4 INkosi uSolomoni yasuka yaya eGibhiyoni isiyakwenza imihlatshelo ngoba yikho lapho okwakulendawo ephakemeyo eyayiqakatheke kulazo zonke.+ Yanikela e-alithareni ngemihlatshelo yokutshiswa engu-1 000.+

63 USolomoni wenza imihlatshelo yobudlelwano+ phambi kukaJehova. Wanikela ngenkomo ezingu-22 000 langezimvu ezingu-120 000. Ngakho inkosi labo bonke abantu bako-Israyeli bathakazelela ukuphela kokwakhiwa kwendlu kaJehova.+

21 Ngelanga elilandelayo baqhubeka benikela imihlatshelo kuJehova njalo besenza iminikelo yokutshiswa+ phambi kukaJehova. Banikela ngamajongosi angu-1 000, langenqama ezingu-1 000, langemvana ezinduna ezingu-1 000, benza leminikelo yokunathwayo.+ Banikela imihlatshelo eminengi kakhulu, besenzela bonke abako-Israyeli.+ 22 Baqhubeka besidla futhi benatha phambi kukaJehova ngalelolanga, bethokoza kakhulu.+ Bambeka okwesibili uSolomoni indodana kaDavida ukuthi abe yinkosi futhi bamgcoba phambi kukaJehova ukuthi abe ngumkhokheli.+ Bagcoba loZadokhi ukuthi abe ngumphristi.+
