28 Davide anayitana akuluakulu onse a Israeli kuti asonkhane ku Yerusalemu: akuluakulu a mafuko, olamulira magulu a ntchito ya mfumu, olamulira ankhondo 1,000, ndi olamulira ankhondo 100, ndiponso akuluakulu onse osunga katundu ndi ziweto za mfumu ndi ana ake, pamodzinso ndi akuluakulu a ku nyumba yaufumu, anthu amphamvu ndi asilikali onse olimba mtima.

² Mfumu Davide inayimirira ndipo inati: “Tamverani abale anga ndi anthu anga. Ine ndinali ndi maganizo omanga nyumba monga malo okhalamo Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova, malo oyikapo mapazi a Mulungu wathu, ndipo ndinakonza ndondomeko yomangira nyumbayo.” ³ Koma Mulungu anati kwa ine, “Usandimangire nyumba chifukwa ndiwe munthu wankhondo ndipo wakhala ukukhetsa magazi.”

⁴ “Komabe Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli anasankha ine pakati pa onse a banja langa kukhala mfumu ya Israeli kwamuyaya. Iye anasankha Yuda kukhala mtsogoleri, ndipo pa banja la Yuda anasankha banja langa. Pakati pa ana aamuna a abambo anga, kunamukomera Iye kundikhazika mfumu ya Aisraeli onse. ⁵ Pa ana anga ambiri onse amene Yehova wandipatsa, Iye wasankha mwana wanga Solomoni kuti akhale pa mpando waufumu wa ufumu wa Yehova kuti alamulire Israeli.” ⁶ Yehova anati kwa ine, “Solomoni mwana wako ndiye amene adzamanga nyumba yanga ndi mabwalo anga, pakuti Ine ndamusankha kuti akhale mwana wanga ndipo Ine ndidzakhala abambo ake. ⁷ Ine ndidzakhazikitsa ufumu wake kwamuyaya ngati iye saleka kutsatira malamulo ndi malangizo anga, monga momwe zikuchitikira leromu.”

⁸ “Tsono lero ine ndikulamula inu pamaso pa Aisraeli onse ndi pa msonkhano wa Yehova, ndipo Mulungu wathu akumva: Mutsatire mosamala malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wathu, kuti dziko labwinoli likhale lanu ndi kuti mudzalipereke kwa zidzukulu zanu kukhala cholowa chawo kwamuyaya.”

⁹ “Ndipo iwe mwana wanga Solomoni, umvere Mulungu wa abambo ako, umutumikire ndi mtima wodzipereka kwathunthu ndi mtima wako wonse, pakuti Yehova amasanthula mtima wa aliyense, ndipo amadziwa maganizo aliwonse a munthu. Ngati ufunafuna Yehova, Iye adzapezeka; koma ngati umutaya, Iye adzakukana kwamuyaya. ¹⁰ Tsopano ganizira bwino, pakuti Yehova wakusankha iwe kuti umange Nyumba ya Mulungu monga malo ake opatulika. Khala wamphamvu ndipo ugwire ntchito.”

¹¹ Kotero Davide anapatsa Solomoni mwana wake mapulani a khonde la Nyumba ya Mulungu, nyumba zake, mosungiramo katundu, zipinda zake zamʼmwamba, zipinda zamʼkati ndi malo a nsembe zopepesera machimo. ¹² Iye anapatsa Solomoni mapulani a zonse zimene ankaziganizira za bwalo la Nyumba ya Yehova ndi zipinda zonse zozungulira, zipinda zosungiramo chuma cha Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi zinthu zoperekedwa kwa Yehova. ¹³ Davide anamulangiza za magulu a ansembe ndi Alevi ndi ntchito yonse yotumikira mʼNyumba ya Yehova, komanso za zinthu zonse zogwirira ntchito potumikira. ¹⁴ Iye anakonzeratu za kulemera kwa golide wopangira zida zonse zagolide zogwirira ntchito zosiyanasiyana, ndiponso kulemera kwa siliva wopangira zida zonse zasiliva zogwirira ntchito zosiyanasiyana: ¹⁵ kulemera kwa golide wopangira choyikapo nyale chagolide ndi nyale zake; ndiponso kulemera kwa siliva wa choyikapo nyale chilichonse ndi nyale zake, molingana ndi kagwiritsidwe ka choyikapo nyale chilichonse; ¹⁶ kulemera kwa golide wa tebulo iliyonse yoyikapo buledi wopatulika; kulemera kwa siliva wopangira matebulo asiliva; ¹⁷ muyeso wa golide woyengeka bwino wopangira mafoloko, mbale ndi zotungira; muyeso wa golide wa beseni lililonse la siliva; ¹⁸ ndiponso muyeso wa golide wabwino wopangira guwa la zofukiza. Davide anamupatsanso ndondomeko ya mapangidwe a galeta, akerubi agolide atatambasula mapiko awo kuphimba Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova.

¹⁹ Davide anati, “Zonsezi ndalemba kuchokera kwa Yehova, ndipo Iye wachita kuti ndimvetsetse zonse za mapulaniwa.”

²⁰ Davide anatinso kwa mwana wake Solomoni, “Khala wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima ndipo uchite ntchitoyi. Usachite mantha kapena kutaya mtima pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanga ali nawe. Iye sadzakukhumudwitsa kapena kukusiya mpaka ntchito yonse ya Nyumba ya Mulungu itatha. ²¹ Magulu a ansembe ndi Alevi ndi okonzeka kugwira ntchito ya Nyumba ya Mulungu, ndipo munthu waluso aliyense wodzipereka adzakuthandiza pa ntchito yonse. Akuluakulu ndi anthu onse adzamvera chilichonse chomwe udzalamula.”

Aphunzitsi Onyenga

2 Koma panalinso aneneri onama pakati pa Aisraeli, monga padzakhalanso aphunzitsi onyenga pakati panu. Iwo adzalowetsa mwamseri ziphunzitso zonama ndi zowononga, nadzakana Ambuye amene anawawombola, ndipo motero adzadziyitanira okha chiwonongeko mwadzidzidzi. ² Ambiri adzatsata njira zawo zochititsa manyazi ndipo chifukwa cha iwowa, anthu adzanyoza njira ya choonadi. ³ Pofuna kupeza chuma, aphunzitsiwa adzakudyerani chuma chanu pokuwuzani nkhani zopeka. Chiweruzo chawo chinakonzedwa kale, ndipo chikuwadikira.

⁴ Pakuti Mulungu sanalekerere angelo atachimwa paja, koma anawaponya mʼndende, nawayika mʼmaenje amdima, kuwasunga kuti adzaweruzidwe. ⁵ Iye sanalekerere dziko lapansi kalelo, koma anapulumutsa Nowa, mlaliki wa chilungamo, ndi anthu ena asanu ndi awiri atadzetsa chigumula pa dziko lapansi kwa anthu akhalidwe losapembedza Mulunguyo. ⁶ Mulungu anaweruza mizinda ya Sodomu ndi Gomora nayiwononga ndi moto, kuti ikhale chitsanzo cha zimene zidzachitikira anthu osapembedza Mulungu. ⁷ Koma Iye anapulumutsa Loti, munthu wolungama, amene ankavutika ndi khalidwe lonyansa la anthu oyipa. ⁸ (Pakuti munthu wolungamayo, pokhala pakati pawo tsiku ndi tsiku ankavutika mu mtima ndi makhalidwe awo oyipa amene ankawaona ndi kuwamva). ⁹ Tsono mutha kuona kuti Ambuye amadziwa kuwapulumutsa kwake pa mayesero anthu opembedza. Amadziwanso kusunga osalungama kuti alangidwe mpaka tsiku la chiweruzo. ¹⁰ Makamaka amene amatsata zilakolako zonyansa zathupi nanyoza ulamuliro.

Anthu amenewa ndi odzikuza, ndipo otsata chifuniro cha iwo eni, sasamala za munthu, saopa kuchitira chipongwe zolengedwa za mmwamba. ¹¹ Komatu ngakhale angelo, amene ali akulu ndi amphamvu kuwaposa, sayankhula za chipongwe pobweretsa chiweruzo pa iwo kuchokera kwa Ambuye. ¹² Koma anthu awa amachita chipongwe zinthu zimene sakuzidziwa. Ali ngati zirombo zopanda nzeru. Zirombo zolengedwa kuti zigwidwe ndi kuwonongedwa, ndipo ngati zirombozo adzawonongedwa.

¹³ Iwo adzalangidwa chifukwa cha zoyipa zimene anachita. Koma chimene chimawakomera ndi kumangochita zokondweretsa thupi masanasana. Iwo ali ngati mawanga ndi zilema. Podya nanu pamodzi amakondwera kuchita za chinyengo. ¹⁴ Ndi maso awo odzaza ndi chigololo, salekeza kuchimwa. Amanyengerera anthu osakhazikika. Iwo ndi akatswiri pa dyera ndi chuma, ndipo ndi ana otembereredwa! ¹⁵ Iwo anasiya njira yolungama ndipo anapatuka kutsata njira ya Baalamu mwana wa Beori, amene anakonda malipiro a chosalungama. ¹⁶ Koma anadzudzulidwa chifukwa cha kulakwa kwakeko. Bulu, nyama imene siyankhula, inayankhula ngati munthu kuletsa misala ya mneneriyo.

¹⁷ Anthu amenewa ali ngati akasupe wopanda madzi, ndiponso ngati nkhungu yowuluzidwa ndi mphepo yamkuntho. Mulungu wawasungira mdima wandiweyani. ¹⁸ Pakuti anayankhula mawu opanda pake ndi onyada, ndipo ndi zilakolako zoyipa za thupi amanyenga anthu amene angopulumuka kumene pakati pa anzawo oyipa. ¹⁹ Amawalonjeza ufulu, pomwe iwo eni ndi akapolo a zizolowezi zowononga. Pajatu munthu amakhala kapolo wa chilichonse chimene chikumulamulira. ²⁰ Ngati anapulumuka ku zodetsa za dziko lapansi podziwa Ambuye ndi Mpulumutsi wathu Yesu Khristu, pambuyo pake nagwidwanso ndi kugonjetsedwa ndi zomwezo, potsiriza adzakhala oyipa kuposa mmene analili poyamba. ²¹ Kukanakhala bwino akanapanda kudziwa njira ya chilungamo, koposa ndi kuyileka atadziwa lamulo loyera limene Mulungu anawapatsa. ²² Kwa iwo miyambi iyi ndi yoona, “Galu wabwerera ku masanzi ake,” ndipo, “Nkhumba imene inasamba, yakunkhunizikanso mʼmatope.”
