Wayesehamba uBati Sheba, waya enkosini uSolomoni ukuba amkhulumele u-Adoniya kuyo. Inkosi yasukuma ukumhlangabeza, yamkhothamela, yahlala esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi , yambekela unina wenkosi isihlalo , wahlala ngakwesokunene sayo.

Yasukuma, yangena endlini; yathela amafutha ekhanda lakhe , yathi kuye: Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Ngikugcobile ube yinkosi yabantu bakaJehova kwa-Israyeli.

Kepha izwi lafinyelela enkosini yaseNineve ; yasukuma esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi, yakhumula ingubo yayo , yazimboza ngendwangu yamasaka , yahlala phansi emlotheni.
