2 Umwami Dawidi arahaguruka maze arababwira ati: “Bavandimwe bwoko bwanjye, nimutege amatwi. Nari mfite imigambi yo kubaka Inzu Isanduku y’Isezerano ry’Uhoraho izaruhukiramo, n’aho Imana yacu izakandagiza ibirenge, kandi nari namaze kwitegura kuyubaka.

3 Ariko Imana irambwira iti: ‘Si wowe uzanyubakira Inzu, kuko warwanye intambara zikomeye ukamena amaraso menshi.’

4 Nyamara Uhoraho Imana ya Isiraheli yantoranyije mu nzu ya data, kugira ngo mbe umwami w’Abisiraheli iteka ryose. Koko rero yatoranyije Yuda amugira umutware, kandi mu muryango wa Yuda atoranya inzu ya data, hanyuma Uhoraho yishimira kuntoranya mu bavandimwe banjye angira umwami w’Abisiraheli bose.

5 Uhoraho yampaye abahungu benshi, atoranyamo Salomo kugira ngo abe ari we utegeka Abisiraheli kuko Uhoraho ari we Mwami wabo nyakuri.

6 Nuko Uhoraho arambwira ati: ‘Umuhungu wawe Salomo ni we uzanyubakira Ingoro n’urugo rwayo, kuko namutoranyije kugira ngo ambere umwana, nanjye mubere Se.

7 Nagira umwete wo gukurikiza amategeko n’amabwiriza yanjye nk’uko abikurikiza ubu, nzakomeza ingoma ye iteka ryose.’

8 None rero, imbere y’Abisiraheli bose bakoraniye imbere y’Uhoraho Imana yacu uduteze amatwi, nimujye mwitonda mukurikize amategeko ye yose, ni bwo iki gihugu cyiza kizakomeza kuba icyanyu, ndetse mukazagisigira n’abana banyu ho umurage, kikaba gakondo yabo iteka ryose.

9 “Naho wowe Salomo mwana wanjye, umenye Imana yanjye, uyikorere utizigamye kandi ubikuye ku mutima. Uhoraho agenzura imitima akamenya ibyo abantu batekereza. Numushaka uzamubona, ariko numureka na we azakureka iteka ryose.

10 Kuva ubu umenye ko Uhoraho yagutoranyije kugira ngo umwubakire Ingoro azabamo. Ngaho rero ba intwari kandi ukore.”

Amabwiriza yerekeye Ingoro y’Imana

11 Nuko Dawidi aha umuhungu we Salomo igishushanyombonera cy’Ingoro n’ibyumba byayo, n’iby’ububiko n’ibyo hejuru n’iby’imbere, n’Icyumba kirimo Isanduku.

12 Amuha kandi n’igishushanyombonera cy’ibyo yateganyaga kubaka, ni ukuvuga urugo rw’Ingoro y’Uhoraho n’amazu yo muri rwo, n’inzu y’ububiko bw’umutungo w’Ingoro, n’inzu yo kubikamo ibintu byeguriwe Imana.

13 Amuha amabwiriza yerekeye ibyiciro by’abatambyi n’iby’Abalevi, n’ayerekeye imirimo yo mu Ngoro y’Uhoraho, n’ay’ibikoresho byo muri iyo Ngoro.

14 Amwereka uburemere bw’izahabu bukwiranye na buri gikoresho cy’izahabu kizakoreshwa imirimo inyuranye, n’uburemere bw’ifeza bukwiranye na buri gikoresho cy’ifeza kizakoreshwa imirimo inyuranye.

15 Amwereka uburemere bw’izahabu bukwiranye n’ibitereko by’amatara by’izahabu, n’uburemere bw’izahabu bukwiranye na buri gitereko cy’amatara n’amatara yacyo. Amwereka kandi uburemere bw’ifeza bukwiranye n’ibitereko by’amatara by’ifeza, n’uburemere bw’ifeza bukwiranye na buri gitereko cy’amatara n’amatara yacyo.

16 Amwereka uburemere bukwiranye na buri meza y’izahabu yo gushyiraho imigati yatuwe Imana, n’uburemere bukwiranye na buri meza y’ifeza.

17 Amwereka n’uburemere bw’izahabu inoze bukwiranye n’amakanya, n’ubukwiranye n’amasahani, n’ubukwiranye na buri gikombe gikozwe mu izahabu inoze, n’ubwa buri gikombe gikozwe mu ifeza inoze.

18 Amwereka uburemere bw’izahabu inoze bukwiranye n’igicaniro cy’imibavu. Amuha kandi n’igishushanyombonera cy’igareririho abakerubi bacuzwe mu izahabu, barambuye amababa yabo bagatwikīra Isanduku y’Isezerano ry’Uhoraho.

19 Nuko Dawidi aravuga ati: “Ibyo byose byanditswe n’Uhoraho, ampa gusobanukirwa no kumenya ibikwiye gukorwa byose biri ku gishushanyombonera.”

20 Dawidi abwira umuhungu we Salomo ati: “Komera kandi ube intwari, ukore. Ntugire ubwoba cyangwa ngo ucike intege, kuko Uhoraho Imana ari we Mana yanjye ari kumwe nawe. Ntazagutererana cyangwa ngo akuzibukire, kugeza ubwo imirimo yose yo kubaka Ingoro ye izaba irangiye.

21 Dore kandi ibyiciro by’abatambyi n’Abalevi, biteguye kugufasha imirimo yose yo ku Ngoro y’Imana. Byongeye kandi uri kumwe n’abantu b’impuguke bibwiriza gukora bazakunganira mu mirimo yose, kandi abakuru bose hamwe na rubanda rwose bazakurikiza amabwiriza uzabaha.”

Abantu batanga impano zo kubaka Ingoro

1 Nuko Umwami Dawidi abwira abakoraniye aho bose ati: “Umwana wanjye Salomo ari we Imana yatoranyije, aracyari muto kandi si inararibonye. Nyamara umurimo agomba kurangiza ni munini, kuko iyo Ngoro igiye kubakwa atari iy’umuntu, ahubwo ari iy’Uhoraho Imana.

2 Nakoze uko nshoboye kose ntegura ibyo kubaka Ingoro y’Imana. Nashatse izahabu yo kuzakoramo ibigomba gukorwa mu izahabu, n’ifeza yo kuzakoramo ibigomba kuyikorwamo, n’umuringa wo kuzakoramo ibigomba kuwukorwamo, n’icyuma cyo kuzakoramo ibigomba kugikorwamo. Nateguye ibiti byo kuzakoramo ibigomba gukorwa mu biti, ntegura n’amabuye yitwa onigisi n’andi yo gutāka, n’ay’umukara n’ay’amabara anyuranye, n’amabuye y’agaciro y’amoko anyuranye, n’andi mabuye menshi arabagirana.

3 Byongeye kandi kubera ko nitangiye Ingoro y’Imana yanjye, umutungo wanjye bwite w’izahabu n’ifeza, na wo ndawutanze kugira ngo ukoreshwe ku Ngoro y’Imana yanjye, nywongeye ku byo nashatse byose byo kubaka Ingoro nziranenge ari byo ibi:

4 toni ijana z’izahabu ya Ofiri, na toni magana abiri na mirongo ine z’ifeza inoze yo komeka ku nkuta z’Ingoro,

5 kugira ngo izahabu ikorwemo ibigomba kuyikorwamo, n’ifeza ikorwemo ibigomba kuyikorwamo, n’ibindi bintu bizakorwa n’abanyabukorikori. None ni nde muri mwe wiyemeje kugira icyo atura Uhoraho?”

6 Nuko abakuru b’amazu n’abakuru b’imiryango y’Abisiraheli, n’abatware b’ingabo ibihumbi n’ab’amagana, n’abari bashinzwe imirimo y’ibwami batangana ubwuzu.

7 Batanga toni ijana na mirongo irindwi z’izahabu, n’ibikoroto ibihumbi icumi by’izahabu, na toni zisāga magana atatu z’ifeza, na toni zigera kuri magana atandatu z’umuringa, na toni zisāga ibihumbi bitatu z’icyuma, kugira ngo bikoreshwe imirimo yo ku Ngoro y’Imana.

8 Abari bafite amabuye y’agaciro bayashyikiriza Yehiyeli ukomoka kuri Gerishoni, kugira ngo ayashyire mu mutungo w’Ingoro y’Uhoraho.

9 Abantu bishimira izo mpano batanganye ubwuzu. Koko rero bazituye Uhoraho bafite umutima utunganye. Umwami Dawidi arabyishimira cyane.

Isengesho rya Dawidi

10 Nuko Dawidi asingiza Uhoraho ari imbere y’ikoraniro, agira ati: “Uhoraho Mana ya sogokuruza Isiraheli, usingizwe iteka ryose.

11 Uhoraho, ugukomera n’ububasha n’ikuzo, n’icyubahiro n’ubwiza ni ibyawe. Koko ibiri mu ijuru no ku isi, byose ni ibyawe. Uhoraho mwami ukomeye, ubeshaho ibyaremwe byose.

12 Ubukungu n’ikuzo ni wowe ubitanga kandi ni wowe ugenga byose. Ni wowe nyiri ububasha n’imbaraga, uzamura uwo ushaka kandi ukamukomeza.

13 None rero Mana yacu, turagushima dusingiza izina ryawe rihebuje.

14 “Jyewe n’abantu banjye nta cyo turi cyo byatuma tubasha kugutura amaturo angana atya. Byose ni wowe bikomokaho, none tugutuye ku byo waduhaye.

15 Imbere yawe turi abashyitsi n’abasuhuke nk’uko ba sogokuruza bari bameze. Ubuzima bwacu bwo kuri iyi si bushira vuba nk’igicucu, nta byiringiro.

16 Uhoraho Mana yacu, ibi bikoresho byose twateguye kugira ngo tukubakire Ingoro ku bw’izina ryawe riziranenge, ni wowe bikomokaho kandi byose ni ibyawe.

17 Mana yanjye, nzi ko ugenzura ibyo umuntu atekereza, ukishimira ibitunganye. Ibi bintu byose naguhaye, nabigutuye ku bushake kandi mfite umutima utunganye. Niboneye uko abantu bawe bakoraniye hano bagutuye amaturo babishaka kandi babyishimiye.

18 Uhoraho Mana ya ba sogokuruza Aburahamu na Izaki na Yakobo, ujye ushoboza abantu bawe gukomeza kuba indahemuka kandi ubatoze kukuyoboka.

19 Byongeye kandi, umwana wanjye Salomo umuhe kwitanga abikuye ku mutima, kugira ngo akurikize amabwiriza yawe n’ibyo wategetse n’amateka yawe kandi yubake Ingoro nateguriye ibi byose.”

20 Dawidi abwira ikoraniro ati: “Nimusingize Uhoraho Imana yanyu.” Nuko abantu bose basingiza Uhoraho Imana ya ba sekuruza, barapfukama baramya Uhoraho bikubita hasi bubamye imbere ye n’imbere y’umwami.

Salomo aba umwami

21 Bukeye bwaho batambira Uhoraho ibitambo by’umusangiro n’ibitambo bikongorwa n’umuriro. Batambye ibimasa igihumbi n’amasekurume y’intama igihumbi, n’abana b’intama igihumbi, byose bituranywe n’amaturo asukwa. Ibitambo by’umusangiro byari byinshi, bihaza Abisiraheli bose bari aho.

22 Uwo munsi barariye kandi banywera imbere y’Uhoraho banezerewe cyane. Bongera kwemeza ko Salomo mwene Dawidi ari we mwami, bamusīgira amavuta imbere y’Uhoraho kugira ngo abategeke. Sadoki na we bamusīga amavuta kugira ngo abe umutambyi.

23 Salomo yicara ku ntebe ya cyami y’Uhoraho, asimbura se Dawidi. Nuko aganza ku ngoma, Abisiraheli bose baramuyoboka.

24 Abayobozi bose n’abantu b’intwari ndetse n’abahungu bose b’Umwami Dawidi, bayoboka Umwami Salomo.

25 Uhoraho akomeza Salomo cyane imbere y’Abisiraheli bose, amuha ikuzo riruta iry’abandi bami b’Abisiraheli bamubanjirije.

Urupfu rwa Dawidi

26 Dawidi mwene Yese yabaye umwami w’Abisiraheli bose.

27 Yamaze imyaka mirongo ine ari umwami w’Abisiraheli, amara imyaka irindwi ari ku ngoma i Heburoni, n’imyaka mirongo itatu n’itatu i Yeruzalemu.

28 Yapfuye ageze mu za bukuru, yisazira neza ari umukungu n’umunyacyubahiro. Umuhungu we Salomo amusimbura ku ngoma.

29 Ibikorwa by’Umwami Dawidi, ibyabanje n’ibyaherutse, byanditswe mu gitabo cy’umuhanuzi Samweli, no mu gitabo cy’umuhanuzi Natani, no mu gitabo cy’umuhanuzi Gadi.

30 Havugwamo kandi n’iby’ubutegetsi bwe n’ubutwari bwe, n’ibyamubayeho byose n’ibyabaye kuri Isiraheli, no ku ngoma zose z’ibihugu byari bimukikije.

Salomo asaba Imana ubwenge

1 Salomo mwene Dawidi akomera mu bwami bwe, Uhoraho Imana ye amuba iruhande amugira umwami w’agatangaza.

2 Salomo avugana n’Abisiraheli bose, abagaba b’ingabo ibihumbi n’ab’amagana, n’abacamanza n’abatware bose b’imiryango.

3 Salomo ajyana n’iryo koraniro ryose ahasengerwaga ku musozi wa Gibeyoni, kuko ari ho hari hashinze Ihema ry’ibonaniro, rya rindi Musa umugaragu w’Uhoraho yari yarakoreye mu butayu.

4 Dawidi yari yarazanye Isanduku y’Isezerano ayikuye i Kiriyati-Yeyarimu ayigeza i Yeruzalemu, ayishyira aho yari yarayiteguriye mu ihema.

5 Aho imbere y’ihema ry’Uhoraho i Gibeyoni yari yahashyize urutambiro rw’umuringa, rwakozwe na Besalēli mwene Uri mwene Huri. Aho ni ho Salomo n’abari bamuherekeje bose baje kwambariza Uhoraho.

6 Salomo yegera urutambiro rw’umuringa rwari imbere y’Ihema ry’Ibonaniro, maze atamba ibitambo igihumbi bikongorwa n’umuriro.

7 Iryo joro Imana ibonekera Salomo iramubwira iti: “Nsaba icyo ushaka ndakiguha.”

8 Salomo asubiza Imana ati: “Wagiriye neza data Dawidi none dore wampaye kumusimbura.

9 Ubu rero Uhoraho Mana, uzuza Isezerano wagiriye data Dawidi kuko wampaye kuyobora abantu benshi cyane.

10 Ndagusaba ubwenge n’ubushishozi kugira ngo nshobore kuyobora neza aba bantu. Naho ubundi sinabasha gutegeka abantu bawe bangana batya.”

11 Imana ibwira Salomo iti: “Ntabwo wigeze usaba ubutunzi n’ubukire, cyangwa ikuzo cyangwa urupfu rw’abanzi bawe cyangwa kurama. Ahubwo ukurikije icyifuzo cyawe wasabye ubwenge n’ubushishozi, kugira ngo ushobore gutegeka abantu naguhaye ngo ubabere umwami.

12 Ni yo mpamvu nzaguha ubwenge n’ubushishozi, ndetse nzakongereraho ubutunzi n’ubukire n’ikuzo, ku buryo nta wundi mwami mu bakubanjirije n’abazagukurikira uzahwana nawe.”

Ubukungu bwa Salomo

13 Nuko Salomo ava ahasengerwaga i Gibeyoni ahari Ihema ry’ibonaniro, asubira i Yeruzalemu akomeza gutegeka Abisiraheli.

14 Salomo akoranya amagare y’intambara n’amafarasi. Yari afite amagare igihumbi na magana ane, n’amafarasi ibihumbi cumi na bibiri. Amagare n’amafarasi amwe ayasigarana iwe i Yeruzalemu, andi bayajyana mu mijyi yagombaga kubamo.

15 Ku ngoma y’Umwami Salomo, ifeza n’izahabu zabaye nyinshi i Yeruzalemu zinganya ubwinshi n’amabuye yaho, imbaho z’amasederi na zo zanganyaga ubwinshi n’imivumu yo ku misozi migufi y’iburengerazuba.

16 Amafarasi ya Salomo yatumizwaga mu Misiri n’i Kuwe. Abayagurishaga umwami bayaranguriraga i Kuwe.

17 Amagare y’intambara yatumizwaga mu Misiri, rimwe ryagurwaga ibikoroto by’ifeza magana atandatu, naho ifarasi ikagurwa ibikoroto by’ifeza ijana na mirongo itanu. Abo bacuruzi kandi batumirizaga amagare n’amafarasi, abami bose b’Abaheti n’abo muri Siriya.

Salomo ategura iyubakwa ry’Ingoro

18 Salomo yiyemeza kubakisha Ingoro y’Uhoraho n’iye bwite.

1 Salomo ashyiraho abikorezi ibihumbi mirongo irindwi, n’abo gucukura amabuye ku musozi ibihumbi mirongo inani, n’ibihumbi bitatu na magana atandatu bo guhagarikira imirimo.

2 Salomo yohereza intumwa zibwira Hiramu umwami w’i Tiri ziti: “Woherereje Data Dawidi imigogo y’amasederi kugira ngo yiyubakire ingoro, nanjye ungenzereze utyo.

3 Ubu ngiye kubakira Uhoraho Imana yanjye Ingoro. Bazayoserezamo imibavu, bazayimurikiramo imigati ubudasiba, kandi bayituriremo ibitambo bikongorwa n’umuriro mu gitondo na nimugoroba, no ku isabato no mu mboneko ya buri kwezi, no ku yindi minsi mikuru y’Uhoraho Imana yacu. Ibyo bizakorwa iteka ryose muri Isiraheli.

4 Byongeye kandi Ingoro ngiye kubaka igomba kuba nini, kuko Imana yacu iruta izindi mana zose.

5 Nyamara ntawashobora kubakira Imana ingoro, kuko n’ubwo ijuru ari rinini ntirikwirwamo. Nanjye ubwanjye siniyemeza kuyubakira Ingoro, ahubwo ni ahantu ho kuyitambira ibitambo.

6 Nuko rero unyoherereze umuhanga wo gutunganya izahabu n’ifeza n’umuringa n’ibyuma, kandi uzi kuboha imyenda itukura n’iy’umuhemba n’iy’isine. Agomba kuba azi umwuga wo guharagata amashusho, maze azafatanye n’abahanga bo mu Buyuda n’i Yeruzalemu data Dawidi yansigiye.

7 Unyoherereze n’imigogo y’amasederi n’amasipure, n’indi migogo myiza y’ibiti byo muri Libani, kuko nzi neza ko abagaragu bawe bamenyereye gutema ibiti byo muri Libani. Nzohereza n’abagaragu banjye bafatanye n’abawe

8 maze bantemere ibiti byinshi, kuko ingoro nshaka kubakisha izaba ari nini kandi ari nziza cyane.

9 Abagaragu bawe bazatema ibiti, nzabaha toni ibihumbi bibiri by’ifu y’ingano, na toni ibihumbi bibiri by’ingano za bushoki, na litiro ibihumbi magana ane ya divayi, na litiro ibihumbi magana ane z’amavuta y’iminzenze.”

10 Hiramu umwami wa Tiri yandikira Salomo ati: “Uhoraho yakugize umwami w’abantu be kuko abakunda.

11 Nihasingizwe Uhoraho Imana ya Isiraheli waremye ijuru n’isi, kuko yahaye so Umwami Dawidi umwana w’umunyabwenge. Yaguhaye ubwitonzi n’ubushishozi kugira ngo wubake Ingoro y’Uhoraho n’iyawe bwite.

12 None nkoherereje umuhanga uzi gushishoza witwa Huramu,

13 nyina akomoka kuri Dani naho se ni Umunyatiri. Huramu uwo azi gutunganya izahabu n’ifeza, n’umuringa n’icyuma, n’amabuye n’ibiti, n’imyenda y’amabara y’umutuku n’ay’umuhemba, n’ay’isine n’ay’umweru. Ashoboye umwuga wo guharagata amashusho, ndetse n’ibindi mwamusaba gukora yabikora. Azafatanya n’abahanga bawe n’aba databuja so Dawidi.

14 None databuja, utwoherereze ingano za nkungu n’iza bushoki, na divayi n’amavuta wadusezeranyije.

15 Twebwe tuzajya mu bisi bya Libani gutema ibiti byose ukeneye, maze tubikoherereze tubinyujije mu nyanja bihambiriye bigere i Yope. Nawe uzajya ubikura aho ubijyane i Yeruzalemu.”

Iyubakwa ry’Ingoro y’Uhoraho

16 Salomo abarura abanyamahanga bose bari mu gihugu cya Isiraheli, akurikije ibarura ryakoreshejwe na se Dawidi. Bari ibihumbi ijana na mirongo itanu na bitatu na magana atandatu.

17 Afatamo ibihumbi mirongo irindwi b’abikorezi, n’ibihumbi mirongo inani bo gucukura amabuye ku musozi, n’abandi ibihumbi bitatu na magana atandatu bo guhagarikira imirimo.

1 Salomo atangira kubaka Ingoro y’Uhoraho i Yeruzalemu ku musozi wa Moriya,ku mbuga ya Arawunaw’Umuyebuzi. Aho ni ho se Dawidi yari yarateguye kubera ko ari ho Uhoraho yamubonekeye.

2 Yatangiye imirimo yo kubaka mu kwezi kwa kabiri, mu mwaka wa kane ari ku ngoma.

3 Dore ingero z’Ingoro Salomo yubakiye Imana: uburebure bwari metero mirongo itatu, ubugari bukaba metero icumi.

4 Uburebure bw’ibaraza ry’Ingoro bwari metero icumi bungana n’ubugari bw’iyo Ngoro, naho ubugarike bwari metero mirongo itandatu. Nuko imbere mu Ngoro ahomeka izahabu inoze.

5 Inkuta z’Icyumba kizira inenge zari zubakishijwe imbaho z’amasipure zometseho izahabu inoze, maze ashushanyaho imikindo n’imitako imeze nk’iminyururu.

6 Icyo Cyumba agitākisha amabuye y’agaciro. Naho izahabu yakoreshaga yaturukaga i Paruvayimu.

7 Mu Ngoro ahomeka izahabu, ayomeka ku nkingi no mu rwinjiriro, no ku nkuta no ku nzugi, kandi ku nkuta ashushanyaho abakerubi.

8 Hanyuma yubaka Icyumba kizira inenge cyari gifite uburebure bungana n’ubugari bw’Ingoro. Uburebure bwari metero icumi n’ubugari ari metero icumi. Acyomekaho izahabu ipima toni makumyabiri.

9 Uburemere bw’imisumari yakoreshejwe bwanganaga na garama magana atanu y’izahabu. Ibyumba byo hejuru na byo abyomekaho izahabu.

10 Mu Cyumba kizira inenge cyane ahashyira amashusho abiri y’abakerubi, ayomekaho izahabu.

11-12 Buri baba ry’umukerubi ryari rifite metero ebyiri n’igice z’uburebure. Ibaba rimwe rya buri mukerubi ryakoraga ku rukuta rw’Ingoro, irindi baba na ryo rigakora ku ry’undi mukerubi, ku buryo amababa y’abo bakerubi bombi yari afite uburebure bwa metero icumi.

13 Abo bakerubi bari bahagaze berekeye Icyumba kizira inenge.

14 Salomo aboha umwenda wo gukinga Icyumba kizira inenge cyane, ufite amabara y’isine n’umuhemba n’umutuku n’umweru, awufumaho amashusho y’abakerubi.

Inkingi z’imiringa n’urutambiro

15 Salomo akora inkingi ebyiri azishyira ku ibaraza ry’Ingoro. Buri nkingi yari ifite metero icyenda z’ubuhagarike, ifite n’umutwe uyiteretseho wari ufite metero ebyiri n’igice.

16 Akora imitako imeze nk’iminyururu isobekeranye, ayishyira ku mitwe y’izo nkingi. Muri iyo minyururu ashyiramo amashusho ijana y’imikomamanga.

17 Ashinga izo nkingi ku ibaraza ry’Ingoro. Inkingi yo mu majyepfo ayita Yakini, iyo mu majyaruguru ayita Bowazi.
