9 Ukumkanikazi wanika ukumkani ikhulu elinamanci amabini eetalente* zegolide, nasebulawini into eninzi kunene, namatye anqabileyo; akuzanga kube sabakho bulawu bungangobo, ukumkanikazi waseShebha wàbunika ukumkani uSolomon.
10 Kananjalo abakhonzi bakaHiram nabakhonzi bakaSolomon, abeza negolide bevela kwaOfire, beza nemialgumi* namatye anqabileyo.
11 Imialgumi leyo ukumkani wayenza izinyuko zendlu kaYehova, nezendlu yokumkani, neehadi, nemirhubhe yeemvumi; akuzanga kubonwe injalo ngaphambili ezweni lakwaYuda.
12 Ke ukumkani uSolomon wamnika ukumkanikazi waseShebha konke ukuthanda kwakhe awakucelayo; kukodwa khona awakuzìsayo kukumkani. Wajika ke waya ezweni lakhe, yena nabakhonzi bakhe.
13 Ke kaloku ukulinganiswa kwegolide, eyeza kuSolomon ngamnyaka mnye, kwaba ngamakhulu amathandathu anamanci amathandathu anesithandathu iitalente zegolide,
14 iyodwa eyabarhwebi, nebiziswa ngabathengisi, neyookumkani bonke baseArabhi, neyamabamba elizwe, abezisa igolide nesilivere kuSolomon.
15 Ukumkani uSolomon wenza amakhulu amabini amakhaka egolide engumkhando; zangamakhulu amathandathu iishekele* zegolide engumkhando, awaleka ngazo khaka linye.
