< 1 Kings 9 >
1 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of building the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, and everything that Solomon desired, which he was pleased to make,
Rĩrĩa Solomoni aarĩkirie gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova o na nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na akĩhingia maũndũ marĩa mothe erirĩirie gwĩka-rĩ,
2 then appeared Yahweh unto Solomon, a second time, —as he appeared unto him, in Gibeon.
Jehova akĩmuumĩrĩra hĩndĩ ya keerĩ, o ta ũrĩa aamuumĩrĩire arĩ Gibeoni.
3 And Yahweh said unto him—I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, wherewith thou hast made supplication before me, I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my Name there unto times age-abiding, —and mine eyes and my heart shall be there, continually:
Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Nĩnjiguĩte kũhooya na gũthaithana kũrĩa ũhooete ũrĩ mbere yakwa; nĩnyamũrĩte hekarũ ĩno, ĩrĩa wee wakĩte, nĩgeetha ndũme Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩtũũre kuo nginya tene. Maitho makwa na ngoro yakwa nĩirĩkoragwo kuo hĩndĩ ciothe.
4 As for thee, therefore, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, with a whole heart and with uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, —and, my statutes and my regulations, wilt keep,
“No wee mwene-rĩ, ũngĩthiiaga mbere yakwa na wĩhokeku wa ngoro na ũrũngĩrĩru ta ũrĩa thoguo Daudi ekaga, na wĩkage ũrĩa ngwathĩte, na ũmenyagĩrĩre kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na mawatho makwa-rĩ,
5 then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel, unto times age-abiding, —as I promised unto David thy father, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man, from off the throne of Israel.
Nĩngahaanda gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli nginya tene, o ta ũrĩa nderĩire thoguo Daudi rĩrĩa ndoigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ndũkaaga mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Isiraeli o naarĩ.’
6 If ye, turn back, ye or your sons, from following me, and keep not my commandments, my statutes, which I have set before you, —but depart and serve other gods, and bow yourselves down to them,
“No wee kana ariũ aku mũngĩkagarũrũka mũtigane na niĩ, na mwage kũmenyerera maathani na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩrĩa niĩ ndĩmũheete na mũthiĩ mũgatungatĩre ngai ingĩ na mũcihooe-rĩ,
7 then will I cut off Israel, from the face of the soil, which I have given unto them, and, the house which I have hallowed for my Name, will I suffer to be carried away from before me, —and Israel shall become a byword and a mockery, among all the peoples;
hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngeheria andũ a Isiraeli bũrũri ũyũ ndĩmaheete na ndiganĩrie hekarũ ĩno nyamũrĩte ĩĩtanio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa. Bũrũri wa Isiraeli ũgaatuĩka wa kuunagwo thimo, na kĩndũ gĩa gũthekererwo nĩ andũ othe.
8 and, this house which had been renowned, shall be desolate, every one that passeth by it, shall be astonished and shall whistle, —and men shall say—For what cause, hath Yahweh done, thus, unto this land, and unto this house?
Na o na gũtuĩka hekarũ ĩno nĩ ya kũgegania-rĩ, arĩa othe makaahĩtũkagĩra ho nĩmakamakaga na manyũrũrie moige atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte Jehova eke bũrũri ũyũ na hekarũ ĩno ũndũ ta ũyũ?’
9 And men will answer—Because they forsook Yahweh their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and bowed themselves down to them, and served them, for this cause, hath Yahweh brought in upon them all this ruin.
Andũ nĩmagacookia moige atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ tondũ nĩmatiganĩirie Jehova Ngai wao, ũrĩa warutire maithe mao bũrũri wa Misiri, makahĩmbĩria ngai ingĩ, na magacihooya na magacitungatĩra; nĩkĩo Jehova amareehithĩirie mwanangĩko ũyũ wothe.’”
10 And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, —the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king;
Thuutha wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, o ihinda rĩrĩa Solomoni aakire nyũmba icio cierĩ; na nĩcio hekarũ ya Jehova na nyũmba ya ũthamaki,
11 Hiram king of Tyre having supplied Solomon with timber of cedar, and with timber of fir, and with gold, according to all his desire, that, then, King Solomon gave unto Hiram twenty cities, in the land of Galilee.
Mũthamaki Solomoni nĩaheire Hiramu mũthamaki wa Turo matũũra mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũu Galili, tondũ Hiramu nĩamũreheire mĩtarakwa yothe, na mĩthengera, na thahabu iria aabatairio nĩcio.
12 And Hiram came out from Tyre to view the cities which, Solomon, had given him, —and they were not pleasing in his eyes.
No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Hiramu ooimire Turo nĩguo akoone matũũra marĩa aaheetwo nĩ Solomoni, ndaakenirio nĩmo.
13 So he said—What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them, Unfruitful Land, [as they are called] unto this day.
Nake akĩũria Solomoni atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa baba, nĩ matũũra matariĩ atĩa maya ũũheete?” Akĩmatua Bũrũri wa Kabuli, na noguo metagwo o na ũmũthĩ.
14 Now Hiram had sent to the king, —a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
Na rĩrĩ, Hiramu nĩarĩkĩtie gũtũmĩra Mũthamaki Solomoni taranda igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ cia thahabu.
15 Now, the following, is an account of the tax which King Solomon raised, for building the house of Yahweh and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, —and Hazor and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro wa ũrĩa Mũthamaki Solomoni aarutithirie andũ wĩra na hinya matekwĩyendera wa gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova na nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na mbenji, na rũthingo rwa Jerusalemu, na Hazoru, na Megido, na Gezeru.
16 Pharaoh king of Egypt, had gone up and captured Gezer, and burned it with fire, the Canaanites also who were dwelling in the city, had he slain, —and had given it as a dowry, to his daughter, wife of Solomon.
Firaũni mũthamaki wa Misiri nĩatharĩkĩire na akĩnyiita Gezeru. Agĩgũcina na mwaki, na akĩũraga andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga kuo, na agĩcooka agĩkũhe mwarĩ, mũtumia wa Solomoni, arĩ kĩheo kĩa ũhiki.
17 So then Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon, the nether,
Nake Solomoni agĩaka Gezeru rĩngĩ. Nĩaakire Bethi-Horoni ya mũhuro, na
18 and Baalath and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land;
Baalathu, na Tadimori rĩa werũ-inĩ, thĩinĩ wa bũrũri wake,
19 also all the store cities, which Solomon had, and the cities for chariots, and the cities for horsemen, —and the desire of Solomon that he was pleased to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land that he ruled over.
o na ningĩ nĩaakire matũũra manene ma kũiga indo ciake na matũũra ma ngaari ciake cia ita na ma mbarathi ciake, na kĩrĩa gĩothe eerirĩirie gwaka Jerusalemu, na Lebanoni, na bũrũri wothe ũrĩa aathanaga.
20 All the people that were left, of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were, not of the sons of Israel;
Andũ othe arĩa maatigaire kuuma kũrĩ Aamori, na Ahiti, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi (andũ acio matiarĩ andũ a Isiraeli),
21 their sons, who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel were not able to devote to destruction, Solomon levied them for a toiling labour-band [which remaineth] unto this day.
ũguo nĩ kuuga njiaro ciao iria ciatigarĩte bũrũri-inĩ, iria andũ a Isiraeli mataaniinĩte, acio nĩo maandĩkithirio nĩ Solomoni matuĩke ngombo ciake cia kũrutithio wĩra na hinya, na noguo gũtũire nginya ũmũthĩ.
22 But, of the sons of Israel, Solomon devoted none to bond-service, —but, they, were men of war, and his servants, and his generals, and his heroes, and captains of his chariots, and his horsemen.
No Solomoni ndaatuire mũndũ o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli ngombo; nĩo maarĩ andũ ake a kũrũa mbaara, na atongoria a thirikari yake, na anene ake, na atongoria a thigari, na aathi a ngaari cia ita, na atwari a cio.
23 These, were the chiefs of the officers, who were over the work, for Solomon, five hundred and fifty, —who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
Ningĩ nĩ kwarĩ atongoria a anene 550 arĩa maarutithagia mawĩra mothe ma Solomoni na makarũgamĩrĩra aruti wĩra.
24 Scarcely had Pharaoh’s daughter come up out of the city of David, into her own house, which he had built for her, when he built Millo.
Rĩrĩa mwarĩ wa Firaũni aambatire kuuma itũũra inene rĩa Daudi agĩthiĩ gũikara nyũmba ya ũthamaki ĩrĩa Solomoni aamwakĩire, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo Solomoni aathondekire mbenji cia kũmĩnyiitĩrĩra.
25 And Solomon used to offer, three times a year, ascending-sacrifices and peace-offerings, upon the altar which he had built unto Yahweh, and to offer incense at the altar which was before Yahweh, —thus Solomon gave completeness unto the house.
Solomoni aarutaga magongona ma njino na ma ũiguano kĩgongona-inĩ kĩrĩa aakĩire Jehova maita matatũ o mwaka, agacinaga ũbumba mbere ya Jehova hamwe namo, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio akahingia watho wa hekarũ.
26 A fleet also, did King Solomon build in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
Ningĩ Mũthamaki Solomoni agĩaka marikabu nyingĩ kũu Ezioni-Geberi, gũkuhĩ na Elothu kũu Edomu, hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Iria Itune.
27 And Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, seamen, having knowledge of the sea, —with the servants of Solomon;
Nake Hiramu agĩtũma andũ ake, atwarithia a marikabu arĩa maamenyete ũhoro wa iria, nĩguo matungatage marikabu-inĩ marĩ na andũ a Solomoni.
28 and they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence, gold, four hundred and twenty talents, —and brought it to King Solomon.
Magĩthiĩ nginya Ofiri, na makĩrehe taranda magana mana ma mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ cia thahabu, iria maatwarĩire Mũthamaki Solomoni.
