¹In ko je Salomon izmolil, švigne ogenj z neba in požre žgalno in klalno daritev. In slava GOSPODOVA je napolnila hišo.

¹And 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,

²In duhovniki niso mogli stopiti v hišo GOSPODOVO, ker je slava GOSPODOVA napolnila hišo.

²and 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.

³In vsi sinovi Izraelovi so gledali, ko je prišel ogenj doli in je bila slava GOSPODOVA nad hišo; in pripognili so se z obrazom do tal, na tlak, in so molili in zahvaljevali GOSPODA, ker je dobrotljiv, ker vekomaj traja milost njegova.

³And 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.

⁴In kralj in vse ljudstvo so darovali klalne daritve pred GOSPODOM.

⁴And the king and all the people are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah,

⁵In kralj Salomon je daroval dvaindvajset tisoč goved in stoindvajset tisoč glav drobnice. Tako so posvetili hišo Božjo kralj in vse ljudstvo.

⁵and 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.

⁶In stali so duhovniki in stregli po svoji službi, tudi leviti z glasbenim orodjem GOSPODOVIM, ki ga je bil napravil kralj David, da zahvaljujejo GOSPODA, ker vekomaj traja milost njegova, s psalmi Davidovimi v roki; in duhovniki so trobili na trobente njim nasproti, in ves Izrael je stal.

⁶And 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.

⁷In kralj Salomon je posvetil sredo dvorišča, ki je bilo pred hišo GOSPODOVO; zakaj tam je daroval žgalne daritve in tolstino mirovnih daritev, ker bronasti oltar, ki ga je bil Salomon napravil, je bil premajhen, da bi sprejel žgalne in mirovne daritve in tolstino.

⁷And 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.

⁸In tisti čas je praznoval Salomon praznik sedem dni in ves Izrael ž njim, silno velik zbor, ki se je sešel od vhoda v Hamat do Egiptovskega potoka.

⁸And 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.

⁹In osmi dan so imeli slovesno zborovanje; kajti praznovali so posvečevanje oltarja sedem dni, praznik pa tudi sedem dni.

⁹And they make on the eighth day a restraint, because the dedication of the altar they have made seven days, and the feast seven days.

¹⁰In triindvajseti dan sedmega meseca je razpustil ljudstvo v njih šatore veselo in dobre volje zaradi dobrot, ki jih je izkazal GOSPOD Davidu in Salomonu in Izraelu, ljudstvu svojemu.

¹⁰And 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.

¹¹Tako je dokončal Salomon hišo GOSPODOVO in hišo kraljevo; in vse, kar je prišlo Salomonu v srce, da napravi v hiši GOSPODOVI in v lastni hiši, je uspešno dovršil.

¹¹And 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.

¹²In GOSPOD se prikaže Salomonu po noči in mu reče: Uslišal sem molitev tvojo in sebi izvolil to mesto za daritveno hišo.

¹²And 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.

¹³Kadar zaprem nebo, da ne bo dežja, ali če zapovem kobilicam, da pojedo deželo, ali če pošljem kugo med ljudstvo svoje:

¹³If 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 --

¹⁴ako se bo ljudstvo moje, ki je imenovano po mojem imenu, ponižalo in molilo in iskalo obličje moje ter se odvrnilo od hudobnih poti svojih: tedaj uslišim iz nebes in odpustim njih greh in ozdravim njih deželo.

¹⁴and 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.

¹⁵Sedaj bodo oči moje odprte in ušesa moja bodo pazila na molitev, ki se opravlja na tem mestu.

¹⁵`Now, Mine eyes are open, and Mine ears attentive, to the prayer of this place;

¹⁶Kajti sedaj sem izvolil in posvetil to hišo, da bodi moje ime tukaj vekomaj, in moje oči in srce moje naj bodo vselej tu.

¹⁶and 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.

¹⁷Ti pa, če boš hodil pred menoj, kakor je hodil David, oče tvoj, da storiš po vsem, kar sem ti zapovedal, in boš držal postave in sodbe moje:

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 --

¹⁸tedaj utrdim stol kraljestva tvojega, kakor sem se zavezal Davidu, očetu tvojemu, rekoč: Ne bo ti zmanjkalo moža, ki bo vladal Izraelu.

¹⁸then 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;

¹⁹Ako se pa boste odvrnili in zapustili postave in zapovedi moje, ki sem vam jih predložil, in pojdete služit drugim bogovom ter jih boste molili:

¹⁹and 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,

²⁰tedaj jih izkoreninim iz svoje dežele, ki sem jo jim dal, in hišo to, ki sem jo posvetil za svoje ime, zavržem izpred obličja svojega in jo dam v pregovor in v zabavljico med vsemi ljudstvi.

²⁰and 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.

²¹In ob tej hiši, ki je bila tako visoka, bo vsak strmel, kdor pojde mimo, in dejal: Zakaj je GOSPOD tako storil tej deželi in tej hiši?In poreko: Ker so zapustili GOSPODA, očetov svojih Boga, ki jih je izpeljal iz dežele Egiptovske, in so se oklenili drugih bogov ter jih molili in jim služili: zato je pripravil nadnje vso to nesrečo.

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?

²²In poreko: Ker so zapustili GOSPODA, očetov svojih Boga, ki jih je izpeljal iz dežele Egiptovske, in so se oklenili drugih bogov ter jih molili in jim služili: zato je pripravil nadnje vso to nesrečo.

²²and 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.'
