1 Mbiri 29
1 Kenaka, mfumu Davide inati kwa gulu lonse: “Mwana wanga Solomoni amene Mulungu wamusankha ndi wamngʼono ndipo sadziwa zambiri. Ntchitoyi ndi yayikulu chifukwa nyumba yaufumuyi si ya munthu, koma ndi ya Yehova Mulungu.
And David the king said to all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom the Lord has chosen, [is] young and tender, and the work [is] great; for [it is] not for man, but for the Lord God.
2 Ine ndapereka ku ntchito ya Nyumba ya Mulungu zinthu zanga zonse, golide wopangira zinthu zagolide, siliva wopangira zinthu zasiliva ndi zitsulo zopangira zinthu zazitsulo, mkuwa wopangira zinthu zamkuwa ndi matabwa opangira zinthu zamatabwa komanso miyala yokongola ya onikisi yokongoletsera, miyala ya maonekedwe osiyanasiyana, ndi miyala yonse yosalala ndi miyala ya marabulo, zonsezi ndapereka zochuluka.
I have prepared according to all [my] might for the house of my God gold, silver, brass, iron, wood, onyx stones, and costly and variegated stones for setting, and every precious stone, and much Parian [marble].
3 Kupatulapo izi, ine modzipereka ku Nyumba ya Mulungu wanga, tsopano ndikupereka chuma changachanga cha golide ndi siliva ku Nyumba ya Mulungu wanga, kuwonjezera pa zimene ndapereka ku ntchito ya Nyumba ya Mulungu woyerayu:
And still farther, because I took pleasure in the house of my God, I have gold and silver which I have procured for myself, and, behold, I have given them to the house of my God over and above, beyond what I have prepared for the holy house.
4 Matani 100 agolide (golide wa ku Ofiri) ndi matani 240 a siliva woyengeka bwino wokutira makoma a nyumba,
Three thousand talents of gold of Suphir, and seven thousand talents of fine silver, for the overlaying of the walls of the sanctuary:
5 zinthu zagolide ndi zinthu zasiliva, ndiponso zinthu zonse zimene anthu aluso adzagwiritse ntchito. Tsopano ndani amene akufuna kudzipatulira yekha kwa Yehova lero?”
[for you to use] the gold for [things of] gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for every work by the hand of the artificers. And who is willing to dedicate himself in work this day for the Lord?
6 Tsono atsogoleri a mabanja, akuluakulu a mafuko a Israeli, olamulira asilikali 1,000, ndi olamulira asilikali 100, ndiponso akuluakulu onse amene amayangʼanira ntchito ya mfumu anapereka mwaufulu.
Then the heads of families, and the princes of the children of Israel, and the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, and the overseers of the works, and the king's builders, offered willingly.
7 Iwo anapereka ku ntchito ya Nyumba ya Mulungu matani 170 a golide, matani 340 a siliva, matani 620 a mkuwa ndi matani 3,400 a chitsulo.
And they gave for the works of the house of the Lord five thousand talents of gold, and ten thousand gold [pieces], and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron.
8 Aliyense amene anali ndi miyala yokongola anayipereka ku nyumba yosungiramo chuma cha Nyumba ya Yehova ndipo amene ankayangʼanira anali Yehieli Mgeresoni.
And they who had [precious] stone, gave it into the treasuries of the house of the Lord by the hand of Jeiel the Gedsonite.
9 Anthu anakondwa chifukwa cha kupereka mwaufulu kwa atsogoleri awo, pakuti anapereka kwa Yehova mwaufulu ndiponso ndi mtima wonse. Nayenso mfumu Davide anakondwera kwambiri.
And the people rejoiced because of the willingness, for they offered willingly to the Lord with a full heart: and king David rejoiced greatly.
10 Davide anatamanda Yehova pamaso pa gulu lonse, ponena kuti, “Mutamandidwe Inu Yehova Mulungu wa kholo lathu Israeli kuchokera muyaya mpaka muyaya.
And king David blessed the Lord before the congregation, saying, Blessed are you, O Lord God of Israel, our Father, from everlasting and to everlasting.
11 Wanu, Inu Yehova ndi ukulu ndi mphamvu, ulemerero ndiponso ufumu ndi kukongola. Pakuti zinthu zonse zakumwamba ndi pa dziko lapansi ndi zanu. Wanu, Inu Yehova ndi ufumu; Inu ndinu wokwezeka ndipo ndinu mtsogoleri wa zonse.
Your, O Lord, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the might: for you are Lord of all things that are in heaven and upon the earth: before your face every king and nation is troubled.
12 Chuma ndi ulemu zimachokera kwa Inu; Inu ndinu wolamulira zinthu zonse. Mʼdzanja lanu muli nyonga ndi mphamvu, kukweza ndi kupereka nyonga kwa onse.
From you [come] wealth and glory: you, O Lord, rule over all, the Lord of all dominion, and in your hand [is] strength and rule; and [you are] almighty with your hand to increase and establish all things.
13 Tsopano Mulungu wathu, ife tikukuthokozani ndi kutamanda dzina lanu laulemerero.
And now, Lord, we give thanks to you, and praise your glorious name.
14 “Koma ine ndine yani, ndipo anthu anga ndani, kuti tikupatsani mowolowamanja motere? Zinthu zonse zimachokera kwa Inu, ndipo ife takupatsani zomwe zimachokera mʼdzanja lanu.
But who am I, and what [is] my people, that we have been able to be thus forward [in offering] to you? for all things [are] your, and of your own have we given you,
15 Ife ndife anthu osadziwika ndiponso alendo pamaso panu, monga analili makolo athu. Masiku anthu pa dziko lapansi ali ngati chithunzithunzi, wopanda chiyembekezo.
for we are strangers before you, and sojourners, as all our fathers [were]: our days upon the earth [are] as a shadow, and there is no remaining.
16 Inu Yehova Mulungu wathu, zinthu zonse zimene tapereka kumangira Nyumba yanu zachokera mʼdzanja lanu ndipo zonsezi ndi zanu.
O Lord our God, as for all this abundance which I have prepared that a house should be built to your holy name, it is of your hand, and all [is] your.
17 Mulungu wanga, ine ndikudziwa kuti mumayesa mtima ndipo mumakondwera ndi anthu angwiro. Zinthu zonsezi ndapereka mwaufulu ndi cholinga chabwino. Ndipo tsopano ndaona ndi chimwemwe momwe anthu anu amene ali pano akuperekera mwaufulu kwa Inu.
And I know, Lord, that you are he that searches the hearts, and you love righteousness. I have willingly offered all these things in simplicity of heart; and now I have seen with joy your people here present, willingly offering to you.
18 Inu Yehova Mulungu wa makolo athu Abrahamu, Isake ndi Israeli, mukhazikitse chofuna ichi mʼmitima ya anthu anu kwamuyaya, ndipo mukhazikitse mtima wokhulupirika kwa Inu.
O Lord God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, preserve these things in the thought of the heart of your people for ever, and direct their hearts to you.
19 Ndipo mumupatse mwana wanga Solomoni mtima wodzipereka kwathunthu kwa Inu kuti asunge malamulo anu, zofuna ndi malangizo anu. Achite chilichonse pomanga nyumba yaufumu imene ine ndayipezera zofunika zonse.”
And to Solomon my son give a good heart, to perform your commandments, and [to observe] your testimonies, and your ordinances, and to accomplish the building of your house.
20 Kenaka mfumu Davide inati kwa gulu lonse, “Tamandani Yehova Mulungu wanu.” Kotero onse anatamanda Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo ndipo anawerama pansi ndi kugona chafufumimba pamaso pa Yehova ndi mfumu.
And David said to the whole congregation, Bless you the Lord our God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and they bowed the knee and worshipped the Lord, and [did obeisance] to the king.
21 Mmawa mwake anthu anapereka nsembe zosiyanasiyana ndi nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova; ngʼombe zamphongo 1,000, nkhosa zamphongo 1,000 ndi ana ankhosa 1,000, pamodzi ndi nsembe yachakumwa ndi nsembe zina zambiri zoperekera Aisraeli onse.
And David sacrificed to the Lord, and offered up whole burnt offerings to the Lord on the morrow after the first day, a thousand calves, a thousand rams, a thousand lambs, and their drink-offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.
22 Tsiku limeneli, iwo anadya ndi kumwa mosangalala pamaso pa Yehova ndipo anavomereza Solomoni mwana wa Davide kukhala mfumu yawo kachiwiri. Anamudzoza pamaso pa Yehova kukhala wolamulira wawo ndipo Zadoki anadzozedwa kukhala wansembe.
And they ate and drank joyfully that day before the Lord: and they made Solomon the son of David king a second time, and anointed him king before the Lord, and Sadoc to the priesthood.
23 Ndipo Solomoni ankakhala pa mpando waufumu wa Yehova monga mfumu mʼmalo mwa Davide abambo ake. Iye analemera ndipo Aisraeli onse ankamumvera.
And Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David, and was highly honored; and all Israel obeyed him.
24 Akuluakulu onse a ankhondo ndi anthu amphamvu, pamodzinso ndi ana onse aamuna a mfumu Davide, analonjeza kumvera mfumu Solomoni.
The princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons of king David his father, were subject to him.
25 Yehova anamukweza kwambiri Solomoni pamaso pa Aisraeli onse ndi kumupatsa ulemerero waufumu umene sunapatsidwepo kwa mfumu ina iliyonse ya Israeli.
And the Lord magnified Solomon over all Israel, and gave him royal glory, such as was not upon any king before him.
26 Davide mwana wa Yese anali mfumu ya Aisraeli onse.
And David the son of Jessae reigned over Israel forty years;
27 Iye analamulira Israeli kwa zaka makumi anayi; zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri ali ku Hebroni ndi zaka 33 ali ku Yerusalemu.
seven years in Chebron, and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
28 Iye anamwalira atakalamba kwambiri, atakhala ndi moyo wautali, chuma ndi ulemu. Solomoni mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
And he died in a good old age, full of days, in wealth, and glory: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.
29 Tsono zonse zimene mfumu Davide anachita, kuyambira pachiyambi mpaka pa mapeto, zalembedwa mʼbuku la mneneri Samueli, mʼbuku la mneneri Natani ndi mʼbuku la mneneri Gadi,
And the rest of the acts of David, the former and the latter, are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,
30 pamodzi ndi tsatanetsatane wa mbiri ya ulamuliro wake ndi mphamvu zake, ndi zonse zomwe zinamuzungulira iye ndi Israeli ndiponso mafumu a mayiko ena onse.
concerning all his reign, and his power, and the times which went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the earth.
