2 Berɛsosɛm 5
1 Ɛberɛ a Salomo wiee Awurade Asɔredan no sie ho dwumadie no, ɔde akyɛdeɛ a nʼagya, Ɔhene Dawid, de maa Awurade, a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nneɛma a aka no baeɛ. Wɔkoraa yeinom nyinaa wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no sikakorabea mu.
Usuphelile umsebenzi wonke uSolomoni ayewenzela indlu yeNkosi, wangenisa izinto ezingcwelisiweyo zikaDavida uyise, lesiliva legolide lazo zonke izitsha wazibeka esiphaleni senotho sendlu kaNkulunkulu.
2 Afei, Salomo frɛɛ mmusuakuo ne mmusua ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa sɛ wɔmmɛhyia Yerusalem. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi Awurade Apam Adaka no firi baabi a ɛsi wɔ Dawid kuro a na wɔsane frɛ hɔ Sion no, de kɔ beaeɛ foforɔ wɔ Asɔredan no mu hɔ.
Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wabuthanisa eJerusalema abadala bakoIsrayeli, lazo zonke inhloko zezizwe, izinduna zaboyise babantwana bakoIsrayeli, ukuthi benyuse umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi usuke emzini kaDavida oyiZiyoni.
3 Bosome Bul (bɛyɛ Ahinime) a wɔredi afirinhyia Asese Afahyɛ no, wɔn nyinaa bɛhyiaa ɔhene anim.
Wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli asebuthana enkosini emkhosini owenyanga yesikhombisa.
4 Ɛberɛ a mpanimfoɔ no bɛduruu Israel no, Lewifoɔ no pagyaa Adaka no
Labo bonke abadala bakoIsrayeli beza, amaLevi asewuthwala umtshokotsho,
5 ne ntomadan sononko ne ɛho nneɛma kronkron no nyinaa. Lewifoɔ asɔfoɔ no soa kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu.
awuletha umtshokotsho lethente lenhlangano lazo zonke izitsha ezingcwele ezazisethenteni; abapristi lamaLevi basebekwenyusa.
6 Ɔhene Salomo ne Israel manfoɔ no nyinaa de nnwan ne anantwie a wɔn dodoɔ nni ano bɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ Adaka no anim.
Inkosi uSolomoni lenhlangano yonke yakoIsrayeli eyayibuthene phambi komtshokotsho basebenikela imihlatshelo yezimvu lezinkabi ezingelakubhalwa lezingelakubalwa ngobunengi.
7 Afei, asɔfoɔ no maa Awurade Apam Adaka no so, de kɔɔ Asɔredan no kronkronbea a ɛhɔ yɛ Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ, de kɔhyɛɛ Kerubim no ntaban ase.
Abapristi basebewungenisa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi endaweni yawo, endaweni yelizwi yendlu, kungcwele yezingcwele, kwaze kwaba ngaphansi kwempiko zamakherubhi.
8 Kerubim no trɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu wɔ Adaka no so, ma ɛyɛɛ sɛ kyiniiɛ wɔ Adaka no ne ne nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no so.
Ngoba amakherubhi elulela impiko zawo phezu kwendawo yomtshokotsho; amakherubhi awembesa umtshokotsho lemijabo yawo ngaphezulu.
9 Na nnua no woware yie; enti sɛ obi gyina Asɔredan no ano kwan ano a ɔhunu. Ne nyinaa da so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
Basebeselula imijabo, izihloko zemijabo zaze zabonakala emtshokotshweni phambi kwendawo yelizwi, kodwa zingabonakali ngaphandle; ukhona lapho-ke kuze kube lamuhla.
10 Na biribiara nni adaka no mu sɛ aboɔ apono mmienu a Mose de guu mu wɔ Horeb wɔ ɛberɛ a Awurade ne Israelfoɔ a na wɔatu afiri Misraim no yɛɛ apam no.
Kwakungelalutho emtshokotshweni, ngaphandle kwezibhebhe ezimbili uMozisi azifaka khona eHorebe lapho iNkosi eyenza khona isivumelwano labantwana bakoIsrayeli ekuphumeni kwabo eGibhithe.
11 Afei, asɔfoɔ no firii kronkronbea hɔ. Saa ɛberɛ yi, na asɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa, sɛ wɔwɔ dwuma bi die anaa wɔnni hwee yɛ, adwira wɔn ho.
Kwasekusithi abapristi bephuma endaweni engcwele, ngoba bonke abapristi abatholakalayo babezihlambulule bengagcinanga izigaba,
12 Lewifoɔ nnwomtofoɔ, Asaf, Heman, Yedutun, wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn nuanom nyinaa hyehyɛɛ nwera mmatakari gyinagyinaa afɔrebukyia no apueeɛ fam, na wɔbɔɔ kyankyan, mmɛnta ne nsankuten. Asɔfoɔ ɔha aduonu a wɔrehyɛn totorobɛnto bɛkaa wɔn ho.
lamaLevi angabahlabeleli babo bonke - akoAsafi, akoHemani, akoJeduthuni, lakumadodana abo lakubafowabo - begqoke amalembu acolekileyo amhlophe, belezinsimbi ezincencethayo lezigubhu zezintambo lamachacho, bema ngempumalanga kwelathi; njalo kanye labo kulabapristi abalikhulu lamatshumi amabili bekhalisa izimpondo.
13 Ntotorobɛntohyɛnfoɔ ne nnwomtofoɔ no nyinaa bɔɔ mu too dwom de kamfoo Awurade, daa no ase. Wɔde ntotorobɛnto, kyankyan ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ bɛkaa wɔn ho, maa wɔn nne so, kamfoo Awurade sɛ: “Ɔyɛ! Na nʼadɔeɛ wɔ hɔ daa!” Saa ɛberɛ no mu ara, omununkum bɛhyɛɛ Awurade asɔredan no ma.
Kwasekusithi bekhalisa izimpondo behlabelela kanyekanye ukuzwakalisa umsindo owodwa, ukudumisa lokubonga iNkosi, lalapho bephakamisa ilizwi ngezimpondo langezinsimbi ezincencethayo lezinto zokuhlabelela, lalapho bedumisa iNkosi ukuthi ilungile lokuthi umusa wayo umi kuze kube phakade, indlu yagcwaliswa liyezi, indlu yeNkosi,
14 Asɔfoɔ no antumi antoa wɔn adwuma no so, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade animuonyam bɛhyɛɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ma.
abapristi kabaze baba lakho ukuma ukukhonza ngenxa yeyezi, ngoba inkazimulo yeNkosi yagcwalisa indlu kaNkulunkulu.
