13 Hamba enkosini uDavida ufike uthi kuyo, ‘Angithi nguwe nkosi owafunga encekwini yakho wathi: “Indodana yakho uSolomoni izakuba yinkosi ngemva kwami futhi yiyo ezahlala esihlalweni sami sobukhosi.”+ Manje kungani u-Adonija eseyinkosi?’

9 Kodwa uzakuba lendodana+ ezakuba ngumuntu wokuthula.* Ngizayiphumuza kuzo zonke izitha zayo eziyigombolozeleyo+ ngoba ibizo layo kuzathiwa nguSolomoni.*+ Ngensuku zayo+ abantu bako-Israyeli bazakuba lokuthula lokuhlaliseka. 10 Yiyo ezangakhela indlu ezakwenza ibizo lami lidunyiswe.+ Izakuba yindodana yami, mina ngibe nguyise.+ Isihlalo sayo sobukhosi ngizasimisa siqine phezu kwabako-Israyeli kuze kube nini lanini.’+
