9 “Wena Solomoni, ndodana yami, yazi uNkulunkulu kayihlo, umkhonze ngenhliziyo epheleleyo nangenhliziyo ethokozayo, ngokuba uJehova uhlola izinhliziyo zonke, uqonda zonke izizindlo zemicabango; uma umfuna, uyakufunyanwa nguye; kepha uma umshiya, uyakukulahla kuze kube phakade.
10 Bheka manje, ngokuba uJehova ekukhethile ukwakha indlu ibe yindlu engcwele, qina, ukwenze.”
11 UDavide wamnika uSolomoni indodana yakhe isifanekiso sompheme nesezindlu zethempeli, nesengcebo yalo, nesamakamelo alo aphezulu, nesamakamelo alo angaphakathi, nesendlu yesihlalo somusa;
12 nesifanekiso sakho konke ayenakho emicabangweni yakhe ngamagceke endlu kaJehova, nangamakamelo nxazonke, nangengcebo yendlu kaNkulunkulu, nangengcebo yezinto ezingcwele;
13 nangezigaba zabapristi nezamaLevi, nangawo wonke umsebenzi wenkonzo yendlu kaJehova, nangazo zonke izitsha zenkonzo endlini kaJehova;
14 nangegolide isisindo segolide lezinto zonke zezinkonzo ngezinkonzo, nangezinto zonke zesiliva isisindo sazo, zonke izinto zezinkonzo ngezinkonzo;
15 nangesisindo sezinti zezibani zegolide kanye nezibani zazo zegolide, nesisindo salolo nalolo luthi lwesibani kanye nezibani zalo, nangesezinti zesiliva isisindo sothi kanye nezibani zalo njengomsebenzi walolo nalolo luthi;
