1Wathi uDavide, Yiyo le indlu kaYehova uThixo; siso esi isibingelelo samadini anyukayo kwaSirayeli.

2Wathi uDavide mabahlanganiswe abasemzini, abasezweni lakwaSirayeli; waqesha abaqingqi bamatye, ukuba bakrole amatye axholiweyo, okwakha indlu kaThixo.

3uDavide walungisa isinyithi sasininzi sezikhonkwane zeengcango zamasango nezezinyuko; nobhedu oluninzi, alwaba nakulinganiswa;

4nemisedare yamininzi; ngokuba abaseTsidon nabaseTire bamzisele yaninzi imisedare uDavide.

5Wandula ke wathi uDavide: “uSolomon unyana wam mncinane yaye usemtsha, yaye indlu eza kwakhelwa uYehova ifanele ibe yeyeyona inkulu, idumileyo nezukileyo kuwo onke amazwe; Ngoko uDavide walungiselela okuninzi ngaphambi kokufa kwakhe.

6Emva koko wabiza unyana wakhe uSolomon, wamyalela ukuba amakhele indlu uYehova uThixo kaSirayeli.

7Wathi uDavide kuSolomon, Nyana wam, ndandizimisele ukulakhela indlu igama likaYehova uThixo wam.

8Ke lafika kum ilizwi likaYehova, lisithi, Uphalaze igazi elininzi, ulwe iimfazwe ezinkulu; akuyi kulakhela ndlu igama lam, ngokuba uphalaze igazi elininzi ehlabathini phambi kwamehlo am.

9Yabona, uya kuzalelwa unyana; yena uya kuba yindoda yoxolo; yaye ndiya kumphumza ezintshabeni zakhe zonke ezimjikelezileyo, ngenxa yokuba igama lakhe liya kuba nguSolomon, yaye ndiya kumnika uSirayeli uxolo nokuphumla ngemihla yakhe.

10Nguye ke oya kulakhela igama lam indlu; yena uya kuba ngunyana wam, mna ndibe nguyise kuye; yaye ndiya kusimisa isihlalo sobukumkani bakhe kwaSirayeli ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo.

11Ke kaloku, nyana wam, ngamana uYehova angaba nawe! ube nempumelelo, uyakhe indlu kaYehova uThixo wakho, njengoko wakuthethayo kuwe.

12NguYehova kuphela okunika ubulumko nokuqonda, nokukuyalela ngoSirayeli, ukuze uwugcine umthetho kaYehova uThixo wakho.

13Uya kuphumelela apho, ukuba uthe wakugcina ukuyenza imithetho namasiko, awathi uYehova wamwisela uMoses umthetho ngawo ngenxa yamaSirayeli. Yomelela, ukhaliphe; musani ukoyika, musani ukoyika.

14Uyabona, ekubandezelekeni kwam ndiyilungisele indlu kaYehova ikhulu lamawaka eetalente zegolide, newaka leetalente zesilivere; nobhedu nesinyithi, abungenakulinganiswa nanto; ngokuba izele; Kananjalo ndalungisa imithi namatye; kwaye ungayongeza.

15Kananjalo baninzi kuwe abasebenzi, abaxholi, nabasebenza ngamatye nemithi, namadoda onke angamagcisa emsebenzini wonke.

16Igolide, nesilivere, nobhedu, nesinyithi, azinakubalwa yimani ngoku, niyenze, uYehova woba nawe.

17Waphinda uDavide wabawisela umthetho zonke iinkosana zakwaSirayeli, ukuba zincede uSolomon unyana wakhe, wathi:

18Akanani na uYehova uThixo wenu? Akaniphumzanga na? ngokuba abemi behlabathi nibasandleni sam; yaye ilizwe loyiswa phambi koYehova naphambi kwabantu bakhe.

19Ke kaloku zimiseleni ukumquqela uYehova uThixo wenu ngentliziyo yenu nangomphefumlo wenu; yimani niyakhe ingcwele kaYehova uThixo, ukuba iziswe ityeya yomnqophiso kaYehova, neempahla ezikhethekileyo zikaThixo, endlwini eya kwakhelwa igama likaYehova.
