1 Bassekabaka 11

1 Kabaka Sulemaani yayagala abakazi bannaggwanga bangi: Abamowaabu, n’Abamoni, n’Abayedomu, n’Abasidoni, n’Abakiiti, ng’okwo kw’ogasse muwala wa Falaawo,

Farao babea no akyi no, ɔhene Salomo dɔɔ ananafo mmea bebree a na wɔyɛ Moabfo, Amonfo, Edomfo, Sidonfo ne Hetifo.

2 nga bava mu mawanga Mukama ge yayogerako ng’alabula Abayisirayiri nti, “Temufumbiriganwanga nabo kubanga tebalirema kukyusa mitima gyammwe okugoberera bakatonda baabwe.” Naye omutima gwa Sulemaani ne guwugulwa, era naabagala.

Na Awurade aka no pefee akyerɛ ne nkurɔfo se, wɔne saa aman no nni aware, efisɛ mmea a wɔbɛware wɔn no bɛtwetwe wɔn ama wɔakɔsom wɔn anyame. Nanso Salomo waree wɔn ara.

3 Sulemaani yalina abakyala lusanvu abambejja, n’abakazi abalala ebikumi bisatu, era abo bonna ne bamuwabya.

Na ɔwɔ yerenom ahanson ne mpenanom ahaasa. Na ampa ara wɔtwee ne kra fii Awurade ho.

4 Mu bisera bya Sulemaani eby’obukadde, bakyala be ne basendasenda omutima gwe okugoberera bakatonda abalala.

Bere a Salomo bɔɔ akwakoraa no, wɔtwee ne koma kɔɔ anyame afoforo so, na wamfa ne ho anto Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn so, sɛnea nʼagya Dawid yɛe no.

5 N’atanula okusinza Asutoleesi katonda omukazi ow’Abasidoni, ne Mirukomu katonda ow’omuzizo ow’Abamoni.

Salomo dii Sidonfo bosombea Astoret ne Amonfo nyame Molek a na wokyi no no akyi.

6 Sulemaani n’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama n’atagobererera ddala Mukama, n’atakola nga Dawudi kitaawe bwe yakola.

Enti Salomo yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Wanni Awurade akyi, sɛnea nʼagya Dawid yɛe no.

7 Sulemaani n’azimba ebifo ebigulumivu ku kasozi akali ebuvanjuba w’e Yerusaalemi, ng’abizimbira Kemosi katonda ow’omuzizo ow’Abamowaabu, ne Moleki katonda ow’omuzizo ow’Abamoni.

Salomo sii abosonnan maa Moabfo nyame Kemos, a na ɔyɛ akyiwade, wɔ Ngo Bepɔw a ɛwɔ Yerusalem apuei fam, na osii bi nso maa Amonfo nyame Molek, a na ɔyɛ akyiwade.

8 Bakyala be bonna bannamawanga, abaayoterezanga obubaane eri bakatonda baabwe, nabo n’abakolera bw’atyo.

Salomo sisii abosonnan yi maa nʼananayerenom nyinaa, sɛ wɔnhyew nnuhuam, na wɔmmɔ afɔre mma wɔn anyame wɔ hɔ.

9 Mukama n’asunguwalira Sulemaani kubanga omutima gwe gwava ku Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, eyamulabikira emirundi ebiri.

Na Awurade bo fuw Salomo, efisɛ ne koma adan afi Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, a wada ne ho adi akyerɛ no mprenu no ho.

10 Newaakubadde nga Mukama yali alabudde Sulemaani obutagoberera bakatonda abalala, Sulemaani teyagondera kiragiro kya Mukama.

Ɔbɔɔ Salomo kɔkɔ sɛ onni anyame afoforo akyi, nanso Salomo anni Awurade ahyɛde so.

11 Mukama kyeyava agamba Sulemaani nti, “Olw’empisa zo, n’obutakuuma ndagaano yange newaakubadde okugondera amateeka gange ge nakulagira, ndikuggyako obwakabaka, ne mbuwa omu ku baddu bo.

Enti Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Salomo se, “Esiane sɛ woanni mʼapam so, na woapo me mmara nti, ampa ara, mɛtew ahemman no afi wo ho, na mede ama wʼasomfo no mu baako.

12 Naye olwa Dawudi kitaawo, ekyo sirikikola mu biro byo, ndikikola, mutabani wo atandise okufuga.

Nanso esiane wʼagya Dawid nti, merenyɛ saa bere a wote ase. Megye ahemman no afi wo babarima nsam.

13 Ate era sirimuggyako bwakabaka bwonna, naye ndimuwa ekika kimu ku lwa Dawudi omuddu wange, n’olwa Yerusaalemi, kye neerondera.”

Ɛno mpo, mɛma wadi abusuakuw baako so, esiane me somfo Dawid ne kuropɔn Yerusalem a mayi asi hɔ no nti.”

14 Awo Mukama n’ayimusiza Sulemaani omulabe erinnya lye Kadadi Omwedomu, ow’olulyo olulangira mu Edomu.

Na Awurade pagyaw Edomni Hadad a na ofi Edom adehyebusua mu, sɛ ɔnyɛ ɔtamfo ntia Salomo.

15 Emabegako Dawudi bwe yali alwana ne Edomu, Yowaabu omuduumizi w’eggye eyali agenze okuziika Abayisirayiri abaali battiddwa, yasigalayo n’atta abasajja bonna mu Edomu.

Mfe bi a atwa mu no, Dawid ne Yoab a na ɔyɛ nʼakofo so sahene no kɔɔ Edom kosiee Israelfo bi a wɔtotɔɔ akono no. Bere a wɔwɔ hɔ no, anka Israel asraafo no reyɛ akunkum mmarima a wɔwɔ Edom nyinaa.

16 Yowaabu n’Abayisirayiri bonna be yagenda nabo ne babeera eyo okumala emyezi mukaaga, okutuusa lwe baasaanyaawo abasajja bonna mu Edomu.

Yoab ne asraafo no tenaa hɔ asram asia kunkum wɔn.

17 Naye Kadadi, ng’akyali mulenzi, yaddukira e Misiri n’abakungu abamu Abayedomu abaweerezanga kitaawe.

Nanso Hadad ne nʼagya adehye ntuanofo no mu kakra guanee. (Saa bere no na Hadad yɛ abofra ketewa bi.)

18 Ne bagolokoka okuva mu Midiyaani okugenda e Palani. Ne bafuna abasajja okuva mu Palani, ne bagenda e Misiri, ewa Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, eyamuwa ennyumba ne ttaka, era n’amuwanga n’emmere ey’okulya.

Woguan fii Midian kɔɔ Paran. Paran hɔ na ebinom kɔkaa wɔn ho. Afei, wɔkɔɔ Misraim, Farao nkyɛn, na ɔmaa wɔn baabi a wɔbɛtena, aduan ne asase.

19 Awo Kadadi n’alaba ekisa mu maaso ga Falaawo n’okumuwa n’amuwa mulamu we, muganda wa Tapenesi kaddulubaale, okumufumbirwa.

Farao pɛɛ Hadad asɛm yiye, na ɔmaa no ɔyere a na ɔyɛ ɔhemmea Tapanhes nuabea.

20 Muganda wa Tapenesi n’azaalira Kadadi omwana wabulenzi n’amutuuma Genubasi, era Tapenesi n’amutwala mu lubiri okumulabirira. Genubasi n’akulira eyo wamu n’abaana ba Falaawo.

Ɔne no woo ɔbabarima a wɔtoo no din Genubat, na wɔtetew no fraa Farao mmabarima mu wɔ Farao ahemfi.

21 Kadadi bwe yali mu Misiri, n’awulira nti Dawudi yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe era nga ne Yowaabu omuduumizi w’eggye yafa, n’agamba Falaawo nti, “Ka nzireyo ewaffe mu nsi yange.”

Bere a Hadad tee wɔ Misraim sɛ Dawid ne ne sahene Yoab awuwu no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Farao se, “Ma mensan nkɔ mʼankasa me man mu.”

22 Falaawo n’amubuuza nti, “Kiki ky’otofunye wano, ekikwagaza okuddayo mu nsi yo?” Kadadi n’amuddamu nti, “Tewali, naye nzikiriza ŋŋende.”

Farao bisaa no se, “Adɛn? Dɛn na ɛho hia wo wɔ ha? Dɛn ho na yɛadi wo huammɔ a nti wopɛ sɛ wokɔ wo kurom?” Obuae se, “Biribiara nkɔɔ bɔne, nanso kɔ ara na mepɛ sɛ mekɔ fie.”

23 Katonda n’ayimusiza Sulemaani, omulabe omulala, erinnya lye Lezoni mutabani wa Eriyada, eyali adduse ku mukama we Kadadezeri kabaka w’e Zoba.

Onyankopɔn pagyaw Eliada babarima Reson nso ma ɔbɛyɛɛ ɔtamfo tiaa Salomo. Reson guan fii ne wura ɔhene Hadadeser a ofi Soba nkyɛn

24 Dawudi bwe yatta eggye ly’e Zoba, Lezoni n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja abajeemu n’afuuka mukulu waabwe, n’addukira e Ddamasiko, n’akiwamba, n’abeera eyo nga gy’afugira.

bɛyɛɛ atuatewfo panyin. Dawid dii Hadadeser so nkonim no, Reson ne ne mmarima guan kɔɔ Damasko, kodii hene wɔ hɔ.

25 Yali mulabe wa Isirayiri ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwa Sulemaani, ng’okwo kw’otadde emitawaana Kadadi gye yaleetera Isirayiri. Lezoni n’addukira mu Alamu, era n’abeera mulabe wa Isirayiri omuzibu ennyo.

Reson bɛyɛɛ Israel tamfo kɛse wɔ Salomo ahenni nkae no nyinaa mu; na ɔyɛɛ ɔteeteefo sɛnea Hadad yɛe no. Reson kɔɔ so tan Israel denneennen, na ɔtoaa so dii hene wɔ Aram.

26 Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, Omwefulayimu ow’e Zereda, nnyina nga ye nnamwandu wa Zeruwa, ate nga y’omu ku bakungu ba Sulemaani, n’ajeemera kabaka.

Otuatewfo panyin foforo bi nso ne Nebat babarima Yeroboam. Na ɔyɛ Salomo ankasa mpanyimfo no mu baako. Na ofi kurow Sereda a ɛwɔ Efraim mu. Na wɔfrɛ ne na se Senua; na ɔyɛ okunafo.

27 Eno y’engeri gye yajeemeramu kabaka: Sulemaani yali azimbye obusenge obuwagika, ng’azibye ebituli ebyali mu bbugwe ow’ekibuga kya Dawudi kitaawe.

Nʼatuatew no nkyerɛase ni: Na Salomo rekyekyere Milo, na ogu so resiesie nʼagya Dawid kurow no afasu no,

28 Yerobowaamu yali musajja mwesimbu, era Sulemaani bwe yalaba omulimu gwe omulungi, n’amusiima n’amufuula omukulu w’emirimu gyonna egy’amaanyi mu nnyumba ya Yusufu.

na Yeroboam yɛ nsiyɛfo. Salomo huu no sɛ ɔyɛ mɔdemmɔfo no, ɔde no tuaa adwumayɛfo a wofi Efraim ne Manase mmusuakuw mu no ano.

29 Awo mu biro ebyo Yerobowaamu bwe yali ng’ava mu Yerusaalemi, n’asisinkana Akiya nnabbi w’e Siiro ng’ayambadde ekyambalo ekiggya, baali bokka ku ttale.

Da bi a Yeroboam refi Yerusalem no, ohyiaa odiyifo Ahiya, Siloni, wɔ kwan so a ɔhyɛ atade foforo. Na wɔn baanu nko na wɔwɔ wuram hɔ.

30 Akiya n’addira ekyambalo kye n’akiyuzaamu ebitundu kkumi na bibiri.

Ɛhɔ na Ahiya worɔw nʼatade foforo a na ɛhyɛ no no, tetew mu asinasin dumien.

31 N’agamba Yerobowaamu nti, “Weetwalire ebitundu kkumi, kubanga bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Laba, ŋŋenda kuggya ku Sulemaani obwakabaka, nkuweeko ebika kkumi.

Na ɔka kyerɛɛ Yeroboam se, “Fa asinasin yi mu du, na sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, reka: ‘Merebegye ahemman no afi Salomo nsam, na mede mmusuakuw no mu du bɛma wo.

32 Naye olw’omuddu wange Dawudi n’ekibuga Yerusaalemi, kye neerondera mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, alisigazaako ekika kimu.

Na esiane me somfo Dawid ne Yerusalem a mayi afi Israel mmusuakuw no nyinaa mu no nti, megyaw no abusua baako.

33 Kino ndikikola kubanga banvuddeko ne basinza Asutoleesi katonda omukazi ow’Abamoni, ne batatambulira mu kkubo lyange, wadde okukola ebituufu mu maaso gange newaakubadde okugondera ebiragiro byange oba amateeka gange, nga Dawudi kitaawe wa Sulemaani bwe yakola.

Efisɛ Salomo agyaw me hɔ, akɔsom Astoret a ɔyɛ Sidonfo bosombea ne Kemos a ɔyɛ Moabfo nyame ne Amonfo nyame Molek. Wamfa mʼakwan so anyɛ nea ɛsɔ mʼani. Wanni me mmara ne mʼahyɛde so te sɛ nʼagya Dawid.

34 “‘Naye Sulemaani sirimuggyako bwakabaka bwonna, wabula ndimuleka nga y’afuga ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe olw’omuddu wange Dawudi, gwe nalonda era eyagondera amateeka n’ebiragiro byange.

“‘Nanso merennye ahemman no nyinaa mfi Salomo nsam saa bere yi. Esiane me somfo Dawid, nea miyii no no, na otiee mʼahyɛde, dii me mmara so no nti, mɛma Salomo adi ade mfe a aka no wɔ ne nkwa mu.

35 Ndiggya obwakabaka ku mutabani wa Sulemaani, ne nkuwa ebika kkumi.

Na megye ahemman no afi ne babarima nsam, na mede mmusuakuw no mu du ama wo.

36 Ekika ekimu ndikiwa mutabani we, omuddu wange Dawudi abeerenga n’ettabaaza mu maaso gange mu Yerusaalemi, ekibuga kye neeroboza olw’erinnya lyange.

Ne babarima benya abusuakuw baako, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a me somfo Dawid asefo bɛkɔ so adi hene wɔ Yerusalem, kurow a mayi sɛ me din nna so no.

37 Wabula, ggwe ndikutwala, era olifuga wonna omutima gwo gye gulisiima, era olibeera kabaka wa Isirayiri.

Na mede wo besi Israel ahengua no so, na wubedi ade no sɛnea wʼankasa wo koma pɛ.

38 Bw’onoogonderanga byonna bye nkulagira n’otambuliranga mu makubo gange, era n’okolanga ebituufu mu maaso gange ng’okugonderanga ebiragiro n’amateeka gange, nga Dawudi omuddu wange bwe yakola, nnaabeeranga naawe. Ndikukolera ekika eky’enkalakkalira, nga kye nakolera Dawudi, era ndikuwa ne Isirayiri.

Sɛ wutie asɛm a meka kyerɛ wo, na wonantew mʼakwan mu, na woyɛ nea midwen sɛ eye, na wutie me mmara, di mʼahyɛde so, sɛnea me somfo Dawid yɛe no a, ɛno de, daa mɛka wo ho. Metim wo fi adedi ase, sɛnea meyɛ maa Dawid no, na mede Israel bɛma wo.

39 Kyendiva nzikakkanya ezzadde lya Dawudi, naye si bbanga lyonna.’”

Nanso esiane Salomo bɔne a wayɛ nti, mɛtwe Dawid asefo aso, nanso ɛrenyɛ afebɔɔ.’”

40 Sulemaani n’agezaako okutta Yerobowaamu, naye Yerobowaamu n’addukira e Misiri, ewa Sisaki kabaka waayo, n’abeera eyo okutuusa Sulemaani bwe yafa.

Salomo pɛɛ sɛ okum Yeroboam, nanso oguan kɔɔ Misraim, Misraimhene Sisak nkyɛn, kosii sɛ Salomo wui.

41 Ebyo byonna ebyabaawo ku mulembe gwa Sulemaani, ne byonna bye yakola, n’amagezi ge yalaga, byawandiikibwa mu bitabo eby’ebyafaayo ebya Sulemaani.

Na Salomo ahenni ho nsɛm nkae, nea ɔyɛe ne ne nyansa no de, wɔankyerɛw wɔ Salomo Ho Nsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

42 Sulemaani yafuga Isirayiri yonna ng’ali mu Yerusaalemi okumala emyaka amakumi ana.

Salomo dii hene wɔ Yerusalem ne Israel nyinaa so mfirihyia aduanan.

43 N’afa n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi kitaawe. Awo Lekobowaamu mutabani we n’amusikira.

Bere a Salomo wui no, wosiee no wɔ nʼagya Dawid kurom. Na ne babarima Rehoboam na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene foforo.
