DANI David baagbo lɛ, ekɛ sɔlemɔtsu lɛ maa he gbɛjianɔtoo ni Nyɔŋmɔ kɛha ni akwɛ nɔ ni akɛma Yehowa sɔlemɔtsu lɛ ha Salomo. Salomo bɔi sɔlemɔtsu lɛ maa yɛ enɔyeli afi ni ji ejwɛ lɛ mli, ni ehe afii kpawo kɛ fã dani agbe emaa naa. Hii akpei nyɔŋmai abɔ tsu nii yɛ sɔlemɔtsu lɛ he, ni tsũ lɛ maa hé shika babaoo. Nɔ hewɔ ji akɛ, akɛ shika kɛ jwiɛtɛi babaoo tsu nii yɛ mli.

Sɔlemɔtsu lɛ yɛ tsũi wuji enyɔ, tamɔ bɔ ni kpee buu lɛ yɔɔ lɛ nɔŋŋ. Shi tsũi nɛɛ dara fe kpee buu lɛ nɔ̃ lɛ toi enyɔ. Salomo ha akɛ kpaŋmɔ adeka lɛ ma sɔlemɔtsu lɛ mli tsũ ni yɔɔ mligbɛ lɛ mli, ni akɛ nibii krokomɛi ni akɛtoɔ kpee buu lɛ mli lɛ to tsũ kroko lɛ mli.

Beni agbe sɔlemɔtsu lɛ naa lɛ, aye gbijurɔ wulu ko. Salomo kula shi yɛ sɔlemɔtsu lɛ hiɛ ni esɔle, taakɛ onaa yɛ mfoniri lɛ mli lɛ. Salomo kɛɛ Yehowa akɛ: ‘Naa, ŋwɛi kɛ ŋwɛii amli ŋwɛi nyɛɛɛ bo ato, aahu ni shia ni mima nɛɛ. Shi, Oo mi-Nyɔŋmɔ, ofainɛ bo sɔlemɔ ni owebii lɛ sɔleɔ yɛ biɛ nɛɛ lɛ toi.’

Beni Salomo gbe esɔlemɔ lɛ naa lɛ, la jɛ ŋwɛi kɛba. Ebashã kooloi ni agbe ni akɛshãa afɔle lɛ. Ni la ko ni kpɛ́ɔ waa ni jɛ Yehowa ŋɔɔ yi sɔlemɔtsu lɛ mli obɔ. Enɛ tsɔɔ akɛ Yehowa miibo toi, ni ehiɛ esɔ sɔlemɔtsu lɛ kɛ Salomo sɔlemɔ lɛ hu. Yɛ kpee buu lɛ najiaŋ lɛ, agbɛnɛ sɔlemɔtsu lɛ batsɔ he ni gbɔmɛi lɛ baa ni amɛbajáa yɛ.

Salomo kɛ nilee ye maŋtsɛ be kakadaŋŋ, ni gbɔmɛi lɛ ná miishɛɛ. Shi Salomo kɛ yei pii ni jɛ maji krokomɛi amli, ní amɛjáaa Yehowa bote gbalashihilɛ mli. Ani oona amɛteŋ mɔ kome ni miijá amaga lɛ? Yɛ naagbee lɛ Salomo ŋamɛi lɛ ha lɛ hu ebɔi nyɔŋmɔi krokomɛi ajamɔ. Ani ole nɔ ni ba beni Salomo fee nakai lɛ? Ekɛ gbɔmɛi lɛ ehiii shi yɛ mlihilɛ mli dɔŋŋ. Eyitsoŋ bawa waa, ni gbɔmɛi lɛ naaa miishɛɛ dɔŋŋ.

Enɛ ha Yehowa mli fu Salomo, ni ekɛɛ lɛ akɛ: ‘Mahe maŋtsɛyeli lɛ yɛ odɛŋ ni mikɛbaaha mɔ kroko. Mifeŋ enɛ yɛ be mli ni oyɔɔ wala mli lɛ, shi yɛ obinuu lɛ nɔyeli bei amli. Shi mishɔŋ maŋtsɛyeli lɛ shishibii lɛ fɛɛ kɛjɛŋ obinuu lɛ dɛŋ.’ Ha wɔkwɛ bɔ ni enɛ ba lɛ ha.
