1 Maũndũ 29
1 Ningĩ Mũthamaki Daudi akĩĩra kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe atĩrĩ: “Mũriũ wakwa Solomoni, ũrĩa Ngai athuurĩte, nĩ mwĩthĩ na ndarĩ na ũmenyo wa kũigana. Wĩra ũyũ nĩ mũnene, tondũ nyũmba ĩno ĩhaana ta ya ũthamaki ti ya mũndũ no nĩ ya Jehova Ngai.
David the king said to all the assembly, “Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great; for the palace is not for man, but for Yahweh God.
2 Nĩnjigithĩtie indo na ũhoti wakwa wothe nĩ ũndũ wa hekarũ ya Ngai wakwa, ngaiga thahabu nĩ ũndũ wa gũthondeka indo cia thahabu, na betha nĩ ũndũ wa gũthondeka indo cia betha, na gĩcango nĩ ũndũ wa gũthondeka indo cia gĩcango, na kĩgera nĩ ũndũ wa gũthondeka indo cia kĩgera, na mbaũ nĩ ũndũ wa gũthondeka indo cia mbaũ, o na tũhiga tũrĩa twĩtagwo onigithi tũrĩa tũtheecagĩrĩrwo indo-inĩ, na tũhiga tũrĩa tũhenagia twa kũgemia nyũmba, na tũhiga twa rangi wa mĩthemba mĩingĩ, na tũhiga twa goro twa mĩthemba mĩingĩ, na mahiga ma nyaigĩ ma mũthemba ũrĩa mwega, indo icio ciothe ngaigithia irĩ nyingĩ mũno.
Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, the bronze for the things of bronze, iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, also onyx stones, stones to be set, stones for inlaid work of various colors, all kinds of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.
3 Makĩria ma ũguo, harĩ kwĩrutĩra gwakwa igũrũ rĩa hekarũ ya Ngai wakwa nĩngũheana kĩgĩĩna gĩakwa mwene gĩa thahabu na betha nĩ ũndũ wa hekarũ ya Ngai wakwa, na icio ngũciheana nyongerere kĩrĩa kĩngĩ njigithĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa hekarũ ĩno theru:
In addition, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, since I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, I give it to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house:
4 ngũheana taranda ngiri ithatũ cia thahabu, o thahabu ĩrĩa ya Ofiri, na taranda ngiri mũgwanja cia betha ĩrĩa therie nĩ ũndũ wa kũgemia thingo cia nyũmba,
even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, with which to overlay the walls of the houses;
5 o na nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa thahabu na indo cia wĩra wa betha ũrĩa wothe ũkaarutwo nĩ mabundi. Na rĩrĩ, nũũ ũkwĩĩamũrĩra Jehova ũmũthĩ na kwĩyendera?”
of gold for the things of gold, and of silver for the things of silver, and for all kinds of work to be made by the hands of artisans. Who then offers willingly to consecrate himself today to Yahweh?”
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo atongoria a nyũmba, na anene a mĩhĩrĩga ya Isiraeli, na anene a ikundi cia ngiri ngiri na anene a ikundi cia igana igana na anene arĩa maarũgamagĩrĩra wĩra wa mũthamaki makĩheana indo na kwĩyendera.
Then the princes of the fathers’ households, and the princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers over the king’s work, offered willingly;
7 Nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa hekarũ ya Ngai nĩmaheanire taranda ngiri ithano, na dariki ngiri ikũmi cia thahabu, na taranda ngiri ikũmi cia betha, na taranda ngiri ikũmi na inyanya cia gĩcango, na taranda ngiri igana rĩmwe cia kĩgera.
and they gave for the service of God’s house of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand darics, of silver ten thousand talents, of bronze eighteen thousand talents, and of iron one hundred thousand talents.
8 Mũndũ o wothe warĩ na tũhiga twa goro nĩatũheanire thĩinĩ wa kĩgĩĩna kĩa hekarũ ya Jehova kĩrĩa kĩamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Jehieli ũrĩa Mũgerishoni.
People with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of Yahweh’s house, under the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.
9 Andũ nĩmakenirio nĩ ũrĩa atongoria ao maamũkĩire ũhoro ũcio na kwĩyendera, tondũ nĩmarutĩire Jehova indo na ngoro yao yothe matekũringĩrĩrio. Mũthamaki Daudi o nake nĩakenire mũno.
Then the people rejoiced, because they offered willingly, because with a perfect heart they offered willingly to Yahweh; and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
10 Daudi nĩagoocire Jehova arĩ mbere ya kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrogoocwo wee, o Wee Jehova, Ngai wa ithe witũ Isiraeli, kuuma tene nginya tene.
Therefore David blessed Yahweh before all the assembly; and David said, “You are blessed, Yahweh, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.
11 Wee Jehova-rĩ, ũnene, na hinya, na riiri, na wathani, na ũkengi nĩ ciaku, nĩgũkorwo kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ igũrũ na thĩ nĩ gĩaku. Wee Jehova, ũthamaki nĩ waku; nĩũtũũgĩrĩtio, ũkanenehio gũkĩra indo ciothe.
Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty! For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as head above all.
12 Ũtonga na gĩtĩĩo ciumaga kũrĩ we; Wee nĩwe wathaga indo ciothe. Hinya na ũhoti wa gũtũũgĩria o na kũhe andũ othe hinya irĩ moko-inĩ maku.
Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all! In your hand is power and might! It is in your hand to make great, and to give strength to all!
13 Na rĩrĩ, Ngai witũ, nĩtũgũgũcookeria ngaatho, na tũkagooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩrĩ riiri.
Now therefore, our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name.
14 “No niĩ ngĩrĩ ũ, nao andũ akwa-rĩ, makĩrĩ a, atĩ no tũhote kũheana na ũtaana ta ũyũ? Indo ciothe ciumaga kũrĩ we, na kĩrĩa twakũhe no kĩrĩa kiumĩte moko-inĩ maku.
But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come from you, and we have given you of your own.
15 Ithuĩ tũrĩ ageni na agendi maitho-inĩ maku, o ta ũrĩa maithe maitũ ma tene othe maatariĩ. Matukũ maitũ gũkũ thĩ matariĩ o ta kĩĩruru, na gũtirĩ mwĩhoko wa gũtũũra.
For we are strangers before you and foreigners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no remaining.
16 Wee Jehova Ngai witũ, ũingĩ wa indo ici twaruta cia gũgwakĩra hekarũ nĩ ũndũ wa Rĩĩtwa rĩaku Itheru ciumĩte guoko-inĩ gwaku, na ciothe no ciaku.
Yahweh our God, all this store that we have prepared to build you a house for your holy name comes from your hand, and is all your own.
17 Niĩ nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Wee Ngai wakwa nĩũtuĩragia ngoro, na nĩũkenagio nĩ ũrũngĩrĩru wa ngoro. Indo ici ciothe ndĩciheanĩte na kwĩyendera na wĩhokeku. Na rĩu ndĩ na gĩkeno nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩonera ũrĩa andũ aya aku marĩ haha makũrutĩire indo na wendo.
I know also, my God, that you try the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things. Now I have seen with joy your people, who are present here, offer willingly to you.
18 Wee Jehova, Ngai wa maithe maitũ Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka na Isiraeli, tũũria wendo ũyũ ũrĩ ngoro-inĩ cia andũ aku nginya tene na ũtũme matũũre magwathĩkagĩra.
Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this desire forever in the thoughts of the heart of your people, and prepare their heart for you;
19 Na ũhotithie mũriũ wakwa Solomoni kwĩrutĩra na ngoro yake yothe, kũmenyagĩrĩra maathani maku, na maũndũ marĩa wee wendaga o na kĩrĩra gĩaku kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na ekage maũndũ mothe nĩguo aake mwako wa nyũmba ĩno ĩhaana ta nyũmba ya ũthamaki, ĩrĩa niĩ njigithĩirie indo ciayo.”
and give to Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.”
20 Ningĩ Daudi akĩĩra kĩũngano gĩothe atĩrĩ, “Goocai Jehova Ngai wanyu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe makĩgooca Jehova Ngai wa maithe mao; makĩinamĩrĩra, na makĩĩgũithia thĩ mbere ya Jehova na mbere ya mũthamaki.
Then David said to all the assembly, “Now bless Yahweh your God!” All the assembly blessed Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads and prostrated themselves before Yahweh and the king.
21 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ makĩrutĩra Jehova magongona na makĩmũrutĩra maruta ma njino, ta ũũ: ndegwa ngiri ĩmwe, na ndũrũme ngiri ĩmwe na tũtũrũme ngiri ĩmwe, o hamwe na maruta mao ma indo cia kũnyuuo na magongona mangĩ maingĩ nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a Isiraeli othe.
They sacrificed sacrifices to Yahweh and offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on the next day after that day, even one thousand bulls, one thousand rams, and one thousand lambs, with their drink offerings and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel,
22 Makĩrĩa na makĩnyua marĩ na gĩkeno kĩnene mũthenya ũcio marĩ hau mbere ya Jehova. Ningĩ makĩamũkĩra Solomoni mũrũ wa Daudi arĩ mũthamaki hĩndĩ ya keerĩ, na makĩmũitĩrĩria maguta mbere ya Jehova atuĩke wa kũmathamakĩra, nake Zadoku atuĩke mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
and ate and drank before Yahweh on that day with great gladness. They made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him before Yahweh to be prince, and Zadok to be priest.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Solomoni agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩa ũthamaki kĩa Jehova, na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩa ithe Daudi. Nake akĩgaacĩra na agĩathĩkĩrwo Isiraeli guothe.
Then Solomon sat on the throne of Yahweh as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.
24 Anene othe, na andũ arĩa maarĩ njamba, hamwe na ariũ a Mũthamaki Daudi othe magĩtĩkĩra Mũthamaki Solomoni amaathage.
All the princes, the mighty men, and also all of the sons of King David submitted themselves to Solomon the king.
25 Jehova agĩtũũgĩria Solomoni mũno maitho-inĩ ma andũ a Isiraeli othe, na akĩmũhe ũthamaki ũrĩ na riiri ũtaahetwo mũthamaki ũngĩ wa Isiraeli mbere ĩyo.
Yahweh magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and gave to him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
26 Daudi mũrũ wa Jesii aarĩ mũthamaki wa Isiraeli guothe.
Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
27 Aathamakĩire Isiraeli mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna, mĩaka mũgwanja yayo agĩthamaka arĩ Hebironi, nayo mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩtatũ agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu.
The time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
28 Aakuire arĩ mũkũrũ mũno, arĩkĩtie gũkenera gũtũũra gwake matukũ maingĩ, na arĩ mũtongu, na agatĩĩo. Mũriũ Solomoni nĩwe wathamakire ithenya rĩake.
He died at a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor; and Solomon his son reigned in his place.
29 Naho ha maũndũ marĩa makoniĩ wathani wa Mũthamaki Daudi kuuma kĩambĩrĩria nginya mũthia, nĩmandĩkĩtwo thĩinĩ wa maandĩko ma Samũeli ũrĩa warĩ muoni-maũndũ, na maandĩko-inĩ ma Nathani ũrĩa mũnabii na maandĩko-inĩ ma Gadi ũrĩa muoni-maũndũ,
Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,
30 hamwe na maũndũ mothe marĩa maakoniĩ ũthamaki wake na ũhoti ũrĩa aarĩ naguo, na ũrĩa maũndũ marĩa maamũthiũrũrũkĩirie maatariĩ na ma Isiraeli na mothamaki ma mabũrũri marĩa mangĩ mothe.
with all his reign and his might, and the events that involved him, Israel, and all the kingdoms of the lands.
