1 Chronicles 28
1 And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the divisions that ministered to the king, and the captains of the thousands, and the captains of the hundreds, and the rulers of all the property and the cattle of the king and of his sons, with the court-servants, and the mighty men, and with all the valiant men of the army, unto Jerusalem.
Daudi nĩatũmanĩire anene othe a Isiraeli moongane Jerusalemu, nao nĩo: anene arĩa maarũgamĩrĩire mĩhĩrĩga, na anene a ikundi iria ciatungatagĩra mũthamaki, na anene a ikundi cia o ngiri ngiri na anene a ikundi cia o igana igana, na anene arĩa maarũgamĩrĩire indo ciothe na mahiũ ma mũthamaki na ma ariũ ake o na anene a nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na andũ arĩa maarĩ njamba, na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ ũrũme wa kũrũa mbaara.
2 Then arose king David upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people! I had in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and for the footstool of our God, and I had made preparations to build;
Mũthamaki Daudi nĩarũgamire akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ta thikĩrĩriai, inyuĩ ariũ a baba na andũ akwa. Nĩndatuĩte na ngoro yakwa gwaka nyũmba ĩtuĩke handũ ha kũhurũkio ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova, arĩ ho gaturwa ka makinya ma Ngai witũ, na ngĩĩhaarĩria kũmĩaka.
3 But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build a house unto my name; because thou art a man of war, and blood hast thou shed.
No Ngai akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Wee ndũgwaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, tondũ wee ũrĩ mũndũ wa mbaara na nĩũitĩte thakame.’
4 Yet the Lord the God of Israel made choice of me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; for of Judah had he made choice as ruler, and among the house of Judah, of the house of my father; and among the sons of my father had he pleasure in me to make [me] king over all Israel:
“No Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, nĩathuurire kuuma kũrĩ nyũmba iitũ yothe nduĩke mũthamaki wa Isiraeli nginya tene. Nĩathuurire Juda atuĩke mũtongoria, na kuuma nyũmba ya Juda agĩthuura nyũmba ya baba, na kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a baba akĩona kwagĩrĩire aandue niĩ mũthamaki wa Isiraeli yothe.
5 And of all my sons, —for the Lord hath given me many sons, — hath he made choice of Solomon my son, to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
Harĩ ariũ akwa othe, tondũ Jehova nĩaheete ariũ aingĩ-rĩ, nĩathuurĩte mũriũ wakwa Solomoni aikarĩre gĩtĩ kĩa ũthamaki wa Jehova, athamakĩre Isiraeli.
6 And he hath said unto me, Solomon thy son it is that shall build my house and my courts; for I have made choice of him to be as a son unto me, and I will be indeed to him as a father.
Aanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ: ‘Mũriũ waku Solomoni nĩwe ũgaaka nyũmba yakwa na nja ciakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩndĩmũthuurĩte atuĩke mũriũ wakwa na niĩ nduĩke ithe.
7 Moreover, I will firmly establish his kingdom for everlasting, if he be strong to execute my commandments and my ordinances as it is this day.
Nĩngahaanda ũthamaki wake nginya tene angĩtũũra arũmĩtie maathani na mawatho makwa ta ũrĩa kũrekwo ihinda rĩĩrĩ.’
8 And now before the eyes of all Israel, the congregation of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God, [I admonish you] observe and seek for all the commandments of the Lord your God: in order that ye may keep possession of this good land, and leave it for an inheritance unto your children after you forever.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩu ndamwatha o haha maitho-inĩ ma andũ a Isiraeli othe na kĩũngano gĩkĩ kĩa Jehova, o nake Ngai witũ akĩiguaga: Mũmenyerere, na mũrũmagĩrĩre maathani mothe ma Jehova Ngai wanyu, nĩgeetha mwĩgwatĩre bũrũri ũyũ mwega, na mũkaũtigĩra njiaro cianyu ũtuĩke igai rĩao nginya tene.
9 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with an entire heart and with a willing soul; for all hearts doth the Lord search, and every imagination of the thoughts doth he understand; if thou seek him, he will let himself be found by thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.
“Nawe mũrũ wakwa Solomoni-rĩ, tũũra ũmenyete Ngai wa thoguo, na ũmũtungatagĩre wĩrutĩire na ngoro yaku yothe na kwĩyendera, nĩgũkorwo Jehova atuĩragia ngoro o yothe, na akamenya gĩtũmi o gĩothe kĩa meciiria ma cio. Ũngĩmũrongooria no ũmuone; no ũngĩmũtirika, agaakũrega nginya tene.
10 See now that the Lord hath made choice of thee to build a house for the sanctuary: be strong and do it.
Gĩĩciirie rĩu, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩwe athuurĩte wa gwaka hekarũ ĩrĩ handũ hatheru. Gĩa na hinya na ũrute wĩra ũcio.”
11 Then gave David to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of its apartments, and of its treasuries, and of upper chambers, and of its inner chambers, and of the place of the cover of the ark.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi akĩnengera mũriũ Solomoni mĩcoro ya mwako wa gĩthaku kĩa hekarũ, na nyũmba ciayo, na nyũmba cia kũigwo indo, na tũnyũmba twayo twa igũrũ, na tũnyũmba twa thĩinĩ, na handũ ha kũhoroherio mehia.
12 And the pattern of all that he had in his spirit, concerning the courts of the house of the Lord, and concerning all the chambers round about, concerning the treasuries of the house of God, and concerning the treasuries of the holy things:
Akĩmũnengera mĩcoro ya mĩako yothe ĩrĩa Roho eekĩrĩte meciiria-inĩ make ĩkoniĩ nja cia hekarũ ya Jehova, na ya tũnyũmba tuothe tũrĩa twamĩthiũrũrũkĩirie na tũnyũmba twa kũigwo igĩĩna cia hekarũ ya Ngai, na gwa kũigwo igĩĩna cia indo iria nyamũre.
13 Also concerning the divisions of the priests and the Levites, and concerning all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and concerning all the vessels of service of the house of the Lord;
Ningĩ akĩmũtaarĩria wĩra wa ikundi cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na wa Alawii, na wĩra wothe wa ũtungata thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova, o na wa indo ciothe cia kũhũthagĩrwo ũtungata-inĩ wayo.
14 Concerning the golden vessels, after the weight of the gold, for all the vessels of all manner of service; concerning all the vessels of silver after the weight, for all the vessels of every kind of service;
Nake akĩheana mũigana wa ũritũ wa thahabu ya gũthondeka indo ciothe cia thahabu cia kũhũthagĩrwo ũtungata-inĩ wa mĩthemba o mĩthemba, na ũritũ wa betha ya gũthondeka indo ciothe cia betha cia kũhũthagĩrwo ũtungata-inĩ wa mĩthemba o mĩthemba, ta ũũ:
15 Also the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, after the weight for every candlestick, and for its lamps; and concerning the candlesticks of silver after the weight, for the candlestick, and for its lamps, according to the use of every candlestick;
ũritũ wa thahabu ya gũthondeka mĩtĩ ya thahabu ya kũigĩrĩrwo matawa na matawa mayo, na ũritũ wa o mũtĩ na matawa maguo; na ũritũ wa betha ya gũthondeka o mũtĩ wa betha wa kũigĩrĩra tawa na matawa maguo, kũringana na ũrĩa mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩra matawa wahũthagĩrwo:
16 And the gold after the weight for the tables of the rows of shewbread, for every table; and the silver for the tables of silver;
ũritũ wa thahabu ya gũthondeka metha ya kũigĩrĩra mĩgate ĩrĩa mĩamũre; na ũritũ wa betha ya gũthondeka metha cia betha;
17 Also [concerning] the forks, and the bowls, and the supporters of pure gold; and concerning the golden cups after the weight for every cup; and concerning the silver cups after the weight for every cup;
na ũritũ wa thahabu therie ya gũthondeka hũũma, na mbakũri cia kũminjaminjĩria, na nyũngũ, ũritũ wa thahabu ya gũthondeka o thaani ya thahabu; na ũritũ wa betha ya gũthondeka o thaani ya betha;
18 And concerning the altar of incense the refined gold after the weight; and concerning the pattern of the chariot of the golden cherubim, which spread out [their wings], and over the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
na ũritũ wa thahabu therie ya gũthondeka kĩgongona gĩa gũcinĩrwo ũbumba. O na ningĩ akĩmũnengera mũcoro wa ngaari ya ita, ũguo nĩ kuuga ya makerubi ma thahabu marĩa maatambũrũkĩtie mathagu makahumbĩra ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova.
19 All [this, said David, ] was put in writing from the hand of the Lord, who gave me instruction [respecting] all the works of the pattern.
Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ maya mothe ndĩmandĩkĩte ũrĩa ndatongoririo nĩ guoko kwa Jehova kũrĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, na akĩĩhe ũmenyo wa maũndũ mothe ma mũcoro ũyũ.”
20 And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong, and of good courage, and do [the work]; fear not, and be not dismayed; for the Lord God, [yea, ] my God is with thee: he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou have finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.
Ningĩ Daudi akĩĩra mũriũ Solomoni atĩrĩ, “Gĩa na hinya na wĩyũmĩrĩrie, na ũrute wĩra ũcio. Ndũgetigĩre na ndũgakue ngoro, tondũ Jehova Ngai, o we Ngai wakwa, arĩ hamwe nawe. Ndagagũtiganĩria kana agũtirike nginya rĩrĩa wĩra wothe ũrĩa ũkaarutwo nĩ ũndũ wa ũtungata wa hekarũ ya Jehova ũgaathira.
21 And, behold, the divisions of the priests and the Levites are there for all the service of the house of God; and with thee are in all manner of workmanship all kinds of men distinguished in wisdom, for every manner of service; and the princes and all the people are ready [to obey] all thy words.
Ikundi cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii, nĩciĩhaarĩrie nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wothe wa hekarũ ya Ngai, na mũndũ o wothe ũrĩ na wendo na nĩoĩ wĩra wa ũbundi o wothe nĩagagũteithia wĩra-inĩ ũyũ. Anene na andũ othe nĩmarĩathĩkagĩra wathani waku wothe.”
