁴²(for they hear of Thy great name, and of Thy strong hand, and of Thy stretched-out arm) — and he hath come in and prayed towards this house,

⁴³dia mihainoa any an-danitra fonenanao Hianao, ka manaova araka izay rehetra iantsoan'ny vahiny Anao, mba ho fantatry ny firenena rehetra ambonin'ny tany ny anaranao hatahorany Anao tahaka ny ataon'ny Isiraely olonao ihany, ary mba ho fantany fa ny anaranao no efa nantsoina tamin'ity trano nataoko ity.

⁴³Thou dost hear in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, and hast done according to all that the stranger calleth unto Thee for, in order that all the peoples of the earth may know Thy name, to fear Thee like Thy people Israel, and to know that Thy name hath been called on this house which I have builded.

⁴⁴Raha mivoaka hiady amin'ny fahavalon'ny olonao, na ho aiza na ho aiza no hanirahanao azy, ka mivavaka amin'i Jehovah manandrify ny tanàna izay nofidinao sy ny trano izay nataoko ho an'ny anaranao izy,

⁴⁴`When Thy people doth go out to battle against its enemy, in the way that Thou dost send them, and they have prayed unto Jehovah the way of the city which thou hast fixed on, and of the house which I have builded for Thy name;

⁴⁵dia henoy any an-danitra ny fivavany sy ny fifonany, ka omeo rariny izy.

⁴⁵then Thou hast heard in the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and hast maintained their cause.

⁴⁶Raha manota aminao izy (fa tsy misy olombelona tsy manota), ka tezitra aminy Hianao ary manolotra azy eo anoloan'ny fahavalony, ka dia ho entin'ny mpamabo ho babo any amin'ny tanin'ny fahavalo izy, na ho lavitra na ho akaiky.

⁴⁶`When they sin against Thee (for there is not a man who sinneth not), and Thou hast been angry with them, and hast given them up before an enemy, and they have taken captive their captivity unto the land of the enemy far off or near;

⁴⁷ary mahatsiaro any amin'ny tanin'ireo namabo azy ireo izy, ka mibebaka sy mifona aminao any amin'ny tany izay nitondrany azy ho babo ary manao hoe: Efa nanota izahay sady efa nanao meloka sy efa nanao ratsy.

⁴⁷and they have turned [it] back unto their heart in the land whither they have been taken captive, and have turned back, and made supplication unto Thee, in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned and done perversely — we have done wickedly;

⁴⁸ka dia miverina aminao amin'ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra ao amin'ny tanin'ny fahavalony izay namabo azy izy, ary mivavaka aminao manandrify ny taniny izay nomenao ny razany sy ny tanàna izay nofidinao ary ny trano izay nataoko ho an'ny anaranao,

⁴⁸yea, they have turned back unto Thee, with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed unto Thee the way of their land, which Thou gavest to their fathers, the city which Thou hast chosen, and the house which I have builded for Thy name:

⁴⁹dia henoy any an-danitra fonenanao ny fivavany sy ny fifonany, ka omeo rariny izy;

⁴⁹`Then Thou hast heard in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and hast maintained their cause,

⁵⁰eny, mamelà ny heloky ny olonao izay nanota taminao sy ny fahadisoany rehetra izay nataony taminao, ary ataovy mahazo famindram-po amin'izay mamabo azy izy, dia ny hamindran'ireo fo aminy;

⁵⁰and hast forgiven Thy people who have sinned against Thee, even all their transgressions which they have transgressed against Thee, and hast given them mercies before their captors, and they have had mercy [on] them —

⁵¹fa olonao sy lovanao izy, izay nentinao nivoaka avy tany Egypta, dia avy tao amin'ny memy fandrendreham-by,

⁵¹(for Thy people and Thy inheritance [are] they, whom Thou didst bring out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron) —

⁵²mba hihiratan'ny masonao amin'ny fifonan'ny mpanomponao sy ny fifonan'ny Isiraely olonao hihaino azy amin'izay rehetra iantsoany Anao.

⁵²for Thine eyes being open unto the supplication of Thy servant, and unto the supplication of Thy people Israel, to hearken unto them in all they call unto Thee for;

⁵³Fa Hianao, Jehovah, Tompo ô no nanavaka azy tamin'ny firenena rehetra ambonin'ny tany ho lovanao, araka izay nampilazainao an'i Mosesy mpanomponao tamin'ny nitondranao ny razanay nivoaka avy tany Egypta.

⁵³for Thou hast separated them to Thyself for an inheritance, out of all the peoples of the earth, as Thou didst speak by the hand of Moses Thy servant, in Thy bringing out our fathers from Egypt, O Lord Jehovah.`

⁵⁴Ary rehefa vita izany vavaka sy fifonana vehetra nataon'i Solomona tamin'i Jehovah: any, dia nitsangana niala teo amin'ny alitaran'i Jehovah izay efa nandohalehan'ny lohaliny sy efa namelarany ny tànany ho amin'ny lanitra izy.

⁵⁴And it cometh to pass, at Solomon`s finishing to pray unto Jehovah all this prayer and supplication, he hath risen from before the altar of Jehovah, from bending on his knees, and his hands spread out to the heavens,

⁵⁵Ary nitsangana izy ka nitso-drano ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, tamin'ny feo mahery hoe:

⁵⁵and he standeth and blesseth all the assembly of Israel [with] a loud voice, saying,

⁵⁶Isaorana anie Jehovah, izay nanome fitsaharana ho an'ny Isiraely olony araka izay rehetra nolazainy; tsy misy latsaka na dia teny iray aza tamin'izay teny soa rehetra nampilazainy an'i Mosesy mpanompony.

⁵⁶`Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He hath spoken; there hath not fallen one word of all His good word, which He spake by the hand of Moses his servant.

⁵⁷Jehovah Andriamanitsika anie no amintsika, tahaka ny tamin'ny razantsika; aoka tsy handao na hahafoy antsika Izy,

⁵⁷`Jehovah our God is with us as He hath been with our fathers; He doth not forsake us nor leave us;

⁵⁸mba hampanatoniny Azy ny fontsika handehanantsika amin'ny lalany rehetra sy hitandremantsika ny lalàny sy ny didiny ary ny fitsipiny izay nandidiany ny razantsika.

⁵⁸to incline our heart unto Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;

⁵⁹Ary aoka izany teny nifonako teto anatrehan'i Jehovah izany ho ao amin'i Jehovah Andriamanitsika andro aman'alina, mba hanomezany rariny ho ahy mpanompony sy ny Isiraely olony araka izay tandrifiny ho azy isan'andro,

⁵⁹and these my words with which I have made supplication before Jehovah, are near unto Jehovah our God by day and by night, to maintain the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of a day in its day;

⁶⁰mba ho fantatry ny firenena rehetra ambonin'ny tany fa Jehovah no Andriamanitra, fa tsy misy afa-tsy Izy.

⁶⁰for all the peoples of the earth knowing that Jehovah, He [is] God; there is none else;

⁶¹Ary aoka ho marina amin'i Jehovah Andriamanitsika anie ny fonareo, handehananareo amin'ny didiny sy hitandremanareo ny lalàny, tahaka ny amin'izao anio izao.

⁶¹and your heart hath been perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commands, as [at] this day.`

⁶²Ary ny mpanjaka sy ny Isiraely rehetra teo aminy dia namono zavatra hatao fanatitra eo anatrehan'i Jehovah.

⁶²And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah;

⁶³Ary Solomona namono zavatra hatao fanati-pihavanana, Izay nateriny ho an'i Jehovah, dia omby roa arivo amby roa alina sy ondry aman'osy roa alina amby iray hetsy. Toy izany no nitokanan'ny mpanjaka sy ny Zanak'Isiraely rehetra ny tranon'i Jehovah.

⁶³and Solomon sacrificeth the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he hath sacrificed to Jehovah, oxen, twenty and two thousand, and sheep, a hundred and twenty thousand; and the king and all the sons of Israel dedicate the house of Jehovah.

⁶⁴Ary androtr'io ihany no nanamasinan'ny mpanjaka ny afovoan'ny kianja izay teo anoloan'ny tranon'i Jehovah; fa teo no nanaterany fanatitra dorana sy fanatitra hohanina ary ny saboran'ny fanati-pihavanana; fa kely loatra ny alitara varahina izay teo anatrehan'i Jehovah ka tsy omby ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra hohanina ary ny saboran'ny fanati-pihavanana.

⁶⁴On that day hath the king sanctified the middle of the court that [is] before the house of Jehovah, for he hath made there the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for the altar of brass that [is] before Jehovah [is] too little to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings.

⁶⁵Ary tamin'izany andro izany Solomona sy ny Isiraely rehetra teo aminy, dia fiangonana lehibe hatrany akaikin'i Hamata ka hatramin'ny lohasahan-driak'i Egypta, dia nitandrina ny andro firavoravoana teo anatrehan'i Jehovah Andriamanitsika hafitoana indroa, dia efatra ambin'ny folo andro.Ary nony tamin'ny andro fahavalo dia nampodiny ny olona, ary nisaotra andriana izy, dia lasa nandeha ho any an-dainy avy, sady faly no ravoravo ny fony noho ny soa rehetra nataon'i Jehovah tamin'i Davida mpanompony sy ny Isiraely olony.

⁶⁵And Solomon maketh, at that time, the festival — and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt — before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days; fourteen days.

⁶⁶Ary nony tamin'ny andro fahavalo dia nampodiny ny olona, ary nisaotra andriana izy, dia lasa nandeha ho any an-dainy avy, sady faly no ravoravo ny fony noho ny soa rehetra nataon'i Jehovah tamin'i Davida mpanompony sy ny Isiraely olony.

⁶⁶On the eighth day he hath sent the people away, and they bless the king, and go to their tents, rejoicing and glad of heart for all the good that Jehovah hath done to David His servant, and to Israel His people.
