< Kronika 1 29 >
1 Fia David trɔ ɖe ameha la gbɔ azɔ hegblɔ na wo be, “Vinye Solomo, ame si Mawu tia be wòanye Israel fia yeyea la, ɖekakpui dzaa aɖe ko wònye, mekpɔ nuteƒe o, ke dɔ si dze ŋgɔe la nye dɔ gã aɖe elabena gbedoxɔ si wòatu la menye xɔ bubu aɖe ko wòanye o. Yehowa Mawu ŋutɔ ƒe xɔe!
Inkosi uDavida yathi ebandleni lonke: “Indodana yami uSolomoni, yena kanye osekhethwe nguNkulunkulu, usesengumfana njalo usesemutsha. Umsebenzi mkhulu, ngoba lesisakhiwo sobukhosi ayisiso esomuntu kodwa ngesikaThixo uNkulunkulu.
2 Mewɔ nu sia nu si le nye ŋutete me eye medi nu siwo katã hiã na xɔ la tutu, esiwo nye sika, klosalo, akɔbli, gayibɔ, ati, ‘oni’ kple kpe xɔasi bubuwo, adzagba xɔasiwo kple kpeɣi.
Sengilungiselele ngayo yonke inzuzo engilayo ukwakhiwa kwethempeli likaNkulunkulu wami, igolide lokwenza izinto zegolide, isiliva sokwenza izinto zesiliva, ithusi lokwenza izinto zethusi, lensimbi yokwenza izinto zensimbi, lezigodo zokwenza izinto zezigodo, kanye lohlobo lwamatshe e-onikisi, lamatshe okubekwa, lamatshe okucecisa, lalemibala, lenhlobonhlobo zonke zamatshe amahle lamatshe alukhuni amanengi, konke lokhu ngikubuthelele ngakunengi.
3 Azɔ esi wònye ɖe metsɔ ɖokuinye sa vɔe ɖe nye Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu ŋu ta la, metsɔ nye ŋutɔ nye kesinɔnu siwo nye sika kple klosalo kpe ɖe xɔtunu siwo medi da ɖi la ŋu hena nye Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu.
Ngaphandle kwalokho, ngenxa yokutshisekela kwami ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wami, manje senginikela inotho yami yegolide lesiliva ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wami ngaphezu kwakho konke engikulethileyo ethempelini leli elingcwele:
4 “Mena sika nyuitɔ tso Ofir ‘tɔn’ alafa ɖeka kple klosalo nyuitɔ ‘tɔn’ alafa eve blaene be woatsɔ afa ɖe gliawo ŋu
ngamathalenta egolide azinkulungwane ezintathu egolide (igolide lase-Ofiri) lamathalenta esiliva esicengekileyo azinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa okokugudula ngalo imiduli yezindlu,
5 eye sikanuwɔlawo kple klosalonuwɔlawo natsɔ wo awɔ sikanuwo kple klosalonuwo. Azɔ la, ame kae lɔ̃ be yeakɔ ye ɖokui ŋuti egbea na Yehowa?”
okomsebenzi wegolide lokomsebenzi wesiliva lokwawo wonke umsebenzi ozakwenziwa yizingcitshi. Ngakho, ngubani ofuna ukuzinikela kuThixo lamuhla?”
6 Tete ƒometatɔwo, Israel ƒe towo ƒe tatɔwo, asrafo akpe ɖeka kple asrafo alafa ɖeka nunɔlawo kple fia la ƒe dɔnunɔlawo na nu lɔlɔ̃nutɔe.
Abazinhloko zezindlu, izikhulu zezizwana zako-Israyeli, abalawuli bezinkulungwane labalawuli bamakhulu, lezikhulu ezazikhangele ngokuqhutshwa komsebenzi wenkosi bapha ngokuzinikela.
7 Wona nu hena dɔwɔwɔ le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋuti. Wona sika “tɔn” alafa ɖeka blaadre, sika kilogram blaenyi-vɔ-ene kple klosalo “tɔn” alafa etɔ̃ blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃ kple akɔbli “tɔn” alafa ade kple ewo kple gayibɔ “tɔn” akpe etɔ̃ alafa ene blaatɔ̃.
Banikela emsebenzini wethempeli likaNkulunkulu amathalenta azinkulungwane ezinhlanu lezinhlamvu zegolide ezizinkulungwane ezilitshumi, lamathalenta esiliva azinkulungwane ezilitshumi, amathalenta ethusi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasificaminwembili mibili, lamathalenta azinkulungwane ezilikhulu ensimbi.
8 Wogatsɔ kpe xɔasi sɔ gbɔ aɖe na Yehiel, Gerson ƒe dzidzimevi aɖe be, wòatsɔ ade gbedoxɔ la ƒe nudzraɖoƒe.
Loba ngubani owayelamatshe aligugu wawanikela endlini yenotho yethempeli likaThixo yona eyayiphethwe nguJehiyeli umGeshoni.
9 Ame sia ame kpɔ dzidzɔ le lɔlɔ̃nununanakpekpeɖeŋunana ƒe mɔnukpɔkpɔ sia ŋu. Fia David ŋutɔ hã kpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔ.
Abantu baba lokujabula okukhulu bebona ukuzinikela kwabakhokheli babo, ngoba banikela kuThixo ngokukhululeka langezinhliziyo zabo zonke. UDavida inkosi laye wajabula kakhulu.
10 David ganɔ ameha blibo la ŋkume eye wòkafu Yehowa gblɔ bena, “Oo, Yehowa, mía fofo Israel ƒe Mawu, woakafu wò ŋkɔ tegbetegbe.
UDavida wamdumisa uThixo phambi kwebandla lonke esithi: “Kawudunyiswe, Wena Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukhokho, kusukela nininini kuze kube nininini.
11 Tɔwòe nye ŋusẽ, ŋutikɔkɔe, dziɖuɖu kple gãnyenye. Oo, Yehowa, tɔwòe nye nu sia nu si le dziƒo kple anyigba dzi, míekafu wò be nu sia nu le wò dzikpɔkpɔ te.
Bungobakho, Oh Thixo, ubukhulu lamandla lodumo lobukhosi lenkazimulo, ngoba konke okusezulwini lokusemhlabeni kungokwakho. Bungobakho, Oh Thixo, ubukhosi; uphakeme wena phezu konke.
12 Wò ɖeka gbɔ ko kesinɔnuwo kple bubu tsona; wòe nye amegbetɔƒomea dziɖula. Asiwòmee gãnyenye kple ŋusẽ le eye wòe naa gãnyenye kple ŋusẽ ame.
Inotho lodumo kuvela kuwe; ungumbusi wazo zonke izinto. Esandleni sakho kukhona ukuqina lamandla. Kukuwe ukuphakamisa lokupha amandla kubo bonke.
13 Oo, mía Mawu, míeda akpe na wò eye míekafu wò ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la.
Siyakubonga khathesi, Nkulunkulu wethu, silidumisa ibizo lakho elilodumo.
14 “Ke ame kae menye eye ame kawoe nye amewo nye be nàɖe mɔ na mí be míana nane wò? Gbɔwòe nu sia nu si le mía si la tso eye nu si nye tɔwò xoxo la ko míetsɔ na wò!
Kodwa mina ngiyini, bayini abantu bami, ukuthi sinikele ngenhliziyo yonke na? Konke kuvela kuwe, thina sikunike kuphela lokho okuvela esandleni sakho.
15 Elabena, ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko míanɔ afi sia; míenye amedzro le anyigba dzi abe ale si mía fofowo nɔ do ŋgɔ na mí ene. Míaƒe ŋkekewo le anyigba dzi le abe vɔvɔlĩ ene; wo nu yina kaba eye wo teƒe buna.
Singabezizweni lezethekeli emehlweni akho, njengoba labokhokho bethu bonke babenjalo. Insuku zethu emhlabeni ziyafanana lesithunzi, asisilutho, kalikho ithemba.
16 Oo, Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu, nu siwo katã míeƒo ƒu da ɖi be míatsɔ atu gbedoxɔ na wò ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la, tso wò ŋutɔ gbɔwò! Tɔwòe wo katã nye!
Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu, lokhu esesikunikele ngobunengi bakho ekwakhiweni kwethempeli eliyindawo yeBizo lakho eliNgcwele, kuvela esandleni sakho, njalo konke kuvele kungokwakho.
17 Nye Mawu, menya be èdoa amewo kpɔna be yeanya ne wonye ame nyuiwo elabena èkpɔa ŋudzedze le ame nyuiwo ŋu. Mewɔ nu siawo katã kple tameɖoɖo nyui, mekpɔ wò amewo esime wona nuwo lɔlɔ̃nutɔe kple dzidzɔ.
Ngiyazi, Nkulunkulu wami, uhlola inhliziyo njalo uyabuthanda ubuqotho. Zonke lezizinto ngizinikele ngokufisa langenhliziyo yobuqotho. Khathesi ngikhangele ngentokozo abantu bakho abalapha ukuthi banikele ngesifiso kuwe.
18 Oo, Yehowa, mía fofowo, Abraham, Isak kple Israel ƒe Mawu! Na wòanye wò amewo ƒe didi be yewoaɖo to wò ɣe sia ɣi eye nàkpɔ egbɔ be woƒe lɔlɔ̃ na wò metrɔ gbeɖe o.
Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wabobaba o-Abhrahama, lo-Isaka lo-Israyeli, yenza inhliziyo zabantu bakho zime ngalokhu kulangatha, njalo inhliziyo zabo zibe kuwe kuze kube nininini.
19 Na dzi nyui si trɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu la vinye, Solomo, ale be wòawɔ wò sewo dzi le nu suetɔwo kekeake me eye wòakpɔ mɔ na wò gbedoxɔ si tutu ta mewɔ dzadzraɖo siawo katã la ƒe nuwuwu.”
Phana uSolomoni, indodana yami, inhliziyo epheleleyo ukuze agcine imilayo yakho lemithetho yakho lezimiso zakho, lokuthi akhe lesisakhiwo esiyisigodlo mina esengisilungiselele.”
20 Azɔ la, David gblɔ na ameawo katã be, “Mikafu Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la” eye wokafu Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu la. Wode ta agu le Yehowa kple fia la ŋkume.
UDavida wasesithi kulolonke ibandla, “Dumisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.” Ngakho bonke bamdumisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho babo, bathi mbo ngobuso phansi, bekhonza uThixo, behlonipha lenkosi.
21 Esi ŋu ke la, wotsɔ nyitsu akpe ɖeka, agbo akpe ɖeka kple alẽvi akpe ɖeka sa numevɔ na Yehowa. Wosa numevɔ kple vɔsa bubu geɖewo ɖe Israel nu.
Ngosuku olulandelayo banikela imihlatshelo kuThixo leminikelo yokutshiswa: inkunzi eziyinkulungwane, lenqama eziyinkulungwane lamazinyane amaduna ayinkulungwane, leminikelo yokunathwayo, layo yonke eminye imihlatshelo banikela ngokunengi benikelela bonke abako-Israyeli.
22 Emegbe la, woɖu nu eye wono nu le Yehowa ŋkume kple dzidzɔ gã aɖe. Wogaɖo Fia David ƒe vi, Solomo, woƒe Fiae zi evelia kpe ɖe Fia David ŋu. Wosi ami nɛ le Yehowa ŋkume abe woƒe kplɔla ene eye wosi ami na Zadok abe woƒe Nunɔla ene.
Badla banatha ngokujabula okukhulu ngalolosuku phambi kukaThixo. Basebememukela okwesibili uSolomoni indodana kaDavida, bamgcoba phambi kukaThixo ukuthi abe ngumbusi, kuthi uZadokhi abe ngumphristi.
23 Ale Mawu na Fia Solomo xɔ fofoa, David ƒe fiazikpui. Nu dze edzi nɛ ŋutɔ eye Israel blibo la ɖo toe.
USolomoni wasebusa embusweni kaThixo esikhundleni sikayise uDavida. Waphumelela njalo wonke u-Israyeli wamlalela.
24 Dukɔ la kplɔlawo, asrafomegãwo kple nɔviawo katã ka atam be yewoanɔ fia la yome.
Izikhulu zonke kanye lamaqhawe, ndawonye lamadodana eNkosi uDavida bazinikela ngaphansi kombuso weNkosi uSolomoni.
25 Yehowa na Israelviwo katã lɔ̃e, kesinɔnu geɖewo nɔ esi eye bubu nɔ eŋu wu fofoa.
UThixo wamphakamisa kakhulu uSolomoni wamnika isithunzi phezu kwabo bonke abako-Israyeli, njalo wamnika ubukhosi obungazange bube khona esikhosini kwabako-Israyeli.
26 David, Yese ƒe viŋutsu, ɖu fia ɖe Israel blibo la dzi.
UDavida indodana kaJese wayeyinkosi yabo bonke abako-Israyeli.
27 Eɖu fia ɖe Israel dzi ƒe blaene, ƒe adre le Hebron, ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-etɔ̃ le Yerusalem.
Wabusa kwabako-Israyeli iminyaka engamatshumi amane, eyisikhombisa eHebhroni kwathi engamatshumi amathathu lantathu eJerusalema.
28 Etsi ŋutɔ, enye kesinɔtɔ kple bubume gã aɖe hafi ku eye via Solomo ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
Wafa eseluphele eseleminyaka eminengi kakhulu lenotho lodumo; uSolomoni indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
29 Woŋlɔ Fia David ƒe ŋutinya tsitotsito ɖe Nyagblɔɖila Samuel ƒe agbalẽ me, ɖe ŋutinya si Nyagblɔɖila Natan ŋlɔ la me kple esi Nyagblɔɖila Gad ŋlɔ la me.
Izehlakalo zombuso weNkosi uDavida kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekupheleni, zilotshiwe egwalweni lwembali kaSamuyeli umboni, egwalweni lwembali kaNathani umphrofethi kanye lasegwalweni lwembali kaGadi umboni.
30 Nuŋlɔɖi siawo ƒo nu tso Fia David ƒe fiaɖuɖu, eƒe ŋusẽ, nu siwo katã dzɔ ɖe eya ŋutɔ dzi, Israel dukɔ la dzi kple dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã Israel dukɔ ƒe fiawo dzi la ŋu.
Kubalwa ukubusa kwakhe ngokugcweleyo, amandla lakho konke okwakusenzakala kuye lakwabako-Israyeli leminye imibuso yawo wonke amanye amazwe.
