1 Kwasekusithi uSolomoni eseqedile ukwakha indlu kaJehova ^a lendlu yenkosi ^b laso sonke isifiso sikaSolomoni ayethokoza ukusenza ^c, 2 iNkosi yabonakala kuSolomoni ngokwesibili njengokubonakala kwayo kuye ^d eGibeyoni ^e. 3 INkosi yathi kuye: Ngizwile umkhuleko wakho lokuncenga kwakho okuncenge phambi kwami. Ngiyingcwelisile lindlu oyakhileyo ukubeka ibizo lami lapho kuze kube nininini ^f; lamehlo ami lenhliziyo yami kuzakuba lapho zonke izinsuku ^g. 4 Wena-ke, uba uhamba phambi kwami ^h, njengoDavida uyihlo wahamba, ngokuphelela kwenhliziyo langokuqonda, ukwenza njengakho konke engikulaye khona, ugcine izimiso zami lezahlulelo zami ⁱ, 5 khona ngizamisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakho phezu kukaIsrayeli kuze kube nininini, njengokukhuluma kwami kuDavida uyihlo, ngisithi: Kakuyikusweleka kuwe umuntu phezu kwesihlalo sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli ^j. 6 Uba lizaphenduka lokuphenduka, lina labantwana benu, ekungilandeleni, lingayigcini imilayo yami, izimiso zami, engikubeke phambi kwenu, kodwa liyekhonza abanye onkulunkulu, libakhothamele ^k, 7 khona ngizaquma uIsrayeli ebusweni belizwe engibanike lona ^l, lendlu engiyingcwelisele ibizo lami ^m ngizayilahla phambi kwami; loIsrayeli uzakuba yisaga lento yokuhozwa phakathi kwezizwe zonke ⁿ. 8 Lalindlu, ephakemeyo, wonke oyedlulayo uzamangala kakhulu ancife ^o, bathi: INkosi ikwenzeleni okunje kulelilizwe lakulindlu? 9 Njalo bazakuthi: Ngenxa yokuthi bayitshiyile iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo eyakhupha oyise elizweni leGibhithe, babambelela kwabanye onkulunkulu, babakhonza babasebenzela; ngalokho iNkosi ibehlisele bonke lobububi.

Ezinye izenzo zikaSolomoni

10 Kwasekusithi ^p ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi amabili uSolomoni esakhile izindlu zombili, indlu kaJehova lendlu yenkosi ^q, 11 (uHiramu inkosi yeTire wayemsekele uSolomoni ngezigodo zemisedari langezigodo zamafiri langegolide, njengesiloyiso sakhe sonke) ngalesosikhathi inkosi uSolomoni yamnika uHiramu imizi engamatshumi amabili elizweni leGalili. 12 UHiramu wasephuma eTire ukubona imizi uSolomoni ayemnike yona, kodwa yayingalunganga emehlweni akhe. 13 Wasesithi: Yimizi bani le onginike yona, mfowethu? Waseyibiza ngokuthi ilizwe leKabuli, kuze kube lamuhla ^r. 14 UHiramu wayethumele enkosini amathalenta* alikhulu lamatshumi amabili egolide.

15 Nantu-ke udaba lwezibhalwa inkosi uSolomoni eyazibuthela ukwakha indlu yeNkosi, lendlu yayo ^s, leMilo ^t, lomduli weJerusalema, leHazori ^u, leMegido ^v, leGezeri ^w: 16 UFaro inkosi yeGibhithe wayenyukile wathumba iGezeri wayitshisa ngomlilo, wabulala amaKhanani ayehlala emzini ^x, wakhunga ngayo indodakazi yakhe, umkaSolomoni ^y. 17 USolomoni wasesakha iGezeri, leBhethi-Horoni engaphansi ^z, 18 leBahalathi ^aa, leTamari enkangala elizweni, 19 lemizi yonke yokugcinela impahla uSolomoni ayelayo ^ab, lemizi ^ac yezinqola ^ad, lemizi yabagadi bamabhiza, lesiloyiso sikaSolomoni ayeloyisa ngaso ukwakha eJerusalema leLebhanoni lelizweni lonke lombuso wakhe. 20 Bonke abantu ababesele kumaAmori, amaHethi, amaPerizi, amaHivi, lamaJebusi, ababengeyisibo babantwana bakoIsrayeli, 21 abantwana babo ababesele emva kwabo elizweni ^ae, abantwana bakoIsrayeli abangenelisanga ukubatshabalalisa ^af, uSolomoni wababutha izibhalwa ^ag eziyizigqili, kuze kube lamuhla ^ah. 22 Kodwa ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uSolomoni kenzanga sigqili ^ai, kodwa babengamadoda empi, lenceku zakhe, leziphathamandla zakhe, lezinduna zakhe, labaphathi bezinqola zakhe, labagadi bakhe bamabhiza. 23 Laba babezinduna zabaphathi abaphezu komsebenzi kaSolomoni ^aj, amakhulu amahlanu lamatshumi amahlanu ^ak, ababebusa abantu ababesebenza emsebenzini ^al.

24 Kodwa indodakazi kaFaro yenyuka iphuma emzini kaDavida ^am isiya endlini yayo ayeyakhele yona ^an. Ngalesosikhathi wakha iMilo ^ao.

25 Njalo kathathu ngomnyaka uSolomoni wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula phezu kwelathi ayelakhele iNkosi, watshisa impepha kulelo elaliphambi kweNkosi. Waqeda njalo indlu.

26 Inkosi uSolomoni yasisenza imikhumbi eEziyoni-Geberi ^ap eseElothi ^aq ekhunjini loLwandle oluBomvu elizweni leEdoma. 27 UHiramu wasethuma emikhunjini inceku zakhe, amadoda emikhumbi, abazi ulwandle, kanye lenceku zikaSolomoni. 28 Bafika eOfiri ^ar, bathatha khona igolide, amathalenta* angamakhulu amane lamatshumi amabili, baliletha enkosini uSolomoni ^as.
