Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi ʻe Solomone ʻae langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo ia kotoa pē naʻe holi ki ai ʻa Solomone ke ne fai, 
Naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kia Solomone ko hono liunga ua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene hā mai kiate ia ʻi Kipione. 
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Kuo u ongoʻi ʻa hoʻo lotu pea mo hoʻo kole, ʻaia kuo ke fai ʻi hoku ʻao: kuo u fakatapui ʻae fale ni ʻaia kuo ke langa, ke ʻai ki ai ʻa hoku huafa ʻo taʻengata; pea ʻe ʻi ai maʻuaipē ʻa hoku fofonga pea mo hoku loto. 
Pea kapau te ke ʻalu ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu ʻa Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, ʻi he loto moʻoni, mo e angatonu, ke fai ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe, pea ke tauhi ʻa ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau: 
Pehē te u fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo ho puleʻanga ʻi ʻIsileli ke taʻengata, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku talaʻofa kia Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te ke masiva ʻi ha tangata maʻae nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli. 
Ka koeʻuhi kapau te mou momoʻi liliu atu mei he muimui kiate au, ʻakimoutolu pe ko hoʻomou fānau, pea ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻaia kuo u fokotuʻu ʻi homou ʻao, ka mou ʻalu ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, mo lotu ki ai: 
Te u toki motuhi ai ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ʻaia kuo u foaki kiate kinautolu; pea ko e fale ni, ʻaia kuo u fakatapui maʻa hoku huafa, te u liʻaki atu mei hoku ʻao; pea ʻe hoko ʻa ʻIsileli ko e manukiʻanga ʻi he lea fakatātā mo e lea fakakovikovi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai kotoa pē: 
Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he fale ni, ʻoku māʻolunga ni, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ofi ki ai, ʻe ofo ai mo fakaʻiseʻisa; pea te nau pehē, ‘Ko e hā kuo fai pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ni, pea ki he fale ni?’ 
Pea te nau tali mai, ʻo pehē, ‘Koeʻuhi naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻenau ngaahi tamai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea kuo nau puke atu ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻo lotu ki ai, mo tauhi ki ai: ko ia kuo ʻomi ai ʻe Sihova ʻae kovi ni kotoa pē kiate kinautolu.’” 
¶ Pea hili ʻae taʻu ʻe uofulu naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻae langa ʻe Solomone ʻae fale ʻe ua, ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi, 
(Ka kuo ʻatu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ko e sita kia Solomone, mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e paini, pea mo e koula, ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene holi,) naʻe toki foaki ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kia Helami, ʻae kolo ʻe uofulu ʻi he fonua ʻo Kāleli. 
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Helami mei Taia ke ne mamata ki he ngaahi kolo naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe Solomone; pea naʻe ʻikai lelei ia ʻi hono ʻao. 
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae ngaahi kolo ni ʻaia kuo ke foaki kiate au, ʻa hoku kāinga?” Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko e fonua ko Kapuli ʻo aʻu mai ki he ngaahi ʻaho ni. 
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Helami ki he tuʻi ʻae taleniti koula ʻe teau mo e uofulu. 
¶ Pea ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻoe tukuhau ʻaia naʻe toʻo ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi; koeʻuhi ke langa ʻae fale ʻa Sihova, pea mo hono fale ʻoʻona, mo Milo, mo e ʻā ʻo Selūsalema, mo Hasoa, mo Mekito, pea mo Kesa. 
He kuo ʻalu hake ʻa Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ʻo ne kapa ʻa Kesa, mo ne tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi, mo tāmateʻi ʻae kakai Kēnani naʻe nofo ʻi he kolo, pea ne foaki ia ko e meʻaʻofa ki hono ʻofefine, ko e uaifi ʻo Solomone. 
Pea naʻe langa ʻa Kesa ʻe Solomone, pea mo Pete-holoni ki lalo, 
Mo Pealati, pea mo Tatimoa ʻi he toafa, ʻi he fonua, 
Pea mo e ngaahi kolo tukunga koloa ʻaia naʻe maʻu ʻe Solomone, mo e ngaahi kolo maʻa ʻene ngaahi saliote, mo e ngaahi kolo maʻa ʻene kau tangata heka hoosi, pea mo ia naʻe fie langa ʻe Solomone ʻi Selūsalema, pea ʻi Lepanoni, pea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo hono puleʻanga. 
Ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe toenga kakai ʻAmoli, mo e kakai Heti, mo e kakai Pelesi, mo e kakai Hevi, mo e kakai Sepusi, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, 
Mo ʻenau fānau naʻe toe ʻi he fonua ki mui ʻiate kinautolu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa fakaʻauha foki ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko kinautolu ia naʻe maʻu mei ai ʻe Solomone ʻae tukuhau ʻi he ngāue fakahopoate ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni. 
Ka naʻe ʻikai fakahopoate ʻe Solomone ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ka ko e kautau ʻakinautolu, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea mo ʻene houʻeiki, mo ʻene kau pule ki he tau, mo e kau pule ki heʻene ngaahi saliote, pea mo ʻene kau tangata heka hoosi. 
Ko kinautolu naʻe tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he kau pule naʻe puleʻi ʻae ngāue kia Solomone, ko e toko nimangeau ma nimangofulu, pea naʻa nau pule ki he kakai naʻe fai ʻae ngāue. 
¶ Ka naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Felo mei he Kolo ʻo Tevita ki hono fale ʻoʻona ʻaia naʻe langa moʻona: pea hili ia naʻa ne langa ʻa Milo. 
¶ Pea naʻe tuʻo tolu ʻi he taʻu ʻae ʻatu ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu mo e feilaulau fakamelino ʻi he feilaulauʻanga ʻaia naʻa ne fokotuʻu kia Sihova, pea naʻa ne tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻosi ʻae fale. 
¶ Pea naʻe teuteu ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone ha folau ʻoe ngaahi vaka mei ʻEsioni-Kepa, ʻaia ʻoku vāofi mo ʻEloti, ʻi he matātahi ʻoe Tahi Kulokula, ʻi he fonua ko ʻItomi. 
Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Helami ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi he folau, ko e kau toutai naʻe poto ʻi tahi, ke nau ʻalu mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone. 
Pea naʻa nau hoko atu ki Ofeli, ʻonau taufetuku mei ai ʻae koula, ko e taleniti ʻe fāngeau mo e uofulu, ʻo mau ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi ko Solomone.
