1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said, “This is where the house of Yahweh God will be, with the altar for the burnt offerings of Israel.”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nyũmba ya Jehova Ngai ĩgaakwo haha, o na kĩgongona gĩa kũrutagĩrwo maruta ma njino nĩ Isiraeli.”
2 So David ordered his servants to gather together the foreigners living in the land of Israel. He assigned them to be stonecutters, to cut stone blocks, in order to build God's house.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩathana atĩ ageni othe arĩa maatũũraga Isiraeli macookanĩrĩrio, nake agĩthuura kuuma thĩinĩ wao mabundi a mahiga, nĩgeetha mahaarĩrie na maicũhie mahiga ma gwaka nyũmba ya Ngai.
3 David supplied a large amount of iron for the nails for the doors to go in the gateways, and for braces. He also supplied more bronze than could be weighed,
Nake akĩruta igera nyingĩ cia gũthondeka mĩcumarĩ ya mĩrango ya ihingo na ya kũnyiitithania indo cia nyũmba thĩinĩ, na gĩcango kĩingĩ gĩtangĩthimĩka.
4 and more cedar trees than could be counted. (The Sidonians and the Tyrians brought too many cedar logs to David to count.)
Ningĩ akĩruta mĩgogo ya mĩtarakwa ĩtangĩtarĩka, nĩgũkorwo andũ a Sidoni na a Turo nĩmareheire Daudi mĩgogo mĩingĩ.
5 David said, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house that is to be built for Yahweh must be especially magnificent, so that it will be famous and glorious in all other lands. So I will prepare for its building.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.
Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũriũ wakwa Solomoni nĩ mwĩthĩ na ndarĩ na ũũgĩ wa kũigana, nayo nyũmba ĩrĩa ĩgwakĩrwo Jehova yagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkorwo ĩrĩ na ũthaka mũnene na ngumo na riiri maitho-inĩ ma ndũrĩrĩ ciothe. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩ ngũhaarĩria mwako wayo.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩhaarĩria maũndũ ma mwako ũcio na njĩra nene atanakua.
6 Then he called for Solomon his son and commanded him to build a house for Yahweh, the God of Israel.
Ningĩ agĩĩta mũriũ Solomoni akĩmwatha aakĩre Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nyũmba.
7 David said to Solomon, “My son, it was my intention to build a house myself, for the name of Yahweh my God.
Daudi akĩĩra Solomoni ũũ: “Mũrũ wakwa, ndũire nyendaga gwaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai wakwa.
8 But Yahweh came to me and said, 'You have shed much blood and have fought many battles. You will not build a house for my name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight.
No rĩrĩ, kiugo gĩkĩ kĩa Jehova gĩkĩnginyĩrĩra, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, ‘Wee nĩũitĩte thakame nyingĩ na ũkarũa mbaara nyingĩ. Ndũgwaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, nĩ ũndũ nĩũitithĩtie thakame nyingĩ gũkũ thĩ, maitho-inĩ makwa.
9 However, you will have a son who will be a peaceful man. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. For his name will be Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days.
No nĩũkagĩa na mũriũ ũrĩa ũgaatuĩka mũndũ wa thayũ na wa kũhoorera, na nĩngamũhe ũhurũko kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciake mĩena yothe. Rĩĩtwa rĩake ageetwo Solomoni, na hĩndĩ ya ũthamaki wake nĩngaahe Isiraeli thayũ na ũhurũko.
10 He will build a house for my name. He will be my son, and I will be his father. I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.'
Ũcio nĩwe ũgaaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa. Agaatuĩka mũrũ wakwa, na niĩ nduĩke ithe. Ningĩ nĩngahaanda gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene wake kũu Isiraeli nginya tene.’
11 Now, my son, may Yahweh be with you and enable you to succeed. May you build the house of Yahweh your God, as he said you would.
“Na rĩrĩ, mũrũ wakwa, Jehova aroikara nawe, na ũrogaacĩra na wake nyũmba ya Jehova Ngai waku, ta ũrĩa oigire nĩũgeeka.
12 Only may Yahweh give you insight and understanding, so that you may obey the law of Yahweh your God, when he places you in charge over Israel.
Jehova arokũhe ũbaarĩrĩri na ũmenyo rĩrĩa agaakũnengera ũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nĩgeetha ũrũmie watho wa Jehova Ngai waku.
13 Then you will succeed, if you carefully obey the statutes and the decrees that Yahweh gave to Moses concerning Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be discouraged.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo wee nĩũkagaacĩra, ũngĩgatuĩka wa kũmenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo o na watho ũrĩa Jehova aaheire Musa nĩ ũndũ wa Isiraeli. Gĩa na hinya na ũmĩrĩrie. Ndũgetigĩre kana ũkue ngoro.
14 Now, see, at great effort I have prepared for Yahweh's house 100,000 talents of gold, one million talents of silver, and bronze and iron in large quantities. I have also provided timber and stone. You must add more to all this.
“Nĩndutĩte wĩra mũnene wa kũhaarĩria mwako wa hekarũ ya Jehova, ngaigithia taranda 100,000 cia thahabu, na taranda 1,000,000 cia betha, na icango nyingĩ na igera nyingĩ itangĩthimĩka, na mbaũ na mahiga. Nawe no wongerere ingĩ.
15 You have many workmen with you: stonecutters, masons, carpenters, and skillful craftsmen without number of every kind,
Ũrĩ na aruti wĩra aingĩ: aicũhia a mahiga, na aaki a mahiga, na aaki a mbaũ, o hamwe na andũ marĩ na ũũgĩ wa kũruta wĩra o wothe
16 who can work with gold, silver, bronze, and iron. Arise and begin the work, and may Yahweh be with you.”
wa thahabu na wa betha, na wa gĩcango na wa igera, na mabundi maingĩ makĩria. Rĩu kĩambĩrĩrie wĩra, nake Jehova aroikara hamwe nawe.”
17 David also ordered all the leaders of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi agĩatha atongoria othe a Isiraeli mateithie mũriũ Solomoni.
18 “Yahweh your God is with you and has given you peace on every side. He has given the region's inhabitants into my hand. The region is subdued before Yahweh and his people.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Githĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu ndarĩ hamwe na inyuĩ? Na githĩ ndamũheete ũhurũko mĩena yothe? Nĩgũkorwo nĩaneanĩte atũũri a bũrũri ũyũ moko-inĩ makwa, na rĩu bũrũri ũrĩ watho-inĩ wa Jehova na andũ ake.
19 Now seek Yahweh your God with all your heart and your soul. Get up and build the holy place of Yahweh God. Then you can bring the ark of the covenant of Yahweh and the things that belong to God into the house built for Yahweh's name.”
Rĩu mwĩheanei ngoro na muoyo mũcarie Jehova Ngai wanyu. Ambĩrĩriai gwaka handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha Jehova Ngai, nĩgeetha mũrehe ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro na indo iria nyamũre cia Ngai itoonyio hekarũ ĩrĩa ĩgwakwo nĩ ũndũ wa Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova.”
