1 Hina 1
1 Hina bagade Da: ibidi da da: i hamone fisi. Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da e abulaga sosonesi. Be amomane e da hame dogoloi.
When King David was very old [IDM, DOU], even though his servants put many blankets on top of him, he was unable to become warm.
2 Amaiba: le, ea hawa: hamosu ouligisu dunu, da ema amane sia: i, “Hina! Ninia uda a: fini afae di ouligisa esaloma: ne hogomu. E da di anegagi gumima: ne, di gadenene golasu hamoma: mu.”
So they said to him, “Your Majesty, allow us to search for a young virgin who can stay with you and take care of you. She can sleep close to you and enable you to become warm.”
3 Ilia da Isala: ili soge fi huluane amo ganodini uda a: fini afae noga: idafa hohogola lafia: i. Amalalu, ilia da Siuneme soge ganodini, uda a: fini noga: idafa ea dio A: bisia: ge ba: le, amola hina bagadema oule misi.
[The king gave them permission, ] so they searched throughout Israel for a beautiful young woman. They found a woman named Abishag, from Shunem [town], and brought her to the king.
4 E da uda a: fini isisima: goi ba: i. E da hina bagade noga: le ouligi. Be amomane ela da: iga hame gilisi.
She was [truly] very beautiful. She took care of [DOU] the king, but the king did not have sexual relations with her.
5 A: basalome da bogoloba, A:dounaidia (Da: ibidi amola Ha: gide elea mano) da Da: ibidi ea magobo mano fawane esalu. E da dunu isisima: goidafa esalu. Eso huluane, A:dounaidia da giadofaloba, Da: ibidi da mae hahamone udigili yolesisu. E da hina bagade hou lamusa: hanai galu. E da hisu sa: liode amola hosi amola sigi aligisu dunu 50 agoane, e fidima: ne lai.
[After Absalom died], David’s oldest surviving son was Adonijah, whose mother was Haggith. He was a very handsome/good-looking man. But David had never rebuked him about anything he did. [After Absalom died, Adonijah thought that he would become king]. So he started to boast, saying “I will become king [now].” Then he provided for himself some chariots, and men to drive them, and horses [to pull them], and 50 men to run [as his bodyguards] in front of those chariots [wherever he went].
7 E da Youa: be (ea ame da Seluaia) amola gobele salasu dunu Abaia: da, ela e fidima: ne gilisili sia: dasu. Amola ela da e fuligala: musa: sia: i.
One day he conferred with Joab, [David’s army commander], and Abiathar the priest, and they promised/agreed to help/support Adonijah.
8 Be gobele salasu dunu Sa: idoge, Bina: ia (Yihoiada ea mano), ba: la: lusu dunu Na: ida: ne, Simiai, Liai amola Da: ibidi ea da: i ouligisu dunu, ilia da A: dounaidia emagai hame galu.
But Zadok, who was also a priest, Benaiah [who had supervised David’s bodyguards], Nathan the prophet, Shimei and Rei, and David’s most capable soldiers refused to help/support Adonijah.
9 Eso afaega, A:dounaidia da sibi, bulamagau amola sefena gala bulamagau mano amo Sania Magufu (Enelougele hano bubuga: su bega: gadenene) Godema gobele sali. E da hina bagade Da: ibidi egefelali oda amola Da: ibidi ea hawa: hamosu dunu Yuda soge amo ganodini esala, amo gobele salasu lolo nabe amoga misa: ne hiougi.
One day Adonijah went to Snake Rock near En-Rogel [Spring, which is near Jerusalem], to sacrifice some sheep and oxen and fattened cattle. He invited most of his brothers, King David’s other sons, to come. He also invited all of the king’s officials from Judah to come to the celebration.
10 Be ea hobe Soloumane, ba: la: lusu dunu Na: ida: ne, Bina: ia amola Da: ibidi ea da: i ouligisu dunu, amo e da hame hiougi.
But he did not invite Nathan or Benaiah or the king’s most capable soldiers or his [younger/half]-brother Solomon.
11 Amalalu, Na: ida: ne da Ba: desiba (Soloumane ea ame) ema asili, amane adole ba: i, “Ha: gide ea mano A: dounaidia da higobele hina bagade hamoi, amo di da hame nabibala: ? Amola hina bagade Da: ibidi da amo hamedafa nabi galu.
Nathan [found out what they were doing, so he went to] Solomon’s mother Bathsheba [and] asked her, “Have you not heard that Haggith’s son Adonijah is declared himself to be the king? And King David does not know about it!
12 Di da dia esalusu amola dia mano Soloumane ea esalusu gaga: musa: hanai galea, na da dima sisamu.
So if you want to save yourself and your son Solomon from being killed, allow me to tell you what you should do.
13 Hedolo hina Da: ibidima asili amane adole ba: ma! ‘Hina bagade! Di da nama dafawane ilegele sia: i, amo na mano Soloumane da dia hina bagade sogebi lamusa: sia: i. Amaiba: le, abuliba: le A: dounaidia da hina bagade hamobela: ?’”
Go immediately to King David. Say to him, ‘Your Majesty, you solemnly promised me [RHQ] that my son Solomon would become the king after you [die], and that he would sit on your throne [and rule]. So why is it that Adonijah [has said that he] is now the king?’
14 Na: ida: ne da eno amane sisia: asi, “Amasea, di da hina Da: ibidi ali gilisili sia: dalea, na da ganodini misini, dia sia: da dafawane sia: mu.”
Then, while you are still talking to the king, I will come in and tell him that what you are saying to him [about Adonijah] is true.”
15 Amaiba: le, Ba: desiba da hina bagade ea golala ahoasu ganodini e ba: la asi. E da da: idafa hamoiba: le, Siuneme a: fini A: bisia: ge e ouligilalebe ba: i.
So Bathsheba went to see the king in his bedroom. He was very old, and Abishag was taking care of him.
16 Ba: desiba da hina bagade ea midadi gududafa begudui. Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da adi lamusa: misibala: ?”
Bathsheba bowed very low in front of the king, and the king asked her, “What do you want?”
17 E bu adole i, “Hina bagade! Di da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le nama amane ilegele sia: i. Na mano Soloumane da di bagia hina bagade hamomu.
She replied, “Your Majesty, you solemnly promised me, knowing that Yahweh our God [was listening] [IDM], that my son Solomon would become king after you [die], and that he would sit on your throne [and rule].
18 Be A: dounaidia e da hina bagade hamoi dagoi. Amola di da amo hou hamedafa nabi.
But now, believe it or not, Adonijah has become king, and you do not know anything about it.
19 E da bulamagau gawali, sibi amola bulamagau mano sefena amo bagohame Godema gobele sali. Amola e da dia mano oda, gobele salasu dunu Abaia: da amola dia dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu dunu Youa: be, ili amo gobele salasu lolo amoga misa: ne hiougi. Be e da dia mano Soloumane misa: ne hame hiougi.
He has sacrificed a lot of oxen and fattened cattle and sheep, and he has invited all of your other sons to the celebration. He has also invited Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander of your army, but he did not invite your son Solomon.
20 Hina bagade! Isala: ili fi dunu huluane ilia hanai da di da dia bagia manebe hina amo di ilima adoma: ne dawa: lala.
Your Majesty, all the people [SYN] of Israel are expecting you to tell them who is the one who will become king after you are no longer the king.
21 Be di da mae adole bogosea, ilia da na mano Soloumane anima wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia se nabasu defele anima se nabasu imunu.”
If you do not do that, what will happen is that after you die [EUP] people will consider that my son Solomon and I are rebelling, [and they will execute us because we did not help Adonijah to become king].”
22 E da gebe adodalobawane, Na: ida: ne da hina bagade diasuga doaga: i.
While she was still talking to the king, Nathan came [to the palace].
23 Ilia da hina bagadema gobele salasu dunu da amogai esala sia: beba: le, Na: ida: ne da golili sa: ili, hina bagade ea midadi gududafa begudui.
The king’s servants/advisors told David, “Nathan the prophet has come.” So [Bathsheba left, and] Nathan went into where the king was and knelt down, with his face on the ground.
24 Amalu e da amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Di da A: dounaidia e dia bagia hina hamoma: ne sisia: i labala?
Then Nathan said, “Your Majesty, have you declared that Adonijah will become king after you are no longer the king?
25 Wali esoga e da asili, bulamagau gawali, sibi, amola bulamagau mano sefena gala amo bagohame gobele sala asi. E da diagofelali huluane amola dia dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu dunu Youa: be amola gobele salasu dunu Abaia: da amo huluane lolo nabega misa: ne sia: i. Amola wahadafa ilia da lolo naha bagadewane amane welala, ‘Hina bagade A: dounaidia da sedadewane esalumu da defea!’
[I say that] because today he has gone down [to En-Rogel Spring] and has sacrificed a lot of oxen, fattened cattle, and sheep. And he has invited all of your other sons, Joab the army commander, and Abiathar the priest. They are all eating and drinking with him and saying ‘We hope/desire that King Adonijah will live a long time!’
26 Be hina! E da na, gobele salasu Sa: idoge, Bina: ia amola Soloumane, nini hame hiougiya: ba:
But he did not invite me or Zadok the priest or Benaiah or Solomon.
27 Hina bagade! Di da amo dafawane adobela: ? Amola amo hamobeba: le, dia bagia manebe dunu ea dio amo dia eagene ouligisu dunuma hame adobela: ?”
Did you, as the king, say that they should do this without telling your other officials who you want to become king [MTY] after you are no longer the king?”
28 Hina bagade Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Ba: desiba da bu misa: ne sia: ma!” Amalalu, e da misini, ea midadi aligi.
Then [after Nathan left the room, ] King David said [to one of his servants], “Tell Bathsheba to come in here again.” So [he went and told her, and] she came in and stood in front of the king.
29 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da ema amane sia: i, “Hina Gode, na bidi hamosu Gaga: su dunu, amo Ea Dioba: le, na da dima dafawane ilegele sia: sa.
Then the king said, “Yahweh has rescued me from all my troubles. I promised you, with Yahweh the God whom we Israelis [worship] listening, that your son Solomon would be king after I am no longer the king. Today, as surely as Yahweh lives, [I solemnly declare that] I will do what I promised.”
30 Wali eso, na musa: Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le dima ilegele sia: i, amo na da dafawane hamomu. Diagofe Soloumane da dafawane na bagia hina bagade hamomu.”
31 Ba: desiba da gududafa beguduli, amane sia: i, “Na hina bagade! Di da eso huluane esalumu da defea!”
Bathsheba knelt down with her face on the ground and said, “Your Majesty, I hope/desire that you will live for many more years [HYP]!”
32 Amalalu, hina Da: ibidi da Sa: idoge, Na: ida: ne amola Bina: ia ili ema misa: ne sia: si. Ilia da ema doaga: le,
Then King David said, “Summon Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah.” [So someone went and summoned them.] When they came in,
33 e da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia asili, na diasu ouligisu dunu ili amola oule masa. Na mano Soloumane da nina: ‘miule’ (dougi agoai) amo da: iya fila heda: le, Gaihone hano bubuga: su amogudu oule masa.
he said to them, “Put my son Solomon on my mule. Take him with my officials down to Gihon [Spring].
34 Amogawi, Sa: idoge amola Na: ida: ne alia Soloumane da Isala: ili ilia hina bagade hamoma: ne, susuligi amoga soga: gala: lesima. Amasea, dalabede fulabole, amane wele sia: ma, ‘Hina bagade Soloumane da sedadewane esaloma: ma!’
There, you two, Zadok and Nathan, should anoint him, [with olive oil to appoint him to be] the king of Israel. Then you must blow trumpets, and [all the people there must] shout, ‘We hope/desire that King Solomon will live for many years!’
35 E da na fisuga fimusa: buhagili goeguda: masea, dilia e bobogema. E da na bagia hina bagade hamomu. Bai na da e fawane, Isala: ili fi amola Yuda fi ouligima: ne ilegei dagoi.”
Then follow him back here, and he will come and sit on my throne. He will then become king instead of me. I have appointed him to be the ruler of [all the people of] Israel and of Judah.”
36 Bina: ia da bu adole i, “Amanewane hamomu! Amola dia Hina Gode da amo dafawane hamoma: mu.
Benaiah replied, “We will do that! We hope/wish that Yahweh, who is your God [and our God], will cause it to happen!
37 Hina Gode da di, hina bagade, amo noga: le fidisu. E da amo defele, Soloumane noga: le fidimu da defea. Amola E fidibiba: le, Soloumane ea ouligisu da bagadewane gaguiba: le, dia ouligisu hou baligimu da defea.”
King David, Yahweh has helped you; we hope/wish that he will also help Solomon and enable him to become a greater king than you have been.”
38 Amaiba: le, Sa: idoge, Na: ida: ne, Bina: ia amola hina bagade ea da: i ouligisu dunu da Soloumane amo hina bagade Da: ibidi ea miule da: iya fisili, oule, Gaihone hano bubuga: su amoga oule asi.
So Zadok, Nathan, Benaiah, and the two groups of men who were the king’s bodyguards went and put Solomon on King David’s mule and escorted him down to Gihon [Spring].
39 Sa: idoge da olife susuligi buniga di (amo e da musa: Hina Gode Ea abula diasuga lai) amo lale, Soloumane amoga soga: gala: le, e mogili gagale ilegei. Ilia da dalabede fulabole amola dunu huluane da amane wele sia: i, “Hina bagade Soloumane da sedadewane esaloma: mu.”
There Zadok took the container of [olive] oil from the Sacred Tent and (anointed/poured some oil on) Solomon. Then the trumpets were blown, and all the people shouted, “We hope/wish that King Solomon will live for many years!”
40 Amalalu, ilia huluane da e bobogele, hahawane wele sia: i, amola fulabosu baidama fulaboi. Ilia bagadewane gugulubiba: le, osobo da fofogoi.
Then all the people followed him back up [to the city], shouting joyfully and playing flutes. They shouted very loudly, with the result that the ground shook.
41 A: dounaidia amola ea hiougi dunu da lolo mai gilalaloba, ilia da gugulubi amo nabi. Amola Youa: be da dalabede fulabobe nababeba: le, e da amane adole ba: i, “Amo moilai ganodini gugulubi ea bai da adila: ?”
When Adonijah and all (his guests/the people whom he had invited) were finishing eating at their celebration, they heard the noise. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpets, he asked, “What is causing all that noise in the city?”
42 E da sia: dagomusa: gala, Yonada: ne (gobele salasu A: baia: da ea mano) da doaga: i. A: dounaidia da ema amane sia: i, “Misa! Di da dunu noga: idafa. Di da sia: noga: idafa gaguli maha ganumu.”
While he was still speaking, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, arrived. Adonijah said, “Come in! You are a man whom we can trust, so you must be bringing us good news!”
43 Yonada: ne da amane sia: i, “Sia: noga: idafa hame. Hina bagade Da: ibidi da Soloumane hina bagade hamonesi dagoi.
Jonathan replied, “No, [I do not have good news]! His Majesty, King David, has caused Solomon to be the king!
44 E da Sa: idoge, Na: ida: ne, Bina: ia amola ea da: i ouligisu dunu amo Soloumane oule masa: ne asunasi. Ilia da Soloumane hina bagade ea miule fila heda: ma: ne fisi.
He sent Zadok, Nathan, Benaiah, and his own group of bodyguards to go with Solomon. They put Solomon on King David’s mule.
45 Amola Sa: idoge amola Na: ida: ne da Gaihone hano bubuga: su amoga Soloumanema susuligi soga: gala: le ilegei. Amalalu ilia da moilai ganodini golili sa: ili, hahawaneba: le bagade wele sia: i. Dunu huluane da wali bagadewane hahawane dogolegesa. Waha gugulubi dia nabi amo da goa.
They [went down to] Gihon [Spring], and there Zadok and Nathan anointed him to become the king. Now they have returned from there to the city, shouting joyfully. That is why there is that great/loud noise that you are hearing.
46 Soloumane da wali hina bagade esala.
So Solomon is now our king [MTY].
47 Sia: eno da hina bagade hawa: hamosu dunu da hina bagade Da: ibidima asigi sia: sia: musa: asili, ilia amane sia: i, ‘Dia Gode da dunu ilia dima nodone dawa: digi hou amo baligili Soloumanema imunu da defea. Amola dia ouligisu da bagade gaguiwane ba: i. Be Soloumane ea ouligisu da amo baligimu da defea.’ Amalalu, hina bagade Da: ibidi da ea dia heda: su da: iya Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: beguduli,
Furthermore, the palace officials came to His Majesty, King David, to tell him that they approved of what he had done. They said, ‘We wish/hope that our God will enable Solomon [MTY] to become more famous than you have been and enable him to be a better king than you have been.’ When they said that, the king, lying on his bed, bowed his head to worship [Yahweh].
48 amane sia: ne gadoi, ‘Ninia Isala: ili Hina Godema nodone sia: na: di! Bai E da wali nagaga fifi misi afae amo na bagia hina bagade hamoma: ne hamoi. Amola na da mae bogole, amo hou ba: musa: , E da logo doasi dagoi.’”
Then he said, ‘I praise Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], because he has allowed one of my sons to become the king today, and has permitted me to see it happen.’”
49 Amalalu, A:dounaidia ea hiougi dunu da beda: igia: le, amola ilia huluane wa: legadole, afagogole, afia: i.
Then all of Adonijah’s guests (trembled/were afraid), so they all immediately got up and left and scattered.
50 A: dounaidia da Soloumaneba: le bagade beda: ne, Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasuga asili, oloda hegomai da: iya ‘hono’ biyaduyale, e da amo gaguli lelebe ba: i.
Adonijah was afraid of what Solomon [would do], so he went [to the Sacred Tent] and grabbed the projections at the corners of the altar, [because he knew that no one would kill him there].
51 Ilia da hina bagade Soloumanema amane sia: i, “A: dounaidia da diba: le beda: ga oloda ea ‘hono’ gaguiwane esala,’ amane ema sia: i. Amola A: dounaidia ea sia: amo da agoane sia: i, “Na da amo gagui mae fisili, hina bagade Soloumane da na hame medole legema: ne ilegele sia: beba: le fawane fisimu,” amane ilia da Soloumanema sia: i.
But someone told Solomon, “Hey/Listen, Adonijah is afraid of you, so he [has gone to the Sacred Tent and] is holding on to the corners of the altar. He is saying, ‘[Before I leave, ] I want King Solomon to solemnly promise that he will not command that I be executed.’”
52 Soloumane da bu adole i, “E da nama noga: le fa: no bobogesea, na da ea dialuma hinabo afaewane hame wadela: lesimu. Be e da noga: le hame bobogesea, e da bogosu ba: mu.”
Solomon replied, “If he proves that he is loyal to me, I will not harm him at all [IDM]. But if he does anything that is wrong, he will be executed.”
53 Amalalu, hina bagade Soloumane da A: dounaidia ema misa: ne sia: si. Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da A: dounaidia oloda amoga lale, hina bagadema oule asi. A: dounaidia da hina bagadema asili, ema gududafa begudui. Hina bagade da ema amane sia: i, “Di diasua ahoabada!”
So King Solomon sent [some men to Adonijah], and they brought him back from the altar. He came to Solomon and bowed down in front of him. Then Solomon said to him, “Go home.”
