Ukwakhiwa kwethempeli
1UDavida wasesithi: Le yindlu yeNKOSI uNkulunkulu, leli lilathi lomnikelo wokutshiswa likaIsrayeli.
2UDavida waselaya ukuthi abafokazi ababesezweni lakoIsrayeli babuthwe; waqasha abakhi ukubaza amatshe abaziweyo ukwakha indlu kaNkulunkulu.
3UDavide walungisa insimbi ngobuningi bezikhonkwane zeminyango yamasango nezokuhlanganisa; nethusi eliningi elingenasisindo;
4nemisedari eminingi, ngokuba abaseSidoni nabaseTire baletha imisedari eminingi kuDavide.
5UDavida wasesithi: USolomoni indodana yami usemncane, uthambile, lendlu ezakwakhelwa uJehova izakuba nkulu kakhulu, ibe ledumo lenkazimulo emazweni wonke; Kanjalo uDavide walungisa kakhulu ngaphambi kokufa kwakhe.
6Wayesebiza uSolomoni indodana yakhe, wamyala ukuba akhele uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli indlu.
7UDavide wathi kuSolomoni: “Ndodana yami, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami indlu.
8Kepha izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi: “Uchithile igazi eliningi, ulwa izimpi ezinkulu; awuyikwakhela igama lami indlu, ngokuba uchithile igazi eliningi emhlabeni phambi kwamehlo ami.
9Bheka, uyakuzalelwa indodana eyakuba ngumuntu wokuthula; ngiyakumnika ukuphumula ezitheni zakhe nxazonke, ngokuba igama lakhe liyakuba nguSolomoni, nginike u-Israyeli ukuthula nokuzola ezinsukwini zakhe.
10Nguye ozakwakhela ibizo lami indlu; yena uyakuba yindodana Kimi, mina ngibe nguyise wayo; ngiyakumisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakhe phezu kuka-Israyeli kuze kube phakade.
11Manje, ndodana yami, uJehova makabe nawe! uphumelele wakhe indlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho njengokukhuluma kwakhe ngawe.
12NguJehova kuphela okunika ukuhlakanipha nokuqondisisa, futhi uyakuyala ngo-Israyeli, ukuze ugcine umthetho kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.
13Khona-ke uyakuba nempumelelo, uma ulalela ukwenza izimiso nezahlulelo uJehova ayala ngakho uMose ngo-Israyeli: qina, uqine; ningesabi, ningapheli amandla.
14Bheka, ekuhluphekeni kwami ngilungisele indlu kaJehova amathalenta ayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu egolide namatalenta ayizinkulungwane eziyinkulungwane esiliva; neyethusi nensimbi ezingenasisindo; ngoba kuchichima; Ngalungisa nokhuni namatshe; futhi ungakwazi ukwengeza kukho.
15Ngaphezu kwalokho, kukhona kanye nawe ngobuningi izisebenzi, ababazi bamatshe nabasebenza ngamatshe nangemithi, nazo zonke izinhlobo zamadoda anobuqili kuzo zonke izinhlobo zomsebenzi.
16Igolide, isiliva, ithusi, nensimbi, akunakubalwa. Sukuma wenze, uJehova abe nawe.
17UDavide wayala zonke izikhulu zakwa-Israyeli ukuba zisize uSolomoni indodana yakhe, wathi:
18UJehova uNkulunkulu wenu akanani na? Akaniphumuzanga na? ngokuba unikele esandleni sami abakhileyo ezweni; izwe lanqotshwa phambi kukaJehova naphambi kwabantu bakhe.
19Manje nikelani inhliziyo yenu nomphefumulo wenu ekufuneni uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu; sukani, nakhe indlu engcwele kaJehova uNkulunkulu, nilethe umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova nezitsha ezingcwele zikaNkulunkulu endlini eyakwakhelwa igama likaJehova.
