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.
Devid kpọkọtara ndịisi ozi niile nke Izrel, ka ha zukọọ na Jerusalem, bụ ndị ndu ebo Izrel niile, na ndị ọchịagha nke otu ndị agha nọ nʼọrụ eze. Ndị ọzọ bụ ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, na ndịisi agha na-achị ọtụtụ narị ndị agha, na ndịisi ozi na-elekọta ihe niile na anụ ụlọ niile nke eze na ụmụ ya ndị ikom nwere, tinyere ndị ozi niile nọ nʼụlọeze, na ndị bụ dimkpa na ndị niile bụ dike nʼagha.
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.
Eze Devid biliri kwụrụ ọtọ sị, “Geenụ m ntị, unu ụmụnna m, na ndị m. Ọ bụrịị ihe dị m nʼobi iwu ụlọ nke ga-abụ ebe izuike nye igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, nke ga-abụ ebe mgbakwasị ụkwụ nye Chineke anyị. Edokọtachaala m ihe e ji ewu ya,
3 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kimi: ‘Awuyikulakhela indlu iBizo lami, ngoba wena ungowempi njalo usuchithe igazi.’
ma Chineke sịrị m, ‘Ọ bụghị gị ga-ewu ụlọ nye Aha m, nʼihi na ị bụ onye na-ebu agha, onye wufuru ọbara site nʼigbu ọtụtụ mmadụ nʼagha.’
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.
“Ma otu ọ dị, Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel esitela nʼetiti ikwu m họpụta m, mee m eze Izrel ruo ebighị ebi. Ọ họọrọ ebo Juda dịka onyendu. Ọ bụkwa site nʼebo Juda ka o si họrọ ụlọ nna m, sitekwa nʼetiti ụmụnne m ndị ikom họrọ m. Mee m eze Izrel.
5 Kuwo wonke amadodana ami njengoba uThixo engiphe amanengi, umkhethile uSolomoni indodana yami ukuba ahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi esikhosini sombuso kaThixo ko-Israyeli.
Onyenwe anyị enyela m ọtụtụ ụmụ ndị ikom, ma site nʼime ha ọ họpụtara Solomọn nwa m ka ọ nọkwasị nʼocheeze nke alaeze Onyenwe anyị dịka eze Izrel.
6 Wathi kimi: ‘USolomoni indodana yakho yiyo ezangakhela indlu yami ilungise lamaguma ami, ngoba ngimkhethile ukuba abe yindodana yami, lami ngizakuba nguyise.
Ọ gwara m, ‘Solomọn nwa gị, bụ onye ga-ewuru m ụlọ m, na ogige m niile, nʼihi na ahọpụtala m ya ị bụrụ m nwa, aga m abụkwara ya nna.
7 Ngizawuqinisa umbuso wakhe kuze kube nininini nxa eqina ekugcineni imilayo yami lemithetho yami njengalokhu okwenzakalayo lamuhla.’
Ọ bụrụkwa na o debe ihe niile m nyere nʼiwu, mezuo ha dịka o si eme nʼoge a. Aga m eme ka alaeze ya dịgide ruo ebighị ebi.’
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.
“Ya mere, ugbu a ana m enye unu iwu nʼihu ndị Izrel niile, na nʼihu ọgbakọ ndị nke Onyenwe anyị, na nʼihu Chineke anyị. Kpachapụnụ anya chọpụta ma debekwa iwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, ka unu nwee ike nweta ezi ala nke a; ma nyefeekwa ya dịka ihe nketa nʼaka ụmụ ụmụ unu ruo ebighị ebi.
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.
“Ma gị, Solomọn nwa m, mara Chineke nke nna gị, jiri obi zuruoke, na mmụọ nwere njikere mgbe niile fee Onyenwe anyị ofufe, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-enyocha obi mmadụ niile. Ọ na-aghọtakwa ihe niile anyị bu nʼobi na echiche niile. Ọ bụrụ na ị chọsie ụzọ ya ike, ị ga-achọta ya, ma ọ bụrụ na ị jụ ya, ọ ga-ajụ gị ruo ebighị ebi.
10 Nanzelela-ke ngoba uThixo ukukhethile ukuba umakhele ithempeli libe yindawo yokukhonzela. Qina wenze umsebenzi.”
Kpachapụ anya, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ahọrọla gị iwuru ya ụlọnsọ ya. Dị ike, rụọkwa ọrụ a e tinyere gị nʼaka.”
11 Ngakho uDavida wasenika uSolomoni indodana yakhe umdwebo wesakhiwo sethempeli, lowezindlu zalo, lowezindlu zenotho, lowezindlu zangaphezulu, lowezindlu zangaphakathi, lowendlu yesihlalo somusa.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid nyere Solomọn nwa ya ihe e sere gbasara otu ọ ga-esi wuo ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ, na nke ụlọ ndị ọzọ niile ga-adị nʼime ya, na nʼakụkụ ya; ụlọakụ ya niile, na ime ụlọ elu ya, na ime ụlọ ya, na ụlọ ebe ikpuchi mmehie.
12 Wamnika umdwebo wakho konke ayekutshengiswe nguMoya engqondweni yakhe ngamaguma ethempeli likaThixo, lowezindlu eziwazingelezeleyo, lowendlu yenotho yethempeli, lowendlu yenotho yezinto ezingcwele.
O nyekwara ya ihe osise gosiri ihe niile nke Mmụọ Nsọ tinyere ya nʼuche banyere ogige ụlọnsọ ukwuu Onyenwe anyị ahụ, na ọnụụlọ niile dị ya gburugburu, maka ụlọ nchịkọta akụ nke ụlọnsọ Chineke nakwa akụ niile nke e doro nsọ.
13 Wamtshela langesimo sezigaba zabaphristi lezabaLevi, langawo wonke umsebenzi wasethempelini likaThixo, langezitsha zonke zenkonzo,
Devid nyekwara Solomọn iwu otu ọ ga-esi kewaa ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị, na iwu metụtara ọrụ ije ozi niile nke ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na iwu metụtara ngwongwo niile e ji eje ozi.
14 langesisindo segolide lazozonke izitsha zegolide zaleyo laleyo nkonzo, langesisindo sezitsha zesiliva zaleyo laleyo nkonzo:
Ọ wepụtara ọlaedo dị ukwuu maka iji ya kpụọ ngwongwo ọlaedo a ga-eji jee ozi dị iche iche. Ọ wepụtakwara ọlaọcha dị ukwu maka iji ya kpụọ ngwongwo ọlaọcha a ga-eji jee ozi dị iche iche.
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;
Ọ wepụtara ọlaedo nke e ji akpụ iheọkụ na ihe ịdọba iheọkụ. Wepụtakwa ọlaọcha ga-ezu ịkpụ oriọna ọlaọcha, na ihe ịdọba ha.
16 langesisindo segolide saleyotafula lezinkwa ezahlukaniselwe uNkulunkulu lesisindo sesiliva esamatafula enziwe ngesiliva;
Ọ wepụtara ọlaedo e ji akpụ tebul achịcha nsọ, na ọlaedo e ji akpụ tebul ndị ọzọ, na ọlaọcha e ji akpụ tebul ọlaọcha.
17 isisindo segolide elicengekileyo lezinti, imiganu yokuchelisa lezinkezo zakhona, lesisindo saleso lalesositsha segolide, kanye lesaleso lalesositsha sesiliva.
Ọ wepụtara ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha a ga-eji kpụọ ndụdụ e ji adụrụ anụ e ji chụọ aja, efere ịkwọsa mmiri na ite mmiri; ọlaedo zuru nke e ji akpụta efere ọlaedo ọbụla, na ọlaọcha zuru nke e ji akpụta efere ọlaọcha ọbụla, wepụtakwa ọlaọcha na ọlaedo.
18 Wamtshela langesimo se-alithare lempepha elenziwe ngegolide elicengekileyo lesisindo salo, langomfanekiso wesihlalo esingamakherubhi egolide achaye amaphiko awo egubuzele ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo.
Nʼikpeazụ, o wepụtara ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha a ga-eji kpụọ ebe ịchụ aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ. O nyere ya ihe osise gosiri otu a ga-esi wuo ụgbọ agha, ya bụ, mmụọ ozi cherubim ndị ahụ e ji ọlaedo kpụọ, ndị gbasapụrụ nku ha nʼelu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
19 UDavida wasesithi: “Konke lokhu ngilakho kulotshwe ngesandla sikaThixo phezu kwami, njalo wanginika ukuzwisisa kukho konke lokhu langokuphelela kwesimo sakhona.”
Devid kwuru sị, “E deela ihe niile gbasara osise ụlọnsọ ukwu a nʼakwụkwọ nke m sitere na ntụziaka Onyenwe anyị nweta. Onyenwe anyị nyekwara m nghọta banyere ihe niile metụtara osise ụlọnsọ ukwu a.”
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.
Devid gwakwara nwa ya Solomọn okwu sị, “Dị ike, nwee obi ike, rụọ ọrụ a. Atụla ụjọ, adakwala mba, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke, bụ Chineke m, nọnyeere gị. Ọ gaghị ahapụ gị, maọbụ gbakụta gị azụ. Ọ ga-ahụ na ihe niile gaara gị nke ọma, tutu ruo mgbe ọrụ iwu ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị gwụsịrị.
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.”
Ndị nchụaja ndị a niile, na ndị Livayị jikeere ịrụ ọrụ niile metụtara ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke ahụ. Ndị ọzọ bụ ndị ọka ọrụ dị iche iche ndị o metụrụ nʼobi ga-abịakwa inyere gị aka, ma ndị ozi, ma ndị Izrel niile; ha ga-emezu iwu ọbụla i nyere ha.”
