1 Kings 8Lexham English Bible (LEB) The Dedication of the Temple 8 At that time, Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes, and the leaders of the families of the Israelites before King Solomon, in order to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh from the city of David, that is, Zion. 2 All the men of Israel assembled before King Solomon at the festival in the month of Ethnaim, that is, the seventh month. 3 All the elders of Israel came, and the priests carried the ark. 4 So they brought up the ark of Yahweh and the tent of assembly and all of the holy vessels that were in the tent; the priests and the Levites brought them up. 5 King Solomon and all the assembly of Israel who were assembling with him in the presence of the ark were sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted nor numbered because of abundance. 6 The priests brought the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place in the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim, 7 for the cherubim were spreading their wings over the place of the ark. The cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles from above. 8 The poles were long, and 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 the outside, and they are there until this day. 9 There was not anything in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses had placed there at Horeb, where Yahweh made a covenant with the Israelites after they went out from the land of Egypt. 10 When the priests went out from the holy place, the cloud filled the house of Yahweh. 11 The priests were not able to stand to minister because of the presence of the cloud, for the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh. Solomon’s Proclamation to the Assembly of Israel 12 Then Solomon said, “Yahweh has said that he would dwell in the very thick cloud. 13 I have certainly built a lofty house for you, a place for you to live forever.” 14 Then the king turned his face around, and he blessed all of the assembly of Israel. (Now all the assembly of Israel was standing). 15 Then he said, “Blessed be Yahweh the God of Israel who has promised with his mouth to David my father and fulfilled by his oath, saying, 16 ‘From the day that I brought out my people Israel from Egypt I have not chosen a city from all the tribes of Israel to build a house where my name might be, but I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.’ 17 David my father desired to build a house for the name of Yahweh the God of Israel, 18 but Yahweh said to David my father, ‘Because you desired to build a house for my name, you did well in that it was within your heart. 19 However, you will not build the house, but your son who has come from your loins, he shall build the house for my name.’ 20 Yahweh has carried out his promise which he had made; I have risen in place of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel as Yahweh promised, and I have built the house for the name of Yahweh the God of Israel. 21 I have provided a place there for the ark, in which is the covenant which Yahweh made with our ancestors when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.” Solomon’s Prayer to Yahweh 22 Then Solomon stood before the altar of Yahweh in the presence of all of the assembly of Israel, and he spread out his hands to the heavens, 23 and he said, “O Yahweh, God of Israel, there is no god like you in the heavens above or on the earth beneath, keeping the covenant and the loyal love for your servants who are walking before you with all their heart. 24 You have kept for your servant David my father what you promised to him, and you have spoken with your mouth, and with your hand you have fulfilled it this very day. 25 So then, O Yahweh, God of Israel, keep for your servant David my father what you promised to him, saying, ‘For you, no man will be cut off from before me who will be sitting on the throne of Israel, if only your sons keep their ways to walk before me just as you have walked before me.’ 26 So then, O God of Israel, please let your word be confirmed which you have promised to your servant David my father. 27 For will God really dwell on the earth? Behold, the heavens and the heaven of heavens could not contain you! How could this house that I have built? 28 You must regard the prayer of your servant and his plea! O Yahweh my God, listen to the pleading and to the prayer that your servant is praying before you this day, 29 so that your eyes will be open to this house night and day, to the place which you said, ‘My name will be there,’ to hear the prayer that your servant prays toward this place. 30 You must listen to the plea of your servant and your people Israel which they pray toward this place; and you must hear from the place where you live, from heaven you must hear and you must forgive. 31 If a man sins against his neighbor and he pronounces an oath against him to curse him, and the curse comes before your altar in this house, 32 then you shall hear in heaven and you shall act and you shall judge your servant, to declare the wicked guilty by bringing his way upon his head and to declare the righteous innocent by rewarding him according to his righteousness. 33 When your people Israel are defeated before the enemy because they sinned against you, and when they turn to you and confess your name and pray and beg for mercy from you in this house, 34 then you shall hear in heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and you shall bring them back to the ground which you gave to their ancestors. 35 When you shut up the heavens so there is no rain because they have sinned against you, then they pray to this place and they confess your name and they return from their sin because you punished them, 36 then you shall hear in heaven and forgive the sin of your servants and your people Israel, for you will teach them the good way in which they should go, and you will give rain upon your land which you have given to your people as an inheritance. 37 If there should be in the land famine or disease, if there should be blight or mildew or locust or caterpillars, if it happens that his enemy lays siege against him in the land of his gates, if any plague or any disease, 38 any prayer or any plea which is offered by any person for all of your people Israel, who each knows the infestation of his own heart and spreads out his palms to this house, 39 then you shall hear in heaven the place of your dwelling, and you shall forgive and act and give to the man whose heart you know, according to all his ways, for you alone know the heart of all the sons of man. 40 Do these things so that they may fear you all the days that they live on the face of the land that you gave to our ancestors. 41 Also for the foreigner who is not from your people Israel, and he comes from a distant land because of your name, 42 (for they shall hear of your great name and your powerful hand and your outstretched arm), and he shall come and pray toward this house, 43 you shall hear in heaven, the place of your dwelling, and act according to all that the foreigner calls to you, so that all the peoples of the earth may know your name, to fear you as your people Israel, and to know that your name has been invoked over this house that I have built. 44 If your people go out to battle against his enemy in the way that you shall send them and they pray to Yahweh, toward the city which you have chosen and the house which I have built for your name, 45 then you shall hear in heaven their prayer and their plea, and you shall vindicate them. 46 “If they sin against you (for there is not a person who does not sin) and you are angry with them and you give them to an enemy and they take them captive to the land of the enemy far or near, 47 and then they return their heart in the land where they have been taken captive and they return and plead to you in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned and we did wrong. We acted wickedly,’ 48 if they return to you with all of their heart and with all of their soul in the land of their enemies who took them captive and they pray to you toward their land which you gave to their ancestors, the city that you have chosen and the house that you built for your name, 49 then you shall hear in heaven, the place of your dwelling, their prayer and their plea, and you shall vindicate them. 50 You shall forgive your people who sinned against you, even for all their transgressions which they committed against you. You shall give them compassion before their captors so that they may have compassion on them, 51 for they are your people and your inheritance whom you brought from Egypt from the middle of the smelter of iron. 52 O, that your eyes may be open to the plea of your servant and to the plea of your people Israel, to listen to them in all things when they call to you. 53 For you have separated them for yourself as an inheritance from all the peoples of the earth, as you promised through the hand of Moses your servant when you brought out our ancestors from Egypt, my Lord Yahweh!” Solomon Charges the People Israel 54 It happened that when Solomon finished praying to Yahweh all of the prayer and this plea, he got up from before the altar of Yahweh, from kneeling down on his knees with his palms outstretched to heaven. 55 He stood and blessed all of the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying, 56 “Blessed be Yahweh who gave a resting place to his people Israel. According to all that he promised, not one word has fallen from all of his promises concerning the good which he spoke through the hand of Moses his servant. 57 May Yahweh our God be with us as he was with our ancestors, and may he not leave us or abandon us, 58 to incline our hearts toward him, to walk in all his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his judgments which he commanded our ancestors. 59 Let these my words which I pleaded before Yahweh be near to Yahweh our God, by day and by night, to maintain the justice of his servant and the justice of his people Israel as each day requires 60 so that all of the people of the earth may know that Yahweh, he is God; there is none other. 61 Let your heart be completely with Yahweh our God by walking in his statutes, by keeping his commands as this day.” The Great Confirming Sacrifice 62 Then the king and all of Israel with him offered a sacrifice in the presence of Yahweh. 63 Solomon sacrificed the fellowship offerings which he offered to Yahweh: twenty-two thousand oxen and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep; and the king and all of the Israelites dedicated the house of Yahweh. 64 On that day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard before the house of Yahweh because he offered there the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings because the bronze altar that was in the presence of Yahweh was too small to hold the burnt offerings and the grain offerings and the fat of the fellowship offerings. 65 Solomon held the festival at that time and all of Israel with him, a great assembly from Lebo Hamath up to the wadi of Egypt before Yahweh our God, for seven days and seven days, a total of fourteen days. 66 On the eighth day, he sent the people away, and they blessed the king, and they went to their tents rejoicing and in good spirits because of all the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David his servant and to Israel his people.

2 इतिहास 6 Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) 6 तब सुलेमानले भने, “परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, ‘उहाँ अन्धकार मेघमा बस्नु हुने छ।’ 2 परमप्रभु, मैले तपाईंलाई बस्नका निम्ति एक मन्दिर निर्माण गरेको छु। यो एउटा उच्च मन्दिर हो, एक स्थान जहाँ तपाईं सदा सर्वदा रहनु हुनेछ।” सुलेमानको भाषण 3 राजा सुलेमान घुमे अनि त्यहाँ भेला भएका इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरूलाई आशीर्वाद दिए जो जती उनको अघि उभिरहेका थिए। 4 सुलेमानले भने, “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको स्तुति होस्। उहाँले मेरो पिता दाऊदसित बातचित गर्नुहुँदा जे प्रतिज्ञा गर्नु भएको थियो त्यो पूरा गरिदिनु भयो। परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो त्यो यो होः 5 ‘मैले इस्राएललाई धेरै अघि मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर ल्याएँ। अनि अहिले सम्म मैले मेरो नाउँमा मन्दिर निर्माण गर्ने स्थानका निम्ति इस्राएलका कुनै पनि कुल समूहको शहर मैले छानेको छैन्। मैले मेरा इस्राएलका मानिसहरू, मानिसहरूलाई अगुवाइ गर्ने व्यक्ति चुनेको छैन। 6 तर अहिले मेरो नाउँको निम्ति स्थानको रूपमा यरूशलेम चुनेको छु। अनि मैले मेरा इस्राएली मानिसहरूको अगुवाइका निम्ति दाऊदलाई चुनेको छु।’ 7 “मेरा पिता दाऊदले इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको नाउँमा एउटा मन्दिर निर्माण गर्न चाहेका थिए। 8 तर परमप्रभुले मेरा पितालाई भन्नुभयो, ‘दाऊद जब तैंले मेरो नाउँमा एउटा मन्दिर निर्माण गर्न चाहिस्, तैंले उत्तम गरिस्। 9 तर तैंले मन्दिर निर्माण गर्न सक्तैनस्। तर तेरो आफ्नो छोराले मेरो नाउँमा मन्दिर निर्माण गर्ने छ।’ 10 अहिले परमप्रभुले जे गर्छु भन्नु भएको थियो त्यही गर्नु भएको छ। म मेरा पिताको स्थानमा नयाँ राजा भएको छु। दाऊद मेरा पिता थिए। अहिले म इस्राएलको राजा भएको छु। यही नै परमप्रभुले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नु भएको थियो। अनि मैले इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको नाउँमा मन्दिर बनाएको छु। 11 मैले मन्दिरमा करारको सन्दूक राखेकोछु। कराको सन्दूक जहाँ छ त्यही परमप्रभुको करार राखिएको छ। परमप्रभुले यो करार इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसित सम्पन्न गरेका थिए।” सुलेमानको प्रार्थना 12-13 सुलेमान परमप्रभुको वेदी अघि उभिए। तिनी इस्राएलका समस्त मानिसहरूको सामुन्ने उभिएका थिए जो एक साथ भेला भएका थिए। त्यस पछि सुलेमानले आफ्ना हात पाखुराहरू फैलाए। सुलेमानले 5 हात लामो, 5 हात चौंडा अनि 3 हात उच्च काँसाको मञ्च बनाएका थिए अनि त्यसलाई बाहिरको आँगनको माझमा राखिएको थियो। तब तिनी मञ्चमा उभिए अनि इस्राएलका समस्त मानिसहरू अघि घुँडा टेके, जो त्यहाँ एकत्रित भएका थिए। सुलेमानले आफ्ना हातहरू आकाश तिर फैलाए। 14 सुलेमानले भनेः “इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, तपाईं जस्तो परमेश्वर स्वर्ग वा पृथ्वीमा कोही छैन। तपाईंले तपाईंको प्रेम अनि दयाको करार राख्नु हुन्छ। तपाईंले तपाईंका सेवकहरूसित गर्नु भएको करारको पालन गर्नुहुन्छ, यदि तिनीहरू सम्पूर्ण हृदयले ठीकसित बस्छन् अनि तपाईंको आज्ञा पालन गर्छन् भने। 15 तपाईंले तपाईंका सेवक दाऊदसित गर्नु भएको प्रतिज्ञा पुरा गर्नुभयो। दाऊद मेरा पिता थिए। तपाईंले तपाईंको मुखारबृन्दबाट प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभयो। आज तपाईंले त्यो प्रतिज्ञालाई तपाईंका हातद्वारा सत्य तुल्याउनु भयो। 16 अब, परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर तपाईंको सेवक मेरा पिता दाऊद प्रतिको तपाईंको प्रतिज्ञा राखिदिनु होस्। तपाईंले गर्नु भएको प्रतिज्ञा यही होः तपाईंले भन्नुभयो, ‘दाऊद, तेरो परिवारबाट मेरो सामुन्ने इस्राएलको सिंहासनमा बसाउँनका निम्ति एक व्यक्ति पाउनु कहिले असफल हुने छैनस्। यो लगातार भइरहनेछ जबसम्म तिम्रा सन्तानहरूले मेरो आज्ञाहरू पच्छ्याउँछन्। तिनीहरूले मेरो नियम त्यस्तै प्रकारले पालन गर्नु पर्ने छ जसरी तैंले मेरो व्यवस्था पालन गरेको छस्।’ 17 अब इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, तपाईंको प्रतिज्ञा सत्य तुल्याइ दिनुहोस्। तपाईंले यो प्रतिज्ञा तपाईंको सेवक दाऊदलाई दिनु भएको थियो। 18 “तर हामी जान्दछौं कि, परमेश्वर, तपाईं वास्तवमा पृथ्वीमा मानिसहरूसाथ बस्नु हुन्न। स्वर्ग अनि सर्वोच्च स्वर्गले पनि तपाईंलाई आफूमा अँटाउँने क्षमता राख्न सक्तैन। अनि हामी जान्दछौं। कि मैले बनाएको यो मन्दिरले तपाईंलाई अँटाउँन सक्तैन। 19 तर दया गरेर परमप्रभु परमेश्वर मैले गरेको प्रार्थना प्रति अनि मैले दयाको याचना गरेको समयमा ध्यान दिनुहोस्। दया गरेर मेरो खुशीको चिच्याहट र तपाईंमा चढाइएको मेरो प्रार्थना सुनीदिनुहोस्। म तपाईंको सेवक हुँ। 20 म यो प्रार्थना गर्छु कि तपाईंको दृष्टि यो मन्दिरलाई हेर्न दिन अनि रात खुला राख्नु हुनेछ। तपाईंले भन्नु भएको थियो कि तपाईंले तपाईंको नाउँ यस स्थानमा राख्नु हुनेछ। तपाईंले मेरो प्रार्थना सुनिदिनु हुनेछ जब म यो मन्दिरलाई हेरेर प्रार्थना गर्नेछु। 21 मेरा प्रार्थना अनि तपाईंका इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले गरेका प्रार्थना सुनिदिनुहोस्। हाम्रा प्रार्थना सुनिदिनुहोस् जब हामी यो मन्दिर तिर हेर्दै प्रार्थना गर्दछौं। तपाईं स्वर्गमा जहाँ रहनु हुन्छ त्यहींबाट सुनि दिनुहोस्। जब तपाईंले हाम्रा प्रार्थना सुन्नु हुन्छ, हामीलाई क्षमा प्रदान गर्नु होस्। 22 “कुनै व्यक्ति कुनै अन्य मानिस प्रति केही नराम्रो गरेर दोषी हुन सक्छ। जब त्यसो हुन्छ तब दोषी व्यक्तिले उ निर्दोष छ भनी प्रतिज्ञा गर्न तपाईंको नाउँ प्रयोग गर्नुपर्ने छ। जब उ प्रतिज्ञा गर्नका निम्ति मन्दिरमा तपाईंको वेदी समक्ष आउँछ। 23 तब स्वर्गबाट सुनिदिनुहोस्। तपाईंले सेवकको फैसला गरेर कार्यान्वित गरिदिनुहोस्। नराम्रा व्यक्तिलाई दण्ड दिनुहोस् अनि उसलाई त्यस्तै कष्ट भोगाउनुहोस् जस्तो कष्ट उसले अन्यलाई भोगाएको थियो। यो सिद्ध गरिदिनुहोस कि जुन व्यक्तिले सही कार्य गरेको छ उ निर्दोष छ। 24 “यदि शत्रुले तपाईंका इस्राएली मानिसहरूलाई परास्त तुल्याउन सक्छन किनभने तपाईंका मानिसहरूले तपाईंको विरूद्ध पाप गरेका छन्। तब, यदि तिनीहरू तपाईंको नाउँमा दोषहरूलाई स्वीकार गर्दै तपाईं कहाँ फर्की आएर अनि यदि तिनीहरूले यो मन्दिरमा तपाईंलाई प्रार्थना गरी क्षमा याचना माग्छ भने। 25 तब स्वर्गबाट सुनि दिनुहोस् अनि तपाईंका इस्राएली मानिसहरूको पापलाई क्षमा गरी दिनुहोस्। तिनीहरूलाई त्यस देशमा फर्काइ पठाउनु होस् जुन तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई अनि तिनीहरूको पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनु भएको थियो। 26 “केही समय आकाश बन्द हुन सक्छ यस्तो प्रकारले पानी पर्दैन किनभने इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तपाईंको विरूद्ध पाप गरे। यदि यसो भए इस्राएका मानिसहरूले पश्चाताप गर्छन् अनि यो मन्दिरलाई हेर्दै प्रार्थना गर्छन्। तपाईंको नाउँमा दोष स्वीकार गर्छन् अनि तिनीहरूले पाप गर्न छोड्छन्, किनभने तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिनु हुँदैछ। 27 तब स्वर्गबाट सुनिदिनुहोस्। सुन्नुहोस् अनि तिनीहरूको पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस्। इस्राएलका मानिसहरू तपाईंका सेवक हुन्। तब, तिनीहरूलाई जिउनु पर्ने उचित मार्ग सिकाइ दिनुहोस्। अनि तपाईंको देशमा बर्षा पठाइ दिनुहोस्। त्यो तपाईंले तपाईंका मानिसहरूलाई दिनु भएको देश हो। 28 “देशमा अनिकाल हुन वा महामारी र फसलको बिरामी वा ढुसीपर्ने रोग वा सलह फटेङ्ग्राहरू आउन सक्छन् र यदि शत्रुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शहरमा आक्रमण गर्ला र इस्राएलमा कुनै किसिमको बिरामी होला, 29 अनि त्यस बेला कुनै पनि तपाईंका इस्राएलका मानिसले-प्रत्येक व्यक्तिले आफ्नो कष्ट अनि पीढा जानेर-अनि यदि त्यस व्यक्तिले आफ्नो हात अनि पाखुरा यो मन्दिरलाई हेर्दै फैलाउला। 30 त्यसबेला स्वर्गबाट सुनिदिनुहोस्। स्वर्ग त्यो स्थान हो जहाँ तपाईं बस्नु हुन्छ। सुन्नुहोस् अनि क्षमा प्रदान गरिदिनुहोस्। प्रत्येक व्यक्तिलाई त्यही दिनुहोस् जो उसले पाउनु पर्छ, किनभने तपाईंले जान्नु हुन्छ प्रत्येक व्यक्तिको हृदयमा के छ। तपाईं मात्र जान्नु हुन्छ एक व्यक्तिको हृदयमा के छ। 31 तब मानिसहरू डराउने छन् अनि तपाईंले हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनु भएको देशमा बसुन्जेल तपाईंको आज्ञा पालन गर्ने छन्। 32 “कोही यस्तो परदेशी हुन सक्छ जो तपाईंका इस्राएलका मानिसहरू मध्ये एक होइन, तर जो अति टाढा भूमिबाट यहाँ आएका छन्। उसले तपाईंको महान नाउँ, तपाईंको विशाल शक्तिले तपाईंले मानिसहरूलाई बचाउँन सक्नु हुन्छ भनि सुने र आएको हुनसक्छ जब आउँछन् अनि यो मन्दिरलाई हेरेर प्रार्थना गर्छन्। 33 तब स्वर्गमा जहाँ तपाईं बस्नु हुन्छ, परदेशीको कुरा सुनिदिनुहोस् अनि उसको प्रार्थनाको उत्तर दिनुहोस्। तब पृथ्वीका सबै मानिसहरूले तपाईंको नाउँ जान्ने छन्। इस्राएली मानिसहरूले तपाईंको सम्मान गरे झैं तपाईंको सम्मान गर्ने छन्। पृथ्वीका सबै मानिसहरूले जान्नेछन् कि जुन मन्दिर मैले बनाएँ त्यो तपाईंको नाउँद्वारा चिनिन्छ। 34 “तपाईंले तपाईंका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूसित लड्नका निम्ति कुनै स्थानमा पठाउनु हुनेछ। तिनीहरूले तपाईंले छान्नु भएको यो शहर तिर अनि मैले तपाईंको नाउँमा निर्माण गरेको यो मन्दिर तिर हेरेर तपाईंको प्रार्थना गर्नेछन्। 35 कृपा पूर्वक स्वर्गमा तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना सुनिदिनुहोस्। तिनीहरूलाई सुनिदिनुहोस् जब तिनीहरू सहायताका निम्ति याचना गर्छन्। अनि तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गरिदिनुहोस्। 36 “मानिसहरूले तपाईंको विरूद्ध पाप गर्ने छन् पाप नगर्ने मानिस कोही छैनन्। अनि तपाईं तिनीहरू प्रति क्रोधित बन्नुहुन्छ। तपाईंले कुनै शत्रुद्वारा तिनीहरूलाई परास्त गरि दिनु हुनेछ, र कब्जामा पर्न दिनुहुनेछ अनि अति टाढ वा नजिकको देशमा जान वाध्य तुल्याउनु हुनेछ। 37 तर त्यसबेला तिनीहरूले आफ्ना विचार बदल्ने छन् अनि तपाईं सित याचना गर्नेछन् जब तिनीहरू त्यस देशमा रहेका हुन्छन् जहाँ तिनीहरू कैदी छन्। तिनीहरूले भन्ने छन्, ‘हामीले पाप गरेका छौं। हामीले गल्ती गरेका छौं अनि हामीले दुष्टता पूर्वक काम गरेका छौं।’ 38 अनि तिनीहरू तपाईं कहाँ त्यस देशबाट आफ्ना पूर्ण हृदय र मन सहित फर्कि आउने छन्। अनि तिनीहरूले तिनीहरूको देश, तपाईंले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनु भएको देशतिर अनि तपाईंले छान्नु भएको शहरतिर हेरेर प्रार्थना गर्ने छन्। अनि तिनीहरूले मैले तपाईंको नाउँमा निर्माण गरेको मन्दिर तिर फर्केर प्रार्थना गर्नेछन्। 39 जब यसो हुन्छ स्वर्गबाट सुनि दिनुहोस्। स्वर्ग तपाईंको बास स्थान हो। तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना स्वीकार गरि दिनुहोस् जब तिनीहरू सहायताका निम्ति याचना गर्छन्। अनि तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गरिदिनुहोस्। तपाईंका मानिसहरूलाई क्षमा गरि दिनुहोस्। जसले तपाईंको विरूद्ध पाप गरेका छन्। 40 अब, मेरा परमेश्वर, म तपाईंसँग याचना गर्छु, तपाईंको आँखा अनि तपाईंको कान खोली दिनुहोस्। हामीले यस स्थानमा गरेका प्रार्थनाहरू सुनिदिनुहोस् अनि त्यस प्रति ध्यान दिनुहोस्। 41 “अब, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, उठ्नु होस्, अनि तपाईंको विशेष स्थानमा, करारको सन्दूकमा आउनु होस् जसले तपाईंको पराक्रम प्रर्दशित गर्छ। तपाईंका पूजाहारीहरूले मुक्ति धारण गर्न सकून्। तपाईंका साँच्चा अनुयायीहरू यी असल कुराहरूमा खुशी होऊन्। 42 हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, अभिषेक भएको तपाईंका राजालाई स्वीकार गर्नुहोस्। तपाईंको अचूक प्रेमले सेवक दाऊदलाई सम्झना गर्नुहोस्।”
