1 Amakhosi 3
1 USolomoni waba lobudlelwano loFaro inkosi yeGibhithe waze wathatha indodakazi yayo. Wayingenisa edolobheni likaDavida inkosikazi yakhe esaqedisa umsebenzi wokwakha ithempeli likaThixo, lomduli ohonqolozele iJerusalema.
Hagi Solomoni'a Isipi kini ne' Fero mofa'a ara erigeke, hara osuke mago zanarimpa huke manisaku kea huhagerafi'na'e. Hagi ana ara agra avreno Deviti rankumapi Jerusalemi ome ante'neno, noma'ane, Ra Anumzamofo none, Jerusalemi kumamofo vihunena trohu vagare'ne.
2 Kodwa-ke, abantu babelokhu besanikelela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo ngoba ithempeli lalilokhu lilindele ukwakhiwa lisakhelwa ibizo likaThixo.
Hagi ana knafina Israeli agonaramintega mareri'za ofa ome Ra Anumzamofontega kresramna vu'naze. Na'ankure e'ina knafina Ra Anumzamofo agirera mono nona onki'nazage'za anara hu'naze.
3 USolomoni watshengisela uthando lwakhe kuThixo ngokuhamba njengokulaya kukayise uDavida, ngaphandle nje kokuthi wanikela iminikelo watshisa impepha ezindaweni eziphakemeyo.
Hagi Solomoni'a Ra Anumzamofona Deviti'ma hu'neaza huno avesinenteno trakea avaririneanagi, agonarega vuno Anumzamofontega ofa'a ome kresramna vu'ne.
4 Inkosi yaya eGibhiyoni ukuyanikela iminikelo, ngoba kwakuyiyo indawo eqhamileyo kweziphakemeyo, ngakho-ke uSolomoni wanikela ngeminikelo yokutshiswa eyinkulungwane kulelo-alithare.
Hagi kini ne'mo'a Gibioni kumate ofa ome Kresramana vuku vu'ne. Na'ankure Gibioni agonaramimpina mareri agatereno agi me'nea kre sramnavu ita me'negeno vu'ne. Hagi e'i ana kre sramnavu itarera Solomoni'a 1tauseni'a bulimakaone sipisipi afuzaga tevefina kre fananehu ofa hu'ne.
5 Khonapho eGibhiyoni uThixo waziveza kuSolomoni ebusuku emaphutsheni lapho uNkulunkulu athi, “Cela loba yini ofuna ukuba ngikunike yona.”
Hagi Gibioni kumate Ra Anumzamo'a Solomonina ava'nafi efore huno amanage huno asami'ne, Kavesinia zanku nantahigege'na kami'neno.
6 USolomoni waphendula ngokuthi, “Utshengisile umusa omkhulu encekwini yakho, ubaba uDavida, ngenxa yokuthi wathembeka njalo elungile ngokuqonda enhliziyweni yakhe. Uqhubekele phambili ngomusa omkhulu kangaka wamnika indodana ehlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi lamuhla lokhu.
Higeno Solomoni'a amanage huno asami'ne, Kagri eri'za vaheka'a nenfa Devitina mevava kavesi'zanteti avesinte'nane. Na'ankure agra fatgo avu'ava nehuno tamage huno tumo'areti huno kavariri'ne. Hagi kagra vagaore kavesizanteti ne' mofavrea aminkeno menina agri nona erino kini tra'arera mani'ne.
7 Khathesi, Thixo Nkulunkulu wami, uyibekile inceku yakho yaba yinkosi esikhundleni sikababa uDavida. Kodwa ngingumntwana nje ongakwaziyo ukwenza umsebenzi okumele awenze.
Hagi nagra osi mofavregi'na vahe'ma kegavama hu'zana ontahi'noanagi, menina Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamoka eri'za neka'a kinia nazeri otinke'na nenfa Deviti nona eri'noe.
8 Inceku yakho ilapha phakathi kwabantu bakho obakhethileyo, abantu abaqakathekileyo, abanengi okungabalwayo noma ukulandisa ngenani labo.
Hagi nagri vahere hunkama huhamprinana vahe amu'nompi menina nagra eri'za vahekamo'na mani'noe. Hagi e'i ana vahera rama'a vahekrerfa mani'nage'za, hamprigara osu'ne.
9 Phana inceku yakho inhliziyo elobubelo ukuze ibuse abantu bakho lokuthi yahlukanise phakathi kokuhle lokubi. Ngoba ngubani olamandla okubusa abantu bakho abakhulu kangaka?”
E'ina hu'negu muse hugantoanki vahe'ma kegavama hu knare antahi'za namige'na vahera kegava hu'ne'na havi zane knare zanena refko hu'na kegava ha'neno. Na'ankure nagra knarera osu'noanki'na ama vahekrerfa kegava osugahue.
10 UThixo wathokoziswa yilesisicelo sikaSolomoni.
Hagi Solomoni'ma knare antahi'zanku'ma antahigegeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a tusi muse nehuno,
11 Ngakho uNkulunkulu wathi kuye, “Njengoba ucele lokho kodwa ungacelanga impilo ende loba inotho, njalo awucelanga ukuthi ngabe izitha zakho ziyafa kodwa ucele inhliziyo elobubele ekubuseni ngemfanelo,
amanage huno asami'ne, Kagra kafuni'a erizaza huo hunka osuge, fenozankura nantahionkege, naza huge'na ha' vaheni'a zamaha'neno hunka osananki, knare antahi'za naminege'na havi zane knare zanena refko ha'neno hunka hananki'na,
12 ngizakwenza lokho okucelileyo. Ngizakunika inhliziyo yenhlakanipho kanye lobubele, kube yikuthi akukaze kube khona ofanana lawe, njalo kungelakuthi uzake abekhona.
menina Nagra kema hana kante ante'na knare antahi'zana kamigahue. Hagi havi zane knare'zane refkohu knare antahi'zana ko'ma mani'za e'naza vahe'mo'za e'orinazankna antahi'za kamisugeno, ete henka kagrikna antahintahine vahera forera osutfa hugahie.
13 Phezu kwalokho, ngizakunika ongazange ukucele, kokubili inotho lokuhlonitshwa, kube khona ekuphileni kwakho konke njalo kungabi leyodwa inkosi ezalingana lawe.
Hagi nantahima onke'nana zana fenone, ra agima ami'zanena antegofetu hu'na kaminena, maninkama vanampina mago kini ne'mo'a kagateoregahie.
14 Kanti njalo nxa uzathatha inyathelo lami ulalele imilayo lemithetho yami njengalokhu okwenziwa nguyihlo uDavida, ngizakunika impilo ende.”
Hagi negafa'ma hu'neaza hunka Nagri navu'nava'ma nevaririnka, trake'ni'ane kasege'ni'anema kegavama hunka avaririsankena, kafuzageka'a eri za'za ha'nena zazate manigahane.
15 Ngakho uSolomoni wasephaphama, wananzelela ukuthi kwakuliphupho. Wabuyela eJerusalema, wayakuma phambi kwebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo wanikela ngomnikelo wokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula. Wenzela izinceku zakhe zonke zasendlini idili.
Higeno anante Solomoni'a mase'nefintira antri huno otino keana amne ava'na ke'ne. Hagi anantetira atreno Jerusalemi kumate vuno Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage bogisimofo avuga kre fananehu ofane, rimpa fru ofanena ome nehuno, eri'za vahe'anena ra ne'za kreno ne'ne.
16 Kwasekusiba lezifebe ezimbili ezaya enkosini zafika zema phambi kwayo.
Hagi mago zupa savri atremokea Solomoni avuga eoti'na'e.
17 Esinye sathi, “Nkosi yami, umama lo sihlala ndlunye. Ngikhululeke ngazuza umntwana laye ekhona.
Hagi mago a'mo'a otiazamo amanage hu'ne, ranimoka, ama a'ene nagranena mago nompi nemanu'ankita, ama a'mo'a magoka nompi mani'nege'na mofavrea kasente'noe.
18 Kuthe ngosuku lwesithathu ngikhululekile laye umama lo wakhululeka wazuza umntwana. Besiyithi sodwa sobabili, kungelamuntu endlini ngaphandle kwethu sobabili.
Hagi 3'a zagegna evutegeno ama a'mo'a, mofavrea kasente'ne. Hagi ana nompina tagrake mani'noanki, mago vahera omanitfa hu'ne.
19 Ebusuku indodana yalumama ifile ngoba usuke walala phezu kwayo.
Hianagi agra kenage mase'neno, mase rukrahe hirega mofavre'a rehapatigeno fri'ne.
20 Wasevuka ebusuku wangemuka indodana yami mina ncekukazi yakho ngilele ubuthongo. Uthethe umntanami wayamxhuma ebeleni lakhe, wathatha owakhe ofileyo wamfaka kwelami ibele.
Ana'ma nehuno'a mase himamrenoama'a agra kenage otiazamo nagri mofavrea eme avreno asumpinka agra aminte ome nenteno, fri'nea mofavre'a avreno nagri nasumpinka aminte eme ante'ne.
21 Ekuseni ngithe ngivuka ukuba ngimunyise indodana yami, ngathola ukuthi isifile! Kodwa ngithe ngiyayikhangelisisa sokusile ngananzelela ukuthi akusiyo indodana yami engayizalayo.”
Ana'ma hutege'na nanterama otina mofavreni'ama amima ami'za nehu'na koana, agra ko fri'ne. Hianagi ana mofavrema nanterama masama hige'na oti'na amima aminaku'ma koana, nagrama kasente'noa mofavrea omani'ne.
22 Omunye owesifazane wathi, “Hayi! Indodana le ephilayo ngeyami, efileyo ngeyakho.” Kodwa umama wokususa indaba waphikelela esithi, “Hayi bo! Ofileyo ngowakho, ophilayo ngowami.” Ngakho-ke baphikisana phambi kwenkosi.
Hianagi mago a'mo'a ke'amofona anintaka huno amanage huno hu'ne, I'o mani'nea mofavrea nagri mofavregi, fri'nea mofavrea kagri mofavre. Anagema higeno'a, ese'ma nanekema hu'nea a'mo'a amanage hu'ne, I'o fri'nea mofavrea kagriki, mani'nea mofavrea nagri mofavre. Anage huke kini ne'mofo avuga fravazi'na'e.
23 Inkosi yathi, “Lo uthi, ‘Hayi bo! Indodana yami iyaphila kodwa eyakho ifile’ kanti belo loyana uthi, ‘Hayi bo! Eyakho indodana yiyo efileyo kodwa eyami ngephilayo.’”
Hagi kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Tanagra huta nagri mofavremo kasefa huno mani'neanki, kagri mofavremo fri'ne, higeno, ete mago'mo'a huno, I'o kagri mofavremo fri'neanki, nagri mofavremo kasefa huno manine huta ha'e.
24 Inkosi yasisithi, “Lethani inkemba.” Lakanye inkosi bayiqhubela inkemba.
Ha knareki bainati kazi erinka eme namio, huno kini ne'mo'a eri'za ne'agura higeno, bainati kazina erino avuga egeno,
25 Inkosi yapha isiqondiso yathi, “Dabulani umntwana ophilayo phakathi laphakathi kuthi ingxenye liyiqhubele omunye umama kuthi lomunye laye limnike enye ingxenye.”
amanage hu'ne, Kasefa huno mani'nea mofavrea amu'nompinti rutanerare hunka mago kaziga magomofo aminka, magokaziga magomofo amio.
26 Owesifazane owayelendodana ephilayo wakhulelwa lusizi ngendodana yakhe ngakho wathi enkosini, “Uxolo, ngiyacela nkosi yami, kungcono umqhubele umntwana ephila, umnike nkosi! Ungambulali umntwana.” Kodwa omunye wathi, “Kakho phakathi kwethu ofanele ukumzuza lumntwana, mqume iziqa ezimbili!”
Anagema higeno'a ana mofavremofo nerera fatgo'amo'a tusiza huno avesi nenteankino amanage hu'ne, I'o ranimoka muse hugantoanki ohenka, agri amio huno hu'ne. Hianagi mago a'ma havigema nehia a'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Tamage hananki agri mofavrea omanige nagri mofavrea omanige hanianki, rutnerare huramio huno hu'ne.
27 Inkosi yasiveza ukwahlulela kwayo: “Umntwana ophilayo mupheni umama wakuqala. Lingambulali umntwana, lo nguye unina uqobo.”
Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Ese a'mo'ma ahe ofrita antu a' amiho huno'ma hia a'mo ana mofavremofona nerera fatgo mani'neanki ahe ofrita agri amiho.
28 Kwathi abako-Israyeli sebezwile bonke ukwahlulela kwenkosi, bayesaba kakhulu, ngoba babona ukuthi ukuhlakanipha kwayo kokwahlulela ngemfanelo kuvela kuNkulunkulu.
Hagi kini ne'mo'ma knare'ma huno kema refko'ma hianke'ma maka Israeli vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za, kini nera koro hunte'naze. Na'ankure Anumzamofo knare antahizama me'negeno knare'ma huno nanekema refkoma hu'neazana zamagra ke'za antahiza hu'naze.
