6 Atunci Solomon a zis: „Domnul a spus că va locui în negură. 2 Eu am zidit o Casă măreaţă pentru Tine, un loc în care să locuieşti pe vecie.“ 3 Apoi regele s-a întors cu faţa spre întreaga adunare a lui Israel şi a binecuvântat-o. Întreaga adunare a lui Israel stătea în picioare. 4 El a zis:
„Binecuvântat să fie Domnul, Dumnezeul lui Israel, Care a împlinit prin puterea Sa ceea ce i-a promis tatălui meu, David, când a zis: 5 «Din ziua când Mi-am scos poporul din ţara Egiptului, nu am ales nici o cetate din toate seminţiile lui Israel ca să-Mi zidesc acolo o Casă pentru Numele Meu şi nici nu am ales pe cineva care să fie conducătorul poporului Meu, Israel, 6 ci am ales Ierusalimul, pentru ca Numele Meu să fie acolo şi l-am ales pe David ca să domnească peste poporul Meu, Israel.» 7 Tatăl meu, David, avea de gând să zidească o Casă pentru Numele Domnului, Dumnezeul lui Israel. 8 Dar Domnul i-a zis tatălui meu, David: «Tu te-ai gândit să zideşti o Casă Numelui Meu şi este bine că te-ai gândit în felul acesta! 9 Totuşi nu tu vei zidi Casa, ci fiul tău; cel ce ţi s-a născut va zidi o Casă Numelui Meu!» 10 Domnul a împlinit ceea ce a promis. Eu m-am ridicat în locul tatălui meu, David, m-am aşezat pe tronul lui Israel, aşa cum a promis Domnul, am zidit Casa pentru Numele Domnului, Dumnezeul lui Israel, 11 şi am pus acolo Chivotul în care se află Legământul[a] încheiat de Domnul cu israeliţii.“
Rugăciunea lui Solomon
12 După aceea, Solomon s-a aşezat înaintea altarului Domnului şi, stând în prezenţa întregii adunări a lui Israel, şi-a întins mâinile spre cer. 13 Solomon făcuse o estradă din bronz şi o aşezase în mijlocul curţii. Aceasta avea o lungime de cinci coţi[b], o lăţime de cinci coţi şi o înălţime de trei coţi[c]. Pe ea stătea Solomon, atunci când s-a plecat pe genunchi în prezenţa întregii adunări a lui Israel şi şi-a întins mâinile spre cer. 14 El a mai zis:
„Doamne, Dumnezeul lui Israel, nu este nici un dumnezeu asemenea Ţie, nici în ceruri, nici pe pământ! Tu păstrezi legământul şi îndurarea[d] faţă de slujitorii Tăi, care umblă înaintea Ta din toată inima lor! 15 Tu Ţi-ai ţinut promisiunea faţă de robul Tău, tatăl meu, David; ce ai spus cu gura Ta, ai împlinit cu mâna Ta, cum se vede astăzi. 16 Doamne, Dumnezeul lui Israel, împlineşte ce ai promis robului Tău, tatăl meu, David, când ai zis: «Nu vei fi lipsit niciodată de un urmaş care să stea înaintea Mea, pe tronul lui Israel, dacă fiii tăi vor veghea la calea lor şi vor umbla în Legea Mea tot aşa cum ai umblat şi tu.» 17 Acum, Doamne, Dumnezeul lui Israel, împlinească-se promisiunea pe care ai făcut-o robului Tău, David. 18 Dar va locui într-adevăr Dumnezeu pe pământ cu omul? Iată că nici chiar cerurile şi cerurile cerurilor nu Te pot cuprinde, cu atât mai puţin Casa aceasta pe care am zidit-o eu! 19 Doamne, Dumnezeul meu, ia aminte la rugăciunea slujitorului Tău şi la cererea lui! Ascultă strigătul şi rugăciunea pe care Ţi-o face slujitorul Tău! 20 Fie ca ochii Tăi să vegheze zi şi noapte asupra acestei Case, asupra locului unde ai spus că-Ţi vei pune Numele. Ascultă rugăciunea pe care Ţi-o face slujitorul Tău cu privire la acest loc! 21 Ascultă cererile slujitorului Tău şi ale poporului Tău, Israel, când se vor ruga înspre acest loc. Ascultă din tărâmul locuinţei Tale, din ceruri, ascultă şi iartă!
22 Când va păcătui cineva împotriva semenului său şi va fi obligat apoi să facă un jurământ, când va veni să jure înaintea altarului din Casa aceasta, 23 ascultă din ceruri, lucrează şi judecă-i pe slujitorii Tăi, condamnându-l pe cel nelegiuit, aruncând asupra capului lui faptele lui şi îndreptăţindu-l pe cel drept, răsplătindu-i potrivit cu dreptatea lui.
24 Când poporul Tău, Israel, fiind biruit de duşman pentru că a păcătuit împotriva Ta, se va întoarce la Tine, va da slavă Numelui Tău, Ţi se va ruga şi va căuta bunăvoinţa Ta în Casa aceasta, 25 ascultă din ceruri, iartă păcatul poporului Tău, Israel, şi adu-l înapoi în ţara pe care i-ai dat-o lui şi strămoşilor lui.
26 Când cerul va fi închis şi nu va mai fi ploaie, pentru că au păcătuit împotriva Ta, iar ei se vor ruga înspre acest loc, vor da slavă Numelui Tău şi se vor întoarce de la păcatul lor, pentru că i-ai pedepsit, 27 ascultă din ceruri şi iartă păcatul slujitorilor Tăi şi al poporului Tău, Israel. Învaţă-i calea cea bună pe care trebuie să meargă şi trimite ploaie peste ţara Ta, pe care ai dat-o ca moştenire poporului Tău! 28 Când vor fi în ţară foamete, molimă, filoxeră, mană, lăcuste sau omizi, când duşmanii lor le vor asedia cetăţile, orice urgie sau boală ar veni, 29 dacă cineva din popor sau dacă tot poporul Tău, Israel, va face rugăciuni şi cereri, recunoscându-şi fiecare întinarea şi durerea lui şi va întinde mâinile spre Casa aceasta, 30 ascultă din ceruri, tărâmul locuinţei Tale, iartă şi răsplăteşte-i fiecăruia după faptele lui, Tu, Care cunoşti gândurile fiecăruia, căci numai Tu cunoşti inimile oamenilor. 31 Astfel, ei se vor teme de Tine şi vor umbla în căile Tale în tot timpul cât vor trăi în ţara pe care le-ai dat-o strămoşilor noştri.
32 De asemenea, când străinul care nu este din poporul Tău, Israel, va veni dintr-o ţară îndepărtată datorită Numelui Tău cel mare, a mâinii Tale cea tare şi a braţului Tău cel întins, deci când va veni şi se va ruga înspre această Casă, 33 ascultă din ceruri, tărâmul locuinţei Tale, şi dă-i acelui străin tot ceea ce-Ţi va cere, pentru ca toate popoarele pământului să-Ţi cunoască Numele, să se teamă de Tine aşa cum se teme poporul Tău, Israel, şi să ştie că Numele Tău este chemat peste această Casă, pe care am zidit-o eu.
34 Când poporul Tău va merge la război împotriva duşmanilor săi, acolo unde îl vei trimite, şi Ţi se va ruga cu mâinile îndreptate înspre cetatea aceasta, pe care ai ales-o Tu şi înspre Casa pe care am zidit-o pentru Numele Tău, 35 ascultă din ceruri rugăciunea lor şi cererea lor şi fă-le dreptate. 36 Când vor păcătui împotriva Ta – căci nu este om care să nu păcătuiască – şi, mâniindu-te pe ei, îi vei da pe mâna duşmanilor lor, care îi vor duce captivi într-o ţară îndepărtată sau apropiată, 37 dacă acolo, în ţara unde au fost luaţi captivi, îşi vor cerceta inimile, dacă se vor întoarce la Tine şi vor căuta bunăvoinţa Ta în ţara captivităţii lor, spunând: «Am păcătuit, am greşit şi am săvârşit răul!», 38 dacă de acolo, din ţara unde au fost luaţi captivi, se vor întoarce la Tine din toată inima lor şi din tot sufletul lor, dacă se vor ruga cu mâinile îndreptate înspre ţara lor, pe care le-ai dat-o strămoşilor lor, înspre cetatea pe care Tu ai ales-o şi înspre Casa pe care am zidit-o eu pentru Numele Tău, 39 atunci, ascultă din ceruri, tărâmul locuinţei Tale, rugăciunea lor şi cererile lor şi fă-le dreptate! Iartă poporul Tău, care a păcătuit faţă de Tine! 40 Acum, Dumnezeul meu, Te rog, lasă ca ochii Tăi să fie deschişi şi urechile Tale să ia aminte la rugăciunea făcută în locul acesta!
41 Acum, Doamne Dumnezeule, vino la locul Tău de odihnă, Tu şi Chivotul tăriei Tale! Lasă ca preoţii Tăi, Doamne Dumnezeule, să se îmbrace cu mântuirea, iar sfinţii Tăi să se bucure de bunătatea Ta! 42 Doamne, Dumnezeule, nu-Ţi întoarce faţa de la unsul Tău! Adu-Ţi aminte de promisiunile[e] făcute robului Tău David!“

2 Chronicles 6
New International Version
2 Chronicles 6
New International Version
6 Then Solomon said, “The Lord has said that he would dwell in a dark cloud;(A) 2 I have built a magnificent temple for you, a place for you to dwell forever.(B)”
3 While the whole assembly of Israel was standing there, the king turned around and blessed them. 4 Then he said:
“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who with his hands has fulfilled what he promised with his mouth to my father David. For he said, 5 ‘Since the day I brought my people out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city in any tribe of Israel to have a temple built so that my Name might be there, nor have I chosen anyone to be ruler over my people Israel. 6 But now I have chosen Jerusalem(C) for my Name(D) to be there, and I have chosen David(E) to rule my people Israel.’
7 “My father David had it in his heart(F) to build a temple for the Name of the Lord, the God of Israel. 8 But the Lord said to my father David, ‘You did well to have it in your heart to build a temple for my Name. 9 Nevertheless, you are not the one to build the temple, but your son, your own flesh and blood—he is the one who will build the temple for my Name.’
10 “The Lord has kept the promise he made. I have succeeded David my father and now I sit on the throne of Israel, just as the Lord promised, and I have built the temple for the Name of the Lord, the God of Israel. 11 There I have placed the ark, in which is the covenant(G) of the Lord that he made with the people of Israel.”
Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication(H)(I)
12 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in front of the whole assembly of Israel and spread out his hands. 13 Now he had made a bronze platform,(J) five cubits long, five cubits wide and three cubits high,[a] and had placed it in the center of the outer court. He stood on the platform and then knelt down(K) before the whole assembly of Israel and spread out his hands toward heaven. 14 He said:
“Lord, the God of Israel, there is no God like you(L) in heaven or on earth—you who keep your covenant of love(M) with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way. 15 You have kept your promise to your servant David my father; with your mouth you have promised(N) and with your hand you have fulfilled it—as it is today.
16 “Now, Lord, the God of Israel, keep for your servant David my father the promises you made to him when you said, ‘You shall never fail(O) to have a successor to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants are careful in all they do to walk before me according to my law,(P) as you have done.’ 17 And now, Lord, the God of Israel, let your word that you promised your servant David come true.
18 “But will God really dwell(Q) on earth with humans? The heavens,(R) even the highest heavens, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built! 19 Yet, Lord my God, give attention to your servant’s prayer and his plea for mercy. Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is praying in your presence. 20 May your eyes(S) be open toward this temple day and night, this place of which you said you would put your Name(T) there. May you hear(U) the prayer your servant prays toward this place. 21 Hear the supplications of your servant and of your people Israel when they pray toward this place. Hear from heaven, your dwelling place; and when you hear, forgive.(V)
22 “When anyone wrongs their neighbor and is required to take an oath(W) and they come and swear the oath before your altar in this temple, 23 then hear from heaven and act. Judge between your servants, condemning(X) the guilty and bringing down on their heads what they have done, and vindicating the innocent by treating them in accordance with their innocence.
24 “When your people Israel have been defeated(Y) by an enemy because they have sinned against you and when they turn back and give praise to your name, praying and making supplication before you in this temple, 25 then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their ancestors.
26 “When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain(Z) because your people have sinned against you, and when they pray toward this place and give praise to your name and turn from their sin because you have afflicted them, 27 then hear from heaven and forgive(AA) the sin of your servants, your people Israel. Teach them the right way to live, and send rain on the land you gave your people for an inheritance.
28 “When famine(AB) or plague comes to the land, or blight or mildew, locusts or grasshoppers, or when enemies besiege them in any of their cities, whatever disaster or disease may come, 29 and when a prayer or plea is made by anyone among your people Israel—being aware of their afflictions and pains, and spreading out their hands toward this temple— 30 then hear from heaven, your dwelling place. Forgive,(AC) and deal with everyone according to all they do, since you know their hearts (for you alone know the human heart),(AD) 31 so that they will fear you(AE) and walk in obedience to you all the time they live in the land you gave our ancestors.
32 “As for the foreigner who does not belong to your people Israel but has come(AF) from a distant land because of your great name and your mighty hand(AG) and your outstretched arm—when they come and pray toward this temple, 33 then hear from heaven, your dwelling place. Do whatever the foreigner(AH) asks of you, so that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you, as do your own people Israel, and may know that this house I have built bears your Name.
34 “When your people go to war against their enemies,(AI) wherever you send them, and when they pray(AJ) to you toward this city you have chosen and the temple I have built for your Name, 35 then hear from heaven their prayer and their plea, and uphold their cause.
36 “When they sin against you—for there is no one who does not sin(AK)—and you become angry with them and give them over to the enemy, who takes them captive(AL) to a land far away or near; 37 and if they have a change of heart(AM) in the land where they are held captive, and repent and plead with you in the land of their captivity and say, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong and acted wickedly’; 38 and if they turn back to you with all their heart and soul in the land of their captivity where they were taken, and pray toward the land you gave their ancestors, toward the city you have chosen and toward the temple I have built for your Name; 39 then from heaven, your dwelling place, hear their prayer and their pleas, and uphold their cause. And forgive(AN) your people, who have sinned against you.
40 “Now, my God, may your eyes be open and your ears attentive(AO) to the prayers offered in this place.
41 “Now arise,(AP) Lord God, and come to your resting place,(AQ)
you and the ark of your might.
May your priests,(AR) Lord God, be clothed with salvation,
may your faithful people rejoice in your goodness.(AS)
42 Lord God, do not reject your anointed one.(AT)
Remember the great love(AU) promised to David your servant.”

Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication
6 Then (A)Solomon spoke:
“The Lord said He would dwell in the (B)dark cloud.
2 I have surely built You an exalted house,
And (C)a place for You to dwell in forever.”
Solomon’s Speech upon Completion of the Work(D)
3 Then the king turned around and (E)blessed the whole assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing. 4 And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His hands what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, (F)saying, 5 ‘Since the day that I brought My people out of the land of Egypt, I have chosen no city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My name might be there, nor did I choose any man to be a ruler over My people Israel. 6 (G)Yet I have chosen Jerusalem, that My name may be there, and I (H)have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’ 7 Now (I)it was in the heart of my father David to build a [a]temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel. 8 But the Lord said to my father David, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a temple for My name, you did well in that it was in your heart. 9 Nevertheless you shall not build the temple, but your son who will come from your body, he shall build the temple for My (J)name.’ 10 So the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke, and I have filled the position of my father David, and (K)sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised; and I have built the temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel. 11 And there I have put the ark, (L)in which is the covenant of the Lord which He made with the children of Israel.”
Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication(M)
12 (N)Then [b]Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands 13 (for Solomon had made a bronze platform five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court; and he stood on it, knelt down on his knees before all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven); 14 and he said: “Lord God of Israel, (O)there is no God in heaven or on earth like You, who keep Your (P)covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts. 15 (Q)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. 16 Therefore, Lord God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, (R)‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, (S)only if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’ 17 And now, O Lord God of Israel, let Your word come true, which You have spoken to Your servant David.
18 “But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? (T)Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You. How much less this [c]temple which I have built! 19 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: 20 that Your eyes may be (U)open toward this temple day and night, toward the place where You said You would put Your name, that You may hear the prayer which Your servant makes (V)toward this place. 21 And may You hear the supplications of Your servant and of Your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Hear from heaven Your dwelling place, and when You hear, (W)forgive.
22 “If anyone sins against his neighbor, and is forced to take an (X)oath, and comes and takes an oath before Your altar in this temple, 23 then hear from heaven, and act, and judge Your servants, bringing retribution on the wicked by bringing his way on his own head, and justifying the righteous by giving him according to his (Y)righteousness.
24 “Or if Your people Israel are defeated before an (Z)enemy because they have sinned against You, and return and confess Your name, and pray and make supplication before You in this temple, 25 then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your people Israel, and bring them back to the land which You gave to them and their fathers.
26 “When the (AA)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, 27 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.
28 “When there (AB)is famine in the land, pestilence or blight or mildew, locusts or grasshoppers; when their enemies besiege them in the land of their cities; whatever plague or whatever (AC)sickness there is; 29 whatever prayer, whatever supplication is made by anyone, or by all Your people Israel, when each one knows his own burden and his own grief, and spreads out his hands to this temple: 30 then hear from heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive, and give to everyone according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for You alone (AD)know the (AE)hearts of the sons of men), 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.
32 “Moreover, concerning a foreigner, (AF)who is not of Your people Israel, but has come from a far country for the sake of Your great name and Your mighty hand and Your outstretched arm, when they come and pray in this temple; 33 then hear from 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 [d]this temple which I have built is called by Your name.
34 “When Your people go out to battle against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to You toward this city which You have chosen and the temple which I have built for Your name, 35 then hear from heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause.
36 “When they sin against You (for there is (AG)no one who does not sin), and You become angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, and they take them (AH)captive to a land far or near; 37 yet when they [e]come to themselves in the land where they were carried captive, and repent, and make supplication to You in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong, and have committed wickedness’; 38 and when they return to You with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have been carried captive, and pray toward their land which You gave to their fathers, the (AI)city which You have chosen, and toward the temple which I have built for Your name: 39 then hear from heaven Your dwelling place their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive Your people who have sinned against You. 40 Now, my God, I pray, let Your eyes be (AJ)open and let Your ears be attentive to the prayer made in this place.
41 “Now(AK) therefore,
Arise, O Lord God, to Your (AL)resting place,
You and the ark of Your strength.
Let Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation,
And let Your saints (AM)rejoice in goodness.
42 “O Lord God, do not turn away the face of Your Anointed;
(AN)Remember the mercies of Your servant David.”
