1 M arkaasaa Boqor Sulaymaan wuxuu Yeruusaalem isugu soo shiriyey odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil, iyo qabiilooyinka madaxdoodii oo dhan, oo ahaa amiirradii jilibyadii reer binu Israa'iil inay sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga ka soo qaadaan magaaladii Daa'uud oo Siyoon ahayd.

Now Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the City of David, which is Zion.

2 O o raggii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay u soo shireen Boqor Sulaymaan wakhtigii iidda ah bisha toddobaad ee Eetaaniim la yidhaahdo.

Therefore all the men of Israel assembled with King Solomon at the feast in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

3 O o odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu way yimaadeen, markaasay wadaaddadii sanduuqii soo qaadeen.

So all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.

4 O o wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi waxay soo qaadeen sanduuqii Rabbiga, iyo teendhadii shirka, iyo kulli weelashii quduuska ahaa oo teendhada ku jiray oo dhan.

Then they brought up the ark of the Lord, the tabernacle of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tabernacle. The priests and the Levites brought them up.

5 O o Boqor Sulaymaan iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo isaga u soo ururay oo dhammu waxay wada joogeen sanduuqii hortiisa, iyagoo ku allabaryaya ido iyo dibi aan la sheegi karin ama aan farahooda la tirin karin.

Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.

6 O o wadaaddadiina sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga ayay meeshiisii keeneen, oo waxay soo geliyeen guriga qolkiisii quduuska ahaa oo ahaa meeshii ugu wada quduusnayd, taasoo ah keruubiimta baalashooda hoostooda.

Then the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the Most Holy Place, under the wings of the cherubim.

7 W aayo, keruubiimtu baalashoodii way ku kor fidiyeen meeshii sanduuqa, oo ku qariyeen sanduuqii iyo ulihiisiiba.

For the cherubim spread their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles.

8 O o uluhuna aad bay u dhaadheeraayeen, sidaas daraaddeed dabadooda waxaa laga arkay meesha quduuska ah oo ka horraysa meesha ugu wada quduusan, laakiinse dibadda kama ay muuqan; oo halkaasay yaallaan ilaa maantadan.

The poles extended so that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And they are there to this day.

9 O o sanduuqiina waxba kuma jirin labadii loox ee dhagaxa ahayd oo Muuse isagoo Xoreeb jooga ku riday, markii Rabbigu axdiga la dhigtay reer binu Israa'iil ee ay dalkii Masar ka soo baxeen mooyaane.

Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets 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.

10 O o kolkii wadaaddadii ka soo baxeen meeshii quduuska ahayd ayaa daruurtii ka buuxsantay gurigii Rabbiga,

And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the Lord,

11 o o sidaas daraaddeed wadaaddadii way taagnaan kari waayeen inay adeegaan daruurtii aawadeed; waayo, Rabbiga ammaantiisii ayaa ka buuxsantay gurigii Rabbiga.

so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord.

12 M arkaasaa Sulaymaan hadlay oo yidhi, Rabbiyow, waxaad sheegtay inaad gudcurka qarada weyn dhex degganaanayso.

Then Solomon spoke: “The Lord said He would dwell in the dark cloud.

13 H ubaal waxaan kuu dhisay guri rug kuu ah, oo ah meel aad weligaa degganaanayso.

I have surely built You an exalted house, And a place for You to dwell in forever.” Solomon’s Speech at Completion of the Work

14 M arkaasaa boqorkii soo jeestay, oo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan u duceeyey, shirkii reer binu Israa'iilna way wada istaageen.

Then the king turned around and blessed the whole assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

15 M arkaasuu yidhi, Mahad waxaa leh Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, oo afkiisa kula hadlay aabbahay Daa'uud, oo gacantiisa ku oofiyey isagoo leh,

And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who spoke with His mouth to my father David, and with His hand has fulfilled it, saying,

16 T an iyo maalintii aan dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil ka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan kama aan dooran magaalo guri la iiga dhiso si magacaygu halkaas ugu jiro, laakiinse Daa'uud baan u doortay inuu dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil u taliyo.

‘Since the day that I brought My people Israel out of Egypt, I have chosen no city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My name might be there; but I chose David to be over My people Israel.’

17 H addaba aabbahay waxaa qalbigiisa ku jiray inuu guri u dhiso magaca Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil.

Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel.

18 L aakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu aabbahay Daa'uud ku yidhi, Qalbigaaga waxaa ku jiray inaad guri u dhisto magacayga aawadiis, oo taasu hadday qalbigaaga ku jirtay waad ku hagaagsanayd.

But the Lord said to my father David, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a temple for My name, you did well that it was in your heart.

19 H abase yeeshee adigu guri ii dhisi maysid, laakiinse wiilkaaga kaa soo bixi doona ayaa magacayga gurigii u dhisi doona.

Nevertheless you shall not build the temple, but your son who will come from your body, he shall build the temple for My name.’

20 O o Rabbigu wuu adkeeyey eraygiisii uu ku hadlay; waayo, meeshii aabbahay Daa'uud anigaa fuulay, oo waxaan ku fadhiistay carshigii reer binu Israa'iil, sidii Rabbigu ballanqaaday; oo gurigii baan u dhisay Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil magiciisa.

So the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke; and I have filled the position of my father David, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised; and I have built a temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel.

21 O o halkaasna meel baan uga sameeyey sanduuqii uu ku jiray axdigii Rabbiga ee uu awowayaasheen la dhigtay markuu ka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar. Ducadii Sulaymaan

And there I have made a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord which He made with our fathers, when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.” Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication

22 M arkaasaa Sulaymaan hor istaagay meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga iyadoo ay wada joogaan shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu, oo intuu gacmihiisii xagga samada u kala bixiyey,

Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven;

23 a yuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, Ilaah kula mid ahu kuma jiro samada sare ama dhulka hoose toona, adoo axdiga xajiyaa oo u naxariistaa addoommadaada hortaada ku socda oo kugu aamina qalbigooda oo dhan.

and he said: “ Lord God of Israel, there is no God in heaven above or on earth below like You, who keep Your covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.

24 W aad xajisay wixii aad u ballanqaadday aabbahay Daa'uud oo addoonkaagii ahaa; run ahaan afkaagaad kaga hadashay oo gacantaadana waad ku oofisay siday maantadan tahay.

You have kept what You promised Your servant David my father; You have both spoken with Your mouth and fulfilled it with Your hand, as it is this day.

25 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed, Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, xaji wixii aad u ballanqaadday aabbahay Daa'uud oo addoonkaagii ahaa, adoo ku leh, Hortayda laga waayi maayo nin carshiga reer binu Israa'iil ku fadhiista, hadday carruurtaadu isjiraan, oo ay hortayda ugu socdaan sidaad hortayda ugu socotay oo kale.

Therefore, Lord God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, only if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk before Me as you have walked before Me.’

26 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, waan ku baryayaaye eraygaagii aad kula hadashay aabbahay Daa'uud oo addoonkaagii ahaa ha rumoobo.

And now I pray, O God of Israel, let Your word come true, which You have spoken to Your servant David my father.

27 H addaba ma dhab baa in Ilaah dhulka degganaan doono? Xataa samada iyo samada samooyinku kuma qaadi karaan, haddaba bal gurigan aan dhisay sidee buu kuu qaadi karaa!

“But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You. How much less this temple which I have built!

28 O o weliba Rabbiyow, Ilaahayow, aqbal tukashadayda iyo baryootankayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, oo maqal qaylada iyo tukashada anoo addoonkaaga ahu aan maanta hortaada ku tukanayo,

Yet regard the prayer of Your servant and his supplication, O Lord my God, and listen to the cry and the prayer which Your servant is praying before You today:

29 i n indhahaagu ay habeen iyo maalinba la jiraan gurigan oo ah meeshii aad tidhi, Magacaygu halkaasuu ku jiri doonaa, si aad u maqashid tukashadayda anoo addoonkaaga ah oo aan meeshan xaggeeda u soo tukanayo.

that Your eyes may be open toward this temple night and day, toward the place of which You said, ‘My name shall be there,’ that You may hear the prayer which Your servant makes toward this place.

30 B al maqal baryootankayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, iyo kan dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil markaannu meeshan xaggeeda u soo tukanayno, kaas ka maqal samada oo ah meeshaad deggan tahay, oo markaad maqashid na cafi.

And may You hear the supplication of Your servant and of Your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Hear in heaven Your dwelling place; and when You hear, forgive.

31 H addii nin deriskiisa ku dembaabo, oo dhaar la saaro oo la dhaariyo, oo intuu yimaado uu ku hor dhaarto meeshaada allabariga ee gurigan taal,

“When anyone sins against his neighbor, and is forced to take an oath, and comes and takes an oath before Your altar in this temple,

32 d e markaa samada ka maqal oo yeel, oo addoommadaada xukun adigoo kii shar leh ciqaabaya si aad xumaantii jidkiisa madaxa ugu saartid, oo aad kii xaq ahna xaq uga dhigtid, oo aad ugu abaalguddid sida xaqnimadiisu tahay.

then hear in heaven, and act, and judge Your servants, condemning the wicked, bringing his way on his head, and justifying the righteous by giving him according to his righteousness.

33 O o haddii dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil cadowgoodu uu u laayo dembigii ay kugu dembaabeen aawadiis, oo ay soo noqdaan, oo magacaaga qirtaan, oo tukadaan, oo gurigan kugu baryaan,

“When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and when they turn back to You and confess Your name, and pray and make supplication to You in this temple,

34 d e markaas samada ka maqal oo dembiga dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil ka cafi, oo iyaga ku soo celi dalkii aad awowayaashood siisay.

then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of Your people Israel, and bring them back to the land which You gave to their fathers.

35 O o hadday kugu dembaabaan, oo aad sidaas aawadeed samada uga xidho, oo roob la waayo, oo ay meeshan xaggeeda u soo tukadaan, oo magacaaga qirtaan, oo dembigoodii ka soo noqdaan markaad dhibtid,

“When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against You, when they pray toward this place and confess Your name, and turn from their sin because You afflict them,

36 d e markaas samada ka maqal, oo dembiga ka cafi addoommadaada iyo dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil, markaad bartid jidka wanaagsan ee waajibka ku ah inay ku socdaan, oo roob u soo dir dalkaaga aad dadkaaga dhaxal ahaan u siisay.

then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of Your servants, Your people Israel, that You may teach them the good way in which they should walk; and send rain on Your land which You have given to Your people as an inheritance.

37 O o hadday dalka ka dhacaan abaar, ama belaayo cudur ah, ama beera-engeeg, ama caariyaysi, ama ayax, ama diir, ama haddii cadowgoodu ku hareereeyo dalkooda magaalooyinkiisa, belaayo kasta iyo cudur kastaba ha ahaadee,

“When there is famine in the land, pestilence or blight or mildew, locusts or grasshoppers; when their enemy besieges them in the land of their cities; whatever plague or whatever sickness there is;

38 k olkaas haddii nin kastaaba amase dadka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu ay tukadaan oo baryootamaan oo nin kastaaba ogaado belaayada qalbigiisa ku jirta, oo uu gacmaha u soo fidiyo gurigan xaggiisa,

whatever prayer, whatever supplication is made by anyone, or by all Your people Israel, when each one knows the plague of his own heart, and spreads out his hands toward this temple:

39 d e markaas samada oo ah meeshaad deggan tahay ka maqal, oo iyaga cafi, oo yeel, oo nin walba ugu abaalgud siday jidadkiisa oo dhammu yihiin, adoo qalbigiisa og, (maxaa yeelay, adigoo keliya ayaa garta waxa binu-aadmiga oo dhan qalbiyadooda ku jira;)

then hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive, and act, and give to everyone according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for You alone know the hearts of all the sons of men),

40 i nay kaa cabsadaan cimrigooda oo dhan intay ku nool yihiin dalkii aad awowayaashayo siisay.

that they may fear You all the days that they live in the land which You gave to our fathers.

41 O o weliba shisheeyaha aan dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil ahaynna, hadduu dal fog uga yimaado magacaaga aawadiis,

“Moreover, concerning a foreigner, who is not of Your people Israel, but has come from a far country for Your name’s sake

42 ( waayo, waxay maqli doonaan magacaaga weyn, iyo gacantaada xoogga badan, iyo cududdaada fidsan) markuu yimaado oo uu u soo tukado gurigan xaggiisa,

43 d e markaas samada oo ah meeshaad deggan tahay ka maqal, oo shisheeyaha u yeel wixii uu ku weyddiisto oo dhan, in dadka dunida jooga oo dhammu ay magacaaga ogaadaan, oo ay kaa cabsadaan sida dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil oo kale, iyo inay ogaadaan in gurigan aan dhisay magacaaga loogu yeedho.

hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You, that all peoples of the earth may know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and that they may know that this temple which I have built is called by Your name.

44 O o hadday dadkaagu dagaal u baxaan inay la diriraan cadowgooda, oo ay maraan jidkii aad ku soo dirtay, oo ay ku baryaan oo u soo tukadaan xagga magaaladii aad dooratay iyo xagga gurigii aan magacaaga u dhisay,

“When Your people go out to battle against their enemy, wherever You send them, and when they pray to the Lord toward the city which You have chosen and the temple which I have built for Your name,

then hear in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.

46 H addii ay kugu dembaabaan, waayo, nin aan dembaabinu ma jiro, oo aad u cadhootid, oo aad markaas cadowga u gacangelisid inay la tagaan oo maxaabiis ahaan ugu kaxaystaan cadowga dalkiisii, ama ha dhowaado ama ha dheeraadee;

“When they sin against You (for there is no one who does not sin), and You become angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, and they take them captive to the land of the enemy, far or near;

47 o o weliba hadday ku fikiraan dalkii maxaabiis ahaanta loogu kaxaystay, oo ay kuu soo noqdaan, oo ay kugu baryaan dalkii kuwii maxaabiisahaanta u kaxaystay, ee ay yidhaahdaan, Waannu dembaabnay, oo wax qalloocan baannu samaynay, oo si shar ah ayaannu u macaamiloonnay,

and when they return to You with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies who led them away captive, and pray to You toward their land which You gave to their fathers, the city which You have chosen and the temple which I have built for Your name:

49 m arkaas tukashadooda iyo baryootankooda ka maqal samada oo ah meeshaad deggan tahay, dacwaddoodana u yeel;

then hear in heaven Your dwelling place their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause,

50 o o cafi dadkaaga kugu dembaabay, oo ka saamax xadgudubyadooda ay kugu xadgudbeen oo dhan; oo kuwii maxaabiis ahaanta u kaxaystay raxmad geli si ay ugu naxariistaan,

and forgive Your people who have sinned against You, and all their transgressions which they have transgressed against You; and grant them compassion before those who took them captive, that they may have compassion on them

51 m axaa yeelay, iyagu waa dadkaagii iyo dhaxalkaagii aad ka soo bixisay dalkii Masar iyo foornadii birta dhexdeeda;

(for they are Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the iron furnace),

52 o o dhegahaagu ha maqleen baryootanka addoonkaaga iyo baryootanka dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil si aad u maqashid mar alla markay kuu qayshadaanba,

that Your eyes may be open to the supplication of Your servant and the supplication of Your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they call to You.

53 w aayo, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, iyagaad uga soocatay dadkii dunida oo dhan inay ahaadaan dhaxalkaagii, siduu ahaa eraygaagii aad u soo dhiibtay addoonkaagii Muuse, markaad awowayaashayo ka soo bixisay dalkii Masar.

For You separated them from among all the peoples of the earth to be Your inheritance, as You spoke by Your servant Moses, when You brought our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.” Solomon Blesses the Assembly

54 O o markii Sulaymaan dhammeeyey tukashadan iyo baryootankan uu Rabbiga baryay oo dhan ayuu ka kacay meeshii Rabbiga allabariga loogu bixin jiray horteeda iyo jilbajooggii uu jilbo joogay isagoo gacmaha xagga samada u fidinaya.

And so it was, when Solomon had finished praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he arose from before the altar of the Lord, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven.

55 M arkaasuu istaagay oo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan cod weyn ugu duceeyey, oo yidhi,

Then he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying:

56 W axaa mahad leh Rabbiga nasiyey dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil siduu ugu ballanqaaday oo dhan, oo wixii uu u ballanqaaday oo dhan eray keliya kama baaqan ballankiisii wanaagsanaa oo dhan, ee uu ugu ballanqaaday addoonkiisii Muuse.

“Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised. There has not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised through His servant Moses.

57 R abbiga Ilaaheenna ahu ha inoola jiro, siduu ula jiray awowayaasheen oo kale; oo yuusan inaga tegin, oo ina dayrin;

May the Lord our God be with us, as He was with our fathers. May He not leave us nor forsake us,

58 s i uu qalbiyadeenna xaggiisa ugu jeediyo inaynu ku soconno jidadkiisa oo dhan, oo aynu xajinno amarradiisa iyo qaynuunnadiisa iyo xukummadiisa uu awowayaasheen ku amray.

that He may incline our hearts to Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers.

59 O o erayadaydan aan Rabbiga hortiisa ku baryay, habeen iyo maalinba ha gaadheen Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah, si uu u yeelo dacwaddayda anoo addoonkiisa ah iyo dacwadda dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil, sida maalin walba laga doonayo,

And may these words of mine, with which I have made supplication before the Lord, be near the Lord our God day and night, that He may maintain the cause of His servant and the cause of His people Israel, as each day may require,

60 s i ay dadka dunida jooga oo dhammu u ogaadaan in Rabbigu Ilaah yahay oo aan mid kale jirin.

that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord is God; there is no other.

61 S idaas daraaddeed qalbigiinnu ha u qummanaado Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah, inaad qaynuunnadiisa ku socotaan oo aad amarradiisa xajisaan sida maanta oo kale. Macbudkii Oo Gooni Laga Dhigay

Let your heart therefore be loyal to the Lord our God, to walk in His statutes and keep His commandments, as at this day.” Solomon Dedicates the Temple

62 M arkaas boqorkii iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammaantood la jira ayaa allabari Rabbiga hortiisa ku bixiyey.

Then the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifices before the Lord.

63 O o Sulaymaan qurbaannada nabaadiinada ee uu Rabbiga u bixiyey waxay ahaayeen laba iyo labaatan kun oo dibi, iyo boqol iyo labaatan kun oo ido ah. Oo sidaasay boqorkii iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuba gooni uga dhigeen gurigii Rabbiga.

And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to the Lord, twenty-two thousand bulls and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the Lord.

64 O o isla maalintaasuu boqorku quduus ka dhigay barxaddii ka horraysay guriga Rabbiga dhexdeeda, waayo, halkaas wuxuu ku bixiyey qurbaanka la gubo, iyo qurbaanka hadhuudhka, iyo baruurtii qurbaannada nabaadiinada; maxaa yeelay, meeshii allabariga oo naxaasta ahayd ee Rabbiga hor tiil way ku yarayd oo ma wada qaadin qurbaanka la gubo iyo qurbaanka hadhuudhka iyo baruurtii qurbaannada nabaadiinada.

On the same day the king consecrated the middle of the court that was in front of the house of the Lord; for there he offered burnt offerings, grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar that was before the Lord was too small to receive the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.

65 O o wakhtigaas Sulaymaan sidaasuu iiddii u sameeyey iyadoo ay la joogaan reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu kuwaasoo ahaa shir weyn, oo waxay ka yimaadeen meesha Xamaad laga soo galo iyo ilaa durdurka Masar, oo Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah hortiisa waxay ku iidayeen toddoba maalmood iyo toddoba maalmood oo isku ah afar iyo toban beri.

At that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven more days—fourteen days.

66 O o maalintii siddeedaad ayuu dadkii diray, oo iyana intay boqorkii u duceeyeen ayay teendhooyinkoodii tageen iyagoo faraxsan oo qalbigoodu kaga rayraynaya wanaaggii oo dhan oo uu Rabbigu u sameeyey addoonkiisii Daa'uud iyo dadkiisii reer binu Israa'iilba.

On the eighth day he sent the people away; and they blessed the king, and went to their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the good that the Lord had done for His servant David, and for Israel His people.
