1 Madzimambo 9
1 Zvino Soromoni akati apedza kuvaka temberi yaJehovha nomuzinda wamambo nezvose zvaaida kuvaka,
And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to execute:
2 Jehovha akazviratidza kwaari kechipiri, sezvaakazviratidza kwaari paGibheoni.
That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gib'on.
3 Jehovha akati kwaari: “Ndanzwa munyengetero wako nechikumbiro chako chawaita pamberi pangu; temberi iyi yawavaka ndaiita tsvene, nokuisa Zita rangu mairi nokusingaperi. Meso angu nomwoyo wangu zvichavamo nguva dzose.
And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast offered before me; I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there at all times.
4 “Zvino iwe, kana ukafamba pamberi pangu nomwoyo wakanaka nokururama, sezvakaitwa naDhavhidhi baba vako, uye ukaita zvose zvandinorayira uye ukatevera mitemo nemirayiro yangu,
And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in rectitude, to do in accordance with all that I have commanded thee, [and] wilt keep my statutes and my ordinances:
5 ndichasimbisa chigaro chako choushe pamusoro peIsraeri nokusingaperi sezvandakavimbisa Dhavhidhi baba vako pandakati, ‘Hapangashayikwi munhu anokutevera pachigaro choushe chaIsraeri.’
Then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever; as I have spoken concerning David thy father, saying, There shall never fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
6 “Asi kana mukarega kunditevera, imi kana vana venyu, uye mukarega kuchengeta mirayiro yangu nemitemo yangu yandakaisa pamberi penyu, asi mukaenda kundoshumira vamwe vamwari uye mukavanamata,
But if ye will at all turn away, ye or your children, from following me, and will not keep my commandments [and] my statutes which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods, and bow down to them:
7 ipapo ndichaparadza Israeri panyika yandakavapa ndigofuratira temberi iyi yandaita tsvene nokuda kweZita rangu. Ipapo Israeri ichazova chirevo nechiseko pakati pamarudzi ose avanhu.
Then will I cut off Israel from the face of the land which I have given them; and the house, which I have hallowed unto my name, will I cast away from my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a by-word among all the nations;
8 Kunyange zvazvo temberi iyi ichishamisa kwazvo iye zvino, avo vachazopfuura napairi vachazoshamiswa vagoshora vachiti, ‘Jehovha aitirei chinhu chakadai kunyika iyi nokutemberi iyi?’
And at this house, [which] should be so exalted, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and men will say, Why hath the Lord done thus unto this land, and unto this house?
9 Vanhu vachapindura vachiti, ‘Nokuti vakasiya Jehovha Mwari wavo akabudisa madzibaba avo muIjipiti, uye vakanamatira vamwe vamwari, vachivanamata nokuvashandira, ndokusaka Jehovha akauyisa dambudziko guru rakadai pavari.’”
And they shall say, For the cause that they forsook the Lord their God, who had brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and took hold of other gods, and bowed down to them, and served them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.
10 Makore makumi maviri akati apera, panguva yakavakwa dzimba idzi mbiri naSoromoni, temberi yaJehovha nomuzinda wamambo,
And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the king's house,
11 Mambo Soromoni akapa Hiramu mambo weTire maguta makumi maviri muGarirea, nokuti Hiramu akanga amupa misidhari, misipuresi negoridhe, zvose zvaaida.
(Now Hiram the king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar-trees and fir-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire, ) that king Solomon then gave to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 Asi Hiramu paakabva kuTire akaenda kundoona maguta aya aakanga apiwa naSoromoni, haana kufadzwa nawo.
And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; but they were not right in his eyes.
13 Akabvunza akati, “Maguta erudzii aya awandipa, hama yangu?” Naizvozvo akaatumidza zita rokuti Nyika yeKabhuru, rinova ndiro zita rawo nanhasi.
And he said, What kind of cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them, The land of Cabul, until this day.
14 Zvino Hiramu akanga atumira mambo matarenda zana namakumi maviri egoridhe.
And Hiram sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.
15 Heino nhoroondo yechibharo chakashandiswa naMambo Soromoni pakuvaka temberi yaJehovha, muzinda wake, Miro, rusvingo rweJerusarema neHazori, Megidho neGezeri.
And this is the manner of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and the Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Chazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 Faro mambo weIjipiti akanga arwisa uye akatora Gezeri. Akanga aripisa nomoto. Akauraya vaKenani vaigara mariri akaripa kumwanasikana wake, mukadzi waSoromoni sechipo pakuwanikwa kwake.
(Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and captured Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it as a marriage-present unto his daughter, Solomon's wife.
17 Uye Soromoni akavaka Gezeri patsva. Akavaka Bheti Horoni yeZasi,
And Solomon built Gezer, and lower Beth-choron,
18 Bhaarati, neTadhimori murenje, munyika imomo,
And Ba'alath, and Thadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
19 pamwe chete namaguta ake ose amatura, namaguta engoro dzake namabhiza ake, zvose zvaakada kuvaka muJerusarema, muRebhanoni nomunyika yose yaaitonga.
And all the treasure-cities that Solomon had, and the cities for the chariots, and the cities for the horsemen, and the [other] desire of Solomon which he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.)
20 Vanhu vose vakanga vasara pavaAmori, vaHiti, vaPerizi, vaHivhi navaJebhusi (vanhu ava vakanga vasiri vaIsraeri),
All the people that were left of the Emorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel,
21 vana vavo vakanga vasara munyika, vasina kugona kuparadzwa zvachose navaIsraeri, ivava Soromoni akavaunganidza kuti vashande savaranda vake, sezvazviri kusvikira nhasi.
Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel had not been able utterly to destroy, these did Solomon levy as tributary laborers until this day.
22 Asi Soromoni haana kuita varanda pakati pavaIsraeri; ndivo vaiva mauto ake, makurukota ake ehurumende, machinda ake, vatungamiri vake vamauto, varayiri vezvengoro navachairi vengoro.
Yet of the children of Israel did Solomon make no one a bond-man; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and the officers of his chariots, and of his horsemen.
23 Ndivozve vaiva machinda makuru aiona nezvamabasa aiitwa naSoromoni, vatariri mazana mashanu namakumi mashanu vaitungamirira vanhu vaiita basa.
These [also] were the chiefs of the superintendents that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people that wrought on the work.
24 Mushure mokunge mwanasikana waFaro abva kuGuta raDhavhidhi akauya kumuzinda wake waakanga avakirwa naSoromoni, Soromoni akavaka Miro.
But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of David unto her house which he had built for her: then did he build the Millo.
25 Katatu pagore Soromoni akabayira zvipiriso zvinopiswa nezvipiriso zvokuyananisa paaritari yaakanga avakira Jehovha, akapisa zvinonhuhwira pamwe chete nazvo pamberi paJehovha. Saizvozvo akapedza nezvetemberi.
And Solomon did offer three times in every year burnt-offerings and peace-offerings upon the altar which he had built unto the Lord, and he burnt incense upon the one that was before the Lord. So he finished the house.
26 Mambo Soromoni akavakawo zvikepe paEzioni Gebheri, iri pedyo neEroti muEdhomu, pamahombekombe eGungwa Dzvuku.
And king Solomon made a ship in 'Ezyon-geber, which is near Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
27 Uye Hiramu akatuma varanda vake, vafambisi vezvikepe vaiziva gungwa kuti vazoshandisa zvikepe pamwe chete navaranda vaSoromoni.
And Hiram sent in the ship his servants, seamen, that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 Vakaenda kuOfiri, vakandodzokako namazana mana namakumi maviri amatarenda egoridhe, ayo avakandopa Mambo Soromoni.
And they came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Solomon.
