1Zvino mambo Dhavhidhi akati kuungano yose, Mwanakomana wangu Soromoni, wakatsaurwa iye oga naMwari, achiri muduku asine simba, asi basa iguru; nekuti imba huru haizi yomunhu, asi ndeyaJehovha Mwari.
1Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great: for the palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.
2Zvino ini nesimba rangu rose ndakagadzirira imba yaMwari wangu ndarama yokuumba nayo zvinhu zvendarama, nesirivha yezvinhu zvesirivha, nendarira yezvinhu zvendarira, namatare ezvinhu zvamatare, namatanda ezvinhu zvamatanda; nezvibwe zveonikisi, nezvibwe zvokuisa mukati, nezvibwe zvoukomba, nezvina mavara-mavara, namamwe marudzi mazhinji ezvibwe zvinokosha, namabwe machena akawanda.
2Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for things to be made of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and the brass for things of brass, the iron for things of iron, and wood for things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colors, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.
3Uyezve, zvandakada zvikuru imba yaMwari wangu, ini zvandine fuma pachangu yendarama nesirivha, ndinozvipa imba yaMwari wangu, ndichiwedzera pane zvose zvandakagadzirira imba tsvene;
3Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house.
4zvinoti matarenda endarama ane zviuru zvitatu, endarama yeOfiri, namatarenda akanatswa esirivha ane zviuru zvinomwe, kufukidza madziro eimba nazvo;
4Even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses withal:
5nendarama yokuumba nayo zvinhu zvendarama, nesirivha yezvinhu zvesirivha, nezvamabasa ose anofanira kuitwa namaoko avapfuri. Zvino ndianiko anoda kupa nhendo dzake nomoyo wake wose kuna Jehovha?
5The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the LORD?
6Ipapo machinda edzimba dzamadzibaba, namachinda amarudzi alsiraeri, navakuru vezviuru navamazana, pamwechete navatariri vamabasa amambo vakapa nomoyo wavo wose;
6Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king's work, offered willingly,
7vakapa kubata basa reimba yaMwari ndarama, matarenda ane zviuru zvishanu, namadhariki ane zviuru zvine gumi, nesirivha, matarenda ane zviuru zvine gumi, nendarira, matarenda ane zviuru zvine gumi nezvisere, namatare, matarenda ane zviuru zvine zana.
7And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.
8Vakanga vane zvibwe zvinokosha vakazvipa zviiswe pafuma yeimba yaJehovha, zvichitarirwa naJehieri muGerishoni.
8And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of the LORD, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.
9Ipapo vanhu vakafara zvavakapa nomoyo wose, nekuti vakapa Jehovha nomoyo wose wakarurama; mambo Dhavhidhiwo akafara nomufaro mukuru.
9Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
10Zvino Dhavhidhi akakudza Jehovha pamberi peungano yose; Dhavhidhi akati, Imwi mukudzwe, Jehovha, Mwari waIsiraeri baba vedu nokusingaperi.
10Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever and ever.
11Ukuru ndobwenyu, Jehovha, nesimba, nokubwinya, nokukunda, noumambo, nekuti zvose zviri kudenga nezviri pasi ndezvenyu; ushe ndobwenyu, Jehovha, makakudzwa muri musoro wezvose.
11Thine, O LORD is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.
12fuma nokukudzwa zvinobva kwamuri, imwi munobata ushe pamusoro pezvose; paruoko rwenyu pane simba noushe, ruoko rwenyu ndirwo runokurisa nokupa vose simba.
12Both riches and honor come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.
13Saka zvino Mwari wedu, tinokuvongai nokurumbidza zita renyu rinobwinya.
13Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.
14Asi ini ndini ani, navanhu vangu chinyiko, zvatingagona kupa nomoyo wose kudai? Nekuti zvose zvinobva kwamuri, takangokupai zvakabva paruoko rwenyu.
14But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.
15Nekuti tiri vaeni pamberi penyu navatorwa, sezvakanga zvakaita madzibaba edu; mazuva edu panyika akafanana nomumvuri, hakune tariro.
15For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.
16Jehovha Mwari wedu, izvi zvose zvakawanda zvatakagadzira kukuvakirai imba yezita renyu dzvene, zvinobva paruoko rwenyu; zvose ndezvenyu;
16O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand, and is all thine own.
17ndinozivawo Mwari wangu, kuti imwi munoidzawo moyo, munofanira kurarama. Kana ndirini, ndakapa izvi zvose nomoyo wakarurama nomoyo wose; zvino ndakafara ndichiona vanhu venyu vari pano vachikupai nomoyo wose.
17I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.
18Jehovha Mwari waAbhurahamu, nalsaka, naIsiraeri, madzibaba edu, garisai izvi nokusingaperi pandangariro dzemifungo yemoyo yavanhu venyu; rereudzai moyo yavo kwamuri,
18O LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee:
19ipai Soromoni mwanakomana wangu moyo wakarurama, kuti achengete mirairo yenyu, nezvipupuriro zvenyu, nezvamakatema, kuti aite zvinhu izvi zvose, avake imba huru yandakagadzirira zvose.
19And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for the which I have made provision.
20Ipapo Dhavhidhi akati kuungano yose, Zvino kudzai Jehovha Mwari wenyu. Ipapo ungano yakakudza Jehovha Mwari wamadzibaba avo, vakakotamisa misoro yavo, vakanamata kuna Jehovha namambo.
20And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the LORD your God. And all the congregation blessed the LORD God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the LORD, and the king.
21Vakabayira Jehovha zvibayiro, vakauya nezvipiriso zvinopiswa kuna Jehovha mangwanani pazuva rakatevera, zvaiti: nzombe dzine chiuru chimwe, namakondobwe ane chiuru chimwe, namakwaiana ane chiuru chimwe, pamwechete nezvipiriso zvazvo zvinodururwa, nezvibayiro zvakawanda zvavaIsiraeri vose;
21And they sacrificed sacrifices unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings unto the LORD, on the morrow after that day, even a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel:
22vakadya, vakamwa pamberi paJehovha nomufaro mukuru nezuva iro. Vakaita Soromoni mwanakomana waDhavhidhi mambo rwechipiri, vakamuzodzera Jehovha ave mutungamiriri, naZadhoki ave mupristi.
22And did eat and drink before the LORD on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him unto the LORD to be the chief governor, and Zadok to be priest.
23Ipapo Soromoni akagara pachigaro choushe chaJehovha akava mambo panzvimbo yaDhavhidhi baba vake, akafambiswa zvakanaka; vaIsiraeri vose vakamuteerera.
23Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.
24Machinda ose, navanhu vose vane simba, navanakomana vose vamambo Dhavhidhi vakazviisa pasi pamambo Soromoni.
24And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king.
25Jehovha akakudza Soromoni kwazvo-kwazvo pamberi pavaIsiraeri vose, akamupa umambo hwakakura, husina kumbopiwa mumwe mambo waIsiraeri wakamutangira.
25And the LORD magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
26Zvino Dhavhidhi mwanakomana waJese akabata valsiraeri vose paushe hwake.
26Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
27Nguva yaakabata ushe hwaIsiraeri aiva makore makumi mana; wakabata ushe paHebhuroni makore manomwe, napaJerusaremu akabata ushe makore makumi matatu namatatu.
27And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
28Akazofa akwegura kwazvo, ava namakore mazhinji, nefuma, nokukudzwa; Soromoni mwanakomana wake akabata ushe panzvimbo yake.
28And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.
29Zvino mabasa amambo Dhavhidhi, okutanga nookupedzisira, tarirai, akanyorwa pamashoko omuoni Samueri, napamashoko omupristi Natani, napamashoko omuoni Gadhi;
29Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,
30pamwechete namashoko oushe hwake, nesimba rake, nezvaakaitirwa panguva dzose, iye navaIsiraeri, noushe hwose bwedzimwe nyika.
30With all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.
