1 Chronicles 22

1 Nígbà náà Dafidi wí pé, “Ilé Olúwa Ọlọ́run ni ó gbọdọ̀ wà níbí, àti pẹ̀lú pẹpẹ ẹbọ sísun fún Israẹli.”

And David said, This is the house of the Lord God, and this [is] the altar for whole-burnt-offering for Israel.

2 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi pàṣẹ láti kó àwọn àjèjì tí ń gbé ní Israẹli jọ, àti wí pé lára wọn ni ó ti yan àwọn agbẹ́-òkúta láti gbé òkúta dáradára láti fi kọ́lé Ọlọ́run.

And David gave orders to gather all the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he appointed stone-hewers to hew polished stones to build the house to God.

3 Dafidi sì pèsè ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iye irin láti fi ṣe ìṣó fún àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn ẹnu-ọ̀nà àti fún idẹ; àti fún òpó idẹ ni àìní ìwọ̀n.

And David prepared much iron for the nails of the doors and the gate; the hinges also and brass in abundance, there was no weighing [of it].

4 Ó sì tún pèsè ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ igi Kedari tí ó jẹ́ àìníye, nítorí pé àwọn ará Sidoni àti àwọn ará Tire mú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ igi kedari wá fún Dafidi.

And cedar threes without number: for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought cedar trees in abundance to David.

5 Dafidi wí pé, “Ọmọ mi Solomoni ọ̀dọ́mọdé ni ó sì jẹ́ aláìní ìrírí, ilé tí a ó kọ́ fún Olúwa gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ títóbi jọjọ, kí ó sì ní òkìkí àti ògo jákèjádò gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè. Nítorí náà ni èmi yóò ṣe pèsè sílẹ̀ fún un”. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi sì ṣe ìpèsè sílẹ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ kí ó tó di wí pé ó kú.

And David said, My son Solomon [is] a tender child, and the house [for me] to build to the Lord [is] for superior magnificence for a name and for a glory through all the earth: I will make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.

6 Nígbà náà ó pe Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ ó sì sọ fun pé kí ó kọ́ ilé fún un Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.

And he called Solomon his son, and commanded him to build the house for the Lord God of Israel.

7 Dafidi sì wí fún Solomoni pé, “Ọmọ mi, mo sì ní-in ní ọkàn mi láti kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi.

And David said to Solomon, [My] child, it was in my heart to build a house to the name of the Lord God.

8 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé, ‘Ìwọ ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀, o sì ti ja ọ̀pọ̀ ogun ńlá ńlá, kì í ṣe ìwọ ni yóò kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ mi, nítorí ìwọ ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀ púpọ̀ lórí ilẹ̀ ní ojú mi.

But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast carried on great wars: thou shalt not build a house to my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth before me.

9 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò ní ọmọ tí yóò sì jẹ́ ọkùnrin onírẹ̀lẹ̀ àti onísinmi, Èmi yóò sì fún un ní ìsinmi láti ọ̀dọ̀ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ lórí gbogbo ilẹ̀ yíká. Orúkọ rẹ̀ yóò sì máa jẹ́ Solomoni, Èmi yóò sì fi àlàáfíà àti ìdákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́ fún Israẹli lásìkò ìjọba rẹ̀.

Behold, a son shall be born to thee, he shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name [shall be] Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.

10 Òun ni ẹni náà tí yóò kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ mi. Yóò sì jẹ́ ọmọ mi, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ baba rẹ̀ èmi yóò sì fi ìdí ìtẹ́ ìjọba rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ lórí Israẹli láéláé.’

He shall build a house to my name; and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom in Israel for ever.

11 “Nísinsin yìí, ọmọ mi, kí Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí ìwọ kí ó sì ní àṣeyọrí kí o sì kọ́ ilé Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti sọ nípa rẹ.

And now, my son, the Lord shall be with thee, and prosper [thee]; and thou shalt build a house to the Lord thy God, as he spoke concerning thee.

12 Kí Olúwa kí ó fún ọ ni ọgbọ́n àti òye nígbà tí ó bá fi ọ́ ṣe aláṣẹ lórí Israẹli, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ kí ó lè pa òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run mọ́.

Only may the Lord give thee wisdom and prudence, and strengthen thee over Israel, both to keep and to do the law of the Lord thy God.

13 Nígbà náà ìwọ yóò sì ní àṣeyọrí tí ìwọ bá ṣe àkíyèsí láti mú àṣẹ àti ìdájọ́ àti òfin ti Olúwa ti fi fún Mose fun Israẹli ṣe. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ki ìwọ jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà. Má ṣè bẹ̀rù tàbí kí àyà má sì ṣe fò ọ́.

Then will he prosper [thee], if thou take heed to do the commandments and judgments which the Lord commanded Moses for Israel: be courageous and strong; fear not, nor be terrified.

14 “Èmi ti gba ìpọ́njú ńlá láti ṣe fún ilé Olúwa ọ̀kẹ́ márùn-ún tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà, àti ẹgbẹ̀rún ẹgbẹ̀rún tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà, ìwọ̀n idẹ àti irin tí ó tóbi àìní ìwọ̀n, àti ìtì igi àti òkúta. Ìwọ sì tún le fi kún wọn.

And, behold, I according to my poverty have prepared for the house of the Lord a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a million talents of silver, and brass and iron without measure; for it is abundant; and I have prepared timber and stones; and do thou add to these.

15 Ìwọ sì ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn oníṣẹ́ ènìyàn: àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà, àti àwọn oníṣọ̀nà òkúta àti àwọn agbẹ́-òkúta, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí onírúurú ọlọ́gbọ́n ènìyàn ní gbogbo onírúurú iṣẹ́.

And [of them that are] with thee do thou add to the multitude of workmen; [let there be] artificers and masons, and carpenters, and every skilful [workman] in every work;

16 Nínú wúrà, fàdákà àti idẹ àti irin oníṣọ̀nà tí kò ní ìwọ̀n. Nísinsin yìí bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́, kí Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”

in gold and silver, brass and iron, [of which] there is no number. Arise and do, and the Lord [be] with thee.

17 Nígbà náà Dafidi pa á láṣẹ fún gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà ní Israẹli láti ran Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.

And David charged all the chief men of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying],

18 Ó sì wí pé, “Ṣé kò sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ pẹ̀lú rẹ? Òun kò ha ti fi ìsinmi fún ọ lórí gbogbo ilẹ̀? Nítorí ó sì ti fi àwọn tí ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà lé mi lọ́wọ́ ó sì ti fi ìṣẹ́gun fún ilẹ̀ náà níwájú Olúwa àti níwájú àwọn ènìyàn.

[Is] not the Lord with you? and he has given you rest round about, for he has given into your hands the inhabitants of the land; and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.

19 Nísinsin yìí, ẹ ṣí ọkàn yin páyà àti àyà yín sí àti wá Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín. Bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni kọ́ ibi mímọ́ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ kí ó le gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí ti májẹ̀mú Olúwa àti ohun èlò mímọ́ tí ó jẹ́ ti Ọlọ́run, sínú ilé Olúwa tí a o kọ́ fún orúkọ Olúwa.”

Now set your hearts and souls to seek after the Lord your God: and rise, and build a sanctuary to your God to carry in the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.
