22 Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Kanu waa gurigii Rabbiga Ilaaha ah, oo tanuna waa meeshii qurbaanka la gubo oo reer binu Israa'iil.

Diyaarintii Macbudka

Markaasaa Daa'uud amray in la soo wada ururiyo shisheeyayaashii dalka reer binu Israa'iil degganaa oo dhan, oo wuxuu kaloo amray in wastaadyo dhagxan soo qoraan in la dhiso gurigii Ilaah aawadeed. Oo Daa'uud wuxuu diyaariyey bir faro badan in musmaarro looga dhigo albaabbada irdaha iyo qabsatooyinka, oo wuxuu kaloo diyaariyey naxaas tiro badan oo aan miisaan lahayn, iyo geedo kedar ah oo aan tiro lahayn, waayo, reer Siidoon iyo reer Turos waxay Daa'uud u keeneen geedo kedar ah oo tiro badan. Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Wiilkayga Sulaymaan waa yar yahay, waana tabar daranyahay, oo guriga Rabbiga loo dhisayaana waa inuu ahaado mid aad iyo aad u weyn, oo magac iyo ammaan ku leh kulli waddammada oo dhan, haddaba wax baan u sii diyaarin doonaa. Sidaas daraaddeed Daa'uud waxyaalo faro badan ayuu diyaariyey intuusan dhiman ka hor.

Markaasuu wiilkiisii Sulaymaan u yeedhay oo wuxuu ku amray inuu guri u dhiso Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil. Oo haddana Daa'uud wuxuu wiilkiisii Sulaymaan ku yidhi, Waxaa qalbigayga ku jiray inaan guri u dhiso magaca Rabbiga Ilaahayga ah. Laakiinse waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo leh, Adigu waxaad daadisay dhiig badan, oo aad baad u dagaallantay. Waa inaadan guri u dhisin magacayga, maxaa yeelay, dhiig badan ayaad dhulka ku daadisay anigoo u jeeda. Oo bal eeg, waxaa kuu dhalan doona wiil, kaasoo ahaan doona nin nasasho, oo waxaan ka nasin doonaa cadaawayaashiisa ku wareegsan oo dhan, oo isaga magiciisu wuxuu ahaan doonaa Sulaymaan, oo wakhtigiisa waxaan reer binu Israa'iil siin doonaa nabad iyo xasilloonaan. 10 Oo guri buu magacayga u dhisi doonaa, oo wuxuu ahaan doonaa wiilkaygii, oo anna waxaan u ahaan doonaa aabbihiis, oo waxaan carshiga boqortooyadiisa u xoogayn doonaa inuu weligiis u taliyo reer binu Israa'iil. 11 Haddaba wiilkaygiiyow, Rabbigu ha kula jiro, oo u barwaaqow, oo gurigii Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah u dhis siduu kaaga hadlay. 12 Oo Rabbigu ha ku siiyo xigmad iyo waxgarasho, oo amarka reer binu Israa'iilna ha kuu dhiibo si aad u dhawrtid sharciga Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah. 13 Markaas waad barwaaqoobi doontaa haddaad dhawrto oo yeesho qaynuunnadii iyo xukummadii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo uu reer binu Israa'iil ugu soo dhiibay; xoog yeelo, oo aad u dhiirranow, ha cabsan, hana qalbi jabin. 14 Haddaba bal eeg, anoo dhibaataysan waxaan guriga Rabbiga u diyaarshay boqol kun oo talanti oo dahab ah, iyo kun kun oo talanti oo lacag ah, iyo naxaas iyo bir aan miisaan lahayn, waayo, aad bay u badan yihiin, oo weliba waxaan kaloo diyaariyey alwaax iyo dhagxan, oo adiguna intaas wax baad ku sii dari karaysaa. 15 Oo weliba waxaa kula jira rag shaqaale ah oo faro badan, kuwaasoo ah kuwa qora oo ka shaqeeya dhagxanta iyo alwaaxdaba, iyo rag kasta oo yaqaan sanco kasta, 16 oo ah tan dahabka, iyo tan lacagta, iyo tan naxaasta, iyo tan birta, iyagu tiro ma leh, haddaba kac oo shaqee, oo Rabbiguna ha kula jiro. 17 Oo haddana Daa'uud wuxuu amiirradii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ku amray inay caawiyaan wiilkiisa Sulaymaan. 18 Oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, War sow Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idinlama jiro? Oo sow dhan kastaba nasasho idinkama siin? Waayo, dadyowgii dalka degganaa oo dhan ayuu soo geliyey gacantayda, oo dalkiina waxaa lagu jebshay Rabbiga iyo dadkiisa hortooda. 19 Haddaba qalbigiinna iyo naftiinna u jeediya inaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah doondoontaan, oo sidaas daraaddeed kaca oo dhisa meesha quduuska ah oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, in sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga iyo weelashii Ilaah oo quduuska ahaa la soo geliyo guriga loo dhisayo magaca Rabbiga.

22 Then David said, “The house of the Lord God(A) is to be here, and also the altar of burnt offering for Israel.”

Preparations for the Temple

So David gave orders to assemble the foreigners(B) residing in Israel, and from among them he appointed stonecutters(C) to prepare dressed stone for building the house of God. He provided a large amount of iron to make nails for the doors of the gateways and for the fittings, and more bronze than could be weighed.(D) He also provided more cedar logs(E) than could be counted, for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought large numbers of them to David.

David said, “My son Solomon is young(F) and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the Lord should be of great magnificence and fame and splendor(G) in the sight of all the nations. Therefore I will make preparations for it.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.

Then he called for his son Solomon and charged him to build(H) a house for the Lord, the God of Israel. David said to Solomon: “My son, I had it in my heart(I) to build(J) a house for the Name(K) of the Lord my God. But this word of the Lord came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and have fought many wars.(L) You are not to build a house for my Name,(M) because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight. But you will have a son who will be a man of peace(N) and rest,(O) and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. His name will be Solomon,[a](P) and I will grant Israel peace and quiet(Q) during his reign. 10 He is the one who will build a house for my Name.(R) He will be my son,(S) and I will be his father. And I will establish(T) the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’(U)

11 “Now, my son, the Lord be with(V) you, and may you have success and build the house of the Lord your God, as he said you would. 12 May the Lord give you discretion and understanding(W) when he puts you in command over Israel, so that you may keep the law of the Lord your God. 13 Then you will have success(X) if you are careful to observe the decrees and laws(Y) that the Lord gave Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous.(Z) Do not be afraid or discouraged.

14 “I have taken great pains to provide for the temple of the Lord a hundred thousand talents[b] of gold, a million talents[c] of silver, quantities of bronze and iron too great to be weighed, and wood and stone. And you may add to them.(AA) 15 You have many workers: stonecutters, masons and carpenters,(AB) as well as those skilled in every kind of work 16 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—craftsmen(AC) beyond number. Now begin the work, and the Lord be with you.”

17 Then David ordered(AD) all the leaders of Israel to help his son Solomon. 18 He said to them, “Is not the Lord your God with you? And has he not granted you rest(AE) on every side?(AF) For he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hands, and the land is subject to the Lord and to his people. 19 Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the Lord your God.(AG) Begin to build the sanctuary of the Lord God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the Lord.”
