1 Maũndũ 28
1 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.
And David assembled all the chief [men] of Israel, the chief of the judges, and all the chief [men] of the courses [of attendance] on the person of the king, and the captains of thousands and hundreds, and the treasurers, and the lords of his substance, and of all the king's property, and of his sons, together with the eunuchs, and the mighty men, and the warriors of the army, at Jerusalem.
2 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.
And David stood in the midst of the assembly, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and a place for the feet of our Lord, and I prepared [materials] suitable for the building:
3 No Ngai akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Wee ndũgwaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, tondũ wee ũrĩ mũndũ wa mbaara na nĩũitĩte thakame.’
but God said, Thou shalt not build me a house to call my name upon it, for thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.
4 “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.
Yet the Lord God of Israel chose me out of the whole house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; and he chose Juda as the kingly [house], and out of the house of Juda [he chose] the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he preferred me, that I should be king over all Israel.
5 Harĩ ariũ akwa othe, tondũ Jehova nĩaheete ariũ aingĩ-rĩ, nĩathuurĩte mũriũ wakwa Solomoni aikarĩre gĩtĩ kĩa ũthamaki wa Jehova, athamakĩre Isiraeli.
And of all my sons, (for the Lord has given me many sons, ) he has chosen Solomon my son, to set him on the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
6 Aanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ: ‘Mũriũ waku Solomoni nĩwe ũgaaka nyũmba yakwa na nja ciakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩndĩmũthuurĩte atuĩke mũriũ wakwa na niĩ nduĩke ithe.
And God said to me, Solomon thy son shall build my house and my court: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be to him a father.
7 Nĩngahaanda ũthamaki wake nginya tene angĩtũũra arũmĩtie maathani na mawatho makwa ta ũrĩa kũrekwo ihinda rĩĩrĩ.’
And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he continue to keep my commandments, and my judgments, as [at] this day.
8 “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.
And now [I charge you] before the whole assembly of the Lord, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek all the commandments of the Lord our God, that ye may inherit the good land, and leave it for your sons to inherit after you for ever.
9 “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.
And now, [my] son Solomon, know the God of thy fathers, and serve him with a perfect heart and willing soul: for the Lord searches all hearts, and knows every thought: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou shouldest forsake him, he will forsake thee for ever.
10 Gĩĩciirie rĩu, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩwe athuurĩte wa gwaka hekarũ ĩrĩ handũ hatheru. Gĩa na hinya na ũrute wĩra ũcio.”
See now, for the Lord has chosen thee to build him a house for a sanctuary, be strong and do [it].
11 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.
And David gave Solomon his son the plan of the temple, and its buildings, and its treasuries, and its upper chambers, and the inner store-rooms, and the place of the atonement,
12 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.
and the plan which he had in his mind of the courts of the house of the Lord, and of all the chambers round about, [designed] for the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the holy things, and of the chambers for resting:
13 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.
and [the plan] of the courses of the priests and Levites, for all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and of the stores of vessels for ministration of the service of the house of the Lord.
14 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:
And [he gave him] the account of their weight, both of gold and silver [vessels].
15 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:
He gave him the weight of the candlesticks, and of the lamps.
16 ũritũ wa thahabu ya gũthondeka metha ya kũigĩrĩra mĩgate ĩrĩa mĩamũre; na ũritũ wa betha ya gũthondeka metha cia betha;
He gave him likewise the weight of the tables of shewbread, of each table of gold, and likewise of the [tables of] silver:
17 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;
also of the flesh-hooks, and vessels for drink-offering, and golden bowls: and the weight of the gold and silver [articles], and censers, [and] bowls, according to the weight of each.
18 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.
And he shewed him the weight [of the utensils] of the altar of incense, [which was] of pure gold, and the plan of the chariot of the cherubs that spread out their wings, and overshadowed the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
19 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.”
David gave all to Solomon in the Lord's handwriting, according to the knowledge given him of the work of the pattern.
20 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.
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong, and play the man, and do: fear not, neither be terrified; for the Lord my God [is] with thee; he will not forsake thee, and will not fail thee, until thou hast finished all the work of the service of the house of the Lord. And behold the pattern of the temple, even his house, and its treasury, and the upper chambers, and the inner store-rooms, and the place of propitiation, and the plan of the house of the Lord.
21 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.”
And see, [here are] the courses of the priests and Levites for all the service of the house of the Lord, and [there shall be] with thee [men] for every workmanship, and every one of ready skill in every art: also the chief men and all the people, [ready] for all thy commands.
