< I Na Lii 8 >

1 A LAILA hoakoakoa mai la o Solomona i na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, a me na poo a pau o na ohana, na haku iwaena o na makua o na mamo a Iseraela, io Solomona la ma Ierusalema, e lawe mai lakou i ka pahuberita o Iehova mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, oia o Ziona.
Ngakho iNkosi uSolomoni wamema abadala bako-Israyeli ukuthi beze kuye eJerusalema, bonke abazinhloko zezizwana lezinduna zezimuli zako-Israyeli, ukuthi balethe ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo lisuka eZiyoni, uMuzi kaDavida.
2 Akoakoa mai la na kanaka o Iseraela a pau io Solomona la ke alii, i ka ahaaina, i ka malama Etanima, o ka hiku o ka malama.
Amadoda wonke ako-Israyeli eza ndawonye enkosini uSolomoni ngesikhathi somkhosi ngenyanga ebizwa ngokuthi ngu-Ethanimi, inyanga yesikhombisa.
3 A hele mai na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela, a kaikai ae la na kahuna i ka pahuberita.
Kwathi bonke abadala bako-Israyeli sebefikile, abaphristi bathwala ibhokisi lesivumelwano,
4 A lawe mai hoi lakou i ka pahuberita o Iehova, a me ka halelewa o ke anaina, a me na mea laa a pau iloko o ka halelewa, o ia mau mea ka na kahuna a me ka Levi i lawe mai ai.
njalo basebeletha ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo kanye leThente lokuHlanganela layo yonke imiceciso engcwele iphakathi kwalo. Abaphristi labaLevi bakuthwala lokhu,
5 A o Solomona ke alii, a o ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, i akoakoa mai io na la, me ia pu lakou imua o ka pahuberita, e kaumaha ana i na hipa a me na bipi kauo, aole i haiia, aole e hiki ke heluia no ka lehulehu.
njalo inkosi uSolomoni kanye lebandla lonke lako-Israyeli babebuthene ndawonye phambi kwebhokisi lesivumelwano, benikela ngezimvu langenkomo ababengeke bakwazi ukuloba inani lazo loba ukuzibala.
6 A na na kahuna i hookomo i ka pahuberita o Iehova i kona wahi i kahi e olelo ai o ka hale, i kahi hoano loa, malalo ae hoi o na eheu o na keruba.
Abaphristi basebeletha ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo endaweni yalo engcwele engaphakathi kwethempeli, iNdawo eNgcwelengcwele, basebelifaka ngaphansi kwamaphiko amakherubhi.
7 No ka mea, ua hohola na keruba i na eheu elua maluna o kahi o ka pahuberita, a uhi iho la na keruba i ka pahuberita, a me kona mau laau auamo, maluna ae.
Amakherubhi elula impiko zawo phezu kwendawo yebhokisi lesivumelwano njalo agubuzela ibhokisi lesivumelwano kanye lezibambo zokulithwala.
8 Unuhi ae la lakou i na laau auamo, i ikeia na poo o na laau auamo mai ka mea hoano mai ma ka mua o kahi e olelo ai; aole laua i ikeia mawaho mai, a malaila no laua a hiki i keia la.
Izigodo lezi zazizinde zibonakala nxa useNdaweni eNgcwele phambi kwesiphephelo esingaphakathi, kodwa hatshi nxa ungaphandle kweNdawo eNgcwele; lezo zilokhu zimi njalo lalamuhla.
9 Aohe mea maloko o ka pahuberita, o na papa pohaku elua wale no a Mose i hahao ai ilaila ma Horeba, kahi i hana'i o Iehova i ka berita me na mamo a Iseraela i ko lakou puka ana mai, mai ka aina mai o Aigupita.
Kwakungelalutho ebhokisini lesivumelwano ngaphandle kwezibhebhedu ezimbili zamatshe uMosi ayezifake phakathi kwalo eseHorebhi lapho uThixo enza khona isivumelwano labako-Israyeli ngemva kokuphuma kwabo eGibhithe.
10 Eia kekahi, i ka puka ana mai o na kahuna mailoko mai o kahi hoano, piha ae la i ke ao ka hale o Iehova;
Kwathi abaphristi sebesukile eNdaweni eNgcwele, iyezi lagcwala lagubuzela ethempelini likaThixo.
11 Aole i hiki i na kahuna ke ku e lawelawe, no ke ao; no ka mea, ua piha ko Iehova hale i ka nani o Iehova.
Abaphristi abenzanga inkonzo yabo ngenxa yeyezi, ngoba inkazimulo kaThixo yayigcwele ethempelini lakhe.
12 Alaila olelo ae la Solomona, Ua olelo mai o Iehova e noho oia maloko o ka pouli loa.
Ngakho uSolomoni wathi, “UThixo utshilo ukuba uzahlala eyezini elimnyama;
13 Ua hana io ae nei no wau i hale e noho ai nou, kahi kuonoono nou e noho mau loa'i.
ngempela sengikwakhele ithempeli elibukekayo, indawo ozahlala kiyo kuze kube nini lanini.”
14 Haliu mai la ke alii i kona maka; a hoomaikai mai i ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, e ku ana no hoi ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela;
Kwathi ibandla lonke lako-Israyeli lisemi khonapho, inkosi yaphenduka yalibusisa.
15 I aku la hoi oia, E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i olelo mai me kona waha ia Davida i o'u makuakane, a ua hooko mai nei me kona lima, i ka i ana mai,
Ngakho yasisithi: “Udumo kuye uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, yena ngesandla sakhe ophelelise ukwenza lokho akuthembisa ngowakhe umlomo ethembisa ubaba uDavida. Ngoba wathi,
16 Mai ka la mai i lawe mai ai au i ko'u poe kanaka ka Iseraela mai loko mai o Aigupita, aole au i koho ae i kulanakauhale no loko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela e kukulu i ka hale e noho ai ko'u inoa maloko; aka, ua koho no au ia Davida i luna no ko'u lahuikanaka Iseraela.
‘Kusukela mhla ngikhupha abantu bami abako-Israyeli eGibhithe, bengingakaze ngikhethe idolobho loba kukusiphi isizwana sako-Israyeli ukuthi ngakhelwe ithempeli leBizo lami khona, kodwa ngimkhethile uDavida ukuthi abuse abantu bami bako-Israyeli.’
17 A iloko iho no o ka naau o Davida ko'u makuakane ka manao e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela.
Ubaba uDavida wayelakho enhliziyweni yakhe ukuthi akhe ithempeli leBizo likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
18 A olelo mai la hoi o Iehova ia Davida ko'u makuakane, No ka mea, maloko aku no o kou naau e kukulu i hale no ko'u inoa, he pono oe i kou manao ana pela iloko ou.
Kodwa uThixo wathi kubaba uDavida, ‘Wenza kuhle ngokuba lesifiso sokungakhela ithempeli leBizo lami enhliziyweni yakho.
19 Aka, aole oe o kukulu mai i ka hale: o kau keiki nae, ka mea e puka mai, mailoko mai o kou mau puhaka, oia ke kukulu mai i ka hale no ko'u inoa.
Lanxa kunjalo, kakusuwe ozalakha lelothempeli, kodwa lizakwakhiwa yindodana yakho, eyinyama legazi lakho, yiyo ezakwakha ithempeli leBizo lami.’
20 A ua hooko mai nei no Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai, a ua ku ae nei au ma kahi o Davida ko'u makuakane, a ke noho nei au ma ka noho alii o ka Iseraela e like me ka Iehova olelo hoopomaikai, a ua kukulu ae nei au i ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
UThixo usigcinile isithembiso asenzayo: Sengiyinkosi esikhundleni sikababa uDavida njalo khathesi sengihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sika-Israyeli njengokuthembisa kukaThixo, njalo sengakhele iBizo likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ithempeli.
21 A hana aku no wau i wahi no ka pahuberita, maloko olaila ka berita o Iehova ana i hana'i me ko makou mau kupuna, i kona lawe ana mai ia lakou mailoko mai o ka aina o Aigupita.
Ngilungisile indawo khonaphana eyebhokisi lesivumelwano, kulapho okulesivumelwano sikaThixo asenza labokhokho ekubakhupheni kwakhe kwelamaGibhithe.”
22 Ku ae la hoi o Solomona mamua o ke kuahu o Iehova ma ke alo o ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae i kona mau lima i ka lani.
Ngalokho uSolomoni wema e-alithareni likaThixo phambi kwebandla lonke lako-Israyeli, welula izandla zakhe waziphakamisela ezulwini
23 I aku la oia, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aohe akua ma ka lani iluna, aole hoi ma ka honua ilalo nei, e like me oe ka mea nana e malama mai i ka berita a me ke aloha me kau mau kauwa ka poe e hele ana ma kou alo me ko lakou naau a pau;
wasesithi: Oh “Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kakho uNkulunkulu onjengawe ezulwini phezulu loba emhlabeni ngaphansi, wena ogcina isivumelwano sakho sothando lezinceku zakho, wena oqhubeka ngenhliziyo yonke endleleni yakho.
24 Ka mea nana i kaohi me Davida ko'u makuakane i ka mea au i olelo hoopomaikai mai ai ia ia; ua olelo hoi oe me kou waha, a ua hooko ae nei oe me kou lima, me nei i neia la.
Usigcinile isithembiso sakho encekwini yakho uDavida ongubaba; ngomlomo wakho uthembisile njalo ngesandla sakho ukugcwalisile lokho njengoba kunjalo lamuhla.
25 Ano hoi, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e kaohi oe me kau kauwa o Davida ko'u makuakane, i ka mea au i olelo hoopomaikai ai ia ia, i ka i ana mai, Aole oe e nele i ke kanaka imua o ko'u alo, e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o ka Iseraela, ke malama kau mau keiki i ko lakou hele ana, e hele imua o'u, me oe i hele ai imua o'u;
Khathesi Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lezozithembiso owazenzayo lapho wathi, ‘Awuyikwehluleka loba sekutheni ukuzuza indoda ezahlala esihlalweni sami sobukhosi ko-Israyeli, nxa amadodana akho ezananzelela ukuhamba phambi kwami njengalokhu okwenzileyo wena.’
26 Ano hoi, e ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooiaioia mai kau olelo, au e olelo mai ai i kau kauwa ia Davida ko'u makuakane.
Ngakho khathesi, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kaligcwaliseke ilizwi lesithembiso owalikhuluma kubaba uDavida inceku yakho.
27 Aka hoi, e noho io mai anei ke Akua ma ka honua anei? Aia hoi! aole e hiki i na lani a me na lani o na lani ke apo ia oe; aole loa hoi keia hale a'u i kukulu ae nei.
Kambe uNkulunkulu uzahlala emhlabeni na? Amazulu, kanye lezulu eliphakemeyo, alikulingani. Pho ithempeli leli engilakhileyo lingabe liyini kuwe na!
28 Aka hoi, e maliu mai oe i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i kona nonoi ana, e Iehova ko'u Akua, e hoolohe mai i ka ulono ana a me ka pule a kau kauwa nei e haipule ai imua o kou alo i keia la;
Kodwa-ke akuzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho lokucela kwayo umusa, Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wami. Zwana ukukhala lokukhuleka kwenceku yakho phambi kwakho ngalolusuku.
29 E nana mau mai kou mau maka i keia hale i ka po a me ke ao, i kahi au i olelo mai ai, Malaila auanei ko'u inoa, i hoolohe mai hoi oe i ka pule a kau kauwa e haipule ai i keia wahi.
Sengathi amehlo akho angahlala phezu kwalelithempeli ebusuku lemini, yonale indawo owathi wena, ‘IBizo lami lizakuba khonapha,’ ukuze uzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho ngale indawo.
30 A e hoolohe mai oe i ka nonoi ana o kau kauwa nei, a o kou poe kanaka hoi o Iseraela, i ka wa e pule ai lakou i keia wahi; a e hoolohe mai oe ma kou wahi e noho ai ma ka lani, a lohe oe, e kala mai.
Zwana isikhalazo senceku yakho lesabantu bakho bako-Israyeli nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kule indawo. Zwana usezulwini okuyindawo yakho yokuhlala, njalo nxa usizwa, uthethelele.
31 Ina e hana hewa kekahi kanaka i kona hoalauna, a kau ka hoohiki ana maluna ona i hoohiki oia, a hiki mai ia hoohiki ana ma ke alo o kou kuahu maloko o keia hale;
Nxa umuntu angonela umakhelwane wakhe, afungiswe, abesefunga isifungo phambi kwe-alithari lakho kulelithempeli,
32 Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani, a e hana, a e hooponopono mai i kau mau kauwa, e hoahewa ana i ka mea hewa, e hooili ana i kona aoao maluna o kona poo, a e hoapono ana i ka mea pono, e haawi ia ia e like me kona pono.

33 Aia pepehiia iho kou poe kanaka Iseraela imua o ka enemi, no ka lakou hana hewa ana'ku ia oe, a huli hou lakou ia oe, a hooiaio i kou inoa, a e pule hoi me ke nonoi aku ia oe i keia hale;
Nxa abantu bakho abako-Israyeli behlulwe yisitha ngenxa yokona kwabo phambi kwakho, kuthi nxa sebephendukela ngakuwe bebiza ibizo lakho, bekhuleka njalo becela intethelelo kuwe kulelithempeli,
34 Alaila, e hoolohe oe ma ka lani, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka Iseraela, a e lawe hou mai oe ia lakou i ka aina au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou mau makua.
lapho-ke zwana usezulwini uthethelele izono zabantu bakho bako-Israyeli njalo ubabuyisele elizweni owalinika okhokho babo.
35 Aia hoopaaia ka lani, aole hoi e ua, no ka lakou hana hewa ana ia oe; ina e pule lakou i keia wahi, a e hooiaio i ko inoa, a e haalele hoi i ko lakou mau hewa i kou hookaumaha ana ia lakou,
Nxa amazulu evaleka njalo kungaselazulu ngenxa yokuthi abantu bakho bonile phambi kwakho, njalo nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kule indawo bavume ibizo lakho batshiye izono zabo ngoba ubatshayile,
36 Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka Iseraela, i ao mai oe ia lakou i ka aoao maikai e hele ai lakou, a e haawi mai hoi i ka ua maluna iho o ka aina au i haawi mai ai i waiwai no kou poe kanaka.

37 Ina he wi ma ka aina, ina he mai ahulau, ina he malili, he mae wale, he uhini, a ina he enuhe; a ina e hoopilikiaia e ka enemi ma ka aina o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, ina he ino, a he mai;
Nxa kufika indlala kumbe isifo elizweni, ukukhunta lengumane, isikhongwane lemihogoyi, loba behanqwa yizitha kwelinye lamadolobho abo, loba yincithakalo enganani loba ngumkhuhlane onjani ongeza,
38 A ina e pule me ke nonoi aku kekahi kanaka, o kou poe kanaka a pau paha o ka Iseraela, ka mea i ike i ke ino o kona naau iho, a e hapai i kona mau lima i keia hale;
kuthi lanxa kusenziwa umkhuleko kumbe isicelo ngomunye wabantu bakho bako-Israyeli, ngulowo lalowo ezazela inhlupheko ezinhliziyweni yakhe njalo ephakamisele izandla zakhe kulelithempeli,

41 A, no ka malihini hoi, aole o kou poe kanaka Iseraela, aka, ua hele mai, mai ka aina loihi aku, no kou inoa;
Owezizweni ongasuye omunye wabantu bakho bako-Israyeli kodwa evela kude ngenxa yodumo lwebizo lakho

ngoba abantu bazakuzwa ngelakho ibizo eliqakathekileyo lesandla sakho esilamandla lengalo yakho eyeluliweyo, nxa esiza akhuleke ekhangele kulelithempeli,
43 Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani kou wahi e noho ai, a e hana e like me ka mea a pau a ka malihini i nonoi ai ia oe; i ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua i kou inoa, e weli weli ia oe e like me kou poe kanaka Iseraela; a i ike hoi ua kapaia ma kou inoa keia hale a'u i kukulu ae nei.

44 A ina e hele aku kou poe kanaka e kaua i ko lakou enemi, ma kou wahi e hoouna aku ai ia lakou, a e pule aku lakou ia Iehova i ke kulanakauhale au i koho ai, a i ka hale a'u i kukulu ae nei no kou inoa;
Nxa abantu bakho bephuma besiya empini ukuyakulwa lezitha zabo, loba kungaphi obathuma khona, njalo kuthi nxa bekhuleka kuThixo bekhangele edolobheni olikhethileyo wena kanye lethempelini engalakhela iBizo lakho,
45 Alaila e hoolohe oe i ka lakou pule me ko lakou nonoi ana, a e kokua mamuli o ko lakou pono.
lapho-ke zwana usezulwini umkhuleko wabo lokuncenga kwabo, ubaphathise kulokho.
46 Ina e hana hewa lakou ia oe, (no ka mea, aole kanaka hana hewa ole, ) a huhu mai oe ia lakou, a haawi aku oe ia lakou imua o ka enemi, a lawe pio aku lakou ia lakou i ka aina o ko lakou enemi, he loihi aku paha, he kokoke mai paha;
Nxa bonile phambi kwakho, ngoba kakho ongoniyo njalo uze ubathukuthelele ubanikele ezitheni zabo ezibathumba zibase ezizweni zazo, ezikhatshana leziseduze;
47 Ina e manao lakou i ko lakou naau, ma ka aina i lawe pio ia'ku ai lakou, a mihi lakou, a e nonoi aku ia oe ma ka aina o ka poe e lawe pio aku ia lakou, e i ana, Ua hewa makou, a ua hana ino, ua lawehala makou:

48 A e hoi mai lakou ia oe me ko lakou naau a pau, a me ko lakou uhane a pau, ma ka aina o ko lakou poe enemi naua lakou i alakai pio aku, a e pule aku ia oe i ko lakou aina au i haawi mai ai i ko lakou mau makua, i ke kulanakauhale au i koho mai ai, a i ka hale a'u i kukulu ae nei no kou inoa;
njalo nxa bephendukela kuwe ngezinhliziyo zabo zonke langemiphefumulo yabo elizweni lezitha zabo ezabathumbayo, bakhuleke kuwe bekhangele elizweni owalinika oyise, lasedolobheni owalikhethayo lethempeli engilakhele iBizo lakho,
49 Alaila e hoolohe mai oe ma ka lani kou wahi e noho ai, i ka lakou pule a me ko lakou nonoi ana, a e kokua mamuli o ko lakou pono.

50 A e kala mai i kou poe kanaka i hana hewa aku ia oe, a me ko lakou lawehala ana a pau i hana hewa aku ai lakou ia oe, a e haawi mai ia lakou i ke aloha, imua o ka poe i lawe pio aku ia lakou, i aloha mai lakou ia lakou nei;
Ubathethelele abantu bakho, abakonileyo wena, bathethelele kukho konke ukona kwabo kuwe, wenze izitha zabo zibe lomusa kubo;
51 No ka mea, o kou poe kanaka, a o kou waiwai hoi lakou au i lawe ai mai Aigupita mai, mai waena konu o ka umu no ka hao:
ngoba bangabantu bakho njalo bayilifa lakho, bona owabakhipha eGibhithe, esihogweni esivuthayo esincibilikisa insimbi. (questioned)
52 I kaakaa kou mau maka i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i ka nonoi ana o kou poe kanaka, i luhe mai i ka mea a pau a lakou e noi ai ia oe.
Sengathi amehlo akho angaba phezu kwenceku yakho ukukhala kwayo lokuncengela kwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli, sengathi ungalalela ukukhala kwabo bekhalaza kuwe.
53 No ka mea, ua hookaawale mai oe ia lakou mai na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua, i hooilina nou, me Kau i olelo mai ai ma ka lima o Mose o kau kauwa, i ka wa i lawe mai ai oe i ko makou mau kupuna, mai Aigupita mai, e Iehova ka Haku.
Ngoba wabakhetha phakathi kwezizwe zonke zomhlaba ukuthi babe yilifa lakho, njengoba wakhuluma ngenceku yakho uMosi, lapho wena, Oh Thixo Wobukhosi, wakhipha okhokho bethu eGibhithe.”
54 Eia hoi keia, i ka pau ana'e o ka Solomona haipule ana i keia pule, me keia nonoi ana a pau ia Iehova, ku ae la ia iluna mai mua mai o ke kuahu o Iehova, mai ke kukuli ana ma kona mau kuli me kona mau lima i hohola ae i ka lani.
Kwathi uSolomoni eseqedile imikhuleko le lezikhalazo kuThixo, waphakama wema phambi kwe-alithari likaThixo, lapho ayekade eguqe khona ephakamisele izandla zakhe ezulwini.
55 Ku mai la ia, a hoomaikai mai la i ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela me ka leo nui,
Waphakama wabusisa ibandla labako-Israyeli ngelizwi eliphezulu wathi:
56 E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova ka mea nana i haawi mai i ka maha i kona poe kanaka Iseraela, e like me kana olelo hoopomaikai a pau; aole haule kekahi hua o kana olelo hoopomaikai hemolele a pau ana i olelo ai ma ka lima o Mose kana kauwa.
“Udumo kalube kuThixo, yena olethele abantu bako-Israyeli ukuphumula njengokwethembisa kwakhe. Akukho lokukodwa okungenzekanga kuzozonke izithembiso ezinhle azenza ngenceku yakhe uMosi.
57 E noho Iehova ko kakou Akua me kakou e like me ia i noho ai me ko kakou mau makua; aole e haalele mai ia kakou, aole hoi e kiola ia kakou.
Sengathi uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu angaba lathi njengoba wayelabokhokho bethu; sengathi angaze asitshiya loba asidele.
58 E hoohaliu ae oia i ko kakou naau ia ia e hele ma kona mau aoao a pau, a malama i kana mau kauoha, a me kona mau kanawai, a me kona mau kapu, ana i kauoha mai ai i ko kakou poe kupuna.
Sengathi angaguqulela inhliziyo zethu kuye, sihambe ezindleleni zakhe sigcine lemilayo yakhe, imithetho lezimiso azipha okhokho.
59 A o keia mau olelo a'u i pule ai au ma ke alo o Iehova, e kokoke ae ia io Iehova la ko kakou Akua i ke ao a me ka po, e kokua mau oia mamuli o ka pono o kana kauwa, a me ka pono o kona poe kanaka Iseraela, ma ka mea o ka la i kona la iho;
Sengathi amazwi ami la, engikhuleka ngawo kuThixo, angaba seduze kukaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu emini lebusuku, ukuze aqinise izikhalazo zenceku yakhe lezikhalazo zabantu bakhe bako-Israyeli kusiya ngeziswelo zabo zemihla ngemihla,
60 I ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua, o Iehova ke Akua, aohe e ae.
ukuze abantu bonke bomhlaba bakwazi ukuthi uThixo unguNkulunkulu lokuthi kakho omunye.
61 Nolaila, e hemolele mai ko oukou mau naau ia Iehova ko kakou Akua, e hele ma kona mau kanawai, a e malama hoi i kana mau kauoha, me ia i keia la,
Kodwa inhliziyo zenu azigcwale ukuzinikela kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, ukuphila ngezimiso zakhe lokulalela imilayo yakhe, njengakhathesi.”
62 Kaumaha aku la ke alii, me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau, i na mohai ma ke alo o Iehova.
Ngalokho inkosi labo bonke abako-Israyeli banikela imihlatshelo yabo phambi kukaThixo.
63 Kaumaha aku la hoi o Solomona i ka alana mohnihoomalu, ana i kaumaha ai no Iehova, he iwakalua kumamalua tausani bipi kauo, a he haneri me ka iwakalua tausani hipa: pela i hoolaa aku ai o Solomona, a me na mamo a pau a Iseraela, i ka hale o Iehova.
USolomoni wanikela ngomhlatshelo weminikelo yobudlelwano kuThixo; inkomo ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili, izimvu lembuzi ezizinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili. Ngokunjalo inkosi labo bonke abako-Israyeli banikela ithempeli likaThixo.
64 Ia la no, i hoolaa ai ke alii i ka waena o ka pahale ma ke alo o ka hale o Iehova; no ka mea, malaila i kaumaha ai oia i na mohaikuni, a me na mohaiai, a me ke kaikea o na mohaihoomalu; no ka mea, o ke kuahu keleawe ka mea ma ke alo o Iehova, he uuku ia i ole ai e hiki ia ia na mohaikuni, a me na mohaiai, a me ke kaikea o na mohaihoomalu.
