Solomoni chekaliliyi mwanta waIsarela, Yehova wamwihwili nindi: ‘Chumanyi chiwukukeña neyi nukwinki?’ Solomoni wahosheli nindi: ‘Nichidi hohu kansi, nawa neluki wanyi yuma yinnakwila. Mwani nyinki maana kulonda nitwesha kuhemba chiwahi antu jeyi.’ Yehova wahosheli nindi: ‘Chineli wunalombi maana, nukukwilisha wiikali namaana kubadika antu ejima hamaseki. Nukukwinka cheñi nimaheta amavulu. Nawa neyi wukuñovwahilaña, nakakwilisha wakahandi yaaka yayivulu.’

Solomoni watachikili kutuña tembeli. Wazatishili wuru yasweja kuwaha, siliva, nyitondu nimalola. Amayala niambanda amavulu nankashi elukili nyidimu, azatili mudimu wakutuña tembeli. Chimwahitili yaaka 7, ayimanishili nawa mpinji yakuyihana kudi Yehova yashikili. Mwadiña kameña, nawa hakameña hadiña nyilambu. Solomoni wafukamini kumbidi yakameña nakulomba nindi: ‘Eyi Yehova, iyi tembeli yinakukeheli nawa yayiwahi wanyi yakwila eyi wushakamimu, ilaña itejaku kudifukula kwetu nawa tiyililaku kukulomba kwetu.’ Yehova watiyili ñahi haniyi tembeli nikulomba kwaSolomoni? Solomoni chamanishiliyi hohu kulomba, kesi kafumini mwiwulu nawa kwocheli nyilambu yadiña hakameña. Yehova wayitejeli iyi tembeli. AIsarela chamweniwu chumichi, azañaleli.

Nzambi yeyi, Yehova, nakukiswili.’ Haniyi mpinji, muza waIsarela washakamineña chiwahi nawa antu adiña namuzañalu. Hela chochu, yuma yadiña kwakwihi nakuhimpa.
