1 Imilando 28
1 UDavida wamema zonke izikhulu zako-Israyeli zabuthana eJerusalema: izikhulu zezizwana, abalawuli bamaviyo emsebenzini wenkosi, abalawuli bezinkulungwane kanye labalawuli bamakhulu, lezikhulu ezaziphethe ezezimpahla lezifuyo zenkosi lamadodana ayo, kanye lezikhulu zesigodlweni, amaqhawe labo bonke ababelezibindi empini.
David yɔ Israel ƒe dɔdzikpɔlawo katã ƒo fu ɖe Yerusalem; Woawoe nye to vovovoawo ƒe tatɔwo, aʋafia siwo nɔ hatsotsoawo nu le fia la ƒe dɔ me, ame akpewo kple ame alafawo ƒe tatɔwo, dɔnunɔla siwo kpɔa fia la ƒe viŋutsuwo kple eƒe nunɔamesiwo kple lãhawo dzi, kpe ɖe fiasã la me dɔwɔlawo kple kalẽtɔwo kple aʋakalẽtɔwo ŋuti.
2 Inkosi uDavida yasukuma yathi: “Lalelani, zihlobo labantu bami, bengizimisele ukwakhela ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo, indlu yokuhlala njalo kuyisenabelo sikaNkulunkulu wethu, ngaze ngenza amalungiselelo okukufeza lokho.
Fia David tsi tsitre ɖe ameawo ŋkume eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo tom, nɔvinye ŋutsuwo kple nye dukɔmetɔwo, meɖoe ɖe nye dzi me be matu xɔ si anye dzudzɔƒe na Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la eye wòanye afɔɖodzinu na míaƒe Mawu la. Ale mewɔ ɖoɖo ɖe etutu ŋuti.
3 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kimi: ‘Awuyikulakhela indlu iBizo lami, ngoba wena ungowempi njalo usuchithe igazi.’
Ke Mawu gblɔ nam be, ‘Menye wòe atu xɔ na nye ŋkɔ o elabena aʋawɔlae nènye eye nèkɔ ʋu ɖi.’
4 Kodwa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, wakhetha mina kuyo yonke indlu yakwethu ukuba yinkosi yako-Israyeli kuze kube nininini. Wakhetha uJuda ukuba abe ngumkhokheli, kwathi khona endlini kaJuda wakhetha imuli yakwethu, kwazakuthi emadodaneni kababa kumthokozisile ukungibeka ngibe yinkosi kulolonke elako-Israyeli.
“Ke Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la tiam le fofonye ƒe ƒome blibo la me be, manye fia ɖe Israel dzi tegbee. Etia Yuda ƒe viwo eye wòtia fofonye ƒe ƒome tso wo dome. Nye nu nyo Yehowa ŋu eye wòna mezu fia ɖe Israel dukɔ blibo la nu.
5 Kuwo wonke amadodana ami njengoba uThixo engiphe amanengi, umkhethile uSolomoni indodana yami ukuba ahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi esikhosini sombuso kaThixo ko-Israyeli.
Yehowa na vi geɖewom eye wòtia Solomo tso vinyewo dome be wòanɔ tenyeƒe, anɔ Israel fiaɖuƒe la ƒe fiazikpui dzi.
6 Wathi kimi: ‘USolomoni indodana yakho yiyo ezangakhela indlu yami ilungise lamaguma ami, ngoba ngimkhethile ukuba abe yindodana yami, lami ngizakuba nguyise.
Egblɔ nam be, ‘Viwò, Solomo atu gbedoxɔ la elabena metiae abe vinye ene eye manye fofoa.
7 Ngizawuqinisa umbuso wakhe kuze kube nininini nxa eqina ekugcineni imilayo yami lemithetho yami njengalokhu okwenzakalayo lamuhla.’
Ne egalé nye sewo kple ɖoɖowo me ɖe asi abe ale si wòlé wo me ɖe asi va se ɖe fifia ene la, mana eƒe fiaɖuƒe nanɔ anyi tegbetegbe.’
8 Ngakho-ke phambi kwakhe wonke u-Israyeli, lebandla likaThixo uNkulunkulu, laphambi kukaNkulunkulu wethu: gcinani linanzelele imilayo kaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, ukuze libe lelizwe elihle elizalitshiyela izizukulwane kube yilifa lazo kuze kube nininini.
“Eya ta le Israel, Yehowa ƒe asaɖa blibo la ŋkume kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe tome la, mele nu xlɔ̃m mi be miawɔ ɖe ɖoɖo kple se siwo katã Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la de na mi la dzi be anyigba nyui sia nanye mia tɔ eye wòanye domenyinu na miaƒe viwo tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me.
9 Njalo wena ndodana yami, Solomoni, mamukele uNkulunkulu kayihlo, umkhonze ngokuzinikela ngenhliziyo yakho yonke langengqondo yokuvuma, ngoba uThixo uyihlola yonke inhliziyo kanti uyayazi iminakano lezenzo zonke. Nxa umdinga uThixo, uzamthola wena, kodwa nxa umfulathela, uzakufulathela yena kuze kube nininini.
“Eye wò, vinye Solomo, dze si fofowòwo ƒe Mawu la eye nàsubɔe kple dzi faa kple wò susu blibo elabena Yehowa kpɔa dzi ɖe sia ɖe me eye wònyaa ame sia ame ƒe susu. Ne èdi Yehowa la, àkpɔe, ke ne ègbugbɔ le eyome la, atsɔ wò aƒu gbe tegbetegbe.
10 Nanzelela-ke ngoba uThixo ukukhethile ukuba umakhele ithempeli libe yindawo yokukhonzela. Qina wenze umsebenzi.”
Eya ta, kpɔ nyuie elabena wòe Yehowa tia be nàtu yeƒe gbedoxɔ si anye kɔkɔeƒe. Lé dzi ɖe ƒo eye nàwɔ nu si wòɖo na wò.”
11 Ngakho uDavida wasenika uSolomoni indodana yakhe umdwebo wesakhiwo sethempeli, lowezindlu zalo, lowezindlu zenotho, lowezindlu zangaphezulu, lowezindlu zangaphakathi, lowendlu yesihlalo somusa.
Azɔ la, David tsɔ xɔ la kple eƒe xɔxɔnuwo, nudzraɖoƒewo, xɔtamexɔwo, xɔ emetɔwo, kɔkɔeƒe la kple amenuveveteƒe la ƒe tata na ƒe via Solomo.
12 Wamnika umdwebo wakho konke ayekutshengiswe nguMoya engqondweni yakhe ngamaguma ethempeli likaThixo, lowezindlu eziwazingelezeleyo, lowendlu yenotho yethempeli, lowendlu yenotho yezinto ezingcwele.
Etsɔ nu siwo katã gbɔgbɔ la de eƒe susu me be wòawɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnuwo, xɔ siwo katã ƒo xlãe na Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo kple fia wɔnuteƒewo ƒe nudzraɖoƒe ƒe tatawo hã nɛ.
13 Wamtshela langesimo sezigaba zabaphristi lezabaLevi, langawo wonke umsebenzi wasethempelini likaThixo, langezitsha zonke zenkonzo,
Ewɔ ɖoɖo tsɔ nɛ ku ɖe nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ƒe hatsotsowo ŋuti kple subɔsubɔdɔ siwo katã woawɔ le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me kple nu siwo katã ŋuti dɔ woawɔ le subɔsubɔdɔ me la me.
14 langesisindo segolide lazozonke izitsha zegolide zaleyo laleyo nkonzo, langesisindo sezitsha zesiliva zaleyo laleyo nkonzo:
Eda sika hena sikaŋudɔwɔnu vovovo siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ le subɔsubɔ vovovoawo me eye wòda klosalo hã hena klosaloŋudɔwɔnu vovovo siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ le subɔsubɔ vovovoawo me.
15 langesisindo sezinti zezibane zegolide kanye lezibane zazo, langesisindo segolide salolo lalololuthi lwesibane lezibane zalo, lobunzima besiliva balolo lalololuthi lwesibane lezibane zalo, njengokusetshenziswa kwazo enkonzweni;
Eda sika si ade na akaɖitiawo kple akaɖiawo wɔwɔ la nɛ. Egada klosalo si woatsɔ awɔ bosomikaɖitiwo kple akaɖigbɛawo ɖe ale si woawɔ ɖe sia ɖe ŋudɔe la nu.
16 langesisindo segolide saleyotafula lezinkwa ezahlukaniselwe uNkulunkulu lesisindo sesiliva esamatafula enziwe ngesiliva;
Eda sika hena kplɔ̃wo wɔwɔ na Ŋkumeɖobolo ɖe sia ɖe eye wògada klosalo na klosalokplɔ̃wo hã.
17 isisindo segolide elicengekileyo lezinti, imiganu yokuchelisa lezinkezo zakhona, lesisindo saleso lalesositsha segolide, kanye lesaleso lalesositsha sesiliva.
Eda sika nyuitɔ na gaflowo, ʋuhlẽgbawo kple kpluwo wɔwɔ. Eda sika na sikagbawo wɔwɔ. Nenema kee wòda klosalo na klosalogbawo wɔwɔ.
18 Wamtshela langesimo se-alithare lempepha elenziwe ngegolide elicengekileyo lesisindo salo, langomfanekiso wesihlalo esingamakherubhi egolide achaye amaphiko awo egubuzele ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo.
Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋuti la, eda sika si ŋu wokɔ wòdza la na dzudzɔʋeʋĩdovɔsamlekpui la. Fia la tsɔ ɖoɖo siwo wòwɔ ɖe tasiaɖamwo ŋu la hã nɛ, esi nye sika Kerubi siwo keke woƒe aʋalãwo eye wodo vɔvɔlĩ ɖe Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la dzi.
19 UDavida wasesithi: “Konke lokhu ngilakho kulotshwe ngesandla sikaThixo phezu kwami, njalo wanginika ukuzwisisa kukho konke lokhu langokuphelela kwesimo sakhona.”
David gblɔ na Solomo be, “Yehowa ƒe asie ŋlɔ ɖoɖo siawo katã nam.
20 Okunye okwatshiwo nguDavida kuSolomoni indodana yakhe yikuthi, “Qina ube lesibindi, njalo uwenze lumsebenzi. Ungesabi njalo ungalahli ithemba ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu wami, ulawe. Kawuyikwehluleka njalo kayikukufulathela kuze kube sekupheleni komsebenzi wethempeli likaThixo.
Sẽ ŋu eye nàlé dzi ɖe ƒo. Mègana dɔdeasi la ƒe akɔtitri nado ŋɔdzi na wò o elabena Yehowa, Mawu nye Mawu la li kpli wò eye magblẽ wò ɖi o. Akpɔ egbɔ be wowu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu nu nyuie.
21 Izigaba zabaphristi labaLevi sebelindele wonke umsebenzi wethempeli likaNkulunkulu, njalo kuzakuthi bonke abazinikeleyo bakuphathise ngobungcitshi babo obupheleleyo kuyo yonke imisebenzi. Izikhulu labantu bonke zizayamukela yonke imilayo yakho.”
Nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ƒe hatsotso vovovoawo asubɔ le gbedoxɔ la me. Ame bubu siwo nya aɖaŋu vovovowo la atsɔ wo ɖokuiwo ana hena dɔwo wɔwɔ. Dumegãwo kple dukɔ blibo la aɖo to wò eye woanɔ wò kpɔkplɔ te.”
