¹Vtedy povedal Šalamún: Hospodin riekol, že chce bývať v mrákave.

¹Then said Solomon: Jehovah said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

²A ja som ti, ó, Pane, vystavil dom za príbytok a stále miesto na to, aby si tam býval na veky.

²But I have built a house of habitation for thee, even a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.

³A kráľ obrátiac svoju tvár žehnal celému shromaždeniu Izraelovmu, a celé shromaždenie Izraelovo stálo.

³And the king turned his face and blessed the whole congregation of Israel; and the whole congregation of Israel stood.

⁴A riekol: Požehnaný Hospodin, Bôh Izraelov, ktorý hovoril svojimi ústami s Dávidom, mojím otcom, a svojimi rukami to naplnil povediac:

⁴And he said: Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hands fulfilled it, saying,

⁵Po celý čas od toho dňa, ktorého som vyviedol svoj ľud z Egyptskej zeme, nevyvolil som si niktorého mesta z niktorého pokolenia Izraelovho vystaviť dom, aby tam bolo moje meno, ani som si nevyvolil niktorého muža, aby bol vojvodom nad mojím ľudom Izraelom;

⁵Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be prince over my people Israel:

⁶ale som si vyvolil Jeruzalem, aby tam bolo moje meno, a vyvolil som si Dávida, aby bol nad mojím ľudom Izraelom.

⁶but I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

⁷A Dávid, môj otec, zamýšľal vystaviť menu Hospodina, Boha Izraelovho, dom.

⁷And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house unto the name of Jehovah the God of Israel.

⁸Ale Hospodin riekol Dávidovi, môjmu otcovi: To, že si zamýšľal vystaviť môjmu menu dom, dobre si učinil, že to bolo v tvojom srdci.

⁸But 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;

⁹Len že ty nebudeš staväť toho domu, ale tvoj syn, ktorý pojde z tvojich bedier, ten vystaví môjmu menu dom.

⁹nevertheless 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.

¹⁰A Hospodin splnil svoje slovo, ktoré hovoril. Lebo som povstal namiesto Dávida, svojho otca, a sedím na tróne Izraelovom tak, ako hovoril Hospodin, a vystavil som menu Hospodina, Boha Izraelovho, dom.

¹⁰And 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.

¹¹A postavil som tam truhlu, v ktorej je smluva Hospodinova, ktorú učinil so synmi Izraelovými.

¹¹And in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant of Jehovah, which he made with the children of Israel.

¹²A postavil sa pred oltár Hospodinov pred celým shromaždením Izraelovým a rozprestrel svoje ruky.

¹²And he stood before the altar of Jehovah in the presence of the whole congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands.

¹³Lebo Šalamún bol spravil medený nástupok, ktorý umiestil prostred nádvoria; päť lakťov bol dlhý, päť lakťov široký a tri lakte vysoký, a postavil sa naň. Potom kľakol na svoje kolená pred celým shromaždením Izraelovým a rozprestrúc svoje ruky k nebesiam

¹³For Solomon had made a platform of bronze, five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court; and upon it he stood, and he kneeled down on his knees before the whole congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward the heavens,

¹⁴riekol: Hospodine, Bože Izraelov, nie je tebe podobného Boha ani na nebi ani na zemi, ktorý ostríhaš smluvu a milosť svojim služobníkom, chodiacim pred tebou celým svojím srdcom,

¹⁴and said, Jehovah, God of Israel! there is no God like thee, in the heavens or on the earth, who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee with all their heart;

¹⁵ktorý si zachoval svojmu služobníkovi Dávidovi, môjmu otcovi, to, čo si mu hovoril; a hovoril si svojimi ústami a svojou rukou si to naplnil, ako to vidieť dnes.

¹⁵who 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.

¹⁶A tak teraz, Hospodine, Bože Izraelov, zachovaj svojmu služobníkovi Dávidovi, môjmu otcovi, to, čo si mu hovoril, povediac: Nebude ti vyhladený muž zpred mojej tvári, ktorý by sedel na tróne Izraelovom, ak len budú ostríhať tvoji synovia svoju cestu, aby chodili v mojom zákone, jako si ty chodil predo mnou.

¹⁶And 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 in my law, as thou hast walked before me.

¹⁷Nuž teraz, Hospodine, Bože Izraelov, nech stojí pevne tvoje slovo, ktoré si hovoril svojmu služobníkovi, Dávidovi.

¹⁷And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, let thy word be verified which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.

¹⁸Lebo či naozaj bude bývať Bôh s človekom na zemi?! Veď hľa, nebesia a nebesia nebies ťa neobsiahnu a čo potom tento dom, ktorý som vystavil!

¹⁸But will God indeed dwell with man on the earth? behold, the heavens and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!

¹⁹Ale však pohliadni na modlitbu svojho služobníka a na jeho pokornú prosbu, Hospodine, môj Bože, počujúc radostný krik a modlitbu, ktorú sa modlí tvoj služobník pred tebou,

¹⁹Yet 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;

²⁰aby boly tvoje oči otvorené na tento dom vodne i vnoci, na miesto, o ktorom si povedal, že tam položíš svoje meno, aby si vyslýchal modlitbu, ktorú sa bude modliť tvoj služobník, obrátený k tomuto miestu.

²⁰that thine eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place in which thou hast said thou wouldest put thy name: to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place.

²¹A budeš počúvať na pokorné prosby svojho služobníka a svojho ľudu Izraela, ktoré sa budú modliť k tomuto miestu, a tak ty vypočuješ z miesta svojho bývania, z nebies, a vyslyšíš a odpustíš.-

²¹And hearken unto the supplications of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they shall pray toward this place, and hear thou from thy dwelling-place, from the heavens, and when thou hearest, forgive.

²²Keby zhrešil človek proti svojmu blížnemu, a naloží mu prísahu, aby ju prisahal, a keď prijde prísaha pred tvoj oltár do tohoto domu,

²²If 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;

²³ty vypočuj z nebies a učiň a rozsúď svojich služobníkov zaplatiac bezbožnému dajúc mu jeho cestu na jeho hlavu a ospravedlniac spravedlivého dajúc mu podľa jeho spravedlivosti.-

²³then hear thou from the heavens, and do, and judge thy servants, requiting the wicked, to bring his way upon his own head; and justifying the righteous, giving him according to his righteousness.

²⁴A keby bol tvoj ľud Izrael porazený pred nepriateľom, preto, že zhrešili proti tebe a keď sa navrátia a budú oslavovať tvoje meno a budú sa modliť a pokorne prosiť pred tebou v tomto dome,

²⁴And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication before thee in this house;

²⁵ty vyslyš z nebies a odpusti hriech svojho ľudu Izraela a navráť ich do zeme, ktorú si im dal aj ich otcom.-

²⁵then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land that thou gavest to them and to their fathers.

²⁶Keby boly zavrené nebesia, a nebolo by dažďa, pretože zhrešili proti tebe a keby sa modlili, obrátení k tomuto miestu a oslavovali by tvoje meno a odvrátili by sa od svojho hriechu, pretože si ich ponížil,

²⁶When 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;

²⁷ty vyslyš na nebesiach a odpusti hriech svojich služobníkov a svojho ľudu Izraela, ktorých si ponížil, pretože ich učíš dobrej ceste, ktorou majú ísť, a daj dážď na svoju zem, ktorú si dal svojmu ľudu za dedičstvo.-

²⁷then 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.

²⁸Keby bol hlad v zemi, keby bol mor, sucho a ruda, kobylky a chrústy keby boly; keby ho sovrel jeho nepriateľ v zemi jeho brán, keby ho stihla jakákoľvek rana a jakákoľvek nemoc:

²⁸If there be famine in the land, if there be pestilence, if there be blight or mildew, locust or caterpillar; if their enemies besiege them in the land of their gates; whatever plague or whatever sickness there be:

²⁹každú modlitbu, každú pokornú prosbu, ktorú by mal ktorýkoľvek človek, alebo všetok tvoj ľud Izrael, ktorí by poznali, každý svoju ranu a svoju bolesť, a keby rozprestrel svoje ruky, obrátený k tomuto domu,

²⁹what prayer, what supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, when they shall know every man his own plague, and his own grief, and shall spread forth his hands toward this house;

³⁰ty vyslyš z nebies, na pevnom mieste svojho bývania a odpusti a daj každému podľa všetkých jeho ciest, ty, ktorý znáš jeho srdce,- lebo len ty sám znáš srdce synov človeka,-

³⁰then hear thou from the heavens, the settled place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and render unto every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou knowest (for thou, thou only, knowest the hearts of the children of men),

³¹aby sa ťa báli a chodili po tvojich cestách po všetky dni, ktoré budú žiť na tvári zeme, ktorú si dal našim otcom.

³¹that they may fear thee, to walk in thy ways, all the days that they live upon the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

³²Áno i cudzozemca, ktorý nie je z tvojho ľudu Izraela, keby prišiel z ďalekej zeme pre tvoje veľké meno a pre tvoju mocnú ruku a pre tvoje vystreté rameno, tedy keby prišli a modlili by sa, obrátení k tomuto domu,

³²And as to the stranger also, who is not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy great name's sake, and thy mighty hand and thy stretched-out arm; when they shall come and pray toward this house,

³³ty vyslyš z nebies, z pevného miesta svojho bývania a učiň všetko, o čo bude ktorý volať k tebe, cudzozemec, aby poznaly všetky národy zeme tvoje meno, a aby sa ťa báli, jako sa ťa bojí tvoj ľud Izrael, a aby vedeli, že je tvoje meno menované nad týmto domom, ktorý som vystavil.-

³³then hear thou from the heavens, the settled place of thy dwelling, 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 may fear thee as do thy people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.

³⁴Keby vyšiel tvoj ľud do boja proti svojim nepriateľom, cestou, ktorou by si ich poslal, a keď sa ti budú modliť, obrátení smerom k tomuto mestu, ktoré si si vyvolil, a k domu, ktorý som vystavil tvojmu menu,

³⁴If thy people go out to battle against their enemies by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray unto thee toward this city that thou hast chosen, and the house that I have built unto thy name;

³⁵vyslyš z nebies ich modlitbu a ich pokornú prosbu a učiň ich súd.-

³⁵then hear thou from the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their right.

³⁶Keby zhrešili proti tebe, lebo veď nieto človeka, ktorý by nehrešil, a rozhneval by si sa na nich a vydal by si ich nepriateľovi, a ich jatci by ich zajali do ďalekej zeme alebo hoc i do blízkej,

³⁶If 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 a land far off or near;

³⁷a keby vstúpili do svojho srdca v zemi, v ktorej by boli zajatí, a keby sa obrátili a pokorne by prosili volajúc k tebe v zemi svojho zajatia a vraveli by: Zhrešili sme, činili sme prevrátene a páchali sme bezbožnosť,

³⁷and 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 their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done iniquity and have dealt perversely;

³⁸a tedy keby sa obrátili k tebe celým svojím srdcom a celou svojou dušou v zemi svojho zajatia, do ktorej by ich zajali, a keby sa modlili, obrátení smerom k svojej zemi, ktorú si dal ich otcom, a smerom k mestu, ktoré si vyvolil, a k domu, ktorý som vystavil tvojmu menu,

³⁸and if they return unto thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land which thou gavest unto their fathers, and the city that thou hast chosen, and the house that I have built unto thy name;

³⁹vyslyš z nebies, z pevného miesta svojho bývania, ich modlitbu a ich pokorné prosby a učiň ich súd a odpusti svojmu ľudu, čo zhrešili proti tebe.

³⁹then hear thou from the heavens, from the settled place of thy dwelling, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their right, and forgive thy people their sin against thee.

⁴⁰Teraz, môj Bože, nech sú, prosím, tvoje oči otvorené a tvoje uši pripravené počuť modlitbu z tohoto miesta.

⁴⁰Now, my God, I beseech thee, let thine eyes be open and let thine ears be attentive unto the prayer [that is made] in this place.

⁴¹A tak teraz povstaň, Hospodine, Bože, aby si si odpočinul ty i truhla tvojej sily; tvoji kňazi, Hospodine, Bože, nech sa oblečú v spasenie, a tvoji svätí nech sa radujú v dobrom!

⁴¹And now, arise, Jehovah Elohim, into thy resting-place, thou and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, Jehovah Elohim, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in [thy] goodness.

⁴²Hospodine, Bože, neodvracuj tvári svojho pomazaného, pamätaj na rôznu milosť, preukázanú Dávidovi, svojmu služobníkovi!

⁴²Jehovah Elohim, turn not away the face of thine anointed: remember mercies to David thy servant.
