2 Chronicles 7
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt-offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.
1所罗门 祈祷已毕,就有火从天上降下来,烧尽燔祭和别的祭。耶和华的荣光充满了殿;
2And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD filled the LORD'S house.
2因耶和华的荣光充满了耶和华殿,所以祭司不能进殿。
3And all the children of Israel looked on, when the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD was upon the house; and they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and prostrated themselves, and gave thanks unto the LORD; 'for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.'
3那火降下、耶和华的荣光在殿上的时候, 以色列 众人看见,就在铺石地俯伏叩拜,称谢耶和华 说 : 耶和华本为善, 他的慈爱永远长存!
4And the king and all the people offered sacrifice before the LORD.
4王和众民在耶和华面前献祭。
5And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
5所罗门 王用牛二万二千,羊十二万献祭。这样,王和众民为 神的殿行奉献之礼。
6And the priests stood, according to their offices; the Levites also with instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had made, to give thanks unto the LORD, for His mercy endureth for ever, with the praises of David by their hand; and the priests sounded trumpets over against them; and all Israel stood.
6祭司侍立,各供其职; 利未 人也拿着耶和华的乐器,就是 大卫 王造出来、借 利未 人颂赞耶和华的。(他的慈爱永远长存!)祭司在众人面前吹号, 以色列 人都站立。
7Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD; for there he offered the burnt-offerings, and the fat of the peace-offerings; because the brazen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt-offering, and the meal-offering, and the fat.
7所罗门 因他所造的铜坛容不下燔祭、素祭,和脂油,便将耶和华殿前院子当中分别为圣,在那里献燔祭和平安祭牲的脂油。
8So Solomon held the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of Egypt.
8那时 所罗门 和 以色列 众人,就是从 哈马口 直到 埃及 小河,所有的 以色列 人都聚集成为大会,守节七日。
9And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
9第八日设立严肃会,行奉献坛的礼七日,守节七日。
10And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away unto their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that the LORD had shown unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel His people.
10七月二十三日,王遣散众民;他们因见耶和华向 大卫 和 所罗门 与他民 以色列 所施的恩惠,就都心中喜乐,各归各家去了。
11Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.
11所罗门 造成了耶和华殿和王宫;在耶和华殿和王宫凡他心中所要做的,都顺顺利利地做成了。
12And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him: 'I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to Myself for a house of sacrifice.
12夜间耶和华向 所罗门 显现,对他说:「我已听了你的祷告,也选择这地方作为祭祀我的殿宇。
13If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people;
13我若使天闭塞不下雨,或使蝗虫吃这地的出产,或使瘟疫流行在我民中,
14if My people, upon whom My name is called, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their evil ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
14这称为我名下的子民,若是自卑、祷告,寻求我的面,转离他们的恶行,我必从天上垂听,赦免他们的罪,医治他们的地。
15Now Mine eyes shall be open, and Mine ears attent, unto the prayer that is made in this place.
15我必睁眼看、侧耳听在此处所献的祷告。
16For now have I chosen and hallowed this house, that My name may be there for ever; and Mine eyes and My heart shall be there perpetually.
16现在我已选择这殿,分别为圣,使我的名永在其中,我的眼、我的心也必常在那里。
17And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before Me as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep My statutes and Mine ordinances;
17你若在我面前效法你父 大卫 所行的,遵行我一切所吩咐你的,谨守我的律例典章,
18then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I covenanted with David thy father, saying: There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.
18我就必坚固你的国位,正如我与你父 大卫 所立的约,说:『你 的子孙 必不断人作 以色列 的王。』
19But if ye turn away, and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
19「倘若你们转去丢弃我指示你们的律例诫命,去事奉敬拜别神,
20then will I pluck them up by the roots out of My land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for My name, will I cast out of My sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
20我就必将 以色列 人从我赐给他们的地上拔出根来,并且我为己名所分别为圣的殿也必舍弃不顾,使他在万民中作笑谈,被讥诮。
21And this house, which is so high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall say: Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and to this house?
21这殿虽然甚高,将来经过的人必惊讶说:『耶和华为何向这地和这殿如此行呢?』
22And they shall answer: Because they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them; therefore hath He brought all this evil upon them.'
22人必回答说:『是因此地的人离弃耶和华—他们列祖的 神,就是领他们出 埃及 地的 神,去亲近别神,敬拜事奉他,所以耶和华使这一切灾祸临到他们。』」
