1 USolomoni wasehlangana ngomtshado loFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, wathatha indodakazi kaFaro, wayiletha emzini kaDavida waze waqeda ukwakha indlu yakhe lendlu yeNkosi lomduli weJerusalema ozingelezeleyo.
Solomon notimo winjruok gi Farao ruodh Misri mi nokendo nyare. Nokele e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi nyaka notieko gero ode owuon mar loch kod od Jehova Nyasaye mar lemo gi ohinga molworo Jerusalem.
2 Kube kanti abantu babenikela umhlatshelo endaweni eziphakemeyo, ngoba kwakungakhelwanga ibizo leNkosi indlu kwaze kwaba yilezonsuku.
Ji to pod ne timo misengini e kuonde motingʼore nikech od lemo ne pok oger ni nying Jehova Nyasaye.
3 USolomoni wayithanda-ke iNkosi, ehamba ezimisweni zikaDavida uyise; kube kanti wanikela umhlatshelo watshisa impepha endaweni eziphakemeyo.
Solomon nonyiso herane ni Jehova Nyasaye kowuotho moluwore gi yore mag Daudi wuon-gi makmana ni notimo misengini kendo nowangʼo ubani kuonde motingʼore.
4 Inkosi yasisiya eGibeyoni ukuhlaba khona, ngoba leyo yayiyindawo ephakemeyo enkulu. Iminikelo yokutshiswa eyinkulungwane uSolomoni wayinikela phezu kwalelolathi.
Ruoth nodhi Gibeon mondo ochiw misengini nimar kanyo e kama notingʼore malo moloyo ahinya kendo Solomon nochiwo misengini miwangʼo pep alufu achiel e kendo mar misangono.
5 EGibeyoni iNkosi yabonakala kuSolomoni ephutsheni ebusuku. UNkulunkulu wathi: Cela engingakunika khona.
E Gibeon kanyo ema Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyore ni Solomon gotieno e lek kendo Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kwa gimoro amora midwaro ni mondo amiyi.”
6 USolomoni wasesithi: Wena wenzele inceku yakho uDavida ubaba umusa omkhulu, njengokuhamba kwakhe phambi kwakho eqinisweni lekulungeni lebuqothweni benhliziyo kuwe; wamgcinela lo umusa omkhulu ukuthi wamnika indodana ehlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi njengalamuhla.
Solomon nodwoko niya, “Isenyiso ngʼwono maduongʼ ni jatichni Daudi wuonwa nikech ne en ja-adiera kuomi kendo ne en ngʼama kare ma chunye odimbore. Bende pod inyise ngʼwono maduongʼno nyaka chil kawuono kendo isemiye wuowi mondo obedi e kome kawuononi.
7 Ngakho-ke, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, wena wenzile inceku yakho yaba yinkosi esikhundleni sikaDavida ubaba; ngingumntwanyana nje, angikwazi ukuphuma lokungena.
“Koro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasacha, iseketo jatichni ruoth kar wuonwa Daudi. To an mana rawera kendo ok angʼeyo kaka onego atim tichna.
8 Lenceku yakho iphakathi kwabantu bakho obakhethileyo, abantu abanengi, abangelakubalwa labangelakunaniswa ngobunengi.
Jatichni nitie ka e kind oganda miseyiero, oganda maduongʼ kendo mathoth mokalo akwana.
9 Ngakho nika inceku yakho inhliziyo eqedisisayo ukwahlulela abantu bakho, ukuze ngehlukanise phakathi kokuhle lokubi; ngoba ngubani olamandla ukwahlulela lesisizwe sakho esikhulu?
Omiyo mi jatichni chuny mariek mondo otel ne jogi kendo mar pogo ber gi rach. Nimar en ngʼa manyalo telo ni oganda maduongʼ machalo kama?”
10 Laloludaba lwaba luhle emehlweni eNkosi ukuthi uSolomoni ucele lolulutho.
Jehova Nyasaye ne mor ni Solomon nokwayo mano.
11 UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuye: Ngenxa yokuthi ucele lolulutho, ungazicelelanga insuku ezinengi, ungazicelelanga inotho, ungacelanga umphefumulo wezitha zakho, kodwa uzicelele ukuqedisisa ukuzwa ukwahlulela,
Omiyo Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Nikech isekwayo mana ma to ok ikwayo ngima mathoth kata mwandu ni in iwuon, bende ok isekwayo tho mar wasiki to isekwayo mana rieko kuom ngʼado bura kare,
12 khangela, sengenze njengamazwi akho. Khangela, ngikunike inhliziyo ehlakaniphileyo leqedisisayo, ukuthi kungabi khona onjengawe ngaphambi kwakho, lemva kwakho kungaveli onjengawe.
Abiro timo gima isekwayo. Abiro miyi chuny mar rieko kod mar ngʼeyo mondo kik bedie ngʼama chalo kodi kendo nyaka chiengʼ.
13 Futhi longakucelanga ngikunikile, ngitsho inotho lodumo, ukuze kungabi khona umuntu onjengawe emakhosini zonke izinsuku zakho.
Moloyo mano abiro miyi nyaka mago ma ok ikwayo kaka mwandu kod duongʼ mondo e kinde mag ngimani ok inibed gi ngʼat maromo kodi e kind ruodhi.
14 Njalo uba uzahamba endleleni zami, ukugcina izimiso zami lemilayo yami njengoDavida uyihlo wahamba, ngizakwelula insuku zakho.
To kiwuotho e yorena kendo rito buchena kod chikena kaka Daudi wuonu notimo bende anamiyi idak amingʼa.”
15 USolomoni wasephaphama; khangela-ke kwakuliphupho. Wasesiza eJerusalema, wema phambi komtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi, wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa, wanikela iminikelo yokuthula, wenzela inceku zakhe zonke idili.
Bangʼe Solomon nochiewo moyudo ni ne en mana lek. Nodok Jerusalem mochungʼ e nyim Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo nochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mag lalruok. Eka notimo nyasi ni joge duto manie dala mar ruoth.
16 Ngalesosikhathi kwafika abesifazana ababili, amawule, enkosini, bema phambi kwayo.
Chiengʼ moro mon ariyo ma jochode nobiro ir ruoth mochungʼ e nyime.
17 Omunye owesifazana wasesithi: Hawu nkosi yami, mina lalumfazi sihlala ndlunye; ngasengibeletha ngilaye endlini.
Achiel kuomgi nowacho niya, “Ruodha, dhakoni gi an wadak e ot chiel. Ne ayudo nyathi kane en koda e ot.
18 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu ngibelethile, laye lumfazi wabeletha; njalo sasindawonye, kungekho owemzini kanye lathi endlini, ngaphandle kwethu sobabili endlini.
Chiengʼ mar adek kasenywolo nyathina, dhakoni bende noyudo nyathi. To ne onge ngʼato moro amora e ot makmana wan kendwa.
19 Umntwana walumfazi wasesifa ebusuku, ngoba walala phezu kwakhe.
“Gotieno wuod dhakoni notho nikech nonindo kuome.
20 Wasevuka phakathi kobusuku, wathatha indodana yami eceleni kwami, incekukazi yakho isalele, wayilalisa esifubeni sakhe, lomntanakhe ofileyo wamlalisa esifubeni sami.
Omiyo nochungʼ malo chuny otieno kendo okaw wuoda e batha ka jatichni ne nindo. Nokete e kore to okawo wuode mothono oketo e kora.
21 Lapho ngivuka ekuseni ukumunyisa umntanami, khangela-ke wayesefile; sengimkhangelisisa ekuseni, khangela-ke, kwakungeyisuye umntanami engamzalayo.
Kinyne gokinyi nachungʼ mondo adhodh wuoda to nayudo kotho! To kane anone gi ler mar okinyi ne aneno ni ok en wuowi mane anywolo.”
22 Kodwa lowo omunye owesifazana wathi: Hatshi, kodwa indodana yami ngephilayo, lendodana yakho ngefileyo. Lalowo wathi: Hatshi, kodwa indodana yakho ngefileyo, lendodana yami ngephilayo. Batsho njalo phambi kwenkosi.
Dhako machielono nokwer kawacho niya, “Ooyo! Mangimani e wuoda; to mothono e mari.” To dhako mokwongono notwoyo dhoge kawacho niya, “Ooyo! Wuowi mothono e mari; to mangimano to mara.” Omiyo ne gimino wach e nyim ruoth.
23 Inkosi yasisithi: Lo uthi: Le yindodana yami ephilayo, lendodana yakho ngefileyo; lomunye uthi: Hatshi, kodwa indodana yakho ngefileyo, lendodana yami ngephilayo.
Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Iwacho ni, ‘Wuoda ngima kendo mari otho,’ kendo machielo wacho ni, ‘Ooyo, wuodi otho to mara ngima.’”
24 Inkosi yasisithi: Ngithathelani inkemba. Basebeyiletha inkemba phambi kwenkosi.
Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Kelna ligangla.” Omiyo negikelone ruoth ligangla.
25 Inkosi yasisithi: Dabulani kabili umntwana ophilayo, linike omunye ingxenye, lomunye ingxenye.
Bangʼe nochiwo chik kowacho niya, “Ngʼaduru nyathi mangimano e diere ariyo eka umi ngʼato ka ngʼato nus.”
26 Owesifazana okwakungowakhe umntwana ophilayo wakhuluma enkosini, ngoba imibilini yakhe yavutha ngendodana yakhe, wathi: Hawu nkosi yami, mnikeni yena umntwana ophilayo, lingambulali loba kunjani. Kodwa omunye wathi: Kangabi ngowami kumbe ngowakho, dabulani.
Eka dhako mane wuode ngima nokecho wuode mowacho ni ruoth niya, “Kiyie ruodha, miye nyathino mangimano! Kik inege!” To dhako machielo nowacho niya, “An kata in ok noyud nyathino. Ngʼade nyadiriyo!”
27 Inkosi yasiphendula yathi: Nikani yena umntwana ophilayo, lingambulali loba kunjani; nguye unina.
Eka ruoth nongʼado bura kama, “Miuru dhako mokwongono nyathi mangima, kik unege nimar en e min-gi.”
28 UIsrayeli wonke wasesizwa isahlulelo inkosi eyayisahlulele, besaba phambi kwenkosi, ngoba babona ukuthi inhlakanipho kaNkulunkulu yayikuye ukwenza isahlulelo.
Kane jo-Israel owinjo bura mane ruoth ongʼado, negimiyo ruoth duongʼ nikech negineno ne en-gi rieko moa kuom Nyasaye.
