5 Fra den Dag jeg førte mit Folk ud af Ægypten, har jeg ikke udvalgt nogen By i nogen af Israels Stammer, hvor man skulde bygge et Hus til Bolig for mit Navn, og jeg har ikke udvalgt nogen Mand til at være Hersker over mit Folk Israel;
5 ‘Since the day that I brought My people from the land of Egypt, I did not choose a city out of all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house that My name might be there, nor did I choose any man for a leader over My people Israel;
10 Nu har HERREN opfyldt det Ord, han talede, og jeg er trådt i min Fader Davids Sted og sidder på Israels Trone, som HERREN sagde, og jeg har bygget HERRENs, Israels Guds, Navn Huset;
10 Now the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke; for I have risen in the place of my father David 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.
13 Salomo havde nemlig ladet lave en fem Alen lang, fem Alen bred og tre Alen høj Talerstol af Hobber og stillet den op midt i Gården; på den trådte han op og kastede sig på Knæ foran hele Israels Forsamling, udbredte sine Hænder mod Himmelen
13 Now 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 on his knees in the presence of all the assembly of Israel and spread out his hands toward heaven.
14 og sagde: "HERRE, Israels Gud, der er ingen Gud som du i Himmelen og på Jorden, du, som holder fast ved din Pagt og din Miskundhed mod dine Tjenere, når de af hele deres Hjerte vandrer for dit Åsyn,
14 He said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, there is no god like You in heaven or on earth, keeping covenant and showing lovingkindness to Your servants who walk before You with all their heart;
15 du, som har holdt, hvad du lovede din Tjener, min Fader David, og i Dag opfyldt med din Hånd, hvad du talede med din Mund.
15 who has kept with Your servant David, my father, that which You have promised him; indeed You have spoken with Your mouth and have fulfilled it with Your hand, as it is this day.
16 Så hold da nu, HERRE, Israels Gud, hvad du lovede din Tjener, min Fader David, da du sagde: En Efterfølger skal aldrig fattes dig for mit Åsyn til at sidde på Israels Trone, når kun dine Sønner vil tage Vare på deres Vej og vandre i min Lov, som du har vandret for mit Åsyn!
16 Now therefore, O Lord, the God of Israel, keep with Your servant David, my father, that which You have promised him, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take heed to their way, to walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’
18 Men kao Gud da virkelig bo blandt Menneskene på Jorden? Nej visselig, Himlene, ja Himlenes Himle kan ikke rumme dig, langt mindre dette Hus, som jeg har bygget!
18 “But will God indeed dwell with mankind on the earth? Behold, heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built.
20 lad dine Øjne være åbne over dette Hus både Dag og Nat, over det Sted, hvor du har sagt, du vilde stedfæste dit Navn, så du hører den Bøn, din Tjener opsender, vendt mod dette Sted!
20 that Your eye may be open toward this house day and night, toward the place of which You have said that You would put Your name there, to listen to the prayer which Your servant shall pray toward this place.
21 Og hør den Bøn, dinjener og dit Folk Israel opsender, vendt mod dette Sted; du høre den der, hvor du bor, i Himmelen, du høre og tilgive!
21 Listen to the supplications of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place; hear from Your dwelling place, from heaven; hear and forgive.
23 så høre du det i Himmelen og gøre det og dømme dine Tjenere imellem, så du gengælder den skyldige og lader hans Gerning komme overhans Hoved og frikender den uskyldige og gør med ham efter hans Uskyld.
23 then hear from heaven and act and judge Your servants, punishing the wicked by bringing his way on his own head and justifying the righteous by giving him according to his righteousness.
24 Når dit Folk Israel tvinges til at fly for en Fjende, fordi de synder imod dig, og de så omvender sig og bekender dit Navn og opsender Bønner og Begæringer for dit Åsyn i dette Hus,
24 “If Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your name, and pray and make supplication before You in this house,
26 Når Himmelen lukkes, så Regnen udebliver, fordi de synder imod dig, og de så beder, vendt mod dette Sted, og bekender dit Navn og omvender sig fra deres Synd, fordi du revser dem,
26 “When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your name, and turn from their sin when You afflict them;
27 så høre du det i Himmelen og tilgive din Tjeners og dit Folk Israels Synd, ja du vise dem den gode Vej, de skal vandre, og lade det regne i dit Land, som du gav dit Folk i Eje.
27 then hear in heaven and forgive the sin of Your servants and Your people Israel, indeed, 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.
28 Når der kommer Hungersnød i Landet, når der kommer Pest, når der kommer Hornbrand og Rust, Græshopper og Ædere, når Fjenden belejrer Folket i en af dets Byer, når alskens Plage og Sot indtræffer
28 “If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight or mildew, if there is locust or grasshopper, if their enemies besiege them in the land of their cities, whatever plague or whatever sickness there is,
29 enhver Bøn, enhver Begæring, hvem den end kommer fra i hele dit Folk Israel, når de føler deres Plage og Smerte og udbreder Hænderne mod dette Hus,
29 whatever prayer or supplication is made by any man or by all Your people Israel, each knowing his own affliction and his own pain, and spreading his hands toward this house,
30 den høre du i Himmelen, der, hvor du bor, og tilgive, idet du gengælder enhver hans Færd, fordi du kender hans Hjerte, thi du alene kender Menneskebørnenes Hjerter,
30 then hear from heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive, and render to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know for You alone know the hearts of the sons of men,
32 Selv den fremmede, der ikke hører til dit Folk Israel, men kommer fra et fjernt Land for dit store Navns, din stærke Hånds og din udstrakte Arms Skyld, når de kommer og beder, vendt mod dette Hus,
32 “Also concerning the foreigner who is not from 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,
33 da børe du det i Himmelen, der. hvor du bor, og da gøre du efter alt, hvad den fremmede råber til dig om, for at alle Jordens Folkeslag må lære dit Navn at kende og frygte dig ligesom dit Folk Israel og erkende, at dit Navn er nævnet over dette Hus, som jeg har bygget.
33 then hear from heaven, from Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You, in order 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.
34 Når dit Folk drager i Krig mod sine Fjender, hvor du end sender dem hen, og de beder til dig, vendt mod den By, du har udvalgt, og det Hus, jeg har bygget dit Navn,
34 “When Your people go out to battle against their enemies, by whatever way You shall send them, and they pray to You toward this city which You have chosen and the house which I have built for Your name,
36 Når de synder imod dig - thi der er intet Menneske, som ikke synder - og du vredes på dem og giver dem i Fjendens Magt, og Sejrherrerne fører dem fangne til et andet Land, det være sig fjernt eller nær,
36 “When they sin against You (for there is no man who does not sin) and You are angry with them and deliver them to an enemy, so that they take them away captive to a land far off or near,
37 og de så går i sig selv i det Land, de er bortført til, og omvender sig og råber til dig i deres Landflygtigheds Land og siger: Vi har syndet, handlet ilde og været ugudelige!
37 if they take thought in the land where they are taken captive, and repent and make supplication to You in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have committed iniquity and have acted wickedly’;
38 når de omvender sig til dig al hele deres Hjerte og af hele deres Sjæl i Sejrherrernes Land, som de bortførtes til, og de beder, vendt mod deres Land, som du gav deres Fædre, mod den By, du har udvalgt, og det Hus, jeg har bygget dit Navn -
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 have given to their fathers and the city which You have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for Your name,
39 så høre du i Himmelen, der, hvor du bor, deres Bøn og Begæring og skaffe dem deres Ret, og du tilgive dit Folk, hvad de syndede imod dig!
39 then hear from heaven, from Your dwelling place, their prayer and supplications, and maintain their cause and forgive Your people who have sinned against You.
41 bryd op da, Gud HERRE, til dit Hvilested, du selv og din Vældes Ark! Dine Præster, Gud HERRE, være iklædt Frelse, dine fromme glæde sig ved dine Goder!
41 “Now therefore arise, O Lord God, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your might; let Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation and let Your godly ones rejoice in what is good.
