1 Tokosra David el sapkin tuh mwet kol lun Israel nukewa in toeni nu Jerusalem. Ke ma inge mwet kol ke sruf nukewa, mwet fulat su karingin oakwuk ac orekma lun tokosrai uh, sifen kais sie sou lulap, mwet liyaung ima ac kosro nutin tokosra ac wen natul — aok, mwet kol nukewa inkul sin tokosra, ac captain lun un mwet mweun, ac mwet fulat nukewa — elos tukeni nu Jerusalem.
David summoned to Jerusalem all the leaders of Israel—the leaders of the tribes, the army division commanders in service to the king, the commanders of thousands and the commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and livestock of the king and his sons, along with the court officials, the warriors and all the best fighting men.
2 David el tuyak ye mutalos ac fahk, “Porongeyu, mwet wiuk ac mwet luk. Nga tuh kena musaela sie lohm tuh Tuptup in Wuleang in oakwuki we, su loangeyen nien LEUM GOD lasr. Ac nga akola tari in musai sie tempul in akfulatyal.
King David got to his feet and said, “Listen to me, my brothers and my people! I really wanted to build a house as a resting place for the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, as a footstool for our God. So I made plans to build it.
3 Tusruktu, El tia lela nu sik in oru, mweyen nga sie mwet mweun ac yokla srah nga aksororyela.
But God told me, ‘You are not to build a house to honor me because you are a man of war who has spilled blood.’
4 LEUM GOD, su God lun Israel, El suleyula ac tulik nutik in tokosra fin mwet Israel nwe tok. El sulela sruf lal Judah tuh elos in mwet kol, ac liki inmasrlon mwet Judah El sulela sou lun papa tumuk. Na liki inmasrlon sou sac nufon El tuh insewowo in eisyu ac oru tuh nga in tokosra fin Israel nufon.
However, the Lord, the God of Israel, chose me out of all my father's family to be king of Israel forever. For he chose Judah as the leading tribe, and from among the families of Judah he chose my father's family. From among my father's sons he was pleased to chose me as king over the whole of Israel.
5 El ase wen pus nutik, ac liki inmasrlolos nufon El sulella Solomon tuh elan leum fin Israel, tokosrai lun LEUM GOD.
From all my sons (for the Lord gave me many) the Lord has chosen Solomon my child to sit on the throne and to rule over the Lord's kingdom Israel.
6 “LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Solomon, wen nutum, pa ac musaela Tempul luk. Nga sulella tari tuh el fah wen nutik, ac nga ac fah papa tumal.
He told me, ‘Your son Solomon is the one who will build my house and my courts, because I have chosen him as my son, and I will be his father.
7 Nga ac fah oru tuh tokosrai lal in oan ma pahtpat el fin oaru na in akos ma sap luk, oana ke el oru inge.’
I will make sure his kingdom lasts forever if he single-mindedly keeps my commandments and regulations like he does today.
8 “Ke ma inge, mwet luk, ye mutun God lasr ac ye mutun walil se lun Israel inge, su mwet lun LEUM GOD, nga sap ku nu suwos tuh kowos in arulana karinganang ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD lasr El sapkin nu sesr, kowos in mau ku in mutana in acn wowo se inge, ac filiya tuh in mwe usru nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos nwe tok.”
So now, in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of the Lord, and as God listens, be sure to obey all the commandments of the Lord your God so that you may go on possessing this good land and be able to pass it on as an inheritance to your descendants forever.
9 Na el fahk nu sel Solomon, “Wen nutik, nga sap ku nu sum tuh kom in etu ac akilen God lun papa tomom, ac kulansupwal ke insewowo ac nunak pwaye. El etu nunak lasr ac lungse lasr nukewa. Kom fin sokol, El ac fah liyekomyang, a kom fin forla lukel, El ac fah siskomla nwe tok.
Solomon my son, get to know the God of your father. Serve him with complete dedication and with a willing mind, for the Lord examines every motivation and understands the intention of every thought. If you look for him, you will find him; but it you abandon him, he will reject you forever.
10 Kom in akilen lah LEUM GOD El sulekomla tuh kom in musai Tempul mutal lal. Inge kom in orala, ac oru ke kuiyom nufon.”
Pay attention now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong, and take action!”
11 David el sang plan nukewa ke inkul lun Tempul uh nu sel Solomon — nu ke nien filma ac infukil nukewa saya, oayapa nu ke Acn Mutal na Mutal, su nien eis nunak munas ke ma koluk.
Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the Temple porch, its buildings, storehouses, upper rooms, inner rooms, and the room for the “place of atonement.”
12 El oayapa sang nu sel Solomon plan nukewa ma el oakiya nu ke likinum in Tempul ac lohm nukewa rauneak likinum uh, oayapa fukil in karinganang kufwen mwe orekma lun Tempul ac mwe sang ma kisakinyukla nu sin LEUM GOD.
He also gave him everything he had planned for the courts of the house of the Lord, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the house of God and of those things that had been dedicated.
13 David el oayapa sang nu sel oakwuk lal ke kunokon lun mwet tol ac mwet Levi, nu ke orekma lalos in Tempul, oayapa nu ke karinganang kufwen mwe orekma nukewa in Tempul uh.
In addition he passed on instructions regarding the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the work of service of the house of the Lord, and for all that was used for worship in the house of the Lord.
14 El fahkang pac lupan silver ac gold ma fal in sang orala ahlu ma ac orekmakinyuk ke pacl in alu,
He also laid down how much gold and silver was to be used in making the different objects used in every kind of service,
15 oayapa nu ke kais sie lam ac sukan lam uh,
the weight of the gold and silver lampstands and their lamps, depending on the use of each lampstand;
16 ac nu ke tepu silver, ac nu ke kais sie tepu gold ma bread kisakinyuk nu sin God ac fah oan fac.
the weight of gold for each table of showbread, and the weight of silver for the silver tables,
17 El oayapa fahkang lupan gold nasnas ma ac orekmakinyuk in sang orala fork, bowl, ac sufa, oayapa lupan silver ac gold in sang orek ahlu saya,
the weight of pure gold for the forks, basins, and cups; the weight of each gold dish; the weight of each silver bowl;
18 ac lupan gold nasnas in sang orala loang in kisakin mwe kisa keng, oayapa chariot in us cherub uh su po sohksok lalos ac fah asrosrelik ac sunya Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD.
the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense; and lastly plans for a golden chariot of cherubim that spread their wings, covering the Ark of the Lord's Agreement.
19 Tokosra David el fahk, “Ma inge nukewa oasr ke plan se ma simla fal nu ke ma LEUM GOD El sifacna akkalemye ac ase nu sik in tafwela.”
“All this is in writing from the hand of the Lord, given to me as instructions—every detail of this plan,” said David.
20 Tokosra David el fahk nu sel Solomon, wen natul, “Kom in ku ac pulaik na. Mutaweak orekma an, ac nimet lela kutena ma in kutongya. LEUM GOD, su nga kulansupu, El ac fah wi kom. El ac fah tia siskomla, a El ac fah muta yurum nwe ke kom aksafyela orekma nukewa nu ke Tempul uh.
Then David also told Solomon, “Be strong, be brave, and take action! Don't be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you! He will not let you down or leave you. He will make sure all the work for the service of the house of the Lord is finished.
21 Itukyang tari ma kunen mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ma elos in oru in Tempul uh. Mwet orekma ke kain sroasr nukewa elos akola in kasrekom, ac mwet nukewa wi mwet kol lalos elos muta ye sapsap lom.”
The divisions of the priests and the Levites are prepared for all the service of the house of God. People will be willing to use their different skills to help you in all the work—the officials and all the people will do what you tell them.”
