< 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 Solomon's delight which he 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 Solomon the second time, as He had appeared unto him at Gibeon.
Mukama n’amulabikira omulundi ogwokubiri, nga bwe yamulabikira e Gibyoni.
3 And the LORD said unto him: 'I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before Me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put My name there for ever; and Mine eyes and My heart shall be there perpetually.
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 as for thee, if thou wilt walk before Me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep My statutes and Mine ordinances;
“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 then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever; according as I promised to David thy father, saying: There shall not fail thee a man 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 ye shall turn away from following Me, ye or your children, and not keep My commandments and My statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
“Naye ggwe oba batabani bo bwe munanjeemeranga ne mutakwatanga biragiro byange n’amateeka ge mbawadde, ne mutanula okuweereza bakatonda abalala,
7 then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for My name, will I cast out of My sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a by word among all peoples;
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 which is so high shall become desolate, and every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and when they shall say: Why hath the LORD done thus unto 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 they shall be answered: Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them; therefore hath the LORD brought all this evil upon them.'
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 it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house —
Ku nkomerero y’emyaka amakumi abiri, mu kiseera Sulemaani mwe yazimbira ebizimbe byombi, eyeekaalu ya Mukama, n’olubiri lwe olw’obwakabaka,
11 now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar-trees and cypress-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire — that then king 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 from Tyre to see the cities 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: 'What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother?' And they were called the land of Cabul, 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 the king sixscore talents of gold.
Kiramu yali aweerezza kabaka ttani nnya eza zaabu.
15 And this is the account of the levy which king Solomon raised; to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
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 Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a portion unto 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 And Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon the nether,
Awo Sulemaani n’akizimba buggya; n’azimba ne Besukolooni ekya wansi,
18 and Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
Baalasi ne Tamali mu ddungu,
19 and all the store-cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, 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 Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel;
Abantu bonna abaasigalawo ku Bamoli, n’Abakiiti, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi n’Abayebusi, abataali Bayisirayiri,
21 even their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy, of them did Solomon raise a levy of bondservants, unto this day.
Abayisirayiri be bataayinza kuzikiririza ddala, Sulemaani n’abafuula baddu, n’okutuusa leero.
22 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
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 These were the chief officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, who bore rule over the people that wrought in the work.
Era be baali nga abakungu abaavunaanyizibwanga emirimu gye gyonna, era abo bonna abaavunaanyizibwanga emirimu egyo, awamu nga bawera abakungu ebikumi bitaano mu ataano.
24 But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David unto her house which Solomon had built for her; then did he build Millo.
Awo muwala wa Falaawo bwe yava mu kibuga kya Dawudi n’agenda mu lubiri Sulemaani lwe yamuzimbira, Sulemaani n’azimba obusenge obuwagika bbugwe.
25 And three times in a year did Solomon offer burnt-offerings and peace-offerings upon the altar which he built unto the LORD, offering thereby, upon the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.
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 navy of ships in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth, 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 in the navy his servants, shipmen 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 fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
Ne baseeyeeya okutuuka mu Ofiri, ne baleeta ttani kkumi na nnya eza zaabu eri Sulemaani.
