1 Amakhosi 11
1 Inkosi uSolomoni yayithanda-ke abafazi abanengi bezizweni, kanye lendodakazi kaFaro, amaMowabikazi, amaAmonikazi, amaEdomikazi, amaSidonikazi, amaHethikazi,
U A aloha aku la o Solomona ke alii i na wahine e he nui no, me ke kaikamahine pu a Parao, na wahine o ka Moaba, a o ka Amora, a o ka Edoma, a o ko Sidona, a me ka Heta;
2 ababevela ezizweni iNkosi eyayithe ngazo kubantwana bakoIsrayeli: Kaliyikungena kibo, labo kabayikungena kini; isibili bazaphendula inhliziyo yenu ilandele onkulunkulu babo. Bona uSolomoni wabanamathela ngothando.
O ko na lahuikanaka a Iehova i olelo mai ai i na mamo a Iseraela, Aole oukou e komo aku io lakou la, aole hoi lakou e komo mai io oukou nei, no ka mea, e hoohuli io lakou la i ko oukou naau mamuli o ko lakou mau akua; hoopili ae la o Solomona ia lakou me ke aloha.
3 Wayelabafazi abangamakhulu ayisikhombisa, amakhosazana, labafazi abancane abangamakhulu amathathu; abafazi bakhe basebephambula inhliziyo yakhe.
A loaa ia ia ehiku haneri wahine, na wahine alii, a ekolu haneri haiawahine; a hoohuli e aku kana mau wahine i kona naau.
4 Ngoba kwathi esikhathini sokuluphala kukaSolomoni, abafazi bakhe baphambulela inhliziyo yakhe ekulandeleni abanye onkulunkulu, lenhliziyo yakhe yayingaphelelanga kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe, njengenhliziyo kaDavida uyise.
O keia hoi, a elemakule ae la o Solomona, ua hoohuli ae kana mau wahine i kona naau mamuli o na akua e; aole i hemolele kona naau ia Iehova kona Akua, e like me ka naau o Davida kona makuakane.
5 Ngoba uSolomoni wahamba emva kukaAshitarothi unkulunkulu wamaSidoni lemva kukaMilkomu isinengiso samaAmoni.
No ka mea ua hahai ae la o Solomona mamuli o Aseterota ke akua wahine o ko Sidona, a mamuli o Milekoma ka mea i hoowahawahaia o ka Amona.
6 USolomoni wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, kayilandelanga ngokupheleleyo iNkosi njengoDavida uyise.
A hana ino ae la o Solomona ma ke alo o Iehova, aole hele okoa mamuli o Iehova, e like me Davida kona makuakane.
7 Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wakhela uKemoshi isinengiso sakoMowabi indawo ephakemeyo entabeni ephambi kweJerusalema, loMoleki isinengiso sabantwana bakoAmoni.
Alaila hana ae la o Solomona i wahi kiekie no Kemosaka mea inainaia o ka Moaba, ma ka puu mamua o Ierusalema, a no Moleka ka mea inainaia o na mamo a Amona.
8 Langokunjalo wabenzela bonke abafazi bakhe bezizweni abatshisa impepha bahlabela onkulunkulu babo.
Pela ia i hana'i no na wahine e ana a pau i kukuni i ka mea ala a i kaumaha aku no ko lakou mau akua.
9 INkosi yasimthukuthelela uSolomoni, ngoba inhliziyo yakhe yayiphambukile eNkosini, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyayibonakele kuye kabili,
Huhu mai la o Iehova ia Solomona, no ka huli ana'e o kona naau mai o Iehova ae ke Akua o Iseraela, ka mea i ikeia e ia i na manawa elua;
10 yamlaya mayelana lalinto, ukuthi angalandeli abanye onkulunkulu; kodwa kagcinanga lokho iNkosi eyamlaya khona.
A i kauoha mai la hoi ia ia no keia mea, i ole ia e hahai mamuli o ua akua e: aka, aole oia i malama i ka mea a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia ia.
11 Ngakho iNkosi yathi kuSolomoni: Ngenxa yokuthi lokhu kwenziwe nguwe, ungagcinanga isivumelwano sami lezimiso zami, engakulaya khona, ngizawudabula lokuwudabula umbuso kuwe, ngiwunike inceku yakho.
Nolaila i olelo mai ai o Iehova ia Solomona, No kau hana ana ia mea, aole hoi i malama mai i kuu berita, a me ko'u mau kanawai a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe, e kaili ae auauei au i ke aupuni mai ou ae nei, a e haawi aku no ia i kau kauwa.
12 Kanti kangiyikukwenza ensukwini zakho ngenxa kaDavida uyihlo; ngizawudabula usuke esandleni sendodana yakho.
Aka, i kou mau la, aole au e hana i keia no Davida kou makuakane; aka, mailoko ae o ka lima o kau koiki e kaili ae ai au ia.
13 Loba kunjalo kangiyikudabula wonke umbuso; ngizanika indodana yakho isizwe esisodwa ngenxa kaDavida inceku yami langenxa yeJerusalema engiyikhethileyo.
Aole hoi au e kaili honua i ke aupuni a pau, e haawi aku no au i hookahi ohana i kau keiki no Davida ka'u kauwa, a no Ierusalema a'u i koho ai.
14 INkosi yasimvusela uSolomoni isitha, uHadadi umEdoma; wayengowenzalo yenkosi eEdoma.
Hooku mai la o Iehova i ka enemi ia Solomona, o Hadada no Edoma; no na keiki ia a ke alii ma Edoma.
15 Ngoba kwathi uDavida eseEdoma, uJowabi induna yebutho wayenyukele ukungcwaba ababuleweyo, watshaya wonke owesilisa eEdoma.
No ka mea, o keia kekahi, i ka wa i noho ai o Davida ma Edoma, hele ae la o Ioaba ka luna o ka poe koa e kanu i ka poe i pepehiia, mahope o kona pepehi ana ae i na kane a pau ma Edoma;
16 Ngoba uJowabi wahlala lapho inyanga eziyisithupha, loIsrayeli wonke, waze waquma wonke owesilisa eEdoma.
(No ka mea, ua noho o Ioaba malaila me ka Iseraela a pau i na malama eono, a oki aku oia i na kane a pau ma Edoma; )
17 Kodwa uHadadi wabaleka, yena lamaEdoma athile avela encekwini zikayise kanye laye, ukungena eGibhithe; njalo uHadadi wayengumfanyana.
Holo aku la o Hadada, oia me kekahi poe kanaka o Edoma pu o na kauwa o kona makuakane me ia, e hele pu i Aigupita; he keiki uuku o Hadada.
18 Basebesuka eMidiyani, bafika eParani, bathatha amadoda labo eParani, bafika eGibhithe, kuFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, owamnika indlu, wammisela ukudla, wamnika umhlabathi.
Puka ae la lakou mailoko ae o Midiana, a hele i Parana; a lawe pu lakou i kanaka mailoko ae o Parana, a hele i Aigupita ia Parao ke alii o Aigupita, nana no i haawi i hale nona, a hooponopono i ai nana, a haawi hoi i kahi aina ia ia.
19 UHadadi wasethola umusa omkhulu emehlweni kaFaro, waze wamendisela udadewabo womkakhe, udadewabo kaTapenesi indlovukazi.
A loaa ia Hadada ka lokomaikai nui ia ma ke alo o Parao, a haawi oia ia ia i ka hoahanau o kana wahine iho, ka hoahanau o Tapene ke alii wahine.
20 Udadewabo kaTapenesi wasemzalela uGenubathi indodana yakhe, uTapenesi amlumulela phakathi kwendlu kaFaro; njalo uGenubathi wayesendlini kaFaro phakathi kwabantwana bakaFaro.
A hanau mai la ka hoahanau o Tapene i keikikane nana, o Genubata, a na Tapene ia i ukuhi maloko o ka hale o Parao; a iloko no o Genubata o ka hale o Parao iwaena o na keiki a Parao.
21 Kwathi uHadadi esezwile eseGibhithe ukuthi uDavida ulele laboyise lokuthi uJowabi induna yebutho usefile, uHadadi wathi kuFaro: Ngivumela ngisuke ukuthi ngiye elizweni lakithi.
A lohe o Hadada ma Aigupita, ua hiamoe o Davida me kona mau makua, a ua make hoi o Ioaba ka luna o ka poe koa, i aku la o Hadada ia Parao, E hookuu ae ia'u e hele ae i ko'u aina,
22 UFaro wasesithi kuye: Kodwa usweleni ulami ukuthi, khangela, udinge ukuya elizweni lakini? Wasesithi: Akulalutho, loba kunjalo ngivumela lokungivumela ngihambe.
Alaila olelo mai la o Parao ia ia, Heaha kou mea hemahema ia'u, ea, i imi ai oe e hoi aku i kou aina? I aku la oia, Aohe, aka, e hookuu wale mai oe ia'u.
23 UNkulunkulu wasemvusela isitha, uRezoni indodana kaEliyada owayebalekile enkosini yakhe uHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba.
A hooku mai la ke Akua i kekahi enemi, o Rezona ke keiki a Eliada, ka mea i mahuka mai kona haku aku o Hadedezera ke alii o Zoba;
24 Wasezibuthela amadoda, waba ngumkhokheli weviyo, lapho uDavida ebabulala; basebesiya eDamaseko, bahlala kuyo, babusa eDamaseko.
Ua hoakoakoa ae la oia i kanaka io ua iho no, a lilo oia i lunakoa maluna o ka papa, i ka wa i pepehi ai o Davida ia lakou; a hele ae la lakou i Damaseko, a noho malaila, a ua alii ae la hoi ma Damaseko.
25 Wasesiba yisitha kuIsrayeli insuku zonke zikaSolomoni, phezu kobubi uHadadi abenzayo; njalo wanengwa nguIsrayeli, wabusa phezu kukaSiriya.
A ua ku e mai la oia i ka Iseraela i na la a pau o Solomona, okoa ke kolohe ana o Hadada: hoowahawaha mai la o Rezona i ka Iseraela, a ua alii ae la maluna o Suria.
26 LoJerobhowamu, indodana kaNebati, umEfrayimi weZereda, inceku kaSolomoni, obizo likanina lalinguZeruwa, owesifazana ongumfelokazi, laye waphakamisa isandla emelene lenkosi.
A o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, o ka Eperaima no Zereda, o Zerua ka inoa o kona makuwahine he wahinekanemake, o ke kauwa a Solomona, oia kekahi i hapai i ka lima ku e i ke alii.
27 Yilolu-ke udaba lokuthi aphakamise isandla emelene lenkosi. USolomoni wakha iMilo, wavala isikhala somuzi kaDavida uyise.
Eia ka kumu i hapai ai oia i ka lima i ku e i ke alii; kukulu ae la o Solomona ia Milo, a hoopaa iho la i na wahi naha o ke kulanakauhale o Davida kona makuakane.
28 UJerobhowamu wayeliqhawe elilamandla. Kwathi uSolomoni ebona lelijaha ukuthi likhuthele emsebenzini, walibeka phezu kwawo wonke umthwalo wendlu kaJosefa.
A o ke kanaka Ieroboama, he kanaka koa ikaika loa no ia; a ike ae la o Solomona i ua kanaka ui la e hoomau ana i ka hana, hoolilo ae la oia ia ia i luna maluna o ka ukana a pau o ka ohana o Iosepa.
29 Kwasekusithi ngalesosikhathi lapho uJerobhowamu ephuma eJerusalema, uAhiya umShilo umprofethi wamfica endleleni. Njalo wayezigqokise isigqoko esitsha; bobabili babebodwa egangeni.
Eia kekahi mea ia manawa, i ka puka ana'e o Ieroboama mai Ierusalema ae, loaa oia i ke kaula ia Ahiia no Silo, ma ke alanui, a ua hoaahu oia ia ia iho me ke aahu hou; a o laua wale no ma ke kula.
30 UAhiya wasesibamba isigqoko esitsha esasikuye, wasidabula iziqa ezilitshumi lambili,
Lalau iho la o Ahiia i ka aahu hou ka mea maluna iho ona, a uhae ae la ia mea i mau apana he umikumamalua.
31 wathi kuJerobhowamu: Zithathele iziqa ezilitshumi, ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangela, ngizadabula umbuso usuke esandleni sikaSolomoni, ngikunike izizwe ezilitshumi.
A olelo mai la oia ia Ieroboama, E lawe oe i na apana he umi; no ka mea, ke i mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela, peneia, Eia hoi, e kaili ae auanei au i ke aupuni mailoko ae o ka lima o Solomona, a e haawi au i na ohana he umi ia oe:
32 Kodwa yena uzakuba lesizwe esisodwa ngenxa yenceku yami uDavida langenxa yeJerusalema, umuzi engiwukhethileyo ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli.
Aka, ia ia no ka ohana hookahi no Davida ka'u kauwa, a no Ierusalema ke kulanakauhale a'u i koho ai mailoko mai o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela:
33 Ngenxa yokuthi bangitshiyile, bakhonza uAshitarothi unkulunkulu wamaSidoni, uKemoshi unkulunkulu wamaMowabi, loMilkomu unkulunkulu wabantwana bakoAmoni, kabahambanga ngendlela zami, ukwenza okulungileyo emehlweni ami, lokulondoloza izimiso zami lezahlulelo zami, njengoDavida uyise.
O No ka mea, ua haalele mai lakou ia'u, a ua hoomana ae ia Aseterota ke akua wahine o ko Sidona, ia Kemosa ke akua o ka Moaba, a ia Milekoma ke akua o na mamo a Amona, aole hoi i hele ma ko'u mau aoao, e hana i ka mea pono i ko'u mau maka, i ka malama i ko'u mau kanawai a me ko'u mau kapu, e like me Davida kona makuakane.
34 Loba kunjalo kangiyikuwususa umbuso wonke esandleni sakhe; kodwa ngizamenza abe ngumbusi zonke izinsuku zempilo yakhe ngenxa kaDavida inceku yami, engamkhethayo, owagcina imilayo yami lezimiso zami.
Aole nae au e kaili honua ae i ke aupuni a pau mailoko ae o kona lima; aka, e hoomau auanei au i kona alii ana i na la a pau o kona ola ana, no Davida ka'u kauwa, a'u i koho ai no kona malama ana i ka'u mau kauoha a me ko'u mau kanawai.
35 Kodwa ngizawususa umbuso esandleni sendodana yakhe, ngiwunike wena, izizwe ezilitshumi.
Aka, e kaili ae auanei au i ke aupuni mailoko ae o ka lima o kana keiki, a e haawi au ia ia oe, i na ohana he umi.
36 Lendodana yakhe ngizayinika isizwe sibe sinye ukuze uDavida inceku yami abe lesibane zonke izinsuku phambi kwami eJerusalema, umuzi engizikhethele wona ukuze ngibeke ibizo lami khona.
A i kana keiki, hookahi ohana ka'u e haawi aku ai, i mau ai ke kukui no Davida ka'u kauwa, imua o ko'u alo ma Ierusalema, ke kulanakauhale a'u i koho ai no'u e waiho ai i ko'u inoa malaila.
37 Wena-ke ngizakuthatha, uzabusa phezu kwakho konke umphefumulo wakho okuloyisayo, ube yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli.
A e lawe au ia oe, a e alii ae no oe mamuli o ka mea a pau a kou uhane e makemake ai, a e lilo no oe i alii no ka Iseraela.
38 Kuzakuthi-ke, uba ulalela konke engikulaya khona, uhambe ngezindlela zami, wenze okulungileyo emehlweni ami, ukugcina izimiso zami lemilayo yami, njengokwenza kukaDavida inceku yami, ngizakuba lawe, ngikwakhele indlu eqinileyo, njengengayakhela uDavida, ngizakunika uIsrayeli,
Peneia auanei hoi, ina e hoolohe mai oe i ka mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia oe, a e hele hoi ma ko'u mau aoao, a hana hoi i ka mea pono i ko'u mau maka, i ka malama i ko'u mau kanawai, a me ka'u mau kauoha me Davida ka'u kauwa i hana'i; alaila owau pu auanei me oe, a e kukulu au i hale ku paa nou me ka'u i kukulu ai no Davida, a e haawi au i ka Iseraela ia oe.
39 njalo ngihluphe inzalo kaDavida ngenxa yalokhu, kodwa kungabi kokuphela.
No keia mea, e hookaumaha ai au i na mamo a Davida, aole hoi i na la a pau loa.
40 Ngakho uSolomoni wadinga ukumbulala uJerobhowamu, kodwa uJerobhowamu wasuka wabalekela eGibhithe, kuShishaki inkosi yeGibhithe, wayeseGibhithe waze wafa uSolomoni.
A imi iho la o Solomona e pepehi ia Ieroboama; a ku ae la o Ieroboama iluna, a holo aku la i Aigupita io Sisaka la, ke alii o Aigupita, a noho ia ma Aigupita a make o Solomona.
41 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaSolomoni, lakho konke akwenzayo, lenhlakanipho yakhe, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwendaba zikaSolomoni?
A o na hana e ae a Solomona, a me na mea a pau ana i hana'i, a me kona akamai, aole anei ia i kakauia ma ka buke o na hana a Solomona?
42 Isikhathi-ke uSolomoni abusa ngaso eJerusalema phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke saba yiminyaka engamatshumi amane.
A o na la i alii ai o Solomona ma Ierusalema maluna o ka Iseraela a pau he kanaha mau makahiki.
43 USolomoni waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa emzini kaDavida uyise. URehobhowamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
A hiamoe iho la o Solomona me kona mau makua, a ua kanuia ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida kona makuakane, a alii ae la o Rehoboama kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
