1Ke kaloku ukumkanikazi waseShebha waliva ilizwi likaSolomon, weza kumlinga uSolomon ngemibuzo enzima eYerusalem, enesihlwele esikhulu kunene, neenkamela ezithwele ubulawu, negolide eninzi, namatye anqabileyo; wathi akufika; Wathetha kuSolomon ngayo yonke into esentliziyweni yakhe. 2uSolomon wamxelela yonke imibuzo yakhe, yaye akukho nto ifihlakeleyo kuSolomon angazange amxelele yona. 3Wabubona ukumkanikazi waseShebha ubulumko bukaSolomon, nendlu awayakhayo; 4nokudla kwetafile yakhe, nezihlalo zabakhonzi bakhe, nenkonzo yabakhonzi bakhe, neempahla zabo; nabakhonzi bakhe neempahla zabo; nokuma kwakhe ukunyuka kwakhe ukuya endlwini kaYehova; akwaba sabakho kuphefumla kuye. 5Wathi kukumkani, Lilizwi eliyinyaniso, endilivileyo ezweni lam, ngezenzo zakho nobulumko bakho. 6Andikholwanga ngamazwi abo, ndada ndeza, ababona amehlo am; uyabona, andixelelwanga nesiqingatha esi sobuninzi bobulumko bakho; ngokuba ulugqithile udaba endiluvileyo. 7Anoyolo amadoda akho, banoyolo aba bakhonzi bakho bemiyo phambi kwakho amaxesha onke, bebuva ubulumko bakho. 8Makabongwe uYehova uThixo wakho, okunoneleleyo, ukukubeka etroneni yakhe, ube ngukumkani kaYehova uThixo wakho; ngokuba uThixo wakho wawathanda amaSirayeli, ukuba awamise ngonaphakade; wambeka ukumkani wakho phezu kwawo ukuba enze ngokwesiko nangobulungisa. 9Ukumkani wanika ukumkani ikhulu elinamanci amabini eetalente zegolide, nasebulawini into eninzi, namatye anqabileyo; yaye akuzange kubekho zibulawu zifana nezo ukumkanikazi waseShebha wazinika uKumkani uSolomon. 10Yaye abakhonzi bakaHiram nabakhonzi bakaSolomon, ababeze negolide evela kwaOfire, beza nemithi yeallum namatye axabisekileyo. 11Ukumkani wazenza iivaranda zendlu kaYehova, nezendlu yokumkani, ngemialgumi, neehadi, nemirhubhe yeemvumi; yaye akazange abonwe umntu onjalo ngaphambili kwilizwe lakwaYuda. 12Ukumkani uSolomon wanika ukumkanikazi waseShebha konke awayekunqwenela, konke awayekucelile; ngaphandle koko wayekuzisele ukumkani. Wajika waya ezweni lakhe, yena nabakhonzi bakhe. 13Ubunzima begolide awazuzayo uSolomon ngomnyaka, baba ngamakhulu omathandathu anamanci mathandathu anesithandathu eetalente zegolide; 14ingekuko oko kweziswa ngamasela nabarhwebi. Bonke ookumkani bama-Arabhi nabalawuli belizwe babezisa igolide nesilivere kuSolomon. 15Ukumkani uSolomon wenza amakhulu amabini eeshekele zegolide ekhandiweyo; 16Wenza amakhulu amathathu amakhaka egolide ekhandiweyo; Ukumkani wawabeka endlwini yehlathi laseLebhanon. 17Ngaphezu koko, ukumkani wenza netrone enkulu yophondo lwendlovu waza wayaleka ngegolide esulungekileyo. 18Kwakukho izinyuko ezithandathu ezikhokelela etroneni, kunye nezihlalo zeenyawo zegolide, ezinamathele etroneni leyo, nezixhaso macala omabini esihlalo eso, kumi iingonyama ezimbini ngasezixhasweni. 19Kwakukho iingonyama ezilishumi elinambini khona ezinyukweni ezithandathu, ngapha nangapha; Akukho nto injengaleyo yenziweyo kuye nawuphi na urhulumente. 20Zonke iimpahla zokumkani uSolomon zabe zezegolide, nempahla yonke yendlu yehlathi laseLebhanon yabe iyeyegolide ecikizekileyo; kwakungekho nto yayibalwa ngemihla kaSolomon. 21Ngokuba iinqanawa zokumkani zaya eTarshishe nabakhonzi bakaHiram; Rhoqo ngeminyaka emithathu kwafika iinqanawa ezivela eTarshishe zithwele igolide, isilivere, iimpondo zeendlovu, iinkawu neepikoko. 22Waba mkhulu ke ukumkani uSolomon, ngaphezu kookumkani bonke behlabathi, ngobutyebi nangobulumko. 23Bonke ookumkani behlabathi bafuna ukubona ubuso bukaSolomon, ukuba beve ubulumko bakhe, awayebunike entliziyweni yakhe uThixo. 24Elowo wazisa isipho sakhe: iimpahla zesilivere, neempahla zegolide, neempahla, nemisonto, nobulawu, namahashe, noimeyile, iminyaka ngeminyaka. 25uSolomon ubenamawaka amane amahashe neenqwelo zokulwa, namawaka alishumi elinamabini amahashe akhwelwayo; wayibeka emizini yemfazwe, nakukumkani waseYerusalem. 26Ubelawula ookumkani bonke, ethabathela kuwo uMlambo, naselizweni lamaFilisti, wesa nasemdeni waseYiputa. 27uYehova wayenza isilivere yanjengamatye eYerusalem, nemisedare wayenza yanjengemithombe yasezihlanjeni, ukuba mininzi. 28Bawazisa amahashe kaSolomon eYiputa, nasezizweni zonke; 29Ezinye izinto zikaSolomon, ezokuqala nezokugqibela, azibhalwanga na encwadini yomprofeti uNatan, nasesiprofetweni sika-Ahiya waseShilo, nasemibonweni kaIdo, imboni, ngoYarobheham umshumayeli unyana kaNebhati? 30uSolomon waba ngukumkani kumaSirayeli onke iminyaka emashumi mane eYerusalem. 31uSolomon walala kooyise, wangcwatyelwa emzini kaDavide uyise; unyana wakhe uRehobhoham waqalisa ukulawula esikhundleni sakhe.
