17 Ndiyazi, Thixo wam, ukuba uyayicikida intliziyo; ukholiswa kokuthe tye. Mna ke, ekuthini tye kwentliziyo yam, ndizinike ngokuqhutywa yintliziyo zonke ezi zinto. Kaloku abantu bakho aba bakhoyo apha, ndibone ngovuyo benikela kuwe ngokuqhutywa yintliziyo.
18 Yehova, Thixo ka-Abraham, noIsake, noSirayeli, oobawo bethu, kúgcine ngonaphakade oko ekuyileni kweengcinga zeentliziyo zabantu bakho, uyibhekise kuwe intliziyo yabo;
19 uSolomon unyana wam umnike intliziyo ephelelisileyo, yokugcina imithetho yakho, nezingqino zakho, nemimiselo yakho, ayenze yonke, alakhe eli bhotwe ndililungiseleleyo.
20 Wathi uDavide kwibandla lonke, Khanibonge uYehova uThixo wethu. Labonga ke ibandla lonke uYehova uThixo wooyise, bathoba, baqubuda kuYehova nakukumkani.
21 Babingelela kuYehova imibingelelo, banyusa amadini anyukayo kuYehova kwakusa ngengomso, iinkunzi ezintsha zeenkomo zaliwaka, iinkunzi zeegusha zaliwaka, iimvana zaliwaka, neminikelo yawo ethululwayo, nemibingelelo yoxolo emininzi, ngenxa yamaSirayeli onke.
22 Badla basela ngaloo mini phambi koYehova ngovuyo olukhulu.USolomon unyana kaDavide bamenza ukumkani ngokwesibini; bamthambisa phambi koYehova ukuba abe yingànga, noTsadoki abe ngumbingeleli.
23 Wahlala ke uSolomon etroneni kaYehova, engukumkani esikhundleni sikaDavide uyise, wenempumelelo; ambeka onke amaSirayeli.
