1 Kings 2
1 The time of David's death was approaching, so he gave his son Solomon these last instructions:
Hagi Devitima fri kna'amo'ma egoftama nehigeno'a, amanage huno nemofo Solomonina asami'ne,
2 “I am about to go the way everybody on earth must go. Be brave, and act like a man.
Kofta hu'na nagra frigahue. Hagi ve mofavremo'ma nehiaza hunka oti hanavetinenka,
3 Do what God orders you to do, follow his ways. Keep his rules, his commands, and his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses, so you may be successful in everything you do, and in everything you give your attention to.
Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamo'ma huoma hania zana nehunka, maka avu'ava'a avaririo. Hagi Mosese avontafepima krente'nea tra ke'ane, kasege'anema kegava hunka avaririsankeno'a, maka zama hanana zamo'ene, kama vanana kamo'a knare hugahie.
4 If so, then the Lord will keep his promise to me when he said: ‘If your descendants are to live right before me, faithfully and with complete commitment, then you will always have one of them on the throne of Israel.’
Hagi ana'ma hanankeno'a Ra Anumzamo'ma huhamprinante'nea kemo'a nena raga regahie. Agra amanage huno hu'ne, Ne' mofavreka'amo'zama vahe'ma maniga kante nemaniza, maka zupa kazigazi hu'za miko tumozimireti'ene, zamagu zamenteti'ma hu'za navaririsazana Israeli vahete'ma kinima mani vahekura ohakegosazanki, kagri mofavre nagapinti mago zimimo kinia otitere hugahie huno nasami'ne.
5 In addition, you know what Joab, son of Zeruiah, did to me and what he did to Abner, son of Ner, and Amasa, son of Jether, the two army commanders of Israel. He murdered them, spilling the blood of war during a time of peace. He smeared the blood of war on his belt and on his sandals.
Hagi Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ma hunante'nea avu'avazamofo kea antahi'nane. Agra tare Israeli sondia kva netrena, Neri nemofo Abnane, Jeta nemofo Amasakigiznia zanahe fri'ne. Hagi anama zanahe'neana hapina ozanahe'neanki, fru hu'ne amne mani'na'a knafi zanaheno korazani'a eri tagi'nea koramo'a amu'nofimofone agia anomofonte me'ne.
6 Do what you think is right, but don't let his gray head go down peacefully into the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Hagi kagra knare antahintahika'a avaririnka e'ina zantera nona hunto. Hagi atregeno amanea mani'neno ozafa reno rimpa frunena ofrino. (Sheol h7585)
7 But be kind to the sons of Barzillai of Gilead. Bring them into your royal court, for they helped me when I ran from your brother Absalom.
Hagi Giliati ne' Basilai ne'mofavreramina zamatrege'za kagranema nezama nenaza traka'areti'ma nenaza naga'ene neho. Na'ankure negafu Absalomunkuma koro'ma fre'na nevugeno'a, zamagra knare zamavu'zamava nagrira hunante'naze.
8 Don't you forget Shimei, son of Gera, the Benjamite from Bahurim who cursed me with painful words when I went to Mahanaim. When he met me at the Jordan I swore to him by the Lord, ‘I will not kill you with the sword.’
Hagi Bahurimi kumateti Benzameni nagapinti ne' Gera nemofo Simeinkura kagera okanio. Agra Mahanaimi kumate'ma nevugeno'a kazusi ke hunanteno nazeri haviza hu'ne. Hianagi Jodani tinte'ma eme nege'na Ra Anumzamofo avufi huvempa hunte'na amanage hu'noe, Kahe ofrigosue hu'na hu'noe.
9 So don't leave him unpunished. You're a wise man and you know what you have to do to him—send him down into the grave with blood on his gray head.” (Sheol h7585)
Hianagi atregeno e'ina kemo'a hazenke'a erifrara okino. Hagi kagra knare antahintahika'a avaririnka e'ina zantera nona hunto. Hanki atregeno amanea mani'neno ozafa reno ofri'nianki, ahenka korama'a eri tagigeno frino. (Sheol h7585)
10 Then David died and his was buried in the City of David.
Hagi anante Deviti'a frige'za agri rankumapi Jerusalemi asente'naze.
11 His reign over Israel lasted forty years; seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Hagi Deviti'a 40'a kafufi kinia mani'neno, Israeli vahera kegava hu'ne. Hagi ana 40'a kafuma mani'nefina 7ni'a kafua Hebroni maniteno, 33'a kafua Jerusalemi umani'ne.
12 Solomon took over as king, sitting on the throne of his father David, and his hold on his kingdom was secure.
Hagi anama higeno'a Solomoni'a nefa nona erino Deviti kini tratera kinia mani'ne. Hagi Solomoni'a hankave kini ne' fore huno hanavenentake higeno magozamo'a azeri atregara osu'ne.
13 Adonijah, son of Haggith, went to see Bathsheba, Solomon's mother. She asked him, “Have you come here with good intentions?” He replied, “Yes, with good intentions.”
Mago zupa Hagiti ne'mofo Adoniza'a Solomoni nerera Batseba kenaku e'ne. Hagi anama egeno'a, Batseba'a amanage huno antahige'ne. Kagra knare kazigati ampi? huno higeno, Adoniza'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Knare naneke kasaminaku oe nehuno,
14 “I have something I'd like to ask of you,” he continued. “Go on,” she said.
amanage hu'ne, Nagra mago'a ke kasaminaku e'noe, higeno Batseba'a amanage hu'ne, Huge'na antahi'neno huno hu'ne.
15 “You know that the kingdom was mine,” he declared, “and everyone in Israel was looking forward to me being their next king. But everything was turned upside-down, and the kingdom passed to my brother, because that's what the Lord wanted.
Higeno Adoniza'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra antahi'nane, esera mika Israeli vahe'mo'za nagriku kini manigahie hu'za hu'naze. Hianagi ana kini tramo'a ete nenafu azampi vigeno, nenagna kinia manie. Na'ankure ko Ra Anumzamo agri huhamprinte'ne.
16 Now I've just one request to ask of you—please don't say no.” “Tell me,” she said.
Hanki nagra menina magoke zanku kantahigegahue. Muse hugantoanki ama ana keni'a antahinamio, higeno Batseba'a amanage huno hu'ne, Hugena antahineno huno hu'ne.
17 He went on, “Please talk to King Solomon for me because he won't turn you down. Ask him to give me Abishag from Shunem as my wife.”
Anagema higeno'a Adoniza'a amanage huno asami'ne, Muse hugantoanki kini ne' Solomonina antahigegeno, Sunamiti a' Abisakina naminkena a' eri'neno. Na'ankure kagrama hananankea antahigahie.
18 “Very well,” Bathsheba replied. “I will talk to the king for you.”
Higeno Batseba'a amanage huno asami'ne, Knareki'na kagri kea eri'na kini nera ome antahigegahue.
19 So Bathsheba went to talk to King Solomon for Adonijah. The king got up from his throne to meet her, and bowed before her. Then he sat back down and ordered another throne brought in for his mother. She sat to his right.
Anage nehuno Batseba'a Adoniza agi erino Solomonina ome antahigenaku vu'ne. Hagi kini ne' Solomoni'ma Batsebama negeno'a, otino arena reno kepri nehuno, eri'za vahe'a kehige'za mago trara eri'za azantmaga kaziga eme antazageno, nerera'a ana trate mani'ne.
20 “I have just one small request to ask of you,” she said. “Please don't say no.” The king replied, “Ask away, dear mother. I won't say no to you.”
Hagi Batseba'a ana trate'ma maniteno'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra mago osi zanku kantahigegahue, hanki ana keni'a eri otrenka antahinamio. Anante kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne. Antanimoka amne nantahigo, na'ankure kagra antahi'nane, nagra keka'arera i'o hu'na osugahue.
21 “Please give Abishag from Shunem to your brother Adonijah as his wife,” she replied.
Hanki Batseba'a amanage hu'ne, Atregeno negafu Adoniza'a Sunemiti ara a' avrenteno.
22 King Solomon answered his mother, “Why on earth are you asking me to give Abishag to Adonijah? You might as well ask me to give my brother the kingdom! He is my older brother, and Abiathar the priest and Joab, son of Zeruiah, are on his side!”
Anagema higeno'a kini ne' Solomoni'a amanage hu'ne, Nagafare Sunemiti ara Abisakina Adonizana amio hunka eme nantahinegane? E'ina'ma hunaku'ma hanunka fatgo hunka nantahigege'na atranenkeno nagri no erino kinia manino. Na'ankure agra nempuni'a manigeno agri kaziga pristi ne' Abiata'ene, Seruia nemofo Joapukea mani'na'e.
23 Then King Solomon vowed before the Lord, “May God punish me, really punish me, if what Adonijah has asked for doesn't cost him his life.
Anage nehuno Solomoni'a Ra Anumzamofo avufi amanage huno huvempagea hu'ne. Adoniza'ma amanahu ke'ma hire'ma ahe ofrisugeno'a Anumzamo'a nagrira nahe frigahie!
24 So I vow, as the Lord lives, who affirmed me as king and placed me on the throne of my father David, making me the head of a dynasty as he promised, Adonijah shall be executed today.”
E'ina hu'negu menina Ra Anumzamo'ma naza huno hankave naminege'na nenfa Deviti kini trate'ma nagri naga'ma huhampri'nea kante'ma ante'na kini tratera mani'ne'na mani vava Anumzamofo agifi huankino, Adoniza'a meninke frigahie.
25 King Solomon sent Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, who carried out the king's orders and executed Adonijah.
Anage nehuno kini ne' Solomoni'a Jehoiada nemofo Benaia huntegeno vuno, Adonizana ome ahegeno fri'ne.
26 In the case of Abiathar, the high priest, the king told him, “Go home and take care of your fields. You should be condemned to death, but I will not kill you right now because you carried the Ark of the Lord God ahead of my father David and went through all his hard times with him.”
Hagi kini ne'mo'a pristi ne' Abiatana amanage huno asami'ne, kagra ete mopakarega Anatoti vuo. Hianagi menina kagrira kahe ofrigahue. Na'ankure kagra nenfa Deviti'ene mani'nenka Ra Anumzana hankavenentake Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisi e'nerinka, nenfa'ma hazenke knafima mani'negenka aza hunka nenfa knazana eri'nane.
27 So Solomon dismissed Abiathar from his position as priest of the Lord, and so fulfilled what the Lord had said at Shiloh regarding the descendants of Eli.
E'inage nehuno kini ne'mo'a Ra Anumzamo'ma Sailo kumate Eli naga'ma kasnampa ke huzamante'nea kante anteno Abiatana pristi eri'zama'afintira ahenati'ne.
28 When Joab heard the news he ran to the Lord's Tent and grabbed hold of the horns of the altar. (He had not supported Absalom's rebellion but he had supported Adonijah.)
Hagi Joapu'a Absalomu'ma kinima mani'naku'ma nehigeno'a agri'enena tragoteno mani'neno aza osu'ne. Hianagi Adoniza'ma kinima mani'zama nehigeno'a, Adoniza'ene ome tragoteno mani'neno aza hu'ne. E'ina hu'neankino Adonizama ahaza nanekema nentahino'a, freno vuno ruotge seli mono nompi Ra Anumzamofo kre sramnavu itare'ma me'nea pazivetaminte ome azeriteno mani'ne.
29 When King Solomon was told that Joab was seeking sanctuary by the altar, he sent Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, to execute him.
Hagi kini ne' Solomonina ome asami'za amanage hu'naze, Joapu'a freno vuno Ra Anumzamofo seli mono no kumapi kre sramnavu itare'ma me'nea pazivete ome azerintrako huteno mani'ne. Hagi ana nanekema nentahino'a Solomoni'a Jehoiada nemofo Benaia hunteno, Joapuna ome ahegeno frino!
30 Benaiah went to the Lord's Tent and told called to Joab, “The king orders you to come out!” “No! I'll die here!” Joab replied. Benaiah went back to the king and told him what Joab had said.
Anagema higeno'a Benaia'a Ra Anumzamofo seli nompi eazamo amanage huno Joapuna eme asami'ne, Kini ne'mo'a fegi atiramio huno hianki fegia atiramio. Hianagi Joapu'a amanage huno hu'ne, I'o nagra ama anante frigahue. Hagi agrama hia nanekea erino vuno Joapu'a anage hie huno kini nera ome asami'ne.
31 “Do as he says,” the king told Benaiah. “Strike him down and bury him. In that way you will remove from me and my family the guilt of the innocent blood that Joab shed.
Kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Knareki agri ke avaririnka anante ome ahegeno frina asentegeno Joapu'ma hazenke'a omane vahe'ma zamahe'nea kanazamo'a tagritera omaneno.
32 The Lord will pay him back for the blood he shed, for without my father David's knowledge, he killed two good men who were better than he was. With his sword he killed Abner, son of Ner, commander of Israel's army, and Amasa, son of Jether, commander of Judah's army.
Hagi hazenkezani omne netrema zanahe'nea zantera, Ra Anumzamo agrake Joapuna nona huntegahie. Na'ankure agra hazenkezni omne netre Israeli vahe sondia kva ne' Neri nemofo Abnane, Juda vahe sondia vahetaminte kva ne Jetari nemofo Amasanena nenfa'a keno antahino osu'negeno zanahe'ne.
33 May the responsibility for shedding their blood come back on Joab and his descendants forever; but may the Lord give peace and prosperity to David, his descendants, his family, and his dynasty forever.”
E'ina hu'negu ana netremofo knazamo'a Joapunte'ene agripinti'ma forehu anante anante hu'zama vanaza vahepi mevava huno vugahie. Hianagi Devitinte'ene agripinti'ma forehu anante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'ene, naga'are'ene, kini tra'are mani'za esaza vahetera maka zupa Ra Anumzamofo arimpa fruzamo mevava huno vanie.
34 So Benaiah son of Jehoiada returned and killed Joab. He was buried at his home in the wilderness.
Hagi anante Jehoiada nemofo Benaia'a vuno ruotge seli mono nompi Joapuna ome ahe frigeno, avufa'a eri'za hagege kokampi noma'afinka ome asente'naze.
35 The king appointed Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, to take over Joab's role as army commander, and replaced Abiathar with Zadok the priest.
Hagi ana nehuno kini ne'mo'a Joapu nontera Benaiana azeri otigeno sondia vahetera ugota kva manigeno, pristi ne' Abiata nontera, Zadoki azeri otigeno pristia mani'ne.
36 Then the king summoned Shimei and told him, “Go and build yourself a house in Jerusalem and stay there, but don't leave and go anywhere else.
Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a Simeintega amanage huno kea atrente'ne, kagra Jerusalemi nona ome kinka manio. Hianagi ana kumapintira atrenka rurega vunka enka osutfa huo.
37 You should know for certain that the day you leave and cross the Kidron Valley you will die. Your death will be your own responsibility.”
Hanki ana kuma'ma atrenka Kidroni kraho'ma agaterenka nevanunka, nagra frigahue hunka kagesa antahio. Hagi anama hunka kagrama frisankeno'a, fri'nana knazamo'a kagrite megahie.
38 “What Your Majesty says is fair,” Shimei replied. “Your servant will do as my lord the king has ordered.” Shimei lived in Jerusalem for a long time.
Hanki Simei'a amanage huno kini ne'mofo kerera hu'ne, kini nera nanekema refko'ma hunka ketenka hunantana kemo'a fatgo hianki'na rana kini nimokama hanankemofona, eri'za nekamo'na avaririgahue. Anage nehuno Simei'a zaza kna Jerusalemia mani'ne.
39 But three years later, two of Shimei's slaves escaped to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. Shimei was told, “Look, your slaves are in Gath.”
Hianagi 3'a kafuma enevigeno'a, Simei eri'za netremokea atrene freke Gati kini ne' Maka nemofo Akisi'ene Gati kumate umani'na'e. Hagi Simeina mago'a vahe'mo'za asami'za, Eri'za neka'araremokea freke Gati kumate umani'na'e huza asamizageno,
40 So Shimei saddled up his donkey and went to Achish in Gath to look for his slaves. He found them and brought them back from Gath.
Simei'a tonki afu'a retro huteno agumpi marerino eri'za netrema'agu hakeno Gati kumate Akisinte vu'ne. Hagi ana eri'za netre'na ome zanageno, Gati kumatetira ete zanavreno e'ne.
41 Solomon was informed that Shimei had left Jerusalem to go to Gath, and had then returned.
Hagi Simei'ma Jerusalemima atreno Gatima vuteno eankema Solomoni'ma nentahino'a,
42 The king summoned Shimei and asked him, “Didn't I vow to you by the Lord, didn't I warn you that the day you left and went somewhere else that you should know for certain that you would die? Didn't you reply to me, ‘What Your Majesty says is fair; I'll do as you ordered’?
kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kea atrente'ne, Nagra Ra Anumzamofo avufi huvempa hu'na Jerusalemi kuma'ma atrenka ru kumate'ma vanunka frigahane hu'na hu'noe. Hagi anagema hugenka, kagra amanage hu'nane, kini nera nanekema refko'ma hunka ketenka hunantana kemo'a fatgo hianki'na ana kemofo avaririgahue hu'nane.
43 So why haven't you kept your vow to the Lord, and obeyed my orders?”
Hagi nahigenka Ra Anumzamofo avufima huvempama hunka avaririgahue hu'nana kea rutragenane?
44 The king also told Shimei, “Deep down you know all the evil things you did to my father David. That's why the Lord will repay you for your evil.
Hagi kini ne'mo'a Simeinkura mago'ane amanage hu'ne, kefo kavukava'ma nenfa Devitima hunte'nana zana kagra'a antahi'nane. E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a ana knazamofo nona'a kagrira kazeri haviza hugahie.
45 But I, King Solomon, will be blessed and David's dynasty will be kept safe in the presence of the Lord forever.”
Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a nagrira asomu hunante'nigeno, Ra Anumzamofo avurera Deviti kini tramo'a agripintima fore hunante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahepi mevava huno vugahie.
46 The king ordered Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, to execute Shimei, so he went and killed Shimei. In this way Solomon's hold on the kingdom was made secure.
Ana huteno Jehoiada nemofo Benaia huntegeno, Simeina ome ahe fri'ne. Ana huteno Solomoni'a hankavenentake kini fore huno vahera kegava hu'ne.
