Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Now when Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the LORD’s glory filled the house.
1Pea ko eni ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi ʻe Solomone ʻae lotu, naʻe hoko hifo ʻae afi mei he langi, pea ne keina ʻo ʻosi ʻae feilaulau tutu pea mo e ngaahi feilaulau: pea naʻe fakafonu ʻae fale ʻe he nāunau ʻo Sihova.
2The priests could not enter into the LORD’s house, because the LORD’s glory filled the LORD’s house.
2Pea naʻe ʻikai faʻa hū ange ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ki he loto fale ʻo Sihova, koeʻuhi kuo fakafonu ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻaki ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova.
3All the children of Israel looked on, when the fire came down, and the LORD’s glory was on the house. They bowed themselves with their faces to the ground on the pavement, worshiped, and gave thanks to the LORD, saying, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever!”
3Pea ʻi he sio ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli ki heʻene ʻalu hifo ʻae afi, pea ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he fale, naʻa nau punou hifo mo honau mata ki he kelekele ki he funga faliki maka, mo nau hū, mo fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻo pehē , He ʻoku angalelei ia: pea ʻoku taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
4Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the LORD.
4¶ Pea hili ia naʻe ʻatu ai ʻe he tuʻi pea mo e kakai fulipē ʻae ngaahi feilaulau ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
5King Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand head of cattle and a hundred twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated God’s house.
5Pea naʻe ʻatu ʻe Solomone ha feilaulau, ko e fanga pulu ʻe ua mano mo e ua afe, mo e fanga sipi ʻe taha kilu mo e ua mano: pea pehē, naʻe fakatapui ʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻe he tuʻi pea mo e kakai kotoa pē.
6The priests stood, according to their positions; the Levites also with instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had made to give thanks to the LORD, when David praised by their ministry, saying “For his loving kindness endures forever.” The priests sounded trumpets before them; and all Israel stood.
6Pea naʻe fai ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ki heʻenau ngaahi ngāue: ko e kau Livai foki mo e ngaahi meʻa fasi hiva kia Sihova, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Tevita ke hiva ʻaki kia Sihova, koeʻuhi ko e taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa, ʻi heʻene fai fakafetaʻi ʻe Tevita ʻi heʻenau ngāue: pea naʻe fakaongo ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea ʻi honau ʻao, pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa ki ʻolunga.
7Moreover Solomon made the middle of the court that was before the LORD’s house holy; for there he offered the burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the fat.
7Pea naʻe fakatapui foki ʻe Solomone ʻae potu ki loto ʻoe lotoʻā ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova: he naʻa ne ʻatu ʻi he potu ko ia ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngako ʻoe ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino, he koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai faʻa hao ʻi he feilaulauʻanga palasa ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone, ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau meʻakai, pea mo e ngako.
8So Solomon held the feast at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly, from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of Egypt.
8¶ Pea ʻi he kuonga foki ko ia naʻe fai ʻae kātoanga ʻe Solomone ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, pea naʻe fakataha ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa mo ia, ko e fuʻu fakataha lahi, mei he hūʻanga ki Hamati ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite.
9On the eighth day, they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
9Pea ʻi hono valu ʻoe ʻaho naʻa nau fai ʻae fakataha molumalu: he naʻa nau fai ʻae fakatapui ʻoe feilaulauʻanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, pea mo e kātoanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.
10On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that the LORD had shown to David, to Solomon, and to Israel his people.
10Pea ʻi hono uofulu ma tolu ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina naʻa ne fekau ke ʻalu ʻae kakai ki honau ngaahi fale, ʻi he fiefia mo e nekeneka ʻi loto koeʻuhi ko e angalelei naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova kia Tevita, pea kia Solomone, pea ki hono kakai ʻIsileli.
11Thus Solomon finished the LORD’s house and the king’s house; and he successfully completed all that came into Solomon’s heart to make in the LORD’s house and in his own house.
11Naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻosi ʻe Solomone ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi: pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fakakaukau ki ai ʻa Solomone ʻi hono loto ke fai ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi hono fale ʻoʻona, naʻa ne fai monitonu pe ia.
12Then the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him, “I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for myself for a house of sacrifice.
12¶ Pea naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kia Solomone ʻi he pō, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo u fanongo ki hoʻo lotu, pea kuo u fili ʻae potu ni moʻoku ko e fale ke fai ai ʻae feilaulau.
13“If I shut up the sky so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people,
13Kapau te u tāpuni ʻae langi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha ʻuha ʻe tō, pea kapau te u fekauʻi ʻae fanga heʻe maumau ke keina ʻae fonua, pea kapau te u tuku ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha ki he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai:
14if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
14Pea kapau ʻe fakavaivai mai ʻa hoku kakai ʻoku ui ʻaki ʻa hoku huafa, pea nau lotu, mo nau kumi ki hoku fofonga, pea nau tafoki mei honau ngaahi hala kovi: pehē, te u toki fanongo mei he langi, pea te u fakamolemole ʻenau angahala, pea te u fakamoʻui ʻa honau fonua.
15Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to prayer that is made in this place.
15Ko eni, ʻe ʻā ʻa hoku mata, pea ʻe tokanga ʻa hoku telinga ki he lotu ʻe fai ʻi he potu ni.
16For now I have chosen and made this house holy, that my name may be there forever; and my eyes and my heart will be there perpetually.
16He ko eni, kuo u fili mo fakatapui ʻae fale ni, koeʻuhi ke ʻi ai ʻa hoku hingoa ʻo taʻengata: pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻa hoku mata mo hoku loto maʻuaipē.
17“As for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances,
17Pea koeʻuhi ko koe, kapau te ke ʻalu ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu ʻa Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, pea ke fai ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe, pea ke tokanga ki heʻeku ngaahi fono mo ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau:
18then I will establish the throne of your kingdom, according as I covenanted with David your father, saying, ‘There shall not fail you a man to be ruler in Israel.’
18Pehē, te u toki fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo ho puleʻanga, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fuakava naʻe fai mo Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te ke masiva ʻi ha tangata ke pule ʻi ʻIsileli.
19But if you turn away and forsake my statutes and my commandments which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them,
19Pea kapau te mou tafoki atu, mo liʻaki ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fono mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻaia kuo u tuku ʻi homou ʻao, pea mou ʻalu mo tauhi ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, mo lotu ki ai:
20then I will pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, I will cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
20Pehē, te u toki taʻaki hake ʻakinautolu mei honau aka ʻo lī ʻakinautolu mei hoku fonua, ʻaia kuo u foaki kiate kinautolu: pea ko e fale ni, ʻaia kuo u fakatapui ki hoku huafa, te u liʻaki ia mei hoku ʻao, pea te u ngaohi ia ko e lea fakatātā mo e manukiʻanga ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
21This house, which is so high, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this land and to this house?’
21Pea ko e fale ni, ʻoku māʻolunga ni, ʻe hoko ko e ofoʻanga kiate ia kotoa pē ʻe ʻalu ofi ki ai: ko ia te ne pehē ai, ‘Ko e hā kuo fai pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ni, pea ki he fale ni?’
22They shall answer, ‘Because they abandoned the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and took other gods, worshiped them, and served them. Therefore he has brought all this evil on them.’”
22Pea ʻe tali ʻo pehēange, ‘Koeʻuhi naʻa nau siʻaki ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mo nau puke ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, mo lotu ki ai, mo tauhi kiate kinautolu: ko ia ia kuo ne ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae kovi ni kotoa pē kiate kinautolu.’”
