8 Mu bilumbu beni, ntinu Salomo wu kutikisa bakulutu ba dikabu di Isaeli, zimfumu zioso zi mimvila ayi zimfumu zioso zi makanda ma Isaeli. Bawu bayenda kuidi ntinu Salomo ku Yelusalemi, muingi kunata Kasu yi Luwawanu yi Yave ku sioni divula di Davidi. 2 Babakala boso ba Isaeli bakutakana va kimueka na ntinu Salomo, mu nkungi wu zitenda mu ngonda yi etanim*, yinsundula ngonda yi sambuadi. 3 Bo bakulutu boso ba Isaeli bavitila, zinganga nzambi bananguna Kasu yi Luwawanu. 4 Zinganga nzambi ayi basi levi banata ku tempelu, Kasu yi Luwawanu yi Yave, tenda yi lukutukunu ayi biuma bioso binlongo biba ku tenda*. 5 Ntinu Salomo na batu boso baba yandi mu lukutukunu, baba vantuala Kasu yi Luwawanu. Ayi bavana minkhailu miwombo mi mamemi ayi zingombi mio ne mutu kalendi nunga ko kutanga.

6 Bosi zinganga nzambi banata Kasu yi Luwawanu yi Yave va kibuangu kiandi, batula yawu ku kibuangu kilutidi kinlongo, kutsi mavavi ma zikerubim.

7 Mavavi ma zikerubim maba mayalubuka va kibuangu batula Kasu yi Luwawanu. Mu phila ayoyo, mavavi ma zikerubim maba fuka Kasu yi Luwawanu ayi minti mi kunatina Kasu beni. 8 Minti beni baba natinanga Kasu yi Luwawanu, miba beni mikula ayi zitsongi zi minti beni ziaba monikanga ku Kibuangu Kinlongo, kibuangu kiba va ndeko Kibuangu Kilutidi Kinlongo. Vayi minti beni miabasa monikanga ko nate ku nganda. Miawu mikhidi kuna nate bubu. 9 Mu khati Kasu yi Luwawanu muba to mabaya muadi, mo Mose katula muna bo baba ku Horebe, bo Yave kavanga luwawanu na dikabu di Isaeli bo babasika ku Ngipiti.

10 Bo zinganga nzambi babasika ku Kibuangu Kinlongo, dituti difuka tempelu yi Yave. 11 Zinganga nzambi, basa bue nunga ko kukota kuna muingi kuvanga kisalu kiawu, mu kibila ki dituti. Kibila nkembo wu Yave wuwala ku tempelu yi Yave. 12 Bosi Salomo wutuba: “Yave wutuba ti wala zingilanga mu matuti manomba. 13 Minu yikutungidi kibuangu ki kukuitukila muingi wukalanga muna zithangu zioso.”

14 Bosi ntinu Salomo, wubaluka kuba dikabu di Isaeli ayi wutona kuba sakumuna bo bawu baba batelama. 15 Nandi wutuba: “Bika Yave Nzambi yi Isaeli kazitusu, no wusadila koko kuandi, muingi kudukisa mambu kakanikisa tatꞌama Davidi, mu kutuba: 16 ‘Tona kilumbu yibotula dikabu diama Isaeli ku Ngipiti, minu yisa sola ko ne divula dimueka, mu mavula basi Isaeli boso batambula mungi kutunga nzo yinnata dizina diama. Vayi yisola Davidi muingi kayadila dikabu diama Isaeli.’ 17 Ayi tatꞌama Davidi, wuba phuila yi kutunga nzo yinnata dizina di Yave, Nzambi yi Isaeli. 18 Vayi Yave wukamba tatꞌama Davidi: ‘Ngie widi phuila yi kutunga nzo yinnata dizina diama. Didi diambu dimboti ngiewu kuba mayindu amomo. 19 Vayi bakana ko ngiewu wala tunga nzo beni, muanꞌaku no wala kuvinginina mu luyalu, nandi wala tunga nzo yinnata dizina diama.’ 20 Yave wudukisa mambu kakanikisa, kibila yivinginini tatꞌama Davidi mu luyalu ayi yikadizi va kikundu ki kimfumu ki Isaeli dedi bo Yave kakanikisila. Mvandi yitungizi nzo yinnata dizina di Yave, Nzambi yi Isaeli. 21 Ayi yikubikizi kibuangu muingi kutula Kasu yi Luwawanu, muidi luwawanu Yave kavanga na zikhaya zitu, bo kaba botula ku ntoto wu Ngipiti.”

22 Bosi ntinu Salomo, wutelama vantuala kikumu ki Yave, ayi vantuala dikabu di Isaeli, wunonuna mioko ku diyilu ayi 23 wutuba: “A Yave, Nzambi yi Isaeli, vasi ko Nzambi yinkaka widi buka ngiewu kuba kuandi ku diyilu voti va ntoto. Ngie wundukisanga luwawanu wumvanganga ayi wummonisanga luzolo luaku lukuikama kuidi bisadi biaku, ba kutumukinanga mu ntima woso. 24 Ngie wudukisa luwawanu wuvanga na tatꞌama Davidi. Ngie veka wuvanga luwawanu beni, ayi bubu besadila koko kuaku muingi kudukisa luawu. 25 Buabu a Yave Nzambi yi Isaeli, dukisa mambu wukanikisa kuidi tat’ama Davidi, bo wutuba: ‘Bana baku ba kuba keba keba phila bannatina luzingu ayi ba kutatamana kudiatila mu zinzila ziama, dedi bo ngiewu Davidi wuvangila, buna va dikanda diaku vala tatamana kuba mutu wunyadila dikabu di Isaeli. 26 Buabu a Nzambi yi Isaeli, lemvuka dukisa mambu wukanikisa kuidi tatꞌama Davidi.

27 Vayi bukiedika ti ngie na Nzambi wulenda zingila va ntoto? Ne kheti diyilu, disi ko difuana muingi ngiewu kuzingila. Buabu buidi nzo ayiyi yima tunga yilenda bela yifuana muingi ngiewu wuzingila? 28 Buabu a Yave Nzambiꞌama, yuwa nsambu ayi mambu minu kisadi kiaku yidi mu kudinda bubu. 29 Matedi tempelu ayiyi ngieveka wutuba: ‘Dizina diama diala tatamana ku kibuangu akiki.’ Diawu bika mesu maku ma tatamananga kukengidila nzo ayiyi builu ayi muinya, muingi kukuwa nsambu minu kisadi kiaku yimvanga bo yinkuiza ku tempelu muingi kusambila. 30 Yuwa nsambu minu kisadi kiaku yimvanga ayi mambu dikabu diaku Isaeli, bandinda mu nsambu bo bansikika thalu ku kibuangu akiki. Ayi ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu, wuba yuwa ayi wuba lemvukila.

31 Ba kuvunina mutu mambu ti bevangila wadi yandi diambu dimbi ayi ba kuntuala ku kikumu ki tempelu ayiyi ayi na kuleva phesi ti kasa vanga ko mambu babe mvunina, 32 buna bika wuyuwa ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu ayi wufundisa bisadi biaku. Ayi bika wufundisa mutu widi fotu mu kutadila mambu mambi kabe vanga ayi kusakumuna mutu wukhambulu fotu mu kutadila busonga buandi.

33 Dikabu diaku ba kuba nunga kuidi zimbeni ziawu ayi ba kuba nata mu buvika, mu kibila ki disumu babe vola, ba kuzitisa dizina diaku mu kunyongina disumu babe vanga mu kusikika thalu ku kibuangu akiki, muingi kudinda nlemvu, 34 buna wuba yuwa ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu ayi lemvukila disumu dikabu diaku Isaeli babe vanga ayi wuba vutula ku ntoto wuvana kuidi zikhaya ziawu.

35 “Ngie kukhambu kubue nokisanga zimvula, mu kibila ki disumu dikabu diaku bamvanga ayi ba kusambila mu kusikika thalu ku kibuangu akiki, ba kuzitisa dizina diaku ayi ba kunyongina mu disumu babe vanga, kibila ngiewu wuba bika batovuka, 36 buna bika wu yuwa ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu, wulemvukila disumu di dikabu diaku Isaeli bavanga, wuba longa mu nzila bafueti diatila ayi nokisa zimvula ku ntoto wuvana dikabu diaku, muingi wuba kiuka kiawu.

37 Mvandi ku ntoto dikabu diaku, kua kumonika nzala, kivunga, va kumonika mindedeka mimmana kudia mbongo voti phemu yi mbazu yimvika mbonguꞌawu voti zimbeni ba kuzungidila divula di dikabu diaku, va kumonika yoso kua mbela voti yoso kua tsingulu, 38 boti mutu voti dikabu dioso di Isaeli ba kuvanga nsambu muingi kudinda nlemvu, voti kudinda loso kua lusalusu kibila kadika mutu zebi mambu ma kuntatisa, ba kuvumuna mioko ku diyilu mu kusikika thalu ku kibuangu akiki, 39 buna bika wuyuwa ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu, wuba lemvukila ayi wuba tambudila mu kuba sakumuna mu kutadila mavanga mawu mamboti, kibila ngie zebi mintima miawu. (Ngiewu to wulenda zaba madi mu mintima mi batu boso). 40 Muingi mu thangu yoso bala zingila ku ntoto wuvana kuidi zikhaya ziawu, batatamana ku kukinzika ayi kuba boma bu kunyongisa ntimꞌaku.

41 “Boti nzenza wukhambulu mu dikabu diaku Isaeli, wumfumina ku ntoto wu kinanu ayi wunkuiza kuidi ngiewu, mu kibila ki mambu kankuwa matedi dizina diaku, 42 (kibila bela kuwa matedi dizina diaku, matedi mangolo maku)* ba kukuiza ayi kusambila ku nzo ayiyi, 43 buna yuwa ku kibuangu wunkalanga ku diyilu ayi vanga mambu nzenza ka kudinda muingi batu boso va ntoto bazaba dizina diaku ayi ba kukinzika dedi bo dikabu diaku Isaeli bamvangilanga, muingi bazaba ti nzo ayiyi yitungizi, kiawu kibuangu bafueti kubuongimina.

44 Dikabu diaku ba kukuenda mu mvita muingi kue nuanisa zimbeni ziawu mu kulandakana zithuadusulu wu kuba vana, ba kusambila kuidi ngie Yave mu kusikika thalu ku divula diaku wusola ayi kuidi nzo yitungizi yinnata dizina diaku, 45 buna wuba yuwila ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu ayi tambudila nsambuꞌawu ayi wuba nungisa.

46 Ba kuvanga mambu mambi va mesu maku (kibila vasi ko mutu wukhambu sumukanga) ayi ngie kudasukila dikabu ayi kuba kuekula mu mioko mi zimbeni ziawu ayi kuba bika baba nata ku ntoto wu buvika kuba kuandi widi kinanu voti wufikama, 47 ayi kuna ntoto buvika, ba kunyongina mu nzimbala bavanga ayi ba kulomba nlemvuꞌaku mu kutuba: ‘Tube sumuka, tuvengi diambu dimbi’, 48 ba kuvutuka kuidi ngiewu mu ntima woso ayi mu muelꞌawu woso ayi ba kusambila mu kusikika thalu ku ntoto wuvana kuidi zikhaya ziawu, divula dio ngieveka wusola ayi kuidi nzo yo yitungizi yinnata dizina diaku, 49 buna bika wuyuwa nsambuꞌawu ayi wuba tambudila ku kibuangu kiaku wunkalanga ku diyilu mu kuba vukisa. 50 Lemvukila dikabu diaku mu disumu bavola, ayi lemvukila zinzimbala zioso bavanga, ayi fueti vanga muingi zimbeni ziawu baba vangila mamboti ayi baba mona kiadi, 51 (kibila bawu badi dikabu diaku, kiuka kiaku, diawu wuba vukisila bo wuba mona kutovuka ku Ngipiti).* 52 Bika ngiewu, wuyuwa mambu minu kisadi kiaku yi kudinda ayi wuyuwa mambu dikabu diaku Isaeli ba kudinda mu thangu zioso bansambila kuidi ngiewu, muingi kutomba lusalusu luaku. 53 A Yave Mfumu Yilutidi, ngiewu veka wusola dikabu adidi, muingi baba kiuka kiaku dedi bo wukambila kisadi kiaku Mose, bo wubotula zikhaya ziawu ku ntoto wu Ngipiti.”

54 Bo ntinu Salomo kamana kuvanga nsambu awowo ayi kamana kudinda kuidi Yave mambu moso amomo, nandi wutelama vantuala kikumu ki Yave vo kaba wufukama na mioko minonuka kuyilu. 55 Bosi wusakumuna dikabu dioso di Isaeli mu mbembu yinangama mu kutuba: 56 “Bika Yave kazitusu no wuvana dikabu di Isaeli kibuangu muingi bazingila mu ndembama dedi bo kakanikisila. Nandi wudukisa mambu moso kakanikisa mu nzila kisadi kiandi Mose. 57 Bika Yave Nzambi katatamana ku tukieba dedi bo kakiebila zikhaya zitu ayi kabika ku tukuekula. 58 Bika Nzambi ka tusadisa tudiatila mu zinzila ziandi, tutumukina zithumu ziandi, minsiku miandi, ayi minsua miandi, mu ntima woso. Mio nandi kavana kuidi zikhaya zitu muingi batumukina. 59 Ayi bika mambu yibe lomba kuidi Yave mu kilumbu akiki, Yave Nzambiꞌama katatamana kuma tebukilanga monyo builu ayi muinya, muingi kuvangila minu kisadi kiandi ayi kuidi dikabu diandi Isaeli mambu masonga, mu kutadila tsatu yi kadika kilumbu, 60 muingi batu boso va ntoto bazaba ti, Yave nandi Nzambi yikiedika, vasi ko Nzambi yinkaka. 61 Diawu bika mu tatamana kusadila Yave Nzambꞌitu mu ntimꞌinu woso, lutumukina minsua miandi ayi lulunda minsiku miandi dedi bo muidi mu kuvangila bubu.”

62 Bosi ntinu Salomo ayi babakala ba Isaeli baba yandi bavana minkhailu miwombo kuidi Yave. 63 Ntinu Salomo wuvana nkhailu wu kithuadi kuidi Yave. Nandi wuvana 22.000 di zingombi ayi 120.000 di mamemi. Mu phila ayoyo, ntinu Salomo ayi basi Isaeli boso baba yandi bayundula tempelu yi Yave. 64 Mu kilumbu beni ntinu Salomo wuvedisa kibuangu kiba vantuala tempelu yi Yave muingi kuvanina minkhailu miviku, minkhailu mi zitheti ayi wuvika mafuta ma bibulu kavanina minkhailu mi kithuadi. Kibila kikumu ki cobre kiba vantuala tempelu yi Yave, kiba kiluelu muingi kuvanina minkhailu mioso miviku bavana mu kilumbu beni. 65 Mu thangu beni ntinu Salomo wuvangisa nkungi va kimueka na dikabu dioso di Isaeli bafumina kutonina ku Lebo-Hamati nate ku ḿbuinga wu Ngipiti. Nkungi beni bavangila wawu vantuala Yave Nzambi, mu sambuadi di bilumbu bosi babue vanga mu sambuadi di bilumbu binkaka. Kubunda bilumbu bioso biba kumi yinna. 66 Bo nkungi wumana mu kilumbu kilanda, ntinu wutuma dikabu dioso bavutuka mu zinzo ziawu ayi bawu basakumuna ntinu. Bosi bavutuka mu zinzo ziawu mu mayangi, mu kibila ki mamboti moso Yave kamonisa kuidi kisadi kiandi Davidi ayi kuidi dikabu diandi Isaeli.
