2 Ariko nakubakiye inzu yo kubamo, aho uzatura iteka ryose.”
3 Umwami arahindukira aha iteraniro ry’Abisirayeli ryose umugisha, iteraniro ry’Abisirayeli ryose ryari rihagaze.
4 Aravuga ati “Uwiteka Imana ya Isirayeli ihimbazwe, ni yo yivuganiye n’umukambwe wanjye Dawidi mu kanwa kayo, ikabisohoresha amaboko yayo iti
5 ‘Uhereye igihe nakuriye ubwoko bwanjye mu gihugu cya Egiputa, nta mudugudu wo mu miryango ya Isirayeli yose nigeze gutoranya wo kubakwamo inzu ngo izina ryanjye riyibemo, kandi nta muntu natoranyije kuba umutware w’ubwoko bwanjye bwa Isirayeli.
6 Ariko noneho ntoranije i Yerusalemu, kugira ngo abe ari ho izina ryanjye riba, kandi ntoranije Dawidi ngo ategeke ubwoko bwanjye bwa Isirayeli.’
7 “Nuko umukambwe wanjye Dawidi yari yaragambiriye kuzubakira izina ry’Uwiteka Imana ya Isirayeli inzu.
8 Ariko Uwiteka aramubwira ati ‘Wari ufite umugambi wo kuzubakira izina ryanjye inzu, wagize neza kuko wabigambiriye mu mutima wawe,
9 ariko si wowe uzubaka iyo nzu, ahubwo umwana wawe uzikurira mu nda, uwo ni we uzubakira izina ryanjye inzu.’
10 “None Uwiteka ashohoje ijambo yavuze, kuko mpagurutse mu cyimbo cy’umukambwe wanjye Dawidi, nkaba nicaye ku ntebe y’ubwami bwa Isirayeli nk’uko Uwiteka yasezeranye, kandi nujuje inzu nubakiye izina ry’Uwiteka Imana ya Isirayeli,
11 ni ho nabonye ubutereko bw’isanduku irimo isezerano ry’Uwiteka yasezeranye n’Abisirayeli.”

13 Kandi Salomo yari yararemye ikintu gisa n’uruhimbi cy’imiringa, uburebure bwacyo bw’umurambararo bwari mikono itanu, ubugari bwacyo bwari mikono itanu, n’uburebure bwacyo bw’igihagararo bwari mikono itatu, agishinga mu rugo hagati agihagararaho, maze apfukama imbere y’iteraniro ry’Abisirayeli ryose, atega amaboko ayerekeje ku ijuru.
14 Arasenga ati “Uwiteka Mana ya Isirayeli, nta mana ihwanye nawe mu ijuru cyangwa mu isi, ikomeza gusohoreza isezerano abagaragu bawe no kubagirira ibambe, bagendera imbere yawe n’umutima wose.

17 Nuko Uwiteka Mana ya Isirayeli, ijambo ryawe wabwiye umugaragu wawe Dawidi urihamye.
18 “Ariko se ni ukuri koko, Imana izaturana n’abantu mu isi? Dore ijuru ndetse n’ijuru risumba ayandi nturikwirwamo, nkanswe iyi nzu nubatse.
19 Ariko wite ku gusenga k’umugaragu wawe nkwinginga, Uwiteka Mana yanjye, wumve gutakamba no gusenga umugaragu wawe ngusengera imbere,

24 “Abantu bawe b’Abisirayeli nibirukanwa n’ababisha bazira ko bagucumuyeho, nyuma bakaguhindukirira bakerura izina ryawe, bagasenga bingingira imbere yawe muri iyi nzu,
25 ujye wumva uri mu ijuru ubabarire abantu bawe b’Abisirayeli igicumuro cyabo, ubagarure mu gihugu wabahanye na ba sekuruza.
26 “Ijuru nirikingwa imvura ntigwe kuko bagucumuyeho, nyuma bagasenga berekeye aha bakubaha izina ryawe, bakareka igicumuro cyabo kuko uzaba ubahannye,
27 ujye wumva uri mu ijuru ubabarire abagaragu bawe n’abantu bawe b’Abisirayeli igicumuro cyabo, uzabigishe kugendana ingeso nziza, uvubire igihugu cyawe imvura, icyo wahaye abantu bawe ho gakondo.
28 “Inzara nitera mu gihugu cyangwa mugiga, cyangwa kurumbya cyangwa gikongoro, cyangwa inzige cyangwa kagungu, cyangwa ababisha nibabagotera mu gihugu kirimo imidugudu yabo, nubwo hatera ibyago cyangwa indi ndwara yose,
29 maze umuntu wese nagira icyo asaba cyose yinginze, cyangwa abantu bawe b’Abisirayeli bose uko umuntu wese azajya yimenyaho indwara ye n’umubabaro we ku bwe, akarambura amaboko ye yerekeye iyi nzu,
30 ujye wumva uri mu ijuru ari ryo buturo bwawe ubabarire, witure umuntu wese ukurikije ibyo yakoze byose, wowe uzi umutima we (kuko ari wowe wenyine uzi imitima y’abantu),
31 kugira ngo bakubahe bagendere mu nzira zawe, iminsi bazamara yose mu gihugu wahaye ba sogokuruza bakiriho.
