1Then Solomon said: The Lord promised that he would dwell in a cloud.
1A LAILA, olelo aku la o Solomona, I mai la o Iehova, e no ho ia iloko o ka pouli nui.
2But I have built a house to his name, that he might dwell there for ever.
2Aka, ua kukulu au i hale noho nou, i wahi nou e noho mau loa ai.
3And the king turned his face, and blessed all the multitude of Israel (for all the multitude stood attentive) and he said:
3Alaila, huli ae la ko ke alii mau maka, a hoomaikai aku la ia i ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela; a ku ae la iluna ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela.
4Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath accomplished in deed that which he spoke to David my father, saying:
4Olelo aku la ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i olelo mai me kona waha ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, a hooko mai hoi me kona mau lima, i ka i ana mai,
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.
5Mai ka wa mai a'u i lawe mai ai i ko'u poe kanaka mai ka aina mai o Aigupita, aole au i wae aku i kulanakauhale noloko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i wahi e kukulu ai i hale e waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; aole hoi au i wae aku i ke kanaka e noho alii maluna o ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
6But I chose Jerusalem, that my name might be there: and I chose David to set him over my people Israel.
6Aka, ua wae aku au ia Ierusalema i waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; a ua wae aku au ia Davida e noho maluna o ko'u poe kanaka, o ka Iseraela.
7And whereas David my father had a mind to build a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel,
7Aia no iloko o ka naau o Davida, ko'u makua e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
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:
8Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, aia no iloko o kou naau e kukulu i hale no ko'u inoa, a ua pono ia manao iloko o kou naau.
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.
9Aka hoi, aole oe e kukulu i ka hale, o kau keiki ka mea e puka mai ana mai loko mai o kou puhaka, oia ka mea nana e kukulu ka hale no ko'u inoa.
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.
10Ua hooko mai o Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai; no ka mea, ua ku ae au mahope o Davida ko'u makuakane, a ke noho nei au maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela e like me ka olelo a Iehova, a ua kukulu au i hale no ka inoa o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
11And I have put in it the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with the children of Israel.
11A ua hookomo au ilaila i ka pahu, aia iloko ka berita o Iehova ana i hana'i me ka poe mamo a Iseraela.
12And he stood before the altar of the I Lord, in presence of all the multitude of Israel, and stretched forth his hands.
12Ku ae la iluna o Solomona imua o ke kuahu o Iehova, imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima.
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,
13No ka mea, ua hana o Solomona i awai keleawe, elima kubita ka loa, elima ka laula, a ekolu ke kiekie, a ua waiho oia ia mea mawae na konu o ka pahale; a ku oia ma luna o ia mea, kukuli ihe la ma kona kuli imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima i ka lani,
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:
14Olelo aku la ia, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aohe Akua e like me oe ma ka lani, aole hoi ma ka honua, e malama ana i ka berita a me ke aloha no kau poe kauwa, no ka poe e hele ana imua ou me ko lakou naau a pau.
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.
15Ua malama mai oe i ka mea au i olelo mai ai i kau kauwa ia Davida i ko'u makua. Ua olelo mai oe me kou waha, a ua hooko mai me kou lima e like me ia i keia la.
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.
16Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooko mai no kau kauwa no Davida, no ko'u makuakane i ka mea au i olelo mai ai ia ia, i mai ana, Aole oe e nele i ke kanaka imua o'u e noho maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela, ke malama kau poe mamo i ko lakou aoao e hele ma ko'u kanawai e like me kou he le ana imua o'u.
17And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy word be established which thou hast spoken to thy servant David.
17Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooiaioia ka olelo au i olelo ai i kau kauwa ia Davida.
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?
18Aka, he mea oiaio anei, e noho ana ke Akua me kanaka ma ka honua? Aia hoi, he uuku ia oe ka lani, a me ka lani o na lani! Pehea hoi keia hale a'u i hana ai!
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.
19E maliu mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i ka mea ana i noi aku ai, e Iehova, e ko'u Akua, e hoolohe i ke kahea ana'ku a me ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku nei imua ou:
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,
20I kaakaa kou mau maka maluna o keia hale i ke ao, a me ka po, maluna o kahi au i olelo ai e waiho mai i kou inoa malaila; e hoolohe i ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku ai ma keia wahi.
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.
21E hoolohe mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, ka mea a lakou i noi aku ai ma keia wahi. E maliu mai oe, mai kou wahi e noho ai, mai ka lani mai, e hoolohe mai a e kala mai hoi.
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:
22Ina e hana hewa ke kanaka i kona hoalauna, a kauia maluna ona ka olelo hoohiki i mea nona e hoohiki ai, a komo ka olelo hoohiki imua o kou kuahu iloko o keia hale;
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.
23Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e hooponopono, a e hookolokolo i kau poe kauwa, e hoouku i ka mea hewa, e hoopai no i kona aoao maluna o kona poo iho; a e apono mai i ka mea pono, e haawi ia ia e like me kona pono iho.
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,
24Ina e hee kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o ko lakou poe enemi, no ka lakou hana hewa ana ia oe; a huli lakou a hooia i kou inoa, a e pule aku a e noi aku imua ou iloko o keia hale;
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.
25Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai. a e kala mai i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a e hoihoi ia lakou ma ka aina au i haawi mai ai ia lakou, a me ko lakou poe kupuna.
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,
26I ka wa e paa ai ka lani, aohe ua, no ka mea, ua hana hewa lakou ia oe; a pule lakou ma keia hale, a e hooia aku i kou inoa, a e huli ae mai ko lakou hewa mai, i ka wa au e hookaumaha ai ia lakou;
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.
27Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela i ka wa e ao ai oe ia lakou i ka aoao maikai kahi a lakou e hele ai; a e haawi mai oe i ka ua maluna o ka aina au i haawi ai i kou poe kanaka i mea e ili mau ana no lakou.
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:
28Ina he kau wi ma ka aina, he ahulau, he huaai malili paha, a me ka punahelu, a me na uhini, a me na peelua; ina o puni lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, ma ka aina ma ko lakou mau ipuka; o ka eha a me ke kaumaha a pau;
29Then if any of thy people Israel, knowing his own scourge and infirmity shall pray, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,
29O ka pule a pau, a me ke noi ana'ku a pau a kela kanaka keia kanaka a kou poe kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela e pule aku ai, aia ike kela mea keia mea i kona eha a me kona kaumaha, a e hohola ia i ko na mau lima ma keia hale;
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:)
30Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, o kou wahi e noho ai, a e kala mai, a e haawi i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona aoao iho, i kou ike ana i kona naau; (no ka mea, o oe wale no ka i ike i ka naau o na keiki a kanaka;)
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.
31I makau lakou ia oe, i hele ma kou aoao i na la a pau loa o ko lakou ola ana ma ka aina au i haawi mai ai i ko makou poe kupuna.
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:
32A o ka malihini, ka mea aole no kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, ka mea i hele mai, mai ka ai na loihi e mai, no kou inoa nui, a no kou lima ikaika, a me kou lima kakauha; a hele mai lakou e pule ma keia hale;
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.
33Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, mai kou wahi e noho ai, a e hana e like me na mea a ka malihini e kahea aku ai ia oe; i ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua i kou inoa, a i makau lakou ia oe e like me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a i ike noi lakou ua kapaia kou inoa maluna o keia hale a'u i hana ai.
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:
34I ka wa i hele aku ai kou poe kanaka e kaua aku i ko lakou poe enemi ma ka aoao au e hoouna aku ai lakou, a e pule lakou ma ke alo ma keia kulanakauhale au i wae mai ai, a ma ka hale a'u i hana ai no kou inoa;
35Then hear thou from heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and revenge them.
35Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai i ka lakou pule, a me ko lakou noi ana, a e hoopono mai no lakou.
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,
36Ina e hana hewa lakou ia oe, (no kamea, aohe kanaka i hana he wa ole,) a huhu mai oe ia lakou, a haawi oe ia lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, a alakai pio ua poe la ia lakou i ka aina loihi, a i ka aina kokoke paha;
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:
37A e noonoo iho lakou ma ka aina a lakou e noho pio ai, a e huli lakou, a e pule aku ia oe ma ka ai na o ko lakou noho pio ana, me ka i ana'ku, Ua hewa makou, ua lawehala, a ua hana ino aku;
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:
38A huli lakou ia oe me ko lakou naau a pau, a me ko lakou uhane a pau, ma ka aina o ko lakou noho pio ana kahi i lawe pio ia'i lakou, a pule aku lakou me ka haliu mai o ke alo ma ko lakou aina ka mea au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou poe kupuna, a ma ke kulanakauhale au i wae mai ai, a me ka hale a'u i kukulu ai no kou inoa;
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:
39Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, mai kou wahi e noho ai, i ka lakou pule, a me ko lakou noi ana, a e hoopono mai no lakou, a e kala mai i kou poe kanaka i ka mea a lakou i hana hewa aku ai ia oe.
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.
40Ano, e ko'u Akua, e weheia kou mau maka, e haliu mai hoi kou mau pepeiao i ka pule ma keia wahi.
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.
41E ku oe, ano, e Iehova ke Akua, iloko o kou wahi e maha ai, o oe a me ka pahu o kou mana; o kou poe kahuna, e Iehova ke Akua, e hoaahuia lakou i ke ola, a o kou poe haipule, e olioli lakou i ka maikai.
42O Lord God, turn not away the face of thy anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant.
42E Iehova ke Akua, mai pale ae i ka maka o kau mea i poni ai; e hoomanao oe i ke aloha no Davida, no kau kauwa.
