Iby'Umugabekazi w'i Sheba(1 Abami 10.1-13)

1 Mat 12.42; Luka 11.31 Umugabekazi w'i Sheba yumvise inkuru ya Salomo, aza i Yerusalemu azanywe no kumubaza ibinaniranye amugerageza. Yari azanye n'abantu benshi cyane n'ingamiya zihetse ibihumura neza, n'izahabu nyinshi cyane n'amabuye y'igiciro cyinshi. Ageze kuri Salomo amurondorera ibyari mu mutima we byose.

2Salomo amusobanurira ibyo yamubajije byose, nta kintu cyasobye Salomo atamusobanuriye.

3Nuko umugabekazi w'i Sheba abonye ubwenge bwa Salomo n'inzu yubatse,

4n'ibyokurya byo ku meza ye n'imyicarire y'abagaragu be, no guhereza kw'abahereza be n'imyambarire yabo, n'abahereza be ba vino n'imyambarire yabo, n'urwuririro yazamukiragaho ajya mu nzu y'Uwiteka, arumirwa bimukura umutima.

5Aherako abwira umwami ati “Inkuru numviye mu gihugu cyanjye z'ibyo wakoze n'iz'ubwenge bwawe, zari iz'ukuri.

6Ariko sindakemera ibyo bavuze kugeza aho naziye nkabyirebera n'ayanjye maso, kandi mbonye ko ntabwiwe n'igice cy'ubwenge bwawe bukomeye, urengeje inkuru numvise.

7Hahirwa abantu bawe, aba bagaragu bawe barahirwa bibera imbere yawe iminsi yose, bakumva ubwenge bwawe.

8Uwiteka Imana yawe ihimbazwe, yakwishimiye ikakwicaza ku ntebe yayo ukaba umwami utwarira Uwiteka Imana yawe, kuko Imana yawe yakunze ubwoko bwa Isirayeli igashaka kubukomeza iteka ryose, ni cyo cyatumye ikugira umwami wabo ngo uce imanza zitabera.”

9Maze atura umwami italanto z'izahabu ijana na makumyabiri, n'ibihumura neza byinshi cyane n'amabuye y'igiciro cyinshi, kandi ntabwo higeze kubaho ibihumura neza nk'ibyo umugabekazi w'i Sheba yatuye Umwami Salomo.

10Kandi n'abagaragu ba Hiramu n'aba Salomo, abazanaga izahabu ya Ofiri, ni bo bazanaga ibiti bimeze nk'imisagavu n'amabuye y'igiciro cyinshi.

11Umwami akoresha ibiti bimeze nk'imisagavu inzuririro z'inzu y'Uwiteka n'iz'inzu y'ubwami, abibāzamo n'inanga na nebelu by'abaririmbyi, kandi kera kose mu gihugu cy'i Buyuda ntihigeze kuboneka ibiti nk'ibyo.

12Maze Umwami Salomo aha umugabekazi w'i Sheba ibyo yifuzaga n'ibyo yasabye byose, biruta ibyo yatuye umwami. Nuko arahaguruka asubira mu gihugu cye n'abagaragu be.

Ubutunzi bwa Salomo(1 Abami 10.14-25)

13Izahabu yajyaga kwa Salomo mu mwaka yari italanto magana atandatu na mirongo itandatu n'esheshatu,

14udashyizeho izo abagenza n'abacuruzi bazanaga, kandi abami ba Arabiya bose n'abatware bo mu gihugu bajyaga bazanira Salomo izahabu n'ifeza.

15Maze Salomo acurisha ingabo magana abiri mu izahabu, italanto z'izahabu magana atandatu zikajya zicurwamo ingabo imwe.

16Acura n'ingabo ntoya magana atatu mu izahabu, ishekeli magana atandatu z'izahabu zikajya zicurwamo ingabo imwe, umwami azitambika mu nzu y'ibiti by'ikibira cy'i Lebanoni.

17Kandi umwami yibarishiriza intebe nini y'ubwami mu mahembe y'inzovu, ayiteraho izahabu itunganijwe.

18Iyo ntebe yari ifite urwuririro rw'intambwe esheshatu, ifite n'agatebe k'ibirenge k'izahabu. Izo nzuririro zari zifashe ku ntebe, kandi hariho n'imikondo impande zombi z'ahicarwa, n'ibishushanyo by'intare bibiri bihagaze impande zombi iruhande rw'imikondo.

19Kandi ibindi bishushanyo by'intare cumi na bibiri byahagararaga impande zombi ku nzuririro uko ari esheshatu. Mu bihugu byose nta ntebe yigeze kubazwa isa na yo.

20Ibintu umwami yanyweshaga byose byari izahabu, n'ibirirwaho byose byo mu nzu y'ibiti by'ikibira cy'i Lebanoni byari izahabu itunganijwe. Ku ngoma ya Salomo ifeza ntiyatekerezwaga ko ari ikintu,

21kuko umwami yari afite inkuge zajyaga zijya i Tarushishi zijyanwa n'abagaragu ba Hiramu. Uko imyaka itatu yashiraga, inkuge z'i Tarushishi zajyaga zigaruka zizanye izahabu n'ifeza, n'amahembe y'inzovu n'inkima na tawusi.

22Nuko Salomo arusha abami bo mu isi bose ubutunzi n'ubwenge.

23Abami bo mu isi bose bashakaga kureba Salomo, ngo bamenye ubwenge Imana yashyize mu mutima we.

24Uwazaga wese yazanaga ituro rye, ibintu by'ifeza n'iby'izahabu n'imyambaro, n'intwaro zo kurwanisha n'ibihumura neza n'amafarashi n'inyumbu. Ni ko byagendaga uko umwaka utashye.

25 1 Abami 5.6 Kandi Salomo yari afite ibiraro by'amafarashi ibihumbi bine yakururaga amagare ye, n'abagendera ku mafarashi inzovu imwe n'ibihumbi bibiri, ibyo abishyira mu midugudu ibikwamo amagare n'i Yerusalemu mu murwa w'umwami.

26Itang 15.18; 1 Abami 5.1 Kandi yategekaga abami bose, uhereye kuri rwa Ruzi ukageza ku gihugu cy'Abafilisitiya no ku rugabano rwa Egiputa.

27Umwami atuma i Yerusalemu hagwira ifeza ingana n'amabuye yaho ubwinshi, n'ibiti by'imyerezi atuma bingana n'imivumu yo mu kibaya ubwinshi.

28Guteg 17.16 Kandi bazaniraga Salomo amafarashi avuye muri Egiputa no mu bihugu byose.

29Kandi indi mirimo ya Salomo yose iyabanje n'iyaherutse, mbese ntiyanditswe mu by'umuhanuzi Natani no mu byahanuwe na Ahiya w'i Shilo, no mu byahishuriwe Ido bamenya kuri Yerobowamu mwene Nebati?

30Salomo amara ku ngoma imyaka mirongo ine i Yerusalemu, ategeka Abisirayeli bose.

31Hanyuma Salomo aratanga asanga ba sekuruza, ahambwa mu mudugudu wa se Dawidi, maze umuhungu we Rehobowamu yima ingoma ye.
