1 Kings 8

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes, and the leaders of the families of the people of Israel, before himself in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh from the city of David, that is, Zion.

Sai Sarki Solomon ya tattara dattawan Urushalima a gabansa, da dukan shugabannin kabilu, da shugabannin iyalan Isra’ilawa, domin su kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji daga Sihiyona, Birnin Dawuda.

2 All the men of Israel assembled before King Solomon at the feast, in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

Dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka tattaru a gaban Sarki Solomon a lokacin biki, a watan Etanim, wato, wata na bakwai.

3 All the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.

Sa’ad da dukan dattawan Isra’ila suka iso, sai firistoci suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin,

4 They brought up the ark of Yahweh, the tent of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tent. The priests and the Levites brought these things up.

suka haura da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji da kuma Tentin Sujada, da dukan kayayyaki masu tsarkin da suke cikinsa. Firistoci da Lawiyawa suka ɗauko su,

5 King Solomon and all the assembly of Israel came together before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted.

sai Sarki Solomon da dukan taron Isra’ila da suka tattaru kewaye da shi a gaban akwatin alkawari, suka yi ta miƙa hadayar tumaki da bijimai masu yawa da ba a iya lissaftawa, ko ƙirgawa.

6 The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the inner room of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.

Sa’an nan firistoci suka kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji inda aka shirya masa, can ciki cikin haikali, a Wuri Mafi Tsarki, aka kuma sa shi a ƙarƙashin fikafikan kerubobin.

7 For the cherubim spread out their wings to the place of the ark, and they covered the ark and the poles by which it was carried.

Kerubobin sun buɗe fikafikansu a bisa wurin da akwatin alkawarin yake, suka inuwartar da akwatin alkawarin da sandunan ɗaukansa.

8 The poles were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place in front of the inner room, but they could not be seen from outside. They are there to this day.

Waɗannan sandunan sun yi tsawo har ana iya ganin bakinsu daga Wuri Mai Tsarki a gaban wuri mai tsarki na can ciki, amma ba a iya ganinsu daga waje na Wuri Mai Tsarki ba. Suna nan kuwa a can har wa yau.

9 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone that Moses had put there at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the people of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt.

Ba kome a cikin akwatin alkawarin, sai dai alluna na dutse guda biyu waɗanda Musa ya ajiye a ciki tun a Horeb, inda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari da Isra’ilawa bayan sun fito Masar.

10 It came about that when the priests came out of the holy place, the cloud filled the temple of Yahweh.

Sa’ad da firistoci suka janye daga Wuri Mai Tsarki, sai girgije ya cika haikalin Ubangiji.

11 The priests could not stand to serve because of the cloud, for the glory of Yahweh filled his house.

Firistocin kuwa ba su iya yin hidimarsu ba saboda girgijen, gama ɗaukakar Ubangiji ta cika haikalinsa.

12 Then Solomon said, “Yahweh has said that he would live in thick darkness,

Sai Solomon ya ce, “Ubangiji ya ce zai zauna a gizagizai masu duhu;

13 But I have built you a lofty residence, a place for you to live in forever.”

ga shi na gina haikali mai daraja dominka, inda za ka zauna har abada.”

14 Then the king turned around and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

Yayinda dukan taron Isra’ila suke tsattsaye a can, sai sarki ya juya ya albarkace su.

15 He said, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be praised, who spoke to David my father, and has fulfilled it with his own hands, saying,

Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ku yabi Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, wanda da hannunsa ya cika abin da ya yi alkawari da bakinsa ga mahaifina Dawuda. Gama ya ce,

16 'Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house, in order for my name to be there. However, I chose David to rule over my people Israel.'

‘Tun ran da na fitar da mutanena Isra’ila daga Masar, ban zaɓi wani birni a cikin wata kabilar Isra’ila a gina haikali domin Sunana yă kasance a can ba, amma na zaɓi Dawuda yă yi mulkin mutanena Isra’ila.’

17 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.

“Mahaifina Dawuda ya yi niyya a cikin zuciyarsa yă gina haikali saboda Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.

18 But Yahweh said to David my father, 'In that it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well for it to be in your heart.

Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa mahaifina Dawuda, ‘Saboda yana a zuciyarka ka gina haikali domin Sunana, ka yi daidai da ka yi niyyar wannan a zuciyarka.

19 Nevertheless you will not build the house; instead, your son, one who will be born from your loins, will build the house for my name.'

Duk da haka, ba kai ba ne za ka gina haikali, amma ɗanka, wanda yake namanka da jininka, shi ne wanda zai gina haikali domin Sunana.’

20 Yahweh has carried out the word that he had said, for I have arisen in the place of David my father, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as Yahweh promised. I have built the house for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.

“Ubangiji ya kiyaye alkawarin da ya yi. Na gāje Dawuda mahaifina, yanzu kuma ga shi na zauna a kujerar sarautar Isra’ila, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari, na kuma gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.

21 I have made a place for the ark there, in which is Yahweh's covenant, which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.”

Na tanada wuri saboda akwatin alkawari, akwatin da ya ƙunshi alkawarin da Ubangiji ya yi da kakanninmu sa’ad da ya fitar da su daga Masar.”

22 Solomon stood before the altar of Yahweh, before all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward the heavens.

Sai Solomon ya tsaya a gaban bagaden Ubangiji, a gaban dukan taron Isra’ila, ya ɗaga hannuwansa sama,

23 He said, “Yahweh, God of Israel, there is no God like you in the heavens above or on the earth below, who keeps his covenant faithfulness with your servants who walk before you with all their heart;

ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, babu Allah kamar ka a sama can bisa, ko a ƙasa can ƙarƙashi, kai da kake kiyaye alkawarinka na ƙauna ga bayinka waɗanda suke cin gaba a hanyarka da dukan zuciyarsu.

24 you who have kept with your servant David my father, what you promised him. Yes, you spoke with your mouth and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is today.

Ka kiyaye alkawarinka da ka yi wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina. Da bakinka ka yi alkawari, da hannunka kuma ka cika shi, yadda yake a yau.

25 Now then, Yahweh, God of Israel, carry out what you have promised to your servant David my father, when you said, 'You will not fail to have a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants are careful to walk before me, as you have walked before me.'

“Yanzu, ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, bari ka cika wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina alkawaran da ka yi masa sa’ad da ka ce, ‘Ba za ka taɓa rasa wani da zai zauna a gabana a kan kujerar sarautar Isra’ila ba, in kawai’ya’yanka maza sun yi hankali cikin dukan abubuwan da suke yi, don su yi tafiya a gabana kamar yadda ka yi.’

26 Now then, God of Israel, let your word be confirmed, which you have spoken to your servant David my father.

Yanzu fa, ya Allah na Isra’ila, bari maganarka da ka yi wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina tă cika.

27 But will God actually live on the earth? Look, the entire universe and heaven itself cannot contain you—how much less can this temple that I have built!

“Amma anya, Allah, za ka zauna a duniya? Sammai, har ma da saman sammai ba za tă iya riƙe ka ba, balle wannan haikalin da na gina!

28 Yet please respect this prayer of your servant and his request, Yahweh my God; listen to the cry and prayer that your servant prays before you today.

Duk da haka ka ji addu’ar bawanka da kuma roƙonsa don jinƙai, ya Ubangiji Allahna. Ka ji kuka da addu’ar da bawanka yake yi a gabanka a wannan rana.

29 May your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, to the place about which you have said, 'My name and my presence will be there'—in order to listen to the prayers that your servant will pray toward this place.

Bari idanunka su buɗe, su fuskanci wannan haikali dare da rana, wannan wurin da ka ce, ‘Sunana zai kasance a can,’ saboda ka ji addu’ar bawanka in yana fuskantar wannan wuri.

30 So listen to the request of your servant and of your people Israel when we pray toward this place. Yes, listen from the place where you live, from the heavens; and when you listen, forgive.

Ka ji roƙon bawanka da kuma na mutanenka Isra’ila sa’ad da suka yi addu’a, suka fuskanci wannan wuri. Ka ji daga sama, mazauninka, kuma sa’ad da ka ji, ka gafarta.

31 If a man sins against his neighbor and is required to swear an oath, and if he comes and swears an oath before your altar in this house,

“Sa’ad da mutum ya yi abin da ba daidai ba ga maƙwabcinsa, an kuma bukace shi yă yi rantsuwa, sai ya zo ya rantse a gaban bagade a cikin haikalin nan,

32 listen from the heavens and act. Judge your servants, condemning the guilty and bringing what he has done upon his own head. Declare the innocent not guilty and give to him according to his righteousness.

sai ka ji daga sama, ka kuma yi wani abu. Ka shari’anta tsakanin bayinka, ka hukunta mai laifi, ka mai da laifinsa a kansa, mai gaskiya kuma ka nuna shi marar laifi ne bisa ga gaskiyarsa.

33 When your people Israel are defeated by an enemy because they have sinned against you, if they turn back to you, confess your name, pray, and request forgiveness from you in this temple—

“Sa’ad da abokan gāba suka ci mutanenka Isra’ila a yaƙi saboda sun yi maka zunubi, sa’ad da kuma suka dawo gare ka don su furta sunanka, suna addu’a suna roƙo gare ka a wannan haikali,

34 then please listen in the heavens and forgive the sin of your people Israel; bring them back to the land that you gave to their ancestors.

ka ji daga sama, ka gafarta zunubin mutanenka, ka kuma dawo da su ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninsu.

35 When the skies are shut up and there is no rain because the people have sinned against you—if they pray toward this place, confess your name, and turn from their sin when you have afflicted them—

“Sa’ad da sammai sun kulle, babu kuma ruwan sama domin mutane sun yi maka zunubi, sa’ad da suka yi addu’a suna fuskantar wannan wuri, suka kuma furta sunanka, suka juye daga zunubinsu domin ka hore su,

36 then listen in heaven and forgive the sin of your servants and of your people Israel, when you teach them the good way in which they should walk. Send rain on your land, which you have given to your people as an inheritance.

ka ji daga sama, ka kuma gafarta zunubin bayinka, mutanenka Isra’ila. Ka koya musu hanyar da ta dace ta rayuwa, ka kuma aika da ruwan sama a ƙasar da ka ba wa mutanenka gādo.

37 Suppose there is famine in the land, or suppose that there is disease, blight or mildew, locusts or caterpillars; or suppose that an enemy attacks the city gates in their land, or that there is any plague or sickness—

“Sa’ad da yunwa ko annoba ta fāɗo a ƙasar, ko burtuntuna, ko fumfuna, ko fāri, ko tsutsa, ko kuwa abokan gāba sun yi musu kwanto, a wani daga cikin biranensu, duk wata cuta, ko ciwon da ya zo,

38 and suppose then that prayers and requests are made by a person or by all your people Israel—each knowing the plague in his own heart as he spreads out his hands toward this temple.

in suka yi addu’a ko roƙo ta wurin wani daga cikin mutanenka Isra’ila, kowa ya san wahalar zuciyarsa, ya kuma buɗe hannuwansa yana fuskantar wannan haikali,

39 Then listen from heaven, the place where you live, forgive and act, and reward every person for all he does; you know his heart, because you and you only know the hearts of all human beings.

sai ka ji daga sama, mazauninka. Ka gafarta, ka kuma yi wani abu. Ka yi da kowane mutum bisa ga dukan abin da ya yi, tun da yake ka san zuciyarsa (gama kai kaɗai ka san zukatan dukan mutane),

40 Do this so that they may fear you all the days that they live on the land that you gave to our ancestors.

saboda su ji tsoronka a kowane lokacin da suke zaune a ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninmu.

41 In addition, concerning the foreigner who does not belong to your people Israel: When he comes from a distant country because of your name—

“Game da baƙo kuwa wanda shi ba na mutanenka Isra’ila ba, amma ya zo daga ƙasa mai nisa saboda sunanka,

42 for they will hear of your great name, your mighty hand, and your raised arm—when he comes and prays toward this temple,

gama mutane za su ji game da girman sunanka, da ƙarfin hannunka, da kuma hannunka mai iko, sa’ad da ya zo, ya yi addu’a yana fuskantar wannan haikali,

43 then please listen from heaven, the place where you live, and do whatever the foreigner asks of you. Do this so that all the peoples on earth may know your name and fear you, as do your own people Israel. Do this so they might know that this house I have built is called by your name.

ka ji daga sama, mazauninka, ka kuma yi dukan abin da baƙon ya tambaye ka, saboda dukan mutanen duniya su san sunanka, su kuma ji tsoronka, kamar yadda mutanenka Isra’ila suke yi, bari kuma su san cewa wannan gidan da na gina, ya amsa Sunanka.

44 Suppose that your people go out to battle against an enemy, by whatever way you may send them, and suppose that they pray to you, Yahweh, toward the city that you have chosen, and toward the house that I have built for your name.

“Sa’ad da mutanenka suka tafi yaƙi da abokan gābansu, a duk inda ka aike su, sa’ad da kuma suka yi addu’a ga Ubangiji suna fuskantar birnin da ka zaɓa, da kuma haikalin da na gina domin Sunanka,

45 Then listen in the heavens to their prayer and their request, and help their cause.

ka ji addu’arsu da roƙonsu daga sama, ka kuma biya musu bukatansu.

46 Suppose that they sin against you, since there is no one who does not sin, and suppose that you are angry with them and deliver them to the enemy, so that the enemy takes them away captive to their land, whether distant or near.

“Sa’ad da suka yi maka zunubi, gama babu wanda ba ya zunubi, ka kuwa yi fushi da su, ka kuma ba da su ga abokin gāba, wanda ya kwashe su kamammu zuwa ƙasarsa, nesa ko kusa;

47 Then suppose that they realize they are in the land where they have been exiled, and suppose that they repent and seek favor from you from the land of their captors. Suppose that they say, 'We have acted perversely and sinned. We have behaved wickedly.'

in suka canja zuciyarsu a ƙasar da aka riƙe su kamammu, suka tuba, suka kuma roƙe ka a ƙasar waɗanda suka ci su da yaƙi, suka ce, ‘Mun yi zunubi, mun yi abin da ba daidai ba, mun yi mugunta’;

48 Suppose that they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies who captured them, and suppose that they pray to you toward their land, which you gave to their ancestors, and toward the city that you chose, and toward the house that I have built for your name.

in sun juye gare ka da dukan zuciyarsu, da dukan ransu a ƙasar abokan gābansu waɗanda suka kwashe kamammu, suka yi addu’a gare ka, suka fuskanci wajen ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninsu, waje birnin da ka zaɓa, da kuma haikalin da na gina domin Sunanka;

49 Then from heaven, the place where you live, listen to their prayer and their request for help, and you will make matters right for them.

sai ka ji daga sama, mazauninka, ka ji addu’a da roƙonsu, ka kuma biya musu bukatansu.

50 Forgive your people who have sinned against you, and all their transgressions that they have committed against you, and make them objects of compassion before their conquerors, and cause their conquerors to have compassion on them.

Ka gafarta wa mutanenka, waɗanda suka yi maka zunubi; ka gafarta dukan laifofin da suka yi maka, ka kuma sa waɗanda suka ci su a yaƙi su ji tausayinsu.

51 They are your people whom you have chosen, whom you rescued out of Egypt as if from the middle of a furnace where iron is forged.

Gama su mutanenka ne, abin gādonka, waɗanda ka fitar daga Masar, daga tanderu mai narken ƙarfe.

52 May your eyes be open to the request of your servant and to the requests of your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they cry to you.

“Bari idanunka su buɗe ga roƙon bawanka, ga roƙon mutanenka Isra’ila, bari kuma ka saurare su sa’ad da suka yi kuka gare ka.

53 For you separated them from among all the peoples of the earth to belong to you and receive your promises, just as you explained by Moses your servant, when you brought our fathers out of Egypt, Lord Yahweh.”

Gama ka ware su daga dukan al’umman duniya su zama abin gādonka, kamar yadda aka furta ta wurin bawanka Musa sa’ad da kai, ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ka fitar da kakanninmu daga Masar.”

54 So it was that when Solomon had finished praying all this prayer and request to Yahweh, he arose from before the altar of Yahweh, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread out toward the heavens.

Da Solomon ya gama dukan waɗannan addu’o’i da roƙe-roƙe ga Ubangiji, sai ya tashi daga gaban bagaden Ubangiji, inda ya durƙusa da hannuwansa a buɗe waje sama.

55 He stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying,

Ya tashi ya kuma albarkaci dukan taron Isra’ila da babbar murya, yana cewa,

56 “May Yahweh be praised, who has given rest to his people Israel, keeping all his promises. Not one word has failed out of all Yahweh's good promises that he made with Moses his servant.

“Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, wanda ya ba wa mutanensa hutu kamar dai yadda ya yi alkawari. Babu magana guda da ta kāsa cika cikin dukan alkawaransa masu kyau da ya yi ta wurin bawansa Musa.

57 May Yahweh our God be with us, as he was with our ancestors. May he never leave us or forsake us,

Bari Ubangiji Allah yă kasance tare da mu kamar yadda ya kasance da kakanninmu; kada yă taɓa rabu da mu, ko yă yashe mu.

58 that he may incline our hearts to him, to live in all his ways and keep his commandments and his regulations and his statutes, which he commanded our fathers.

Bari yă juye zukatanmu gare shi, don mu yi tafiya a cikin dukan hanyoyinsa, mu kuma kiyaye umarnansa, ƙa’idodinsa, da kuma farillan da ya ba wa kakanninmu.

59 Let these words I have spoken, by which I have made request before Yahweh, be near Yahweh our God day and night, so that he may help the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as every day will require;

Bari kuma waɗannan kalmomina, waɗanda na yi addu’a a gaban Ubangiji, su yi kusa da Ubangiji Allahnmu, dare da rana, don yă biya bukatan bawansa da na mutanensa Isra’ila, bisa ga bukatan kowa,

60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that Yahweh, he is God, and there is no other God!

saboda dukan mutanen duniya su san cewa Ubangiji, shi ne Allah, babu kuma wani.

61 Therefore let your heart be true to Yahweh our God, to walk in his statutes and keep his commandments, as on this day.”

Amma dole ku miƙa zukatanku ga Ubangiji Allahnmu, don ku rayu, ta wurin bin ƙa’idodinsa, ku kuma yi biyayya da umarnansa, kamar yadda kuke yi a wannan lokaci.”

62 So the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifices to Yahweh.

Sai sarki da dukan Isra’ila, suka miƙa hadayu a gaban Ubangiji.

63 Solomon offered a sacrifice of fellowship offerings to Yahweh: twenty-two thousand oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the people of Israel dedicated the house of Yahweh.

Solomon ya miƙa hadaya ta salama ga Ubangiji, shanu dubu ashirin da biyu, tumaki da awaki dubu ɗari da dubu ashirin. Ta haka sarki da dukan Isra’ilawa suka keɓe haikalin Ubangiji.

64 The same day the king set apart the middle of the courtyard in front of the temple of Yahweh, for there he offered the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings, because the bronze altar that was before Yahweh was too small to receive the burnt offering, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings.

A wannan rana sarki ya tsarkake sashe na tsakiyar fili a gaban haikalin Ubangiji, a can kuma ya miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa, hadaya ta gari, da kitsen hadaya ta salama, gama bagaden tagulla a gaban Ubangiji ya yi ƙanƙanta sosai da za a miƙa hadayun ƙonawa, hadayun hatsi, da kuma kitsen hadayun salama.

65 So Solomon held the feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great assembly, from Lebo Hamath to the brook of Egypt, before Yahweh our God for seven days and also for another seven days, a total of fourteen days.

Ta haka Solomon da dukan Isra’ila, wato, babban taro, suka yi bikin a lokacin. Mutane suka zo, tun daga Lebo Hamat har zuwa Rafin Masar. Suka yi biki a gaban Ubangiji Allahnmu, kwana bakwai. Suka kuma ƙara kwana bakwai, kwanaki goma sha huɗu gaba ɗaya.

66 On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king and went to their homes with joyful and glad hearts for all the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David, his servant, and to Israel, his people.

A rana ta biye sai ya sallame mutane. Suka sa wa sarki albarka, sa’an nan suka watse zuwa gida, da farin ciki, da murna a zukatansu saboda kyawawan abubuwan da Ubangiji ya yi domin bawansa Dawuda, da kuma mutanensa Isra’ila.
