UDavide wathi ku -Orinani: Nginike indawo yalesi sibuya ukub a ngakhele uJehova i-altare kuyo: uyakunginika yona ngemali epheleleyo ukuba lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

Inkosi uDavide yathi ku -Orinani: Qha, ngiyakukuthenga nokukuthenga ngemali epheleleyo , ngokuba angizukumthathela uJehova okungokwakho , nginikele ngomnikelo wokushiswa ngengikuthole ngeze.

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.

unike uSolomoni indodana yami inhliziyo epheleleyo ukuba agcine imiyalo yakho, nobufakazi bakho, nezimiso zakho, nokwenza konke lokhu, nokwakha ithempeli engililungiseleyo.

Abantu bajabula ngokunikela kwabo ngenhliziyo , ngokuba banikela ngenhliziyo epheleleyo kuJehova; naye uDavide inkosi wajabula ngokujabula okukhulu. Ukubonga nokukhuleka kukaDavide

U-Abisalomu wahlala eJerusalema iminyaka emibili epheleleyo , engabuboni ubuso benkosi.
