1 Zvino mambokadzi weShebha akati anzwa nezvomukurumbira waSoromoni noukama hwake nezita raJehovha, akauya kuzomuedza nemibvunzo yakaoma.
Mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba itamva za kutchuka kwa Solomoni ndi za ubale wake ndi Yehova, inabwera kudzamuyesa ndi mafunso okhwima.
2 Akasvika paJerusarema navanhu vakawanda, nengamera dzakanga dzakatakura zvinonhuhwira, goridhe rakawanda kwazvo, namatombo anokosha, akauya kuna Soromoni akataura naye pamusoro pezvose zvaiva mupfungwa dzake.
Inafika mu Yerusalemu ndi gulu lalikulu la ngamira zonyamula zokometsera zakudya, golide wambiri ndi miyala yokongola. Inafika kwa Solomoni ndipo inayankhula naye zonse zimene zinali mu mtima mwake.
3 Soromoni akapindura mibvunzo yake yose; hapana chakanga chakanyanya kuomera mambo kuti amutsanangurire.
Solomoni anayankha mafunso ake onse ndipo panalibe kanthu kalikonse kovuta komwe sanathe kufotokozera mfumu yayikaziyo.
4 Mambokadzi weShebha akati aona uchenjeri hwose hwaSoromoni nomuzinda waakanga avaka,
Mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba itaona nzeru zonse za Solomoni ndiponso nyumba yaufumu imene anamanga,
5 zvokudya zvaiva patafura yake, urongwa hwokugara kwamachinda ake, varanda vake vaimushandira nezvipfeko zvavo, vadiri vake, nezvipiriso zvinopiswa zvaaiita patemberi yaJehovha, akapererwa.
chakudya cha pa tebulo pake, moyo wa antchito ake ndi zovala zawo, atumiki opereka zakumwa, ndiponso nsembe zopsereza zimene ankapereka ku Nyumba ya Yehova, inathedwa nzeru.
6 Akati kuna mambo, “Zvose zvandakanzwa munyika mangu pamusoro pamabasa enyu nouchenjeri hwenyu zvaiva zvechokwadi.
Iyo inati kwa mfumu, “Mbiri imene ndinamva ndili ku dziko kwathu ya zomwe munachita komanso nzeru zanu ndi yoona.
7 Asi handina kutenda zvinhu izvi kusvikira ndauya ndikazviona nameso angu chaiwo. Zvechokwadi, zvandakaudzwa hazvisviki pahafu yezviripo; muuchenjeri nomuupfumi mapfuura zvose zvandakanzwa.
Koma sindinakhulupirire zinthu zimenezo mpaka nditafika ndi kuona ndi maso anga. Kunena zoona sanandiwuze ngakhale theka lomwe, pakuti nzeru ndi chuma zimene muli nazo zaposa zimene ndinamva.
8 Vanhu venyu vanofanira kuva vanofara sei! Machinda enyu anofara sei, ivo vanomira pamberi penyu nguva dzose nokunzwa uchenjeri hwenyu!
Ngodala anthu anu! Ngodala atumiki anu amene amayimirira pamaso panu nthawi zonse ndi kumamva nzeru zanu!
9 Jehovha Mwari wenyu ngaarumbidzwe, iye akafadzwa nemi akakuisai pachigaro choushe chaIsraeri. Jehovha akada Israeri nokusingaperi, nokuda kwaizvozvo akuitai mambo kuti muchengetedze kururamisira noutsvene.”
Atamandike Yehova Mulungu wanu amene wakondwera nanu nakukhazikani pa mpando waufumu wa Israeli. Chifukwa cha chikondi chake chamuyaya pa Israeli, wayika inu kuti mukhale mfumu kuti mulamulire moyenera ndi mwachilungamo.”
10 Akapa mambo matarenda zana namakumi maviri egoridhe, zvinonhuhwira kwazvo, namatombo anokosha. Hapana mumwe akazouya nezvinonhuhwira zvakawanda sezvakauyiwa nazvo namambokadzi weShebha kuna Mambo Soromoni.
Ndipo mfumu yayikaziyo inapatsa Solomoni golide wolemera makilogalamu 4,000, zokometsera zakudya zambirimbiri, ndiponso miyala yokongola. Sikunabwerenso zokometsera zakudya ngati zomwe mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba inapatsa Mfumu Solomoni.
11 Zvikepe zvaHiramu zvakauya negoridhe kubva kuOfiri; uyewo zvakauya nemiti yemiarumugi namatombo anokosha kubva ikoko.
(Ndiponso sitima zapamadzi za Hiramu zinabweretsa golide wochokera ku Ofiri. Ndipo kuchokera kumeneko kunabweranso mitengo yambiri ya alimugi ndi miyala yokongola.
12 Mambo akashandisa miarumugi iyi kuita mbiru dzetemberi yaJehovha, nedzomuzinda wamambo, uye kugadzira mbira nemitengeranwa zvaishandiswa navaimbi. Miti yemiarumugi yakawanda kudai haina kuzombouyiswa munyika zvakare kana kuonekwa zvakare kubvira musi iwoyo.
Mfumu inagwiritsa ntchito mitengo ya alimugi ngati yochirikizira Nyumba ya Yehova ndi nyumba yaufumu, ndipo anapangiranso azeze ndi apangwe a anthu oyimba. Mitengo yotere sinayitanitsidweponso kapena kuoneka mpaka lero lino).
13 Mambo Soromoni akapa mambokadzi weShebha zvaaida nezvaakakumbira, pamusoro pezvaakamupa zvaibva papfuma yake youmambo. Ipapo akabva asimuka navaranda vake akadzokera kunyika yake.
Mfumu Solomoni inapereka kwa mfumu yayikazi ya ku Seba zonse zimene inazifuna ndi kuzipempha, osawerengera mphatso zaufumu zimene anali atamupatsa. Choncho inabwerera ku dziko la kwawo pamodzi ndi atumiki ake.
14 Uremu hwegoridhe raitambirwa naSoromoni gore negore hwaisvika matarenda mazana matanhatu namakumi matanhatu namatanhatu,
Golide amene Solomoni ankalandira pa chaka ankalemera makilogalamu 23,000,
15 pasingaverengerwi mari yomutero yairipiswa vatengesi vakuru navatengesi vadiki, namadzimambo ose eArabhia navabati venyika.
osawerengera misonkho imene anthu odzacheza ndi amalonda amapereka. Golide wina ankachokera kwa mafumu onse a ku Arabiya ndi kwa abwanamkubwa a mʼdzikomo.
16 Mambo Soromoni akaita mazana maviri enhoo huru dzegoridhe rakarohwa nenyundo; nhoo imwe neimwe yaiva yakagadzirwa namazana matanhatu amashekeri egoridhe.
Mfumu Solomoni anapanga zishango zikuluzikulu 200 zagolide. Chishango chilichonse chimapangidwa ndi golide wolemera makilogalamu atatu ndi theka.
17 Akaitawo mazana matatu enhoo diki dzegoridhe rakarohwa nenyundo, nhoo imwe neimwe yakagadzirwa nemamina matatu egoridhe. Mambo akadziisa muMuzinda weSango reRebhanoni.
Anapanganso zishango zingʼonozingʼono 300 zagolide. Chishango chilichonse chimapangidwa ndi golide wolemera kilogalamu imodzi ndi theka. Ndipo mfumu inayika zishangozo mʼnyumba yake yotchedwa Nyumba ya Nkhalango ya Lebanoni.
18 Mambo akaitawo chigaro chikuru choushe chenyanga dzenzou akachifukidza negoridhe rakanakisisa.
Mfumu inapangitsanso mpando waufumu waukulu wa minyanga ya njovu, ndipo inawukutira ndi golide wabwino kwambiri.
19 Chigaro ichi chaiva namatanhiko matanhatu, uye musoro wechigaro wakanga uri wedenderedzwa shure kwacho. Kumativi maviri echigaro kwaiva nezvitsigiro zvamaoko zviviri, uye shumba mbiri dzakanga dzakamira pamativi ezvitsigiro zviviri izvi.
Mpando waufumuwo unali ndi makwerero asanu ndi limodzi, ndipo chotsamira chake chinali chozungulira pamwamba pake. Mʼmbali zonse za mpandowo munali zosanjikapo manja, pamodzi ndi chifaniziro cha mkango mbali iliyonse.
20 Shumba gumi nembiri dzakanga dzakamira pamatanhiko matanhatu, imwe chete kwaiperera danhiko rimwe nerimwe. Hakuna zvakadai zvakanga zvamboitirwa humwe umambo.
Mikango khumi ndi iwiri inayimirira pa makwerero asanu ndi limodziwo; mkango umodzi mbali iliyonse ya makwererowa. Mpando woterewu sunapangidwepo mu ufumu wina uliwonse.
21 Midziyo yose yaMambo Soromoni yokunwira yaiva yegoridhe rakanakisisa. Hapana chakanga chakagadzirwa nesirivha, nokuti sirivha yakanga isingakoshi zvikuru mumazuva aSoromoni.
Zomwera zonse za Mfumu Solomoni zinali zagolide, ziwiya zonse za Nyumba Yaufumu ya Nkhalango ya Lebanoni zinali zagolide weniweni. Panalibe chimene chinapangidwa ndi siliva chifukwa siliva sankayesedwa kanthu pa nthawi ya Solomoni.
22 Mambo aiva nechitsama chezvikepe zveTashishi pagungwa izvo zvaiva pamwe chete nezvikepe zvaHiramu. Zvikepe zveTashishi izvi zvaiuya kamwe chete mumakore matatu zviine goridhe, sirivha, nyanga dzenzou, mapikoko namakudo.
Mfumu inali ndi sitima zapamadzi zomwe zinali pa nyanja pamodzi ndi sitima za Hiramu. Kamodzi pakapita zaka zitatu zinkabwera zitanyamula golide, siliva ndi minyanga ya njovu, anyani ndi apusi.
23 Mambo Soromoni aikunda mamwe madzimambo ose panyika paupfumi napauchenjeri.
Mfumu Solomoni inali yopambana pa chuma ndi pa nzeru kuposa mafumu ena onse pa dziko lapansi.
24 Nyika yose yakada kuzosangana naSoromoni kuti inzwe uchenjeri hwakanga waiswa mumwoyo make naMwari.
Anthu onse a dziko lapansi ankafunafuna kuyankhulana ndi Solomoni kuti amve nzeru zimene Mulungu anayika mu mtima mwake.
25 Gore negore munhu wose aiuya nechipo, zvinhu zvakagadzirwa nesirivha nezvegoridhe, mbatya, zvombo nezvinonhuhwira, namabhiza namanyurusi.
Chaka ndi chaka aliyense amene amabwera ankabweretsa mphatso za siliva ndi golide, mikanjo, zida zankhondo ndi zokometsera zakudya, akavalo ndi abulu.
26 Soromoni akaunganidza ngoro namabhiza; akanga ane ngoro dzinokwana chiuru namazana mana namabhiza anokwana zviuru gumi nezviviri, zvaaichengeta kumaguta engoro nomuJerusarema maaivawo.
Solomoni anasonkhanitsa magaleta ndi akavalo; anali ndi magaleta 1,400 ndiponso oyendetsa akavalo 12,000, zimene anazisunga mʼmizinda ya magaleta ndiponso mu Yerusalemu.
27 Mambo akaita kuti sirivha iwanikwe pose pose samatombo muJerusarema uye misidhari yakawanda kunge mionde yomuzasi mamakomo.
Mfumu inachititsa kuti siliva akhale ngati miyala wamba mu Yerusalemu, ndipo mkungudza unali wochuluka ngati mitengo ya mkuyu ya mʼmbali mwa phiri.
28 Mabhiza aSoromoni aitengwa kuIjipiti nokuKuwe vatengesi vamambo vainoatengera kuKuwe.
Akavalo a Solomoni ankachokera ku Igupto komanso ku Kuwe. Anthu a malonda a mfumu ankatengera akavalowo ku Kuwe.
29 Vakatenga imwe ngoro kuIjipiti namashekeri esirivha mazana matanhatu, rimwe bhiza rikaita zana namakumi mashanu. Vaitengeserawo kumadzimambo avaHiti navaAramu.
Ankagula magaleta ku Igupto pa mtengo wa masekeli asiliva okwana 600, ndipo akavalo pa mtengo wa masekeli 150. Anthu amalondawo ankagulitsa zimenezi kwa mafumu onse a Ahiti ndi Asiriya.
