1 Kepha uSolomoni wakha indlu yakhe iminyaka eyishumi nantathu, wayiqeda indlu yakhe yonke.
2 Wakha nendlu yehlathi laseLebanoni; ubude bayo babuyizingalo eziyikhulu, nobubanzi bayo babuyizingalo ezingamashumi ayisihlanu, nokuphakama kwayo kwakuyizingalo ezingamashumi amathathu phezu kwezinhla ezine zezinsika zemisedari,* imishayo yemisedari iphezu kwezinsika.
3 Yafulelwa ngemisedari* phezu kwemishayo engamashumi amane nanhlanu eyayiphezu kwezinsika eziyishumi nanhlanu, uhla lulunye.
4 Kwakukhona amahele ayizinhla ezintathu; ifasitele lalibhekene nefasitele izinhla ezintathu.
5 Yonke iminyango nezinsika kwakuyizinhlangothi ezine ngemishayo; ifasitele lalibhekene nefasitele izinhla ezintathu.
6 Wenza indlu yezinsika; ubude bayo babuyizingalo ezingamashumi ayisihlanu; nobubanzi bayo babuyizingalo ezingamashumi amathathu, inompheme nezinsika phambi kwayo, naphambi kwazo yisikhwelo.
