1 Kings 9
1 And it came to pass when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he desired, and was pleased to do,
Awo Sulemaani bwe yamala okuzimba yeekaalu ya Mukama n’olubiri lwe, n’okuzimba ebyo byonna bye yasiima,
2 That the Lord appeared to him the second time, as he had appeared to him in Gabaon.
Mukama n’amulabikira omulundi ogwokubiri, nga bwe yamulabikira e Gibyoni.
3 And the Lord said to him: I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, which thou hast made before me: I have sanctified this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever, and my eyes and my heart shall be there always.
Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Mpulidde okusaba n’okwegayirira kw’owaddeyo gye ndi; ntukuzizza yeekaalu eno gy’ozimbye, n’erinnya lyange, emirembe gyonna. Amaaso gange n’omutima gwange binaabeeranga omwo.
4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as thy father walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness: and wilt do all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my ordinances and my judgments,
“Naawe bw’onootambuliranga mu maaso gange n’omutima ogw’amazima n’obugolokofu, nga Dawudi kitaawo bwe yakola, era n’okolanga bye nkulagira byonna, n’okwatanga amateeka gange,
5 I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever, as I promised David thy father, saying: There shall not fail a man of thy race upon the throne of Israel.
nnaanyweza entebe yo ey’obwakabaka mu Isirayiri emirembe gyonna, nga bwe nasuubiza Dawudi kitaawo bwe n’ayogera nti, ‘Tolirema kuba na musajja ow’omu lulyo lwo anaatuulanga ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri.’
6 But if you and your children revolting shall turn away from following me, and will not keep my commandments, and my ceremonies, which I have set before you, but will go and worship strange gods, and adore them:
“Naye ggwe oba batabani bo bwe munanjeemeranga ne mutakwatanga biragiro byange n’amateeka ge mbawadde, ne mutanula okuweereza bakatonda abalala,
7 I will take away Israel from the face of the land which I have given them; and the temple which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb, and a byword among all people.
kale ndiggya ku Isirayiri ensi gye mbawadde era ne yeekaalu gye ntukuzizza n’erinnya lyange ndigireka. Olwo Isirayiri erifuuka eky’okunyoomoolwa n’ekyokusekererwa mu mawanga gonna.
8 And this house shall be made an example of: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss, and say: Why hath the Lord done thus to this land, and to this house:
Newaakubadde nga yeekaalu eno eyatiikirira kaakano, buli anaayitangawo aneewunyanga n’aŋŋoola ng’agamba nti, ‘Kiki ekireetedde Mukama okukola ekintu bwe kiti ku nsi eno ne ku yeekaalu eno?’
9 And they shall answer: Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and followed strange gods, and adored them, and worshipped them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.
Abantu baliddamu nti, ‘Kubanga baava ku Mukama Katonda waabwe, eyaggya bajjajjaabwe mu Misiri, ne basembeza bakatonda abalala, n’okubasinza ne babasinza era n’okubaweereza ne babaweereza. Mukama kyavudde ababonereza mu ngeri eyo.’”
10 And when twenty years were ended after Solomon had built the two houses, that is, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,
Ku nkomerero y’emyaka amakumi abiri, mu kiseera Sulemaani mwe yazimbira ebizimbe byombi, eyeekaalu ya Mukama, n’olubiri lwe olw’obwakabaka,
11 (Hiram the king of Tyre furnishing Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and gold according to all he had need of.) then Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
Kabaka Sulemaani yagabira Kiramu kabaka w’e Ttuulo ebibuga amakumi abiri, olw’emivule, n’emiberosi ne zaabu bye yaweereza Sulemaani.
12 And Hiram came out of Tyre, to see the towns which Solomon had given him, and they pleased him not,
Naye Kiramu bwe yava e Ttuulo n’agenda okulambula ebibuga Sulemaani bye yamugabira, ne bitamusanyusa.
13 And he said: Are these the cities which thou hast given me, brother? And he called them the land of Chabul, unto this day.
N’amubuuza nti, “Bino bibuga bya ngeri ki by’ompadde muganda wange?” N’abituuma erinnya Kabuli, era bwe biyitibwa n’okutuusa olunaku lwa leero.
14 And Hiram sent to king Solomon a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
Kiramu yali aweerezza kabaka ttani nnya eza zaabu.
15 This is the sum of the expenses, which king Solomon offered to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and Mello, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Heser, and Mageddo, and Gazer.
Kabaka Sulemaani mu buyinza bwe n’amaanyi ge, yakuŋŋaanya abasajja ab’amaanyi bangi okuzimba yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’olubiri lwe, n’obusenge obuwagika bbugwe wa Yerusaalemi, n’ebibuga ebya Kazoli, ne Megiddo ne Gezeri.
16 Pharao the king of Egypt came up and took Gazer, and burnt it with fire: and slew the Chanaanite that dwelt in the city, and gave it for a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.
Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri yali atabadde, n’okuwamba n’awamba Gezeri, n’akireka ng’akikumyeko omuliro, ng’asse Abakanani abaakibeerangamu. Ekifo ekyo n’akigabira muwala we, muka Sulemaani ng’ekirabo ku mbaga yaabwe.
17 So Solomon built: Gazer, and Beth-horon the nether,
Awo Sulemaani n’akizimba buggya; n’azimba ne Besukolooni ekya wansi,
18 And Baalath, and Palmira in the land of the wilderness.
Baalasi ne Tamali mu ddungu,
19 And all the towns that belonged to himself, and were not walled, he fortified, the cities also of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatsoever he had a mind to build in Jerusalem, and in Libanus, and in all the land of his dominion.
n’ebibuga eby’amawanika, n’omwakuumirwanga amagaali, n’abeebagala embalaasi ze, ne byonna bye yayagala okuzimba mu Yerusaalemi, ne mu Lebanooni ne mu bitundu byonna bye yafuganga.
20 All the people that were left of the Amorrhites, and Hethites, and Pherezites, and Hevites, and Jebusites, that are not of the children of Israel:
Abantu bonna abaasigalawo ku Bamoli, n’Abakiiti, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi n’Abayebusi, abataali Bayisirayiri,
21 Their children, that were left in the land, to wit, such as the children of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary unto this day.
Abayisirayiri be bataayinza kuzikiririza ddala, Sulemaani n’abafuula baddu, n’okutuusa leero.
22 But of the children of Israel Solomon made not any to be bondmen, but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and captains, and overseers of the chariots and horses.
Naye teyafuula Muyisirayiri n’omu muddu, wabula bo baali nga balwanyi be, na bakungu be, na baami be, na baduumizi b’amagaali na beebagazi ba mbalaasi ze.
23 And there were five hundred and fifty chief officers set over all the works of Solomon, and they had people under them, and had charge over the appointed works.
Era be baali nga abakungu abaavunaanyizibwanga emirimu gye gyonna, era abo bonna abaavunaanyizibwanga emirimu egyo, awamu nga bawera abakungu ebikumi bitaano mu ataano.
24 And the daughter of Pharao came up out of the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her: then did he build Mello.
Awo muwala wa Falaawo bwe yava mu kibuga kya Dawudi n’agenda mu lubiri Sulemaani lwe yamuzimbira, Sulemaani n’azimba obusenge obuwagika bbugwe.
25 Solomon also offered three times every year holocausts, and victims of peace offerings upon the altar which he had built to the Lord, and he burnt incense before the Lord: and the temple was finished.
Sulemaani yawangayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo eby’emirembe ku kyoto kye yazimbira Mukama, emirundi esatu mu mwaka, ng’ayotereza obubaane mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’atuukiriza obulombolombo bwa yeekaalu.
26 And king Solomon made a fleet in Asiongaber, which is by Ailath on the shore of the Red Sea in the land of Edom.
Kabaka Sulemaani yazimba n’ebyombo mu Eziyonigeba okuliraana Erosi mu Edomu, ku lubalama lw’ennyanja Emyufu.
27 And Hiram sent his servants in the fleet, sailors that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
Kiramu n’aweereza abasajja be abalunnyanja okukoleranga awamu n’aba Sulemaani.
28 And they came to Ophir, and they brought from thence to king Solomon four hundred and twenty talents of gold.
Ne baseeyeeya okutuuka mu Ofiri, ne baleeta ttani kkumi na nnya eza zaabu eri Sulemaani.
