1Nuko Salomo amaze gusenga,umuriroumanuka uva mu ijuru wotsa igitambo cyo koswa n'ibindi bitambo, icyubahiro cy'Uwiteka cyuzurainzu.
2Abatambyi ntibabasha kwinjira mu nzu y'Uwiteka, kuko icyubahiro cy'Uwiteka cyuzuyeinzu y'Uwiteka.
3Abisirayeli bose babonye ukoumurirowamanutse, icyubahiro cy'Uwiteka kikaba ku nzu, barunamabubikaamaso hasi ku mabuye ashashwe bararamya, bahimbaza Uwiteka bati “Uwiteka ni mwiza, imbabazi ze zihoraho iteka ryose.”106.1; 107.1; 118.1; 136.1; Yer 33.11
4Mazeumwami n'abantu bose batambira ibitambo imbere y'Uwiteka.
5Umwami Salomo atamba inka inzovu ebyiri n'ibihumbi bibiri, n'intama agahumbi n'inzovu ebyiri. Uko ni koumwami n'abantu bose bejeje inzu y'Imana.
6Kandi abatambyi bari bahagaze ku mirimo yabo, Abalewi na bo bari bafite ibintu bivugirizwa Uwiteka, ibyo Umwami Dawidi yari yarakoreshereje guhimbarisha Uwiteka, kuko imbabazi ze zihoraho iteka ryose, n'ibyo Dawidi yakoresheje iyo yashakaga guhimbarisha Uwiteka imirimo yabo. Abatambyi bavugiriza amakondera imbere ya bose, Abisirayeli bose na bo bari bahagaze.
7Kandi Salomo yeza no hagati mu rugo rw'imbere y'inzu y'Uwiteka, kuko yahatambiye ibitambo byoswa n'urugimbu rw'ibitambo by'ishimwe yuko bari amahoro, kuko icyotero cy'umuringa Salomo yaremye kitabashije gukwirwaho ibitambo byoswa n'amaturo y'amafu y'impeke n'urugimbu.
8Nuko icyo gihe Salomo agira ibirori by'iminsi irindwi hamwe n'Abisirayeli bose bari iteraniro rinini cyane,baturutse mu gihugu cyoseuhereye aharasukirwa i Hamati,ukageza ku kagezi ka Egiputa.
9Ku munsi wa munanibagira guterana kwera, kuko bari bamaze iminsi irindwi beza icyotero bari mu birori by'iyo minsi uko ari irindwi.
10Maze ku munsi wa makumyabiri n'itatu wo mu kwezi kwa karindwi, Salomo asezerera abantu ngo batahe. Bajya iwabo banezerewe, kandi bishimiye mu mitima ibyo Uwiteka yari yeretse Dawidi na Salomo n'ubwoko bwe bwa Isirayeli.
11Uko ni ko Salomo yujujeinzu y'Uwiteka n'inzu y'ubwami, n'ibyo Salomo yari yaribwiye mu mutimawe ko azakora mu nzu y'Uwiteka no mu nzu ye bwite, arabisohoza neza.
12Hanyuma Uwiteka yiyereka Salomo nijoro aramubwira ati “Numvise gusenga kwawe maze nitoraniriza aha hantu ngo habe inzu yo gutambiramo ibitambo.
13Nindamuka nkinze ijuru imvura ntigwe, cyangwa nintegeka inzige ngo zone igihugu, cyangwa ninohereza mugigamu bantu banjye,
14maze abantu banjye bitiriwe izina ryanjye nibicisha bugufibagasenga, bagashaka mu maso hanjye bagahindukirabakareka ingeso zabo mbi, nanjye nzumva ndi mu ijuru mbababarire igicumurocyabo, mbakirize igihugu.
15Uhereye none amaso yanjye azajya areba, n'amatwi yanjye azajya yumva gusenga kuzasengerwa aha hantu.
16Kuko ubu ntoranije iyi nzu nkayereza kugirango izina ryanjye riyiberemo iteka ryose, n'amaso yanjye n'umutimawanjye bizayihoramo iminsi yose.
17Kandi nawe nugendera imbere yanjye nk'uko so Dawidi yagendaga,ugakora ibyo nagutegetse byose,ukitondera amategeko n'amateka yanjye,
18nanjye nzakomeza ingoma yawe nk'uko nasezeranye na so Dawidi nkamubwira nti ‘Ntabwouzaburaumuntu wo gutegeka Abisirayeli.’
19Ariko nimuteshuka mukareka amateka n'amategeko yanjye nabashyize imbere, mukagenda mugakorera izindi mana mukaziramya,
20nanjye nzabarandura mbakure mu gihugu cyanjye nabahaye, kandi iyi nzu nereje izina ryanjye nzayijugunya imve mu maso, nzayigira iciro ry'imigani n'agashinyaguro mu mahanga yose.
21“Kandi iyi nzu uko ireshya uku,uzayinyura imbere wese azatangara avuga ati ‘Ni iki cyatumye Uwiteka agenza atyo iki gihugu n'iyi nzu?’
22Nuko bazasubizabati ‘Kuko bimūye Uwiteka Imana ya ba sekuruzayabakuye mu gihugu cya Egiputa, bagakeza izindi mana, bakaziramya bakazikorera, ni cyo cyatumye ibateza ibi byago byose.’”
