Kodwa-ke, abantu babelokhu besanikelela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo ngoba ithempeli lalilokhu lilindele ukwakhiwa lisakhelwa ibizo likaThixo.
3 Solomon nonyiso herane ni Jehova Nyasaye kowuotho moluwore gi yore mag Daudi wuon-gi makmana ni notimo misengini kendo nowangʼo ubani kuonde motingʼore.

4 Ruoth nodhi Gibeon mondo ochiw misengini nimar kanyo e kama notingʼore malo moloyo ahinya kendo Solomon nochiwo misengini miwangʼo pep alufu achiel e kendo mar misangono.
Inkosi yaya eGibhiyoni ukuyanikela iminikelo, ngoba kwakuyiyo indawo eqhamileyo kweziphakemeyo, ngakho-ke uSolomoni wanikela ngeminikelo yokutshiswa eyinkulungwane kulelo-alithare.
5 E Gibeon kanyo ema Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyore ni Solomon gotieno e lek kendo Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kwa gimoro amora midwaro ni mondo amiyi.”
Khonapho eGibhiyoni uThixo waziveza kuSolomoni ebusuku emaphutsheni lapho uNkulunkulu athi, “Cela loba yini ofuna ukuba ngikunike yona.”
6 Solomon nodwoko niya, “Isenyiso ngʼwono maduongʼ ni jatichni Daudi wuonwa nikech ne en ja-adiera kuomi kendo ne en ngʼama kare ma chunye odimbore. Bende pod inyise ngʼwono maduongʼno nyaka chil kawuono kendo isemiye wuowi mondo obedi e kome kawuononi.
USolomoni waphendula ngokuthi, “Utshengisile umusa omkhulu encekwini yakho, ubaba uDavida, ngenxa yokuthi wathembeka njalo elungile ngokuqonda enhliziyweni yakhe. Uqhubekele phambili ngomusa omkhulu kangaka wamnika indodana ehlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi lamuhla lokhu.
7 “Koro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasacha, iseketo jatichni ruoth kar wuonwa Daudi. To an mana rawera kendo ok angʼeyo kaka onego atim tichna.
Khathesi, Thixo Nkulunkulu wami, uyibekile inceku yakho yaba yinkosi esikhundleni sikababa uDavida. Kodwa ngingumntwana nje ongakwaziyo ukwenza umsebenzi okumele awenze.
8 Jatichni nitie ka e kind oganda miseyiero, oganda maduongʼ kendo mathoth mokalo akwana.
Inceku yakho ilapha phakathi kwabantu bakho obakhethileyo, abantu abaqakathekileyo, abanengi okungabalwayo noma ukulandisa ngenani labo.
9 Omiyo mi jatichni chuny mariek mondo otel ne jogi kendo mar pogo ber gi rach. Nimar en ngʼa manyalo telo ni oganda maduongʼ machalo kama?”
Phana inceku yakho inhliziyo elobubelo ukuze ibuse abantu bakho lokuthi yahlukanise phakathi kokuhle lokubi. Ngoba ngubani olamandla okubusa abantu bakho abakhulu kangaka?”

Ngakho uNkulunkulu wathi kuye, “Njengoba ucele lokho kodwa ungacelanga impilo ende loba inotho, njalo awucelanga ukuthi ngabe izitha zakho ziyafa kodwa ucele inhliziyo elobubele ekubuseni ngemfanelo,
12 Abiro timo gima isekwayo. Abiro miyi chuny mar rieko kod mar ngʼeyo mondo kik bedie ngʼama chalo kodi kendo nyaka chiengʼ.
ngizakwenza lokho okucelileyo. Ngizakunika inhliziyo yenhlakanipho kanye lobubele, kube yikuthi akukaze kube khona ofanana lawe, njalo kungelakuthi uzake abekhona.
13 Moloyo mano abiro miyi nyaka mago ma ok ikwayo kaka mwandu kod duongʼ mondo e kinde mag ngimani ok inibed gi ngʼat maromo kodi e kind ruodhi.
Phezu kwalokho, ngizakunika ongazange ukucele, kokubili inotho lokuhlonitshwa, kube khona ekuphileni kwakho konke njalo kungabi leyodwa inkosi ezalingana lawe.
14 To kiwuotho e yorena kendo rito buchena kod chikena kaka Daudi wuonu notimo bende anamiyi idak amingʼa.”
Kanti njalo nxa uzathatha inyathelo lami ulalele imilayo lemithetho yami njengalokhu okwenziwa nguyihlo uDavida, ngizakunika impilo ende.”
15 Bangʼe Solomon nochiewo moyudo ni ne en mana lek. Nodok Jerusalem mochungʼ e nyim Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo nochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mag lalruok. Eka notimo nyasi ni joge duto manie dala mar ruoth.
Ngakho uSolomoni wasephaphama, wananzelela ukuthi kwakuliphupho. Wabuyela eJerusalema, wayakuma phambi kwebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo wanikela ngomnikelo wokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula. Wenzela izinceku zakhe zonke zasendlini idili.
16 Chiengʼ moro mon ariyo ma jochode nobiro ir ruoth mochungʼ e nyime.
Kwasekusiba lezifebe ezimbili ezaya enkosini zafika zema phambi kwayo.
17 Achiel kuomgi nowacho niya, “Ruodha, dhakoni gi an wadak e ot chiel. Ne ayudo nyathi kane en koda e ot.
Esinye sathi, “Nkosi yami, umama lo sihlala ndlunye. Ngikhululeke ngazuza umntwana laye ekhona.
18 Chiengʼ mar adek kasenywolo nyathina, dhakoni bende noyudo nyathi. To ne onge ngʼato moro amora e ot makmana wan kendwa.
Kuthe ngosuku lwesithathu ngikhululekile laye umama lo wakhululeka wazuza umntwana. Besiyithi sodwa sobabili, kungelamuntu endlini ngaphandle kwethu sobabili.
19 “Gotieno wuod dhakoni notho nikech nonindo kuome.
Ebusuku indodana yalumama ifile ngoba usuke walala phezu kwayo.
20 Omiyo nochungʼ malo chuny otieno kendo okaw wuoda e batha ka jatichni ne nindo. Nokete e kore to okawo wuode mothono oketo e kora.
Wasevuka ebusuku wangemuka indodana yami mina ncekukazi yakho ngilele ubuthongo. Uthethe umntanami wayamxhuma ebeleni lakhe, wathatha owakhe ofileyo wamfaka kwelami ibele.
21 Kinyne gokinyi nachungʼ mondo adhodh wuoda to nayudo kotho! To kane anone gi ler mar okinyi ne aneno ni ok en wuowi mane anywolo.”
Ekuseni ngithe ngivuka ukuba ngimunyise indodana yami, ngathola ukuthi isifile! Kodwa ngithe ngiyayikhangelisisa sokusile ngananzelela ukuthi akusiyo indodana yami engayizalayo.”
22 Dhako machielono nokwer kawacho niya, “Ooyo! Mangimani e wuoda; to mothono e mari.” To dhako mokwongono notwoyo dhoge kawacho niya, “Ooyo! Wuowi mothono e mari; to mangimano to mara.” Omiyo ne gimino wach e nyim ruoth.
Omunye owesifazane wathi, “Hayi! Indodana le ephilayo ngeyami, efileyo ngeyakho.” Kodwa umama wokususa indaba waphikelela esithi, “Hayi bo! Ofileyo ngowakho, ophilayo ngowami.” Ngakho-ke baphikisana phambi kwenkosi.
23 Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Iwacho ni, ‘Wuoda ngima kendo mari otho,’ kendo machielo wacho ni, ‘Ooyo, wuodi otho to mara ngima.’”
Inkosi yathi, “Lo uthi, ‘Hayi bo! Indodana yami iyaphila kodwa eyakho ifile’ kanti belo loyana uthi, ‘Hayi bo! Eyakho indodana yiyo efileyo kodwa eyami ngephilayo.’”
24 Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Kelna ligangla.” Omiyo negikelone ruoth ligangla.
Inkosi yasisithi, “Lethani inkemba.” Lakanye inkosi bayiqhubela inkemba.
25 Bangʼe nochiwo chik kowacho niya, “Ngʼaduru nyathi mangimano e diere ariyo eka umi ngʼato ka ngʼato nus.”
Inkosi yapha isiqondiso yathi, “Dabulani umntwana ophilayo phakathi laphakathi kuthi ingxenye liyiqhubele omunye umama kuthi lomunye laye limnike enye ingxenye.”
26 Eka dhako mane wuode ngima nokecho wuode mowacho ni ruoth niya, “Kiyie ruodha, miye nyathino mangimano! Kik inege!” To dhako machielo nowacho niya, “An kata in ok noyud nyathino. Ngʼade nyadiriyo!”
Owesifazane owayelendodana ephilayo wakhulelwa lusizi ngendodana yakhe ngakho wathi enkosini, “Uxolo, ngiyacela nkosi yami, kungcono umqhubele umntwana ephila, umnike nkosi! Ungambulali umntwana.” Kodwa omunye wathi, “Kakho phakathi kwethu ofanele ukumzuza lumntwana, mqume iziqa ezimbili!”
27 Eka ruoth nongʼado bura kama, “Miuru dhako mokwongono nyathi mangima, kik unege nimar en e min-gi.”
Inkosi yasiveza ukwahlulela kwayo: “Umntwana ophilayo mupheni umama wakuqala. Lingambulali umntwana, lo nguye unina uqobo.”
28 Kane jo-Israel owinjo bura mane ruoth ongʼado, negimiyo ruoth duongʼ nikech negineno ne en-gi rieko moa kuom Nyasaye.
Kwathi abako-Israyeli sebezwile bonke ukwahlulela kwenkosi, bayesaba kakhulu, ngoba babona ukuthi ukuhlakanipha kwayo kokwahlulela ngemfanelo kuvela kuNkulunkulu.
