Awo bannabbi Kaggayi ne Zekkaliya muzzukulu wa Iddo ne bategeeza Abayudaaya abaabeeranga mu Yuda ne Yerusaalemi obubaka obuva eri Katonda wa Isirayiri, Katonda waabwe.
2 Ipapo Zerubhabheri mwanakomana waShearitieri naJeshua mwanakomana waJozadhaki, vakasimuka kuti vaite basa rokuvakazve imba yaMwari muJerusarema. Uye vaprofita vaMwari vakanga vanavo, vachivabatsira.
Zerubbaberi mutabani wa Seyalutyeri ne Yesuwa mutabani wa Yozadaki ne bagolokoka ne bagenda mu maaso n’omulimu gw’okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi, era ne bannabbi ba Katonda nga babayambako.
3 Panguva iyoyo Tatenai, mubati wenyika yaiva mhiri kwaYufuratesi, naShetari-Bhozenai neshamwari dzavo vakaenda kwaari uye vakandomubvunza, vachiti, “Ndiani akakupai mvumo yokuvakazve temberi iyi uye nokumisazve masvingo aya?”
Mu kiseera kyekimu Tattenayi ow’essaza ly’emitala w’omugga Fulaati, ne Sesalubozenayi ne bagenda gye bali ne bababuuza nti, “Ani eyabawa obuyinza okuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyo n’okuzaawo bbugwe oyo?”
4 Vakabvunzazve vakati, “Mazita avarume vari kuvaka imba iyi ndivanaani?”
Ate era ne bababuuza n’amannya g’abasajja abaakolanga ku kizimbe ekyo.
5 Asi ziso raMwari wavo rakanga rakatarira pamusoro pavakuru vavaJudha, uye havana kuvaregesa basa kusvikira nyaya iyi yaziviswa kuna Dhariasi uye mhinduro yake yakanyorwa yagamuchirwa.
Naye Katonda waabwe n’abeeranga wamu n’abakulu b’Abayudaaya, ne bataziyizibwa kugenda mu maaso n’omulimu okutuusa ekigambo nga kivudde eri Daliyo, n’okuddamu kwe nga kuli mu buwandiike.
6 Aya ndiwo mashoko etsamba yakanyorerwa mambo Dhariasi naTatenai, mubati mhiri kwaYufuratesi, naShetari-Bhozenai, neshamwari dzavo, namakurukota vakanga vari mhiri kwaYufuratesi.
Kopi ey’ebbaluwa Tattenayi ow’essaza ly’emitala w’omugga Fulaati, ne Sesalubozenayi ne bannaabwe abakungu ab’emitala w’omugga Fulaati gye baaweereza Kabaka Daliyo,
7 Tsamba yavakatumira kwaari yakanga ina mashoko anoti: Kuna Mambo Dhariasi: Tinokukwazisai.
yalimu ebigambo bino wansi. Eri Kabaka Daliyo, Mirembe myereere.
8 Mambo ngaazive kuti takaenda kudunhu reJudha, kutemberi yaMwari mukuru. Vanhu vari kuivaka namabwe makuru uye vachiisa matanda mumasvingo. Basa riri kuitwa nokushingaira uye riri kupfuurira mberi nokukurumidza mumaoko avo.
Kitugwanidde okumanyisa kabaka nga bwe twagenze mu ssaza lya Yuda ku yeekaalu ya Katonda omukulu. Abantu bagizimba n’amayinja amanene era bateeka n’embaawo mu bbugwe, era n’omulimu gukolebwa n’obunyiikivu n’okugenda gugenda mu maaso olw’okufuba kwabwe.
9 Takabvunza vakuru vavo tikati kwavari, “Ndiani akakupai mvumo yokuti muvakezve temberi iyi uye mumisezve masvingo aya?”
Twabuuza abakulu nti, “Ani eyabawa obuyinza okuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyo n’okuzzaawo bbugwe oyo?”
10 Takavabvunzawo kuti mazita avo vainzi vanaani, tichiitira kuti tingonyora mazita avatungamiri vavo kuti tigokuzivisai.
Era twababuuza n’amannya gaabwe, tusobole okukuweereza amannya g’abakulembeze baabwe.
11 Iyi ndiyo mhinduro yavakatipa: “Tiri varanda vaMwari wokudenga napasi, uye tiri kuvakazve temberi yakambovakwa makore mazhinji akapfuura, iyo yakavakwa namambo mukuru weIsraeri uye akaipedza.
Baatuddamu nti: “Tuli baddu ba Katonda w’eggulu n’ensi, era tuddaabiriza yeekaalu eyazimbibwa emyaka egy’edda omu ku bakabaka abakulu aba Isirayiri, n’agimala.
12 Asi nokuda kwokuti madzibaba edu akatsamwisa Mwari wokudenga, akavaisa mumaoko aNebhukadhinezari muKaradhea, mambo weBhabhironi, uyo akaparadza temberi ino akatora vanhu akavaendesa kuBhabhironi.
Naye olw’okuba nga bajjajjaffe baasunguwaza Katonda w’eggulu, yabawaayo mu mukono gwa Nebukadduneeza Omukaludaaya, kabaka w’e Babulooni, eyazikiriza yeekaalu eno n’atwala abantu e Babulooni.
13 “Kunyange zvakadaro, mugore rokutanga raSirasi mambo weBhabhironi, Mambo Sirasi akatema chirevo chokuti imba yaMwari iyi ivakwezve.
“Naye mu mwaka ogw’olubereberye ogw’obufuzi bwa Kuulo kabaka w’e Babulooni, kabaka Kuulo oyo n’awa ekiragiro okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda eno.
14 Akabvisawo midziyo yegoridhe nesirivha yeimba yaMwari yakanga iri mutemberi yeBhabhironi, yakanga yatorwa naNebhukadhinezari kubva kutemberi muJerusarema akaiuyisa kutemberi yomuBhabhironi. “Ipapo mambo Sirasi akaipa kumurume ainzi Sheshibhazari, waakanga agadza kuti ave mubati,
Ebintu ebya zaabu n’ebya ffeeza eby’omu nnyumba ya Katonda, Nebukadduneeza bye yanyaga mu yeekaalu eyali mu Yerusaalemi n’abitwala mu ssabo ly’e Babulooni, Kabaka Kuulo n’abiggyayo. Kabaka Kuulo n’abikwasa omusajja erinnya lye Sesubazaali, gwe yalonda okuba owessaza,
15 uye akamuudza kuti, ‘Tora midziyo iyi uende nayo undoiisa mutemberi muJerusarema, uye ugovakazve imba yaMwari panzvimbo yayo.’
era n’amugamba nti, ‘Twala ebintu ebyo, ogende obiteeke mu yeekaalu eri mu Yerusaalemi, era olabe ng’ennyumba ya Katonda edda mu kifo kyayo.’
16 Naizvozvo Sheshibhazari uyu akauya akateya nheyo dzeimba yaMwari muJerusarema. Kubva pazuva iroro kusvikira nhasi yanga ichingovakwa, asi haisati yapera.”
“Sesubazaali oyo n’ajja n’azimba omusingi gw’ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi, era okuva mu kiseera ekyo n’okutuusa kaakano omulimu gukyagenda mu maaso, tegunnagwa.”
17 “Zvino kana zvichifadza mambo, ngavatsvakisise mumabhuku amadzimambo eBhabhironi kuti vaone kana Mambo Sirasi zvirokwazvo vakamboisa chirevo chokuti imba yaMwari iyi ivakwezve muJerusarema. Naizvozvo mambo ngaatizivise kuda kwake pamusoro penyaya iyi.”
Noolwekyo kabaka bw’aba ng’asiimye, wabeewo okunoonyereza mu bitabo mu ggwanika lya kabaka eyo e Babulooni obanga ddala Kabaka Kuulo yawa ekiragiro okuddaabiriza ennyumba ya Katonda mu Yerusaalemi. N’oluvannyuma kabaka atutumire okututegeeza ky’asazeewo ku nsonga eyo.
