1 Kings 8
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς συνετέλεσεν Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου καὶ τὸν οἶκον ἑαυτοῦ μετὰ εἴκοσι ἔτη, τοτε ἐξεκκλησίασεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμὼν πάντας τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Σειὼν τοῦ ἐνεγκεῖν τὴν κιβωτὸν διαθήκης Κυρίου ἐκ πόλεως Δαυείδ, αὕτη ἐστὶν Σειών,
At that time Solomon assembled before him in Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Zion, the City of David.
ἐν μηνὶ Ἀθαμείν.
And all the men of Israel came together to King Solomon at the feast in the seventh month (note: That is, the Feast of Tabernacles (or Booths or Shelters); similarly in verse 65; see Leviticus 23:33–36.), the month of Ethanim (note: Ethanim was the seventh month of the ancient Hebrew lunar calendar, usually occurring within the months of September and October.).
καὶ ἦραν οἱ ἱερεῖς τὴν κιβωτὸν
When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the priests took up the ark,
καὶ τὸ σκήωνμα τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τὰ σκεύη τὰ ἅγια τὰ ἐν τῷ σκηνώματι τοῦ μαρτυρίου·
and they brought up the ark of the LORD and the Tent of Meeting with all its sacred furnishings. So the priests and Levites carried them up.
καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἔμποσθεν τῆς κιβωτοῦ θύοντες πρόβατα, βόας, αναρίθμητα.
There, before the ark, King Solomon and the whole congregation of Israel who had assembled with him sacrificed so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered.
καὶ εἰσθέρουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς τὴν κιβωτὸν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτῆς, εἰς τὸ δαβεὶρ τοῦ οἴκου, εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, ὑπὸ τὰς πτέρυγας τῶν χερουβείν.
Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Most Holy Place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.
ὅτι τὰ χερουβεὶν διαπεπετασμενα ταῖς πτέρυξιν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον τῆς κιβωτοῦ· καὶ περιεκάλυπτον τὰ χερουβεὶν ἐπὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν καὶ ἐπὲ τὰ ἅγια αὐτῆς ἀπάνωθεν,
For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark and overshadowed the ark and its poles.
καὶ ὑπερεῖχον τὰ ἡγιασμένα· καὶ ἐνεβλέποντο αἱ κεφαλαὶ τῶν ἡγιασμένων ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων εἰς πρόσωπον τοῦ δαβείρ, καὶ οὐκ ὠπτάνοντο ἔξω.
The poles extended far enough that their ends were visible from the Holy Place in front of the inner sanctuary, but not from outside the Holy Place; and they are there to this day.
οὐκ ἦν ἐν τῇ κιβωτῷ πλὴν δύο πλάκες λίθιναι, π0λάκες τῆς διαθήκης ἕθηκεν Μωυσῆς ἐν Χωρήβ, ἃ διέθετο Κύριος μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῷ ἐκπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets that Moses had placed in it at Horeb (note: That is, Mount Sinai, or possibly a mountain in the range containing Mount Sinai), where the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites after they had come out of the land of Egypt.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐξῆλθον οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐκ τοῦ ἁγίου, καὶ ἡ νεφέλη ἔπλησεν τὸν οἶκον·
And when the priests came out of the Holy Place, the cloud filled the house of the LORD
καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο οἱ ἱερεῖς στήκειν λειτουργεῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς νεφέλης, ὅτι ἔπλησεν δόξα Κυρίου τὸν οἶκον·
so that the priests could not stand there to minister because of the cloud. For the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD.
Καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πάντα Ἰσραήλ· καὶ πᾶσα ἐκκλησία Ἰσραὴλ ἱστήκει·
And as the whole assembly of Israel stood there, the king turned around and blessed them all
καὶ εἶπεν Εὐλογητὸς Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ σήμερον, ὃς ἐλάλησεν ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτοῦ περὶ Δαυεὶδ τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν ἀυτοῦ ἐπλήρωσεν λέγων
and said: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His own hand what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, saying,
Ἀφ’ ἧς ἡμέρας ἐξήγαγον τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, οὐκ ἐξελεξάμην ἐν πόλει ἐν ἑνὶ σκήπτρῳ Ἰσραήλ, τοῦ οἰκοδομπησαι οἶναι ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
‘Since the day I brought My people Israel out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house so that My Name would be there. But I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’
καὶ ἐγέωετο ἐπὶ τῆς καρδίας τοῦ πατρός μου οἰκοδομῆσαι οἶκον τᾦ ὀνόματι Κυρίου θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς Δαυεὶδ τὸν πατέρα μου Ἀνθ’ ὧν ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὴν καρδίαν σου τοῦ οἰκοδομπησαι οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματί μου, καλῶς ἐποςιησας ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἐπὶ τὴν καρδίαν σου.
But the LORD said to my father David, ‘Since it was in your heart to build a house for My Name, you have done well to have this in your heart.
σὺ οὐκ οἰκοδομήσεις τὸν οἶκον· ἀλλ’ ἢ ὁ υἱός σου ὁ ἐξελθὼν ἐκ τῶν πλευρῶν σου, οὑτος οἰκοδομήσει τὸν οἶκον τῷ ὀνόματί μου.
Nevertheless, you are not the one to build it; but your son, your own offspring, will build the house for My Name.’
καὶ ἀνέστησεν Κύριος τὸ ῥῆμα αὐτοῦ ὃ ἐλάλησεν· καὶ ἀνέστην ἀντὶ Δαυεὶδ τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ ἐκάθιας ἀπὶ τοῦ θρόνου Ἰσραὴλ καθὼς ἐλάλησεν, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησα τὸν οἶκον τᾦ ὀνόματι Κυρίου θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
Now the LORD has fulfilled the word that He spoke. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the house for the Name of the LORD, the God of Israel.
καὶ ἐθέμην ἐκεῖ τόπον τῇ κιβωτῷ ἐν ᾗ ἐστιν ἐκεῖ διαθήκη Κυρίου ἣν διέθετο Κύριος μετὰ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ ἐξαγαγεῖν αὐτὸν αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
And there I have provided a place for the ark, which contains the covenant of the LORD that He made with our fathers when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
Καὶ ἀνέστη Σαλωμῶν κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου Κυρίου ἐνώπιον πάσης ἐκκλησίας Ἰσραήλ, καὶ διεπέτασεν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν
Then Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in front of the whole assembly of Israel, spread out his hands toward heaven,
καὶ εἶπεν Κύριε ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, οὐκ ἔστιν ὡς σὺ θεὸς ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ἄνω καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς κάτω, φυλάσσων διαθήκην καὶ ἔλεος τῷ δούλῳ σου τῷ πορευομένῳ ἐνώπιον σου ἐν ολῃ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ,
and said: “O LORD, God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven above or on earth below, keeping Your covenant of loving devotion with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.
ἅ ἐφύλαξας τῷ δούλῳ σου Δαυεὶδ τῷ πατρί μου· καὶ γὰρ ἐλάλησας ἐν τῷ στόματί σου, καὶ ἐν χερσίν σου ἐπλήρωσας ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη.
You have kept Your promise to Your servant, my father David. What You spoke with Your mouth You have fulfilled with Your hand this day.
καὶ νυν, Κύριε ο θεὸς Ἰσρήλ, φύλαξον τῷ δούλῳ σου τῷ Δαυεὶδ τῷ πατρί μου ἃ ἐλάλησας αὐτῷ λέγων Οὐκ ἐξαρθήσεταί σου ἀνὴρ ἐκ προσώπου μου καθήμενος ἐπὶ θρόνου Ἰσραήλ, πλὴν ἐὰν φυλάξωνται τὰ τέκνα σου τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ καθὼς ἐπορεύθης ενώπιον ἐμοῦ.
Therefore now, O LORD, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, what You promised when You said: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before Me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants guard their way to walk before Me as you have done.’
καὶ νῦν, Κύριε ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, πιστωθήτω δῆ τὸ ῤῆμά σου τῷ Δαυεὶδ τω πατρί μου.
And now, O God of Israel, please confirm what You promised to Your servant, my father David.
ὅτι εἰ ἀληθῶς κατοικήσει ὁ οὐρανὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ οὐκ ἀρκεσουσίν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς; εἰ ὁ ουρανὸς καὶ ὁ οὐρανὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ οὐκ ἀρκέσουσίν σοι, πλὴν καὶ ὁ οἶκος οὖτος ὃν ᾠκοδόμησα τῷ ὀνόματί σου;
But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.
καὶ ἐπιβλέψῃ ἐπὶ τὴν δέησίν μου, Κύριε ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, ἀκούειν τῆς τέρψεως ἦς ὁ δοῦλός σου προσεύχεται ἐνώπιόν σου πρὸς σὲ σήμερον,
Yet regard the prayer and plea of Your servant, O LORD my God, so that You may hear the cry and the prayer that Your servant is praying before You today.
τοῦ εἶναι ὀφθαλμούς σου ἠνεῳγμένους εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός, εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν εἶπας Ἔσται τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐκεῖ, τοῦ εἰσακούειν τῆς προσεχχῆς ἦς προσεύχεται ὁ δοῦλός σου εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός.
May Your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, toward the place of which You said, ‘My Name shall be there,’ so that You may hear the prayer that Your servant prays toward this place.
καὶ εἰσακούςῃ τῆς δεήσεως τοῦ δούλου σου καὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου Ἰσραήλ, ἃ ἂν προσεύξωνται εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον· καὶ σὺ εἰσακούςῃ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τῆς κατοικήσεώς σου ἐν ουρανῷ, καὶ ποιήσεις καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ.
Hear the plea of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place. May You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place. May You hear and forgive.
ὅσα ἂν ἁμάρτῃ ἕκαστος τῷ πλησίον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐὰν λάβῃ ἐπ’ αὐτὸν ἀρὰν τοῦ ἀρᾶσθαι αὐτόν, καὶ ἔλθῃ καὶ ἐξαγορεύσῃ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου σου ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ·
When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he comes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,
καὶ σὺ εἰσακούσει ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ποιήσεις, καὶ κρινεῖς τὸν λαόν σου Ἰσραήλ, ἀνομηθῆναι ἄνομον, δοῦναι τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς κεφαλὴν αῦτοῦ, καὶ τοῦ δικαιῶσαι δίκαιον, δοῦναι αὐτῷ κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ.
then may You hear from heaven and act. May You judge Your servants, condemning the wicked man by bringing down on his own head what he has done, and justifying the righteous man by rewarding him according to his righteousness.
ἐν τῷ πταῖσαι τὸν λαόν σου Ἰσραὴλ ἐνώπιον ἐχθρῶν ὅτι ἁμαρτήσονταί σοι, καὶ ἐπιστρέψουσιν καὶ ἐξομολογήσονται τῷ ὀνόματί σου, καὶ προσεύξονται καὶ δεηθήσονται ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ·
When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your name, praying and pleading with You in this temple,
καὶ σὺ εἰσακούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις τοῦ δούλου σου Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἀποστρίψεις αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκας τοὶς πατράσιν αὐτῶν.
then may You hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your people Israel. May You restore them to the land You gave to their fathers.
ἐν τῷ συσχεθῆναι τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ μὴ γενέσθαι ὑετὸν ὅτι ἁμαρτήσονταί σοι, καὶ προσεύξονται εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον καὶ ἐξομολογήσονται τῷ ὀνόματί σου, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτῶν ἀποστρέψουσιν ὅταν ταπεινώσῃς αὐτούς·
When the skies are shut and there is no rain because Your people have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your name, and they turn from their sins because You have afflicted them,
καὶ εἰσακούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ ταῖς ἁματρίαις τοῦ δούλου σου καὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου Ἰσραήλ· ὅτι δηλώσεις αὐτοῖς τὴν ὁδὸν τὴν ἀγαρὴν πορεύεσθαι ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ δώσεις ὑετὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἥν ἔδωκας τῷ δούσῳ σου ἐν κληρονομίᾳ.
then may You hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your servants, Your people Israel, so that You may teach them the good way in which they should walk. May You send rain on the land that You gave Your people as an inheritance.
λιμὸς ἐὰν γένηται, θάνατος ἐὰν γένηται, ὅτι ἔσται ἐνπυρισμός, βροῦχος, ἐρυςίβη ἐὰν γένηται, καὶ ἐὰν θλίψῃ αὐτὸν ἐχθρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν μιᾷ τῶν πόλεων αὐτοῦ, πᾶν συνάντημα, πᾶν πόνον,
When famine or plague comes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemy besieges them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may come,
πᾶσαν προσευχήν, πᾶσαν δέησιν ἐὰν γένηται παντὶ ἀνθρώπῳ, ὡς ἂν γνῶσιν ἕκαστος ἁφὴν καρδίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ διαπετάσῃ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον·
then may whatever prayer or petition Your people Israel make—each knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—
καὶ σὺ εἰσακούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐξ ἑτοίμου κατοικητηρίου σου καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ, καὶ ποιήσεις καὶ δώσεις ἀνδρὶ κατὰ τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ καθὼς ἂν γνῷς τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ, ὅτι σὺ μονώτατος οἶσας τὴν καρδίαν πάντων υἱῶν ἀνθρώπων,
be heard by You from heaven, Your dwelling place. And may You forgive and act, and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his heart—for You alone know the hearts of all men—
ὅπως φοβῶνταί δε πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὅσας αὐτοὶ ζῶσιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἦς ἔδωκας τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν.
so that they may fear You all the days they live in the land that You gave to our fathers.
καὶ τῷ ἀλλοτρίῳ ὅς οὐκ ἔστιν ἀπὸ λαοῦ σου οῦτος ,
And as for the foreigner who is not of Your people Israel but has come from a distant land because of Your name—
καὶ ἥξουσιν καὶ προσεύξονται εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον·
for they will hear of Your great name and mighty hand and outstretched arm—when he comes and prays toward this temple,
καὶ σὺ εἰσακούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐξ ἐτοίμου κατοικητηρίου σου, καὶ ποιήσεις κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἂν ἐπικαλέσηταί δε ἱ ἀλλότρις, ὅπως γνῶσιν πάντες οἰ λαοὶ τὸ ὄνομά σου καὶ φοβῶνταί δε καθὼς ὁ λαός σου Ἰσραήλ, καὶ γνπωσιν ὅτι τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπικέκληται ἐπὶ τὸν λἶκον τοῦτον ὃν ᾠκοδόμησα.
then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Name.
ὅτι ἐξελεύσεται ὁ λαός σου εἰς πόλεμον ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν ὁδῷ ᾖ ἐπιστρέψεις αὐτούς, καὶ προσεύξονται ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου ὁδὸν τῆς πόλεως ἦς ἐξελέξω ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ τοῦ οἴκου οὖ ᾠκοδόμησα τῷ ὀνόματί σου·
When Your people go to war against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to the LORD in the direction of the city You have chosen and the house I have built for Your Name,
καὶ σὺ εἰσακούσει ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τῆς δεήσεως αὐτῶν καὶ τῆς προσευχῆς αὐτῶν, καὶ ποιήσεις τὸ δικαίωμα αὐτοῖς.
then may You hear from heaven their prayer and their plea, and may You uphold their cause.
ὅτι ἁμαρτήσονταί σοι, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἄνθρπος ὃς οὐκ ἁμαρτήσεται, καὶ ἐπάξεις αὐτοὺς καὶ παραδώσεις αὐτοὺς ἐνώπιον ἐχθρῶν, καὶ αἰχμαλωτιοῦαιν οἱ αἰχμαλωτιοῦσιν οἱ αἰχμαλωτίζοντες εἰς γὴν μακρὰν καὶ ἐγγύς,
When they sin against You—for there is no one who does not sin—and You become angry with them and deliver them to an enemy who takes them as captives to his own land, whether far or near,
καὶ ἐπιστρέψουσιν καρδίας αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ γῇ οὗ μετήχθησαν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἐπιστρέψωσιν ἐν γῇ μετοικάας αὐτῶν καὶ δεηθῶσίν σου λέγοντες Ἡμάρτομεν, ἠδικήσαμεν, ἠνομήσαμεν·
and when they come to their senses in the land to which they were taken, and they repent and plead with You in the land of their captors, saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,’
καὶ ἐπιστρέψωσιν πρὸς σὲ ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ ψυχῇ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν οὗ μετήγαγες αὐτούς, καὶ προσεύξονται πρὸς σὲ ὁδὸν γῆς αὐτῶν ἧς ἔδωκας τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, τῆς πόλεως ἧς ἐξελέξω καὶ τοῦ οἴκου οὗ ᾠκοδόμηκα τῷ ὀνόματί σου·
and when they return to You with all their heart and soul in the land of the enemies who took them captive, and when they pray to You in the direction of the land that You gave to their fathers, the city You have chosen, and the house I have built for Your Name,
καὶ εἰσακούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐξ ἑτοίμου κατοικητηρίου σου,
then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, their prayer and petition, and may You uphold their cause.
καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτῶν αἷς ἥμαρτόν σοι καὶ κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἀθετήματα αὐτῶν ἃ ἠθέτησάν σοι, καὶ δώσεις αὐτοὺς εἰς οἰκτειρμοὺς ἐνώπιον αἰχμαλωτευόντων αὐτοὺς καὶ οἰκτειρήσουσιν εἰς αὐτούς·
May You forgive Your people who have sinned against You and all the transgressions they have committed against You, and may You grant them compassion in the eyes of their captors to show them mercy.
ὅτι λαός σου καὶ κληρονομία σου, οὓς ἐξήγαγες ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἐκ μέσου χωνευτηρίου σιδήρου.
For they are Your people and Your inheritance; You brought them out of Egypt, out of the furnace for iron.
καὶ ἔστωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου καὶ τὰ ὦτά σου ἠνεῳγμένα εἰς τὴν δέησιν τοῦ δούλου σου καὶ εἰς τὴν δεήσιν τοῦ λαοῦ σου Ἰσραήλ, εἰσακούειν αὐτῶν ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἂν ἐπικαλέσωνταί σε.
May Your eyes be open to the pleas of Your servant and of Your people Israel, and may You listen to them whenever they call to You.
καὶ σὺ διέστειλας σαυτῷ εἰς κληρονομίαν ἐκ πάντων τῶν λαῶν τῆς γῆς, καθὼς ἐλάλησας ἐν χειρὶ δούλου σου Μωυςῆ, ἐν τῷ ἐξαγαγεῖν σε τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν ἐκ ηῆς Αἰγύπτου, κύριε Κύριε.
For You, O Lord GOD, have set them apart from all the peoples of the earth as Your inheritance, as You spoke through Your servant Moses when You brought our fathers out of Egypt.”
Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς συνετέλεσεν Σαλωμὼν προσευχόμενος πρὸς Κύριον προσευχὴν καὶ τὴν δέησιν ταύτην, καὶ ἀνέστηἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου Κυρίου, ὀκλακὼς ἐπὶ τὰ γόνατα αὐτοῦ καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ διαπεπετασμέναι εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
Now when Solomon had finished praying this entire prayer and petition to the LORD, he got up before the altar of the LORD, where he had been kneeling with his hands spread out toward heaven.
καὶ ἔστη καὶ εὐλόγησεν πᾶσαν ἐκκλησίαν Ἰσραὴλ Φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων
And he stood and blessed the whole assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying:
Εὐλοκατὰ Κύριος σήμερον, ὃς ἔδωκεν κατάπαυσιν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ Ἱσραὴλ κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐλάλησεν. οὐ διεφώνησεν λόγος εἶς ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς λόγοις αὐτοῦ τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς οἶς ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ δούλου αὐτοῦ Μωυςῆ.
“Blessed be the LORD, who has given rest to His people Israel according to all that He promised. Not one word has failed of all the good promises He made through His servant Moses.
γένοιτο Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν μεθ’ἡμῶν καθὼς ἦν μετὰ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν. μὴ ἐγκαταλίποιτο ἡμᾶς μηδὲ ἀποστρέψοιτο ἡμᾶς,
May the LORD our God be with us, as He was with our fathers. May He never leave us or forsake us.
ἐπικλῖναι καρδίας ἡμῶν ἐπ’αὐτὸν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν πάσαις ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ Φυλάσσειν πάσας ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ καὶ προστάγματα αὐτοῦ ἂ ἐνετείλατο τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν.
May He incline our hearts to Himself, to walk in all His ways and to keep the commandments and statutes and ordinances He commanded our fathers.
καὶ ἔστωσαν οἱ λόγοι οὖτοι ὡς δεδέημαι ἐνώπιον Κυρίου θεοῦ ποιεῖν τὴ δικαίωμα τοῦ δούλου σου Ἰραὴλ ῥῆμα ἡμέρας ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἐνιαυτοῦ.
And may these words with which I have made my petition before the LORD be near to the LORD our God day and night, so that He may uphold the cause of His servant and of His people Israel as each day requires,
ὅπως γνῶσιν πάντες οἱ λαοὶ τῆς γῆς ὅτι Κύριος ὁ θεός, αὐτὸς θεὸς καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἔτι.
so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD is God. There is no other!
καὶ ἔστωσαξν αἰ καρδίαι ἡμῶν τέλειαι πρὸς Κύριον θεὸν ἡμῶν, καὶ ὁσίως πορεύεσθαι ἐν τοῖς προστάγμασιν αὐτοῦ καὶ Φυλάσσειν ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη.
So let your heart be fully devoted to the LORD our God, as it is this day, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments.”
Καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ πάντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἔθυσαν θυσίαν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου.
Then the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifices before the LORD.
καὶ ἔθυσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμὼν τὰς θυσίας τῶν εἰρηνικῶν ὦν ἔθυσεν τῷ κυρίῳ, βοῶν δύο καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες. καὶ ἐνεκαίνισεν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ πάντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ.
And Solomon offered as peace offerings to the LORD 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the Israelites dedicated the house of the LORD.
τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείηῃ ἡγίασεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ μέσον τῆς αὐλῆς τὸ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου. ὅτι ἐποίησεν ἐκεῖ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ τὰς θυσίας καὶ τὰ στέατα τῶν εἰρηνικῶν, ὅτι τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν τὸ ἐνώπιον Κυρίου μικρὸν τοῦ μὴ δλτβασυαθ τὴν ὁλοκαυτωσιν καὶ τὰς θυσίας τῶν εἰρηνικῶν ὑπενεγκεῖν.
On that same day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard in front of the house of the LORD, and there he offered the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, since the bronze altar before the LORD was too small to contain all these offerings.
καὶ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμὼν τὴν ἑορτὴν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείηῃ καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετ’ αὐτοῦ, ἐκκλησία μεγάλη ἀπὸ τῆς εἰσόδου Ἡμὰθ ἕως ποταμοῦ Αἰγίπτου, ἐνώπιον Κυρίου θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ ᾧ ᾠκοδόμησεν, ἐσθίων καὶ πίνων καὶ εὐφραινόμενος ἐνώπιον Κυρίου θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐπτὰ ἡμερας.
So at that time Solomon and all Israel with him—a great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast before the LORD our God for seven days and seven more days—fourteen days in all.
καὶ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ ἐξαέστειλεν τὸν λαίν, καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἕκαστος εἰς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτοῦ χαίροντες· καὶ ἀγαθὴ ἡ καρδία ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς οἷς ἐποίησεν κύριος τῷ Λαυεὶδ δούλῳ αὐτοῦ καὶ τῷ Ἰσραὴλ λαῷ αὐτοῦ.
On the fifteenth day (note: Hebrew On the eighth day, probably referring to the day following the seven-day feast; see 2 Chronicles 7:9–10.) Solomon sent the people away. So they blessed the king and went home, joyful and glad in heart for all the good things that the LORD had done for His servant David and for His people Israel.
