< 2 Imilando 6 >
1 Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wathi: UJehova wathi uzahlala emnyameni onzima.
Tete Solomo gblɔ be, “Yehowa gblɔ be yeanɔ lilikpo do viviti aɖe me;
2 Kodwa mina ngikwakhele indlu yokuhlala, lendawo yokuhlala kwakho kuze kube nini lanini.
metu gbedoxɔ gã nyui aɖe na wò, afi si nànɔ tegbee.”
3 Inkosi yasiphendula ubuso bayo, yabusisa ibandla lonke lakoIsrayeli; ibandla lonke-ke lakoIsrayeli lalimi.
Tete Fia Solomo trɔ ɖe Israel ƒe ameha la gbɔ, ameawo tsi tsitre be yewoaxɔ eƒe yayra eye wòyra wo hegblɔ na wo bena,
4 Yasisithi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyakhuluma ngomlomo wayo kuDavida ubaba yakugcwalisa ngezandla zayo, isithi:
“Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, si tsɔ eƒe nu gblɔ nya na fofonye David eye wòwɔ ŋugbe si wòdo nɛ la dzi azɔ. Mawu gblɔ na David bena,
5 Kusukela ngosuku engakhupha ngalo abantu bami elizweni leGibhithe kangikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli ukwakha indlu, ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, kangikhethanga muntu ukuba ngumkhokheli phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
‘Tso gbe si gbe mekplɔ nye amewo tso Egipte la, nyemetia du aɖeke le Israel ƒe toawo dometɔ aɖeke me be, woatu gbedoxɔ ne nye ŋkɔ nanɔ afi ma o eye nyemetia ame aɖeke be wòanye kplɔla na nye dukɔ, Israel o.
6 Kodwa ngakhetha iJerusalema ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, ngakhetha uDavida ukuthi abe phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
Ke azɔ la, metia Yerusalem, be nye ŋkɔ nanɔ afi ma eye azɔ la metia David be wòanɔ nye dukɔ, Israel nu.’”
7 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.
8 Kodwa iNkosi yathi kuDavida ubaba: Njengoba kwakusenhliziyweni yakho ukwakhela ibizo lami indlu, wenze kuhle ngokuthi 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.
9 Lanxa kunjalo kawuyikuyakha indlu wena, kodwa indodana yakho ezaphuma ekhalweni lwakho, yiyo ezakwakhela 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.’
10 INkosi isiqinisile ilizwi layo eyalikhulumayo, ngoba ngivelile esikhundleni sikaDavida ubaba, ngihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli, njengokukhuluma kweNkosi; sengilakhele ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, indlu.
“Azɔ la, Yehowa wɔ nu si ŋugbe wòdo elabena mezu fia ɖe fofonye teƒe eye metu gbedoxɔ la na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ.
11 Ngiwubeke khona umtshokotsho lapho okulesivumelwano seNkosi khona eyasenza labantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Metsɔ nubablaɖaka la da ɖe eme eye Nubabla si le Yehowa kple eƒe amewo, Israelviwo dome la, le nubablaɖaka la me.”
12 Wasesima phambi kwelathi leNkosi maqondana lebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welula izandla zakhe.
Tete Solomo tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la ŋkume eye wòke eƒe abɔwo me do ɖe dziƒo.
13 Ngoba uSolomoni wayenze isitubhu sethusi, ubude baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lobubanzi baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lokuphakama kwaso kuzingalo ezintathu, wasimisa phakathi laphakathi kweguma. Wema phezu kwaso, waguqa ngamadolo akhe phambi kwebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welulela izandla zakhe emazulwini,
Azɔ la ewɔ teƒe kɔkɔ aɖe kple akɔbli; edidi mita eve kple afã, keke mita eve kple afã eye wòkɔ mita ɖeka kple afã. Etsɔe da ɖe xɔxɔnu egodotɔ titina. Etsi tsitre ɖe kɔkɔƒe la dzi, dze klo le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la ŋkume eye wòke eƒe abɔwo me do ɖe dziƒo.
14 wathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kakho uNkulunkulu onjengawe emazulwini lemhlabeni, ogcina isivumelwano lomusa ezincekwini zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yazo,
Edo gbe ɖa bena, “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.
15 ogcinele inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo; ngoba wakhuluma ngomlomo wakho usukugcwalisile 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.
16 Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo usithi: Kakuyikusweleka umuntu kuwe phambi kobuso bami ozahlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli; kuphela uba abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo phambi kwami, ukuthi bahambe ngomlayo wami, njengalokho uhambile phambi kwami.
“Azɔ la, Oo Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbe bubu si nèdo nɛ be, ‘Wò dzidzimeviwo aɖu fia ɖe Israel dzi tegbetegbe ne woawɔ nye sewo dzi abe ale si nèwɔ ene,’ la dzi.
17 Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kaliqiniseke ilizwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho, kuDavida.
Ke azɔ la, Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, wɔ ŋugbedodo si nèwɔ na wò dɔla David la hã dzi.
18 Kambe ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu angahlala labantu emhlabeni? Khangela, amazulu, yebo, amazulu amazulu angekwanele; kangakanani-ke lindlu engiyakhileyo?
“Ke, ɖe Mawu anya nɔ anyigba dzi kple amewoa? Kpɔ ɖa, dziƒo kple dziƒowo ƒe dziƒo gɔ̃ hã melolo na wò o, ekema nu kae nye gbedoxɔ sia si metu?
19 Kodwa phendukela emkhulekweni wenceku yakho lekuncengeni kwayo, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, ukuzwa ukukhala lomkhuleko inceku yakho ekukhulekayo phambi kwakho.
Ke, ɖo to wò dɔla ƒe gbedodoɖa kple eƒe kokoƒoƒo na nublanuikpɔkpɔ, O Yehowa, nye Mawu. Se wò dɔla ƒe ɣlidodo kple gbe si wòle dodom ɖa na wò.
20 Ukuze amehlo akho avulekele lindlu emini lebusuku, endaweni owatsho ngayo ukuthi uzabeka ibizo lakho khona, ukuthi uwuzwe umkhuleko inceku yakho ewukhulekayo ikhangele kulindawo.

21 Ngakho zwana ukuncenga kwenceku yakho lokwabantu bakho uIsrayeli abazakukhuleka bekhangele kulindawo; yebo, uzwe wena, usendaweni yakho yokuhlala, usemazulwini; lapho usizwa, uthethelele.
Ɖo to wò subɔla kple Israelviwo ƒe kukuɖeɖe ne wodze ŋgɔ afi sia eye wodo gbe ɖa na wò. Ẽ, se woƒe gbedodoɖa le dziƒo si nye wò nɔƒe eye ne èsee la, ekema nàtsɔ nu vɔ̃wo ake.
22 Uba umuntu esona kumakhelwane wakhe, amethese isifungo ukumenza afunge, njalo isifungo size phambi kwelathi lakho kulindlu,
“Ne ame aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃ eye wobia tso esi be wòava aka atam le wò vɔsamlekpui sia ŋgɔ be yemewɔ nu vɔ̃ la o la,
23 zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, njalo yenza wahlulele inceku zakho, ngokuphindisela okhohlakeleyo, ngokunika indlela yakhe ekhanda lakhe, langokulungisisa olungileyo, ngokumnika njengokulunga kwakhe.

24 Lalapho abantu bakho uIsrayeli betshaywa phambi kwesitha, ngoba bonile kuwe, uba bephenduka, balivume ibizo lakho, bakhuleke bencenga phambi kwakho 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,

“Ne dɔ to alo dɔvɔ̃ va anyigba dzi, ne bli hlɔ̃ alo dze heteku, ne ʋetsuviwo alo ʋetrawo va anyigba la dzi alo ne futɔwo va ɖe to ɖe wo le woƒe duwo dometɔ aɖe me, dzɔgbevɔ̃e alo dɔléle ɖe sia ɖe si ava la,
29 lawuphi umkhuleko, lakuphi ukuncenga, okuzakwenziwa languwuphi umuntu, kumbe yibo bonke abantu bakho uIsrayeli, lapho besazi, ngulowo lalowo inhlupheko yakhe losizi lwakhe, eselulela izandla zakhe kulindlu;

32 Njalo mayelana lowezizweni ongesuye owabantu bakho uIsrayeli, kodwa evela elizweni elikhatshana ngenxa yebizo lakho elikhulu lesandla sakho esilamandla lengalo yakho eyeluliweyo; lapho besizakhuleka kulindlu,
“Amedzro, ame siwo metso wò dukɔ, Israel me o, ke wotso didiƒenyigba aɖe dzi le wò ŋkɔ gã, wò asi sesẽ kple wò abɔ si nèdo ɖe dzi ta, eye wodo gbe ɖa le gbedoxɔ sia gbɔ la,
