1 Amakhosi 6
1 Ngomnyaka wamakhulu amane lasificaminwembili abako-Israyeli baphuma eGibhithe, ngomnyaka wesine uSolomoni ebusa ko-Israyeli, ngenyanga kaZivi, iyinyanga yesibili, waqalisa ukwakha ithempeli likaThixo.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi hono taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma valungofulu hili ʻae haʻu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻoe pule ʻa Solomone ki ʻIsileli, ʻi he māhina ko Sifi, ʻaia ko hono ua ʻoe māhina, naʻa ne kamata langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova.
2 Ithempeli elakhiwa yiNkosi uSolomoni elakhela uThixo lalizingalo ezingamatshumi amabili ububanzi balo, lengalo ezingamatshumi amathathu ukuyaphezulu.
Pea ko e fale naʻe langa ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kia Sihova, naʻe lōloa ia ko e hanga ʻe teau ma uofulu, pea ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māʻolunga ʻo ia ko e hanga ʻe onongofulu.
3 Isigaba sekhulusi elingaphambi kwendlu enkulu yethempeli sengezelela ububanzi lokuqhela kwethempeli, ngezingalo ezingamatshumi amabili njalo sasiphutsha ukwedlula indlu enkulu kusiya phambi kwayo ngezingalo ezilitshumi.
Pea ko hono lōloa ʻoe hūʻanga fale fakamalumalu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe falelotu, ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo fakatatau mo e māukupu ʻoe fale; pea ko hono māukupu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.
4 Amafasitela awenzayo ethempelini ayengamancinyane.
Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ki he fale ʻae ngaahi kātupa naʻe faʻa fakamaʻu ke sio mei ai.
5 Emidulini yendlu enkulu yethempeli lasendlini engcwele ephakathi wakha esinye isimo, kulapho okwaba lezindlwana khona emaceleni.
Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae ngaahi potuʻi fale ʻi he tafaʻaki holisi maka ʻoe fale ʻo takatakai, ʻio, ʻi he tafaʻaki holisi maka ʻoe fale ʻo takatakai hake ʻi he potu tapu pea mo e folofolaʻanga: pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi potu fale ʻo takatakai hake:
6 Indawo ephansi kuzozonke yayibanzi okwezingalo ezinhlanu, kuthi iguma laphakathi lalizingalo eziyisithupha kanti-ke iguma lesithathu lalingaba ngeziyisikhombisa. Wakha imithangala ngaphandle kwethempeli ukuze kungabi lalutho olwaluzafakwa phakathi kwemiduli yethempeli.
Ko e potu fale ʻi lalo ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu, pea ko ia ki loto ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻa hono māukupu ʻo ia, pea ko hono tolu naʻe hongofulu ma fā ʻae hanga ʻi hono māukupu ʻo ia: he naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi hiliʻanga lalanga lausiʻi kituʻa ʻi he holisi maka ʻoe fale, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakamaʻu ia ki he holisi maka ʻoe fale.
7 Ekwakheni ithempeli, kwasetshenziswa amatshe ayebazwe alolongwa lapho ayevela khona kuphela, ngakho kwakungezwakali sando, ihloka loba yiphi insimbi yokwakha ethempelini ngesikhathi kusakhiwa.
Pea ʻi heʻene langa hake ʻae fale, naʻe langa ia ʻaki ʻae maka naʻe fakaʻosi ʻa hono teuteuʻi ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻomi ia ki ai; ko ia naʻe ʻikai patō ai ʻi he fale ha hamala, pe ha toki, pe ha meʻa fakatufunga ukamea, lolotonga ʻa hono langa hake.
8 Umnyango weguma laphansi wawungezansi yethempeli; kulamakhwelelo okuya esigcawini saphakathi kuthi kusuka lapho kwedlulele esigcawini sesithathu.
Naʻe tuʻu ʻae matapā ki he potu fale ʻi loto ki he potu fale toʻomataʻu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻi he tuʻunga mamiomio ki he fale ʻi loto, pea mei ai ʻi loto ki hono tolu.
9 Ngakho wakha ithempeli waliqeda, walifulela ngentungo lamapulanka ezigodo zomsedari.
Naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene langa ʻae fale mo fakaʻosi ia: pea naʻa ne ʻato ʻaki ʻae fale ʻae ngaahi lalanga mo e laupapa ʻoe ʻakau ko e sita.
10 Wasesakha izindlwana zalandelela imiduli yethempeli. Ubude bokuya phezulu kwendlwana ngayinye babuzingalo ezinhlanu, njalo zazibanjaniswe lemiduli yethempeli ngemijabo yezigodo zomsedari.
Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae ngaahi potuʻi fale ke falala ki he holisi maka kotoa pē ʻoe fale, ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ʻa hono māʻolunga: pea naʻe fakafalala ia ki he fale ʻaki ʻae ʻakau ko e sita.
11 Ilizwi likaThixo leza kuSolomoni lathi,
Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Solomone, ʻo pehē,
12 “Okwalelithempeli olakhayo, nxa ulandela iziqondiso zami, lemilayo yami ugcine konke engikulaya ngakho ukulandele, ngawe ngizagcwalisa zonke izithembiso engazenza kuyihlo uDavida.
“Ko e fale eni ʻoku ke fokotuʻu, pea kapau te ke ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fono, mo fai ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau, pea tauhi ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fekau ke ʻeveʻeva ʻi ai; pehē, te u toki fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻeku lea kiate koe, ʻaia naʻaku lea ʻaki kia Tevita ko hoʻo tamai:
13 Ngizahlala phakathi kwabantu bako-Israyeli njalo angiyikubatshiya abantu bami bako-Israyeli.”
pea te u nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli.”
14 Ngakho uSolomoni wakha ithempeli waliqeda.
Ko ia naʻe langa ʻe Solomone ʻae fale, pea naʻa ne fakaʻosi ia.
15 Wacecisa emidulini yangaphakathi ngamapulanka omsedari, wavala ececisa kusukela phansi kusiya ephahleni, walungisa iphansi lethempeli ngamapulanka ezigodo zephayini.
Pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻae holisi maka ki loto fale ʻaki ʻae laupapa sita, mei he faliki ʻoe fale ʻo aʻu hake ʻi he holisi maka ki he ʻato: naʻa ne ʻaofi ia ʻaki ʻae ʻakau, pea naʻa ne faliki ʻaki ʻae fale ʻae laupapa, mei he ʻakau ko e paini.
16 Waquma wavala indawo ezingalo ezingamatshumi amabili emsamo wethempeli ngamapulanka omsedari kusukela phansi kusiya ephahleni esakha isiphephelo sangaphakathi kwethempeli, iNdawo eNgcwelengcwele.
Pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻae holisi ʻoe fale, ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu ʻaki ʻae laupapa sita, ʻio, ʻae faliki [ʻoe fale ]pea mo e holisi; naʻa ne ngaohi pehē ia ki loto maʻae folofolaʻanga, pea mo e potu toputapu ʻaupito.
17 Indlu enkulu phambi kwaleyo yona yayizingalo ezingamatshumi amane ubude bayo.
Pea ko e fale, ʻio, ʻae falelotu naʻe ʻi hono ʻao, ko e hanga ʻe valungofulu ʻa hono lōloa.
18 Ngaphakathi kwethempeli kwakwakhiwe ngomsedari, ubazwe iziduku lamaluba aqhakazileyo. Konke kwakungumsedari, kungabonakali litshe lelilodwa.
Pea naʻe tongitongi ki he sita ʻoe loto fale ʻae fuaʻi ʻakau, mo e ngaahi fisi kuo tatala: naʻe sita kotoa pē; naʻe ʻikai ke ha ai ha maka.
19 Walungisa isiphephelo ngaphakathi kwethempeli ukubeka ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo khonapho.
Pea naʻa ne teuteuʻi ʻae folofolaʻanga ʻi he potu fale ki loto, ke tuku ki ai ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova.
20 Isiphephelo sangaphakathi sasizingalo ezingamatshumi amabili ubude, amatshumi amabili ububanzi njalo kungamatshumi amabili ukuyaphezulu. Wahuqa ingaphakathi ngegolide elicengekileyo, wasehuqa le-alithari lomsedari.
Pea ko hono lōloa ʻoe folofolaʻanga ki muʻa ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māʻolunga ʻo ia ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu: pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae koula moʻoniia; pea naʻe ʻaofia foki ʻae feilaulauʻanga sita.
21 USolomoni wahuqa ingaphakathi yethempeli ngegolide elicengekileyo, njalo wengezelela amaketane egolide aquma phambi kwesiphephelo sangaphakathi, sona esasihuqwe ngegolide.
Ko ia, naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae loto fale ʻo Solomone ʻaki ʻae koula haohaoa: pea naʻa ne vahevahe [ʻae fale ]ʻaki ʻae ngaahi seini koula ki muʻa ʻi he folofolaʻanga; pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula.
22 Ngakho wahuqa ingaphakathi yonke ngegolide. Wasehuqa njalo ngegolide i-alithari elalingelesiphephelo sangaphakathi.
Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae fale kātoa, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae fale kātoa ʻi hono ʻai: pea ko e feilaulauʻanga kātoa naʻe ofi ki he folofolaʻanga, naʻa ne ʻaofi ia ʻaki ʻae koula.
23 Phakathi kwesiphephelo sangaphakathi wenza amakherubhi amabili ngesihlahla somʼoliva, ubude bokuya phezulu ngalinye buzingalo ezilitshumi.
Pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe folofolaʻanga naʻa ne ngaohi ai ʻae ongo selupi mei he ʻakau ko e ʻolive, ko hona māʻolunga taki taha ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.
24 Uphiko olulodwa lwekherubhi lakuqala lwaluzingalo ezinhlanu ubude balo, kanye lalolu olunye uphiko lwaluzingalo ezinhlanu, ingalo ezilitshumi kusukela ekucineni kophiko kusiya ekucineni kophiko.
Pea ko e kapakau ʻe taha ʻoe selupi ko hono lōloa ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu, pea ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ʻae lōloa ʻoe kapakau ʻoe selupi ʻe taha: mei he mui kapakau ʻe taha ʻo aʻu atu ki he mui kapakau ʻe taha ko hono lōloa ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.
25 Ikherubhi lesibili lalo lalizingalo ezilitshumi, womabili amakherubhi ayelingana njalo efanana isimo.
Pea naʻe uofulu ʻae hanga ʻoe selupi ʻe taha: naʻe tatau pe ʻae ongo selupi ʻi hona fuofua pea mo hona lahi.
26 Ubude bokuya phezulu bekherubhi ngalinye babuzingalo ezilitshumi.
Ko e māʻolunga ʻoe selupi ʻe taha ko e hanga ʻe uofulu pea ne pehē foki ʻae selupi ʻe taha.
27 Amakherubhi wawafaka endlini ephakathi kwethempeli, amaphiko awo echayekile. Uphiko lwelinye ikherubhi lwathinta umduli wangapha kwathi uphiko lwelinye lalo lwathinta umduli ngale, kwathi phakathi laphakathi kwendlu amaphiko awo athintana.
Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae ongo selupi ki he potu fale ki loto; pea naʻe mafola atu ʻae kapakau ʻoe ongo selupi, pea naʻe lave ai ʻae kapakau ʻe taha ki he holisi fale, kae lave ʻae kapakau ʻoe selupi ʻe taha ki he holisi ʻe taha; pea naʻe felaveʻi ʻa hona kapakau ʻi loto fale.
28 Amakherubhi lawo wawahuqa ngegolide.
Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae ongo selupi ʻaki ʻae koula.
29 Emidulini indawana yonke ukubhoda ithempeli, ezindlini zangaphakathi lezangaphandle wabaza amakherubhi, lezihlahla zamalala lamaluba aqhakazileyo.
Pea naʻa ne tongitongi takatakai ki he ngaahi holisi ʻoe fale ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ki he selupimi, mo e ʻakau ko e ponga, pea mo e ngaahi fisiʻiʻakau kuo tatala, ʻi loto mo tuʻa.
30 Wahuqa njalo iphansi lezindlu zangaphandle lezangaphakathi kwethempeli ngegolide.
Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae faliki ʻoe fale ʻi loto mo ʻi tuʻa.
31 Emnyango wesiphephelo sangaphakathi wenza izivalo zamapulanka omʼoliva, imigubazi yakhona ilamacele amahlanu.
Pea ki he hūʻanga ʻoe folofolaʻanga naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe ʻakau ko e ʻolive: ko hono ʻakau fakalava mo e kau matapā ko e konga ʻe nima.
32 Kwathi ezivalweni zombili zomʼoliva wabaza amakherubhi, lezihlahla zamalala lamaluba aqhakazileyo, wahuqa amakherubhi lezihlahla zamalala ngegolide elikhandiweyo.
Ko e ongo matapā foki ko e ʻakau ʻolive; pea naʻa ne tongitongi ki ai ʻae fakatātā ki he selupimi, mo e ʻakau ko e ponga, mo e fisiʻiʻakau naʻe matala, pea ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae koula, mo ne ʻaofi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae selupimi, pea mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e ponga.
33 Ngokufananayo wenza imigubazi elamacele amane ngomʼoliva emnyango wokungena endlini enkulu.
Naʻe pehē foki ʻa ʻene ngaohi ki he matapā ʻoe falelotu ʻae pou ʻoe ʻakau ko e ʻolive; ko e ponga ʻe fā.
34 Wenza njalo izivalo zomphayini ezimbili, ngasinye singesigoqeka kabili.
Pea ko hono matapā ʻe ua naʻe ʻoe ʻakau ko e paini; naʻe faʻa mapelu ʻae potu ʻe ua ʻoe matapā ʻe taha, pea naʻe faʻa mapelu ʻae potu ʻe ua ʻoe matapā kehe ʻe taha.
35 Wabaza amakherubhi lezihlahla zamalala lamaluba aqhakazileyo kuzo wasewahuqa ngegolide likhandwe lalingana phezu kokubaziweyo.
Pea naʻa ne tongitongi ki ai ʻae selupimi mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e ponga mo e fisiʻiʻakau naʻe matala: pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula naʻe ʻai ke tatau mo e ngāue tongitongi.
36 Wakhela njalo iguma langaphakathi imizila emithathu ngamatshe abaziweyo lowodwa owemijabo yomsedari.
Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae lotoʻā ki loto ʻaki ʻae ʻotu maka ʻe tolu naʻe teuteuʻi, pea mo e ʻotu ʻe taha ʻoe lalanga sita.
37 Isisekelo sethempeli likaThixo samiswa ngomnyaka wesine ngenyanga kaZivi.
Naʻe fakatoka ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu, ʻi he māhina ko Sifi:
38 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye ngenyanga kaBhuli, inyanga yesificaminwembili, kwaba yikuphela kwethempeli lakhiwe njengokumiswa kwalo langeziqondiso zalo. Wayethethe iminyaka eyisikhombisa elakha.
Pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu, ʻi he māhina ko Puli, ʻaia ko hono valu ʻoe māhina, naʻe fakaʻosi ʻae fale ʻi hono potu kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau ki hono anga kotoa pē. Ko ia, naʻa ne fitu taʻu ʻi heʻene langa hake ia.
