1 Hiramu mfumu ya ku Turo atamva kuti Solomoni wadzozedwa kukhala mfumu mʼmalo mwa abambo ake Davide, anatumiza akazembe ake kwa Solomoni, chifukwa mfumu Hiramu inali pa ubale wabwino ndi Davide nthawi zonse.
Awo Kiramu kabaka w’e Ttuulo bwe yawulira nga Sulemaani bamufuseeko amafuta okuba kabaka, ng’asikidde kitaawe Dawudi, n’atuma ababaka be eri Sulemaani, kubanga yali mukwano gwa Dawudi.
2 Solomoni anabweza mawu awa kwa Hiramu:
Sulemaani n’atumira Kiramu ng’ayogera nti,
3 “Inu mukudziwa kuti chifukwa cha nkhondo zimene zinkachokera ku mbali zonse kulimbana ndi abambo anga, iwo sanathe kumangira Nyumba Yehova Mulungu wawo, mpaka Yehova atawayika adani awo pansi pa ulamuliro wawo.
“Omanyi nti, Olw’entalo ennyingi ezeetooloola Dawudi kitange, teyasobola kuzimbira linnya lya Mukama Katonda we yeekaalu, okutuusa Mukama lwe yamala okuteeka abalabe be wansi w’ebigere bye.
4 Koma tsopano Yehova Mulungu wanga wandipatsa mtendere mbali zonse za dziko ndipo ndilibe mdani kapena chovuta chilichonse.
Naye kaakano Mukama Katonda wange awadde Isirayiri yonna emirembe ku njuyi zonna, era tewakyali mulabe wadde akabi ak’engeri yonna.
5 Choncho ine ndikufuna kumangira nyumba Yehova Mulungu wanga, monga momwe Iye anawuzira abambo anga Davide kuti, ‘Mwana wako amene ndidzamukhazike pa mpando waufumu mʼmalo mwako ndiye adzandimangire Nyumba.’
Era, laba, nsuubira okuzimbira Erinnya lya Mukama Katonda wange yeekaalu, nga Mukama bwe yagamba Dawudi kitange, bwe yayogera nti, ‘Mutabani wo gwe nditeeka ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka mu kifo kyo, yalizimbira Erinnya lyange yeekaalu.’
6 “Choncho lamulani kuti andidulire mikungudza ya ku Lebanoni. Anthu anga adzagwira ntchito imeneyo pamodzi ndi anthu anuwo, ndipo ine ndidzalipira anthu anuwo malipiro amene inu mungakhazikitse. Inu mukudziwa kuti ife tilibe anthu aluso locheka matabwa monga Asidoni.”
“Noolwekyo lagira basajja bo bantemere emivule gya Lebanooni. Abaddu bange banaakoleranga wamu n’abaddu bo, era nakuweerezanga empeera yonna, gy’olinsaba olw’abaddu bo. Omanyi nga ku ffe tekuli n’omu alina magezi kutema miti okwenkana ab’e Sidoni.”
7 Hiramu anakondwa kwambiri atamva uthenga wa Solomoni ndipo anati, “Lero Yehova atamandike chifukwa wapatsa Davide mwana wanzeru kuti alamulire mtundu waukuluwu.”
Awo Kiramu bwe yawulira obubaka bwa Sulemaani, n’asanyuka nnyo era n’ayogera nti, “Mukama yeebazibwe, kubanga awadde Dawudi omwana ow’amagezi okufuga eggwanga lino eddene.”
8 Tsono Hiramu anabweza mawu awa kwa Solomoni: “Ndalandira uthenga umene mwanditumizira ndipo ine ndidzachita zonse zimene mukufuna pokupatsani mitengo ya mkungudza ndi payini.
Awo Kiramu n’atumira Sulemaani ng’ayogera nti, “Obubaka bwe wampeereza mbufunye, era nnaakola by’oyagala byonna eby’emiti egy’emivule n’emiti egy’emiberosi.
9 Anthu anga adzatsika nayo kuchokera ku Lebanoni mpaka ku nyanja, ndipo adzayiyandamitsa pa nyanja mpaka ku malo amene munene. Kumeneko ndidzayimasula ndipo mudzayitenga. Ndipo inu mudzakwaniritsa chokhumba changa pondipatsa chakudya cha banja langa laufumu.”
Basajja bange baligiggya mu Lebanooni ne bagiserengesa ku nnyanja, era ndigisengeka ng’ebitindiro okuyita ku nnyanja okugituusa mu kifo ky’olindaga. Nga gituuse eyo ndiragira ne bagisumulula, ne gikuweebwa. Kye njagala okolere ab’omu nnyumba yange, kwe kubawanga emmere.”
10 Motero Hiramu anapereka kwa Solomoni mitengo yonse ya mkungudza ndi payini imene ankayifuna,
Awo Kiramu n’awa Sulemaani emiti gy’emivule n’emiti egy’emiberosi nga bwe yayagala,
11 ndipo Solomoni anamupatsa Hiramu mitanga ya tirigu 20,000 ngati chakudya cha pa nyumba yake, kuwonjezera pa migolo ya mafuta a olivi yokwana 20,000. Solomoni anapitiriza kupereka zimenezi chaka ndi chaka.
ne Sulemaani n’amuwanga ebigero by’eŋŋaano kilo enkumi nnya mu bina eby’emmere ey’ennyumba ye, n’amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni ebigero amakumi abiri, ze kilo nga bina mu ana buli mwaka. Kino Sulemaani yakikoleranga Kiramu buli mwaka.
12 Yehova anamupatsa Solomoni nzeru monga momwe analonjezera. Panali ubale wa mtendere pakati pa Solomoni ndi Hiramu, ndipo awiriwa anachita pangano.
Mukama n’awa Sulemaani amagezi, nga bwe yamusuubiza. Ne waba emirembe wakati wa Kiramu ne Sulemaani, n’okulagaana ne balagaana endagaano bombi.
13 Mfumu Solomoni inasonkhanitsa anthu ogwira ntchito ya thangata mʼdziko lonse la Israeli ndipo anthu athangatawo analipo 30,000.
Kabaka Sulemaani n’akuŋŋaanya abakozi mu Isirayiri yonna, ne bawera abasajja emitwalo esatu.
14 Iye ankatumiza anthu 10,000 ku Lebanoni pa mwezi mosinthanasinthana, kotero kuti ankakhala ku Lebanoniko mwezi umodzi ndipo kwawo ankakhalako miyezi iwiri. Adoniramu ndiye ankayangʼanira ogwira ntchito yathangatayo.
N’abaweerezanga e Lebanooni mu mpalo; buli luwalo nga lumala omwezi gumu e Lebanooni n’emyezi ebiri ewaabwe, era Adoniraamu ye yabavunaanyizibwanga.
15 Solomoni anali ndi anthu amtengatenga 70,000, anthu 80,000 osema miyala ku mapiri,
Sulemaani yalina abantu emitwalo musanvu abaasitulanga emigugu, n’emitwalo munaana abaatemanga amayinja ku nsozi,
16 ndi akapitawo 33,000 amene ankayangʼanira ntchitoyi ndiponso anthu ogwira ntchito zina.
ate n’abaami be enkumi ssatu mu bisatu abaalabiriranga omulimu n’okulagirira abakozi.
17 Molamulidwa ndi mfumu, anakumba ndi kusema miyala ikuluikulu kwambiri yoti akamangire maziko a Nyumba ya Mulungu.
Kabaka n’alagira bateme amayinja amanene ddala nga bagaggya mu kirombe ky’amayinja ag’omuwendo, okuzimba emisingi gya yeekaalu n’amayinja amateme obulungi.
18 Amisiri a Solomoni ndi a Hiramu ndiponso anthu a ku Gebala anasema miyala ndi kukonza matabwa ndi miyala yomangira Nyumba ya Mulungu.
Abaweesi ba Sulemaani n’aba Kiramu, wamu n’abasajja ba Gebali ne balongoosa n’okutegeka ne bategeka emiti n’amayinja eby’okuzimba yeekaalu.
