2 Imilando 1
1 USolomoni indodana kaDavida waqina embusweni wakhe, ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe wayelaye njalo wamenza waba mkhulu kakhulu.
Pea naʻe fakamālohi ʻa Solomone ko e foha ʻo Tevita ʻi hono puleʻanga, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, ʻo ne fakahikihiki ia ke lahi ʻaupito.
2 Kwathi uSolomoni wakhuluma kubo bonke abako-Israyeli kusukela kubalawuli bezinkulungwane labalawuli bamakhulu, kusiya kubahluleli lakubo bonke abakhokheli bako-Israyeli, abazinhloko zezimuli
Pea naʻe toki lea ʻa Solomone ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ki he houʻeiki pule ʻoe ngaahi toko afe, mo e ngaahi toko teau, pea ki he kau fakamaau, pea ki he ngaahi pule fonua kotoa pē ʻi ʻIsileli, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tamai.
3 kwaze kwathi yena uSolomoni lebandla lonke baya endaweni ephakemeyo yokukhonzela eGibhiyoni, njengoba ithente lokuhlanganela likaNkulunkulu, elalenziwe nguMosi inceku kaThixo enkangala lalikuleyondawo.
Pea ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Solomone, mo e fakataha kotoa pē mo ia, ki he potu māʻolunga naʻe ʻi Kipione; he naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻi he toafa ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova.
4 UDavida wayeselethe ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu lisuka eKhiriyathi-Jeyarimi elisa endaweni ayelilungisele yona, ngoba wayeselimisele ithente eJerusalema.
Ka kuo ʻomi ʻe Tevita ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua mei Kesa-Sialimi ki he potu naʻe teuteu ʻe Tevita ki ai: he naʻa ne fokotuʻu ha fale fehikitaki ki ai ʻi Selūsalema.
5 Kodwa i-alithari lethusi elalakhiwe nguBhezaleli indodana ka-Uri, indodana kaHuri, laliseGibhiyoni phambi kwethabanikeli likaThixo; ngakho uSolomoni lebandla lonke bahamba ukuyafuna intando yakhe khona.
Pea ko e feilaulauʻanga palasa foki, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Pesalili ko e foha ʻo Uli ko e foha ʻo Hua naʻa ne tuku ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova: pea naʻe kumi ki ai ʻe Solomone pea mo e fakataha.
6 USolomoni wasesiya e-Alithareni lethusi phambi kukaThixo ethenteni lokuhlanganela wafika wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa eyinkulungwane phezu kwalo.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ki ai ʻa Solomone ki he feilaulauʻanga palasa ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea ne ʻatu ai ʻi hono funga ha ngaahi feilaulau tutu ʻe taha afe.
7 Ngalobobusuku uNkulunkulu wabonakala kuSolomoni wathi kuye: “Cela loba kuyini okufunayo ukuze ngikunike khona.”
Pea ʻi he pō ko ia naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kia Solomone, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kole mai ha meʻa te u foaki kiate koe.”
8 USolomoni ephendula uNkulunkulu wathi: “Utshengisile umusa omkhulu kakhulu kubaba uDavida njalo mina usungibeke ngaba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solomone ki he ʻOtua, “Kuo ke fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa lahi kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamai, pea kuo ke tuku au ke u fetongi ia ʻi he pule.
9 Khathesi, Thixo Nkulunkulu, gcwalisa isithembiso owasenza kubaba uDavida, ngoba ungenze inkosi phezu kwabantu abanengi okothuli lomhlabathi.
Pea ko eni, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, tuku ke fakapapau ʻae talaʻofa naʻe fai ki heʻeku tamai ko Tevita: he kuo ke tuku au ko e tuʻi ki ha kakai ʻoku lahi ʻo hangē ko e efu ʻoe kelekele.
10 Nginika ukuhlakanipha lolwazi, ukuze ngikhokhele lababantu, ngoba ngubani ongabusa abantu bakho abanengi kangaka?”
Foaki mai eni ʻae poto mo e ʻiloʻilo, koeʻuhi ke u faʻa feʻaluʻaki ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai: he ko hai ʻoku faʻa fakamaau ʻa hoʻo kakai lahi ni?”
11 UNkulunkulu wathi kuSolomoni, “Njengoba lesi kuyisifiso somoya wakho njalo kawucelanga impahla lenotho lodumo, lokubhubha kwalabo abakuzondayo, lokuthi awucelanga impilo ende kodwa ucele inhlakanipho lolwazi ukuze ubuse phezu kwabantu bami engikwenze waba yinkosi yabo,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kia Solomone, “Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻi ho loto ʻae meʻa ni pea kuo ʻikai te ke kole ha koloa, pe ko e maʻu meʻa, pe ko e ongoongo lahi, pe ko e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fili, pe te ke kole ke ke moʻui fuoloa: ka kuo ke kole ki he poto mo e ʻiloʻilo maʻau, koeʻuhi ke ke faʻa fakamoʻui ai ʻa hoku kakai, ʻaia kuo u tuku koe ke ke tuʻi ki ai:
12 ngenxa yalokho ngizakunika inhlakanipho lolwazi. Njalo ngizakunika impahla, lenotho lodumo, okungakaze kwenzakale emakhosini akwandulelayo njalo akuyikwenzakala lakumakhosi alandelayo.”
Kuo foaki kiate koe ʻae poto mo e ʻiloʻilo: pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae koloa mo e maʻu meʻa, mo e ongoongo lahi, kuo teʻeki ke maʻu ʻo lahi pehē ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kuo ʻi muʻa ange ʻiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻo tatau mo ia ʻe ha tokotaha ʻe muimui kiate koe.”
13 Ngakho uSolomoni waya eJerusalema esuka endaweni yokukhonzela eGibhiyoni, evela phambi kwethente lokuhlanganela. Wabusa phezu kuka-Israyeli.
Pea hili eni naʻe haʻu ʻa Solomone mei he potu māʻolunga naʻe ʻi Kipione ki Selūsalema, mei he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea naʻa ne pule ki ʻIsileli.
14 USolomoni wabuthanisa izinqola zokulwa lamabhiza; wayelezinqola zokulwa ezingamakhulu alitshumi lane lamabhiza azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili, ayekugcina emizini yezinqola zezimpi okunye ekugcina yena eJerusalema.
Pea naʻe tānaki ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau tangata heka hoosi: pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻae saliote ʻe taha afe ma fāngeau, mo e kau heka hoosi ʻe taha mano ma ua afe, pea naʻa ne tuku ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi kolo tukunga saliote, pea ke nofo mo e tuʻi ʻi Selūsalema.
15 Inkosi yandisa isiliva legolide eJerusalema kwangani ngamatshe, lezihlahla zomsedari zanda kwangani yizihlahla zomkhiwa wesikhamore emawatheni ezintaba.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ʻae siliva mo e koula ke hangē ko e maka ʻi Selūsalema, pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻo lahi ʻae ngaahi ʻakau sita ke tatau mo e ngaahi ʻakau sukamino ʻi he potu talalo.
16 Amabhiza kaSolomoni ayethengwe eGibhithe laseKhuwe, abathengi besikhosini babewathenga eKhuwe.
Pea naʻe ʻomi kia Solomone ʻae fanga hoosi mei ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe tānaki: pea naʻe maʻu ʻaia naʻe tānaki ʻe he kau fakatau ʻae tuʻi ʻi he totongi.
17 Bathenga inqola yempi eGibhithe ngamashekeli esiliva angamakhulu ayisithupha kanye lebhiza ngamashekeli alikhulu elilamatshumi amahlanu. Babuya bawedlulisa wonke bayawathengisela amakhosi amaHithi kanye lawama-Aramu.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu mo ʻohake ha saliote mei ʻIsipite ko hono totongi ko e [konga ]siliva ʻe onongeau: pea ko e totongi ki ha hoosi ʻe taha ko e teau ma nimangofulu: pea naʻe pehē ʻenau taufetuku foki ia ki he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe kakai Heti pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Silia.
