Kwathi lapho uBahasha esekuzwile lokho, wayeka ukwakha iRama, wahlala eTirisa.

USolomoni wahlangana ngobuhlobo noFaro inkosi yaseGibithe , wathatha indodakazi kaFaro , wayingenisa emzini kaDavide , waze waqeda ukwakha indlu yakhe, nendlu kaJehova, nogange lwaseJerusalema nxazonke.

Abakhi bakaSolomoni nabakhi bakaHiramu nabaseGebali bawabaza, balungisa imithi namatshe ukwakha indlu.

Kwathi ngomnyaka wamakhulu a mane namashumi ayisishiyagalombili emva kokuphuma kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe , ngomnyaka wesine wokubusa kukaSolomoni phezu kwabakwa-Israyeli, ngenyanga kaZivi eyinyanga yesibili, waqala ukwakha indlu kaJehova.

Kusukela osukwini engakhipha ngalo abantu bami u -Israyeli eGibithe angikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukwakha indlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , kepha ngamkhetha uDavide abe phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

Kwathi uSolomoni eseqedile ukwakha indlu kaJehova , nendlu yenkosi , nakho konke ukufisa kukaSolomoni ayefune ukukwenza,

Indaba yezisebenzi ezabizwa yinkosi uSolomoni ukwakha indlu kaJehova , nendlu yakhe , neMilo, nogange lwaseJerusalema , neHasori, neMegido, neGezeri inje:

nayo yonke imizi yokubekelela uSolomoni ayenayo , nemizi yezinqola zakhe, nemizi yabamahhashi bakhe , nalokhu uSolomoni ayefisa ukwakha khona eJerusalema, naseLebanoni, nasezweni lonke lapho ebusa khona.

Bheka manje , ngokuba uJehova ekukhethile ukwakha indlu ibe yindlu engcwele, qina, ukwenze.

UDavide inkosi wayesema ngezinyawo , wathi: Ngizweni, bafowethu nabantu bakwethu : mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova indlu yokuphumula neyesena belo sikaNkulunkulu wethu; ngangizilungiselele ukwakha.

Ngokuba thina siyizisebenzi kanye noNkulunkulu , nina niyinsimu kaNkulunkulu, niyisakhiwo sikaNkulunkulu. Ukwakha phezu kwesisekelo esiyiso

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Aniyikukhuphuka, ningalwi nabafowenu ; buyelani, kube yilowo nalowo endlini yakhe , ngokuba le nto ivela kimi . Balalela amazwi kaJehova, babuya ekumhlaseleni uJerobowamu. Ukwakha kukaRehobowamu

Kwathi lapho uBahasha esekuzwile lokho , wayeka ukwakha iRama, wamisa umsebenzi wakhe.

USolomoni wayeseqala ukwakha indlu kaJehova eJerusalema entabeni yaseMoriya, lapho uJehova abonakala khona kuDavide uyise , nalapho eselungisile khona endaweni kaDavide esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

Waqala ukwakha ngolwesibili lwenyanga yesibili ngomnyaka wesine wokubusa kwakhe.

Kusukela osukw ini engakhipha ngalo abantu bami u -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe angikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukwakha indlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , futhi angikhethanga muntu ukuba abe ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli,

Makungaphumi emlonyeni wenu nalinye izwi elibolileyo , kodwa kube ngelilungele ukwakha njengokuswelekileyo , ukuze libavezele umusa abezwayo.

Ngokuba ngumuphi kini othi efuna ukwakha umbhoshongo , angaqali ahlale phansi, abale izindleko ukuthi unakho okokuwuqeda na?

Kwase kusuka uZerubabele indodana kaSheyalitiyeli noJeshuwa , indodana kaJosadaki, baqala ukwakha indlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema ; abaprofethi bakaNkulunkulu babenabo bebasiza.

Ngasona leso sikhathi kwafika kubo uThathenayi, umbusi phesheya koMfula, noShethati Bozenayi , nabangane babo , basho kanje kubo , bathi: Ngubani owaniyaleza ukwakha le ndlu nokuqeda lolu gange na?

Sase sibuza kulawo malunga, sasho kuwo kanje, sathi: Ngubani owaniyaleza ukwakha le ndlu nokuqeda lolu gange na?

Ukwakha kwabo kwasukela eMesha kwaze kwafika ngaseSefare , intaba yasempumalanga.

Kanjalo uJehova wabahlakazela emhlabeni wonke , bephuma lapho; bayeka ukwakha umuzi.

Bona, ngiyakubeka namuhla phezu kwezizwe naphezu kwemibuso ukusiphula nokudiliza, ukuchitha nokubhubhisa, ukwakha nokutshala.
