1 Basebewuletha umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, bawumisa phakathi kwethente uDavida ayelimisele wona; basebenikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
Awo ne baleeta essanduuko ya Mukama, ne bagiyingiza mu weema Dawudi gye yali agisimbidde, ne bawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe eri Katonda.
2 UDavida eseqedile ukunikela umnikelo wokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula wababusisa abantu ebizweni leNkosi.
Awo Dawudi bwe yamala okuwaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, n’asabira abantu omukisa mu linnya lya Mukama,
3 Wasesabela wonke umuntu wakoIsrayeli kusukela kowesilisa kuze kube kowesifazana, kwaba ngulowo lalowo isinkwa esisodwa, leqatha lenyama, lesinkwa sezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo.
era n’agabira buli Muyisirayiri omusajja n’omukazi, omugaati n’ekitole eky’ezabbibu enkalu, n’ekiyungula ky’ennyama.
4 Wasemisa izikhonzi kumaLevi phambi komtshokotsho weNkosi, ngitsho ukukhumbula lokubonga lokudumisa iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
Yalonda abamu ku Baleevi okuweerezanga mu maaso g’essanduuko ya Mukama, okukoowoola nga basaba, nga beebaza, era nga batendereza Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri.
5 UAsafi inhloko, lowesibili kuye uZekhariya, uJeyiyeli, loShemiramothi, loJehiyeli, loMathithiya, loEliyabi, loBhenaya, loObedi-Edoma, loJeyiyeli belezinto zezigubhu zezintambo njalo lamachacho; uAsafi wasezizwakalisa ngezinsimbi ezincencethayo;
Asafu ye yali omukulu waabwe, Zekkaliya n’amuddirira, Yeyeeri n’addako, n’oluvannyuma Semiramosi, ne Yekyeri, ne Mattisiya, ne Eriyaabu, ne Benaya, ne Obededomu, ne Yeyeri, abookukuba entongooli n’ennanga, Asafu ye ng’akuba ebitaasa.
6 loBhenaya loJahaziyeli abapristi ngezimpondo njalonjalo phambi komtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu.
Benaya ne Yakaziyeeri bakabona be baafuuwanga amakondeere bulijjo mu maaso g’essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Katonda.
7 Ngalesosikhathi ngalolosuku uDavida wanika kuqala lesisihlabelelo ukudumisa iNkosi ngesandla sikaAsafi labafowabo:
Awo ku lunaku olwo, Dawudi n’alagira Asafu n’abantu be yakolanga nabo, basooke okwebaza Mukama nga bagamba nti:
8 Bongani iNkosi, libize ibizo layo, lazise phakathi kwabantu izenzo zayo.
Mwebaze Mukama, mukoowoole erinnya lye, mumanyise ebikolwa bye mu mawanga.
9 Hlabelelani kuyo, liyihubele amahubo, lilandise ngezenzo zayo ezimangalisayo.
Mumuyimbire, muyimbe okumutendereza mwogere ku byamagero bye byonna.
10 Zincomeni ebizweni layo elingcwele, kayithokoze inhliziyo yabo abadinga iNkosi.
Erinnya lye ligulumizibwe, n’emitima gy’abo abanoonya Mukama gisanyuke.
11 Dingani iNkosi lamandla ayo, lidinge ubuso bayo njalonjalo.
Mutunuulire Mukama n’amaanyi ge; munoonye amaaso ge ennaku zonna.
12 Khumbulani izimangaliso zayo eyazenzayo, izibonakaliso zayo, lezahlulelo zomlomo wayo,
Mujjukire ebyewuunyo by’akoze, n’ebyamagero bye, n’ensala ye ey’emisango gy’alangirira,
13 nzalo kaIsrayeli inceku yayo, bantwana bakaJakobe, abakhethiweyo bayo.
mmwe abazzukulu ba Isirayiri, abaweereza be, mmwe abaana ba Yakobo, abalonde be.
14 IyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu; izahlulelo zayo zisemhlabeni wonke.
Ye Mukama Katonda waffe; okusalawo kwe okw’emisango kubuna ensi yonna.
15 Khumbulani isivumelwano sayo kuze kube nininini, ilizwi eyalilaya kuzinkulungwane zezizukulwana,
Ajjukira endagaano ye emirembe gyonna, n’ekigambo kye yalagira, okutuusa ku mirembe olukumi,
16 eyasenza loAbrahama, lesifungo sakhe kuIsaka,
gye yakola ne Ibulayimu, era n’agirayiza Isaaka.
17 eyasiqinisa lakuJakobe saba yisimiso, kuIsrayeli saba yisivumelwano esilaphakade,
N’aginyweza ng’etteeka eri Yakobo, n’eri Isirayiri ng’endagaano ey’olubeerera,
18 isithi: Ngizakunika ilizwe leKhanani, inkatho yelifa lakho.
ng’agamba nti, “Ndikuwa ensi ya Kanani, ng’omugabo, ogw’obusika bwo.”
19 Lapho lalibalutshwana ngenani, yebo libalutshwana, njalo liyizihambi kulo.
Omuwendo gwabwe bwe gwali omutono, era omutono ddala, nga batambuze mu yo,
20 Basebezula besuka esizweni besiya esizweni, besuka embusweni besiya kwabanye abantu.
baatambulatambulanga okuva mu nsi emu okudda mu ndala, n’okuva mu bwakabaka obumu okudda mu bantu abalala.
21 Kayivumelanga muntu ukubacindezela; yebo yakhuza amakhosi ngenxa yabo:
Teyaganya muntu n’omu kubanyigiriza; weewaawo, yanenya bakabaka ku lwabwe:
22 Lingathinti abagcotshiweyo bami, lingoni abaprofethi bami.
ng’agamba nti, “Temukwatanga ku abo be nnafukako amafuta, so bannabbi bange temubakolanga akabi.”
23 Hlabelelani eNkosini, mhlaba wonke, litshumayele insuku ngensuku usindiso lwayo.
Muyimbire Mukama, mmwe ensi zonna; mulangirire obulokozi bwe buli lunaku.
24 Landisani udumo lwayo phakathi kwezizwe, izimangaliso zayo phakathi kwabantu bonke.
Mubuulire ekitiibwa kye mu mawanga, n’ebikolwa bye ebyamagero mu bantu bonna.
25 Ngoba yinkulu iNkosi, ifanele ukudunyiswa kakhulu, iyesabeka phezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.
Mukama mukulu era asaanira okutenderezebwa; era atiibwenga okusinga bakatonda abalala bonna.
26 Ngoba bonke onkulunkulu bezizwe bayizithombe; kodwa iNkosi yenza amazulu.
Bakatonda bonna abamawanga bifaananyi, naye Mukama ye yakola eggulu.
27 Udumo lenkazimulo kuphambi kwayo, amandla lentokozo kusendaweni yayo.
Ekitiibwa n’obukulu biri mu maaso ge, amaanyi n’essanyu biri wamu naye.
28 Inikeni iNkosi, zizukulwana zezizwe, inikeni iNkosi udumo lamandla.
Mugulumize Mukama, mmwe ebika eby’amawanga byonna, mutende ekitiibwa kya Mukama awamu n’amaanyi ge.
29 Inikeni iNkosi udumo lwebizo layo, lethani umnikelo lize phambi kwayo. Ikhonzeni iNkosi ebuhleni bobungcwele.
Muyimusize Mukama ekitiibwa ekigwanira erinnya lye; muleete ekiweebwayo, mujje mu maaso ge; musinze Mukama mu kitiibwa ky’obutukuvu bwe.
30 Lithuthumele phambi kwayo, mhlaba wonke; njalo umhlaba uzaqiniswa, kawuyikunyikinyeka.
Mukankane mu maaso ge ensi yonna, weewaawo ensi nywevu, teyinza kusesetulwa.
31 Kawathokoze amazulu, lomhlaba ujabule, kabatsho phakathi kwezizwe ukuthi: INkosi iyabusa.
Eggulu lisanyuke, n’ensi ejaguze; boogere mu mawanga nti, “Mukama afuga!”
32 Kaluhlokome ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo, iganga kalithabe lakho konke okukulo.
Ennyanja ewuume, n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ennimiro zijaguze, n’okujjula kwazo!
33 Khona zizahlabelela ngentokozo izihlahla zehlathi phambi kweNkosi, ngoba iyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba.
Awo emiti egy’omu kibira ginaayimba, ginaayimbira Mukama n’essanyu, kubanga akomawo okusalira ensi omusango.
34 Bongani iNkosi ngoba ilungile, ngoba umusa wayo umi kuze kube phakade.
Weebaze Mukama kubanga mulungi; era okwagala kwe kubeerera emirembe gyonna.
35 Lithi futhi: Sisindise, Nkulunkulu wosindiso lwethu, usibuthe usikhulule ezizweni, ukuze sibonge ibizo lakho elingcwele, sizincome kudumo lwakho.
Mwogerere waggulu nti, “Tulokole, Ayi Katonda ow’obulokozi bwaffe; tukuŋŋaanye, otulokole eri amawanga, twebaze erinnya lyo ettukuvu, era tujagulize mu ttendo lyo.”
36 Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade. Bonke abantu basebesithi: Ameni. Basebeyidumisa iNkosi.
Mukama yeebazibwe, Katonda wa Isirayiri ow’emirembe n’emirembe. Abantu bonna ne baddamu nti, “Amiina, Mukama yeebazibwe.”
37 Wasetshiya lapho phambi komtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi oAsafi labafowabo ukukhonza phambi komtshokotsho njalonjalo njengodaba losuku ngosuku lwalo.
Awo Dawudi n’aleka Asafu n’ababeezi be, okuweereza Mukama mu maaso g’essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama, nga bwe kyagwaniranga buli lunaku.
38 LoObedi-Edoma kanye labafowabo, abangamatshumi ayisithupha lesificaminwembili; uObedi-Edoma indodana kaJeduthuni loHosa babengabagcini bamasango.
Obededomu n’ababeezi be enkaaga mu omunaana nabo yabaleka baweereze eyo. Obededomu mutabani wa Yedusuni, era ne Kosa be baali abaggazi.
39 LoZadoki umpristi labafowabo abapristi phambi kwethabhanekele leNkosi endaweni ephakemeyo eyayiseGibeyoni,
Dawudi yaleka Zadooki, kabona ne bakabona banne mu maaso g’eweema ya Mukama mu kifo ekigulumivu e Gibyoni
40 ukuze banikele iminikelo yokutshiswa eNkosini phezu kwelathi lomnikelo wokutshiswa njalonjalo ekuseni lakusihlwa, lanjengakho konke okubhaliweyo emlayweni weNkosi, eyawulaya uIsrayeli.
okuwangayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama ku kyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, buli nkya na buli kawungeezi, nga byonna bwe byawandiikibwa mu mateeka ga Mukama, ge yawa Isirayiri.
41 Njalo kanye labo oHemani loJeduthuni labanye ababekhethiwe abamiswa ngamabizo ukubonga iNkosi, ngoba umusa wayo umi kuze kube phakade.
Kemani ne Yedusuni n’abalala abaalondebwa ne bayitibwa amannya gaabwe okwebaza Mukama, “kubanga okwagala kwe kubeerera emirembe gyonna,” baali wamu nabo.
42 Njalo kanye labo oHemani loJeduthuni babelezimpondo lezinsimbi ezincencethayo zalabo abazizwakalisayo, lezinto zokuhlabelela zikaNkulunkulu. Lamadodana kaJeduthuni ayesesangweni.
Era Kemani ne Yedusuni baavunaanyizibwanga okufuuwa amakondeere, n’okukuba ebitaasa, n’okukubira ebivuga ebirala ku luyimba lwa Katonda. Batabani ba Yedusuni baabeeranga ku wankaaki.
43 Basebehamba bonke abantu, ngulowo lalowo waya endlini yakhe. UDavida wasebuyela ukubusisa indlu yakhe.
Awo abantu bonna ne baddayo ewaabwe, ne Dawudi n’addayo okusabira ennyumba ye omukisa.
