23 INkosi uSolomoni yasifunga ngoJehova yathi: “UNkulunkulu kangijezise kakhulu nxa u-Adonija engasoze abulawe ngenxa yesicelo sakhe lesi. 24 Ngifunga ngoJehova uNkulunkulu ophilayo owangibeka esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida ubaba, waqinisa umbuso wami+ futhi wanika mina labendlu yami ubukhosi*+ njengoba nje wathembisa, lamuhla u-Adonija kumele abulawe.”+

 6 Uzababhubhisa abakhuluma amanga.+

UJehova uyabenyanya abalodlakela labangamaqili.+

6 Ungavumeli umlomo wakho ukwenzise isono+ njalo ungakhulumi phambi kwengilosi* uthi bekuliphutha.+ Kungani kumele uNkulunkulu weqiniso akuthukuthelele ngalokho okukhulumileyo, abesediliza umsebenzi wezandla zakho?+
