1 Kings 2

1 NOW the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,

Sa pagdating ng araw ng malapit nang mamatay si David, inutusan niya si Solomon na kaniyang anak, sinabi niya,

2 I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man;

“Papunta na ako sa lupa. Kaya maging malakas ka at ipakita mong lalaki ka.

3 And keep the charge of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:

Sundin mo ang mga utos ni Yahweh na iyong Diyos na lumakad sa kaniyang mga pamamaraan, na sumunod sa kaniyang mga alituntunin, kautusan, desisyon, at mga kautusan sa tipan, maging maingat na gawin kung ano ang nakasulat sa batas ni Moises, sa gayon magtatagumpay ka sa lahat ng gagawin mo, saan ka man pumunta,

4 That the Lord may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.

upang tuparin ni Yahweh ang kaniyang salita na sinabi niya tungkol sa akin, na sinasabi niyang, 'Kung maingat na binabantayan ng mga anak mong lalaki ang kanilang pag-uugali, na lalakad nang matapat sa harapan ko nang kanilang buong puso at kaluluwa, hindi titigil kailanman na magkaroon ka ng isang lalaki sa trono ng Israel.'

5 Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.

Alam mo rin kung ano ang ginawa sa akin ni Joab na anak ni Zeruias, at kung ano ang ginawa niya sa dalawang kumander ng mga hukbo ng Israel, kay Abner na anak ni Ner, at kay Amasa na anak ni Jeter, na pinatay niya. Pinadanak niya ang dugo ng digmaan sa panahon ng kapayapaan at inilagay ang dugo ng digmaan sa sinturon sa palibot ng kaniyang baywang at sa mga sapatos niya sa kaniyang mga paa.

6 Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace. (Sheol h7585)

Pakitunguhan mo si Joab gamit ang karunungan na natutunan mo, pero huwag mong hayaang ang kaniyang kulay abong ulo ay mapunta sa libingan nang may kapayapaan. (Sheol h7585)

7 But shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.

Subalit, magpakita ka ng kabaitan sa mga anak na lalaki ni Barsilai na taga-Galaad, at hayaan mo silang makasama sa mga kumakain sa iyong mesa, dahil pumunta sila sa akin noong tumakas ako sa kapatid mong si Absalom.

8 And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the Lord, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.

Tingnan mo, kasama mo si Semei na anak ni Gera, ang Benjaminita ng Bahurim, na sinumpa ako ng isang napakasamang sumpa noong araw na pumunta ako sa Mahanaim. Bumaba si Semei para salubungin ako sa Jordan, at sumumpa ako sa kaniya kay Yahweh, sinasabi ko, 'Hindi kita papatayin gamit ang espada.'

9 Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou art a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do unto him; but his hoar head bring thou down to the grave with blood. (Sheol h7585)

Kaya ngayon, huwag mo siyang hayaang makawala mula sa kaparusahan. Isa kang matalinong tao, at malalaman mo kung ano ang dapat mong gawin sa kaniya. Dadalhin mo ang kaniyang kulay abong ulo sa libingan nang may dugo.” (Sheol h7585)

10 So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

Pagkatapos, nahimlay na si David kasama ang kaniyang mga ninuno at inilibing sa lungsod ni David.

11 And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

Ang mga araw na naghari si David sa Israel ay apatnapung taon. Naghari siya sa Hebron ng pitong taon at sa Jerusalem ng tatlumpu't tatlong taon.

12 Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.

Pagkatapos naupo si Solomon sa trono ng kaniyang ama na si David, at ang kaniyang pamumuno ay naging matatag.

13 And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.

Pagkatapos, pumunta si Adonias na anak ni Haguit kay Batsheba na ina ni Solomon. Sinabi niya, “Pumunta ka ba dito nang may kapayapaan?” Sinagot niya, “Mapayapa.”

14 He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.

Pagkatapos ay sinabi niya, “Mayroon akong nais sabihin sa iyo.” Kaya sumagot siya, “Magsalita ka.”

15 And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother’s: for it was his from the Lord.

Sinabi ni Adonias, “Alam mo na ang kaharian ay sa akin, at inasahan akong maging hari ng buong Israel. Gayunpaman, bumaliktad ang naganap sa kaharian at napunta sa aking kapatid, dahil ito ay sa kaniya mula kay Yahweh.

16 And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.

Ngayon mayroon akong isang kahilingan sa iyo. Huwag mo akong tanggihan.” Sinabi sa kaniya ni Batsheba, “Magsalita ka.”

17 And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay, ) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.

Sinabi niya, “Pakiusap, kausapin mo si Solomon na hari, dahil hindi ka niya tatanggihan, para ibigay niya sa akin si Abisag na taga-Sunem bilang aking asawa.”

18 And Bath-sheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.

Sinabi ni Batsheba, “Kung ganoon, kakausapin ko ang hari.”

19 Bath-sheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king’s mother; and she sat on his right hand.

Kaya pumunta si Batsheba kay Haring Solomon para kausapin siya para kay Adonias. Tumayo ang hari para salubungin siya at yumuko siya sa kaniya. Pagkatapos ay naupo siya sa kaniyang trono at nagpakuha ng trono para sa ina ng hari. Naupo siya sa bandang kanang kamay niya.

20 Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee, say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.

Pagkatapos, sinabi niya, “Gusto kong humiling ng isang maliit na kahilingan sa iyo; huwag mo akong tanggihan.” Sinagot siya ng hari, “Humiling ka, aking ina, dahil hindi kita tatanggihan.”

21 And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.

Sinabi niya, “Ibigay mo si Abisag na taga-Sunem kay Adonias na iyong kapatid bilang kaniyang asawa.”

22 And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.

Sumagot si Haring Solomon at sinabi sa kaniyang ina, “Bakit mo hinihingi si Abisag na taga-Sunem para kay Adonias? Bakit hindi mo rin hingin ang kaharian para sa kaniya, dahil siya ang aking nakatatandang kapatid—para sa kaniya, para kay Abiatar na pari, at para kay Joab na anak ni Zeruias?”

23 Then king Solomon sware by the Lord, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.

Pagkatapos ay sumumpa si Haring Solomon kay Yahweh, sinasabi niya, “Nawa'y gawin sa akin ng Diyos, at mas higit pa, kung hindi ito sinabi ni Adonias laban sa kaniyang sariling buhay.

24 Now therefore, as the Lord liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.

Kaya ngayon sa kay Yahweh na buhay, na nagtatag at naglagay sa akin sa trono ni David na aking ama, at ang gumawa ng sambahayan sa akin tulad ng ipinangako niya, tiyak na papatayin si Adonias ngayon.”

25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.

Kaya pinadala ni Haring Solomon si Benaias na anak ni Joiada at nahanap ni Benaias si Adonias at pinatay siya.

26 And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.

At kay Abiatar na pari, sinabi ng hari, “Pumunta ka sa Anatot, sa sarili mong bukirin. Dapat kang patayin, pero hindi kita papatayin sa oras na ito, dahil binuhat mo ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoong si Yahweh sa harap ni David na aking ama at kasama kang naghirap sa bawat paghihirap ng aking ama.”

27 So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the Lord; that he might fulfil the word of the Lord, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

Kaya inalis ni Solomon si Abiatar mula sa pagiging pari ni Yahweh, para matupad niya ang salita ni Yahweh, na sinabi niya tungkol sa sambahayan ni Eli sa Silo.

28 Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the Lord, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

Dumating ang balita kay Joab, dahil sinuportahan ni Joab si Adonias, pero hindi niya sinuportahan si Absalom. Kaya pumunta si Joab sa tolda ni Yahweh at kinuha ang mga sungay sa altar.

29 And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the Lord; and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.

Sinabi kay Haring Solomon na si Joab ay tumakas papunta sa tolda ni Yahweh at ngayo'y nasa tabi ng altar. Kaya sinugo ni Solomon si Benaias na anak ni Joiada, sinasabi niya, “Humayo ka, patayin mo siya.”

30 And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the Lord, and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.

Kaya pumunta si Benaias sa tolda ni Yahweh at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ang sabi ng hari, 'Lumabas ka.'” Sumagot si Joab, “Hindi, mamamatay ako dito.” Kaya bumalik si Benaias sa hari, sinasabi niya, “Sinabi ni Joab na gusto niyang mamatay sa altar.”

31 And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.

Sinabi sa kaniya ng hari, “Gawin mo kung ano ang sinabi niya. Patayin mo siya at ilibing, para maalis mo mula sa akin at sa sambahayan ng aking ama ang dugo na pinadanak ni Joab nang walang dahilan.

32 And the Lord shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing thereof, to wit, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.

Nawa'y ibalik ni Yahweh ang dugo sa kaniyang sarili, dahil nilusob niya ang dalawang lalaking mas matuwid at mas mabuti kaysa sa kaniya at pinatay sila gamit ang espada, sila Abner na anak ni Ner, ang kapitan ng hukbo ng Israel, at Amasa na anak ni Jeter, ang kapitan ng hukbo ng Juda, nang hindi nalalaman ng aking amang si David.

33 Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the Lord.

Kaya nawa ang dugo nila ay bumalik sa ulo ni Joab at sa ulo ng kaniyang mga kaapu-apuhan magpakailanman. Pero kay David at sa kaniyang mga kaapu-apuhan, at kaniyang sambahayan, at sa kaniyang trono, nawa'y magkaroon ng kapayapaan mula kay Yahweh magpakailanman.”

34 So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

Pagkatapos, umalis si Benaias na anak ni Joiada at sinalakay si Joab at pinatay siya. Inilibing siya sa kaniyang sariling bahay sa ilang.

35 And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host: and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.

Nilagay ng hari si Benaias na anak ni Joiada sa hukbo kapalit niya, at nilagay niya si Sadoc na pari kapalit ni Abiatar.

36 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.

Pagkatapos ay pinadala at pinatawag niya si Semei, at sinabi sa kaniya, “Magtayo ka ng bahay sa Jerusalem at manirahan doon, at huwag kang lalabas mula doon papunta kahit saang lugar.

37 For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.

Dahil sa araw na umalis ka, at dumaan sa Lambak ng Kidron, dapat mong malaman na tiyak kang mamamatay. Ang dugo ay mapupunta sa iyong sarili.”

38 And Shimei said unto the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

Kaya sinabi ni Semei sa hari, “Ang sinasabi mo ay mabuti. Tulad ng sinabi ng aking panginoon na hari, gagawin ng iyong lingkod.” Kaya nanirahan si Semei sa Jerusalem nang maraming araw.

39 And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants be in Gath.

Pero sa pagtatapos ng tatlong taon, dalawa sa mga lingkod ni Semei ay tumakas papunta kay Achish na anak ni Maaca na hari ng Gat. Kaya sinabi nila kay Semei, “Tingnan mo, ang mga lingkod mo ay nasa Gat.”

40 And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.

At tumayo si Semei, inihanda niya ang kaniyang asno, at pumunta kay Achish sa Gat para hanapin ang kaniyang mga lingkod. Umalis siya at kinuha ang kaniyang mga lingkod mula sa Gat.

41 And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.

Nang sinabihan si Solomon na umalis si Semei mula sa Jerusalem papuntang Gat at bumalik,

42 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the Lord, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word that I have heard is good.

nagsugo ang hari at pinatawag si Semei at sinabi sa kaniyang, “Hindi ba kita pinanumpa kay Yahweh, at nagpatotoo sa iyo, sinasabi ko, 'Dapat mong malaman na sa araw na aalis ka at pupunta sa ibang lugar, tiyak na mamamatay ka?' Pagkatapos ay sinabi mo sa akin, 'Ang sinabi mo ay mabuti.'

43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the Lord, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?

Kaya bakit hindi mo iningatan ang iyong panunumpa kay Yahweh, at ang utos na binigay ko sa iyo?”

44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the Lord shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;

Sinabi rin ng hari kay Semei, “Alam mo sa iyong puso ang lahat ng kasamaan na ginawa mo sa aking ama na si David. Kaya ibabalik ni Yahweh ang kasamaan mo sa iyong sarili.

45 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord for ever.

Pero pagpapalain si Haring Solomon, at matatatag ang trono ni David sa harap ni Yahweh magpakailanman.”

46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.

Kaya inutusan ng hari si Benaias na anak ni Joiada na umalis at patayin si Semei. Kaya ang pamumuno ay matibay na naitatag sa kamay ni Solomon.
