< I Na Lii 10 >
1 A LOHE ae la ko alii wahine o Seba i ke kaulana o Solomona, no ka inoa o Iehova, hele mai la oia e hoao ia ia i na mea pohihihi.
Indlovukazi yaseShebha yathi isizwile ngodumo lukaSolomoni lokubambelela kwakhe ebizweni likaThixo, yaya kuye ukuba imlinge ngemibuzo enzima.
2 Hele mai la hoi oia i Ierusalema me ka huakai nui loa, a me na kamelo e halihali ana i na mea ala, a me ke gula he nui loa, a me na pohaku makamae; a hiki mai ia io Solomona la, kamailio mai la oia me ia i na mea a pau iloko o kona naau.
Ekufikeni kwayo eJerusalema yayiqhuba udwende olukhulu, lamakamela ethwele iziyoliso, igolide elinengi kakhulu lamatshe aligugu, yafika kuSolomoni yakhuluma laye ngakho konke lokho okwakusengqondweni yayo.
3 Hoakaka aku la o Solomona i na mea a pau ana i ninau mai ai, aohe mea hunaia i ke alii, ana i hai ole aku ai ia ia.
USolomoni wayiphendula yonke imibuzo yayo, akubanga lalutho olwaba nzima enkosini ukuthi iyichasisele lona.
4 A ike ae la ke alii wahine o Seba, i ke akamai a pau a Solomona, a me ka hale ana i kukulu ai,
Indlovukazi yaseShebha isiyibonile yonke inhlakanipho kaSolomoni lesigodlo ayesakhile,
5 A me ka ai o kona papaaina, a me ka noho ana o kana mau kauwa, a me ke ku ana mai o kona poe lawelawe, me ko lakou kahiko ana, a me kona poe lawe kiaha, a me kona alapii i pii ai oia i ka hale o Iehova; aole ae la he hanu iloko ona.
ukudla okwakusetafuleni lakhe, ukuhlaliswa kwezikhulu zakhe, izinceku zakhe lezembatho zazo, abaphathi benkezo bakhe, leminikelo yokutshiswa ayenzela uThixo ethempelini, yaphela amandla.
6 A olelo ae la oia i ke alii, He olelo oiaio ka'u i lohe ai ma ko'u aina no kau mau hana a me kou akamai:
Yathi enkosini, “Imibiko ebifika ezindlebeni zami elizweni lami ngengqubelaphambili langenhlakanipho yakho iqotho.
7 Aka, aole au i manaoio ia mau olelo, a hiki mai nei au, a ike ko'u mau maka, aia hoi, aole no ka hapalua i haiia mai ia'u; na kela aku kou akamai a me kou pomaikai mamua o ke kaulana a'u i lohe ai.
Kodwa angizange ngikukholwe lokho ngaze ngafika mina ngokwami njalo ngazibonela ngawami amehlo. Ngempela, bengingatshelwanga ngitsho lengxenye nje; ukuhlakanipha kwakho lokuphumelela kwakho kuyayedlula imibiko engayizwayo.
8 Pomaikai kou poe kanaka, pomaikai kau poe kauwa, ka poe e ku mau ana ma kou alo, e hoolohe ana i kou akamai.
Yeka intokozo abalayo abantu bakho! Ziyathokoza iziphathamandla zakho, zona ezima phambi kwakho zizwe inhlakanipho yakho!
9 E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova kou Akua, ka mea i olioli mai ia oe e hoonoho iho ia oe ma ka nohoalii o ka Iseraela; no ko Iehova aloha mau ana i ka Iseraela, nolaila i hoolilo ai oia ia oe i alii e hooponopono, a e hana ma ka maikai.
Udumo kalube kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakho, yena othokoze ngawe wakubeka esihlalweni sobukhosi bako-Israyeli. Ngenxa yothando olunaphakade lukaThixo ku-Israyeli, ukubekile waba yinkosi, ukuze ugcine ukwahlulela ngemfanelo lokulunga.”
10 Haawi ae la hoi ia wahine i ke alii i hookahi haneri mo ka iwakalua talena gula, a mo na mea ala he nui loa, a me na pohaku makamae; aole hiki hou mai ka nui loa o na mea ala me neia a ke alii wahine o Seba i haawi mai ai ia Solomona ke alii.
Yanika inkosi igolide elingamathalenta alikhulu lamatshumi amabili, lenqwabanqwaba zeziyoliso lamatshe aligugu. Akuzange kulethwe iziyoliso ezinengi kangako futhi njengalezo indlovukazi yaseShebha eyazipha iNkosi uSolomoni.
11 A o na moku hoi o Hirama i lawe mai i ke gula mai Opera mai, ua lawe pu mai i na laau alemuga he nui loa, mai Opera mai, a me na pohaku makamae.
(Imikhumbi kaHiramu yaletha igolide livela e-Ofiri; njalo yethula lemithwalo emikhulu yamapulanka amahle lamatshe aligugu.
12 Hana iho la ke alii i na laau alemuga i mau kia no ka hale o Iehova, a no ka hale o ke alii, a me na lira, a me na pesaleteria no ka poe mele; aole hiki mai na laau alemuga e like me neia, aole hoi i ikeia a hiki i keia la.
Inkosi yasebenzisa amapulanka amahle njengezinsika zethempeli likaThixo kanye lesigodlo sobukhosi, lokwenza imihubhe lemiqangala yabahlabeleli. Akuzange kubuye kube lamapulanka amahle amanengi kangako angeniswayo elizweni loba abonwayo selokhu kwaba yilelolanga.)
13 A haawi aku la o Solomona ke alii i ke alii wahine o Seba i kona makemake a pau, i kela mea keia mea ana i noi mai ai; o kana ia i haawi aku ai ia ia e like me ka lima o Solomona ke alii; alaila huli ia a hoi aku i kona aina iho, oia me kana mau kauwa.
INkosi uSolomoni yanika indlovukazi yaseShebha yonke into eyayiyifisa leyayicelayo, ngaphandle kwalokho ayinika khona kuphuma esigodlweni. Yasisuka lodwendwe lwayo yabuyela elizweni lakibo.
14 A o ke kaumaha o ke gula i hiki mai ia Solomona i ka makahiki hookahi, aono haneri, me kanaono kumamaono talena gula.
Isisindo segolide elalizuzwa nguSolomoni minyaka yonke lalingamathalenta angamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisithupha lesithupha,
15 Okoa ka mea i loaa ia ia mai ka poe kalepa, a me ka poe kuai mea ala, a me na alii a pau o Arabia, a me na kiaaina o ka aina.
kungabalwa inzuzo eyayivela emithelweni yabathengisayo labathenga bethengisa kanye leyayivela emakhosini wonke ama-Arabhu kanye lababusi belizwe.
16 A hana iho la o Solomona ke alii i elua haneri paleumauma gula maemae ole, eono haneri sekela gula i lilo i paleumauma hookahi.
Inkosi uSolomoni yenza amahawu amakhulu angamakhulu amabili ngegolide elikhandiweyo; lilinye langena amashekeli angamakhulu ayisithupha.
17 Hana iho la oia i ekolu haneri palekaua gula kuiia; ekolu paona gula i lilo i palekaua hookahi, a waiho ae la ke alii ia lakou maloko o ka hale ma ka ululaau o Lebanona.
Wenza njalo amanye amahawu amancinyane angamakhulu amathathu ngegolide elikhandiweyo, lilinye lilegugu lokuthathu kwegolide. Inkosi yawafaka esigodlweni seHlathi laseLebhanoni.
18 Hana iho la hoi ke alii i nohoalii niho elepani nui, a hoouhi ae la i ke gula maikai loa.
Inkosi yasisenza isihlalo sobukhosi esikhulu sisekelwa ngempondo zendlovu sihuqwe ngegolide elihle.
19 He mau anuunuu eono ko ka nohoalii, a poepoe ae la ke poo o ka nohoalii ma ke kua, a he mau lima ma kela aoao, ma keia aoao ma kahi e noho ai, elua hoi liona e ku ana ma na lima.
Isihlalo sobukhosi sasilezinyathelo eziyisithupha, ngemva kwaso phezulu siyindingilizi. Emaceleni aso womabili sasilezeyamelo zengalo, yileso laleso kumi isilwane eceleni kwaso.
20 He umikumamalua liona i ku malaila ma kela aoao a ma keia aoao maluna o na anuunuu eono; aohe mea like me ia i hanaia ma kekahi aupuni.
Izilwane ezilitshumi lambili zazimi ezinyathelweni eziyisithupha, kusithi esisodwa esinyathelweni ngasinye ngapha langapha emaceleni esinyathelo. Akukho okufanana lalokhu okwake kwenziwa lakuwuphi umbuso.
21 A o ko ke alii, ko Solomona mau kiaha inu he gula no, a me na ipu o ka hale ma ka ululaau o Lebanona, he gula maemae ia; aole mea kala; ua manaoia ia he mea ole i na la o Solomona.
Zonke inkezo zenkosi uSolomoni zazingezegolide, lazozonke izitsha zeSigodlweni saseGuswini laseLebhanoni zazingezegolide elicolekileyo. Akukho okwakwenziwe ngesiliva ngoba ngensuku zikaSolomoni igugu lesiliva lalilincinyane kakhulu.
22 No ka mea, he mau moku no Taresisa ko ke alii ma ke kai, me na moku o Hirama; i na makahiki ekolu, hookahi ka holo ana mai o na moku no Teresisa, e lawe ana mai i ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ka niho elepani, a me na keko, a me na pikoka.
Inkosi yayilemikhumbi yokuthengiselana eminengi eyayisolwandle iphathisana lekaHiramu. Yayiphenduka kanye ngemva kweminyaka emithathu ithwele igolide, isiliva kanye lempondo zendlovu, indwangu lenkawu.
23 A kela aku la o Solomona ke alii i na lii a pau o ka honua i ka waiwai a me ke akamai.
INkosi uSolomoni yawedlula wonke amakhosi omhlaba ngenotho langenhlakanipho.

Umhlaba wonke weza kuSolomoni ukuzokuzwa inhlakanipho uNkulunkulu ayeyifake enhliziyweni yakhe.
25 Halihali mai la lakou kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona makana, na ipu kala, na ipu gula, na kapakomo, na mea kaua, na mea ala, na lio, na hoki, pela i kela makahiki keia makahiki.
Minyaka yonke amlethela izipho zesiliva lezegolide, izembatho, izikhali leziyoliso, lamabhiza kanye lezimbongolo.
26 Hoakoakoa ae la o Solomona i na kaa kaua, a me na hoo hololio: hookahi tausani kaa me na haneri eha kona, a he umikumamalua tausani hoohololio, o na mea ana i hoonoho ai ma na kulanakauhale no na kaa, a me ke alii hoi ma Ierusalema.
USolomoni waqoqa izinqola zokulwa lamabhiza; wayelezinqola zokulwa eziyinkulungwane elamakhulu amane, amabhiza azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili ayewagcina emadolobheni awezinqola zempi amanye egcinwe kuye eJerusalema.
27 Hoolilo ae la ke alii i ke kala maloko o Ierusalema me he mau pohaku la, a hoolilo hoi oia i na laau kedera me he mau laau Sukamorea ma ke awawa i ka nui loa.
Inkosi yandisa isiliva kwangani ngamatshe eJerusalema, lezihlahla zomsedari zanda kwangani yizihlahla zomkhiwa wesikhamore emawatheni ezintaba.
