1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said, “Here shall be the house of the LORD God, as well as the altar of burnt offering for Israel.”
Mgbe ahụ, Devid sịrị, “Ebe a ka a ga-ewuru Onyenwe anyị Chineke ụlọ, nakwa ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ nye Izrel.”
2 So David gave orders to gather the foreigners in the land of Israel, from whom he appointed stonecutters to prepare finished stones for building the house of God.
Ya mere, Devid nyere iwu ka a kpọkọta ndị ọbịa niile bi nʼIzrel, site nʼetiti ha ọ họpụtara ndị ga-edozi nkume a wara awa nke e ji wuo ụlọ Chineke.
3 David provided a large quantity of iron to make the nails for the doors of the gateways and for the fittings, together with more bronze than could be weighed
Devid wetara ọtụtụ igwe dị ukwuu, nke ha ji akpụta ǹtu maka ibo ọnụ ụzọ ama niile, na nke ịkpụ ihe njikọta niile. O wetakwara bronz a na-apụghị ịkọwa ịdị arọ ya.
4 and more cedar logs than could be counted; for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought a large quantity of cedar logs to David.
O webatakwara osisi sida nʼapụghị ịgụta ọnụọgụgụ ha, nʼihi na ndị Taịa na Saịdọn butere ha nʼọnụọgụgụ riri nne nye Devid.
5 And David said, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent—famous and glorious throughout all lands. Therefore I must make preparations for it.” So David made lavish preparations before his death.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid kwuru, “Solomọn nwa m bụ nwantakịrị, onye na-amachabeghị ihe. Ma ụlọnsọ a ga-ewuru Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ ụlọ dị ukwuu, nke ga-enwe aha a ma ama, na nke mara ezi mma nʼanya mba niile dị nʼụwa. Nʼihi ya, aga m akpakọba ihe niile e ji ewu ya.” Ya mere, tupu Devid anwụọ, ọ kwakọtara ngwongwo riri nne.
6 Then David called for his son Solomon and instructed him to build a house for the LORD, the God of Israel.
Ọ kpọrọ Solomọn, bụ nwa ya, nye ya iwu iwuru Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke Izrel ụlọ.
7 “My son,” said David to Solomon, “it was in my heart to build a house for the Name of the LORD my God,
Devid gwara Solomọn sị, “Nwa m, ọ dị m nʼobi iwu ụlọ maka aha Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke m,
8 but this word of the LORD came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You are not to build a house for My Name because you have shed so much blood on the ground before Me.
ma okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị a ruru m ntị sị m, ‘Ị wụsịala ọtụtụ ọbara, bukwaa ọtụtụ agha. Ị gaghị ewu ụlọ nye Aha m, nʼihi na ị wụsịala ọtụtụ ọbara nʼelu ala nʼihu m.
9 But a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his name will be Solomon, and I will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign.
Ma ị ga-amụta otu nwa nwoke onye ga-abụ mmadụ udo, na onye ga-enwe izuike nʼoge ya. Aga m enye ya izuike site nʼaka ndị iro ya nʼakụkụ niile. Aha ya ga-abụ Solomọn. Aga m enye Izrel udo na ahụ dị jụụ nʼoge ọchịchị ya.
10 He is the one who will build a house for My Name. He will be My son, and I will be his Father. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’
Ya onwe ya ga-ewuru m ụlọ ahụ. Ọ ga-abụrụ m nwa, mụ onwe m ga-abụkwara ya nna. Aga m emekwa ka ocheeze alaeze ya nʼIzrel guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’
11 Now, my son, may the LORD be with you, and may you succeed in building the house of the LORD your God, as He said you would.
“Ya mere, ugbu a nwa m, ka Onyenwe anyị nọnyere gị mgbe ị ga-ewu ụlọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, dịka o kwuru na ị ga-eme.
12 Above all, may the LORD give you insight and understanding when He puts you in command over Israel, so that you may keep the Law of the LORD your God.
Onyenwe anyị nyekwa gị amamihe na nghọta nke ị ga-eji chịa ezi ọchịchị mgbe ị ghọrọ eze Izrel, ka i si otu a debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
13 Then you will succeed, if you carefully follow the statutes and ordinances that the LORD commanded Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-enwe ọganihu, ma ọ bụrụ na i lezie anya idebe iwu na ụkpụrụ niile nke Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis maka Izrel. Dị ike, nwee obi ike. Atụla ụjọ, maọbụ daa mba.
14 Now behold, I have taken great pains to provide for the house of the LORD—100,000 talents of gold, 1,000,000 talents of silver, and bronze and iron too great to be weighed. I have also provided timber and stone, and you may add to them.
“Ejisiela m ike chịkọtaa ihe maka ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, narị puku talenti ọlaedo na nde talenti ọlaọcha, na igwe, na bronz, nke a na-apụghị ịgụta ịdị arọ ha, na osisi, na nkume. I nwere ike itinyekwa ihe ndị ọzọ nʼime ha.
15 You also have many workers: stonecutters, masons, carpenters, and men skilled in every kind of work—
Lee, i nwekwara ọtụtụ ndị ọrụ ndị na-awa nkume, na ndị na-edo nkume, na ndị ọka osisi, na ndị a maara aha ha nʼihe gbasara ǹka nʼọrụ dị iche iche,
16 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—craftsmen beyond number. Now begin the work, and may the LORD be with you.”
ọlaedo, na ọlaọcha, na bronz, na igwe, ndị ọrụ nʼenweghị ọnụọgụgụ. Onyenwe anyị aghaghị ịnọnyere gị. Bilie, rụọ ọrụ dịịrị gị.”
17 Then David ordered all the leaders of Israel to help his son Solomon:
Devid nyere ndịisi Izrel iwu ka ha nyere nwa ya Solomọn aka, mgbe ọ ga-ewu ụlọ ahụ.
18 “Is not the LORD your God with you, and has He not granted you rest on every side? For He has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand, and the land has been subdued before the LORD and His people.
Ọ gwara ha okwu sị, “Ọ bụ na Onyenwe anyị Chineke anọnyereghị unu? Ọ bụ na o nyebeghị unu udo nʼakụkụ niile? Nʼihi na o nyela m mmeri nʼebe ndị iro m nọ. Ugbu a, ala a dịkwa nʼaka Onyenwe anyị na nʼaka ndị ya.
19 Now set your heart and soul to seek the LORD your God. Get started building the sanctuary of the LORD God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the holy articles of God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the LORD.”
Ya mere, tinyenụ obi unu na mmụọ unu nʼịgbaso Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Malitekwanụ iwu ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke, ka unu nweekwa ike ibubata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, na ihe nsọ ndị ọzọ nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ a ga-ewu nʼihi Aha Onyenwe anyị.”
