اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 1
| وَشَاخَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ. تَقَدَّمَ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ. وَكَانُوا يُدَثِّرُونَهُ بِٱلثِّيَابِ فَلَمْ يَدْفَأْ. | ١ 1 |
Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he got no heat.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبِيدُهُ: «لِيُفَتِّشُوا لِسَيِّدِنَا ٱلْمَلِكِ عَلَى فَتَاةٍ عَذْرَاءَ، فَلْتَقِفْ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَلْتَكُنْ لَهُ حَاضِنَةً وَلْتَضْطَجِعْ فِي حِضْنِكَ فَيَدْفَأَ سَيِّدُنَا ٱلْمَلِكُ». | ٢ 2 |
Why his servants said to him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.
| فَفَتَّشُوا عَلَى فَتَاةٍ جَمِيلَةٍ فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَوَجَدُوا أَبِيشَجَ ٱلشُّونَمِيَّةَ، فَجَاءُوا بِهَا إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٣ 3 |
So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
| وَكَانَتِ ٱلْفَتَاةُ جَمِيلَةً جِدًّا، فَكَانَتْ حَاضِنَةَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. وَكَانَتْ تَخْدِمُهُ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْمَلِكَ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهَا. | ٤ 4 |
And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
| ثُمَّ إِنَّ أَدُونِيَّا ٱبْنَ حَجِّيثَ تَرَفَّعَ قَائِلًا: «أَنَا أَمْلِكُ». وَعَدَّ لِنَفْسِهِ عَجَلَاتٍ وَفُرْسَانًا وَخَمْسِينَ رَجُلًا يَجْرُونَ أَمَامَهُ. | ٥ 5 |
Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
| وَلَمْ يُغْضِبْهُ أَبُوهُ قَطُّ قَائِلًا: «لِمَاذَا فَعَلْتَ هَكَذَا؟» وَهُوَ أَيْضًا جَمِيلُ ٱلصُّورَةِ جِدًّا، وَقَدْ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ بَعْدَ أَبْشَالُومَ. | ٦ 6 |
And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why have you done so? and he also was a very goodly man; and his mother bore him after Absalom.
| وَكَانَ كَلَامُهُ مَعَ يُوآبَ ٱبْنِ صَرُويَةَ، وَمَعَ أَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ، فَأَعَانَا أَدُونِيَّا. | ٧ 7 |
And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him.
| وَأَمَّا صَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَنَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ وَشِمْعِي وَرِيعِي وَٱلْجَبَابِرَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ لِدَاوُدَ فَلَمْ يَكُونُوا مَعَ أَدُونِيَّا. | ٨ 8 |
But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.
| فَذَبَحَ أَدُونِيَّا غَنَمًا وَبَقَرًا وَمَعْلُوفَاتٍ عِنْدَ حَجَرِ ٱلزَّاحِفَةِ ٱلَّذِي بِجَانِبِ عَيْنِ رُوجَلَ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ إِخْوَتِهِ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ وَجَمِيعَ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا عَبِيدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، | ٩ 9 |
And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by Enrogel, and called all his brothers the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah the king’s servants:
| وَأَمَّا نَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ وَبَنَايَاهُو وَٱلْجَبَابِرَةُ وَسُلَيْمَانُ أَخُوهُ فَلَمْ يَدْعُهُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.
| فَكَلَّمَ نَاثَانُ بَثْشَبَعَ أُمِّ سُلَيْمَانَ قَائِلًا: «أَمَا سَمِعْتِ أَنَّ أَدُونِيَّا ٱبْنَ حَجِّيثَ قَدْ مَلَكَ، وَسَيِّدُنَا دَاوُدُ لَا يَعْلَمُ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Why Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Have you not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith does reign, and David our lord knows it not?
| فَٱلْآنَ تَعَالَيْ أُشِيرُ عَلَيْكِ مَشُورَةً فَتُنَجِّي نَفْسَكِ وَنَفْسَ ٱبْنِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Now therefore come, let me, I pray you, give you counsel, that you may save your own life, and the life of your son Solomon.
| اِذْهَبِي وَٱدْخُلِي إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ وَقُولِي لَهُ: أَمَا حَلَفْتَ أَنْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ لِأَمَتِكَ قَائِلًا: إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنَكِ يَمْلِكُ بَعْدِي، وَهُوَ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي؟ فَلِمَاذَا مَلَكَ أَدُونِيَّا؟ | ١٣ 13 |
Go and get you in to king David, and say to him, Did not you, my lord, O king, swear to your handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then does Adonijah reign?
| وَفِيمَا أَنْتِ مُتَكَلِّمَةٌ هُنَاكَ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، أَدْخُلُ أَنَا وَرَاءَكِ وَأُكَمِّلُ كَلَامَكِ». | ١٤ 14 |
Behold, while you yet talk there with the king, I also will come in after you, and confirm your words.
| فَدَخَلَتْ بَثْشَبَعُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ إِلَى ٱلْمِخْدَعِ. وَكَانَ ٱلْمَلِكُ قَدْ شَاخَ جِدًّا وَكَانَتْ أَبِيشَجُ ٱلشُّونَمِيَّةُ تَخْدِمُ ٱلْمَلِكَ. | ١٥ 15 |
And Bathsheba went in to the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite ministered to the king.
| فَخَرَّتْ بَثْشَبَعُ وَسَجَدَتْ لِلْمَلِكِ، فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «مَا لَكِ؟» | ١٦ 16 |
And Bathsheba bowed, and did obeisance to the king. And the king said, What would you?
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ «أَنْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي حَلَفْتَ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِأَمَتِكَ قَائِلًا: إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنَكِ يَمْلِكُ بَعْدِي وَهُوَ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي. | ١٧ 17 |
And she said to him, My lord, you swore by the LORD your God to your handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.
| وَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا أَدُونِيَّا قَدْ مَلَكَ. وَٱلْآنَ أَنْتَ يَاسَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ لَا تَعْلَمُ ذَلِكَ. | ١٨ 18 |
And now, behold, Adonijah reigns; and now, my lord the king, you know it not:
| وَقَدْ ذَبَحَ ثِيرَانًا وَمَعْلُوفَاتٍ وَغَنَمًا بِكَثْرَةٍ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَأَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ وَيُوآبَ رَئِيسَ ٱلْجَيْشِ، وَلَمْ يَدْعُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَبْدَكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
And he has slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and has called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon your servant has he not called.
| وَأَنْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ أَعْيُنُ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَحْوَكَ لِكَيْ تُخْبِرَهُمْ مَنْ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ بَعْدَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And you, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, that you should tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
| فَيَكُونُ إِذَا ٱضْطَجَعَ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ أَنِّي أَنَا وَٱبْنِي سُلَيْمَانَ نُحْسَبُ مُذْنِبَيْنِ». | ٢١ 21 |
Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هِيَ مُتَكَلِّمَةٌ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، إِذَا نَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ دَاخِلٌ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And, see, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.
| فَأَخْبَرُوا ٱلْمَلِكَ قَائِلِينَ: «هُوَذَا نَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ». فَدَخَلَ إِلَى أَمَامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَسَجَدَ لِلْمَلِكِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And they told the king, saying, Behold Nathan the prophet. And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
| وَقَالَ نَاثَانُ: «يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكَ، أَأَنْتَ قُلْتَ إِنَّ أَدُونِيَّا يَمْلِكُ بَعْدِي وَهُوَ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي؟ | ٢٤ 24 |
And Nathan said, My lord, O king, have you said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne?
| لِأَنَّهُ نَزَلَ ٱلْيَوْمَ وَذَبَحَ ثِيرَانًا وَمَعْلُوفَاتٍ وَغَنَمًا بِكَثْرَةٍ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ وَرُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْجَيْشِ وَأَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ، وَهَا هُمْ يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ أَمَامَهُ وَيَقُولُونَ: لِيَحْيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَدُونِيَّا. | ٢٥ 25 |
For he is gone down this day, and has slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king’s sons, and the captains of the host, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they eat and drink before him, and say, God save king Adonijah.
| وَأَمَّا أَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَصَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَسُلَيْمَانُ عَبْدُكَ فَلَمْ يَدْعُنَا. | ٢٦ 26 |
But me, even me your servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon, has he not called.
| هَلْ مِنْ قِبَلِ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ كَانَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ، وَلَمْ تُعْلِمْ عَبْدَكَ مَنْ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ بَعْدَهُ؟». | ٢٧ 27 |
Is this thing done by my lord the king, and you have not showed it to your servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?
| فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ وَقَالَ: «اُدْعُ لِي بَثْشَبَعَ». فَدَخَلَتْ إِلَى أَمَامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَوَقَفَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Then king David answered and said, Call me Bathsheba. And she came into the king’s presence, and stood before the king.
| فَحَلَفَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي فَدَى نَفْسِي مِنْ كُلِّ ضِيقَةٍ، | ٢٩ 29 |
And the king swore, and said, As the LORD lives, that has redeemed my soul out of all distress,
| إِنَّهُ كَمَا حَلَفْتُ لَكِ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنَكِ يَمْلِكُ بَعْدِي، وَهُوَ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي عِوَضًا عَنِّي، كَذَلِكَ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ». | ٣٠ 30 |
Even as I swore to you by the LORD God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day.
| فَخَرَّتْ بَثْشَبَعُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَتْ لِلْمَلِكِ وَقَالَتْ: «لِيَحْيَ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». | ٣١ 31 |
Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.
| وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ: «اُدْعُ لِي صَادُوقَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ وَنَاثَانَ ٱلنَّبِيَّ وَبَنَايَاهُوَ بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ». فَدَخَلُوا إِلَى أَمَامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.
| فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَهُمْ: «خُذُوا مَعَكُمْ عَبِيدَ سَيِّدِكُمْ، وَأَرْكِبُوا سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنِي عَلَى ٱلْبَغْلَةِ ٱلَّتِي لِي، وَٱنْزِلُوا بِهِ إِلَى جِيحُونَ، | ٣٣ 33 |
The king also said to them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:
| وَلْيَمْسَحْهُ هُنَاكَ صَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ مَلِكًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَٱضْرِبُوا بِٱلْبُوقِ وَقُولُوا: لِيَحْيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow you with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.
| وَتَصْعَدُونَ وَرَاءَهُ، فَيَأْتِي وَيَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي وَهُوَ يَمْلِكُ عِوَضًا عَنِّي، وَإِيَّاهُ قَدْ أَوْصَيْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ رَئِيسًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا». | ٣٥ 35 |
Then you shall come up after him, that he may come and sit on my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.
| فَأَجَابَ بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْمَلِكَ وَقَالَ: «آمِينَ. هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٣٦ 36 |
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the king say so too.
| كَمَا كَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ كَذَلِكَ لِيَكُنْ مَعَ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَيَجْعَلْ كُرْسِيَّهُ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ كُرْسِيِّ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ». | ٣٧ 37 |
As the LORD has been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.
| فَنَزَلَ صَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَٱلْجَلَّادُونَ وَٱلسُّعَاةُ، وَأَرْكَبُوا سُلَيْمَانَ عَلَى بَغْلَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ، وَذَهَبُوا بِهِ إِلَى جِيحُونَ. | ٣٨ 38 |
So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride on king David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.
| فَأَخَذَ صَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ قَرْنَ ٱلدُّهْنِ مِنَ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ وَمَسَحَ سُلَيْمَانَ. وَضَرَبُوا بِٱلْبُوقِ، وَقَالَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ: «لِيَحْيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ». | ٣٩ 39 |
And Zadok the priest took an horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, God save king Solomon.
| وَصَعِدَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَرَاءَهُ. وَكَانَ ٱلشَّعْبُ يَضْرِبُونَ بِٱلنَّايِ وَيَفْرَحُونَ فَرَحًا عَظِيمًا حَتَّى ٱنْشَقَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِنْ أَصْوَاتِهِمْ. | ٤٠ 40 |
And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.
| فَسَمِعَ أَدُونِيَّا وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْمَدْعُوِّينَ ٱلّذِينَ عِنْدهُ بَعْدَمَا ٱنْتَهَوْا مِنَ ٱلْأَكْلِ. وَسَمِعَ يُوآبُ صَوْتَ ٱلْبُوقِ فَقَالَ: «لِمَاذَا صَوْتُ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ مُضْطَرِبٌ؟» | ٤١ 41 |
And Adonijah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had made an end of eating. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, Why is this noise of the city being in an uproar?
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ إِذَا بِيُونَاثَانَ بْنِ أَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ قَدْ جَاءَ، فَقَالَ أَدُونِيَّا: «تَعَالَ، لِأَنَّكَ ذُو بَأْسٍ وَتُبَشِّرُ بِٱلْخَيْرِ». | ٤٢ 42 |
And while he yet spoke, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came; and Adonijah said to him, Come in; for you are a valiant man, and bring good tidings.
| فَأَجَابَ يُونَاثَانُ وَقَالَ لِأَدُونِيَّا: «بَلْ سَيِّدُنَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ قَدْ مَلَّكَ سُلَيْمَانَ. | ٤٣ 43 |
And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Truly our lord king David has made Solomon king.
| وَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ مَعَهُ صَادُوقَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ وَنَاثَانَ ٱلنَّبِيَّ وَبَنَايَاهُوَ بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَٱلْجَلَّادِينَ وَٱلسُّعَاةَ، وَقَدْ أَرْكَبُوهُ عَلَى بَغْلَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، | ٤٤ 44 |
And the king has sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they have caused him to ride on the king’s mule:
| وَمَسَحَهُ صَادُوقُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ مَلِكًا فِي جِيحُونَ، وَصَعِدُوا مِنْ هُنَاكَ فَرِحِينَ حَتَّى ٱضْطَرَبَتِ ٱلْقَرْيَةُ. هَذَا هُوَ ٱلصَّوْتُ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعْتُمُوهُ. | ٤٥ 45 |
And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are come up from there rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that you have heard.
| وَأَيْضًا قَدْ جَلَسَ سُلَيْمَانُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ. | ٤٦ 46 |
And also Solomon sits on the throne of the kingdom.
| وَأَيْضًا جَاءَ عَبِيدُ ٱلْمَلِكِ لِيُبَارِكُوا سَيِّدَنَا ٱلْمَلِكَ دَاوُدَ قَائِلِينَ: يَجْعَلُ إِلَهُكَ ٱسْمَ سُلَيْمَانَ أَحْسَنَ مِنِ ٱسْمِكَ، وَكُرْسِيَّهُ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ كُرْسِيِّكَ. فَسَجَدَ ٱلْمَلِكُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ. | ٤٧ 47 |
And moreover the king’s servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne. And the king bowed himself on the bed.
| وَأَيْضًا هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ: مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَانِيَ ٱلْيَوْمَ مَنْ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّي وَعَيْنَايَ تُبْصِرَانِ». | ٤٨ 48 |
And also thus said the king, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which has given one to sit on my throne this day, my eyes even seeing it.
| فَٱرْتَعَدَ وَقَامَ جَمِيعُ مَدْعُوِّي أَدُونِيَّا، وَذَهَبُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي طَرِيقِهِ. | ٤٩ 49 |
And all the guests that were with Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.
| وَخَافَ أَدُونِيَّا مِنْ قِبَلِ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَقَامَ وَٱنْطَلَقَ وَتَمَسَّكَ بِقُرُونِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ. | ٥٠ 50 |
And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
| فَأُخْبِرَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا أَدُونِيَّا خَائِفٌ مِنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَهُوَذَا قَدْ تَمَسَّكَ بِقُرُونِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ قَائِلًا: لِيَحْلِفْ لِي ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ إِنَّهُ لَا يَقْتُلُ عَبْدَهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ». | ٥١ 51 |
And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah fears king Solomon: for, see, he has caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear to me today that he will not slay his servant with the sword.
| فَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ: «إِنْ كَانَ ذَا فَضِيلَةٍ لَا يَسْقُطُ مِنْ شَعْرِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ وُجِدَ بِهِ شَرٌّ فَإِنَّهُ يَمُوتُ». | ٥٢ 52 |
