1 Imilando 28
1 UDavida wasebuthanisa zonke iziphathamandla zakoIsrayeli, iziphathamandla zezizwe, leziphathamandla zezigaba ezazisebenzela inkosi, labaphathi bezinkulungwane, labaphathi bamakhulu, labaphathi bempahla yonke labezifuyo zenkosi labezamadodana ayo, lezinduna, lamaqhawe, lawo wonke amaqhawe alamandla, eJerusalema.
Dawid frɛɛ ne mpanyimfo nyinaa kɔɔ Yerusalem. Saa mpanyimfo no ne mmusuakuw no ntuanofo, asahene a wɔdeda asraafodɔm akuw dumien no ano, asraafo mpanyimfo a wɔaka no, wɔn a wɔhwɛ ɔhene agyapade ne ne mmoa so, ahemfi nhenkwaa, akofo akɛse ne akofo a wɔaka wɔ ahenni no mu no.
2 UDavida inkosi wasesima ngenyawo zakhe wathi: Ngilalelani, bafowethu labantu bami. Mina, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi indlu yokuphumula, leyisigcabha senyawo zikaNkulunkulu wethu, ngenza amalungiselelo okwakha.
Dawid sɔre gyinaa wɔn anim, kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Me nuanom ne me nkurɔfo, anka mepɛɛ sɛ misi asɔredan a wɔde Awurade Apam Adaka, Onyankopɔn anan ntiaso no besi afebɔɔ. Meyɛɛ ho ahoboa nyinaa sɛ mede rebesi,
3 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kimi: Kawuyikulakhela ibizo lami indlu, ngoba wena ungumuntu wempi, uchithe igazi elinengi.
nanso Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ wusi asɔredan de hyɛ me din anuonyam, efisɛ woyɛ ɔkofo a woahwie mogya bebree agu.’
4 Kanti iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli yangikhetha kuyo yonke indlu kababa ukuthi ngibe yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli kuze kube nininini; ngoba yakhetha uJuda ukuba ngumbusi, lendlini yakoJuda indlu kababa; laphakathi kwamadodana kababa yangithanda ukungenza ngibe yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke.
“Nanso Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, ayi me wɔ mʼagya abusua mu sɛ, minni ɔhene wɔ Israel so daa. Na wayi Yuda abusuakuw sɛ wonni hene na Yuda mmusua mu nso, oyii mʼagya abusua. Na mʼagya mma mu no nso, ɛyɛɛ Awurade fɛ sɛ osii me Israel nyinaa so hene.
5 Lakuwo wonke amadodana ami (ngoba iNkosi yanginika amadodana amanengi) yakhetha uSolomoni indodana yami ukuthi ahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso weNkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli.
Na me mmabarima pii a Awurade de wɔn maa me no mu nso, oyii Salomo sɛ ɔntena Awurade ahenni agua no so nni Israel so.
6 Yasisithi kimi: USolomoni indodana yakho nguye ozakwakha indlu yami lamaguma ami, ngoba ngimkhethile ukuba yindodana yami, lami ngizakuba nguyise.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Wo babarima Salomo na obesi mʼasɔredan ne nʼadiwo nyinaa, efisɛ mayi no sɛ me babarima na mɛyɛ nʼagya.
7 Njalo ngizawuqinisa umbuso wakhe kuze kube nininini uba eqina ukwenza imilayo yami lezahlulelo zami njengalamuhla.
Na sɛ ɔkɔ so di mʼahyɛde ne me mmara so, sɛnea ɔyɛ mprempren yi a, mɛma nʼahenni atim afebɔɔ.’
8 Ngakho-ke phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke, ibandla leNkosi, lendlebeni zikaNkulunkulu wethu, gcinani lidinge yonke imilayo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu, ukuze lidle ilifa lalelilizwe elihle, lenze abantwana benu badle ilifa lalo emva kwenu kuze kube nininini.
“Enti mprempren a Onyankopɔn yɛ yɛn dansifo yi, menam wo so de saa asodi yi ma Israel nyinaa a wɔyɛ Awurade manfo no: Monhwɛ yiye na munni Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ahyɛde nyinaa so sɛnea mobɛfa saa asase pa yi, na moagyaw ama mo asefo sɛ wɔn agyapade daa.
9 Wena-ke, Solomoni ndodana yami, mazi uNkulunkulu kayihlo, umkhonze ngenhliziyo epheleleyo langengqondo evumayo; ngoba iNkosi iyazihlola zonke inhliziyo, iqedisise konke ukuzindla kwemicabango. Uba uyidinga, izatholwa nguwe; kodwa uba uyitshiya, izakulahla kokuphela.
“Afei, me ba Salomo, hu wʼagyanom Nyankopɔn. Fa wo koma ne wʼadwene nyinaa sɔre no, na som no. Efisɛ Awurade hu koma biara mu, enti ohu na onim emu nhyehyɛe ne nsusuwii biara. Sɛ wohwehwɛ no a, wubehu no. Na sɛ wopo no a, ɔbɛpo wo afebɔɔ.
10 Bona-ke, ngoba iNkosi ikukhethile ukuthi wakhe indlu ibe yindlu engcwele; qina, ukwenze.
Enti fa no asɛnhia. Awurade ayi wo sɛ si asɔredan ma no, sɛ ne kronkronbea. Yɛ den, na di dwuma no.”
11 UDavida wasenika uSolomoni indodana yakhe umdwebo wekhulusi, lowezindlu zalo, loweziphala zezinto eziligugu, lowamakamelo aphezulu, lowamakamelo aphakathi, lowendlu yesihlalo somusa.
Afei Dawid de asɔredan no ho mfoni a sikakorabea, soro adan, emu adan ne emu kronkronbea a Apam Adaka no afefare mu a ɛhɔ yɛ mpatabea, faako a wɔde Adaka no besi maa Salomo.
12 Lomdwebo wakho konke ayelakho ngoMoya, lowamaguma endlu yeNkosi, lowamakamelo wonke azingelezeleyo, loweziphala zezinto eziligugu zendlu kaNkulunkulu, loweziphala zokuligugu zezinto ezingcwele,
Nhyehyɛe biara a Honhom no de maa Dawid a ɛfa Awurade Asɔredan adiwo ho, akyi adan, Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu sikakorabea ne akyɛde a wɔde ama Onyankopɔn no, ɔkyerɛɛ Salomo.
13 lowezigaba zabapristi lezamaLevi, lowomsebenzi wonke wenkonzo yendlu yeNkosi, lowezitsha zonke zenkonzo yendlu yeNkosi.
Saa ara na ɔhene no kyerɛɛ Salomo dwuma a asɔfo ne Lewifo nkyekyɛmu ahorow no nyɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu. Na ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ nneɛma pɔtee a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu a wɔde sɔre Awurade ne nea wɔde bɔ afɔre.
14 Wapha igolide ngesisindo ngezinto zegolide, ngempahla yonke yenkonzo ngenkonzo, ngempahla yonke yesiliva ngesisindo, ngempahla yonke yenkonzo ngenkonzo,
Dawid kyerɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ dodow a wɔmfa nyɛ nneɛma a ɛho behia.
15 lesisindo sezinti zesibane zegolide, lezibane zazo zegolide, ngesisindo soluthi lwesibane ngalunye lezibane zalo, langezinti zesibane zesiliva, ngesisindo soluthi lwesibane lezibane zalo, njengomsebenzi woluthi lwesibane ngalunye.
Ɔkyerɛɛ Salomo sikakɔkɔɔ dodow a ɛho behia ama sikakɔkɔɔ akaneadua no ne akanea no, na ɔkyerɛɛ dwetɛ dodow a ɛho behia ama dwetɛ akaneadua no ne akanea no yɛ, ne ɔkwan ko a wɔbɛfa so de emu biara adi dwuma no.
16 Wasenika igolide ngesisindo lamatafula ezinkwa zokubukiswa, ngalelo lalelotafula, lesiliva samatafula esiliva.
Ɔkyerɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ dodow a wɔmfa nyɛ ɔpon a wɔde Daa Daa Brodo no bɛto so; na ɔkyerɛɛ dwetɛ dodow a wɔmfa nyɛ apon a ɛka ho no.
17 Lamafologwe lemiganu yokufafaza lezinkezo zegolide elicwengekileyo, langezitsha zegolide ngesisindo saleso lalesositsha, langezitsha zesiliva ngesisindo saleso lalesositsha.
Dawid san kyerɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ dodow a wɔmfa nyɛ nam darewa a wɔde besuso afɔrebɔ nam mu, hweaseammɔ, sukuruwa ne nyowa ne dwetɛ dodow a wɔmfa nyɛ asanka biara.
18 Langelathi lempepha igolide elicwengekileyo ngesisindo, langomdwebo wenqola yamakherubhi egolide elule impiko agubuzela umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi.
Nea ɔde wiee ne sɛ, ɔkyerɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔabere ho dodow a wɔde bɛyɛ nnuhuam afɔremuka no ne sikakɔkɔɔ kerubim a ne ntaban atrɛw wɔ Awurade Adaka no so.
19 UDavida wathi: Konke lokhu iNkosi yenza ngikuqedisise ngombhalo ngesandla sayo phezu kwami, yonke imisebenzi yomdwebo.
Dawid ka kyerɛɛ Salomo se, “Saa mfoni yi nyinaa, Awurade nsa na ɔde kyerɛw maa me.”
20 UDavida wasesithi kuSolomoni indodana yakhe: Qina, ube lesibindi, usebenze; ungesabi, ungatshaywa luvalo; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu wami, ilawe. Kayisoze yakulahla, kayisoze yakutshiya, uze uqede umsebenzi wonke wenkonzo yendlu yeNkosi.
Afei, Dawid toaa so se, “Yɛ den na ma wo bo nyɛ duru na yɛ adwuma no. Nsuro na mma dwumadi no kɛseyɛ ntu wo bo, efisɛ Awurade Nyankopɔn, me Nyankopɔn, ka wo ho. Ɔrenni wo huammɔ na ɔrennya wo. Ɔbɛhwɛ sɛ dwumadi biara a ɛfa Awurade Asɔredan no si ho no, wobewie no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
21 Khangela-ke, izigaba zabapristi lezamaLevi, zenkonzo yonke yendlu kaNkulunkulu; njalo kuzakuba lawe kuwo wonke umsebenzi, wonke oyingcitshi ovumayo kuyo yonke inkonzo, labaphathi labo bonke abantu bazakuba njengokulaya kwakho konke.
Asɔfo ne Lewifo akuw no bɛsom wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu. Wɔn a aka a wɔwɔ nimdeɛ ahorow no nyinaa beyi wɔn yam aboa, na ntuanofo ne ɔman no nyinaa nso bɛyɛ biribiara a wobɛka.”
