1 Kings 8
1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which [is] Zion.
Potem je Salomon zbral Izraelove starešine in vse poglavarje rodov, vodilne izmed očetov Izraelovih otrok, h kralju Salomonu v Jeruzalem, da bi lahko prinesli gor skrinjo Gospodove zaveze iz Davidovega mesta, ki je Sion.
2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which [is] the seventh month.
Vsi možje iz Izraela so se na praznik zbrali h kralju Salomonu, v mesecu etanímu, ki je sedmi mesec.
3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
Prišli so vsi Izraelovi starešine in duhovniki so dvignili skrinjo.
4 And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that [were] in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring up.
Gor so prinesli Gospodovo skrinjo, šotorsko svetišče skupnosti shoda in vse svete posode, ki so bile v šotorskem svetišču, celo te so duhovniki in Lévijevci prinesli gor.
5 And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, [were] with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
Kralj Salomon in vsa Izraelova skupnost, ki je bila zbrana k njemu, so bili z njim pred skrinjo. Žrtvovali so ovce in vole, ki se jih zaradi množice ni dalo ne povedati ne prešteti.
6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy [place, even] under the wings of the cherubims.
Duhovniki so skrinjo Gospodove zaveze prinesli na njeno mesto, v hišni orakelj, k najsvetejšemu kraju, celo pod peruti kerubov.
7 For the cherubims spread forth [their] two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
Kajti keruba sta svoji dve peruti razprostirala nad prostorom skrinje in keruba sta od zgoraj pokrivala skrinjo in njena drogova.
8 And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy [place] before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day.
Drogova so izvlekli, da sta se konca drogov videla iz svetega kraja pred orakljem, odzunaj pa nista bila vidna in tam sta do današnjega dne.
9 [There was] nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
V skrinji ni bilo ničesar razen dveh kamnitih plošč, ki ju je Mojzes položil tja pri Horebu, ko je Gospod sklenil zavezo z Izraelovi otroci, ko so prišli iz egiptovske dežele.
10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy [place], that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,
Pripetilo se je, ko so duhovniki prišli ven iz svetega kraja, da je oblak napolnil Gospodovo hišo,
11 So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.
tako da duhovniki zaradi oblaka niso mogli stati, da bi služili, kajti Gospodova slava je napolnila Gospodovo hišo.
12 Then spake Solomon, The LORD said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Potem je spregovoril Salomon: » Gospod je rekel, da bo prebival v gosti temi.
13 I have surely built thee an house to dwell in, a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.
Zagotovo sem ti zgradil hišo, da prebivaš v njej, ustaljen kraj zate, da v njem prebivaš na veke.«
14 And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: (and all the congregation of Israel stood; )
Kralj je obrnil svoj obraz naokrog in blagoslovil vso Izraelovo skupnost (in vsa Izraelova skupnost je stala)
15 And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, which spake with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled [it], saying,
in rekel je: »Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ki je s svojimi usti spregovoril mojemu očetu Davidu in je to izpolnil s svojo roko, rekoč:
16 Since 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 an house, that my name might be therein; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.
›Od dneva, ko sem svoje ljudstvo Izraela privedel ven iz Egipta, nisem izbral nobenega mesta izmed vseh Izraelovih rodov, da bi zgradil hišo, da bi bilo v njej lahko moje ime, temveč sem izbral Davida, da bo nad mojim ljudstvom Izraelom.‹
17 And it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
To je bilo na srcu mojega očeta Davida, da zgradi hišo za ime Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga.
18 And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to build an house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thine heart.
Gospod je rekel mojemu očetu Davidu: ›Medtem ko je bilo to v tvojem srcu, da zgradiš hišo mojemu imenu, si storil dobro, da je bilo to v tvojem srcu.
19 Nevertheless 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.
Vendar pa hiše ne boš gradil ti, temveč tvoj sin, ki bo izšel iz tvojih ledij, on bo zgradil hišo mojemu imenu.‹
20 And the LORD hath performed his word that he spake, and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
Gospod je izpolnil svojo besedo, ki jo je govoril in dvignjen sem bil na položaj svojega očeta Davida in sedim na Izraelovem prestolu, kakor je obljubil Gospod in zgradil sem hišo za ime Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga.
21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein [is] the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.
Tam sem pripravil prostor za skrinjo, v kateri je Gospodova zaveza, ki jo je on sklenil z našimi očeti, ko jih je privedel ven iz egiptovske dežele.«
22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven:
Salomon je stal pred Gospodovim oltarjem v prisotnosti vse Izraelove skupnosti in svoji roki razširil proti nebu
23 And he said, LORD God of Israel, [there is] no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath, who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee with all their heart:
in rekel: » Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ni Boga, podobnega tebi, na nebu zgoraj ali na zemlji spodaj, ki ohranjaš zavezo in usmiljenje s svojimi služabniki, ki z vsem svojim srcem hodijo pred teboj,
24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him: thou spakest also with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled [it] with thine hand, as [it is] this day.
ki si svojemu služabniku Davidu, mojemu očetu, ohranil to, kar si mu obljubil. Govoril si s svojimi usti in si to tudi izpolnil s svojo roko, kakor je to ta dan.
25 Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me.
Zato zdaj Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ohrani s svojim služabnikom Davidom, mojim očetom, to, kar si mu obljubil, rekoč: ›Ne bo ti zmanjkalo moža v mojem pogledu, da bi sedel na Izraelovem prestolu; samo da tvoji otroci pazijo na svojo pot, da hodijo pred menoj, kakor si ti hodil pred menoj.‹
26 And now, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be verified, which thou spakest unto thy servant David my father.
Sedaj, oh Izraelov Bog, naj bo tvoja beseda, prosim te, resnična, ki si jo govoril svojemu služabniku, mojemu očetu Davidu.
27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
Toda ali bo Bog zares prebival na zemlji? Glej, nebo in nebesa nebes te ne morejo obseči, kako veliko manj ta hiša, ki sem jo zgradil?
28 Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee to day:
Vendar se ozri na molitev svojega služabnika in k njegovi ponižni prošnji, oh Gospod, moj Bog, da prisluhneš klicu in molitvi, ki jo ta dan tvoj služabnik moli pred teboj,
29 That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, [even] toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place.
da bodo tvoje oči lahko ponoči in podnevi odprte proti tej hiši, torej proti kraju, o katerem si rekel: ›Moje ime bo tam, ‹ da boš lahko prisluhnil molitvi, ki jo bo tvoj služabnik naredil k temu kraju.
30 And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place: and when thou hearest, forgive.
Prisluhni ponižni prošnji svojega služabnika in svojega ljudstva Izraela, ko bodo molili k temu kraju. Pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem prebivališču. In ko si pozorno slišal, odpusti.
31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house:
Če se katerikoli človek prekrši zoper svojega bližnjega in je nanj položena prisega, da mu povzroči, da priseže in prisega pride pred tvoj oltar v tej hiši,
32 Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, ukrepaj in sodi svoja služabnika, obsodi zlobnega, da privedeš njegovo pot na njegovo glavo in opraviči pravičnega, da mu daš glede na njegovo pravičnost.
33 When thy people Israel be smitten down 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:
Ko bo tvoje ljudstvo Izrael udarjeno pred sovražnikom, ker so grešili zoper tebe in se bo ponovno obrnilo k tebi, priznalo tvoje ime, molilo in naredilo ponižno prošnjo k tebi v tej hiši,
34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest unto their fathers.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih in odpusti greh svojega ljudstva Izraela in jih ponovno privedi v deželo, ki jo daješ njihovim očetom.
35 When heaven is 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, when thou afflictest them:
Ko je nebo zaprto in ni dežja, ker so grešili zoper tebe; če molijo k temu kraju in priznajo tvoje ime in se obrnejo od svojega greha, ko si jih ti prizadel,
36 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, that thou teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih in odpusti greh svojih služabnikov in svojega ljudstva Izraela, da jih naučiš dobro pot, po kateri naj bi hodili in jim daš dež na svojo deželo, ki si jo dal svojemu ljudstvu v dediščino.
37 If there be in the land famine, if there be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, [or] if there be caterpiller; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness [there be; ]
Če bo v deželi lakota, če bo kužna bolezen, kvarjenje, plesen, leteča kobilica ali če bo tam gosenica; če jih njihov sovražnik oblega v deželi njihovih mest, kakršnakoli nadloga, kakršnakoli bolezen bo,
38 What prayer and supplication soever be [made] by any man, [or] by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
kakršnokoli molitev in ponižno prošnjo bo naredil katerikoli človek ali vse tvoje ljudstvo Izrael, ki bo spoznal, vsak mož nadlogo svojega lastnega srca in bo svoje roke razširil proti tej hiši,
39 Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, [even] thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men; )
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem prebivališču, odpusti, ukrepaj in daj vsakemu možu glede na njegove poti, čigar srce poznaš (kajti ti, celó le ti, poznaš srca vseh človeških otrok),
40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.
da se te bodo lahko bali vse dni, ki jih živijo v deželi, ki si jo dal našim očetom.
41 Moreover concerning a stranger, that [is] not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy name’s sake;
Poleg tega glede tujca, ki ni iz tvojega ljudstva Izraela, temveč zaradi tvojega imena prihaja iz daljne dežele
42 (For they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy stretched out arm; ) when he shall come and pray toward this house;
(kajti slišali bodo o tvojem velikem imenu, o tvoji močni roki in o tvojem iztegnjenem laktu), ko bo prišel in molil k tej hiši,
43 Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as [do] thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by thy name.
pozorno poslušaj v nebesih, svojem bivališču in ukrepaj glede na vse, za kar bo tujec klical k tebi, da bo vse ljudstvo zemlje lahko spoznalo tvoje ime, da se te boji, kakor to dela tvoje ljudstvo Izrael in da bodo lahko vedeli, da je ta hiša, ki sem jo zgradil, imenovana po tvojem imenu.
44 If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, whithersoever thou shalt send them, and shall pray unto the LORD toward the city which thou hast chosen, and [toward] the house that I have built for thy name:
Če gre tvoje ljudstvo ven na bitko zoper svojega sovražnika, kamorkoli jih boš poslal in bodo molili h Gospodu, k mestu, ki si ga ti izbral in k hiši, ki sem jo zgradil za tvoje ime,
45 Then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
potem pozorno poslušaj v nebesih njihovo molitev, njihovo ponižno prošnjo in obravnavaj njihov primer.
46 If they sin against thee, (for [there is] no man that sinneth not, ) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;
Če grešijo zoper tebe (kajti tam ni človeka, ki ne greši) in si jezen nanje in jih izročiš sovražniku, tako da jih odvedejo ujetnike v deželo sovražnika, daleč ali blizu,
47 [Yet] if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they were carried captives, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness;
vendar če si bodo premislili v deželi, kamor so bili odvedeni ujeti in se pokesajo in naredijo ponižno prošnjo k tebi, v deželi tistih, ki so jih odvedli ujete, rekoč: ›Grešili smo in storili pokvarjeno, zagrešili smo zlobnost‹
48 And [so] return unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:
in se tako vrnejo k tebi z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo v deželi svojih sovražnikov, ki so jih odvedli ujete in molijo k tebi, k svoji deželi, ki si jo dal njihovim očetom, mestu, ki si ga ti izbral in hiši, ki sem jo zgradil za tvoje ime,
49 Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place, and maintain their cause,
potem pozorno poslušaj njihovo molitev in njihovo ponižno prošnjo v nebesih, svojem prebivališču in obravnavaj njihov primer
50 And forgive thy people that have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against thee, and give them compassion before them who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them:
in odpusti svojemu ljudstvu, ker so grešili zoper tebe in vse njihove prestopke, s katerimi so se prekršili zoper tebe in jim daj sočutje pred tistimi, ki so jih odvedli ujete, da bodo lahko imeli sočutje do njih,
51 For they [be] thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron:
kajti oni so tvoje ljudstvo in tvoja dediščina, ki si jo privedel iz Egipta, iz srede železne talilne peči,
52 That thine eyes may be 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.
da bodo tvoje oči lahko odprte k ponižni prošnji tvojega služabnika in k ponižni prošnji tvojega ljudstva Izraela, da jim prisluhneš v vsem, v čemer kličejo k tebi.
53 For thou didst separate them from among all the people of the earth, [to be] thine inheritance, as thou spakest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord GOD.
Kajti oddvojil si jih izmed vsega zemeljskega ljudstva, da bi bili tvoja dediščina, kakor si govoril po roki svojega služabnika Mojzesa, ko si naše očete privedel iz Egipta, oh Gospod Bog.«
54 And it was [so], that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven.
Bilo je tako, ko je Salomon nehal moliti vso to molitev in ponižno prošnjo h Gospodu, da je vstal izpred Gospodovega oltarja od klečanja na svojih kolenih, s svojima rokama, razširjenima k nebu.
55 And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
Vstal je in z močnim glasom blagoslovil vso Izraelovo skupnost, rekoč:
56 Blessed [be] the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.
»Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki je svojemu ljudstvu Izraelu dal počitek, glede na vse, kar je obljubil. Niti ena beseda ni manjkala od vse njegove dobre obljube, ki jo je obljubil po roki svojega služabnika Mojzesa.
57 The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:
Gospod, naš Bog, naj bo z nami, kakor je bil z našimi očeti. Naj nas ne pusti niti naj nas ne zapusti,
58 That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
da bo lahko naša srca nagnil k sebi, da hodimo po vseh njegovih poteh in da ohranjamo vse njegove zapovedi, njegove zakone in njegove sodbe, ki jih je zapovedal našim očetom.
59 And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh unto the LORD our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:
Naj bodo te moje besede, s katerimi sem naredil ponižno prošnjo pred Gospodom, blizu Gospodu, našemu Bogu, podnevi in ponoči, da ohrani zadevo svojega služabnika in zadevo svojega ljudstva Izraela ob vseh časih, kakor bo stvar zahtevala,
60 That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD [is] God, [and that there is] none else.
da bo vse ljudstvo zemlje lahko vedelo, da Gospod je Bog in da tam ni nobenega drugega.
61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
Naj bo vaše srce torej popolno z Gospodom, našim Bogom, da se ravna po njegovih zakonih in da ohranja njegove zapovedi, kakor je ta dan.«
62 And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.
Kralj in ves Izrael z njim je daroval klavno daritev pred Gospodom.
63 And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered unto the LORD, two and twenty thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD.
Salomon je daroval žrtvovanje mirovnih daritev, ki jih je daroval Gospodu, dvaindvajset tisoč volov in sto dvajset tisoč ovc. Tako so kralj in vsi Izraelovi otroci posvetili Gospodovo hišo.
64 The same day did the king hallow the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brasen altar that [was] before the LORD [was] too little to receive the burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.
Istega dne je kralj posvetil sredino dvora, ki je bila pred Gospodovo hišo, kajti tam je daroval žgalne daritve, jedilne daritve in tolščo mirovnih daritev, ker je bil bronast oltar, ki je bil pred Gospodom, premajhen, da sprejme žgalne daritve, jedilne daritve in tolščo mirovnih daritev.
65 And at that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, [even] fourteen days.
Ob tistem času je Salomon priredil praznovanje in ves Izrael z njim, velika skupnost, od vhoda v Hamát do egiptovske reke, pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, sedem dni in sedem dni, torej štirinajst dni.
66 On the eighth day he sent the people away: and they blessed the king, and went unto their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
Na osmi dan je ljudstvo odposlal proč in blagoslovili so kralja in radostni in veselega srca zaradi vse dobrote, ki jo je Gospod storil za svojega služabnika Davida in za svoje ljudstvo Izrael, odšli k svojim šotorom.
