1 Mafumu 9 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

9 ¹Pamene Solomo anatsiriza kumanga nyumba ya Atate wathu, nyumba yaufumu, ndi zonse zimene anafuna kuchita, ²Atate wathu anamuonekera kachiwiri, monga momwe anamuonekera ku Gibiyoni.

³Ndipo Atate wathu anati kwa iye, “Ndamva pemphero lako ndi pembedzero lako limene wapereka pamaso panga. Ndapatula nyumba iyi imene wamanga, kuti ndiyikepo dzina langa mpaka muyaya; maso anga ndi mtima wanga zidzakhala pamenepo nthawi zonse. ⁴Iwe, ngati udzayenda pamaso panga monga momwe anayendera atate wako Davide, ndi mtima wonse ndi kuona mtima, kuchita zonse zimene ndinakulamula ndi kusunga malamulo anga ndi maweruzo anga, ⁵ndidzakhazikitsa mpando wako waufumu pa Isiraeli mpaka muyaya, monga ndinalonjeza Davide atate wako, ndinati, ‘Sudzasowa munthu pa mpando waufumu wa Isiraeli.’

⁶“Koma ngati iwe kapena ana ako mudzatembenuka kuchoka kwa Ine, mulephera kusunga malamulo ndi malangizo amene ndinakupatsani, nmupita kukatumikira milungu ina ndi kuyigwadira, ⁷ndidzadula Isiraeli kuwachotsa m'dziko limene ndinawapatsa, ndipo ndidzachotsa pamaso panga nyumba iyi yopatulika imene ndinaipatula kwa dzina langa; ndipo Isiraeli adzakhala mwambi ndi chinthu chonyozeka pakati pa mitundu yonse ya anthu. ⁸Nyumba iyi idzakhala bwinja; onse odutsa adzadabwa ndi kuliza mluzu, nafunsa kuti, ‘Chifukwa chiyani Yehova anachitira dziko ili ndi nyumba iyi zotere?’ ⁹Adzayankha kuti, ‘Chifukwa anasiya Yehova Mulungu wawo, amene anatulutsa makolo awo m'dziko la Igupto, nagwiritsitsa milungu ina, nayigwadira, nayitumikira, choncho Yehova anawabweretsera tsoka lonseli.’”

Mizinda, Ntchito, ndi Zombo za Solomo

¹⁰Patapita zaka makumi awiri, Solomo anamaliza kumanga nyumba ziwirizo, nyumba ya Atate wathu ndi nyumba yaufumu. ¹¹Hiramu mfumu ya Turo anapatsa Solomo mitengo ya mkungudza, mitengo ya payini, ndi golidi zimene anafuna. Ndipo mfumu Solomo anapatsa Hiramu midzi makumi awiri m'chigawo cha Galileya. ¹²Hiramu anachoka ku Turo kudzaona midzi imene Solomo anamupatsa, koma sinamkondweretse. ¹³Iye anafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndi midzi yotani imene wandipatsa iyi, m'bale wanga?” Choncho anayitcha dziko la Kabuli, limene ndi dzina lake mpaka lero. ^a a v13 Kabuli limamveka ngati mau achihebri otanthauza “ngati chabe” kapena “wopanda phindu” — ndi mmene Hiramu ananenera za midziyo mosapita m'mbali. ¹⁴Hiramu anali atatumiza kwa mfumu golidi wokwana matani pafupifupi anayi.

¹⁵Iyi ndiyo mbiri ya ntchito yokakamiza imene mfumu Solomo anakakamiza anthu kuti aigwire pomanga nyumba ya Atate wathu, nyumba yake yaufumu, Milo, linga la Yerusalemu, Hazori, Megido, ndi Gezeri. ¹⁶Farao mfumu ya Igupto anali atakwera, nalanda Gezeri, nawutentha ndi moto, napha Akanani okhala mmenemo, nawupereka ngati malowolo kwa mwana wake wamkazi, mkazi wa Solomo. ¹⁷Choncho Solomo anamanganso Gezeri, ndi Beti-horoni wa Kumunsi, ¹⁸Baalati, ndi Tamara m'chipululu, mkati mwa dziko, ¹⁹ndi mizinda yonse ya nkhokwe za Solomo, mizinda ya magaleta ake ndi okwera pa akavalo ake, ndi chilichonse chimene anafuna kumanga mu Yerusalemu, ku Lebanoni, ndi m'dziko lonse limene analamulira. ²⁰Anthu onse amene anatsala a mitundu ya Aamori, Ahiti, Aperizi, Ahivi, ndi Ayebusi, amene sanali Aisiraeli, ²¹ndiwo zidzukulu zawo zimene zinatsala pambuyo pawo m'dziko, zimene Aisiraeli sanathe kuwononga kotheratu, Solomo anawakakamiza kugwira ntchito yaukapolo, monga alili mpaka lero. ²²Koma Solomo sanasandutse Mwisiraeli aliyense kukhala kapolo; iwo anali asilikali ake, antchito ake, nduna zake, atsogoleri ake, akulu a ankhondo, ndi akulu a magaleta ake ndi okwera pa akavalo ake. ²³Awa ndiwo anali akulu a nduna za Solomo amene anayang'anira ntchitoyo: 550 amene analamulira anthu amene anagwira ntchito.

²⁴Mwana wamkazi wa Farao atasamuka mu Mzinda wa Davide kupita ku nyumba imene Solomo anamumangira, pamenepo anamanga Milo.

²⁵Katatu pa chaka Solomo anapereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano paguwa lansembe limene anamangira Atate wathu, nafukiza lubani pamaso pa Atate wathu pamodzi ndi nsembezo. Choncho anatsiriza kumanga nyumbayo.

²⁶Mfumu Solomo anamanganso zombo ku Ezioni-geberi, pafupi ndi Eloti m'mphepete mwa Nyanja Yofiira, m'dziko la Edomu. ²⁷Ndipo Hiramu anatumiza antchito ake pamodzi ndi zombozo, oyendetsa zombo amene anadziwa za pa nyanja, kugwira ntchito limodzi ndi antchito a Solomo. ²⁸Iwo anayenda pa nyanja kupita ku Ofiri, natenga kumeneko golidi wokwana matani pafupifupi khumi ndi asanu ndi mmodzi, naupereka kwa mfumu Solomo.
