Igitabo cya mbere cy’Abami 6:1-38
6 Mu mwaka wa 480, nyuma y’aho Abisirayeli* baviriye mu gihugu cya Egiputa,+ Salomo yatangiye kubakira Yehova inzu.*+ Hari mu mwaka wa kane w’ubutegetsi bwe muri Isirayeli, mu kwezi kwa Zivu,*+ ari ko kwezi kwa kabiri.
2 Inzu Umwami Salomo yubakiye Yehova yari ifite uburebure bwa metero 27,* ubugari bwa metero 9* n’ubuhagarike bwa metero 13.*+
3 Imbere y’Ahera* h’iyo nzu hari ibaraza+ rifite uburebure bwa metero 9,* bungana n’ubugari bw’iyo nzu. Ryari rifite ubugari bwa metero 4 na santimetero 50.*
4 Iyo nzu ayikorera amadirishya afite amakadire agenda arutanwa.+
5 Nanone, ku nkuta z’iyo nzu yomekaho indi nzu iyizengurutse, ikaba yari izengurutse Ahera n’icyumba cy’imbere cyane.+ Iyo nzu izengurutse iya mbere yayiciyemo ibyumba.+
6 Etaje yo hasi y’iyo nzu yometseho, yari ifite ubugari bwa metero 2 na santimetero 50* iyo hagati ifite ubugari bwa metero 3* naho etaje ya gatatu ifite ubugari bwa metero 3 na santimetero 50.* Inkuta zagendaga ziba nto, kuko yasize umwanya wo kugenda ashyiraho imbaho, kugira ngo zitinjira mu nkuta z’iyo nzu.+
7 Igihe iyo nzu yubakwaga, yubakishijwe amabuye yaconzwe mbere y’igihe.+ Nta nyundo cyangwa ishoka cyangwa ikindi gikoresho cy’icyuma cyigeze cyumvikana muri iyo nzu igihe yubakwaga.
8 Umuryango wa etaje yo hasi y’iyo nzu yometseho, wari uri mu ruhande rwo mu majyepfo*+ rwa ya nzu yubatswe mbere. Bajyaga muri etaje yo hagati bazamukiye kuri esikariye igiye yihotagura, bakanayizamukiraho bava muri etaje yo hagati bajya mu ya gatatu.
9 Yakomeje kubaka iyo nzu, arayirangiza.+ Igisenge cyayo yacyubakishije ibiti by’amasederi, hejuru yabyo agerekaho imbaho z’amasederi.+
10 Nanone muri iyo nzu yometseho, yashyizemo ibyumba bizengurutse inzu+ ya mbere bifite ubuhagarike bwa metero 2 na santimetero 50.* Imbaho z’ibiti by’amasederi ni zo zahuzaga ibyo byumba na ya nzu ya mbere.
11 Muri icyo gihe Yehova abwira Salomo ati:
12 “Nukurikiza amategeko yanjye, ukubaha imyanzuro mfata,+ nzakora ibintu byose nasezeranyije papa wawe Dawidi+ birebana n’iyi nzu urimo wubaka.
13 Nzatura hagati mu Bisirayeli+ kandi sinzatererana abantu banjye, ari bo Bisirayeli.”+
14 Salomo akomeza kubaka iyo nzu arayirangiza.
15 Ku nkuta zayo imbere yomekaho imbaho z’amasederi. Kuva hasi kugera hejuru kuri purafo* yomekaho imbaho z’amasederi, naho hasi muri iyo nzu ahasasa imbaho z’imiberoshi.+
16 Ahagana inyuma muri iyo nzu yaciyemo icyumba cya metero icyenda* akoresheje imbaho z’amasederi zavaga hasi zikagera hejuru kuri purafo. Icyo ni cyo cyumba cy’imbere cyane+ cyitwa Ahera Cyane.+
17 Icyumba kinini cy’iyo nzu,+ ni ukuvuga icyumba kiri imbere y’Ahera Cyane, cyari gifite uburebure bwa metero 18.*
18 Imbaho z’amasederi zari zometse imbere mu nzu zari zibajeho imitako imeze nk’uducuma+ n’indi imeze nk’indabyo zirabije.+ Hose hari hometseho imbaho z’amasederi, ku buryo nta buye ryagaragaraga.
19 Yatunganyije icyumba cy’imbere cyane+ muri iyo nzu, kugira ngo ashyiremo isanduku y’isezerano rya Yehova.+
20 Icyumba cy’imbere cyane cyari gifite uburebure bwa metero icyenda,* ubugari bwa metero icyenda n’ubuhagarike bwa metero icyenda.+ Ku nkuta yasizeho zahabu itavangiye, ku gicaniro*+ na ho yomekaho imbaho z’amasederi.
21 Salomo yasize zahabu itavangiye+ ku nkuta z’imbere mu nzu. Yashyize iminyururu ya zahabu imbere y’icyumba cy’imbere cyane+ cyari gisize zahabu ahantu hose.
22 Inzu yose yayisize zahabu kugeza aho ayirangirije, igicaniro+ cyari hafi y’icyumba cy’imbere cyane na cyo agisiga zahabu hose.
23 Yabaje abakerubi babiri+ bo gushyira mu cyumba cy’imbere cyane, ababaza mu giti kivamo amavuta. Buri mukerubi yari afite uburebure bwa metero enye.*+
24 Ibaba ry’umukerubi ryari rifite uburebure bwa metero 2 na santimetero 50* n’irindi rifite uburebure bwa metero 2 na santimetero 50. Kuva ku mutwe w’ibaba rimwe ry’umukerubi kugeza ku wundi mutwe hari metero zigera kuri 5.*
25 Amababa y’umukerubi wa kabiri, na yo yareshyaga na metero 4 na santimetero 50.* Abo bakerubi bombi barareshyaga kandi bateye kimwe.
26 Umukerubi umwe yari afite uburebure bwa metero 4 na santimetero 50* kandi undi na we ari uko.
27 Nuko ashyira abo bakerubi+ mu nzu y’imbere* barambuye amababa. Ibaba ry’umukerubi umwe ryakoraga ku rukuta rumwe, ibaba ry’undi mukerubi rigakora ku rundi rukuta. Andi mababa yabo yahuriraga hagati mu cyumba agakoranaho.
28 Asiga zahabu kuri abo bakerubi.
29 Ku nkuta z’icyumba cy’imbere n’icy’inyuma by’iyo nzu,* yaharatuyeho ibishushanyo by’abakerubi+ n’iby’ibiti by’imikindo+ n’iby’indabyo zirabije.+
30 Yasize zahabu hasi muri iyo nzu, mu cyumba cy’imbere n’icy’inyuma.
31 Umuryango w’icyumba cy’imbere cyane yawukoreye inzugi mu mbaho z’igiti kivamo amavuta, inkingi, n’amakadire y’inzugi, ari cyo gice cya gatanu cy’urukuta.*
32 Izo nzugi zombi zari zibajwe mu giti kivamo amavuta, yaziharatuyeho ibishushanyo by’abakerubi, ibiti by’imikindo n’iby’indabyo zirabije, abisigaho zahabu. Kuri abo bakerubi no ku bishushanyo by’ibiti by’imikindo, yateyeho zahabu akoresheje inyundo.
33 Yakoze n’umuryango w’ahera, awukorera n’amakadire mu mbaho z’igiti kivamo amavuta; icyo kikaba cyari igice cya kane cy’urwo rukuta.*
34 Yakoze inzugi ebyiri zibajwe mu giti cy’umuberoshi. Urugi rwa mbere rwari rugizwe n’ibipande bibiri, bifashe ku bintu bikomeye byikaragiragaho, urundi na rwo rugizwe n’ibipande bibiri bifashe ku bintu bikomeye byikaragiragaho.+
35 Izo nzugi aziharaturaho ibishushanyo by’abakerubi n’iby’ibiti by’imikindo n’indabyo zirabije, abisigaho zahabu.
36 Nanone yubatse urugo rw’imbere,+ arwubakisha imirongo itatu y’amabuye aconze neza, agerekaho n’umurongo umwe w’imbaho z’ibiti by’amasederi.+
37 Mu mwaka wa 4 w’ubutegetsi bwa Salomo, mu kwezi kwa Zivu,* hubatswe fondasiyo y’inzu ya Yehova.+
38 Mu mwaka wa 11 w’ubutegetsi bwa Salomo, mu kwezi kwa Buli,* (ari ko kwezi kwa munani,) ibyari bigize iyo nzu byose byari byaramaze kubakwa hakurikijwe igishushanyo mbonera cyayo.+ Ubwo rero, Salomo yamaze imyaka irindwi ayubaka.
