- As David's time to die drew near, he charged Solomon his son, saying,
- "I am going the way of all the earth Be strong, therefore, and show yourself a man.
- "Keep the charge of the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commandments, His ordinances, and His testimonies, according to what is written in the Law of Moses, that you may succeed in all that you do and wherever you turn,
- so that the LORD may carry out His promise which He spoke concerning me, saying, 'If your sons are careful of their way, to walk before Me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, you shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.'
- "Now you also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, what he did to the two commanders of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed; he also shed the blood of war in peace. And he put the blood of war on his belt about his waist, and on his sandals on his feet.

- 大卫的死期临近了,就嘱吩他儿子所罗门说,
- 我现在要走世人必走的路。所以,你当刚强,作大丈夫,
- 遵守耶和华你神所吩咐的,照着摩西律法上所写的行主的道,谨守他的律例,诫命,典章,法度。这样,你无论作什么事,不拘往何处去,尽都亨通。
- 耶和华必成就向我所应许的话说,你的子孙若谨慎自己的行为,尽心尽意诚诚实实地行在我面前,就不断人坐以色列的国位。
- 你知道洗鲁雅的儿子约押向我所行的,就是杀了以色列的两个元帅,尼珥的儿子押尼珥和益帖的儿子亚玛撒。他在太平之时流这二人的血,如在争战之时一样,将这血染了腰间束的带和脚上穿的鞋。
