I Kings 8

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.
Tada Salomon sazva u Jeruzalem sve starješine Izraelove, sve knezove plemenske i glavare obitelji da se prenese Kovčeg saveza Jahvina iz grada, Davidova grada, to jest sa Siona.
And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
Svi se ljudi Izraelovi sabraše pred kraljem Salomonom na blagdan u mjesecu Etanimu (to je sedmi mjesec).
And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
I kad su došle Izraelove starješine, svećenici ponesoše Kovčeg
And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring up.
i Šator sastanka sa svim posvećenim priborom što bješe u Šatoru. Prenosili su ih svećenici i leviti.
And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
Kralj Salomon i sva zajednica Izraelova koja se sabrala oko njega žrtvovali su pred Kovčegom toliko ovaca i goveda da se ne mogahu prebrojiti ni procijeniti.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubims.
Svećenici donesoše Kovčeg saveza Jahvina na njegovo mjesto, u Debir Doma, to jest u Svetinju nad svetinjama, pod krila kerubina.
For the cherubims spread forth their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
Kerubini su, naime, imali raširena krila nad mjestom gdje stajaše Kovčeg i zaklanjahu odozgo Kovčeg i njegove motke.
And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy place before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day.
[8a] Motke su bile tako dugačke da su im se krajevi vidjeli iz Svetišta nasuprot Debiru, ali se nisu vidjele izvana.
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
U Kovčegu nije bilo ništa, osim dviju kamenih ploča koje metnu Mojsije na Horebu, gdje Jahve sklopi Savez s Izraelcima pošto iziđoše iz Egipta. [8b] Ondje su ostale do danas.
And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,
A kad su svećenici izašli iz Svetišta, oblak ispuni Dom Jahvin,
So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.
i svećenici ne mogoše od oblaka nastaviti službe: slava Jahvina ispuni Dom Božji!
Then spake Solomon, The LORD said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Tada reče Salomon: "Jahve odluči prebivati u tmastu oblaku,
I have surely built thee an house to dwell in, a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.
a ja ti sagradih uzvišen Dom da u njemu prebivaš zauvijek."
And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: (and all the congregation of Israel stood;)
I, okrenuvši se, kralj blagoslovi sav izraelski zbor, a sav je izraelski zbor stajao.
And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which spake with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,
Reče on: "Neka je blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, koji je svojom rukom ispunio obećanje što ga na svoja usta dade ocu mome Davidu, rekavši:
Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build an house, that my name might be therein; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.
'Od dana kad izvedoh svoj narod iz zemlje egipatske, nisam izabrao grada ni iz kojega Izraelova plemena da se u njemu sagradi Dom gdje bi prebivalo moje Ime, nego sam izabrao Davida da on zapovijeda mojim narodom Izraelom.'
And it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
Otac mi David naumi podići Dom Imenu Jahve, Boga Izraelova,
And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to build an house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thine heart.
ali mu Jahve reče: 'Naumio si podići Dom mojem Imenu, i dobro učini,
Nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name.
ali nećeš ti podići toga Doma, nego sin tvoj koji izađe iz tvoga krila, on će podići Dom mojem Imenu.'
And the LORD hath performed his word that he spake, and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
Jahve ispuni obećanje svoje: naslijedio sam svoga oca Davida i sjeo na prijestolje Izraelovo, kako obeća Jahve, i podigao Dom Imenu Jahve, Boga Izraelova,
And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.
i odredio sam da ondje bude mjesto Kovčegu u kojem je Savez što ga Jahve sklopi s našim ocima kad ih je izveo iz zemlje egipatske."
And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven:
Tada Salomon stupi, u nazočnosti svega zbora Izraelova, pred žrtvenik Jahvin, raširi ruke prema nebu
And he said, LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath, who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee with all their heart:
i reče: "Jahve, Bože Izraelov! Nijedan ti bog nije sličan ni na nebesima ni dolje na zemlji, tebi koji držiš Savez i ljubav svojim slugama što kroče pred tobom sa svim svojim srcem.
Who hast kept with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him: thou spakest also with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.
Sluzi svome Davidu, mome ocu, ti si ispunio što si mu obećao. Što si obećao na svoja usta, ispunio si svojom rukom upravo danas.
Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me.
Sada, Jahve, Bože Izraelov, ispuni svome sluzi, ocu mome Davidu, što si obećao kad si rekao: 'Neće ti preda mnom nestati nasljednika koji bi sjedio na izraelskom prijestolju, samo ako tvoji sinovi budu čuvali svoje putove hodeći po mojem zakonu kako si ti hodio preda mnom.'
And now, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be verified, which thou spakest unto thy servant David my father.
Sada, dakle, Jahve, Bože Izraelov, neka se ispuni tvoje obećanje koje si dao svome sluzi Davidu, mome ocu!
But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
Ali zar će Bog doista boraviti s ljudima na zemlji? TÓa nebesa ni nebesa nad nebesima ne mogu ga obuhvatiti, a kamoli ovaj Dom što sam ga sagradio!
Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee to day:
Pomno počuj molitvu i vapaj svoga sluge, Jahve, Bože moj, te usliši vapaj i molitvu što je tvoj sluga tebi upućuje!
That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place.
Neka tvoje oči obdan i obnoć budu otvorene nad ovim Domom, nad ovim mjestom za koje reče: 'Tu će biti moje Ime.' Usliši molitvu koju će sluga tvoj izmoliti na ovome mjestu.
And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place: and when thou hearest, forgive.
I usliši molitvu sluge svoga i naroda svojega izraelskog koju bude upravljao prema ovome mjestu. Usliši s mjesta gdje prebivaš, s nebesa; usliši i oprosti.
If any man trespass against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house:
Ako tko zgriješi protiv bližnjega i naredi mu se da se zakune, a zakletva dođe pred tvoj žrtvenik u ovom Domu,
Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
tada je ti čuj u nebu i postupaj i sudi svojim slugama, osudi krivca okrećući njegova djela na njegovu glavu, a nevina oslobodi postupajući s njime po nevinosti njegovoj.
When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house:
Ako narod tvoj bude potučen od neprijatelja jer se ogriješio o tebe, ali se ipak k tebi obrati i proslavi Ime tvoje i u ovom se Domu pomoli,
Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest unto their fathers.
onda ti čuj to s neba, oprosti grijehe svome narodu izraelskom i dovedi ga natrag u zemlju koju si dao njihovim očevima.
When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou afflictest them:
Kad se zatvori nebo i ne padne kiša jer su se ogriješili o tebe, pa ti se pomole na ovome mjestu i proslave Ime tvoje i obrate se od svojega grijeha kad ih ti poniziš,
Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, that thou teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance.
tada ti čuj na nebu i oprosti grijeh svojim slugama i svojem izraelskom narodu, pokazujući im valjan put kojim će ići, i pusti kišu na zemlju koju si svojem narodu dao u baštinu.
If there be in the land famine, if there be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, or if there be caterpiller; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there be;
Kad u zemlji zavlada glad, kuga, snijet i rđa i kad navale skakavci, gusjenice, kad neprijatelj ovoga naroda pritisne koja od njegovih vrata, ili kad bude kakva druga nevolja ili boleština,
What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
ako koji čovjek, ili sav tvoj narod, Izrael, osjeti tjeskobu svoga srca pa upravi molitvu ili prošnju te raširi ruke prema ovom Hramu,
Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men;)
ti čuj s neba, s mjesta gdje prebivaš, i oprosti i postupi; vrati svakome čovjeku prema putu njegovu, jer ti poznaješ srce njegovo - ti jedini poznaješ srce sviju -
That they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.
da te se uvijek boje sve dane dokle žive na zemlji što je ti dade našim očevima.
Moreover concerning a stranger, that is not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy name's sake;
Pa i tuđinca, koji nije od tvojega naroda izraelskog, nego je stigao iz daleke zemlje radi Imena tvoga
(For they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy stretched out arm;) when he shall come and pray toward this house;
jer je čuo za veliko Ime tvoje, za tvoju snažnu ruku i za tvoju mišicu podignutu - ako dođe i pomoli se u ovom Hramu,
Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by thy name.
usliši ga s neba gdje prebivaš, usliši sve vapaje njegove da bi upoznali svi zemaljski narodi Ime tvoje i bojali se tebe kao narod tvoj Izrael i da znaju da je tvoje Ime zazvano nad ovaj Dom koji sam sagradio.
If thy people go out to battle against their enemy, whithersoever thou shalt send them, and shall pray unto the LORD toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house that I have built for thy name:
Ako narod tvoj krene na neprijatelja putem kojim ga ti uputiš i pomoli se Jahvi, okrenut k ovom gradu što si ga izabrao i prema Domu koji sam podigao tvojem Imenu,
Then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
usliši mu s neba molitvu i prošnju i učini mu pravdu.
If they sin against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;
Kad ti sagriješe, jer nema čovjeka koji ne griješi, a ti ih, rasrdiv se na njih, predaš neprijateljima da ih zarobe i odvedu kao roblje u daleku ili blizu zemlju,
Yet if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they were carried captives, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness;
pa ako se pokaju srcem u zemlji u koju budu dovedeni te se obrate i počnu te moliti za milost u zemlji svojih osvajača govoreći: 'Zgriješili smo, bili smo zli i naopaki',
And so return unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:
i tako se obrate k tebi svim srcem i svom dušom u zemlji svoga ropstva u koju budu dovedeni kao roblje, i pomole se okrenuti k zemlji što je ti dade njihovim očevima, i prema gradu koji si izabrao, i prema Domu što sam ga podigao tvom Imenu,
Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place, and maintain their cause,
usliši s neba, gdje prebivaš, njihovu molbu i njihove prošnje,
And forgive thy people that have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against thee, and give them compassion before them who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them:
učini im pravdu i oprosti svome narodu što je zgriješio protiv tebe, oprosti sve uvrede koje ti je nanio, učini da mu se smiluju osvajači i da budu milostivi prema njemu,
For they be thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron:
jer su oni tvoj narod i baština tvoja, njih si izveo iz Egipta, iz užarenog kotla.
That thine eyes may be open unto the supplication of thy servant, and unto the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken unto them in all that they call for unto thee.
Neka oči tvoje budu otvorene na prošnju tvoga sluge i na prošnju naroda tvoga Izraela da čuješ sve njihove molbe što će ih tebi uputiti.
For thou didst separate them from among all the people of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spakest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord GOD.
Jer ti si ih odvojio od svih naroda na zemlji sebi za baštinu, kako si objavio po svome sluzi Mojsiju, kada si izveo oce naše iz Egipta, o Gospode, Jahve!"
And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven.
Pošto je Salomon dovršio svu ovu molitvu i prošnju pred Jahvom, diže se s mjesta gdje je klečao, raširenih ruku prema nebu, pred žrtvenikom Jahvinim,
And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
pa istupi te blagoslovi sav zbor Izraelov govoreći jakim glasom:
Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.
"Blagoslovljen Jahve, koji je narodu svome Izraelu dao mir u svemu kako je obećao; nije propalo nijedno od njegovih lijepih obećanja koja je dao sluzi svome Mojsiju.
The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:
Neka Jahve, Bog naš, bude s nama kao što je bio s ocima našim i neka nas ne napusti i ne odbaci.
That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
Neka prikloni naša srca k sebi da bismo hodili svim njegovim putovima i držali njegove zapovijedi, zakone i uredbe koje je dao ocima našim.
And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh unto the LORD our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:
Bile ove moje riječi, koje sam smjerno iznio pred Jahvu, danju i noću nazočne pred Jahvom, Bogom našim, eda bi dan za danom činio pravdu sluzi svomu i pravicu narodu svome Izraelu,
That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and that there is none else.
ne bi li tako svi narodi zemlje spoznali da je Jahve jedini Bog i da nema drugoga.
Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
A vaše srce neka bude potpuno odano Jahvi, Bogu našemu, držeći se njegovih zakona i obdržavajući njegove zapovijedi kao danas!"
And the king, and all Israel with him, offered sacrifice before the LORD.
Kralj i sav Izrael s njim prinesu žrtvu Jahvi.
And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered unto the LORD, two and twenty thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD.
Kao žrtvu pričesnicu, koju je prikazao Jahvi, Salomon prinese dvadeset i dvije tisuće volova i stotinu i dvadeset tisuća ovaca; time kralj i svi Izraelci posvete Dom Jahvin.
The same day did the king hallow the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brasen altar that was before the LORD was too little to receive the burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.
Toga dana posveti kralj središte predvorja, koje je ispred Doma Jahvina, jer ondje je prinio paljenice, prinosnice i pretiline pričesnica, jer je tučani žrtvenik pred Jahvom bio premalen da primi paljenice, prinosnice, pretiline pričesnica.
And at that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.
Tu je svečanost u ono vrijeme Salomon slavio sedam dana, sa svim Izraelcima, zborom velikim od Ulaza u Hamat do Potoka Egipatskog, pred Jahvom, Bogom našim.
On the eighth day he sent the people away: and they blessed the king, and went unto their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
Zatim je osmoga dana otpustio ljude; oni su blagosivljali kralja i odlazili svojim kućama, veseli i zadovoljna srca zbog svega dobra što ga je Jahve učinio svome sluzi Davidu i narodu svome Izraelu.
