< 2 Chronicles 6 >

1 Then Solomon said, “The LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Eka Solomon nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osewacho ni enodag ei bor polo motimo mudho.
2 But I have built you a house and home, a place for you to dwell in forever.”
Asegeroni hekalu marahuma, kama inidagie nyaka chiengʼ.”
3 The king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel stood.
Kane oganda jo-Israel duto ochungʼ kanyo, ruoth nolokore mogwedhogi.
4 He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and has with his hands fulfilled it, saying,
Eka nowacho niya, “Pak obed ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, mosetimo gi lwete gima ne osingo gi dhoge ni Daudi wuonwa. Nikech nowacho niya,
5 ‘Since the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in, that my name might be there, and I chose no man to be prince over my people Israel;
‘Chakre ndalo mane agolo joga koa Misri pok ayiero dala maduongʼ e dhoot moro amora mar Israel mondo oger hekalu kanyo ni Nyinga, to aseyiero Daudi mondo otel ni joga Israel.
6 but now I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.’
To koro aseyiero Jerusalem mondo obed kama Nyinga betie kendo aseyiero Daudi mondo otel ni joga Israel.’
7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
“Daudi wuora noketo e chunye mondo oger hekalu moluongo nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel.
8 But the LORD said to David my father, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart;
To Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Daudi wuora niya, ‘Nitimo maber mondo ibed gi wach gero hekalu ni nyinga e chunyi.
9 nevertheless you shall not build the house, but your son who will come out of your body, he shall build the house for my name.’
Kata kamano in ok niger hekalu, to wuodi, ma en ringri gi rembi iwuon; en ema noger hekalu ni Nyinga.’
10 “The LORD has performed his word that he spoke; for I have risen up in the place of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
“Jehova Nyasaye oserito singruok mane otimo. Asekawo loch wuora Daudi kendo asebet e kom loch mar Israel mana kaka Nyasaye nosingo kendo asegero hekalu ni Nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel.
11 There I have set the ark, in which is the LORD’s covenant, which he made with the children of Israel.”
Aseketo Sandug Muma ma moketie singruok mane Jehova Nyasaye otimo e kinde gi jo-Israel.”
12 He stood before the LORD’s altar in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands
Eka Solomon nochungʼ e nyim kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye e nyim oganda duto mar jo-Israel kendo norieyo bedene kochomo malo.
13 (for Solomon had made a bronze platform, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high, and had set it in the middle of the court; and he stood on it, and knelt down on his knees before all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven).
Noseloso raidhi mar mula ma borne gi lachne romo fut aboro to borne kadhi malo en fut abich mokete e dier laru ma oko. Ne ochungʼ e raidhino mi ogoyo chonge piny e nyim oganda duto mar jo-Israel kendo norieyo bedene kochomo polo.
14 Then he said, “LORD, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven or on earth—you who keep covenant and loving kindness with your servants who walk before you with all their heart;
Kowacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, onge Nyasaye moro e polo kata e piny machal kodi. In e Nyasaye marito singruok mar herane ni jotichne maluwo yoreni gi chunygi duto.
15 who have kept with your servant David my father that which you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is today.
Iserito singruokni mane itimo gi jatichni Daudi wuora, ne isingori gi dhogi kendo isechopo singruokno gi lweti, mana kaka en kawuononi.
16 “Now therefore, LORD, the God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that which you have promised him, saying, ‘There shall not fail you a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your children take heed to their way, to walk in my law as you have walked before me.’
“To koro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel rit singruok mane itimo gi jatichni Daudi wuora kiwachone niya, ‘Ok inibed maonge ngʼama bet e nyima e kom loch Israel ka nyikwayi onono kaka giwuotho e nyima kaka chikna dwaro mana kaka isetimo.’
17 Now therefore, LORD, the God of Israel, let your word be verified, which you spoke to your servant David.
To koro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel yie mondo wach mane isingo ni jatichni Daudi wuora otimre mana kaka ne isingo.
18 “But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain you; how much less this house which I have built!
“To bende Nyasaye nyalo dak e piny kod ji? Kata polo malo kata polo mabor ok nyal romi, to koro hekalu mageroni to diromi nade!
19 Yet have respect for the prayer of your servant and to his supplication, LORD my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which your servant prays before you;
Kata kamano chik iti ni lamo jatichni gi kwayone mar ngʼwono yaye Jehova Nyasaye Nyasacha. Winji ywak gi lemo ma jatichni lamo e nyimi.
20 that your eyes may be open toward this house day and night, even toward the place where you have said that you would put your name, to listen to the prayer which your servant will pray toward this place.
Mad wangʼi rang hekaluni odiechiengʼ kod otieno, kama niwacho ni Nyingi nobedie. Yie iwinji lemo ma jatichni lamo kochomo odni.
21 Listen to the petitions of your servant and of your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Yes, hear from your dwelling place, even from heaven; and when you hear, forgive.
Winji lamo mar jatichni kaachiel gi jogi Israel ka gilamo ka gichomo odni. Winji gi e polo kar dakni kendo kiwinjo to iwenwa richowa.
22 “If a man sins against his neighbor, and an oath is laid on him to cause him to swear, and he comes and swears before your altar in this house,
“Ka ngʼato oketho ni wadgi kendo dwarore ni mondo okwongʼre kendo obiro mokwongʼore e nyim kendo mar misango manie hekaluni,
23 then hear from heaven, act, and judge your servants, bringing retribution to the wicked, to bring his way on his own head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
to iwinji gi e polo kendo itim kaka owinjore. Ngʼad bura e kind jotichni kikumo joketho kendo iket richogi e wigi bende joma onge ketho iket kare kaluwore gi timgi makare.
24 “If your people Israel are struck down before the enemy because they have sinned against you, and they turn again and confess your name, and pray and make supplication before you in this house,
“Ka jogi Israel olo e lweny gi jowasikgi nikech gisekethoni to bangʼe gilokore mi gipako nyingi, ka gilamo kendo gikwayo e hekaluni,
25 then hear from heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave to them and to their fathers.
to iwinjgi gi e polo kendo iwe richo jogi Israel kendo iduog-gi e piny mane imiyogi kod kweregi.
26 “When the sky is shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against you, if they pray toward this place and confess your name, and turn from their sin when you afflict them,
“Ka polo olor kendo koth onge nikech jogi osekethoni to ka gilemo kaeni ka gipako nyingi kendo ka gilokore giweyo richogi nikech isekelonegi chandruok,
27 then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk, and send rain on your land, which you have given to your people for an inheritance.
to yie mondo iwinjgi gie polo kendo iwene jotichni ma jo-Israel richogi. Puonjgi yo makare mar dak kendo iornegi koth e piny mane imiyo jogi kaka girkeni margi.
28 “If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight or mildew, locust or caterpillar; if their enemies besiege them in the land of their cities; whatever plague or whatever sickness there is—
“Ka kech kata dera omako piny kata ka abach omako cham kata tuo ewi dongo, kata ka bonyo kata kungu, kata ka jowasigu olworo miechgi madongo, kata ka midekre kata tuo omakogi,
29 whatever prayer and supplication is made by any man, or by all your people Israel, who will each know his own plague and his own sorrow, and shall spread out his hands toward this house,
to ka ngʼato kuom jogi ma jo-Israel olemo kata okwayi, ka gingʼeyo gima chando chunygi kod lit ka girieyo bedegi kochomo hekaluni,
30 then hear from heaven your dwelling place and forgive, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know (for you, even you only, know the hearts of the children of men),
to yie iwinji gie polo kama idakie. Wenegi richogi kendo tim ne ngʼato ka ngʼato gima owinjore gi gik motimo nikech ingʼeyo chunygi (nikech in kendi ema ingʼeyo chuny dhano),
31 that they may fear you, to walk in your ways as long as they live in the land which you gave to our fathers.
mondo omi gilwori kendo giwuoth e yoreni ndalogi duto ma gin-go e piny mane imiyo kwerewa.
32 “Moreover, concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, when he comes from a far country for your great name’s sake and your mighty hand and your outstretched arm, when they come and pray toward this house,
“To kuom jadak ma ok achiel kuom jogi Israel moa e piny mabor nikech nyingi maduongʼ kendo lweti maratego kod badi marabora moriere, ka gibiro ma gilemo ka gichomo hekaluni,
33 then hear from heaven, even from your dwelling place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to you for; that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you, as do your people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by your name.
to yie mondo iwinji gie polo kama idakie kendo tim gimoro amora ma jadakno okwayi mondo ogendini duto mag piny ongʼe nyingi kendo oluori mana kaka jogi Israel kendo mondo gingʼe ni ot ma asegeroni luongo nyingi.
34 “If your people go out to battle against their enemies, by whatever way you send them, and they pray to you toward this city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your name;
“Ka jogi odhi kedo gi jowasikgi kamoro amora ma ibiro orogie ka gilami kagichomo dalani miseyiero kendo hekalu masegero maluongo nyingi,
35 then hear from heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
to yie iwinji gie polo lamogi kod kwayogi kendo konygi.
36 “If they sin against you (for there is no man who doesn’t sin), and you are angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to a land far off or near;
“To ka giketho e nyimi, nimar onge ngʼato kata achiel ma ok jaketho mi ikecho kodgi kendo ichiwogi e lwet wasigu mi giterogi e twech e piny mabor kata machiegni,
37 yet if they come to their senses in the land where they are carried captive, and turn again, and make supplication to you in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done perversely, and have dealt wickedly;’
kendo ka chunygi olokore e piny mane otergi e twech kendo giweyo richogi kendo gikwayi e piny wasikgi mane otweyogi kagiwacho niya, ‘Wasetimo richo kendo waseketho bende wasetimo mamono;’
38 if they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have been taken captive, and pray toward their land which you gave to their fathers, and the city which you have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for your name;
to ka gidwogo iri gi chunygi duto kod ngimagi duto e piny mane otergi e twech, kendo gilemo ka girango pinygi mane imiyo kweregi, kod dala maduongʼ miseyiero kod hekalu ma asegero ni nyingi,
39 then hear from heaven, even from your dwelling place, their prayer and their petitions, and maintain their cause, and forgive your people who have sinned against you.
to yie iwinji lemogi gi kwayogi gie polo kar dakni kendo ikonygi. Kendo iwe ni jogi mosetimo richo e nyimi.
40 “Now, my God, let, I beg you, your eyes be open, and let your ears be attentive to the prayer that is made in this place.
“Koro Nyasacha, yie mondo wengegi oyawre kendo itgi mondo owinj maber lemo ma wachiwo kaeni.
41 “Now therefore arise, LORD God, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength. Let your priests, LORD God, be clothed with salvation [yeshu`ah], and let your holy ones rejoice in goodness.
“Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, koro chungʼ malo kendo idonj e kar yweyo,
42 “LORD God, don’t turn away the face of your anointed. Remember your loving kindnesses to David your servant.”
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kik ikwed ngʼatno misewiro.
