2 Berɛsosɛm 6
1 Afei, Salomo bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao Awurade, woaka sɛ, wobɛtena omununkum kusuu mu.
Ngalesosikhathi uSolomoni wathi: UJehova wathi uzahlala emnyameni onzima.
2 Afei, masi Asɔredan a ɛho wɔ nyam ama wo, baabi a wobɛtumi atena afebɔɔ.”
Kodwa mina ngikwakhele indlu yokuhlala, lendawo yokuhlala kwakho kuze kube nini lanini.
3 Na ɔhene no danee ne ho kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ a wɔgyina nʼanim no nyinaa, hyiraa wɔn sɛ,
Inkosi yasiphendula ubuso bayo, yabusisa ibandla lonke lakoIsrayeli; ibandla lonke-ke lakoIsrayeli lalimi.
4 “Nhyira nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, a wadi ɛbɔ a ɔhyɛɛ mʼagya Dawid no so, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔka kyerɛɛ mʼagya sɛ,
Yasisithi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyakhuluma ngomlomo wayo kuDavida ubaba yakugcwalisa ngezandla zayo, isithi:
5 ‘Ɛfiri da a meyii me nkurɔfoɔ firii Misraim no, menyii kuropɔn biara mfirii Israel mmusuakuo no mu sɛ baabi a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi Asɔredan, de hyɛ me din animuonyam. Ɛnna nso, menyii ɔhene biara sɛ ɔnni me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ anim.
Kusukela ngosuku engakhupha ngalo abantu bami elizweni leGibhithe kangikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli ukwakha indlu, ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, kangikhethanga muntu ukuba ngumkhokheli phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
6 Nanso, afei, mayi Yerusalem sɛ kuropɔn, ne Dawid sɛ ɔhene.’”
Kodwa ngakhetha iJerusalema ukuthi ibizo lami libe lapho, ngakhetha uDavida ukuthi abe phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
7 Afei, Salomo kaa sɛ, “Mʼagya Dawid pɛɛ sɛ ɔsi saa Asɔredan yi de hyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
Njalo kwakusenhliziyweni kaDavida ubaba ukwakhela ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, indlu.
8 Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ sɛ wopɛ sɛ wosi asɔredan de hyɛ me din animuonyam
Kodwa iNkosi yathi kuDavida ubaba: Njengoba kwakusenhliziyweni yakho ukwakhela ibizo lami indlu, wenze kuhle ngokuthi kwakusenhliziyweni yakho.
9 nanso, ɛnyɛ wo na wobɛyɛ. Mmom, wo mmammarima no mu baako na ɔbɛsi.’
Lanxa kunjalo kawuyikuyakha indlu wena, kodwa indodana yakho ezaphuma ekhalweni lwakho, yiyo ezakwakhela ibizo lami indlu.
10 “Na afei, Awurade ayɛ deɛ ɔhyɛɛ ho bɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ, masi mʼagya anan mu sɛ ɔhene. Masi saa Asɔredan yi de ahyɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din animuonyam.
INkosi isiqinisile ilizwi layo eyalikhulumayo, ngoba ngivelile esikhundleni sikaDavida ubaba, ngihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli, njengokukhuluma kweNkosi; sengilakhele ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, indlu.
11 Ɛhɔ na mede Adaka no asi, na Adaka no mu nso na apam a Awurade ne Israelfoɔ yɛeɛ no hyɛ.”
Ngiwubeke khona umtshokotsho lapho okulesivumelwano seNkosi khona eyasenza labantwana bakoIsrayeli.
12 Na Salomo pagyaa ne nsa kyerɛɛ soro wɔ Awurade afɔrebukyia ne Israel manfoɔ no nyinaa anim.
Wasesima phambi kwelathi leNkosi maqondana lebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welula izandla zakhe.
13 Na wabɔ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ apa a nʼatweeɛmu yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, na ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ɛnan ne fa, de asi asɔredan no adihɔ mfimfini. Ɔgyinaa apa no so wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim. Ɔbuu nkotodwe, maa ne nsa so kyerɛɛ soro.
Ngoba uSolomoni wayenze isitubhu sethusi, ubude baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lobubanzi baso buzingalo ezinhlanu, lokuphakama kwaso kuzingalo ezintathu, wasimisa phakathi laphakathi kweguma. Wema phezu kwaso, waguqa ngamadolo akhe phambi kwebandla lonke lakoIsrayeli, welulela izandla zakhe emazulwini,
14 Ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Ao Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, Onyankopɔn biara nni hɔ sɛ wo wɔ ɔsoro ne asase so nyinaa. Wodi wo bɔhyɛ so, na woda wo dɔ a ɛwɔ hɔ daa no adi kyerɛ wɔn a wɔtie wo na wɔn ani gye sɛ wɔbɛyɛ wʼapɛdeɛ nyinaa.
wathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kakho uNkulunkulu onjengawe emazulwini lemhlabeni, ogcina isivumelwano lomusa ezincekwini zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yazo,
15 Wo bɔ a wohyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no, woadi so. Wʼankasa wʼano na wode hyɛɛ bɔ no, na ɛnnɛ, wonam wʼankasa wo nsa so ama aba mu.
ogcinele inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo; ngoba wakhuluma ngomlomo wakho usukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengalamuhla.
16 “Afei, Ao Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ma ɛbɔ a wokɔɔ so hyɛɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔyɛ mʼagya no mmra mu. Woka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ wʼasefoɔ bɔ wɔn bra yie, na wɔdi me mmara so sɛdeɛ woayɛ no a, wɔbɛdi Israel so ɔhene daa daa.’
Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, gcinela inceku yakho uDavida ubaba lokho owakutsho kuyo usithi: Kakuyikusweleka umuntu kuwe phambi kobuso bami ozahlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli; kuphela uba abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo phambi kwami, ukuthi bahambe ngomlayo wami, njengalokho uhambile phambi kwami.
17 Afei, Ao Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, di saa bɔ a woahyɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ Dawid no so.
Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kaliqiniseke ilizwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho, kuDavida.
18 “Ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛtena nnipa mu wɔ asase so? Ɔsorosoro nohoa mpo ntumi nkora wo, na ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Asɔredan a masie yi bɛtumi akora wo.
Kambe ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu angahlala labantu emhlabeni? Khangela, amazulu, yebo, amazulu amazulu angekwanele; kangakanani-ke lindlu engiyakhileyo?
19 Tie me mpaeɛbɔ ne mʼadesrɛdeɛ, Ao Awurade, me Onyankopɔn. Tie osufrɛ ne mpaeɛ a wo ɔsomfoɔ rebɔ no.
Kodwa phendukela emkhulekweni wenceku yakho lekuncengeni kwayo, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, ukuzwa ukukhala lomkhuleko inceku yakho ekukhulekayo phambi kwakho.
20 Hwɛ saa Asɔredan yi so, beaeɛ a woaka sɛ wode wo din bɛto so no, awia ne anadwo. Daa, tie me mpaeɛ a mebɔ wɔ ha no.
Ukuze amehlo akho avulekele lindlu emini lebusuku, endaweni owatsho ngayo ukuthi uzabeka ibizo lakho khona, ukuthi uwuzwe umkhuleko inceku yakho ewukhulekayo ikhangele kulindawo.
21 Tie mʼahobrɛaseɛ ne nokorɛ adebisa a me ne wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ bɔ mpaeɛ wɔ ha de to wʼanim no. Aane, tie yɛn firi soro baabi a wote no; na sɛ wote nso a, fa kyɛ.
Ngakho zwana ukuncenga kwenceku yakho lokwabantu bakho uIsrayeli abazakukhuleka bekhangele kulindawo; yebo, uzwe wena, usendaweni yakho yokuhlala, usemazulwini; lapho usizwa, uthethelele.
22 “Sɛ obi fom obi, na ɛho hia sɛ ɔka ho ntam sɛ ɔnnim ho hwee wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛsi asɔredan mu no anim a,
Uba umuntu esona kumakhelwane wakhe, amethese isifungo ukumenza afunge, njalo isifungo size phambi kwelathi lakho kulindlu,
23 tie firi soro, na bu wʼasomfoɔ baanu no a ɛyɛ deɛ wɔabɔ no soboɔ no ne soboɔbɔfoɔ no ntam atɛn. Deɛ ɔdi fɔ no, twe nʼaso na gyaa deɛ ɔdi bem no.

24 “Sɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ yɛ bɔne tia wo, na ɛno enti wɔn atamfoɔ di wɔn so nkonim na wɔsane ba wo nkyɛn, bɔ wo din na wɔbɔ wo mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan yi mu a,
Lalapho abantu bakho uIsrayeli betshaywa phambi kwesitha, ngoba bonile kuwe, uba bephenduka, balivume ibizo lakho, bakhuleke bencenga phambi kwakho kulindlu,
25 tie firi soro, na fa wɔn bɔne kyɛ wɔn, na ma wɔnsane nkɔ asase a wode maa wɔn agyanom no so.
zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, uthethelele isono sabantu bakho uIsrayeli, ubabuyisele elizweni owalinika bona laboyise.
26 “Sɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ yɛ bɔne tia wo, na ɛno enti wɔto ɔsoro mu na osuo antɔ na wɔbɔ mpaeɛ wɔ Asɔredan yi mu, bɔ wo din, twe wɔn ho firi wɔn bɔne ho, ɛfiri sɛ, woatwe wɔn aso a,
Lapho amazulu evaliwe, njalo kungelazulu, ngoba bonile kuwe, uba bekhuleka bekhangele kulindawo belivuma ibizo lakho, baphenduke esonweni sabo, nxa ubahluphile,
27 tie firi soro, na fa wʼasomfoɔ, wo nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ bɔne no kyɛ. Kyerɛ wɔn deɛ ɛyɛ, na ma osuo ntɔ ngu wʼasase a wode ama wo nkurɔfoɔ sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ sononko no so.
zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, uthethelele isono senceku zakho lesabantu bakho uIsrayeli, usubafundise indlela enhle abazahamba ngayo; unise izulu elizweni lakho owalinika abantu bakho libe yilifa labo.
28 “Sɛ ɛkɔm si asase no so anaa ɔyaredɔm ba so anaa mfudeɛ nyarewa ba anaa ntutummɛ ne asa bɛgu mfudeɛ so, anaa wo nkurɔfoɔ atamfoɔ ba asase no so bɛtua wɔn nkuro a, sɛdeɛ ɔhaw no te biara no,
Uba kulendlala elizweni, uba kulomatshayabhuqe wesifo, uba kulokutshisa, lengumane, isikhonyane, lemihogoyi; uba izitha zabo zibavimbezela elizweni lesango labo, loba yiyiphi inhlupheko laloba yiwuphi umkhuhlane;

30 tie firi ɔsoro deɛ wote hɔ, na fa kyɛ. Fa biribiara a ɛfata wo nkurɔfoɔ no ma wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wo nko ara na wonim onipa akoma mu.
zwana-ke wena usemazulwini, indawo yakho yokuhlala, uthethelele, uphe ngulowo lalowo ngokwezindlela zakhe zonke, onhliziyo yakhe uyayazi, ngoba nguwe wedwa owazi inhliziyo yabantwana babantu,
31 Ɛno akyi wɔbɛsuro wo na wɔanante wʼakwan so mmerɛ dodoɔ a wɔte asase a wode maa yɛn agyanom no so.
ukuze bakwesabe bahambe endleleni zakho insuku zonke abaziphila ebusweni bomhlaba owawupha obaba.
32 “Na sɛ ananafoɔ te wo nka ne wo nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ akɛseɛ no, na wɔfiri akyirikyiri bɛsom wo din kɛseɛ no, bɔ mpaeɛ de wɔn ani kyerɛ Asɔredan yi a,
Njalo mayelana lowezizweni ongesuye owabantu bakho uIsrayeli, kodwa evela elizweni elikhatshana ngenxa yebizo lakho elikhulu lesandla sakho esilamandla lengalo yakho eyeluliweyo; lapho besizakhuleka kulindlu,

Uba besona kuwe, ngoba kakulamuntu ongoniyo, ubusubathukuthelela, ubanikele phambi kwesitha, ukuze ababathumbileyo babathumbele elizweni elikhatshana kumbe eliseduze,
