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 ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, to 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 upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in my heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and 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 to me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been 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.

However the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of 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 to me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his 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 establish his kingdom for ever, if he shall be constant to do my commandments and my judgments, 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 audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for 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 perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou shalt seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou shalt 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 an 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, and of the houses of it, and of its treasuries, and of its upper chambers, and of its inner parlours and of the place of the mercy seat,

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, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the surrounding chambers, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated 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:

He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments 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,

Even the weight for the lampstands of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every lampstand, and for its lamps: and for the lampstands of silver by weight, both for the lampstand, and also for its lamps, according to the use of every lampstand.

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

And by weight he gave gold for the tables of showbread, for every table; and likewise 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 pure gold for the fleshhooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basins he gave gold by weight for every basin; and likewise silver by weight for every basin of silver:

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 of 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, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing 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, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast 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 courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at thy command.
