Berean Standard Bible
1所羅門 祈禱已畢,就有火從天上降下來,燒盡燔祭和別的祭。耶和華的榮光充滿了殿;
1When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
2因耶和華的榮光充滿了耶和華殿,所以祭司不能進殿。
2The priests were unable to enter the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled it.
3那火降下、耶和華的榮光在殿上的時候, 以色列 眾人看見,就在鋪石地俯伏叩拜,稱謝耶和華 說 : 耶和華本為善, 他的慈愛永遠長存!
3When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the LORD above the temple, they bowed down on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the LORD: “For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.”
4王和眾民在耶和華面前獻祭。
4Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the LORD.
5所羅門 王用牛二萬二千,羊十二萬獻祭。這樣,王和眾民為上帝的殿行奉獻之禮。
5And King Solomon offered a sacrifice of 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
6祭司侍立,各供其職; 利未 人也拿着耶和華的樂器,就是 大衛 王造出來、藉 利未 人頌讚耶和華的。(他的慈愛永遠長存!)祭司在眾人面前吹號, 以色列 人都站立。
6The priests stood at their posts, as did the Levites with the musical instruments of the LORD, which King David had made for giving thanks to the LORD and with which David had offered praise, saying, “For His loving devotion endures forever.” Across from the Levites, the priests sounded trumpets, and all the Israelites were standing.
7所羅門 因他所造的銅壇容不下燔祭、素祭,和脂油,便將耶和華殿前院子當中分別為聖,在那裏獻燔祭和平安祭牲的脂油。
7Then Solomon consecrated the middle of the courtyard in front of the house of the LORD, and there he offered the burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings, since the bronze altar he had made could not contain all these offerings.
8那時 所羅門 和 以色列 眾人,就是從 哈馬口 直到 埃及 小河,所有的 以色列 人都聚集成為大會,守節七日。
8So at that time Solomon and all Israel with him—a very great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast for seven days.
9第八日設立嚴肅會,行奉獻壇的禮七日,守節七日。
9On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly, for the dedication of the altar had lasted seven days, and the feast seven days more.
10七月二十三日,王遣散眾民;他們因見耶和華向 大衛 和 所羅門 與他民 以色列 所施的恩惠,就都心中喜樂,各歸各家去了。
10On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, Solomon sent the people away to their homes, joyful and glad of heart for the good things that the LORD had done for David, for Solomon, and for His people Israel.
11所羅門 造成了耶和華殿和王宮;在耶和華殿和王宮凡他心中所要做的,都順順利利地做成了。
11When Solomon had finished the house of the LORD and the royal palace, successfully carrying out all that was in his heart to do for the house of the LORD and for his own palace,
12夜間耶和華向 所羅門 顯現,對他說:「我已聽了你的禱告,也選擇這地方作為祭祀我的殿宇。
12the LORD appeared to him at night and said to him: “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice.
13我若使天閉塞不下雨,或使蝗蟲吃這地的出產,或使瘟疫流行在我民中,
13If I close the sky so there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among My people,
14這稱為我名下的子民,若是自卑、禱告,尋求我的面,轉離他們的惡行,我必從天上垂聽,赦免他們的罪,醫治他們的地。
14and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
15我必睜眼看、側耳聽在此處所獻的禱告。
15Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.
16現在我已選擇這殿,分別為聖,使我的名永在其中,我的眼、我的心也必常在那裏。
16For I have now chosen and consecrated this temple so that My Name may be there forever. My eyes and My heart will be there for all time.
17你若在我面前效法你父 大衛 所行的,遵行我一切所吩咐你的,謹守我的律例典章,
17And as for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,
18我就必堅固你的國位,正如我與你父 大衛 所立的約,說:『你 的子孫 必不斷人作 以色列 的王。』
18then I will establish your royal throne, as I covenanted with your father David when I said, ‘You will never fail to have a man to rule over Israel.’
19「倘若你們轉去丟棄我指示你們的律例誡命,去事奉敬拜別神,
19But if you turn away and forsake the statutes and commandments I have set before you, and if you go off to serve and worship other gods,
20我就必將 以色列 人從我賜給他們的地上拔出根來,並且我為己名所分別為聖的殿也必捨棄不顧,使他在萬民中作笑談,被譏誚。
20then I will uproot Israel from the soil I have given them, and I will banish from My presence this temple I have sanctified for My Name. I will make it an object of scorn and ridicule among all the peoples.
21這殿雖然甚高,將來經過的人必驚訝說:『耶和華為何向這地和這殿如此行呢?』
21And when this temple has become a heap of rubble, all who pass by it will be appalled and say, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’
22人必回答說:『是因此地的人離棄耶和華-他們列祖的上帝,就是領他們出 埃及 地的上帝,去親近別神,敬拜事奉他,所以耶和華使這一切災禍臨到他們。』」
22And others will answer, ‘Because they have forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them—because of this, He has brought all this disaster upon them.’”
