1Then Solomon said: The Lord promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
1To pacoengah Solomon mah, Angraeng mah tamai kaving thungah ka oh han, tiah thuih roe boeh;
2But I have built a house to his name, that he might dwell there for ever.
2toe nang hanah ohhaih im, dungzan ohhaih im maeto ka sak boeh, tiah a naa.
3And the king turned his face, and blessed all the multitude of Israel (for all the multitude stood attentive) and he said:
3Israel kaminawk angdoet o naah, siangpahrang mah angqoi moe, Israel kaminawk boih to tahamhoihaih paek.
4Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath accomplished in deed that which he spoke to David my father, saying:
4Nihcae khaeah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw, ahmin pakoehhaih om nasoe, anih mah kam pa David khaeah, pakha hoi thuih ih lok to a ban hoi koepsak boeh; Anih mah,
5From the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built in it to my name: neither chose I any other man, to be the ruler of my people Israel.
5Izip prae hoi kaimah ih kaminawk ka zaehhoihaih ni hoi kamtong, Ka hmin ohhaih im sak hanah, Israel acaengnawk ohhaih ahmuen ih vangpui maeto doeh ka qoi ai; kaimah ih kami Israel caanawk ukkung mi doeh ka qoi ai vop;
6But I chose Jerusalem, that my name might be there: and I chose David to set him over my people Israel.
6toe Ka hmin oh haih hanah, Jerusalem to ka qoih; kaimah ih kami Israel caanawk ukkung ah David to ka qoih boeh, tiah thuih.
7And whereas David my father had a mind to build a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel,
7Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin oh haih hanah, kam pa David mah im sak han poekhaih a tawnh.
8The Lord said to him: Forasmuch as it was thy will to build a house to my name, thou hast done well indeed in having such a will:
8Toe Angraeng mah kam pa David khaeah, Kai ih ahmin hanah im sak na tim pongah, hmuen kahoih na sak boeh.
9But thou shalt not build the house, but thy son, who shall come out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.
9Toe nang mah im na sah mak ai; nangmah ih athii angan hoiah tacawt na capa mah ni, Kai ih ahmin hanah im to sah tih, tiah a naa.
10The Lord therefore hath accomplished his word which he spoke: and I am risen up in the place of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel.
10Angraeng loe a thuih ih lok baktih toengah sak; Angraeng lokkamhaih baktih toengah, kam pa David zuengah kai ka oh moe, Israel angraeng tangkhang nuiah kang hnut; Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin hanah im to ka sak.
11And I have put in it the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with the children of Israel.
11Angraeng mah Israel caanawk hoi sak ih lokkamhaih thingkhong to, athung ah ka suek boeh, tiah a thuih.
12And he stood before the altar of the I Lord, in presence of all the multitude of Israel, and stretched forth his hands.
12Solomon mah Israel kaminawk boih hma ih, Angraeng hmaicam hmaa ah, angdoet moe, a ban to payangh;
13For Solomon had made a brazen scaffold, and had set it in the midst of the temple, which was five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high: and he stood upon it: then kneeling down in the presence of all the multitude of Israel, and lifting up his hands towards heaven,
13Solomon mah sumkamling hoi sak ih dong pangato kasawk, dong pangato kakawk, dong thumto kasang, angdoethaih hmaicam to longhma um li ah a suek; anih loe to hmaicam ah sak ih im nuiah angdoet, Israel kaminawk boih hmaa ah khokkhu cangkrawn hoiah akuep moe, van bangah a ban to payangh.
14He said: O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven nor in earth: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:
14To pacoengah, Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, Long hoi van ah nang hoi kanghmong Sithaw mi doeh om ai; na hmaa ah pathungthin tang hoi na loklam pazui na tamnanawk hanah, lokmaihaih hoi tahmenhaih to na koepsak boeh;
15Who hast performed to thy servant David my father all that thou hast promised him: and hast accomplished in fact, what thou hast spoken with thy mouth, as also the present time proveth.
15na tamna kam pa David khaeah lokkamhaih to na pakuem poe; pakha hoi thuih ih lok to vaihniah na ban hoiah na koepsak boeh.
16Now then, O Lord God of Israel, fulfill to thy servant David my father, whatsoever thou hast promised him, saying: There shall not fail thee a man in my sight, to sit upon the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their ways, and walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
16To pongah Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, Nang loe, ka hmaa ah na caeh baktih toengah, na capanawk mah ka paek ih lok pazui o thai hanah, a caeh o haih loklam boih ah acoe o nahaeloe, ka hmaa ah Israel ih angraeng tangkhang pongah anghnu han koi kami apet mak ai, tiah kam pa khaeah na thuih ih lok to koepsak ah, tiah a naa.
17And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy word be established which thou hast spoken to thy servant David.
17Aw Israel Angraeng Sithaw, na tamna David khaeah na thuih ih lok to, vaihiah koepsak ah.
18Is it credible then that God should dwell with men on the earth? If heaven and the heavens of heavens do not contain thee, how much less this house, which I have built?
18Toe Sithaw loe long kaminawk khaeah om tangtang tih maw? Khenah, vannawk hoi kasang koek vannawk mataeng doeh, nang ohhaih hanah acaeh ai; ka sak ih hae im cae loe kawkruk maw tamcaek!
19But to this end only it is made, that thou mayest regard the prayer of thy servant and his supplication, O Lord my God: and mayest hear the prayers which thy servant poureth out before thee.
19Toe Aw ka Angraeng Sithaw, vaihiah na tamna mah na hmaa ah tahmen hnikhaih hoi thuih ih lok to na tahngai pae ah;
20That thou mayest open thy eyes upon this house day and night, upon the place wherein thou hast promised that thy name should be called upon,
20ka hmin ka suek han, tiah na thuih ih ahmuen ah, aqum athun na mik padai ah; na tamnanawk mah hae ahmuen hoi lawkthuihaih to tahngai ah.
21And that thou wouldst hear the prayer which thy servant prayeth in it: hearken then to the prayers of thy servant, and of thy people Israel. Whosoever shall pray in this place, hear thou from thy dwelling place, that is, from heaven, and shew mercy.
21Na tamna hoi nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk mah, hae ahmuen hoi tahmen hnikhaih lawkthuih o naah, na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah tahngai paeh loe, na thaih naah tahmen paeh.
22If any man sin against his neighbour, and come to swear against him, and bind himself with a curse before the altar in this house:
22Kami mah a imtaeng kami mui ah zaehaih sakmoeng moe, a imtaeng kami mah lokkamhaih saksak hanah, hae im thung ih hmaicam hmaa ah angzo moe, lokkamhaih to sah nahaeloe,
23Then hear thou from heaven, and do justice to thy servants, so as to requite the wicked by making his wickedness fall upon his own head, and to revenge the just, rewarding him according to his justice.
23van hoiah tahngai pae ah; kazae kami loe a sakpazaehaih baktih toengah lu nuiah krahsak ah loe, zaehaih tawn ai kami loe zaehaih tawn ai baktih toengah, a toenghaih atho to paek hanah, na tamnanawk nuiah lokcaek ah.
24If thy people Israel be overcome by their enemies, (for they will sin against thee,) and being converted shall do penance, and call upon thy name, and pray to thee in this place,
24Nangmah ih kami Israelnawk mah, na nuiah zaehaih sak o pongah, angmacae ih misanawk mah pazawk naah, nang khaeah amlaem o moe, na hmin to kawk o pacoengah, hae im hmaa ah tahmenhaih hni o moe, lawkthui o nahaeloe,
25Then hear thou from heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back into the land, which thou gavest to them, and their fathers.
25van hoiah tahngai pae ah loe, nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk ih zaehaih to tahmen ah; nihcae to angmacae hoi ampanawk khaeah na paek ih prae thungah caeh haih let ah.
26If the heavens be shut up, and there fall no rain by reason of the sins of the people, and they shall pray to thee in this place, and confess to thy name, and be converted from their sins, when thou dost afflict them,
26Nihcae mah na hmaa ah zaehaih sak o pongah, khokhaahaih oh moe, van hoiah kho angzo ai, to tiah nihcae to na thuitaek naah, angmacae zaehaih to caeh o taak moe, hae ahmuen ah lawkthuihaih hoiah na hmin to kawk o nahaeloe,
27Then hear thou from heaven, O Lord, and forgive the sins of thy servants and of thy people Israel, and teach them the good way, in which they may walk: and give rain to thy land which thou hast given to thy people to possess.
27van hoiah tahngai pae ah loe, na tamnanawk, nangmah ih kami Israel caanawk ih zaehaih to tahmen ah; nihcae mah pazui han ih loklam kahoih to patuek ah loe, kai ih kaminawk hanah qawk ah na paek ih, prae nuiah kho angzosak ah.
28If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence or blasting, or mildew, or locusts, or caterpillars: or if their enemies waste the country, and besiege the cities, whatsoever scourge or infirmity shall be upon them:
28Prae thungah raihaih hoi khokhaahaih phak naah maw, takhi sae pongah duekhaih maw, hmuen tapokhaih pongah maw, dantui amkawhaih pongah maw, pakhuh pung pongah maw, langkawk pung pongah maw, misa mah vangpuinawk takui khoep pongah maw, ngannathaih hoi angoihaih phak naah maw,
29Then if any of thy people Israel, knowing his own scourge and infirmity shall pray, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,
29nangmah ih Israel kaminawk boih mah, a tongh o ih raihaih hoi nathaihnawk to panoek o naah, nang khaeah lawkthui o moe, tahmen hnikhaih hoiah hae im ah ban payangh o nahaeloe,
30Hear thou from heaven, from thy high dwelling place, and forgive, and render to every one according to his ways, which thou knowest him to have in his heart: (for thou only knowest the hearts of the children of men:)
30na ohhaih van hoiah tahngai pae ah; nihcae ih palungthin panoekkung loe nang ni; (nang khue mah ni kaminawk ih palungthin to panoek) nihcae zaehaih to tahmen ah; kami boih a sak o ih hmuen baktiah lokcaek ah;
31That they may fear thee, and walk in thy ways all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.
31to tiah nahaeloe nihcae mah na zii o ueloe, kam panawk khaeah na paek ih prae thungah oh o nathung, nang ih loklam ah caeh o tih.
32If the stranger also, who is not of thy people Israel, come from a far country, for the sake of thy great name, and thy strong hand, and thy stretched out arm, and adore in this place:
32Nangmah ih Israel kami ai, prae kalah kaminawk to prae kangthla hoiah angzo o moe, na hmin lensawkhaih hoiah na ban thacakhaih pongah, ban payangh o moe, hae im bangah lawkthui o nahaeloe,
33Hear thou from heaven thy firm dwelling place, and do all that which that stranger shall call upon thee for: that all the people of the earth may know thy name, and may fear thee, as thy people Israel, and may know, that thy name is invoked upon this house, which I have built.
33na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah tahngai pae ah; prae kalah kaminawk mah ang hnik o ih hmuen boih to sah pae ah; to tiah ni long nui ih kaminawk boih mah na hmin to panoek o tih; nangmah ih Israel kaminawk mah nang ang zit o baktih toengah, nang to zii o ueloe, na hmin ohhaih han ih ni hae im hae ka sak, tiah panoek o tih.
34If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by the way that thou shalt send them, and adore thee towards the way of this city, which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:
34Na patoeh ih baktih toengah, nangmah ih kaminawk misatukhaih ahmuen ah caeh o naah, na qoih ih hae vangpui hoi na hmin hanah ka sak ih hae im bangah lawkthui o nahaeloe,
35Then hear thou from heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and revenge them.
35nihcae lawkthuihaih hoi tahmen hnikhaih to van hoiah tahngai paeh loe, nihcae to khenzawn ah.
36And if they sin against thee (for there is no man that sinneth not) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them up to their enemies, and they lead them away captive to a land either afar off, or near at hand,
36Na nuiah a zae o naah (zaehaih tawn ai kami mi doeh om ai) nihcae nuiah palung na phui moe, nihcae to angmacae ih misanawk khaeah na paek, misanawk mah nihcae to kangthla ah maw, kazoi ah maw, misong ah caeh o haih;
37And if they be converted in their heart in the land to which they were led captive, and do penance, and pray to thee in the land of their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done wickedly, we have dealt unjustly:
37minawk prae ah misong ah oh o nathuem ah, poekhaih amkhraih o moe, misong ah oh o haih prae hoiah nang khaeah, Na hmaa ah ka zae o moeng boeh, kamsoem ai hmuen to ka sak o moe, kahoih ai hmuen ka sak o moeng boeh, tiah lawkthui o nahaeloe,
38And return to thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their captivity, to which they were led away, and adore thee towards the way of their own land which thou gavest their fathers, and of the city, which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:
38misong ah oh o haih prae thung hoiah palungthin boih hoiah nang khaeah amlaem o let moe, ampanawk khaeah na paek ih prae, na qoih ih vangpui, na hmin hanah ka sak ih im bangah anghaehaih hoiah lawkthui o nahaeloe,
39Then hear thou from heaven, that is, from thy firm dwelling place, their prayers, and do judgment, and forgive thy people, although they have sinned:
39na ohhaih ahmuen, van hoiah nihcae lawkthuihaih hoi tahmen hnikhaih to tahngai pae ah; nihcae to khenzawn ah; na hmaa ah zaehaih sah kaminawk to tahmen ah.
40For thou art my God: let thy eyes, I beseech thee, be open, and let thy ears be attentive to the prayer, that is made in this place.
40Aw ka Sithaw, vaihiah na mik padaih loe, hae ahmuen hoiah nang khaeah lawkthuihaih lok to tahngai ah.
41Now therefore arise, O Lord God, into thy resting place, thou and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O Lord God, put on salvation, and thy saints rejoice in good things.
41Aw ka Angraeng Sithaw, vaihi nang hakhaih ahmuen ah, nangmah hoi na thacak Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong hoi nawnto angthawk tahang ah; Aw Angraeng Sithaw, nangmah ih qaimanawk mah pahlonghaih to angkhuk o nasoe loe, nangmah ih kaciim kaminawk loe na hoihhaih ah anghoe o nasoe.
42O Lord God, turn not away the face of thy anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant.
42Aw Angraeng Sithaw, situi na bawh ih kami to pahnet hmah; na tamna David khaeah paek ih kalen parai tahmenhaih to pahnet hmah, tiah lawk a thuih.
