1 Awo bannabbi Kaggayi ne Zekkaliya muzzukulu wa Iddo ne bategeeza Abayudaaya abaabeeranga mu Yuda ne Yerusaalemi obubaka obuva eri Katonda wa Isirayiri, Katonda waabwe.
Zvino muprofita Hagai naZekaria muprofita, chizvarwa chaIdho, vakaprofita kuvaJudha vakanga vari muJudha muJerusarema, vakaprofita muzita raMwari akanga ari pamusoro pavo, Mwari waIsraeri.
2 Zerubbaberi mutabani wa Seyalutyeri ne Yesuwa mutabani wa Yozadaki ne bagolokoka ne bagenda mu maaso n’omulimu gw’okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi, era ne bannabbi ba Katonda nga babayambako.
Ipapo Zerubhabheri mwanakomana waShearitieri naJeshua mwanakomana waJozadhaki, vakasimuka kuti vaite basa rokuvakazve imba yaMwari muJerusarema. Uye vaprofita vaMwari vakanga vanavo, vachivabatsira.
3 Mu kiseera kyekimu Tattenayi ow’essaza ly’emitala w’omugga Fulaati, ne Sesalubozenayi ne bagenda gye bali ne bababuuza nti, “Ani eyabawa obuyinza okuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyo n’okuzaawo bbugwe oyo?”
Panguva iyoyo Tatenai, mubati wenyika yaiva mhiri kwaYufuratesi, naShetari-Bhozenai neshamwari dzavo vakaenda kwaari uye vakandomubvunza, vachiti, “Ndiani akakupai mvumo yokuvakazve temberi iyi uye nokumisazve masvingo aya?”
4 Ate era ne bababuuza n’amannya g’abasajja abaakolanga ku kizimbe ekyo.
Vakabvunzazve vakati, “Mazita avarume vari kuvaka imba iyi ndivanaani?”
5 Naye Katonda waabwe n’abeeranga wamu n’abakulu b’Abayudaaya, ne bataziyizibwa kugenda mu maaso n’omulimu okutuusa ekigambo nga kivudde eri Daliyo, n’okuddamu kwe nga kuli mu buwandiike.
Asi ziso raMwari wavo rakanga rakatarira pamusoro pavakuru vavaJudha, uye havana kuvaregesa basa kusvikira nyaya iyi yaziviswa kuna Dhariasi uye mhinduro yake yakanyorwa yagamuchirwa.
6 Kopi ey’ebbaluwa Tattenayi ow’essaza ly’emitala w’omugga Fulaati, ne Sesalubozenayi ne bannaabwe abakungu ab’emitala w’omugga Fulaati gye baaweereza Kabaka Daliyo,
Aya ndiwo mashoko etsamba yakanyorerwa mambo Dhariasi naTatenai, mubati mhiri kwaYufuratesi, naShetari-Bhozenai, neshamwari dzavo, namakurukota vakanga vari mhiri kwaYufuratesi.
7 yalimu ebigambo bino wansi. Eri Kabaka Daliyo, Mirembe myereere.
Tsamba yavakatumira kwaari yakanga ina mashoko anoti: Kuna Mambo Dhariasi: Tinokukwazisai.
8 Kitugwanidde okumanyisa kabaka nga bwe twagenze mu ssaza lya Yuda ku yeekaalu ya Katonda omukulu. Abantu bagizimba n’amayinja amanene era bateeka n’embaawo mu bbugwe, era n’omulimu gukolebwa n’obunyiikivu n’okugenda gugenda mu maaso olw’okufuba kwabwe.
Mambo ngaazive kuti takaenda kudunhu reJudha, kutemberi yaMwari mukuru. Vanhu vari kuivaka namabwe makuru uye vachiisa matanda mumasvingo. Basa riri kuitwa nokushingaira uye riri kupfuurira mberi nokukurumidza mumaoko avo.
9 Twabuuza abakulu nti, “Ani eyabawa obuyinza okuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyo n’okuzzaawo bbugwe oyo?”
Takabvunza vakuru vavo tikati kwavari, “Ndiani akakupai mvumo yokuti muvakezve temberi iyi uye mumisezve masvingo aya?”
10 Era twababuuza n’amannya gaabwe, tusobole okukuweereza amannya g’abakulembeze baabwe.
Takavabvunzawo kuti mazita avo vainzi vanaani, tichiitira kuti tingonyora mazita avatungamiri vavo kuti tigokuzivisai.
11 Baatuddamu nti: “Tuli baddu ba Katonda w’eggulu n’ensi, era tuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyazimbibwa emyaka egy’edda omu ku bakabaka abakulu aba Isirayiri, n’agimala.
Iyi ndiyo mhinduro yavakatipa: “Tiri varanda vaMwari wokudenga napasi, uye tiri kuvakazve temberi yakambovakwa makore mazhinji akapfuura, iyo yakavakwa namambo mukuru weIsraeri uye akaipedza.
12 Naye olw’okuba nga bajjajjaffe baasunguwaza Katonda w’eggulu, yabawaayo mu mukono gwa Nebukadduneeza Omukaludaaya, kabaka w’e Babulooni, eyazikiriza yeekaalu eno n’atwala abantu e Babulooni.
Asi nokuda kwokuti madzibaba edu akatsamwisa Mwari wokudenga, akavaisa mumaoko aNebhukadhinezari muKaradhea, mambo weBhabhironi, uyo akaparadza temberi ino akatora vanhu akavaendesa kuBhabhironi.
13 “Naye mu mwaka ogw’olubereberye ogw’obufuzi bwa Kuulo kabaka w’e Babulooni, kabaka Kuulo oyo n’awa ekiragiro okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda eno.
“Kunyange zvakadaro, mugore rokutanga raSirasi mambo weBhabhironi, Mambo Sirasi akatema chirevo chokuti imba yaMwari iyi ivakwezve.
14 Ebintu ebya zaabu n’ebya ffeeza eby’omu nnyumba ya Katonda, Nebukadduneeza bye yanyaga mu yeekaalu eyali mu Yerusaalemi n’abitwala mu ssabo ly’e Babulooni, Kabaka Kuulo n’abiggyayo. Kabaka Kuulo n’abikwasa omusajja erinnya lye Sesubazaali, gwe yalonda okuba owessaza,
Akabvisawo midziyo yegoridhe nesirivha yeimba yaMwari yakanga iri mutemberi yeBhabhironi, yakanga yatorwa naNebhukadhinezari kubva kutemberi muJerusarema akaiuyisa kutemberi yomuBhabhironi. “Ipapo mambo Sirasi akaipa kumurume ainzi Sheshibhazari, waakanga agadza kuti ave mubati,
15 era n’amugamba nti, ‘Twala ebintu ebyo, ogende obiteeke mu yeekaalu eri mu Yerusaalemi, era olabe ng’ennyumba ya Katonda edda mu kifo kyayo.’
uye akamuudza kuti, ‘Tora midziyo iyi uende nayo undoiisa mutemberi muJerusarema, uye ugovakazve imba yaMwari panzvimbo yayo.’
16 “Sesubazaali oyo n’ajja n’azimba omusingi gw’ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi, era okuva mu kiseera ekyo n’okutuusa kaakano omulimu gukyagenda mu maaso, tegunnagwa.”
Naizvozvo Sheshibhazari uyu akauya akateya nheyo dzeimba yaMwari muJerusarema. Kubva pazuva iroro kusvikira nhasi yanga ichingovakwa, asi haisati yapera.”
17 Noolwekyo kabaka bw’aba ng’asiimye, wabeewo okunoonyereza mu bitabo mu ggwanika lya kabaka eyo e Babulooni obanga ddala Kabaka Kuulo yawa ekiragiro okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi. N’oluvannyuma kabaka atutumire okututegeeza ky’asazeewo ku nsonga eyo.
“Zvino kana zvichifadza mambo, ngavatsvakisise mumabhuku amadzimambo eBhabhironi kuti vaone kana Mambo Sirasi zvirokwazvo vakamboisa chirevo chokuti imba yaMwari iyi ivakwezve muJerusarema. Naizvozvo mambo ngaatizivise kuda kwake pamusoro penyaya iyi.”
