2 Maũndũ 6
1 Ningĩ Solomoni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova oigĩte atĩ arĩikaraga thĩinĩ wa itu rĩrĩa itumanu.
Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wathi: UJehova wathi uzahlala emnyameni onzima.
2 No rĩrĩ, nĩngwakĩire hekarũ kĩĩrorerwa, handũ haku ha gũtũũra nginya tene.”
Kodwa mina ngikwakhele indlu yokuhlala, lendawo yokuhlala kwakho kuze kube nini lanini.
3 O hĩndĩ ĩyo, kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli kĩrũgamĩte hau, mũthamaki agĩkĩhũgũkĩra na agĩkĩrathima.
Inkosi yasiphendula ubuso bayo, yabusisa ibandla lonke lakoIsrayeli; ibandla lonke-ke lakoIsrayeli lalimi.
4 Ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ: “Jehova arogoocwo, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa ũhingĩtie na moko make ũrĩa erĩire baba Daudi na kanua gake mwene. Nĩgũkorwo oigĩte atĩrĩ,
Yasisithi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyakhuluma ngomlomo wayo kuDavida ubaba yakugcwalisa ngezandla zayo, isithi:
5 ‘Kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarutire andũ akwa Misiri, ndirĩ ndathuura itũũra inene mũhĩrĩga-inĩ o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli atĩ nĩguo njakĩrwo hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa kuo, o na kana ngaathuura mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ atuĩke wa gũtongoria andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
Kusukela ngosuku engakhupha ngalo abantu bami elizweni leGibhithe kangikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli ukwakha indlu, ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, kangikhethanga muntu ukuba ngumkhokheli phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
6 No rĩrĩ, nĩthuurĩte Jerusalemu nĩguo Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩikarage kuo, na nĩ thuurĩte Daudi athamakĩre andũ akwa a Isiraeli.’
Kodwa ngakhetha iJerusalema ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, ngakhetha uDavida ukuthi abe phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
7 “Baba Daudi nĩatuĩte na ngoro yake gwaka hekarũ ĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli.
Njalo kwakusenhliziyweni kaDavida ubaba ukwakhela ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, indlu.
8 No Jehova eerire baba Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Tondũ nĩwaatuĩte na ngoro yaku kũnjakĩra hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa-rĩ, nĩ wekire wega nĩ gwĩciiria ũguo ngoro-inĩ yaku.
Kodwa iNkosi yathi kuDavida ubaba: Njengoba kwakusenhliziyweni yakho ukwakhela ibizo lami indlu, wenze kuhle ngokuthi kwakusenhliziyweni yakho.
9 No rĩrĩ, wee tiwe ũgwaka hekarũ ĩyo, no nĩ mũrũguo ũrĩa uumĩte mũthiimo waku na thakame-inĩ yaku, ũcio nĩwe ũkaanjakĩra hekarũ ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.’
Lanxa kunjalo kawuyikuyakha indlu wena, kodwa indodana yakho ezaphuma ekhalweni lwakho, yiyo ezakwakhela ibizo lami indlu.
10 “Jehova nĩatũũrĩtie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa eeranĩire. Nĩnjookete ithenya rĩa baba Daudi, na rĩu nĩnjikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩa ũthamaki gĩa Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eeranĩire, na nĩnjakĩte hekarũ ĩrĩa ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
INkosi isiqinisile ilizwi layo eyalikhulumayo, ngoba ngivelile esikhundleni sikaDavida ubaba, ngihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli, njengokukhuluma kweNkosi; sengilakhele ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, indlu.
11 Hau nĩho njigĩte ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩrĩa rĩigĩtwo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire na andũ a Isiraeli.”
Ngiwubeke khona umtshokotsho lapho okulesivumelwano seNkosi khona eyasenza labantwana bakoIsrayeli.
12 Ningĩ Solomoni akĩrũgama mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova o hau mbere ya kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli, agĩtambũrũkia moko make.
Wasesima phambi kwelathi leNkosi maqondana lebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welula izandla zakhe.
13 Na rĩrĩ, Solomoni nĩathondekete rũtara rwa gĩcango rwa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha, na mĩkono ĩtano kwarama, na mĩkono ĩtatũ kũraiha na igũrũ, na akĩrũiga gatagatĩ ka nja ĩyo. Akĩrũgama rũtara-inĩ igũrũ na agĩturia maru mbere ya kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli na akĩambararia moko make na igũrũ.
Ngoba uSolomoni wayenze isitubhu sethusi, ubude baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lobubanzi baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lokuphakama kwaso kuzingalo ezintathu, wasimisa phakathi laphakathi kweguma. Wema phezu kwaso, waguqa ngamadolo akhe phambi kwebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welulela izandla zakhe emazulwini,
14 Nake akiuga atĩrĩ: “Wee Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ ũhaana tawe, kũu igũrũ kana gũkũ thĩ, o Wee ũhingagia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku kĩa wendo harĩ ndungata ciaku iria irũmagĩrĩra njĩra yaku na ngoro ciao ciothe.
wathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kakho uNkulunkulu onjengawe emazulwini lemhlabeni, ogcina isivumelwano lomusa ezincekwini zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yazo,
15 Wee nĩũhingĩirie baba Daudi, ndungata yaku, kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku; ũndũ ũrĩa weranĩire na kanua gaku nĩũhingĩtie na guoko gwaku, o ta ũrĩa kũhaana ũmũthĩ.
ogcinele inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo; ngoba wakhuluma ngomlomo wakho usukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengalamuhla.
16 “Na rĩrĩ, Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, hingĩria ndungata yaku baba, Daudi, ciĩranĩro iria wamwĩrĩire rĩrĩa woigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ndũkaaga mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gĩa Isiraeli arĩ mbere yakwa, angĩkorwo ariũ aku nĩmarĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre yagĩrĩire mbere yakwa kũringana na watho wakwa o ta ũrĩa wee ũtũire ũthiiaga.’
Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo usithi: Kakuyikusweleka umuntu kuwe phambi kobuso bami ozahlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli; kuphela uba abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo phambi kwami, ukuthi bahambe ngomlayo wami, njengalokho uhambile phambi kwami.
17 Na rĩrĩ, Wee Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, reke kiugo gĩaku kĩrĩa werĩire ndungata yaku Daudi kĩhinge.
Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kaliqiniseke ilizwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho, kuDavida.
18 “No kũhoteke Ngai agĩtũũranie na andũ gũkũ thĩ? Igũrũ, o na kũũrĩa igũrũ mũno-rĩ, wee ndũngĩiganĩra kuo. Hekarũ ĩno njakĩte-rĩ, ndĩkĩrĩ nini makĩria?
Kambe ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu angahlala labantu emhlabeni? Khangela, amazulu, yebo, amazulu amazulu angekwanele; kangakanani-ke lindlu engiyakhileyo?
19 No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, thikĩrĩria ihooya rĩa ndungata yaku, ĩgĩthaithana ĩiguĩrwo tha, Wee Jehova Ngai wakwa. Igua gũkaya na ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrakũhooya ĩrĩ mbere yaku.
Kodwa phendukela emkhulekweni wenceku yakho lekuncengeni kwayo, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, ukuzwa ukukhala lomkhuleko inceku yakho ekukhulekayo phambi kwakho.
20 Maitho maku maroikara marorete hekarũ ĩno mũthenya na ũtukũ, o handũ haha wee woigire atĩ nĩũgatũma Rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩkoragwo ho. Ũroigua ihooya rĩrĩa ndungata yaku ĩrĩhooyaga ĩrorete handũ haha.
Ukuze amehlo akho avulekele lindlu emini lebusuku, endaweni owatsho ngayo ukuthi uzabeka ibizo lakho khona, ukuthi uwuzwe umkhuleko inceku yakho ewukhulekayo ikhangele kulindawo.
21 Igua gũthaithana kwa ndungata yaku na kwa andũ aku a Isiraeli rĩrĩa mekũhooya marorete handũ haha. Ũigue ũrĩ kũu igũrũ, o kũu gĩikaro gĩaku; na watũigua-rĩ, ũgatũrekera.
Ngakho zwana ukuncenga kwenceku yakho lokwabantu bakho uIsrayeli abazakukhuleka bekhangele kulindawo; yebo, uzwe wena, usendaweni yakho yokuhlala, usemazulwini; lapho usizwa, uthethelele.
22 “Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩhĩtĩria mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake na gũtuĩke no nginya ehĩte, nake oke ehĩtĩre hau mbere ya kĩgongona gĩaku kĩa hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
Uba umuntu esona kumakhelwane wakhe, amethese isifungo ukumenza afunge, njalo isifungo size phambi kwelathi lakho kulindlu,
23 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, na ũtue itua. Tuithania ndungata ciaku ciira, ũtũme ũrĩa ũhĩtĩirie ũrĩa ũngĩ acookererwo nĩ mahĩtia make marĩa ekĩte. Nake ũrĩa ũtehĩtie ũmũtue ndehĩtie na ũndũ ũcio wonanie atĩ ti mwĩhia.
zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, njalo yenza wahlulele inceku zakho, ngokuphindisela okhohlakeleyo, ngokunika indlela yakhe ekhanda lakhe, langokulungisisa olungileyo, ngokumnika njengokulunga kwakhe.
24 “Rĩrĩa andũ aku a Isiraeli maahootwo nĩ thũ tondũ nĩmakũhĩtĩirie nao magũcookerere na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku, mahooe magĩgũthaithaga marĩ hekarũ-inĩ ĩno-rĩ,
Lalapho abantu bakho uIsrayeli betshaywa phambi kwesitha, ngoba bonile kuwe, uba bephenduka, balivume ibizo lakho, bakhuleke bencenga phambi kwakho kulindlu,
25 hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkaamaigua ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ na ũrekere andũ aku a Isiraeli mehia mao na ũmacookie bũrũri ũrĩa wamaheire hamwe na maithe mao.
zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, uthethelele isono sabantu bakho uIsrayeli, ubabuyisele elizweni owalinika bona laboyise.
26 “Rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩkaahingwo, na mbura yaage kuura tondũ wa ũrĩa andũ aku makũhĩtĩirie, mangĩkaahooya marorete handũ haha, na moimbũre rĩĩtwa rĩaku na magarũrũke matigane na mehia mao tondũ nĩũmanyamarĩtie-rĩ,
Lapho amazulu evaliwe, njalo kungelazulu, ngoba bonile kuwe, uba bekhuleka bekhangele kulindawo belivuma ibizo lakho, baphenduke esonweni sabo, nxa ubahluphile,

zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, uthethelele isono senceku zakho lesabantu bakho uIsrayeli, usubafundise indlela enhle abazahamba ngayo; unise izulu elizweni lakho owalinika abantu bakho libe yilifa labo.
28 “Kũngĩkaagĩa ngʼaragu kana mũthiro bũrũri-inĩ, kana mĩgũnda ĩhĩe nĩ mbaa kana mbuu, kana gũũke ngigĩ kana ngũnga, kana thũ imarigiicĩrie itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe rĩao, na mwanangĩko o na ũrĩkũ kana mũrimũ ũngĩgooka-rĩ,
Uba kulendlala elizweni, uba kulomatshayabhuqe wesifo, uba kulokutshisa, lengumane, isikhonyane, lemihogoyi; uba izitha zabo zibavimbezela elizweni lesango labo, loba yiyiphi inhlupheko laloba yiwuphi umkhuhlane;
