2 INkosi uDavida yasukuma yathi:

“Zwanini bafowethu lani bantu bami. Ngangifisa kakhulu* ukwakha indlu okuzahlala kuyo ibhokisi lesivumelwano sikaJehova, njalo ezakuba yisenabelo* sikaNkulunkulu wethu+ futhi sengiwenzile amalungiselelo okwakha.+

48 Kodwa oPhezukonke kahlali ezindlini ezenziwe ngezandla,+ njengoba nje umphrofethi esithi: 49 ‘Izulu liyisihlalo sami sobukhosi,+ lomhlaba uyisenabelo* senyawo zami.+ Manje yindlu enjani lina elingangakhela yona? Lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguJehova.* Ingaba ngaphi indawo yami yokuphumula? 50 Isandla sami ayisiso yini esenze konke lokhu?’+
