< 2 Chronicles 7 >

1 Now when Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and Yahweh’s glory filled the house.
Tango Salomo asilisaki kosambela, moto ekitaki wuta na Likolo mpe ezikisaki mbeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka mosusu, mpe nkembo na Yawe etondisaki Tempelo.
2 The priests could not enter into Yahweh’s house, because Yahweh’s glory filled Yahweh’s house.
Banganga-Nzambe bakokaki te kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe, pamba te nkembo na Yawe etondisaki yango.
3 All the children of Israel looked on, when the fire came down, and Yahweh’s glory was on the house. They bowed themselves with their faces to the ground on the pavement, worshiped, and gave thanks to Yahweh, saying, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever!”
Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bamonaki moto kokita mpe nkembo na Yawe na likolo ya Tempelo, bafukamaki bilongi kino na mabele; bongo bagumbamelaki mpe basanzolaki Yawe na maloba oyo: « Azali malamu, bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko! »
4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before Yahweh.
Mokonzi mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele babonzaki bambeka liboso ya Yawe.
5 King 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.
Mokonzi Salomo abonzaki lokola mbeka bangombe nkoto tuku mibale na mibale mpe bameme nkoto nkama moko na tuku mibale. Ezalaki ndenge wana nde mokonzi mpe bato nyonso babulisaki Tempelo ya Nzambe.
6 The priests stood, according to their positions; the Levites also with instruments of music of Yahweh, which David the king had made to give thanks to Yahweh, when David praised by their ministry, saying “For his loving kindness endures forever.” The priests sounded trumpets before them; and all Israel stood.
Banganga-Nzambe batelemaki na bisika na bango ya mosala, ndenge moko na Balevi mpe bibetelo mindule ya Yawe oyo mokonzi Davidi asalaki mpo na kosanzola na yango Yawe na maloba oyo: « Bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko. » Ezalaki Davidi moto apesaki bango mokumba ya kobeta bibetelo mindule mpo na kokumisa Yawe. Banganga-Nzambe bazalaki ya kotalana na Balevi mpe bazalaki kobeta bakelelo; bongo bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki ya kotelema.
7 Moreover Solomon made the middle of the court that was before Yahweh’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.
Salomo abulisaki lopango ya kati oyo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe abonzaki wana bambeka ya kotumba mpe mafuta ya bambeka ya boyokani; pamba te etumbelo ya bronze oyo Salomo atongaki ekokaki te koyamba bambeka ya kotumba, makabo ya gato mpe mafuta.
8 So 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.
Boye, na tango wana, Salomo elongo na Isalaele mobimba basalaki feti oyo ewumelaki mikolo sambo; ezalaki lisanga monene ya bato oyo bayaki wuta na Amati kino na mayi oyo etiolaka na kati-kati ya bangomba ya Ejipito.
9 On the eighth day, they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
Na mokolo ya mwambe, basalaki mayangani monene, pamba te babulisaki etumbelo mikolo sambo mpe basalaki feti mikolo sambo.
10 On 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 Yahweh had shown to David, to Solomon, and to Israel his people.
Bongo na mokolo ya tuku mibale na misato ya sanza ya sambo, Salomo azongisaki bato na bandako na bango ya kapo, na esengo mpe na nsayi kati na mitema mpo na bolamu oyo Yawe asalelaki Davidi, Salomo mpe Isalaele, bato na Ye.
11 Thus Solomon finished Yahweh’s house and the king’s house; and he successfully completed all that came into Solomon’s heart to make in Yahweh’s house and in his own house.
Sima na Salomo kosilisa kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe kokokisa nyonso oyo azalaki na yango na makanisi ya kosala kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe kati na ndako na ye moko,
12 Then Yahweh 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.
Yawe abimelaki Salomo, na butu, mpe alobaki: — Nayoki losambo na yo mpe naponi esika oyo lokola Ndako ya bambeka mpo na Ngai.
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,
Soki nakangi likolo mpo ete mvula ebeta te to natindi mabanki mpo ete ebebisa mokili to natindi bokono mabe kati na bato,
14 if 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.
soki bato na Ngai, oyo babengami na Kombo na Ngai bamikitisi, basambeli, baluki elongi na Ngai, mpe bapesi mokongo na banzela na bango ya mabe, Ngai, nakoyoka bango wuta na Likolo, nakolimbisa masumu na bango mpe nakobikisa mokili na bango.
15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to prayer that is made in this place.
Kobanda sik’oyo, miso na Ngai ekofungwama, mpe matoyi na Ngai ekoyoka na bokebi mabondeli oyo ekosalema na esika oyo.
16 For 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.
Naponi mpe nabulisi Tempelo wana mpo ete Kombo na Ngai ezala kuna tango nyonso. Miso mpe motema na Ngai ekozala kuna na Tempelo yango mpo na libela.
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,
Mpo na yo, soki okotambola liboso na Ngai ndenge Davidi, tata na yo, atambolaki; soki okosala nyonso oyo natindaki yo mpe okobatela mibeko mpe malako na Ngai,
18 then 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.’
nakolendisa kiti na yo ya bokonzi kolanda boyokani oyo nasalaki elongo na Davidi, tata na yo, tango nalobaki: « Okotikalaka kozanga te mokitani mpo na kokamba Isalaele lokola mokonzi. »
19 But 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,
Kasi soki bopengwi mosika na Ngai, soki bosundoli mibeko mpe malako na Ngai, oyo natie liboso na bino; soki bokeyi kosalela banzambe mosusu mpe kofukamela yango,
20 then 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.
nakopikola bino na mabele na Ngai, mabele oyo napesaki bino; nakobwaka mosika ya miso na Ngai Tempelo oyo nabulisi mpo na Kombo na Ngai mpe nakokomisa yango eloko ya kotiola mpe ya soni kati na bikolo nyonso.
21 This house, which is so high, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this house?’
Atako Tempelo oyo ezali sik’oyo kitoko penza, kasi bato nyonso oyo bakoleka pembeni na yango bakokamwa mpe bakoloba: « Mpo na nini Yawe asali makambo ya boye na mokili oyo mpe na Tempelo oyo? »
22 They shall answer, ‘Because they abandoned Yahweh, 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.’”
Mpe bakoyanola: « Ezali mpo ete basundolaki Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, oyo abimisaki bango na Ejipito mpe bamipesaki na banzambe mosusu, bafukamelaki yango mpe basalelaki yango; yango wana Yawe ayeisi likolo na bango pasi oyo nyonso. »
