1 مُلُوك 1
| وَشَاخَ الْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ وَطَعَنَ فِي السِّنِّ، فَكَانُوا يُدَثِّرُونَهُ بِالأَغْطِيَةِ فَلا يَشْعُرُ بِالدِّفْءِ. | ١ 1 |
Now when King Dauid was olde, and striken in yeeres, they couered him with clothes, but no heate came vnto him.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبِيدُهُ: «لِيَلْتَمِسْ سَيِّدُنَا الْمَلِكُ فَتَاةً عذْرَاءَ تَخْدُمُكَ، وَتَعْتَنِي بِكَ وَتَضْطَجِعُ فِي حِضْنِكَ، فَتَبْعَثُ فِيكَ الدِّفْءَ». | ٢ 2 |
Wherefore his seruants saide vnto him, Let there be sought for my lord ye King a yong virgin, and let her stand before the king, and cherish him: and let her lie in thy bosome, that my lord the King may get heate.
| فَبَحَثُوا لَهُ عَنْ فَتَاةٍ جَمِيلَةٍ فِي أَرْجَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَعَثَرُوا عَلَى أَبِيشَجَ الشُّونَمِيَّةِ فَأَحْضَرُوهَا إِلَى الْمَلِكِ. | ٣ 3 |
So they sought for a faire young maide thoroughout all the coastes of Israel, and founde one Abishag a Shunamite, and brought her to the king.
| وَكَانَتِ الْفَتَاةُ بَارِعَةَ الْجَمَالِ، فَصَارَتْ لَهُ حَاضِنَةً، تَقُومُ عَلَى خِدْمَتِهِ، وَلَكِنَّ الْمَلِكَ لَمْ يُعَاشِرْهَا. | ٤ 4 |
And the maid was exceeding faire, and cherished the king, and ministred to him, but the King knew her not.
| وَعَظَّمَ أَدُونِيَّا ابْنُ حَجِّيثَ نَفْسَهُ قَائِلاً: «أَنَا أَمْلِكُ»، وَجَهَّزَ لِنَفْسِهِ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَفُرْسَاناً وَاسْتَأْجَرَ خَمْسِينَ رَجُلاً يَجْرُونَ أَمَامَ مَوْكِبِهِ. | ٥ 5 |
Then Adoniiah the sonne of Haggith exalted himselfe, saying, I will be king. And he gate him charets and horsemen, and fiftie men to run before him.
| وَلَمْ يُغْضِبْهُ أَبُوهُ قَطُّ بِسُؤَالِهِ: «لِمَاذَا فَعَلْتَ هَكَذَا؟» وَكَانَ أَدُونِيَّا وَسِيمَ الطَّلْعَةِ، وَقَدْ أَنْجَبَتْهُ أُمُّهُ بَعْدَ أَبْشَالُومَ. | ٦ 6 |
And his father would not displease him from his childehood, to say, Why hast thou done so? And hee was a very goodly man, and his mother bare him next after Absalom.
| وَتَدَاوَلَ الأَمْرَ مَعَ يُوآبَ بْنِ صُرُوِيَّةَ وَأَبِيَاثَارَ الْكَاهِنِ فَأَعَانَاهُ، | ٧ 7 |
And he tooke counsel of Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah, and of Abiathar the Priest: and they helped forward Adoniiah.
| وَأَمَّا صَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَنَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ وَشِمْعِي وَرِيعِي وَسِوَاهُمْ مِنَ الأَبْطَالِ مِنْ رِجَالِ دَاوُدَ فَلَمْ يَنْسَاقُوا مَعَهُ. | ٨ 8 |
But Zadok the Priest, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and Nathan the Prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the men of might, which were with Dauid, were not with Adoniiah.
| وَتَوَجَّهَ أَدُونِيَّا إِلَى عَيْنِ رُوجَلَ حَيْثُ ذَبَحَ غَنَماً وَبَقَراً وَمُسَمَّنَاتٍ عِنْدَ حَجَرِ الزَّاحِفَةِ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ إِخْوَتِهِ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ، وَجَمِيعَ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا مِنْ حَاشِيَةِ دَاوُدَ، | ٩ 9 |
Then Adoniiah sacrificed sheepe and oxen, and fat cattel by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by En-rogel, and called all his brethren the kings sonnes, and al the men of Iudah ye Kings seruants,
| وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْعُ نَاثَانَ النَّبِيَّ وَلا بَنَايَاهُو، وَلا الرِّجَالَ الأَبْطَالَ وَلا سُلَيْمَانَ أَخَاهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
But Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah, and the mightie men, and Salomon his brother hee called not.
| فَأَقْبَلَ نَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ إِلَى بَثْشَبَعَ أُمِّ سُلَيْمَانَ قَائِلاً: «أَلَمْ تَعْلَمِي أَنَّ أَدُونِيَّا ابْنَ حَجِّيثَ قَدْ مَلَكَ، وَسَيِّدُنَا دَاوُدُ لَمْ يَعْرِفْ بِالأَمْرِ بَعْدُ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Wherefore Nathan spake vnto Bath-sheba the mother of Salomon, saying, Hast thou not heard, that Adoniiah ye sonne of Haggith doeth reigne, and Dauid our lord knoweth it not?
| فَالآنَ تَعَالَيْ أُشِيرُ عَلَيْكِ بِمَا يُنْقِذُكِ وَيُنْقِذُ ابْنَكِ سُلَيْمَانَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Now therefore come, and I will now giue thee counsell, howe to saue thine owne life, and the life of thy sonne Salomon.
| امْضِي وَادْخُلِي إِلَى الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ وَقُولِي لَهُ: أَلَمْ تَحْلِفْ يَا سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ لِجَارِيَتِكَ أَنَّ ابْنِي سُلَيْمَانَ يَكُونُ الْمَلِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِي وَهُوَ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى عَرْشِي؟ فَلِمَاذَا مَلَكَ أَدُونِيَّا إِذاً؟» | ١٣ 13 |
Go, and get thee in vnto King Dauid, and say vnto him, Didest not thou, my lorde, O King, sweare vnto thine handmaide, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and he shall sit vpon my throne? why is then Adoniiah King?
| وَفِيمَا أَنْتِ تُخَاطِبِينَ الْمَلِكَ أَدْخُلُ وَرَاءَكِ، وأُؤَيِّدُ كَلامَكِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the King, I also will come in after thee, and confirme thy wordes.
| فَمَثَلَتْ بَثْشَبَعُ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ الشَّيْخِ فِي مُخْدَعِهِ، وَكَانَتْ أَبِيشَجُ الشُّونَمِيَّةُ قَائِمَةً عَلَى خِدْمَتِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
So Bath-sheba went in vnto the King into the chamber, and the King was verie olde, and Abishag the Shunammite ministred vnto ye King.
| فَأَكَبَّتْ بَثْشَبَعُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا وَسَجَدَتْ لِلْمَلِكِ، فَسَأَلَهَا الْمَلِكُ: «مَالَكِ؟» | ١٦ 16 |
And Bath-sheba bowed and made obeisance vnto the King. And the King saide, What is thy matter?
| فَأَجَابَتْهُ: «لَقَدْ حَلَفْتَ لِي بِالرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي قَائِلاً:’إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ ابْنِي يُصْبِحُ مَلِكاً مِنْ بَعْدِي وَيَجْلِسُ عَلَى عَرْشِي‘ | ١٧ 17 |
And shee answered him, My lorde, thou swarest by the Lord thy God vnto thine handmaide, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and he shall sit vpon my throne.
| وَلَكِنْ هَا هُوَ أَدُونِيَّا قَدْ مَلَكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ عِلْمٍ مِنْكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ، | ١٨ 18 |
And beholde, nowe is Adoniiah king, and now, my lord, O King, thou knowest it not.
| وَقَدْ ذَبَحَ ثِيرَاناً وَمُسَمَّنَاتٍ وَغَنَماً بِوَفْرَةٍ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ، وَأَبِيَاثَارَ الْكَاهِنَ، ويُوآبَ رَئِيسَ الْجَيْشِ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَدْعُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَبْدَكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
And he hath offred many oxen, and fatte cattel, and sheepe, and hath called all the sonnes of the King, and Abiathar the Priest, and Ioab the captaine of the hoste: but Salomon thy seruant hath he not bidden.
| إِنَّ جَمِيعَ أَعْيُنِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَا سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ، تَتَّجِهُ نَحْوَكَ فِي انْتِظَارِ إِعْلانِكَ مَنْ يَخْلُفُ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكَ عَلَى عَرْشِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And thou, my lorde, O King, knowest that the eyes of all Israel are on thee, that thou shouldest tell them, who shoulde sit on the throne of my lord the King after him.
| وَإلَّا حَالَمَا يَنْضَمُّ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ إِلَى آبَائِهِ نُعَامَلُ أَنَا وَابْنِي سُلَيْمَانُ مُعَامَلَةَ الْمُذْنِبِينَ». | ٢١ 21 |
For els when my lord the King shall sleepe with his fathers, I and my sonne Salomon shalbe reputed vile.
| وَفِيمَا هِيَ تُخَاطِبُ الْمَلِكَ جَاءَ نَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ، | ٢٢ 22 |
And lo, while she yet talked with the King, Nathan also the Prophet came in.
| فَقِيلَ لِلْمَلِكِ: «قَدْ جَاءَ نَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ». فَمَثَلَ فِي حَضْرَةِ الْمَلِكِ وَسَجَدَ لَهُ، | ٢٣ 23 |
And they tolde the King, saying, Beholde, Nathan the Prophet. And when he was come in to the King, hee made obeisance before the King vpon his face to the ground.
| وَتَسَاءَلَ نَاثَانُ: «هَلْ قُلْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ: إِنَّ أَدُونِيَّا يَمْلِكُ مِنْ بَعْدِي وَيَخْلُفُنِي عَلَى عَرْشِي؟ | ٢٤ 24 |
And Nathan saide, My lorde, O King, hast thou said, Adoniiah shall reigne after mee, and he shall sit vpon my throne?
| لأَنَّهُ قَدْ مَضَى الْيَوْمَ وَذَبَحَ ثِيرَاناً وَمُسَمَّنَاتٍ وَغَنَماً بِوَفْرَةٍ، وَدَعَا جَمِيعَ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ وَرُؤَسَاءَ الْجَيْشِ وَأَبِيَاثَارَ الْكَاهِنَ، وَهَا هُمْ يَحْتَفِلُونَ آكِلِينَ شَارِبِينَ أَمَامَهُ هَاتِفِينَ: لِيَحْيَ الْمَلِكُ أَدُونِيَّا! | ٢٥ 25 |
For hee is gone downe this day, and hath slaine many oxen, and fat cattel, and sheepe, and hath called al the Kings sonnes, and the captaines of the hoste, and Abiathar the Priest: and behold, they eate and drinke before him, and say, God saue King Adoniiah.
| وَأَمَّا أَنَا وَصَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ وَبَنَايَاهُو بنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَسُلَيْمَانُ فَلَمْ يَدْعُنَا. | ٢٦ 26 |
But me thy seruant, and Zadok the Priest, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and thy seruant Salomon hath he not called.
| فَهَلْ صَدَرَ هَذَا الأَمْرُ عَنْ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تُطْلِعَ عَبْدَكَ عَمَّنْ يَخْلُفُكَ عَلَى عَرْشِكَ؟» | ٢٧ 27 |
Is this thing done by my lord the King, and thou hast not shewed it vnto thy seruant, who should sitte on the throne of my lorde the King after him?
| فَأَجَابَ الْمَلِكُ: «اسْتَدْعِ لِي بَثْشَبَعَ». فَمَثَلَتْ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ، | ٢٨ 28 |
Then King Dauid answered, and saide, Call me Bath-sheba. And shee came into ye Kings presence, and stoode before the King.
| فَحَلَفَ الْمَلِكُ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أَنْقَذَ نَفْسِي مِنْ كُلِّ ضِيقٍ، | ٢٩ 29 |
And the King sware, saying, As the Lord liueth, who hath redeemed my soule out of all aduersitie,
| كَمَا أَقْسَمْتُ لَكِ بِالرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّ ابْنَكِ سُلَيْمَانَ يَمْلِكُ بَعْدِي وَيَخْلُفُنِي عَلَى عَرْشِي، هَكَذَا أَفْعَلُ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ». | ٣٠ 30 |
That as I sware vnto thee by the Lord God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and hee shall sit vpon my throne in my place, so will I certainely doe this day.
| فَخَرَّتْ بَثْشَبَعُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا إِلَى الأَرْضِ سَاجِدَةً لِلْمَلِكِ وَقَالَتْ: «لِيَحْيَ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ!» | ٣١ 31 |
Then Bath-sheba bowed her face to the earth, and did reuerence vnto the King, and said, God saue my lord King Dauid for euer.
| وَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ: «اسْتَدْعِ لِي صَادُوقَ الْكَاهِنَ وَنَاثَانَ النَّبِيَّ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ». فَدَخَلُوا إِلَى حَضْرَةِ الْمَلِكِ | ٣٢ 32 |
And King Dauid saide, Call mee Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada. And they came before the King.
| فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ لَهُمْ: «خُذُوا مَعَكُمْ رِجَالَ حَاشِيَةِ سَيِّدِكُمْ، وَأَرْكِبُوا سُلَيْمَانَ ابْنِي عَلَى بَغْلَتِي الْخَاصَّةِ، وَانْطَلِقُوا بِهِ إِلَى جِيحُونَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Then the King said vnto them, Take with you the seruants of your lorde, and cause Salomon my sonne to ride vpon mine owne mule, and carie him downe to Gihon.
| وَلْيَمْسَحْهُ هُنَاكَ صَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَانْفُخُوا بِالْبُوقِ هَاتِفِينَ:’لِيَحْيَ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ‘. | ٣٤ 34 |
And let Zadok the Priest and Nathan the Prophet anoint him there King ouer Israel, and blowe ye the trumpet, and say, God saue king Salomon.
| ثُمَّ اصْعَدُوا وَرَاءَهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ فَيَجْلِسَ عَلَى عَرْشِي، فَهُوَ الَّذِي اخْتَرْتُهُ لِيَخْلُفَنِي عَلَى عَرْشِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا». | ٣٥ 35 |
Then come vp after him, that hee may come and sit vpon my throne: and hee shall bee King in my steade: for I haue appointed him to be prince ouer Israel and ouer Iudah.
| فَقَالَ بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ لِلْمَلِكِ: «آمِين! لِيَكُنْ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ! | ٣٦ 36 |
Then Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada answered the King, and said, So be it, and the Lord God of my lord the King ratifie it.
| وَكَمَا كَانَ الرَّبُّ مَعَ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ لِيَكُنْ مَعَ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَيَجْعَلْ عَرْشَهُ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ عَرْشِ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ». | ٣٧ 37 |
As the Lord hath bene with my lorde the King, so be he with Salomon, and exalt his throne aboue the throne of my lorde king Dauid.
| وَمَضَى صَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ وَضُبَّاطُ حَرَسِ الْمَلِكِ، وَأَرْكَبُوا سُلَيْمَانَ عَلَى بَغْلَةِ الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ، وَانْطَلَقُوا بِهِ إِلَى جِيحُونَ. | ٣٨ 38 |
So Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites went downe and caused Salomon to ride vpon king Dauids mule, and brought him to Gihon.
| فَأَخَذَ صَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ قَرْنَ الدُّهْنِ مِنَ الْخَيْمَةِ وَمَسَحَ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَنَفَخُوا بِالْبُوقِ وَهَتَفَ جَمِيعُ الشَّعْبِ: «لِيَحْيَ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ». | ٣٩ 39 |
And Zadok the Priest tooke an horne of oyle out of the Tabernacle, and anointed Salomon: and they blewe the trumpet, and all the people said, God saue king Salomon.
| وَصَعِدَ جَمِيعُ الشَّعْبِ وَرَاءَ سُلَيْمَانَ وَهُمْ يَعْزِفُونَ عَلَى النَّايِ هَاتِفِينَ فَرَحاً، حَتَّى ارْتَجَّتِ الأَرْضُ مِنْ أَصْوَاتِهِمْ. | ٤٠ 40 |
And all the people came vp after him, and the people piped with pipes, and reioyced with great ioye, so that the earth rang with the sound of them.
| وَسَمِعَ أَدُونِيَّا وَمَدْعُوُّوهُ جَمِيعاً أَصْوَاتَ الْهُتَافِ بَعْدَ أَنْ فَرَغُوا مِنَ الأَكْلِ، وَبَلَغَ نَفِيرُ الْبُوقِ مَسَامِعَ يُوآبَ فَتَساءَلَ: «مَا مَعْنَى هَذَا الضَّجِيجِ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ؟» | ٤١ 41 |
And Adoniiah and all the ghestes that were with him, heard it: (and they had made an ende of eating) and when Ioab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, What meaneth this noise and vprore in the citie?
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَسَاءَلُ جَاءَ يُونَاثَانُ بْنُ أَبِيَاثَارَ الْكَاهِنِ، فَقَالَ أَدُونِيَّا: «تَعَالَ، فَأَنْتَ رَجُلٌ كَرِيمٌ تَحْمِلُ بَشَائِرَ خَيْرٍ». | ٤٢ 42 |
And as he yet spake, beholde, Ionathan the sonne of Abiathar the Priest came: and Adoniiah said, Come in: for thou art a worthie man, and bringest good tidings.
| فَأَجَابَ يُونَاثَانُ أَدُونِيَّا: «لا إِنَّ سَيِّدَنَا الْمَلِكَ دَاوُدَ قَدْ نَصَّبَ سُلَيْمَانَ مَلِكاً، | ٤٣ 43 |
And Ionathan answered, and said to Adoniiah, Verely our lord King Dauid hath made Salomon King.
| وَبَعَثَ مَعَهُ صَادُوقَ الْكَاهِنَ وَنَاثَانَ النَّبِيَّ وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ وضُبَّاطَ حَرَسِهِ، فَأَرْكَبُوهُ عَلَى بَغْلَةِ الْمَلِكِ، | ٤٤ 44 |
And the King hath sent with him Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they haue caused him to ride vpon the Kings mule.
| وَمَسَحَهُ صَادُوقُ الْكَاهِنُ وَنَاثَانُ النَّبِيُّ مَلِكاً فِي جِيحُونَ، ثُمَّ صَعِدُوا مِنْ هُنَاكَ فَرِحِينَ هَاتِفِينَ، حَتَّى مَلأَ ضَجِيجُهُمُ الْمَدِينَةَ. وَهَذَا هُوَ مَصْدَرُ الصَّوْتِ الَّذِي سَمِعْتُمُوهُ. | ٤٥ 45 |
And Zadok the Priest, and Nathan ye Prophet haue anointed him King in Gihon: and they are gone vp from thence with ioy, and the citie is moued: this is the noise that ye haue heard.
| وَقَدْ جَلَسَ سُلَيْمَانُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ الْمَمْلَكَةِ». | ٤٦ 46 |
And Salomon also sitteth on the throne of the kingdome.
| وَتَوَافَدَ رِجَالُ الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ لِتَهْنِئَتِهِ قَائِلِينَ: «لِيَجْعَلْ إِلَهُكَ اسْمَ سُلَيْمَانَ أَكْثَرَ شُهْرَةً مِنِ اسْمِكَ، وَعَرْشَهُ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ عَرْشِكَ». فَسَجَدَ الْمَلِكُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ | ٤٧ 47 |
And moreouer the Kings seruantes came to blesse our lord King Dauid, saying, God make the name of Salomon more famous then thy name, and exalt his throne aboue thy throne: therefore the King worshipped vpon the bed.
| قَائِلاً: «تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي أَنْعَمَ عَلَيَّ بِمَنْ يَخْلُفُنِي عَلَى عَرْشِي وَأَنَا مَازِلْتُ عَلَى قَيْدِ الْحَيَاةِ». | ٤٨ 48 |
And thus sayd the King also, Blessed bee the Lord God of Israel, who hath made one to sit on my throne this day, euen in my sight.
| فَاعْتَرَتِ الرِّعْدَةُ جَمِيعَ مَدْعُوِّي أَدُونِيَّا، فَقَامُوا وَتَفَرَّقُوا كُلٌّ فِي سَبِيلِهِ. | ٤٩ 49 |
Then all the ghestes that were with Adonijah, were afraide, and rose vp, and went euery man his way.
| وَمَلأَ الْخَوْفُ أَدُونِيَّا مِنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، فَانْطَلَقَ مُسْرِعاً وَتَمَسَّكَ بِقُرُونِ الْمَذْبَحِ. | ٥٠ 50 |
And Adonijah fearing the presence of Salomon, arose and went, and tooke holde on the hornes of the altar.
| فَقِيلَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ: «هَا هُوَ أَدُونِيَّا قَدْ مَلأَهُ الْخَوْفُ مِنْكَ، وَقَدْ لَجَأَ إِلَى الْمَذْبَحِ يَتَمَسَّكُ بِقُرُونِهِ وَيَقُولُ: لِيَحْلِفْ لِي الْيَوْمَ سُلَيْمَانُ أَنَّهُ لَا يَقْتُلُ عَبْدَهُ بِالسَّيْفِ». | ٥١ 51 |
And one tolde Salomon, saying, Beholde, Adonijah doeth feare King Salomon: for lo, he hath caught holde on the hornes of the altar, saying, Let King Salomon sweare vnto me this day, that he will not slay his seruant with the sword.
| فَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ: «إِنْ أَثْبَتَ صِدْقَ وَلائِهِ فَإِنَّ شَعْرَةً وَاحِدَةً مِنْ رَأْسِهِ لَنْ تَسْقُطَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَضْمَرَ الْخِيَانَةَ وَالشَّرَّ فَإِنَّهُ حَتْماً يَمُوتُ». | ٥٢ 52 |
Then Salomon sayd, If he will shewe him selfe a worthy man, there shall not an heare of him fall to the earth, but if wickednes be found in him, he shall dye.
| فَأَرْسَلَ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ مَنْ أَحْضَرَهُ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْمَذْبَحِ، فَأَتَى وَسَجَدَ لِلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ سُلَيْمَانُ: «اذْهَبْ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ». | ٥٣ 53 |
Then King Salomon sent, and they brought him from the altar, and he came and did obeisance vnto King Salomon. And Salomon sayde vnto him, Go to thine house.
