Mumwaka wamuchiwana muwangana wenyi, Solomone mwaputuka kutunga tembele, kaha nahahita myaka yitanu nayivali nachimbwa chamwaka numba yikume. Hatembele hanakuzata vihita vyavatu, kaha zuvo yinafwiki mali amavulu. Mwomwo vanayitungisa chikuma ulu napalata.
Tembele yili natupete twatunene tuvali, nge tuze twamutavanaku. Oloze tupete kana twatunene kuhambakana tuze twamutavanaku mapapa kavali. Solomone mwahaka chikasha chalushiko mukapete kamukachi katembele, kaha mukapete kakwavo hikuhakamo vyuma vikwavo valaminenga mutavanaku.
Omu vanakumisa tembele, chilika chachinene chinakwate. Solomone kuya hamambuli fuka kulutwe lwatembele nakulomba, nge muuli nakumona hamuvwimbimbi. Solomone mwamba kuli Yehova ngwenyi: ‘Nge lilu nalilu linakukehela, nyize zuvo eyi ngunatungu? Oloze Ove Kalunga kami, achivwilile kulomba chavatu jove chachihela chino.’

Chikiko kusolola nge Yehova anakwivwilila, nakwivwila tembele nakulomba chaSolomone kuwaha. Kutembele jino kukiko navayanga vatu nakulemesa Kalunga, keshi kutavanakuko.
