1 Chronicles 28

1 Dafidi pe gbogbo àwọn oníṣẹ́ ti Israẹli láti péjọ ní Jerusalẹmu. Àwọn ìjòyè lórí àwọn ẹ̀yà, àwọn alákòóso ìpín nínú iṣẹ́ bí ọba, àwọn alákòóso ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún àti àwọn alákòóso ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún àti àwọn oníṣẹ́ tí ó wà ní ìdí bíbojútó gbogbo àwọn ẹrù àti ohun ọ̀sìn tí ó jẹ́ ti ọba àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ààfin àwọn oníṣẹ́ ààfin, àwọn ọkùnrin alágbára àti gbogbo àwọn ògbójú jagunjagun lápapọ̀.

David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, the captains of the companies who served the king by division, the captains of thousands, the captains of hundreds, and the rulers over all the substance and possessions of the king and of his sons, with the officers and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valor, to Jerusalem.

2 Ọba Dafidi dìde dúró ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, o sì wí pé, “Fetísílẹ̀ sí mi, ẹ̀yin ará mi àti ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi. Èmi ní o ni lọ́kàn mi láti kọ́ ilé gẹ́gẹ́ bí ibi ìsinmi fún àpótí ẹ̀rí tí Olúwa fún àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ Ọlọ́run wa, èmi sì gbèrò láti kọ́ ọ.

Then David the king stood up on his feet and said, “Hear me, my brothers and my people! As for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the LORD’s covenant, and for the footstool of our God; and I had prepared for the building.

3 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ mi, nítorí ìwọ jẹ́ jagunjagun, ìwọ sì ti tàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀.’

But God said to me, ‘You shall not build a house for my name, because you are a man of war and have shed blood.’

4 “Síbẹ̀ Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli yàn mí láti gbogbo ìdílé láti jẹ́ ọba lórí Israẹli, títí láé. Ó yan Juda gẹ́gẹ́ bí olórí, àti láti ilé Juda, ó yan ìdílé mi, àti láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ baba à mí, ó tẹ́ Ẹ lọ́rùn láti fi mí ṣe ọba lórí gbogbo Israẹli.

However the LORD, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For he has chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel.

5 Nínú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ mi pẹ̀lú Olúwa ti fún mi ní púpọ̀, ó ti yan ọmọ mi Solomoni láti jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ìjọba ti Olúwa lórí Israẹli.

Of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the LORD’s kingdom over Israel.

6 Ó wí fún mi pé, Solomoni ọmọ rẹ ni ẹni tí yóò kọ́ ilé mi àti àwọn ààfin mi, nítorí tí èmi ti yàn án láti ṣe ọmọ mi èmi yóò sì jẹ́ baba a rẹ̀.

He said to me, ‘Solomon, your son, shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

7 Èmi yóò fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ̀ kalẹ̀ títí láé tí kò bá kọ̀ láti gbé àṣẹ àti òfin mi jáde, gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti ṣe é ní àsìkò yìí.

I will establish his kingdom forever if he continues to do my commandments and my ordinances, as it is today.’

8 “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, nísinsin yìí, èmi pàṣẹ fún ọ ní ojú gbogbo Israẹli àti ní ti ìpéjọpọ̀ tí Olúwa, àti ní etí ìgbọ́ Ọlọ́run wa. Ṣọ́ra kó o sì tẹ̀lé gbogbo òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ kí ìwọ kí ó le jogún ilẹ̀ dáradára yìí, kí o sì mú un lọ síwájú gẹ́gẹ́ bí ogún rẹ fún àwọn ìran ọmọ rẹ títí láé.

Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the LORD’s assembly, and in the audience of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God, that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.

9 “Àti ìwọ, ọmọ mi Solomoni, rántí Ọlọ́run baba à rẹ, kí o sì sìn ín pẹ̀lú tọkàntọkàn pẹ̀lú ìfọkànsí pẹ̀lú ọkàn tí ó pé, nítorí Olúwa ṣàwárí gbogbo ọkàn ó sì mọ gbogbo èrò. Tí ìwọ bá wá a, ìwọ yóò rí i; ṣùgbọ́n tí ìwọ bá kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀, òun yóò kọ̀ ọ́ títí láé.

You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.

10 Gbèrò báyìí nítorí tí Olúwa ti yàn ọ́ láti kọ́ ilé Olúwa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé tí a yà sí mímọ́ fún Olúwa. Jẹ́ alágbára kí ó sì ṣe iṣẹ́ náà.”

Take heed now, for the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong, and do it.”

11 Nígbà náà ni Dafidi fi àpẹẹrẹ fún Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ ti ìloro àti ti ilé Olúwa náà, kíkọ́ ọ rẹ̀, àti ti ibi ìṣúra rẹ̀, àti ti iyàrá òkè rẹ̀, àti ti ìyẹ̀wù rẹ̀ àti ti ibùjókòó àánú.

Then David gave to Solomon his son the plans for the porch of the temple, for its houses, for its treasuries, for its upper rooms, for its inner rooms, for the place of the mercy seat;

12 Ó fún un ní àwọn ètò gbogbo èyí tí ẹ̀mí ti fi sí ọkàn rẹ̀ fún ti ààfin ilé Olúwa àti gbogbo yàrá tí ó yíká fún ìṣúra ilé Ọlọ́run àti fún ìṣúra fún ohun yíyà sọ́tọ̀.

and the plans of all that he had by the Spirit, for the courts of the LORD’s house, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of God’s house, and for the treasuries of the dedicated things;

13 Ó fún un ní àwọn ìlànà fún ìpín ti àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi àti fún gbogbo iṣẹ́ ìsìn nínú ilé Olúwa àti fún gbogbo ohun èlò tí wọn ó lò nínú ìsìn rẹ̀.

also for the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the work of the service of the LORD’s house, and for all the vessels of service in the LORD’s house—

14 Ó yàn ìwọ̀n wúrà fún gbogbo ohun èlò wúrà tí a ó lò níbi oríṣìí ìsìn, àti ìwọ̀n fàdákà fún gbogbo ohun èlò fàdákà tí a ó lò fún oríṣìí ìsìn,

of gold by weight for the gold for all vessels of every kind of service, for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service;

15 ìwọ̀n wúrà fún ìdúró fìtílà àti fìtílà wọn, fún ìwọ̀n fún ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan ìdúró fìtílà àti fìtílà wọn; àti ìwọ̀n fàdákà ìdúró fìtílà fàdákà àti àwọn fìtílà rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlò ti gbogbo ìdúró fìtílà.

by weight also for the lamp stands of gold, and for its lamps, of gold, by weight for every lamp stand and for its lamps; and for the lamp stands of silver, by weight for every lamp stand and for its lamps, according to the use of every lamp stand;

16 Ìwọ̀n ti wúrà fun tábìlì, tábìlì fún àkàrà tí a yà sọ́tọ̀; ìwọ̀n fàdákà fún àwọn tábìlì fàdákà;

and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;

and the forks, the basins, and the cups, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;

and for the altar of incense, refined gold by weight; and gold for the plans for the chariot, and the cherubim that spread out and cover the ark of the LORD’s covenant.

19 “Gbogbo èyí,” ni Dafidi wí pé, “Èmi ní kíkọ sílẹ̀ láti ọwọ́ Olúwa sórí mi, ó sì fún mí ní ìmọ̀ nínú gbogbo iṣẹ́ ètò yìí.”

“All this”, David said, “I have been made to understand in writing from the LORD’s hand, even all the works of this pattern.”

20 Dafidi tún sọ fún Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Jẹ́ alágbára kí o sì gbóyà, kí o sì ṣe iṣẹ́ náà. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù tàbí dààmú, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run mi, wà pẹ̀lú rẹ. Òun kì yóò sì já ọ kule tàbí kọ ọ sílẹ̀ títí gbogbo iṣẹ́ fún ìsìn ní ti ilé Olúwa yóò fi parí.

David said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do it. Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD God, even my God, is with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you, until all the work for the service of the LORD’s house is finished.

21 Ìpín àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi ti ṣetán fún gbogbo iṣẹ́ ilé Olúwa. Gbogbo ọkùnrin tí ó ní ìfẹ́ sí i tí ó sì ní òye oríṣìíríṣìí iṣẹ́. Yóò ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́ nínú iṣẹ́ náà. Àwọn ìjòyè àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn yóò gbọ́rọ̀ sí gbogbo àṣẹ rẹ.”

Behold, there are the divisions of the priests and the Levites for all the service of God’s house. Every willing man who has skill for any kind of service shall be with you in all kinds of work. Also the captains and all the people will be entirely at your command.”
