None ni nde yitanze abikunze kugira ngo uyu musi yuzuze ukuboko kwiwe ingabirano igenewe Yehova+?”

6 Maze abaganwa+ b’amazu ya ba sekuru+ n’abaganwa+ b’imiryango ya Isirayeli, n’abakuru b’ibihumbi+ n’ab’amajana+, n’abakuru b’igikorwa+ c’umwami baritanga babikunze. 7 Nuko batanga ku bw’igikorwa c’inzu y’Imana y’ukuri inzahabu iciye italanto ibihumbi bitanu, n’amadariki* ibihumbi cumi, n’ifeza iciye italanto ibihumbi cumi, n’umujumpu uciye italanto ibihumbi cumi n’umunani be n’ivyuma biciye italanto ibihumbi ijana+. 8 Amabuye ayo ari yo yose abantu bari bafise bayatanga ku bw’itunga ry’inzu ya Yehova ryari rijejwe Yehiyele+ Umugerishoni+. 9 Nuko abantu banezerezwa no kubona bariko batanga amashikanwa yo ku bushake, kuko bashikanira Yehova n’umutima ukwiye amashikanwa atangwa ku bushake+; mbere na Dawidi umwami ubwiwe anezerwa akanyamuneza kenshi+.

10 Maze Dawidi ahezagira+ Yehova mu maso y’ishengero ryose+, ati: “Uragahezagirwa+, ewe Yehova Mana ya Isirayeli+ data, kuva igihe kitagira urugero gushika igihe kitagira urugero. 11 Ubukuru+ n’ubushobozi+ n’ubwiza+ n’ukuba agahebuza+ n’iteka+ ni ivyawe, ewe Yehova; kuko ikintu cose mu majuru no mw’isi ari icawe+. Ubwami ni ubwawe+, ewe Yehova, wewe mukuru ari hejuru ya vyose*+. 12 Ubutunzi+ n’ubuninahazwa+ biriho kubera wewe, kandi uganza vyose+; mu kuboko kwawe hari ububasha+ n’ubushobozi+, kandi mu kuboko kwawe hari ubushobozi bwo gutuma bose baba abahambaye+ n’ubwo kubaha inkomezi+. 13 None rero, ewe Mana yacu, turagukengurukiye+ kandi turashemeje+ izina ryawe ryiza+.

14 “Yamara, jewe ndi nde+ kandi abantu banje ni bande, kugira ngo tugumane ububasha bwo gutanga amashikanwa atangwa ku bushake nk’aya+? Kuko vyose biva kuri wewe+, kandi ivyo mu kuboko kwawe bikaba ari vyo tuguhaye. 15 Kuko turi ba kavamahanga imbere yawe tukaba n’inyambukira+ nka ba sogokuruza bacu bose. Imisi yacu kw’isi imeze nk’igitutu+, kandi nta cizigiro kiriho. 16 Ewe Yehova Mana yacu, uwu murengera wose twateguye kugira tukwubakire inzu yitirirwa izina ryawe ryeranda uva mu kuboko kwawe, kandi wose ni uwawe+. 17 Ndazi neza, ewe Mana yanje, yuko usuzuma umutima+, kandi yuko uhimbarwa n’ubugororotsi+. Jewe, mu kugororoka kw’umutima wanje ni ho ntanze ibi bintu vyose ndabikunze; none rero mpimbawe no kubona aba bantu bawe bari hano bagushikanira amashikanwa babikunze. 18 Ewe Yehova Mana ya Aburahamu na Izahaki na Isirayeli ba sogokuruza bacu+, nuzigame ivyo gushika igihe kitagira urugero nk’impengamiro y’ivyiyumviro vy’umutima w’abantu bawe+, werekeze umutima wabo kuri wewe+. 19 Salomo umuhungu wanje na we umuhe umutima ukwiye+ kugira ngo agumye amabwirizwa yawe+ n’ibishingantahe vyawe+ n’ingingo nyobozi zawe+, kugira ngo akore vyose, no kugira ngo yubake iyo ngoro+ nagiriye imyiteguro+.”

20 Hanyuma Dawidi abwira ishengero ryose+ ati: “Nimuhezagire+ rero Yehova Imana yanyu.” Nuko ishengero ryose rihezagira Yehova Imana ya ba sekuruza babo, barunama+, bakubita inkoro hasi+ imbere ya Yehova n’imbere y’umwami. 21 Nuko ku musi ukurikira uwo musi, babandanya gushikanira+ Yehova ibimazi no gushikanira Yehova amashikanwa aturirwa+: bashikana ibimasa igihumbi, impfizi z’intama igihumbi, imyagazi y’intama y’amasuguru igihumbi n’amashikanwa y’ikinyobwa+ yavyo, egome, ibimazi vyinshi ku bwa Isirayeli yose+. 22 Kuri uwo musi babandanya kurîra no kunywera imbere ya Yehova n’umunezero mwinshi+; vyongeye, bimika ubugira kabiri Salomo mwene Dawidi ngo abe umwami+ bongera bamurobanuriza amavuta Yehova ngo abe indongozi+, barobanura na Zadoki+ ngo abe umuherezi. 23 Salomo rero yicara ku ntebe y’ubwami ya Yehova+ ari umwami mu kibanza ca Dawidi se wiwe; araroranirwa+, kandi Abisirayeli bose baramugamburukira. 24 Nayo abaganwa bose+ n’abagabo b’abanyenkomezi+ be n’abahungu b’Umwami Dawidi+, bayobokera Salomo umwami. 25 Yehova abandanya kugira Salomo uwuhambaye bihebuje+ mu maso ya Isirayeli yose, no gushira kuri we iteka rya cami ritari bwabe ku mwami n’umwe yamwitangiye imbere mu kuganza Isirayeli+.

I Heburoni yaganje imyaka indwi+, i Yeruzalemu na ho aganza imyaka mirongo itatu n’itatu+. 28 Amaherezo arapfa yisaziye neza+, ahaze imisi n’ubutunzi+ n’ubuninahazwa+; nuko Salomo umuhungu wiwe atangura kuganza mu kibanza ciwe+. 29 Nayo ivya Dawidi umwami, ivya mbere n’ivya nyuma, ehe vyanditswe mu majambo ya Samweli rubonyi+ no mu majambo ya Natani+ umuhanuzi no mu majambo ya Gadi+ umubonyi, 30 hamwe n’ingoma yiwe yose n’ubushobozi bwiwe be n’ibihe+ vyari vyaraciye kuri we no kuri Isirayeli no ku bwami bwose bw’ibihugu+.
