2 Imilando 9
1 Indlovukazi yaseShebha isizwile ngodumo lukaSolomoni, yaya eJerusalema ukuba iyemlinga ngemibuzo enzima. Yayiphelekezelwa ludwende olukhulu, amakamela ayethwele iziyoliso, igolide elinengi kakhulu lamatshe aligugu, yafika kuSolomoni yaxoxa laye ngakho konke eyayikumumethe.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ki he ongoongo ʻo Solomone naʻa ne haʻu ki Selūsalema ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa Solomone ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fehuʻi ʻilongataʻa, ko ia mo e fuʻu fononga tokolahi, mo e fanga kāmeli naʻe fetuku ʻae ngaahi meʻa namu kakala, mo e koula lahi ʻaupito, mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai kia Solomone, naʻa ne talanoa mo ia ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻi hono loto.
2 USolomoni wayiphendula yonke imibuzo yayo, akubanga lalutho olwaba nzima ukuthi aluchasisele yona.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Solomone ʻa ʻene ngaahi fehuʻi kotoa pē: pea naʻe ʻikai fufū meia Solomone ha meʻa ke ne taʻefakamatala ia kiate ia.
3 Inkosikazi yaseShebha isibonile konke ukuhlakanipha kukaSolomoni, lesigodlo ayesakhile,
Pea hili ʻae mamata ʻe he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ki he poto kotoa pē ʻa Solomone, pea mo e fale ʻaia naʻa ne langa,
4 lokudla kwakhe, lokuhlaliswa kwezinduna zakhe, lokuhlelwa kwezinceku zakhe lezigqoko zazo, labaphathi benkezo lezigqoko zabo, leminikelo yokutshiswa ayeyinikela ethempelini likaThixo, kwayiqeda amandla.
Mo e meʻakai ʻi hono keinangaʻanga, mo e anga ʻoe nofo ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e toutuʻu, ʻa ʻene kau tauhi, mo honau kofu: mo kinautolu foki naʻe tauhi ʻa ʻene meʻainu, mo honau kofu ʻonautolu, pea mo e hala ʻaia naʻa ne ʻalu hake ai ki he fale ʻo Sihova: naʻe vaivai ʻa hono loto ʻiate ia.
5 Yathi enkosini, “Imibiko ebifika ezindlebeni zami elizweni lami ngengqubelaphambili langenhlakanipho yakho iqotho.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he tuʻi, “Ta ko e lea moʻoni ia ʻaia naʻaku fanongo ki ai ʻi hoku fonua ʻoʻoku, ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue pea mo hoʻo poto.
6 Ngibe ngingayikholwa leyo mbiko ngaze ngazibonela ngawami amehlo. Ngeqiniso, akufiki engxenyeni engikuzwileyo ngokujula kwenhlakanipho yakho; engikubonileyo kwedlula engakuzwayo ngawe ngokuphindwe kanengi.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te u tui ki heʻenau lea, kaeʻoua ke u haʻu, pea mamata ki ai ʻa hoku mata: pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai tala mai hono vaheua ʻoe lahi ʻo hoʻo poto: he ʻoku ke lahi hake ʻi he ongoongo ko ia naʻaku fanongo ki ai.
7 Yeka ukujabula kwabantu bakho! Yeka ziyadela izikhulu zakho, ezihlezi zimi phambi kwakho zizizwela inhlakanipho yakho!
ʻOku monūʻia ʻa hoʻo kau tangata, ʻoku monūʻia ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko eni ʻoku tutuʻumaʻu aipe ʻi ho ʻao, ʻo [nau ]fanongo ki hoʻo poto.
8 Udumo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakho, obe lokuthokoza ngawe wakufaka esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi ukuba ube yinkosi ubusele uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho. Ngenxa yothando lukaNkulunkulu wakho ngo-Israyeli, lokuzimisela ukubamela kuze kube nininini, ukubekile waba yinkosi phezu kwabo, ukuze ulondoloze ukwahlulela ngemfanelo langokulunga.”
Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo lōlōfie lelei kiate koe ke fakanofo koe ki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi, ko e tuʻi maʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻofa ʻa ho ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli, ke fokotuʻu ʻakinautolu ke taʻengata: ko ia naʻa ne fakanofo ai koe ke tuʻi kiate kinautolu, ke fai ʻae fakamaau mo e fai totonu.”
9 Indlovukazi yasinika uSolomoni amathalenta egolide alikhulu elilamatshumi amabili, iziyoliso ezinengi, lamatshe aligugu. Kwakungakaze kube leziyoliso ezinjengalezo ezaphiwa inkosi uSolomoni yindlovukazi yaseShebha.
Pea naʻa ne foaki ki he tuʻi ʻae taleniti koula ʻe teau ma uofulu, mo e ngaahi meʻa namu kakala fuʻu lahi ʻaupito, mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea naʻe ʻikai ha ngaahi meʻa kakala ke tatau mo ia naʻe foaki kia Solomone ʻe he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa.
10 (Izinceku zikaHiramu lezikaSolomoni zaletha igolide livela e-Ofiri; zaletha lezigodo zomʼaligumu lamatshe aligugu.
Pea ko e kau tamaioʻeiki foki ʻa Helami mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ʻae koula mei Ofeli, naʻa [nau ]ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ʻalikumi pea mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga.
11 Inkosi yasebenzisa izigodo zomʼaligumu ukwakha inyathelo lethempeli likaThixo lenyathelo lesigodlo sesikhosini, kanye lokwenza imihubhe lemiqangala yabahlabeleli. Kwakungakaze kubonakale okunjengalokhu kwelakoJuda).
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ʻalikumi, ʻae ngaahi pou ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi, mo e ngaahi haʻape mo e ngaahi meʻa hiva maʻae kau fasi hiva: pea naʻe teʻeki ai ke mamata ʻe he fonua ʻo Siuta ki he ngaahi meʻa pehē.
12 Inkosi uSolomoni yapha inkosikazi yaseShebha okwedlula lokho eyayikucelile, kwakukunengi kugabhela lokho ayekuphathelwe yinkosikazi. Yavalelisa-ke inkosikazi yabuyela elizweni layo lobhobo lwezindwendwe zayo.
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Solomone ki he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ʻa ʻene holi kotoa pē, ʻae meʻa fulipē naʻa ne kole ki ai, ko e fakalahi ʻo ʻene [tali ʻae koloa ]naʻa ne fetuku mai ki he tuʻi. Pea pehē, naʻa ne liliu atu, ʻo ʻalu ki hono fonua ʻoʻona ʻaia mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
13 Isisindo segolide elalifika kuSolomoni minyaka yonke lalingamathalenta angamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisithupha lasithupha,
Pea ko eni, ko hono mamafa ʻoe koula naʻe ʻomi kia Solomone ʻi he taʻu pe taha, ko e taleniti ʻe onongeau mo e onongofulu ma ono ʻoe koula:
14 kungabalwa inzuzo eyayivela emithelweni yabathengisi labathengi. Kunjalo-nje amakhosi ase-Arabhiya leziphathamandla zelizwe zaletha igolide lesiliva kuSolomoni.
Ka naʻe lau kehe ʻaia naʻe fetuku mai ʻe he kau tangata naʻe fai ʻae fefakatauʻaki. Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻae koula mo e siliva kia Solomone ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻAlepea, pea ʻe he kau pule ʻoe ngaahi vahe fonua.
15 Inkosi uSolomoni yenza amahawu amakhulu angamakhulu amabili ngegolide elikhandiweyo; lilinye langena amashekeli angamakhulu ayisithupha.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻae ngaahi pā ʻe uangeau ʻaki ʻae koula naʻe tuki: ko e [sikeli ]ʻe onongeau ʻoe koula naʻe ʻi he pā pe taha.
16 Inkosi yasisenza ezinye ezincinyane ezingamakhulu amathathu ngegolide elikhandiweyo, sisinye sithatha amashekeli egolide elikhandiweyo angamakhulu amathathu. Inkosi yazibeka eSigodlweni saseGuswini laseLebhanoni.
Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi pā iiki ʻe tolungeau ʻaki ʻae koula naʻe tuki: ko e [sikeli ]ʻe tolungeau ʻoe koula naʻe ʻi he pā pe taha. Pea naʻe tuku ia ʻe he tuʻi ki he fale ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻo Lepanoni.
17 Ngakho inkosi yasisenza isihlalo esikhulu sinanyekwe ngempondo zendlovu ngaphakathi kodwa ngaphandle kuligolide elihle.
Naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe he tuʻi ha fuʻu nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻaki ʻae lei, pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula lelei lahi.
18 Isihlalo sobukhosi sasilezinyathelo eziyisithupha njalo kulesenabelo segolide esasixhunywe kuso. Emaceleni esihlalo kwakulezeyamelo zengalo, yileso laleso kumi isilwane eceleni kwaso.
Naʻe ai ʻae lakaʻanga ʻe ono ke [ʻalu hake ai ]ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi, mo e tuʻunga vaʻe koula, ʻaia naʻe fakamaʻu ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi, mo e ʻaiʻanga nima ʻi hono potu kaokao ʻe ua ʻoe hekaʻanga, mo e laione ʻe ua naʻe tuʻu ofi ki he ʻaiʻanga nima:
19 Izilwane ezilitshumi lambili zazimi kulawomakhwelelo ayisithupha, sisinye simi nganxanye kwekhwelelo ngalinye. Kakukho okunjalo okwakuke kwenzekala loba kuwuphi umbuso.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻi hono potu ʻe taha ʻae laione ʻe hongofulu ma ua, pea ʻi he potu kehe ʻe taha ʻi he lakaʻanga ʻe ono. Naʻe ʻikai ngaohi hano tatau ʻi ha puleʻanga.
20 Zonke inkezo zenkosi uSolomoni zazingezegolide, lazozonke izitsha zeSigodlweni saseGuswini laseLebhanoni zazingezegolide elicolekileyo. Akukho okwakwenziwe ngesiliva ngoba ngensuku zikaSolomoni igugu lesiliva lalilincinyane kakhulu.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae ngaahi ipu inu kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi ko Solomone, pea naʻe ʻoe koula lelei ʻae ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻo Lepanoni: naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻoe siliva: he naʻe ʻikai lau ia ko e meʻa mahuʻinga ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Solomone.
21 Inkosi yayilodibi lwemikhumbi yezokuthengiselana eyayigwedlwa ngabantu bakaHiramu. Yayiphenduka kanye ngemva kohambo lweminyaka emithathu, iphenduka ithwele igolide, isiliva lempondo zendlovu, inkawu lendwangu.
He naʻe ʻalu ʻae folau ʻae tuʻi ki Tasisi fakataha mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Helami: naʻe haʻu tuʻo taha ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu ʻae folau mei Tasisi, ke ʻomi ʻae koula, mo e siliva, mo e lei, mo e fanga ngeli, pea mo e fanga pikoka.
22 Inkosi uSolomoni yawedlula wonke amakhosi omhlaba ngenotho langenhlakanipho.
Pea naʻe lahi hake ʻae maʻu koloa mo e poto ʻa Solomone ʻi he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
23 Amakhosi wonke omhlaba eza kuSolomoni ukuzokuzwa inhlakanipho uNkulunkulu ayeyifake enhliziyweni yakhe.
Pea naʻe holi ke haʻu ki he ʻao ʻo Solomone ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ke fanongo ki heʻene poto, ʻaia naʻe tuku ki hono loto ʻe he ʻOtua.
24 Minyaka yonke amlethela izipho zesiliva lezegolide, izembatho, izikhali leziyoliso, lamabhiza kanye lezimbongolo.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa ʻene meʻaʻofa, ko e ngaahi meʻa siliva, mo e ngaahi meʻa koula, mo e ngaahi kofu, mo e ngaahi mahafutau, mo e meʻa namu kakala, mo e fanga hoosi, mo e fanga miuli, ko e tukuhau ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē.
25 USolomoni wayelezibaya zamabhiza lezezinqola zokulwa ezizinkulungwane ezine, kanye lamabhiza azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili, ayekugcina emizini yezinqola zokulwa okunye njalo kukuye khonapho eJerusalema.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Solomone ʻae potu fale tuʻuʻanga ʻe fā afe ki he fanga hoosi mo e ngaahi saliote, pea mo e kau heka hoosi ʻe taha mano mo e ua afe: ʻaia naʻa ne vahevahe [ke nofo ]ʻi he ngaahi kolo saliote, pea ki he tuʻi ʻi Selūsalema.
26 Wabusa wonke amakhosi kusukela emfuleni iYufrathe kusiya elizweni lamaFilistiya, lasemngceleni weGibhithe.
Pea naʻa ne pule ki he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē mei he vaitafe ʻo aʻu atu ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea ʻe aʻu ki he mata fonua ʻo ʻIsipite.
27 Inkosi yandisa isiliva kwangani ngamatshe eJerusalema, lezihlahla zomsedari zanda kwangani yizihlahla zomkhiwa wesikhamore emawatheni ezintaba.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻae siliva ʻe he tuʻi ke tatau ʻi Selūsalema mo e ngaahi maka, pea ko e ngaahi ʻakau sita naʻe hangē ia ko e ngaahi ʻakau sukamino ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ngaahi potu tokalelei, ʻi hono lahi ʻaupito.
28 USolomoni wayezuza amabhiza ayevela eGibhithe lakuwo wonke amanye amazwe.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi kia Solomone ʻae fanga hoosi mei ʻIsipite, pea mei he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē.
29 Ezinye izehlakalo ezenzakala ekubuseni kukaSolomoni kazilotshwanga yini kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekucineni, ezindabeni zomlandu kaNathani umphrofethi, lasesiphrofethini sika-Ahija waseShilo, lasemibonweni ka-Ido umboni emayelana loJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi?
Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone, mei he ʻuluaki ki he kimui, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Natani ko e palōfita, pea ʻi he kikite ʻo ʻAhisa ko e tangata Sailo, pea ʻi he ngaahi kikite ʻo Ito ko e tangata kikite naʻe valoki kia Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati?
30 USolomoni wabusa u-Israyeli wonke eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amane.
Pea naʻe pule ʻa Solomone ʻi Selūsalema ki ʻIsileli kātoa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu.
31 Waya kwabaphansi, wangcwatshwa emzini kaDavida uyise. URehobhowami indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Solomone mo ʻene ngaahi tamai pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi he “Kolo ʻo Tevita” ko ʻene tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Lehopoami.
