1 Amakhosi 8
1 Khona uSolomoni wabuthanisa abadala bakoIsrayeli, zonke inhloko zezizwe, iziphathamandla zaboyise babantwana bakoIsrayeli, ukuya enkosini uSolomoni eJerusalema, ukuze benyuse umtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaJehova bewukhupha emzini kaDavida, oyiZiyoni.
Azɔ la, Fia Solomo ƒo Israelviwo ƒe kplɔlawo, towo kple hlɔ̃wo ƒe tatɔwo katã nu ƒu ɖe Yerusalem be, woakpɔ ale si woatsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la tso agbadɔ la me le Zion, David ƒe du la me, ayi gbedoxɔ la me la teƒe.
2 Wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli asebuthana enkosini uSolomoni emkhosini enyangeni kaEthanimi eyinyanga yesikhombisa.
Tete Israel ŋutsuwo katã kpe ta ɖe Fia Solomo gbɔ le Agbadɔmeŋkekenyui la ɖuɣi le ɣleti adrelia me.
3 Labo bonke abadala bakoIsrayeli beza, abapristi bawuphakamisa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano,
Esi Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiawo katã va ɖo la, nunɔlawo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la.
4 bawenyusa umtshokotsho weNkosi lethente lenhlangano, lazo zonke izitsha ezingcwele ezazisethenteni; abapristi lamaLevi bakwenyusa-ke.
Wotsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la kple takpeƒe ƒe agbadɔ la kple nu kɔkɔe siwo katã le eme. Nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwoe tsɔ wo.
5 Njalo inkosi uSolomoni lenhlangano yonke yakoIsrayeli eyayibuthene babelayo phambi komtshokotsho behlaba izimvu lezinkabi ezingelanani lezingelakubalwa ngobunengi.
Fia Solomo kple Israelviwo katã ƒo ƒu ɖe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ eye wotsɔ alẽ kple nyitsu geɖe siwo womate ŋu axlẽ o la sa vɔe.
6 Abapristi basebewungenisa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi endaweni yawo endaweni yelizwi yendlu, engcweleni yezingcwele, ngaphansi kwempiko zamakherubhi.
Le esia megbe la, nunɔlawo tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va da ɖe enɔƒe le gbedoxɔ la ƒe kɔkɔe ƒe emetɔ si nye Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me eye wokɔe da ɖe kerubiawo ƒe aʋalawo te.
7 Ngoba amakherubhi elulela impiko zawo phezu kwendawo yomtshokotsho, amakherubhi embesa umtshokotsho lemijabo yawo, kuvela phezulu.
Wowɔ kerubiawo ale be woƒe aʋalawo tsyɔ teƒe si woada nubablaɖaka la ɖo la dzi. Ale woƒe aʋalawo tsyɔ nubablaɖaka la kple kpo siwo wowɔ ɖe wo ŋu la dzi.
8 Basebeselula imijabo ukuze izihloko zemijabo zibonakale endaweni engcwele phambi kwendawo yelizwi, kodwa yayingabonakali ngaphandle; njalo ikhona lapho kuze kube lamuhla.
Kpoawo didi ale gbegbe be woƒe nugbɔwo didi gbɔ aɖaka la ŋu, woate ŋu akpɔ wo tso xɔ emetɔ, Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me, gake womate ŋu akpɔ wo le Kɔkɔeƒe la godo o. Wogale afi ma va se ɖe egbe.
9 Kwakungelalutho emtshokotshweni, ngaphandle kwezibhebhe zamatshe ezimbili uMozisi azifaka khona eHorebe mhla iNkosi isenza khona isivumelwano labantwana bakoIsrayeli ekuphumeni kwabo elizweni leGibhithe.
Naneke menɔ nubablaɖaka la me ɣe ma ɣi o, negbe kpe kpakpa eve siwo Mose tsɔ de wo me le Horeb to la dzi esime Yehowa bla nu kple Israelviwo le woƒe dzodzo le Egipte megbe la ko.
10 Kwasekusithi ekuphumeni kwabapristi endaweni engcwele iyezi layigcwalisa indlu yeNkosi;
Kpɔ ɖa! Esi nunɔlaawo trɔ tso Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la gbɔna ko la, lilikpo keklẽ aɖe yɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me taŋtaŋ!
11 ngakho abapristi babengelakho ukuma ukuthi bakhonze ngenxa yeyezi, ngoba inkazimulo yeNkosi yayigcwalise indlu yeNkosi.
Nunɔlaawo magate ŋu awɔ woƒe dɔ o, le lilikpo la ta elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.
12 Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wathi: INkosi yathi izahlala emnyameni onzima.
Fia Solomo gblɔ be “Yehowa gblɔ be yeanɔ lilikpo doviviti aɖe me.
13 Ngikwakhele lokukwakhela indlu, indawo yokuhlala, indawo emisiweyo yokuhlala kwakho laphakade.
Metu gbedoxɔ nyui aɖe na wò, si me nànɔ tegbee.”
14 Inkosi yasitshibilikisa ubuso bayo, yalibusisa ibandla lonke lakoIsrayeli; lebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli lalimi.
Tete Fia la trɔ ɖe ameha la gbɔ, ameawo tsi tsitre ɖe eŋkume be yewoaxɔ eƒe yayra eye wòyra wo.
15 Yasisithi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyakhuluma ngomlomo wayo kuDavida ubaba, njalo yagcwalisa ngesandla sayo, isithi:
Egblɔ bena, “Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si tsɔ eƒe asi wɔ ŋugbe si wòdo kple eƒe nu na fofonye, David dzi egbe
16 Kusukela ngosuku engakhupha ngalo abantu bami uIsrayeli elizweni leGibhithe kangikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli ukwakha indlu, ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, kodwa ngakhetha uDavida ukuthi abe phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
elabena Yehowa gblɔ na Fia David be, ‘Tso gbe si gbe mekplɔ nye dukɔ Israel tso Egipte la, nyemetia du aɖeke le Israel toawo katã me be woatu gbedoxɔ nam ɖe afi ma be nye ŋkɔ nanɔ eme o. Ke metia David be wòanɔ nye dukɔ Israel nu.’
17 Njalo kwakusenhliziyweni kaDavida ubaba ukwakhela ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli indlu.
“Ame siae nye fofonye, Fia David. Edi be yeatu gbedoxɔ aɖe na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu ƒe ŋkɔ.
18 Kodwa iNkosi yathi kuDavida ubaba: Njengoba kwakusenhliziyweni yakho ukwakhela ibizo lami indlu, wenze kuhle ukuthi kwakusenhliziyweni yakho;
Ke Yehowa gblɔ na fofonye, David be, ‘Esi nèɖoe ɖe wò dzi me be yeatu gbedoxɔ na nye ŋkɔ la, èwɔe nyuie be nèɖoe ɖe wò dzi me.
19 loba kunjalo kawuyikuyakha indlu wena, kodwa indodana yakho ezaphuma ekhalweni lwakho, yona izalakhela ibizo lami indlu.
Ke, menye wòe nye ame si atu gbedoxɔ la o, ke viwò, ame si nye wò ŋutɔ wò ŋutilã kple ʋu; eyae nye ame si atu gbedoxɔ la na nye ŋkɔ.’
20 INkosi isiqinisile ilizwi layo eyalikhulumayo, ngoba ngivukile esikhundleni sikaDavida ubaba, ngihlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli njengokuba iNkosi ikhulumile, sengilakhele ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli indlu.
“Azɔ la, Yehowa wɔ nu si ŋugbe wòdo elabena mezu Israel fia ɖe fofonye David yome eye azɔ la, metu gbedoxɔ sia na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ.
21 Njalo ngimisile lapho indawo yomtshokotsho, lapho okulesivumelwano seNkosi khona, eyasenza labobaba ekubakhupheni kwayo elizweni leGibhithe.
Mewɔ teƒe aɖe ɖe gbedoxɔ la me na nubablaɖaka la si me nubabla si Yehowa wɔ kple mía fofowo esime wòkplɔ wo tso Egiptenyigba dzi la le.”
22 USolomoni wasesima phambi kwelathi leNkosi maqondana lebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welulela izandla zakhe emazulwini,
Azɔ Solomo tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la ŋkume, eye wòke eƒe abɔwo me do ɖe dziƒo
23 wathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kakho unkulunkulu onjengawe emazulwini phezulu lemhlabeni phansi ogcina isivumelwano lomusa ezincekwini zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngenhliziyo yazo yonke.
eye wògblɔ be, “Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, Mawu aɖeke meɖi wò, le dziƒo afi ma alo anyigba dzi afi sia o, wò ame si léa wò lɔlɔ̃ ƒe nubabla me ɖe asi kple wò subɔla siwo zɔna ɖe wò mɔwo nu kple dzi blibo.
24 Ogcinele inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuye; njalo wakhuluma ngomlomo wakho, wakugcwalisa ngesandla sakho, njengalamuhla.
Egbe la, èwɔ ŋugbe si nèdo na fofonye David, ame si nye wò subɔla la dzi. Ètsɔ wò nu do ŋugbee eye nètsɔ wò asi wɔ edzi abe ale si wòle egbe ene.
25 Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba owakukhuluma kuye, usithi: Kakuyikusweleka muntu kuwe phambi kwami ozahlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli, kuphela uba amadodana akho egcina indlela yawo ukuhamba phambi kwami njengoba uhambile phambi kwami.
“Azɔ la, Oo Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbe bubu si nèdo nɛ la hã dzi. Èdo ŋugbe be, ne fofonye ƒe dzidzimeviwo alé wò mɔwo me ɖe asi eye woawɔ wò lɔlɔ̃nu abe ale si eya wɔ ene la, ekema wo dometɔ ɖeka anɔ Israel ƒe fiazikpui dzi ɣe sia ɣi.
26 Khathesi-ke, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ake liqiniseke ilizwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho uDavida ubaba.
Ke azɔ la, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbedodo si nèwɔ na wò dɔla David, fofonye la hã dzi.
27 Kodwa isibili uNkulunkulu uzahlala yini emhlabeni? Khangela, amazulu, lamazulu amazulu angekwanele; incinyane kangakanani-ke lindlu engiyakhileyo?
“Ke, ɖe Mawu ate ŋu anɔ anyigba dzia? Dziƒowo kple dziƒo kɔkɔtɔwo kekeake hã melolo na wò, hafi gbedoxɔ sia nasu na wò o!
28 Kube kanti phendukela emkhulekweni wenceku yakho lekuncengeni kwayo, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, ukuze uzwe ukukhala lomkhuleko inceku yakho ewukhulekayo phambi kwakho lamuhla.

29 Ukuthi amehlo akho avulekele lindlu ebusuku lemini, indawo owatsho ngayo ukuthi: Ibizo lami lizakuba lapho; ukuze uzwe umkhuleko wenceku yakho ezawukhuleka kulindawo.

“Ne wotsɔ nya ɖe ame aɖe ŋu be ewɔ nu vɔ̃ aɖe eye wòtsi tsitre ɖe afi sia, le wò vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ heka atam be yemewɔ nu vɔ̃ la o la,
32 zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, wenze wahlulele inceku zakho, ulahle omubi, ukunikela indlela yakhe ekhanda lakhe, ukulungisisa olungileyo, ukumnika njengokulunga kwakhe.

33 Lapho abantu bakho uIsrayeli betshaywe phambi kwesitha ngoba bonile kuwe, babesebephendukela kuwe, balivume ibizo lakho, bakhuleke bancenge kuwe kulindlu,
“Ne futɔwo ɖu wò dukɔ, Israel dzi elabena wowɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe ŋutiwò, ne wotrɔ va gbɔwò eye woʋu wò ŋkɔ me, ne wodo gbe ɖa na wò le gbedoxɔ sia me la,

54 Kwasekusithi eseqedile uSolomoni ukukhuleka wonke lo umkhuleko lokuncenga eNkosini, wasukuma esuka ngaphambi kwelathi leNkosi ekuguqeni ngamadolo akhe lezandla zakhe zelulekele emazulwini,

62 Inkosi loIsrayeli wonke elayo basebehlaba umhlatshelo phambi kukaJehova.

63 USolomoni wasehlaba umhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula awuhlabela uJehova, inkabi ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili, lezimvu ezizinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili. Ngokunjalo inkosi labo bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli bayehlukanisa indlu kaJehova.
