1 Tuʻi 5
1 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kia Solomone; he naʻa ne fanongo ki heʻenau fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi ke fetongi ʻa ʻene tamai: he naʻe ʻofa maʻu pe ʻa Helami kia Tevita.
Kwathi uHiramu inkosi yaseThire esizwa ukuthi uSolomoni ugcotshwe ukuba abe yinkosi athathe isihlalo sikayise, wathumela amanxusa akhe kuSolomoni njengoba wayevele ezwanana loDavida.
2 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Solomone kia Helami, ʻo pehē,
Yena uSolomoni waphendula uHiramu wathi:
3 “ʻOku ke ʻilo naʻe ʻikai faʻa langa ʻe Tevita ko ʻeku tamai ha fale ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tau naʻa ne taʻomia ai mei he potu kotoa pē, kaeʻoua ke tuku ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki hono lalo ʻaofivaʻe.
“Wena uyakwazi ukuthi ubaba uDavida kenelisanga ukwakhela iBizo likaThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe ithempeli ngenxa yezimpi ayezilwa inxa zonke, uThixo waze wamnqobela izitha zakhe.
4 Ka ko eni kuo foaki kiate au ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua ʻae melino ʻi he potu kotoa pē, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fili pe ha meʻa tuʻutāmaki ʻe fai.
Kodwa khathesi uThixo uNkulunkulu wami ungiphe ukuthula inxa zonke, ngakho akulasitha loba umonakalo.
5 Pea vakai, ʻoku ou pehē ke langa ha fale ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamai, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ho ʻalo, ʻaia te u fakanofo ki ho nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke fetongi koe, ʻe langa ʻe ia ha fale ki hoku huafa.’
Ngizimisele, ngenxa yalokho, ukwakha ithempeli leBizo likaThixo uNkulunkulu wami, njengoba watshela ubaba uDavida wathi, ‘Indodana yakho engizayibeka esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi izakwakhela iBizo lami ithempeli.’
6 Pea ko ia foki ke ke fekau ke nau tāʻanga mai ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ko e sita mei Lepanoni; pea ʻe kautaha ʻa ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki: pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae totongi koeʻuhi ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo fakatatau ki ha meʻa te ke tala ʻe koe: he ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ha kakai ʻoku poto ʻi he fai ʻoe taʻanga ʻo hangē ko e kakai ʻa Saitoni.”
Khupha-ke iziqondiso zokuthi ngiganyulelwe izihlahla zomsedari waseLebhanoni. Amadoda avela kimi azasebenza kanye lawe, njalo amadoda avela kuwe ngizawaholisa leloholo ozalitsho wena. Uyakwazi ukuthi asilabo abawaziyo lowomsebenzi ngobuciko obungalingana lobamaSidoni.”
7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe Helami ki he ngaahi lea ʻa Solomone, naʻa ne fiefia ʻaupito ai, ʻo ne pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova he ʻaho ni, ʻaia kuo ne foaki kia Tevita ha ʻalo poto ke pule ki he kakai lahi ni.”
UHiramu wathi esizwa ilizwi elivela kuSolomoni, wajabula kakhulu wathi, “Udumo kalube kuThixo lamuhla, ngoba unike uDavida indodana ehlakaniphileyo ezabusa lesisizwe esikhulu.”
8 Pea naʻe ʻave ʻae fekau ʻa Helami kia Solomone, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻaia naʻa ke fekau ai kiate au: te u fai ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke holi ki ai koeʻuhi ko e tāʻanga sita, pea koeʻuhi ko e tā ʻae ʻakau ko e paini.
Ngakho uHiramu wathumela ilizwi kuSolomoni wathi: “Ngilitholile ilizwi ongithumele lona njalo ngizakwenza konke okuzakuzuzisa izigodo zesihlahla somsedari lesohlobo lwephayini.
9 ʻE ʻohifo ia ʻe heʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki mei Lepanoni ki tahi: pea te u fetuku ia ʻi tahi ʻo taulani ki ha potu te ke fakahā mai, pea te u fekau ke tuku ia ʻi ai, pea te ke maʻu ia: pea te ke fai ki hoku loto, ʻi hoʻo tuku mai ʻae meʻakai ki hoku kaungā nofoʻanga.”
Amadoda ngapha ngakimi azagamula ahudule izigodo azifikise elwandle evela eLebhanoni, ngibe sengizehlisa ngemikolo ngize ngiyezifikisa lapha ozakutsho khona. Kulapho engizazehlukanisa khona wena ube usuzithathela khonapho uhambe lazo. Wena uzagcwalisa isifiso sami ngokunginika isiqiniseko sokuthi uzanginika ukudla komdlunkulu wami ukuze ungawelwa yindlala.”
10 Ko ia naʻe tuku ai ʻe Helami kia Solomone ʻae ngaahi ʻakau sita mo e ngaahi ʻakau paini ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻa ne holi ki ai.
Ngalindlela uHiramu walethela uSolomoni izigodo zesihlahla somsedari kanye lesephayini ayezifuna,
11 Pea naʻe ʻatu ʻe Solomone kia Helami ʻae fuaʻanga uite ʻe ua mano ko e meʻakai ki hono kaungā nofoʻanga, mo e fuaʻanga lolo lelei ʻe uofulu: naʻe pehē ʻae meʻa naʻe foaki ʻe Solomone kia Helami ʻi he taʻu taki taha.
kanti njalo yena uSolomoni wapha uHiramu ingqoloyi elingana amakhora azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili yomndlunkulu, phezu kwamafutha acengekileyo edira angamatanka azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili iminyaka leminyaka.
12 Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae poto kia Solomone, ʻo tatau mo ʻene talaʻofa kiate ia: pea naʻe nofo melino pe ʻa Helami, mo Solomone; pea naʻe fefuakavaʻaki ʻakinaua ni.
UThixo wapha uSolomoni ingqondo ekhaliphileyo njengokumethembisa kwakhe. Kwaba lokuthula ebudlelwaneni bukaHiramu loSolomoni, kwathi bobabili benza isibopho sokuhlalisana ngokuthula.
13 Pea naʻe pule ʻe Solomone ke fili mai ha kau tangata mei ʻIsileli kātoa; pea naʻe fili mai ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu mano.
INkosi uSolomoni yabutha izibhalwa zokusebenza elizweni lonke lako-Israyeli, ezazizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu.
14 Pea naʻa ne fekau atu ʻakinautolu ki Lepanoni, ko e tokotaha mano ʻi he māhina ʻe taha ʻo fai fakahokohoko: ko e māhina ʻe taha naʻa nau ʻi Lepanoni, pea ko e māhina ʻe ua naʻa nau ʻi honau ʻapi: pea naʻe puleʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻe ʻAtonilami.
Wayezithumela eLebhanoni lezizibhalwa ngezigaba zabantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi izopha ngezopha ngenyanga, kuyikuthi lezizibhalwa zazisebenza eLebhanoni inyanga yonke zibe seziphumula ekhaya okwezinyanga ezimbili. U-Adonirami nguye owayephethe labo ababuthwa babayizibhalwa zomsebenzi.
15 Pea naʻe ʻia Solomone ʻae kakai ʻe toko fitu mano ke fetuku meʻa, mo e toko valu mano ke fai tāʻanga ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga;
USolomoni wayelabantu bokuthwala abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa kanye lababebaza amatshe abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye munye ezintabeni,
16 Ka naʻe ʻikai lau ai ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻa Solomone ʻaia naʻe enginakiʻi ʻae ngāue, ko e toko tolu afe mo e toko tolungeau, ʻakinautolu naʻe pule ki he kakai naʻe fai ʻae ngāue.
kanye lababekhangele abasebenzayo abangamakhulu amathathu lantathu lababebona ngokuqhubeka komsebenzi beqondisa izisebenzi.
17 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi maka lalahi, mo e maka mahuʻinga, mo e maka naʻe tā, koeʻuhi ke fakatoka ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe fale.
Ngeziqondiso zenkosi bakhupha inkalakatha zamatshe amahle ukuze kube lamatshe amahle okwakhisa ngawo isisekelo sethempeli esilohlonzi.
18 Pea naʻe tā ia ʻe he kau tufunga ʻa Solomone pea mo e kau tufunga ʻa Helami, pea mo e kakai Kipila: naʻe pehē ʻenau teuteu ʻae taʻanga ʻakau mo e ngaahi maka ke langaʻaki ʻae fale.
Izingcitshi zokubaza zikaSolomoni lezikaHiramu lamaGebhali babaza balungisa izigodo lamatshe kusakhiwa ithempeli.
