II Oihanaalii 6
1 A LAILA, olelo aku la o Solomona, I mai la o Iehova, e no ho ia iloko o ka pouli nui.
USolomoni wasesithi, “UThixo usetshilo ukuthi uzahlala eyezini elimnyama,
2 Aka, ua kukulu au i hale noho nou, i wahi nou e noho mau loa ai.
sengikwakhele ithempeli elimangalisayo, indawo yakho ozahlala kuyo kuze kube nininini.”
3 Alaila, huli ae la ko ke alii mau maka, a hoomaikai aku la ia i ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela; a ku ae la iluna ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela.
Ibandla lonke lako-Israyeli lisemi khonapho, inkosi yaphenduka yababusisa.
4 Olelo aku la ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana i olelo mai me kona waha ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, a hooko mai hoi me kona mau lima, i ka i ana mai,
Yasisithi: “Kadunyiswe uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, yena osegcwalise ngezandla zakhe ayekuthembise ubaba uDavida ngomlomo wakhe. Ngoba wathi,
5 Mai ka wa mai a'u i lawe mai ai i ko'u poe kanaka mai ka aina mai o Aigupita, aole au i wae aku i kulanakauhale noloko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i wahi e kukulu ai i hale e waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; aole hoi au i wae aku i ke kanaka e noho alii maluna o ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
‘Kusukela ngelanga engakhupha ngalo abantu bami eGibhithe, akuladolobho engalikhethayo laloba kusiphi isizwana sako-Israyeli, ukuba iBizo lami lakhelwe ithempeli khona, njalo angikhethanga loba ngubani ukuba abe ngumkhokheli wabantu bami bako-Israyeli.
6 Aka, ua wae aku au ia Ierusalema i waihoia'i ko'u inoa malaila; a ua wae aku au ia Davida e noho maluna o ko'u poe kanaka, o ka Iseraela.
Kodwa khathesi sengikhethe iJerusalema ukuba iBizo lami libe khonale, njalo sengikhethe uDavida ukuba abuse abantu bami bako-Israyeli.’
7 Aia no iloko o ka naau o Davida, ko'u makua e kukulu i hale no ka inoa o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
Ubaba uDavida wayetshiseka enhliziyweni yakhe ukuba akhele iBizo likaThixo ithempeli, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
8 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Davida, i ko'u makuakane, aia no iloko o kou naau e kukulu i hale no ko'u inoa, a ua pono ia manao iloko o kou naau.
Kodwa uThixo wathi kubaba uDavida, ‘Wenza kuhle ngokuba lesifiso sokungakhela ithempeli leBizo lami enhliziyweni yakho.
9 Aka hoi, aole oe e kukulu i ka hale, o kau keiki ka mea e puka mai ana mai loko mai o kou puhaka, oia ka mea nana e kukulu ka hale no ko'u inoa.
Lanxa kunjalo, kayisuwe ozakwakha ithempeli, kodwa indodana yakho eyinyama yakho legazi lakho, yiyo ezakwakhela iBizo lami ithempeli.’
10 Ua hooko mai o Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai; no ka mea, ua ku ae au mahope o Davida ko'u makuakane, a ke noho nei au maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela e like me ka olelo a Iehova, a ua kukulu au i 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.
11 A ua hookomo au ilaila i ka pahu, aia iloko ka berita o Iehova ana i hana'i me ka poe mamo a Iseraela.
Kulapho engibeke khona ibhokisi, phakathi kwalo kulesivumelwano sikaThixo asenza labantu bako-Israyeli.”
12 Ku ae la iluna o Solomona imua o ke kuahu o Iehova, imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima.
USolomoni wasesima phambi kwe-alithari likaThixo phambi kwalo lonke ibandla lako-Israyeli welula izandla zakhe.
13 No ka mea, ua hana o Solomona i awai keleawe, elima kubita ka loa, elima ka laula, a ekolu ke kiekie, a ua waiho oia ia mea mawae na konu o ka pahale; a ku oia ma luna o ia mea, kukuli ihe la ma kona kuli imua o ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a hohola ae la i kona mau lima i ka lani,
Wayenze isitubhu sethusi, ubude baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lobubanzi baso buzingalo ezinhlanu njalo buzingalo ezintathu ukuyaphezulu, sona wayesimise phakathi laphakathi kweguma elingaphandle. Wema phezu kwesitubhu waseguqa phambi kwalo lonke ibandla lako-Israyeli waphakamisela izandla zakhe ezulwini.
14 Olelo aku la ia, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aohe Akua e like me oe ma ka lani, aole hoi ma ka honua, e malama ana i ka berita a me ke aloha no kau poe kauwa, no ka poe e hele ana imua ou me ko lakou naau a pau.
Wasesithi: “Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kakho uNkulunkulu ofanana lawe ezulwini lasemhlabeni, wena ogcina isivumelwano sakho sothando lezinceku zakho eziqhubeka endleleni yakho ngezinhliziyo ezipheleleyo.
15 Ua malama mai oe i ka mea au i olelo mai ai i kau kauwa ia Davida i ko'u makua. Ua olelo mai oe me kou waha, a ua hooko mai me kou lima e like me ia i keia la.
Usigcinile isithembiso sakho encekwini yakho uDavida ongubaba; ngomlomo wakho uthembisile njalo ngesandla sakho ukugcwalisile lokho njengoba kunjalo lamuhla.
16 Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooko mai no kau kauwa no Davida, no ko'u makuakane i ka mea au i olelo mai ai ia ia, i mai ana, Aole oe e nele i ke kanaka imua o'u e noho maluna o ka noho alii o ka Iseraela, ke malama kau poe mamo i ko lakou aoao e hele ma ko'u kanawai e like me kou he le ana imua o'u.
Ngakho Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba isithembiso owasenza kuye usithi, ‘Kawuyikuswela umuntu ozakuma phambi kwami esihlalweni sobukhosi buka-Israyeli, nxa amadodana akho ezahamba ngokomthetho wami phambi kwami, njengalokhu okwenzileyo wena.’
17 Ano, e Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e hooiaioia ka olelo au i olelo ai i kau kauwa ia Davida.
Ngakho khathesi, Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kaligcwaliseke ilizwi lesithembiso owalikhuluma kuDavida inceku yakho.
18 Aka, he mea oiaio anei, e noho ana ke Akua me kanaka ma ka honua? Aia hoi, he uuku ia oe ka lani, a me ka lani o na lani! Pehea hoi keia hale a'u i hana ai!
Kambe uNkulunkulu uzahlala labantu emhlabeni na? Amazulu, kanye lamazulu aphezulu kakhulu, kawakulingani. Pho lisilela kanganani lelithempeli engilakhileyo!
19 E maliu mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a i ka mea ana i noi aku ai, e Iehova, e ko'u Akua, e hoolohe i ke kahea ana'ku a me ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku nei imua ou:
Kodwa-ke akuzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho lokucela kwayo umusa, Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wami. Zwana ukukhala lokukhuleka kwenceku yakho phambi kwakho.
20 I kaakaa kou mau maka maluna o keia hale i ke ao, a me ka po, maluna o kahi au i olelo ai e waiho mai i kou inoa malaila; e hoolohe i ka pule a kau kauwa e pule aku ai ma keia wahi.
Ebusuku lemini amehlo akho kakhangele lindlu, yona eyindawo owathi iBizo lakho lizakuba kuyo. Akuzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho ngalindawo.
21 E hoolohe mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, ka mea a lakou i noi aku ai ma keia wahi. E maliu mai oe, mai kou wahi e noho ai, mai ka lani mai, e hoolohe mai a e kala mai hoi.
Akulalele ukucela kwenceku yakho lokwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kule indawo. Akuzwe ezulwini, lona eliyindawo yakho yokuhlala; ukuze uthi ungezwa, uthethelele.
22 Ina e hana hewa ke kanaka i kona hoalauna, a kauia maluna ona ka olelo hoohiki i mea nona e hoohiki ai, a komo ka olelo hoohiki imua o kou kuahu iloko o keia hale;
Nxa umuntu angonela umakhelwane wakhe, afungiswe, abesefunga isifungo phambi kwe-alithari lakho kulelithempeli,
23 Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e hooponopono, a e hookolokolo i kau poe kauwa, e hoouku i ka mea hewa, e hoopai no i kona aoao maluna o kona poo iho; a e apono mai i ka mea pono, e haawi ia ia e like me kona pono iho.

24 Ina e hee kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o ko lakou poe enemi, no ka lakou hana hewa ana ia oe; a huli lakou a hooia i kou inoa, a e pule aku a e noi aku imua ou iloko o keia hale;
Kuthi lapho abantu bakho bako-Israyeli behlulwe yizitha ngoba bonile kuwe, akuthi lapho bephenduka befakaza ibizo lakho, bekhuleka njalo becela phambi kwakho kulelithempeli,
25 Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai. a e kala mai i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a e hoihoi ia lakou ma ka aina au i haawi mai ai ia lakou, a me ko lakou poe kupuna.

26 I ka wa e paa ai ka lani, aohe ua, no ka mea, ua hana hewa lakou ia oe; a pule lakou ma keia hale, a e hooia aku i kou inoa, a e huli ae mai ko lakou hewa mai, i ka wa au e hookaumaha ai ia lakou;
Akuthi nxa emazulwini kuvalekile lingasani izulu ngoba abantu bakho bonile kuwe, njalo bathi nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kulindawo befakaza ibizo lakho betshiya izono zabo ngoba ubajezisile,
27 Alaila, e hoolohe mai oe mai ka lani mai, a e kala mai i ka hewa o kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela i ka wa e ao ai oe ia lakou i ka aoao maikai kahi a lakou e hele ai; a e haawi mai oe i ka ua maluna o ka aina au i haawi ai i kou poe kanaka i mea e ili mau ana no lakou.

28 Ina he kau wi ma ka aina, he ahulau, he huaai malili paha, a me ka punahelu, a me na uhini, a me na peelua; ina o puni lakou i ko lakou poe enemi, ma ka aina ma ko lakou mau ipuka; o ka eha a me ke kaumaha a pau;
Nxa kufika indlala loba isifo elizweni, loba ingumane loba isikhwekhwe, intethe loba isikhongwane, loba izitha zibavimbezela loba kukuyiphi imizi yabo, loba kufika incithakalo kumbe umkhuhlane bani,
29 O ka pule a pau, a me ke noi ana'ku a pau a kela kanaka keia kanaka a kou poe kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela e pule aku ai, aia ike kela mea keia mea i kona eha a me kona kaumaha, a e hohola ia i ko na mau lima ma keia hale;
