1 Ipapo Soromoni akaunganidza pamberi pake vakuru veIsraeri navatungamiri vamarudzi muJerusarema namadzishe emhuri dzavaIsraeri, kuti vauyise areka yesungano yaJehovha kubva kuZioni, Guta raDhavhidhi.
Then he called together Solomon [the] elders of Israel all [the] chiefs of the tribes [the] leaders of the fathers of [the] people of Israel to the king Solomon Jerusalem to bring up [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh from [the] city of David that [is] Zion.
2 Vanhu vose veIsraeri vakaungana pana Mambo Soromoni panguva yomutambo mumwedzi waEtanimi, unova mwedzi wechinomwe.
And they assembled to the king Solomon every person of Israel in [the] month of Ethanim at the festival that [was] the month seventh.
3 Vakuru vose veIsraeri vakati vasvika, vaprista vakatakura areka,
And they came all [the] elders of Israel and they lifted the priests the ark.
4 uye vakauyisa areka yaJehovha, neTende Rokusangana nemidziyo yose yakatsaurwa yaiva mairi. Vaprista navaRevhi vakazvitakura,
And they brought up [the] ark of Yahweh and [the] tent of meeting and all [the] utensils of holiness which [were] in the tent and they brought up them the priests and the Levites.
5 uye Mambo Soromoni neungano yose yeIsraeri yakanga yaungana paari, vakanga vanaye pamberi peareka, vachibayira makwai nehando zvakawanda zvokuti zvakanga zvisingagoni kuverengwa nokuwanda kwazvo.
And the king Solomon and all [the] congregation of Israel who were gathered to him with him before the ark [were] sacrificing sheep and cattle which not they were counted and not they were numbered from multitude.
6 Ipapo vaprista vakatakura areka yesungano yaJehovha vakaenda nayo kunzvimbo yayo munzvimbo tsvene yomukati metemberi, muNzvimbo Tsvene-tsvene, vakaigadzika pasi pamapapiro amakerubhi.
And they brought the priests [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh to place its to [the] innermost room of the house to [the] holy place of the holy places to under [the] wings of the cherubim.
7 Makerubhi akatambanudza mapapiro awo pamusoro penzvimbo yeareka uye akafukidza areka namatanda ayo okutakurisa.
For the cherubim [were] spreading out wings to [the] place of the ark and they covered the cherubim over the ark and over poles its from to above.
8 Matanda aya akanga akareba zvokuti miromo yawo yaionekwa munhu ari paNzvimbo Tsvene pamberi penzvimbo tsvene yomukati, asi kwete munhu ari kunze kweNzvimbo Tsvene; uye achiripo nanhasi.
And they were long the poles and they were visible [the] heads of the poles from the holy place on [the] face of the innermost room and not they were visible the outside towards and they have been there until the day this.
9 Muareka makanga musina chinhu kunze kwamahwendefa maviri amabwe ayo akanga aiswamo naMozisi paHorebhi, Jehovha paakaita sungano navaIsraeri mushure mokunge vabuda muIjipiti.
There not [was] in the ark only [the] two [the] tablets of stone which he placed there Moses at Horeb where he made Yahweh with [the] people of Israel when came out they from [the] land of Egypt.
10 Vaprista vakati vabuda paNzvimbo Tsvene, gore rakazadza temberi yaJehovha.
And it was when came out the priests from the holy place and the cloud it filled [the] house of Yahweh.
11 Uye vaprista vakatadza kuita shumiro yavo nokuda kwegore, nokuti kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakazadza temberi yaJehovha.
And not they were able the priests to stand to serve because of the cloud for it filled [the] glory of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.
12 Ipapo Soromoni akati, “Jehovha ati anoda kugara mukati merima guru;
Then he said Solomon Yahweh he has said to dwell in thick darkness.
13 zvirokwazvo ndakuvakirai temberi yakanakisisa, nzvimbo yamungagara nokusingaperi.”
Certainly I have built a house of loftiness for you a place to dwell in you forever.
14 Ungano yose yaIsraeri imire ipapo, mambo akatendeukira kwavari akavaropafadza.
And he turned the king face his and he blessed all [the] assembly of Israel and all [the] assembly of Israel [was] standing.
15 Zvino akati: “Ngaarumbidzwe Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, uyo ashandisa ruoko rwake kuzadzisa zvaakavimbisa nomuromo wake kuna baba vangu Dhavhidhi.
And he said [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he spoke with mouth his with David father my and with hand his he has fulfilled saying.
16 Nokuti akati, ‘Kubvira pazuva randakabudisa vanhu vangu Israeri kubva muIjipiti, handina kusarudza guta rorudzi rupi rweIsraeri kuti ndivake temberi, kuti Zita rangu rive ipapo, asi ndakasarudza Dhavhidhi kuti atonge vanhu vangu Israeri.’
Since the day when I brought out people my Israel from Egypt not I chose a city from all [the] tribes of Israel to build a house to be name my there and I have chosen David to be over people my Israel.
17 “Baba vangu Dhavhidhi, mumwoyo mavo vaida kuvakira Zita raJehovha, Mwari weIsraeri, temberi.
And it was with [the] heart of David father my to build a house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
18 Asi Jehovha akati kuna baba vangu Dhavhidhi, ‘Nokuti zvakanga zviri mumwoyo mako kuti uvakire Zita rangu temberi, wakaita zvakanaka kuva naizvozvo mumwoyo mako.
And he said Yahweh to David father my because that it was with heart your to build a house for name my you did well that it was with heart your.
19 Kunyange zvakadaro, iwe hausi kuzovaka temberi iyi, asi mwanakomana wako, wauchabereka ndiye achavakira Zita rangu temberi.’
Only you not you will build the house that except son your who comes out from loins your he he will build the house for name my.
20 “Jehovha achengeta chivimbiso chaakaita: ini ndatevera panzvimbo yababa vangu Dhavhidhi, uye zvino ndigere pachigaro chokutonga chaIsraeri, sokuvimbisa kwakaita Jehovha, uye ndavakira Zita raJehovha, Mwari weIsraeri, temberi.
And he has established Yahweh word his which he spoke and I have arisen in place of David father my and I have sat on [the] throne of Israel just as he spoke Yahweh and I have built the house for [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
21 Imomo ndakagadzira nzvimbo yeareka, iyo ine sungano yaJehovha yaakaita namadzibaba edu paakavabudisa kubva muIjipiti.”
And I have set up there a place for the ark where [is] there [the] covenant of Yahweh which he made with ancestors our when brought out he them from [the] land of Egypt.
22 Ipapo Soromoni akamira pamberi pearitari yaJehovha pamberi peungano yose yaIsraeri, akatambanudza maoko ake kudenga,
And he stood Solomon before [the] altar of Yahweh before all [the] assembly of Israel and he spread out palms his the heavens.
23 akati, “Jehovha, Mwari weIsraeri, hakuna mumwe Mwari akaita semi kumusoro kudenga kana pasi panyika, imi munochengeta sungano yorudo yavaranda venyu vanofamba pamberi penyu nomwoyo wavo wose.
And he said O Yahweh [the] God of Israel there not like you [is] a God in the heavens above and on the earth beneath [who] keeps the covenant and covenant loyalty to servants your who walk before you with all heart their.

Who you have kept to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him and you spoke with mouth your and with hand your you have fulfilled as the day this.
25 “Zvino Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, chengeterai muranda wenyu Dhavhidhi baba vangu, zvivimbiso zvamakamuitira pamakati, ‘Pamberi pangu hapangazoshayikwi munhu anokutevera pachigaro choushe cheIsraeri, kana vana vako vakachenjera pane zvose zvavanoita, vakafamba pamberi pangu sezvawakaita iwe.’
And therefore O Yahweh - [the] God of Israel keep to servant your David father my [that] which you spoke to him saying not it will be cut off to you a man from to before me [who] sits on [the] throne of Israel only if they will guard descendants your way their to walk before me just as you have walked before me.

And therefore O God of Israel let it be established please (word your *Q(K)*) which you spoke to servant your David father my.
27 “Chingava chokwadi here kuti Mwari angagara panyika? Tarirai, matenga kana nokudengadenga hazvingagoni kukukwanai. Ko, kuzoti temberi iyi yandakuvakirai!
For ¿ really will he dwell God on the earth here! the heavens and [the] heavens of the heavens not they contain you indeed? for the house this which I have built.
