1 Seenaa 28

1 Daawit akka isaan Yerusaalemitti walitti qabamaniif hangafoota Israaʼel hunda ni waame; isaanis: Geggeessitoota gosootaa, tajaajila mootummaa keessatti ajajjoota kutaawwan loltootaa, ajajjoota kumaatii fi ajajjoota dhibbaa, warra qabeenyaa fi horii mootichaatii fi kan ilmaan isaa irratti itti gaafatamtoota taʼan, qondaaltota masaraa mootummaa, namoota jajjaboo fi gootota waraanaa hunda.

And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that served the king by course, and the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, and the rulers over all the substance and cattle of the king and of his sons, with the officers, and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valour, unto Jerusalem.

2 Ergasii Daawit Mootichi kaʼee dhaabatee akkana jedhe: “Yaa obboloota koo fi yaa saba ko, mee na dhagaʼaa. Ani taabota kakuu Waaqayyootiif iddoo inni boqotu, Waaqa keenyaaf immoo iddoo inni miilla dhaabatu ijaaruu yaadee qophaaʼeera.

Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said: 'Hear me, my brethren, and my people; as for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God; and I had made ready for the building.

3 Waaqni garuu, ‘Ati sababii lola hedduu loltee dhiiga baayʼee dhangalaafteef maqaa kootiif mana hin ijaartu’ naan jedhe.

But God said unto me: Thou shalt not build a house for My name, because thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.

4 “Taʼus Waaqayyo, Waaqni Israaʼel akka ani bara baraan Israaʼel irratti mootii taʼuuf mana abbaa koo keessaa na filate. Akka inni dura buʼaa taʼuufis Yihuudaa filate; mana Yihuudaa keessaa maatii koo filate; ilmaan abbaa kootii keessaa immoo akka ani guutummaa Israaʼel irratti mootii taʼu jaallate.

Howbeit the LORD, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; for He hath chosen Judah to be prince, and in the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father He took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel;

5 Waaqayyo ilmaan baayʼee naa kenneera; ilmaan koo hunda keessaa immoo akka inni teessoo mootummaa Waaqayyoo irra taaʼee saba Israaʼel bulchuuf ilma koo Solomoonin filate.

and of all my sons — for the LORD hath given me many sons — He hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

6 Akkanas naan jedhe; ‘Kan mana koo fi oobdiiwwan koo naaf ijaaru ilma kee Solomoonii dha; ani akka inni ilma naa taʼuuf isa filadheeraatii; anis abbaa isaa nan taʼa.

And He said unto me: Solomon thy son, he shall build My house and My courts; for I have chosen him to be to Me for a son, and I will be to him for a father.

7 Yoo inni akkuma ammaa kanatti ittuma fufee ajaja koo fi seera koo eege ani bara baraan mootummaa isaa jabeessee nan dhaaba.’

And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be constant to do My commandments and Mine ordinances, as at this day.

8 “Kanaafuu akka isin lafa gaarii kana dhaaltanii ilmaan keessaniif dhaala bara baraa dabarsitaniif, akka isin ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii hunda eegdanii fi isa duukaa buutaniif ani amma fuula Israaʼeloota hundaa duratti, waldaa Waaqayyoo duratti, akkasumas utuu Waaqni keenya dhagaʼuu isinin ajaja.

Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the congregation of the LORD, and in the hearing of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God; that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you for ever.

9 “Yaa ilma koo Solomoon atis Waaqayyo Waaqa abbaa keetii beekii garaa tokkoo fi qalbii fedhii qabuun isa tajaajili; Waaqayyo waan garaa namaa keessa jiru hunda qoree karooraa fi yaada hunda hubataatii. Yoo ati isa barbaadde inni siif argama; yoo ati isa dhiifte garuu inni bara baraan si dhiisa.

And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve Him with a whole heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts; if thou seek Him, He will be found of thee; but if thou forsake Him, He will cast thee off for ever.

10 Amma qalbeeffadhu; Waaqayyo akka ati mana iddoo qulqulluu taʼu tokko ijaartuuf si filateeraatii. Jajjabaadhuu hojjedhu.”

Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build a house for the sanctuary; be strong, and do it.'

11 Ergasii Daawit karoora gardaafoo mana qulqullummaa, kan ijaarsa isaa, kutaawwan miʼi keessa kaaʼamu, kan kutaawwan ol aananiitii fi kutaawwan keessaa, akkasumas karoora iddoo teessoo araaraa ilma isaa Solomoonitti kenne.

Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch of the temple, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper rooms thereof, and of the inner chambers thereof, and of the place of the ark-cover;

12 Akkasumas karoora waan Hafuurri qulqulluun isa yaachisee kan oobdii mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo, kan kutaawwan naannoo isaa jiranii, kutaawwan mana miʼa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaatii fi kan mankuusaa miʼoota Waaqaatiif addaan baafamanii hunda itti kenne.

and the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, for the courts of the house of the LORD, and for all the chambers round about, for the treasuries of the house of God, and for the treasuries of the hallowed things;

13 Karoora ramaddii hojii lubootaatii fi Lewwotaa, tajaajila mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti kennamuu maluu hunda, miʼoota mana qulqullummaa keessatti tajaajilaaf oolan irrattis qajeelfama ni kenneef.

also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD:

14 Ulfina warqee miʼoota warqee irraa hojjetamanii tajaajila garaa garaatiif oolan hundaatii fi ulfina meetii miʼoota meetii irraa hojjetamanii tajaajila garaa garaatiif oolan hundaas isa beeksise:

of gold by weight for the vessels of gold, for all vessels of every kind of service; of silver for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service;

15 Kunis ulfina baattuuwwan ibsaa kanneen warqee irraa hojjetamaniitii fi ibsaawwan isaanii, ulfina warqee tokkoo tokkoo baattuu ibsaatii fi ibsaa isaanii wajjin, akkasumas akkuma hojii tokkoo tokkoo baattuu ibsaa sanaatti ulfina meetii tokkoo tokkoo baattuu ibsaatii fi ibsaawwan isaa,

by weight also for the candlesticks of gold, and for the lamps thereof, of gold, by weight for every candlestick and for the lamps thereof; and for the candlesticks of silver, silver by weight for every candlestick and for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick;

16 ulfina warqee tokkoo tokkoo minjaala buddeenni qulqulluun irra kaaʼamuu, ulfina meetii minjaalli irraa hojjetame,

and the gold by weight for the tables of showbread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;

17 ulfina warqee qulqulluu falʼaana, waciitii fi kubbaayyaa, ulfina warqee tokkoo tokkoo caabii warqee irraa hojjetame; ulfina meetii tokkoo tokkoo caabii meetii irraa hojjetame;

and the flesh-hooks, and the basins, and the jars, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;

18 akkasumas ulfina warqee qulqulleeffame kan iddoo aarsaa ixaanaatiif qopheeffame. Karoora gaarii jechuunis kiirubeelii warqee irraa hojjetaman kanneen qoochoo isaanii babalʼisanii taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo haguugan itti kenne.

and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot, even the cherubim, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

19 Daawitis, “Ani waan kana hunda harka Waaqayyoo kan narra jiru sanaan barreeffamaan argadhe; innis karoora hojii kanaa hunda irratti hubannaa naaf kenne” jedhe.

'All this do I give thee in writing, as the LORD hath made me wise by His hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.'

20 Daawit ilma isaa Solomooniin akkana jedhe; “Cimi; jajjabaadhus; hojii sanas hojjedhu. Hin sodaatin; abdiis hin kutatin; Waaqayyo Gooftaan Waaqni koo si wajjin jiraatii. Inni hamma hojiin tajaajila mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo dhumutti si hin dhiisu yookaan si hin gatu.

And David said to Solomon his son: 'Be strong and of good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed; for the LORD God, even my God, is with thee; He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until all the work for the service of the house of the LORD be finished.

21 Gareen lubootaatii fi Lewwotaa ijaarsa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaatiif qophaaʼoo dha. Namni fedhii qabu kan ogummaa hojii gosa kamii iyyuu qabu hundii hojii hunda si gargaara. Qondaaltonnii fi namoonni hundii ajaja kee hunda ni fudhatu.”

And, behold, there are the courses of the priests and the Levites, for all the service of the house of God; and there shall be with thee in all manner of work every willing man that hath skill, for any manner of service; also the captains and all the people will be wholly at thy commandment.'
