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 divisions that ministered to the king, and the captains of the thousands, and the captains of the hundreds, and the rulers of all the property and the cattle of the king and of his sons, with the court-servants, and the mighty men, and with all the valiant men of the army, 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 arose king David upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people! I had 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 preparations to build;

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 unto my name; because thou art a man of war, and blood hast thou shed.

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.

Yet the Lord the God of Israel made choice of me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; for of Judah had he made choice as ruler, and among the house of Judah, of the house of my father; and among the sons of my father had he 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, — hath he made choice of 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 hath said unto me, Solomon thy son it is that shall build my house and my courts; for I have made choice of him to be as a son unto me, and I will be indeed to him as a father.

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

Moreover, I will firmly establish his kingdom for everlasting, if he be strong to execute my commandments and my ordinances as it is 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.

And now before the eyes of all Israel, the congregation of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God, [I admonish you] observe and seek for all the commandments of the Lord your God: in order that ye may keep possession of this good land, and leave it for an inheritance unto your children after you forever.

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 an entire heart and with a willing soul; for all hearts doth the Lord search, and every imagination of the thoughts doth he understand; if thou seek him, he will let himself be found by 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.”

See now that the Lord hath made choice of 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 gave David to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of its apartments, and of its treasuries, and of upper chambers, and of its inner chambers, and of the place of the cover of the ark.

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 in his spirit, concerning the courts of the house of the Lord, and concerning all the chambers round about, concerning the treasuries of the house of God, and concerning the treasuries of the holy 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 concerning the divisions of the priests and the Levites, and concerning all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and concerning all the vessels of service of 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:

Concerning the golden vessels, after the weight of the gold, for all the vessels of all manner of service; concerning all the vessels of silver after the weight, for all the 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,

Also the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, after the weight for every candlestick, and for its lamps; and concerning the candlesticks of silver after the weight, for the candlestick, and for its lamps, 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 after the weight for the tables of the rows of shewbread, for every table; and the 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;

Also [concerning] the forks, and the bowls, and the supporters of pure gold; and concerning the golden cups after the weight for every cup; and concerning the silver cups after the weight for every cup;

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 concerning the altar of incense the refined gold after the weight; and concerning the pattern of the chariot of the golden cherubim, which spread out [their wings], and over 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, said David, ] was put in writing from the hand of the Lord, who gave me instruction [respecting] all the works of the 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 [the work]; fear not, and be not dismayed; for the Lord God, [yea, ] my God is with thee: he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou have finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.

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, the divisions of the priests and the Levites are there for all the service of the house of God; and with thee are in all manner of workmanship all kinds of men distinguished in wisdom, for every manner of service; and the princes and all the people are ready [to obey] all thy words.
