1 Kings 6
1 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Jehovah.
Patapita zaka 480 Aisraeli atatuluka mʼdziko la Igupto, chaka chachinayi cha ulamuliro wa Solomoni mu Israeli, mwezi wa Zivi, umene ndi mwezi wachiwiri, Solomoni anayamba kumanga Nyumba ya Yehova.
2 And the house which king Solomon built for Jehovah, the length thereof was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty [cubits], and the height thereof thirty cubits.
Nyumba imene Solomoni anamangira Yehova mulitali mwake inali mamita 27, mulifupi mwake inali mamita asanu ndi anayi, ndipo msinkhu wake unali mamita 13 ndi theka.
3 And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; [and] ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.
Chipinda chakubwalo mʼmbali mwake chinali mamita asanu ndi anayi kulingana ndi mulifupi mwa Nyumbayo ndipo kutalika kwake kunali kwa mamita anayi ndi theka.
4 And for the house he made windows of fixed lattice-work.
Anapanga mazenera amene maferemu ake anali olowa mʼkati mwa makoma a Nyumbayo.
5 And against the wall of the house he built stories round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle; and he made side-chambers round about.
Mʼmbali mwa makoma a Nyumba yayikulu ndi chipinda chopatulika chamʼkati, anamanga zipinda zosanjikizana, mozungulira.
6 The nethermost story was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad; for on the outside he made offsets [in the wall] of the house round about, that [the beams] should not have hold in the walls of the house.
Chipinda chapansi, mulifupi mwake chinali mamita awiri, chipinda chapakati mulifupi mwake chinali mamita awiri ndi theka ndipo chipinda chapamwamba penipeni mulifupi mwake chinali mamita atatu. Iye anapanga zinthu zosongoka kunja kwa khoma la kunja kuzungulira Nyumbayo kuti asamapise kanthu pa makoma a Nyumba ya Mulungu.
7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
Poyimanga Nyumbayo, anagwiritsa ntchito miyala yosemeratu, ndipo pogwira ntchitoyo sipanamveke nyundo, nkhwangwa kapena chida china chilichonse.
8 The door for the middle side-chambers was in the right side of the house: and they went up by winding stairs into the middle [story], and out of the middle into the third.
Chipata cholowera ku chipinda chapansi chinali mbali ya kummwera kwa Nyumbayo. Panali makwerero okwerera ku chipinda chapakati ndiponso chipinda cha pamwamba.
9 So he built the house, and finished it; and he covered the house with beams and planks of cedar.
Choncho anamanga Nyumbayo mpaka kuyimaliza ndipo denga lake linali la mitanda ndi matabwa a mkungudza.
10 And he built the stories against all the house, each five cubits high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
Msinkhu wa chipinda chilichonse unali mamita awiri, ndipo anazilumukiza ku Nyumbayo ndi mitanda yamkungudza.
11 And the word of Jehovah came to Solomon, saying,
Yehova anayankhula ndi Solomoni kuti,
12 Concerning this house which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute mine ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I establish my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father.
“Kunena za Nyumba imene ukumangayi, ngati iwe udzamvera malangizo anga ndi kutsatira mawu anga, ngati udzasunga malamulo anga ndi kuwachita, Ine ndidzakwaniritsa zonse zomwe ndinalonjeza Davide abambo ako.
13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
Ndipo Ine ndidzakhazikika pakati pa ana a Israeli ndipo sindidzawasiya anthu anga Aisraeli.”
14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
Kotero Solomoni anamanga Nyumba ya Mulungu nayimaliza.
15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar: from the floor of the house unto the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood; and he covered the floor of the house with boards of fir.
Anakuta khoma la mʼkati mwake ndi matabwa a mkungudza, kuyambira pansi pa Nyumbayo mpaka ku denga ndipo pansi pa Nyumbayo anayalapo matabwa a payini.
16 And he built twenty cubits on the hinder part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor unto the walls [of the ceiling]: he built [them] for it within, for an oracle, even for the most holy place.
Kumbuyo kwa Nyumbayo anadula chipinda chachitali mamita asanu ndi anayi. Chipindachi anachimanga ndi matabwa a mkungudza kuyambira pansi mpaka ku denga kuti chikhale chipinda chopatulika chamʼkati mwa Nyumba ya Mulungu ngati Malo Wopatulika Kwambiri.
17 And the house, that is, the temple before [the oracle], was forty cubits [long].
Chipinda chachikulu chimene chinali kutsogolo kwa Malo Wopatulika Kwambiriwa, chinali mamita 18 mulitali mwake.
18 And there was cedar on the house within, carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
Mʼkati mwa Nyumbayi munali matabwa a mkungudza, pamene anajambulapo zithunzi za zikho ndi maluwa. Paliponse panali mkungudza wokhawokha. Panalibe mwala uliwonse umene unkaonekera.
19 And he prepared an oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.
Anakonza malo wopatulika mʼkati mwa Nyumbayi kuti ayikemo Bokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova.
20 And within the oracle was [a space of] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof; and he overlaid it with pure gold: and he covered the altar with cedar.
Malo wopatulika a mʼkatiwo anali a mamita asanu ndi anayi mulitali mwake, mulifupi mwake, ndi msinkhu wake. Anakuta mʼkati mwake ndi golide weniweni ndiponso anapanga guwa lansembe la matabwa a mkungudza.
21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he drew chains of gold across before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
Solomoni anakutira golide weniweni mʼkati mwake mwa Nyumbayi, ndipo anayalika maunyolo a golide mopingasa kutsogolo kwa malo wopatulika amene anakutidwa ndi golide.
22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until all the house was finished: also the whole altar that belonged to the oracle he overlaid with gold.
Motero anakuta mʼkati monse ndi golide. Anakutanso ndi golide guwa lansembe la mʼkati mwa chipinda chopatulika.
23 And in the oracle he made two cherubim of olive-wood, each ten cubits high.
Mʼchipinda chopatulika cha mʼkati anapangamo akerubi awiri a mtengo wa olivi. Msinkhu wa kerubi aliyense unali mamita anayi ndi theka.
24 And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.
Phiko limodzi la kerubi kutalika kwake kunali mamita awiri ndi theka, phiko linanso linali mamita awiri ndi theka, kutambasula mapiko awiriwo, kuchokera msonga ina mpaka msonga ina kutalika kwake kunali mamita anayi ndi theka.
25 And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
Kerubi wachiwiriyo msinkhu wake unalinso mamita anayi ndi theka, pakuti akerubi awiriwo anali a misinkhu yofanana ndi a mapangidwe ofanana.
26 The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.
Msinkhu wa kerubi aliyense unali mamita anayi ndi theka.
27 And he set the cherubim within the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
Solomoni anayika akerubiwo mʼchipinda cha mʼkati mwenimweni mwa Nyumba ya Mulungu, atatambasula mapiko awo. Phiko la kerubi wina limakhudza khoma lina, pamene phiko la winayo limakhudza khoma linanso ndipo mapiko awo amakhudzana pakati pa chipindacho.
28 And he overlaid the cherubim with gold.
Akerubiwo anawakuta ndi golide.
29 And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers, within and without.
Pa makoma onse kuzungulira Nyumbayo, mʼzipinda za mʼkati ndi za kunja zomwe, anajambulapo akerubi, mitengo ya mgwalangwa ndi maluwa.
30 And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
Anayala golide pansi mu Nyumbamo mʼzipinda zamʼkati ndi zakunja zomwe.
31 And for the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive-wood: the lintel [and] door-posts were a fifth part [of the wall].
Ndipo pa khomo lolowera ku malo wopatulika amʼkati anapanga zitseko za mtengo wa olivi ndipo khonde lake linali ndi mbali zisanu.
32 So [he made] two doors of olive-wood; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread the gold upon the cherubim, and upon the palm-trees.
Ndipo pa zitseko ziwiri zija za mtengo wa olivi anajambulapo kerubi, mitengo ya mgwalangwa ndi maluwa ndipo anapaka golide akerubiwo ndi mitengo ya mgwalangwayo.
33 So also made he for the entrance of the temple door-posts of olive-wood, out of a fourth part [of the wall];
Anapanganso chimodzimodzi mphuthu za mbali zinayi za mtengo wa olivi za pa khomo la Nyumbayo.
34 and two doors of fir-wood: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
Solomoni anapanganso zitseko ziwiri za payini. Chitseko chilichonse chinali ndi mbali ziwiri zotha kuzipinda.
35 And he carved [thereon] cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold fitted upon the graven work.
Pa zitsekozo anagobapo akerubi, mitengo ya mgwalangwa ndi maluwa wotambasuka ndipo zojambulazo anazikuta ndi golide wopyapyala.
36 And he built the inner court with three courses of hewn stone, and a course of cedar beams.
Ndipo anamanga bwalo la mʼkati lokhala ndi khoma lokhala ndi mizere itatu ya miyala yosema ndiponso mzere umodzi wa matabwa osemedwa a mkungudza.
37 In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of Jehovah laid, in the month Ziv.
Maziko a Nyumba ya Yehova anamangidwa pa chaka chachinayi, mwezi wa Zivi.
38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.
Pa chaka cha 11 mwezi wa Buli, mwezi wachisanu ndi chitatu, madera onse a Nyumba anatha kumangidwa monga momwe kunkafunikira. Anamanga Nyumbayo kwa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri.
