1 Amakhosi 8
1 Ngakho iNkosi uSolomoni wamema abadala bako-Israyeli ukuthi beze kuye eJerusalema, bonke abazinhloko zezizwana lezinduna zezimuli zako-Israyeli, ukuthi balethe ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo lisuka eZiyoni, uMuzi kaDavida.
Sai Sarki Solomon ya tattara dattawan Urushalima a gabansa, da dukan shugabannin kabilu, da shugabannin iyalan Isra’ilawa, domin su kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji daga Sihiyona, Birnin Dawuda.
2 Amadoda wonke ako-Israyeli eza ndawonye enkosini uSolomoni ngesikhathi somkhosi ngenyanga ebizwa ngokuthi ngu-Ethanimi, inyanga yesikhombisa.
Dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka tattaru a gaban Sarki Solomon a lokacin biki, a watan Etanim, wato, wata na bakwai.
3 Kwathi bonke abadala bako-Israyeli sebefikile, abaphristi bathwala ibhokisi lesivumelwano,
Sa’ad da dukan dattawan Isra’ila suka iso, sai firistoci suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin,
4 njalo basebeletha ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo kanye leThente lokuHlanganela layo yonke imiceciso engcwele iphakathi kwalo. Abaphristi labaLevi bakuthwala lokhu,
suka haura da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji da kuma Tentin Sujada, da dukan kayayyaki masu tsarkin da suke cikinsa. Firistoci da Lawiyawa suka ɗauko su,
5 njalo inkosi uSolomoni kanye lebandla lonke lako-Israyeli babebuthene ndawonye phambi kwebhokisi lesivumelwano, benikela ngezimvu langenkomo ababengeke bakwazi ukuloba inani lazo loba ukuzibala.
sai Sarki Solomon da dukan taron Isra’ila da suka tattaru kewaye da shi a gaban akwatin alkawari, suka yi ta miƙa hadayar tumaki da bijimai masu yawa da ba a iya lissaftawa, ko ƙirgawa.
6 Abaphristi basebeletha ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaThixo endaweni yalo engcwele engaphakathi kwethempeli, iNdawo eNgcwelengcwele, basebelifaka ngaphansi kwamaphiko amakherubhi.
Sa’an nan firistoci suka kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji inda aka shirya masa, can ciki cikin haikali, a Wuri Mafi Tsarki, aka kuma sa shi a ƙarƙashin fikafikan kerubobin.
7 Amakherubhi elula impiko zawo phezu kwendawo yebhokisi lesivumelwano njalo agubuzela ibhokisi lesivumelwano kanye lezibambo zokulithwala.
Kerubobin sun buɗe fikafikansu a bisa wurin da akwatin alkawarin yake, suka inuwartar da akwatin alkawarin da sandunan ɗaukansa.
8 Izigodo lezi zazizinde zibonakala nxa useNdaweni eNgcwele phambi kwesiphephelo esingaphakathi, kodwa hatshi nxa ungaphandle kweNdawo eNgcwele; lezo zilokhu zimi njalo lalamuhla.
Waɗannan sandunan sun yi tsawo har ana iya ganin bakinsu daga Wuri Mai Tsarki a gaban wuri mai tsarki na can ciki, amma ba a iya ganinsu daga waje na Wuri Mai Tsarki ba. Suna nan kuwa a can har wa yau.
9 Kwakungelalutho ebhokisini lesivumelwano ngaphandle kwezibhebhedu ezimbili zamatshe uMosi ayezifake phakathi kwalo eseHorebhi lapho uThixo enza khona isivumelwano labako-Israyeli ngemva kokuphuma kwabo eGibhithe.
Ba kome a cikin akwatin alkawarin, sai dai alluna na dutse guda biyu waɗanda Musa ya ajiye a ciki tun a Horeb, inda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari da Isra’ilawa bayan sun fito Masar.
10 Kwathi abaphristi sebesukile eNdaweni eNgcwele, iyezi lagcwala lagubuzela ethempelini likaThixo.
Sa’ad da firistoci suka janye daga Wuri Mai Tsarki, sai girgije ya cika haikalin Ubangiji.
11 Abaphristi abenzanga inkonzo yabo ngenxa yeyezi, ngoba inkazimulo kaThixo yayigcwele ethempelini lakhe.
Firistocin kuwa ba su iya yin hidimarsu ba saboda girgijen, gama ɗaukakar Ubangiji ta cika haikalinsa.
12 Ngakho uSolomoni wathi, “UThixo utshilo ukuba uzahlala eyezini elimnyama;
Sai Solomon ya ce, “Ubangiji ya ce zai zauna a gizagizai masu duhu;
13 ngempela sengikwakhele ithempeli elibukekayo, indawo ozahlala kiyo kuze kube nini lanini.”
ga shi na gina haikali mai daraja dominka, inda za ka zauna har abada.”
14 Kwathi ibandla lonke lako-Israyeli lisemi khonapho, inkosi yaphenduka yalibusisa.
Yayinda dukan taron Isra’ila suke tsattsaye a can, sai sarki ya juya ya albarkace su.
15 Ngakho yasisithi: “Udumo kuye uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, yena ngesandla sakhe ophelelise ukwenza lokho akuthembisa ngowakhe umlomo ethembisa ubaba uDavida. Ngoba wathi,
Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ku yabi Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, wanda da hannunsa ya cika abin da ya yi alkawari da bakinsa ga mahaifina Dawuda. Gama ya ce,
16 ‘Kusukela mhla ngikhupha abantu bami abako-Israyeli eGibhithe, bengingakaze ngikhethe idolobho loba kukusiphi isizwana sako-Israyeli ukuthi ngakhelwe ithempeli leBizo lami khona, kodwa ngimkhethile uDavida ukuthi abuse abantu bami bako-Israyeli.’
‘Tun ran da na fitar da mutanena Isra’ila daga Masar, ban zaɓi wani birni a cikin wata kabilar Isra’ila a gina haikali domin Sunana yă kasance a can ba, amma na zaɓi Dawuda yă yi mulkin mutanena Isra’ila.’
17 Ubaba uDavida wayelakho enhliziyweni yakhe ukuthi akhe ithempeli leBizo likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
“Mahaifina Dawuda ya yi niyya a cikin zuciyarsa yă gina haikali saboda Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.
18 Kodwa uThixo wathi kubaba uDavida, ‘Wenza kuhle ngokuba lesifiso sokungakhela ithempeli leBizo lami enhliziyweni yakho.
Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa mahaifina Dawuda, ‘Saboda yana a zuciyarka ka gina haikali domin Sunana, ka yi daidai da ka yi niyyar wannan a zuciyarka.
19 Lanxa kunjalo, kakusuwe ozalakha lelothempeli, kodwa lizakwakhiwa yindodana yakho, eyinyama legazi lakho, yiyo ezakwakha ithempeli leBizo lami.’
Duk da haka, ba kai ba ne za ka gina haikali, amma ɗanka, wanda yake namanka da jininka, shi ne wanda zai gina haikali domin Sunana.’
20 UThixo usigcinile isithembiso asenzayo: Sengiyinkosi esikhundleni sikababa uDavida njalo khathesi sengihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sika-Israyeli njengokuthembisa kukaThixo, njalo sengakhele iBizo likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ithempeli.
“Ubangiji ya kiyaye alkawarin da ya yi. Na gāje Dawuda mahaifina, yanzu kuma ga shi na zauna a kujerar sarautar Isra’ila, kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari, na kuma gina haikali domin Sunan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.
21 Ngilungisile indawo khonaphana eyebhokisi lesivumelwano, kulapho okulesivumelwano sikaThixo asenza labokhokho ekubakhupheni kwakhe kwelamaGibhithe.”
Na tanada wuri saboda akwatin alkawari, akwatin da ya ƙunshi alkawarin da Ubangiji ya yi da kakanninmu sa’ad da ya fitar da su daga Masar.”
22 Ngalokho uSolomoni wema e-alithareni likaThixo phambi kwebandla lonke lako-Israyeli, welula izandla zakhe waziphakamisela ezulwini
Sai Solomon ya tsaya a gaban bagaden Ubangiji, a gaban dukan taron Isra’ila, ya ɗaga hannuwansa sama,
23 wasesithi: Oh “Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kakho uNkulunkulu onjengawe ezulwini phezulu loba emhlabeni ngaphansi, wena ogcina isivumelwano sakho sothando lezinceku zakho, wena oqhubeka ngenhliziyo yonke endleleni yakho.
ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, babu Allah kamar ka a sama can bisa, ko a ƙasa can ƙarƙashi, kai da kake kiyaye alkawarinka na ƙauna ga bayinka waɗanda suke cin gaba a hanyarka da dukan zuciyarsu.
24 Usigcinile isithembiso sakho encekwini yakho uDavida ongubaba; ngomlomo wakho uthembisile njalo ngesandla sakho ukugcwalisile lokho njengoba kunjalo lamuhla.
Ka kiyaye alkawarinka da ka yi wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina. Da bakinka ka yi alkawari, da hannunka kuma ka cika shi, yadda yake a yau.
25 Khathesi Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lezozithembiso owazenzayo lapho wathi, ‘Awuyikwehluleka loba sekutheni ukuzuza indoda ezahlala esihlalweni sami sobukhosi ko-Israyeli, nxa amadodana akho ezananzelela ukuhamba phambi kwami njengalokhu okwenzileyo wena.’
“Yanzu, ya Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, bari ka cika wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina alkawaran da ka yi masa sa’ad da ka ce, ‘Ba za ka taɓa rasa wani da zai zauna a gabana a kan kujerar sarautar Isra’ila ba, in kawai’ya’yanka maza sun yi hankali cikin dukan abubuwan da suke yi, don su yi tafiya a gabana kamar yadda ka yi.’
26 Ngakho khathesi, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kaligcwaliseke ilizwi lesithembiso owalikhuluma kubaba uDavida inceku yakho.
Yanzu fa, ya Allah na Isra’ila, bari maganarka da ka yi wa bawanka Dawuda mahaifina tă cika.
27 Kambe uNkulunkulu uzahlala emhlabeni na? Amazulu, kanye lezulu eliphakemeyo, alikulingani. Pho ithempeli leli engilakhileyo lingabe liyini kuwe na!
“Amma anya, Allah, za ka zauna a duniya? Sammai, har ma da saman sammai ba za tă iya riƙe ka ba, balle wannan haikalin da na gina!
28 Kodwa-ke akuzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho lokucela kwayo umusa, Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wami. Zwana ukukhala lokukhuleka kwenceku yakho phambi kwakho ngalolusuku.
Duk da haka ka ji addu’ar bawanka da kuma roƙonsa don jinƙai, ya Ubangiji Allahna. Ka ji kuka da addu’ar da bawanka yake yi a gabanka a wannan rana.
29 Sengathi amehlo akho angahlala phezu kwalelithempeli ebusuku lemini, yonale indawo owathi wena, ‘IBizo lami lizakuba khonapha,’ ukuze uzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho ngale indawo.
Bari idanunka su buɗe, su fuskanci wannan haikali dare da rana, wannan wurin da ka ce, ‘Sunana zai kasance a can,’ saboda ka ji addu’ar bawanka in yana fuskantar wannan wuri.
30 Zwana isikhalazo senceku yakho lesabantu bakho bako-Israyeli nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kule indawo. Zwana usezulwini okuyindawo yakho yokuhlala, njalo nxa usizwa, uthethelele.
Ka ji roƙon bawanka da kuma na mutanenka Isra’ila sa’ad da suka yi addu’a, suka fuskanci wannan wuri. Ka ji daga sama, mazauninka, kuma sa’ad da ka ji, ka gafarta.
31 Nxa umuntu angonela umakhelwane wakhe, afungiswe, abesefunga isifungo phambi kwe-alithari lakho kulelithempeli,
“Sa’ad da mutum ya yi abin da ba daidai ba ga maƙwabcinsa, an kuma bukace shi yă yi rantsuwa, sai ya zo ya rantse a gaban bagade a cikin haikalin nan,
32 zwana usezulwini wenze. Yahlulela phakathi kwezinceku zakho, umlahle olecala, wehlisele ekhanda lakhe lokho akwenzileyo. Tshono ukuthi ongonanga kalacala ukuze uveze ukuba msulwa kwakhe.

33 Nxa abantu bakho abako-Israyeli behlulwe yisitha ngenxa yokona kwabo phambi kwakho, kuthi nxa sebephendukela ngakuwe bebiza ibizo lakho, bekhuleka njalo becela intethelelo kuwe kulelithempeli,
“Sa’ad da abokan gāba suka ci mutanenka Isra’ila a yaƙi saboda sun yi maka zunubi, sa’ad da kuma suka dawo gare ka don su furta sunanka, suna addu’a suna roƙo gare ka a wannan haikali,

ka ji daga sama, ka gafarta zunubin mutanenka, ka kuma dawo da su ƙasar da ka ba wa kakanninsu.
35 Nxa amazulu evaleka njalo kungaselazulu ngenxa yokuthi abantu bakho bonile phambi kwakho, njalo nxa bekhuleka bekhangele kule indawo bavume ibizo lakho batshiye izono zabo ngoba ubatshayile,
“Sa’ad da sammai sun kulle, babu kuma ruwan sama domin mutane sun yi maka zunubi, sa’ad da suka yi addu’a suna fuskantar wannan wuri, suka kuma furta sunanka, suka juye daga zunubinsu domin ka hore su,
36 lapho-ke zwana usezulwini uthethelele izinceku zakho izono zazo, abantu bakho bako-Israyeli. Bafundise indlela yokuphila eqondileyo, uthumele izulu elizweni owalinika abantu bakho ukuba libe yilifa labo.
ka ji daga sama, ka kuma gafarta zunubin bayinka, mutanenka Isra’ila. Ka koya musu hanyar da ta dace ta rayuwa, ka kuma aika da ruwan sama a ƙasar da ka ba wa mutanenka gādo.
37 Nxa kufika indlala kumbe isifo elizweni, ukukhunta lengumane, isikhongwane lemihogoyi, loba behanqwa yizitha kwelinye lamadolobho abo, loba yincithakalo enganani loba ngumkhuhlane onjani ongeza,
“Sa’ad da yunwa ko annoba ta fāɗo a ƙasar, ko burtuntuna, ko fumfuna, ko fāri, ko tsutsa, ko kuwa abokan gāba sun yi musu kwanto, a wani daga cikin biranensu, duk wata cuta, ko ciwon da ya zo,
38 kuthi lanxa kusenziwa umkhuleko kumbe isicelo ngomunye wabantu bakho bako-Israyeli, ngulowo lalowo ezazela inhlupheko ezinhliziyweni yakhe njalo ephakamisele izandla zakhe kulelithempeli,

44 Nxa abantu bakho bephuma besiya empini ukuyakulwa lezitha zabo, loba kungaphi obathuma khona, njalo kuthi nxa bekhuleka kuThixo bekhangele edolobheni olikhethileyo wena kanye lethempelini engalakhela iBizo lakho,
“Sa’ad da mutanenka suka tafi yaƙi da abokan gābansu, a duk inda ka aike su, sa’ad da kuma suka yi addu’a ga Ubangiji suna fuskantar birnin da ka zaɓa, da kuma haikalin da na gina domin Sunanka,

Ka gafarta wa mutanenka, waɗanda suka yi maka zunubi; ka gafarta dukan laifofin da suka yi maka, ka kuma sa waɗanda suka ci su a yaƙi su ji tausayinsu.
51 ngoba bangabantu bakho njalo bayilifa lakho, bona owabakhipha eGibhithe, esihogweni esivuthayo esincibilikisa insimbi. (questioned)
Gama su mutanenka ne, abin gādonka, waɗanda ka fitar daga Masar, daga tanderu mai narken ƙarfe.
52 Sengathi amehlo akho angaba phezu kwenceku yakho ukukhala kwayo lokuncengela kwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli, sengathi ungalalela ukukhala kwabo bekhalaza kuwe.
“Bari idanunka su buɗe ga roƙon bawanka, ga roƙon mutanenka Isra’ila, bari kuma ka saurare su sa’ad da suka yi kuka gare ka.
53 Ngoba wabakhetha phakathi kwezizwe zonke zomhlaba ukuthi babe yilifa lakho, njengoba wakhuluma ngenceku yakho uMosi, lapho wena, Oh Thixo Wobukhosi, wakhipha okhokho bethu eGibhithe.”
Gama ka ware su daga dukan al’umman duniya su zama abin gādonka, kamar yadda aka furta ta wurin bawanka Musa sa’ad da kai, ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ka fitar da kakanninmu daga Masar.”
54 Kwathi uSolomoni eseqedile imikhuleko le lezikhalazo kuThixo, waphakama wema phambi kwe-alithari likaThixo, lapho ayekade eguqe khona ephakamisele izandla zakhe ezulwini.
Da Solomon ya gama dukan waɗannan addu’o’i da roƙe-roƙe ga Ubangiji, sai ya tashi daga gaban bagaden Ubangiji, inda ya durƙusa da hannuwansa a buɗe waje sama.
55 Waphakama wabusisa ibandla labako-Israyeli ngelizwi eliphezulu wathi:
Ya tashi ya kuma albarkaci dukan taron Isra’ila da babbar murya, yana cewa,
56 “Udumo kalube kuThixo, yena olethele abantu bako-Israyeli ukuphumula njengokwethembisa kwakhe. Akukho lokukodwa okungenzekanga kuzozonke izithembiso ezinhle azenza ngenceku yakhe uMosi.
“Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, wanda ya ba wa mutanensa hutu kamar dai yadda ya yi alkawari. Babu magana guda da ta kāsa cika cikin dukan alkawaransa masu kyau da ya yi ta wurin bawansa Musa.
57 Sengathi uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu angaba lathi njengoba wayelabokhokho bethu; sengathi angaze asitshiya loba asidele.
Bari Ubangiji Allah yă kasance tare da mu kamar yadda ya kasance da kakanninmu; kada yă taɓa rabu da mu, ko yă yashe mu.

Bari yă juye zukatanmu gare shi, don mu yi tafiya a cikin dukan hanyoyinsa, mu kuma kiyaye umarnansa, ƙa’idodinsa, da kuma farillan da ya ba wa kakanninmu.
59 Sengathi amazwi ami la, engikhuleka ngawo kuThixo, angaba seduze kukaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu emini lebusuku, ukuze aqinise izikhalazo zenceku yakhe lezikhalazo zabantu bakhe bako-Israyeli kusiya ngeziswelo zabo zemihla ngemihla,

61 Kodwa inhliziyo zenu azigcwale ukuzinikela kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, ukuphila ngezimiso zakhe lokulalela imilayo yakhe, njengakhathesi.”
Amma dole ku miƙa zukatanku ga Ubangiji Allahnmu, don ku rayu, ta wurin bin ƙa’idodinsa, ku kuma yi biyayya da umarnansa, kamar yadda kuke yi a wannan lokaci.”
62 Ngalokho inkosi labo bonke abako-Israyeli banikela imihlatshelo yabo phambi kukaThixo.
Sai sarki da dukan Isra’ila, suka miƙa hadayu a gaban Ubangiji.
63 USolomoni wanikela ngomhlatshelo weminikelo yobudlelwano kuThixo; inkomo ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili, izimvu lembuzi ezizinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili. Ngokunjalo inkosi labo bonke abako-Israyeli banikela ithempeli likaThixo.

64 Ngalelolanga inkosi yangcwelisa iphakathi leguma phambi kwethempeli likaThixo, njalo kulapho eyanikela khona ngomnikelo wokutshiswa, umnikelo wamabele kanye lamafutha eminikelo yobudlelwano ngoba i-alithari lethusi elaliphambi kukaThixo lalilincinyane kakhulu ukuthi kutshiselwe kilo iminikelo yokutshiswa, leminikelo yamabele leminikelo yamafutha obudlelwano.
A wannan rana sarki ya tsarkake sashe na tsakiyar fili a gaban haikalin Ubangiji, a can kuma ya miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa, hadaya ta gari, da kitsen hadaya ta salama, gama bagaden tagulla a gaban Ubangiji ya yi ƙanƙanta sosai da za a miƙa hadayun ƙonawa, hadayun hatsi, da kuma kitsen hadayun salama.
65 Ngakho uSolomoni wagcina umkhosi ngalesosikhathi ekanye lo-Israyeli wonke, ibandla elikhulu, abantu abavela eLebho Hamathi kusiya eSihotsheni saseGibhithe. Bawuthakazelela phambi kukaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu okwensuku eziyisikhombisa lezinye eziyisikhombisa njalo zaba litshumi lane sezizonke.
Ta haka Solomon da dukan Isra’ila, wato, babban taro, suka yi bikin a lokacin. Mutane suka zo, tun daga Lebo Hamat har zuwa Rafin Masar. Suka yi biki a gaban Ubangiji Allahnmu, kwana bakwai. Suka kuma ƙara kwana bakwai, kwanaki goma sha huɗu gaba ɗaya.
