1 Imilando 17
1 Kwasekusithi uDavida esehlezi endlini yakhe, uDavida wathi kuNathani umprofethi: Khangela, mina ngihlala endlini yemisedari, kodwa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi ungaphansi kwamakhetheni.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, lolotonga ʻae nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi hono fale, naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Natani ko e palōfita, “Vakai, ʻoku ou nofo au ʻi ha fale sita, ka ʻoku nofo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻi he lalo puipui [pe].”
2 UNathani wasesithi kuDavida: Yenza konke okusenhliziyweni yakho, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulawe.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Natani kia Tevita, “Ke ke fai ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ho loto; he ʻoku kau ʻae ʻOtua kiate koe.”
3 Kodwa kwathi ngabona lobobusuku ilizwi likaNkulunkulu lafika kuNathani, lisithi:
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pō pe ko ia, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Natani, ʻo pehē,
4 Hamba utshele uDavida inceku yami: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Wena kawuyikungakhela indlu yokuhlala.
“ʻAlu, ʻo fakahā kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻE ʻikai te ke langa ha fale kiate au ke u nofo ai:
5 Ngoba kangihlalanga endlini kusukela osukwini engenyusa ngalo uIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla, kodwa ngasuka ethenteni ngaya ethenteni njalo ngasuka ethabhanekeleni ngaya kwelinye.
He kuo ʻikai te u nofo ʻi ha fale talu mei he ʻaho naʻaku ʻomi ai ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni; ka kuo u feʻaluʻaki ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki, pea mo e fale fakaʻāunofo.
6 Loba ngaphi engihambe khona loIsrayeli wonke ngake ngakhuluma ilizwi yini komunye wabahluleli bakoIsrayeli, engabalaya ukwelusa abantu bami ngisithi: Yini lingangakhelanga indlu yemisedari?
ʻI he potu kotoa pē kuo u ʻalu ki ai mo ʻIsileli kātoa, kuo u lea fakasiʻisiʻi ki ha tokotaha ʻi he kau fakamaau ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu naʻaku fekauʻi he fafangaʻi ʻa hoku kakai, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai ai te mou langa moʻoku ha fale sita?’
7 Ngakho-ke uzakutsho njalo encekwini yami uDavida uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Mina ngakuthatha esibayeni sezimvu ekulandeleni izimvu ukuze ube ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
Ko ia foki, te ke lea ʻo pehē ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi, naʻaku toʻo mai koe mei he nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga sipi, mei he muimui ki he fanga sipi, koeʻuhi ke ke pule ki hoku kakai ʻIsileli:
8 Njalo ngaba lawe loba ngaphi oya khona, ngaquma zonke izitha zakho zasuka phambi kwakho, ngakwenzela ibizo njengebizo labakhulu abasemhlabeni.
Pea kuo u ʻiate koe ʻi he potu fulipē kuo ke ʻalu ki ai, pea kuo u motuhi ʻa ho ngaahi fili kotoa pē mei ho ʻao, pea kuo u ngaohi moʻou ha hingoa ke tatau mo e hingoa ʻoe kakai ongoongo lahi ʻaia ʻoku ʻi māmani.
9 Njalo ngizabamisela indawo abantu bami uIsrayeli, ngibagxumeke ukuze bahlale endaweni yabo, bangabe besanyikinywa; labantwana bobubi kabasayikubamotsha njengakuqala,
Pea te u vaheʻi foki ha potu mā ʻa hoku kakai ʻIsileli, pea te u tō ʻakinautolu, pea te nau nofo ʻi honau potu, pea ʻe ʻikai toe hiki ʻakinautolu; pea ʻe ʻikai toe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he fānau ʻoe angakovi, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻi he kamataʻanga,
10 njalo kusukela kulezonsuku engalaya abahluleli ukuthi babe phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli; ngazehlisela phansi zonke izitha zakho; njalo ngiyakutshela ukuthi iNKOSI izakwakhela indlu.
Pea talu mei he kuonga ko ia naʻaku fekauʻi ʻae kau fakamaau ke pule ki hoku kakai ʻIsileli. Ka te u fakamoʻulaloa foki ʻa ho ngaahi fili kotoa pē. Pea ʻoku ou tala foki kiate koe ʻe langa hake ho fale ʻoʻou ʻe Sihova.
11 Kuzakuthi-ke lapho insuku zakho sezigcwalisekile ukuthi uhambe laboyihlo, ngizavusa inzalo yakho emva kwakho, ezavela emadodaneni akho, ngiqinise umbuso wayo.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻosi ange ʻa ho ngaahi ʻaho pea ke ʻalu ai ki ho ngaahi tamai, te u fokotuʻu ho hako ʻamui ʻiate koe, ʻakinautolu ʻe tupu mei ho ngaahi foha; pea te u fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa hono puleʻanga.
12 Yena uzangakhela indlu, ngizaqinisa isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi kuze kube nininini.
Te ne langa ʻe ia ha fale moʻoku, pea te u fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke taʻengata.
13 Mina ngizakuba nguyise, yena abe yindodana yami; njalo kangiyikususa uthandolomusa wami kuye njengalokho ngalususa kulowo owayengaphambi kwakho.
Te u hoko ko ʻene tamai, pea te ne hoko ia ko hoku foha: pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻave ʻa ʻeku ʻaloʻofa meiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku ʻave ia meiate ia naʻe muʻa ʻiate koe:
14 Kodwa ngizamqinisa endlini yami lembusweni wami kuze kube nininini, lesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sizaqiniswa kuze kube nininini.
Ka te u fokotuʻumaʻu ia ʻi hoku fale pea ʻi hoku puleʻanga ʻo taʻengata: pea ʻe fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo taʻengata.’”
15 Njengawo wonke lamazwi lanjengawo wonke lumbono, ngokunjalo uNathani wakhuluma kuDavida.
Pea naʻe fai ʻae lea ʻa Natani kia Tevita ʻo tatau mo e ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē, pea tatau mo e meʻa ha mai ni kotoa pē.
16 Inkosi uDavida yasingena yahlala phambi kweNkosi, yathi: Mina ngingubani, Nkosi Nkulunkulu, lendlu yami iyini, ukuthi ungilethe kuze kube lapha?
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻo ne nofo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hai au, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, pea ko e hā ʻa hoku fale ʻoʻoku, kuo ke ʻomi ai au ʻo aʻu mai ki heni?
17 Lokhu bekukuncinyane emehlweni akho, Nkulunkulu; usukhulumile ngendlu yenceku yakho kusesekhatshana, wangibona ngokwesikhundla somuntu ophakemeyo, Nkosi Nkulunkulu.
Ka ko e meʻa siʻi eni ki ho fofonga, ʻe ʻOtua; he kuo ke folofola ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki ha kuonga fuoloa ʻaupito ʻe haʻu, pea kuo ke fai kiate au, ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ha tangata ʻoku ʻeiki lahi.
18 UDavida angenzani okunye kuwe ngodumo lwenceku yakho? Ngoba wena uyayazi inceku yakho.
Ko e hā ha toe lea ʻe faʻa fai ʻe Tevita maʻae ongoongolelei ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki? He ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻe koe ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
19 Nkosi, ngenxa yenceku yakho langokwenhliziyo yakho wenzile zonke lezizinto ezinkulu ukwazisa zonke lezizinto ezinkulu.
ʻE Sihova, koeʻuhi ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pea ʻo hangē ko ho finangalo pe ʻoʻou, kuo ke fai ʻae meʻa lahi ni kotoa pē, ʻi hoʻo fakahā mai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi ni.
20 Nkosi, kakho onjengawe, njalo kakho uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwakho, njengakho konke esikuzwileyo ngendlebe zethu.
ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku tatau mo koe, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻOtua ka ko koe pe, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē kuo fanongo ki ai ʻa homau telinga.
21 Njalo ngubani onjengabantu bakho uIsrayeli, isizwe esisodwa emhlabeni, uNkulunkulu owayazihlengela sona sibe ngabantu, ukuzenzela ibizo ngezenzo ezinkulu lezesabekayo, ngokuxotsha elifeni izizwe ukuzisusa phambi kwabantu bakho owabahlenga eGibhithe?
Pea kofaʻā ia ha puleʻanga ʻe taha ʻi māmani kuo tatau mo hoʻo kakai ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae ʻOtua ke huhuʻi ko hono kakai ʻoʻona, ke ngaohi koe ko e hingoa lahi mo fakamanavahē ʻia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene kapusi atu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga mei he ʻao ʻo hoʻo kakai, ʻakinautolu kuo ke huhuʻi mai mei ʻIsipite?
22 Ngoba wenza abantu bakho uIsrayeli ukuthi babe ngabantu bakho kuze kube nininini; lawe Nkosi waba nguNkulunkulu wabo.
He naʻa ke ngaohi ʻa hoʻo kakai ʻIsileli, ko ho kakai ʻoʻou ke taʻengata; pea ko koe, ʻE Sihova, naʻa ke hoko ko honau ʻOtua.
23 Khathesi-ke, Nkosi, ilizwi owalikhuluma ngenceku yakho langendlu yayo kaliqiniswe kuze kube nininini, wenze njengokukhuluma kwakho.
Ko ia foki, ʻE Sihova, tuku ʻae meʻa kuo ke folofolaʻaki ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pea mo hono fale, ke fokotuʻumaʻu ʻo taʻengata, pea ke fai ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola.
24 Yebo kaliqiniswe, lebizo lakho kalibe likhulu kuze kube nininini, kuthiwa: INkosi yamabandla inguNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, nguNkulunkulu koIsrayeli; lendlu kaDavida inceku yakho kayimiswe phambi kwakho.
ʻIo, tuku ke fokotuʻumaʻu ia, koeʻuhi ke fakahikihikiʻi ʻa ho huafa ʻo taʻengata, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi ko e ʻOtua ia ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻio, ko e ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli:’ pea ke fokotuʻumaʻu ʻi ho ʻao ʻae fale ʻo Tevita ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
25 Ngoba wena, Nkulunkulu wami, wembule endlebeni yenceku yakho ukuthi uzayakhela indlu; ngenxa yalokho inceku yakho ithole enhliziyweni ukukhuleka phambi kwakho.
He ko koe, ʻE hoku ʻOtua, kuo ke fakahā ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki te ke langa ha fale moʻona: ko ia kuo loto ai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ke lotu ʻi ho ʻao.
26 Khathesi-ke, Nkosi, wena unguye uNkulunkulu, ukhulume lokhu okuhle ngenceku yakho.
Pea ko eni, ʻE Sihova, ko koe ko e ʻOtua, pea kuo ke talaʻofa ʻaki ʻae lelei ni ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki:
27 Khathesi-ke, kukuthokozisile ukubusisa indlu yenceku yakho ukuze ibe phambi kwakho kuze kube nininini; ngoba, wena Nkosi, uyabusisa, njalo izabusiswa kuze kube nini lanini.
Ko ia foki, ʻofa ke ke tāpuaki ʻae fale ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke ʻi ho ʻao ia maʻuaipē; he ʻoku ke fai hono tāpuakiʻi ʻe koe, ʻE Sihova, pea ʻe monūʻia ia ʻo taʻengata.”
