1 Chronicles 29
1 Then King David said to the whole assembly, “My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen, is young and inexperienced. The task is great because this palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid gwara ọgbakọ Izrel niile okwu sị ha, “Nwa m Solomọn, onye Chineke họpụtara ịbụ eze nʼọnọdụ m, bụ nwantakịrị na-amachabeghị ihe. Ma ọrụ o nwere ịrụ dị ukwuu, nʼihi na ụlọ ukwu a abụghị mmadụ ka ọ dịrị, kama ọ bụ nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke.
2 Now with all my ability I have made provision for the house of my God—gold for the gold articles, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron, and wood for the wood, as well as onyx for the settings, turquoise, stones of various colors, all kinds of precious stones, and slabs of marble—all in abundance.
Ma nʼike m niile, agbalịala m wetachaa ihe niile a ga-eji wuo ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke m ebe ha dị ukwuu: ọlaedo a ga-eji kpụọ ihe ọlaedo niile, ọlaọcha a ga-eji kpụọ ihe ọlaọcha niile, bronz a ga-eji kpụọ ihe bronz niile, igwe a ga-eji kpụọ ihe igwe niile, na osisi a ga-eji rụọ ihe osisi niile, nkume dị oke ọnụahịa ọniks, a ga-ahịọnye ahịọnye, na nkume dị oke ọnụahịa tọkwọisi, na nkume ndị ọzọ ụcha ha dị iche iche, na nkume ndị ọzọ mara mma, tinyere mabụl.
3 Moreover, because of my delight in the house of my God, I now give for it my personal treasures of gold and silver, over and above all that I have provided for this holy temple:
Ugbu a, nʼihi mmasị m nʼebe ụlọnsọ Chineke m dị, ana m enye akụ nke aka m niile, ya bụ ọlaedo na ọlaọcha m, iji ya nye aka, maka iwu ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke m. Ihe ndị a ka m na-enye, tụkwasịkwa nʼelu ihe ndị ọzọ niile bụ nke m nyerela, nʼihi ụlọnsọ ukwu a:
4 three thousand talents of gold (the gold of Ophir) and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the buildings,
bụ puku talenti ọlaedo atọ (ọlaedo e si Ọfịa bubata), na puku talenti ọlaọcha asaa nke a nụchara anụcha, nke a ga-eji machite ahụ ụlọ niile nke ụlọ ndị ahụ.
5 for the gold work and the silver work, and for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now who will volunteer to consecrate himself to the LORD today?”
Maka ọrụ niile a ga-eji ọlaedo rụọ, na nke a ga-eji ọlaọcha rụọ, na ọrụ niile ndị ǹka ga-arụ. Ugbu a, onye jikeere iwere onwe ya nyechasịa Onyenwe anyị nʼaka taa?”
6 Then the leaders of the households, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officials in charge of the king’s work gave willingly.
Mgbe ahụ, ndịisi ezinaụlọ, na ndịisi ozi nke ebo Izrel niile, na ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, na ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ narị ndị agha, na ndịisi ozi na-elekọta ọrụ eze, jiri obi ha niile nye onyinye.
7 Toward the service of God’s house they gave 5,000 talents and 10,000 darics of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze, and 100,000 talents of iron.
Ha nyere maka ọrụ ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke. Ha nyere puku talenti ọlaedo ise, na puku darik ọlaedo iri, nyekwa puku talenti ọlaọcha iri, na puku talenti bronz iri na asatọ, na narị puku talenti igwe.
8 Whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the LORD, under the care of Jehiel the Gershonite.
Ndị niile nwere nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche webatara ya tinye ha nʼụlọakụ dị nʼụlọ nso ukwu Onyenwe anyị, nke Jehiel onye Geshọn na-elekọta.
9 And the people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given to the LORD freely and wholeheartedly. And King David also rejoiced greatly.
Ndị Izrel niile ṅụrịrị ọṅụ nʼihi otu ndịisi ha jiri wepụta obi nye onyinye, nʼihi na ha ji ọṅụ na obi ha niile nye Onyenwe anyị onyinye. Eze Devid nʼonwe ya ṅụrịkwara ọṅụ nke ukwuu.
10 Then David blessed the LORD in the sight of all the assembly and said: “May You be blessed, O LORD, God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
Nʼihu ọha Izrel niile, Devid kelere Onyenwe anyị ekele sị, “Otuto dịrị gị Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna anyị Izrel site nʼebighị ebi ruo ebighị ebi.
11 Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in heaven and on earth belongs to You. Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom, and You are exalted as head over all.
Gị onwe gị, Onyenwe anyị nwe ịdị ukwu, na ike, na ịma mma, na ugwu eze, na ebube, nʼihi na ihe niile nʼeluigwe na nʼụwa bụ nke gị. Gị onwe gị, Onyenwe anyị nwe alaeze. Gị kwa ka e buliri elu dịka onye na-achị isi nʼelu ihe niile.
12 Both riches and honor come from You, and You are the ruler over all. In Your hands are power and might to exalt and give strength to all.
Akụnụba na nsọpụrụ na-esite nʼebe ị nọ abịa. Gị onwe gị na-achịkwa ihe niile. Ọ bụkwa nʼaka gị ka ume na ike dị ibuli ihe niile elu, na inye ihe niile ike.
13 Now therefore, our God, we give You thanks, and we praise Your glorious name.
Ugbu a, Chineke anyị, anyị na-enye gị ekele na-etokwa aha gị dị ebube.
14 But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? For everything comes from You, and from Your own hand we have given to You.
“Ma onye ka m bụ, ole ndị kwa ka ụmụ Izrel bụ, na i kweere ka anyị gbasapụ aka anyị nye gị onyinye. Ihe niile anyị nwere sitere nʼaka gị bịa, ha kwa ka anyị na-enyeghachi gị.
15 For we are foreigners and strangers in Your presence, as were all our forefathers. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.
Anyị bụ ndị ọbịa na ndị mbịarambịa nʼihu gị, dịka nna nna anyị ha. Ụbọchị ndụ anyị nʼụwa dị ka onyinyo, nke olileanya na-adịghị nʼime ya.
16 O LORD our God, from Your hand comes all this abundance that we have provided to build You a house for Your holy Name, and all of it belongs to You.
O, Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị, ihe niile ndị a anyị bukọrọ maka iji rụọra gị ụlọnsọ si nʼaka gị bịa. Ha niile bụkwa nke gị.
17 I know, my God, that You test the heart and delight in uprightness. All these things I have given willingly and with an upright heart, and now I have seen Your people who are present here giving joyfully and willingly to You.
Amaara m, Chineke m, na ị na-anwale obi, na i na-enwekwa mmasị nʼihe ziri ezi. Ihe ndị niile ka m onwe m nyere site nʼafọ ofufu nakwa obi ziri ezi. Ma ugbu a, ahụla m ọṅụ ndị gị, bụ ndị nọ nʼebe a, ji were afọ ofufu nye gị onyinye ha.
18 O LORD, God of our fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, keep this desire forever in the intentions of the hearts of Your people, and direct their hearts toward You.
Ya mere, gị Onyenwe anyị, Chineke nna anyị Ebraham na Aịzik, na Izrel, biko, mee ka ụdị ọchịchọ a dịgide nʼime obi ndị gị ruo ebighị ebi, meekwa ka ha jiri obi ha niile gbasoo gị mgbe niile.
19 And give my son Solomon a whole heart to keep and carry out all Your commandments, decrees, and statutes, and to build Your palace for which I have made provision.”
Nye nwa m Solomọn obi zuruoke nke ọ ga-eji debe iwu gị niile, ọchịchọ gị niile na ụkpụrụ gị niile, ya na mmụọ imezu ihe niile metụtara owuwu ụlọnsọ ukwu a nke m kwadooro ihe niile ndị a.”
20 Then David said to the whole assembly, “Blessed be the LORD your God.” So the whole assembly blessed the LORD, the God of their fathers. They bowed down and paid homage to the LORD and to the king.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid gwara ndị Izrel okwu sị, “Toonu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu!” Ha niile toro Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna ha, kpọọ isiala nye Onyenwe anyị na eze.
21 The next day they offered sacrifices and presented burnt offerings to the LORD: a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, along with their drink offerings, and other sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.
Nʼechi ya, ha wetara otu puku oke ehi, na otu puku ebule, na otu puku ụmụ ebule jiri ha chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ. Tinyere aja ihe ọṅụṅụ na ọtụtụ aja ndị ọzọ nʼebe ọ bara ụba nʼihi ụmụ Izrel niile.
22 That day they ate and drank with great joy in the presence of the LORD. Then, for a second time, they designated David’s son Solomon as king, anointing him before the LORD as ruler, and Zadok as the priest.
Emesịa, ha jiri ọṅụ rie oriri, ṅụkwaa ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha nọkwa nʼebe ahụ nabata Solomọn, nwa Devid dịka eze nke ugboro abụọ, teekwa ya mmanụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụrụ onye ọchịchị. Ha mekwara Zadọk onye nchụaja.
23 So Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king in place of his father David. He prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.
Ya mere, Solomọn nọkwasịrị nʼocheeze Onyenwe anyị dịka eze, nʼọnọdụ nna ya Devid. Ọ bara ụba nke ukwuu. Ndị Izrel rubekwaara ya isi.
24 All the officials and mighty men, as well as all of King David’s sons, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon.
Ndịisi ọchịchị niile, na ndịisi Izrel niile, na ụmụ ndị ikom eze Devid niile kwupụtara nrube isi ha nye Solomọn, eze ọhụrụ.
25 The LORD highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him royal majesty such as had not been bestowed on any king in Israel before him.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka Solomọn dị ukwuu hie nne nʼanya ndị Izrel niile. Ọ yikwasịrị ya ebube nke alaeze nʼụdị ọ dịbeghị eze ọbụla buru ya ụzọ chịa nʼIzrel nweturula.
26 David son of Jesse was king over all Israel.
Devid nwa Jesi bụ eze ndị Izrel niile.
27 The length of David’s reign over Israel was forty years—seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Ọ chịrị Izrel iri afọ anọ. Ọ chịrị afọ asaa na Hebrọn, chịakwa iri afọ atọ na atọ na Jerusalem.
28 He died at a ripe old age, full of years, riches, and honor, and his son Solomon reigned in his place.
Ọ nwụrụ mgbe ọ ghọrọ ezigbo agadi. Ọ bụkwa onye biri ogologo ndụ, onye nwekwara akụnụba na nsọpụrụ. Solomọn nwa ya nwoke nọchiri ya dịka eze.
29 Now the acts of King David, from first to last, are indeed written in the Chronicles of Samuel the Seer, the Chronicles of Nathan the Prophet, and the Chronicles of Gad the Seer,
Ihe niile gbasara ọchịchị eze Devid, site na mmalite rụọ nʼọgwụgwụ, ka e dere nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ Samuel, onye ọhụ ụzọ, na nʼakwụkwọ Netan, onye amụma, na nʼakwụkwọ Gad onye ọhụ ụzọ.
30 together with all the details of his reign, his might, and the circumstances that came upon him and Israel and all the kingdoms of the lands.
Akụkọ ndị a gosiri ihe gbasara ọchịchị eze ya, na ịdị ike ya, na ihe niile mere ya, na ihe mere ndị Izrel, na ndị eze ndị mba ọzọ bi ha gburugburu.
