1 Ke kaloku ukumkanikazi waseShebha waluva udaba lukaSolomon, weza kumlinga uSolomon ngemibuzo elukhuni eYerusalem, enesihlwele esinzima kunene, neenkamela ezithwele ubulawu, negolide eninzi, namatye anqabileyo. Weza kuSolomon, wathetha naye konke okube kusentliziyweni yakhe.
2 USolomon wamtyhilela onke amazwi akhe; akubangakho lizwi lifihlakeleyo kuSolomon, angàbanga nako ukumtyhilela lona.
3 Wabubona ukumkanikazi waseShebha ubulumko bukaSolomon, nendlu abeyakhile;
4 nokudla kwetafile yakhe, neendawo zokuhlala kwabakhonzi bakhe, nokuma kwabalungiseleli bakhe nezambatho zabo, nabangcamli bakhe nezambatho zabo, nezinyuko zakhe abe enyuka ngazo ukuya endlwini kaYehova; akwaba sabakho kuqina kwamxhelo kuye.
