1 Kings 1
1 Now king David had become elderly, and he had many days in his lifetime. And though he was covered with clothes, he was not warmed.
Na kua koroheketia a Kingi Rawiri, kua maha ona ra; a hipokina ana ia e ratou ki te kakahu; heoi kihai i mahana.
2 Therefore, his servants said to him: “Let us seek, for our lord the king, a young virgin. And let her stand before the king, and warm him, and sleep in his bosom, and provide warmth for our lord the king.”
No reira ka mea atu ana tangata ki a ia, Me rapu tetahi kotiro, he wahine, ma toku ariki, ma te kingi: a me tu ia i mua i te kingi, mana hoki ia e atawhia; a me takoto ia ki tou uma, kia mahana ai toku ariki, te kingi.
3 And so they sought a beautiful young woman in all the parts of Israel. And they found Abishag, a Shunammite, and they led her to the king.
Heoi rapua ana e ratou tetahi kotiro ataahua i nga rohe katoa o Iharaira; a kitea ana ko Apihaka Hunami, a kawea ana mai ia ki te kingi.
4 Now the girl was exceedingly beautiful. And she slept with the king, and she ministered to him. Yet truly, the king did not know her.
Na he ataahua rawa taua kotiro; a i atawhai ia i te kingi, i mahi hoki ki a ia: otira kihai te kingi i mohio ki a ia.
5 Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, exalted himself, saying, “I shall reign!” And he appointed for himself chariots and horsemen, with fifty men who would run before him.
Katahi a Aronia tama a Hakiti ka whakanui i a ia, ka mea, Ko ahau hei kingi: a meatia ana e ia etahi hariata mana, me etahi tangata noho hoiho, e rima tekau hoki nga tangata hei rere i tona aroaro.
6 Neither did his father chastise him at any time, saying, “Why have you done this?” Now he, too, was very beautiful, the second in birth, after Absalom.
Kihai hoki tona papa i whakapouri i tona ngakau o mua iho, kihai i mea, He aha koe i pena ai? he tangata ataahua rawa hoki ia; a i whanau ia i muri i a Apoharama.
7 And he conferred with Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar, the priest, who gave assistance to the side of Adonijah.
Na ka korerorero ia ki a Ioapa tama a Teruia, ki a Apiatara tohunga; a i whai raua i a Aronia, i awhina i a ia.
8 Yet truly, Zadok, the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan, the prophet, and Shimei and Rei, and the mature men of the army of David were not with Adonijah.
Ko Haroko tohunga ia, ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ko Natana matakite, ko Himei, ko Rei, ko nga tangata nunui a Rawiri, kihai ratou i uru ki ta Aronia.
9 Then Adonijah, having immolated rams and calves and every kind of fat cattle beside the Stone of the Serpent, which was in the vicinity of the fountain Rogel, summoned all his brothers, the sons of the king, and all the men of Judah, the servants of the king.
Na ka patua e Aronia he hipi, he kau, me nga mea momona, ki te kohatu ki Toherete, ki tera i te taha o Enerokere, a karangatia ana e ia ona teina katoa, nga tama a te kingi, ratou ko nga tangata katoa o Hura, nga pononga a te kingi:
10 But he did not summon Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, and all the mature men, and Solomon, his brother.
Ko Natana matakite ia, ko Penaia, ko nga tangata nunui, me tona teina, me Horomona, kihai i karangatia e ia.
11 And so Nathan said to Bathsheba, the mother of Solomon: “Have you not heard that Adonijah, the son of Haggith, has begun to reign, and that our lord David is ignorant of this?
Na ka korero a Natana ki a Patehepa whaea o Horomona, ka mea, Kahore ano koe i rongo ko Aronia tama a Hakiti te kingi, kahore hoki i te mohiotia e to tatou ariki, e Rawiri?
12 Now then, come, accept my counsel, and save your life and the life of your son Solomon.
Na haere mai, tukua maku e hoatu he whakaaro ki a koe, kia ora ai koe, kia ora ai hoki tau tama, a Horomona.
13 Go and enter to king David, and say to him: ‘Did you not, my lord the king, swear to me, your handmaid, saying: “Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he himself shall sit on my throne?” Then why does Adonijah reign?’
Haere, a ka tae ki a Kingi Rawiri, ka mea ki a ia, Kihai ianei koe i oati mai, e toku ariki, e te kingi, ki tau pononga, i mea, Ko Horomona tonu ko tau tama hei kingi i muri i ahau, ko ia hoki hei noho i toku torona? Na, he aha i kingi ai a Aron ia?
14 And while you are still speaking with the king there, I will enter after you, and I will complete your words.”
Na, e korero ana ano koe i reira ki te kingi, ka tae atu hoki ahau i muri i a koe, a maku e whakakoia ki au korero.
15 And so Bathsheba entered to the king in the bedroom. Now the king was very old, and Abishag, the Shunammite, was ministering to him.
Na ko te haerenga o Patehepa ki te whare moenga, ki te kingi: he koroheke rawa hoki te kingi; ko Apihaka Hunami ano ki te mahi i nga mea a te kingi.
16 Bathsheba bowed herself, and she reverenced the king. And the king said to her, “What do you wish?”
Na ka tuohu a Patehepa, ka piko ki te kingi, a ka mea te kingi, He aha tau?
17 And responding, she said: “My lord, you swore to your handmaid, by the Lord your God: ‘your son Solomon will reign after me, and he himself shall sit upon my throne.’
Na ka mea tera ki a ia, E toku ariki, i oatitia mai a Ihowa, tou Atua, e koe ki tau pononga, Ko Horomona tonu, ko tau tama hei kingi i muri i ahau, a ko ia hei noho ki toku torona.
18 And now behold, Adonijah reigns, while you, my lord the king, are ignorant of it.
Na, inaianei, kua kingi a Aronia; a kahore koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi, i te mohio:
19 He has slain oxen, and every kind of fattened cattle, and many rams. And he has summoned all the sons of the king, as well as Abiathar, the priest, and Joab, the leader of the military. But Solomon, your servant, he did not summon.
A kua patua e ia he kau, he mea momona, he hipi, tona tini; kua karangatia hoki nga tama katoa a te kingi, me Apiatara tohunga, me Ioapa rangatira ope; ko Horomona ia, ko tau pononga, kihai i karangatia e ia.
20 Truly now, my lord the king, the eyes of all of Israel look with favor upon you, that you may indicate to them who ought to sit upon your throne, my lord the king, after you.
Na ko koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi, e anga ana nga kanohi o Iharaira katoa ki a koe, kia whakaaturia ki a ratou ko wai e noho ki te torona o toku ariki, o te kingi, i muri i a ia.
21 Otherwise, this will be: when my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, I and my son Solomon will be as sinners.”
Na tenei ake, hei te moenga o toku ariki, o te kingi, ki ona matua, ka kiia maua ko taku tama, ko Horomona, he hunga hara.
22 And while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan, the prophet, arrived.
Na, i a ia ano e korero ana ki te kingi, ka tomo mai a Natana poropiti.
23 And they announced to the king, saying, “Nathan, the prophet, is here.” And when he had entered in the sight of the king, and he had reverenced prone on the ground,
A ka korerotia e ratou ki te kingi, ka mea, Ko Natana poropiti tenei. Na haere ana tera ki te aroaro o te kingi, a piko ana, tapapa ana ki te whenua ki te aroaro o te kingi.
24 Nathan said: “My lord the king, did you say, ‘Let Adonijah reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?’
Na ka mea a Natana, E toku ariki, e te kingi, i mea ranei koe, Ko Aronia hei kingi i muri i ahau, a ko ia hei noho ki toku torona?
25 For today, he descended, and he immolated oxen, and fattened cattle, and many rams. And he summoned all the sons of the king, and the leaders of the army, along with Abiathar, the priest. And they are eating and drinking before him, and saying, ‘As king Adonijah lives.’
Kua haere hoki ia ki raro i tenei ra, a kei te patu tera i te kau, i te mea momona, i te hipi, tona tini; a kua karangatia e ia nga tama katoa a te kingi ratou ko nga rangatira ope, ko Apiatara tohunga: kei te kai ratou, kei te inu i tona aroaro; e ki ana, Kia ora a Kingi Aronia.
26 But he did not summon me, your servant, and Zadok, the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Solomon, your lowly servant.
Ko ahau ia, ko tau pononga, ko matou ko Haroko tohunga, ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ko tau pononga, ko Horomona, kihai i karangatia e ia.
27 Could this word have gone out from my lord the king, and could you not have revealed it to me, your servant, as to who would be seated upon the throne of my lord the king after him?”
Na toku ariki ranei, na te kingi tenei mea, a kihai i whakaaturia e koe ki au pononga, ko wai e noho ki te torona o toku ariki, o te kingi i muri i a ia?
28 And king David responded, saying, “Summon to me Bathsheba.” And when she had entered before the king, and she had stood before him,
Na ka whakahoki a Kingi Rawiri, ka mea, Karangatia a Patehepa ki ahau. Na haere ana ia ki te aroaro o te kingi, a tu ana i te aroaro o te kingi.
29 the king swore and said: “As the Lord lives, who has rescued my soul from all distress,
Na ko te oatitanga a te kingi, ka mea, E ora ana a Ihowa i whakaora nei i ahau i nga mate katoa,
30 just as I swore to you by the Lord God of Israel, saying: ‘Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he himself shall sit upon my throne in my place,’ so shall I do this day.”
Ko aku oatitanga i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira ki a koe, i ahau i mea ra, He pono, ko Horomona, ko tau tama, hei kingi i muri i ahau, ko ia hoki hei noho ki toku torona i muri i ahau; he pono me pena ano e ahau i tenei ra.
31 And Bathsheba, having lowered her face to the ground, reverenced the king, saying, “May my lord David live forever.”
Katahi ka tuohu a Patehepa, anga tonu tona mata ki te whenua, piko ana ki te aroaro o te kingi, ka mea, Kia ora toku ariki, a Kingi Rawiri, a ake ake.
32 And king David said, “Summon to me Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada.” And when they had entered before the king,
Na ka mea a Kingi Rawiri, Karangatia a Haroko tohunga ki ahau, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara. Na haere ana mai ratou ki te aroaro o te kingi.
33 he said to them: “Take with you the servants of your lord, and place my son Solomon upon my mule. And lead him to Gihon.
Na ka mea te kingi ki a ratou, Mauria nga pononga a to koutou ariki hei hoa mo koutou, ka whakanoho i a Horomona, i taku tama, ki toku muera, ki toku ake, ka kawe i a ia ki raro, ki Kihona:
34 And let Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, anoint him in that place as the king over Israel. And you shall sound the trumpet, and you shall say, ‘As king Solomon lives.’
A ma Haroko tohunga raua ko Natana poropiti ia e whakawahi ki reira hei kingi mo Iharaira; me whakatangi hoki te tetere, me mea, Kia ora a Kingi Horomona.
35 And you shall ascend after him, and he shall arrive and shall sit upon my throne. And he himself shall reign in my place. And I will command that he be the ruler over Israel and over Judah.”
Na ka piki ake koutou i muri i a ia, a ka tae mai ia, ka noho ki toku torona; a hei kingi ia i muri i ahau; he mea whakarite naku hei rangatira ia mo Iharaira raua ko Hura.
36 And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, responded to the king, saying: “Amen. So says the Lord, the God of my lord the king.
Na ka whakahoki a Penaia tama a Iehoiara ki ta te kingi, ka mea, Amine: kia pena mai hoki te ki a Ihowa, a te Atua o toku ariki, o te kingi.
37 In the same way that the Lord has been with my lord the king, so may he be with Solomon. And may he make his throne more sublime than the throne of my lord, king David.”
I toku ariki nei, i te kingi, a Ihowa, kia pena ano ia ki a Horomona; a kia whakanuia ake tona torona ki runga ake i te torona o toku ariki, o Kingi Rawiri.
38 Then Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, descended, with Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and Pelethites. And they placed Solomon on the mule of king David, and they led him to Gihon.
Heoi ka haere a Haroko tohunga, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara, me nga Kereti, me nga Pereti ki raro, a whakanohoia ana e ratou a Horomona ki te muera o Kingi Rawiri, a kawea ana ki Kihona.
39 And Zadok, the priest, took the horn of oil from the tabernacle, and he anointed Solomon. And they sounded the trumpet. And all the people said, “As king Solomon lives.”
Na tangohia ana e Haroko tohunga te haona hinu i roto i te tapenakara, a whakawahia ana e ia a Horomona. Na ka whakatangihia e ratou te tetere; a ka mea katoa te iwi, Kia ora a Kingi Horomona.
40 And the entire multitude ascended after him. And the people were playing on pipes, and rejoicing with great joy. And the earth resounded before the noise of them.
Na piki ake ana te iwi katoa i muri i a ia, me te whakatangi te iwi i nga putorino; nui atu hoki te koa i koa ai ratou, ngatata ana te whenua i to ratou hamama.
41 Then Adonijah, and all who had been summoned by him, heard it. And now the feast had ended. Then, too, Joab, hearing the voice of the trumpet, said, “What is the meaning of this clamor from the tumultuous city?”
Na ka rongo a Aronia ratou ko ana manuhiri i a ratou e whakamutu ana i ta ratou kai. A, no te rongonga o Ioapa i te tangi o te tetere, ka mea ake, He aha tenei hamama o te pa e ngangau mai nei?
42 While he was still speaking, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, arrived. And Adonijah said to him, “Enter, for you are a valiant man, and you report good news.”
I a ia ano e korero ana, na ko Honatana tama a Apiatara tohunga e haere mai ana; a ka mea a Aronia, Haere mai; he tangata maia hoki koe, a he korero pai au.
43 And Jonathan answered Adonijah: “By no means. For our lord king David has appointed Solomon as king.
Na ka whakahoki a Honatana, ka mea atu ki a Aronia, He pono rawa, kua meinga a Horomona e to tatou ariki, e Kingi Rawiri, hei kingi.
44 And he has sent with him Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and Pelethites. And they have placed him on the mule of the king.
A kua unga e te kingi hei hoa mona a Haroko tohunga, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ratou ko nga Kereti, ko nga Pereti; a kua whakanohoia ia e ratou ki te muera o te kingi:
45 And Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, have anointed him king, at Gihon. And they are ascending from there, rejoicing, and so the city resounds. This is the noise that you have heard.
A kua whakawahia ia e Haroko tohunga, e Natana poropiti hei kingi ki Kihona: na kua piki ake ratou i reira me te koa, na ngateri ana te pa. Ko te hamama tenei i rongo na koutou.
46 But also, Solomon sits upon the throne of the kingdom.
A ko Horomona hoki tenei te noho mai nei i runga i te torona o te kingitanga.
47 And the servants of the king, entering, have blessed our lord king David, saying: ‘May God amplify the name of Solomon above your name, and may he magnify his throne above your throne.’ And the king reverenced from his bed.
A kua tae mai hoki nga pononga a te kingi ki te manaaki i to tatou ariki, i a Kingi Rawiri, ki te mea, Kia meinga e tou Atua te ingoa o Horomona kia pai atu i tou ingoa, kia whakanuia ake e ia tona torona i tou torona. Na piko ana te kingi i run ga i te moenga.
48 And he said: ‘Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who today has bestowed someone to sit upon my throne, while my eyes may see it.’”
A i penei hoki te kupu a te kingi, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira, mona kua homai nei i tetahi hei noho i toku torona i tenei ra, me te kite atu ano oku kanohi.
49 Therefore, all those who had been summoned by Adonijah were terrified. And they all rose up, and each one went his own way.
Na ka pawera nga manuhiri a Aronia, whakatika ana, a haere ana i tona ara, i tona ara.
50 Then Adonijah, fearing Solomon, rose up and went away. And he took hold of the horn of the altar.
A wehi ana a Aronia i a Horomona, a whakatika ana, ka haere, a ka hopu i nga haona o te aata.
51 And they reported to Solomon, saying: “Behold, Adonijah, fearing king Solomon, has taken hold of the horn of the altar, saying: ‘May king Solomon swear to me this day that he will not put to death his servant with the sword.’”
Na ka korerotia te korero ki a Horomona, Ko Aronia tera e wehi anai a Kingi Horomona; kei te pupuri ano tera i nga haona o te aata; e mea ana, Kia oati a Kingi Horomona ki ahau aianei, e kore a whakamatea e ia tana pononga ki te hoari.
52 And Solomon said: “If he is a good man, not so much as one hair of his head shall fall to the ground. But if evil is found in him, he shall die.”
Na ka mea a Horomona, Ki te mea he tikanga pai tana, e kore e taka tetahi makawe ona ki te whenua; tena ki te kitea he he tona, ka mate.
53 Therefore, king Solomon sent and brought him from the altar. And entering, he reverenced king Solomon. And Solomon said to him, “Go to your own house.”
Heoi ka tono tangata a Kingi Horomona ki te tiki i a ia, i runga i te aata. A haere mai ana ia, piko ana ki a Kingi Horomona; a ka mea a horomona ki a ia, Haere ki tou whare.
