< 1 Kings 1 >

1 And King David [is] old, entering into days, and they cover him with garments, and he has no heat,
Manghai David tah a kum khaw patong la om coeng tih himbai neh a khuk uh akhaw anih ham bae voel pawh.
2 and his servants say to him, “Let them seek [for] a young woman, a virgin, for my lord the king, and she has stood before the king, and is a companion to him, and has lain in your bosom, and my lord the king has heat.”
Te dongah anih te a sal rhoek loh, “Mamih kah boei manghai ham hula, oila pakhat tlap uh mai saeh. Te vaengah manghai mikhmuh ah mop uh saeh lamtah anih ham hmaiben la om saeh. Te daengah ni na rhang dongah yalh vetih ka boei manghai ham a bae pa eh,” a ti uh.
3 And they seek [for] a beautiful young woman in all the border of Israel, and find Abishag the Shunammite, and bring her to the king,
Te phoeiah hula sakthen te Israel khorhi khui boeih ah a tlap uh. Te vaengah Shunam nu Abishag te a hmuh uh tih anih te manghai taengla a khuen uh.
4 and the young woman [is] very, very beautiful, and she is a companion to the king, and serves him, and the king has not known her.
Te hula tah bahoeng a sakthen tih manghai ham hmaiben la om tih manghai te a khut. Tedae manghai loh anih te a hmaiben moenih.
5 And Adonijah son of Haggith is lifting himself up, saying, “I reign”; and he prepares for himself a chariot and horsemen, and fifty men running before him,
Te vaengah Haggith capa Adonijah te phuel uh tih, “Kai ka manghai pawn ni,” a ti. Te dongah amah hamla leng neh marhang caem neh a hmaiah aka yong la hlang sawmnga te a hmoel.
6 and his father has not grieved him [all] his days, saying, “Why have you done this?” And he also [is] of a very good form, and [his mother] bore him after Absalom.
Tedae a napa kah a tue vaengah, “Balae tih te tlam te na saii,” a ti nah dawk neh anih te a noih moenih. Anih khaw a suisak bahoeng then tih Absalom hnukah a sak.
7 And his words are with Joab son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, and they help after Adonijah;
Zeruiah capa Joab nen khaw, khosoih Abiathar nen khaw ol a khueh coeng dongah Adonijah te a bom rhoi.
8 and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty ones whom David has, have not been with Adonijah.
Tedae khosoih Zadok, Jehoiada capa Benaiah, tonghma Nathan, Shimei, Rei neh David taengkah hlangrhalh rhoek long tah Adonijah taengah om uh pawh.
9 And Adonijah sacrifices sheep and oxen and fatlings near the stone of Zoheleth that [is] by En-Rogel, and calls all his brothers, sons of the king, and for all the men of Judah, servants of the king;
Adonijah loh boiva neh saelhung a puetsuet te Enrogel kah, a kaep ah a ngawn. Te vaengah manghai koca khuikah a manuca boeih neh manghai kah sal rhoek, Judah hlang boeih te a khue.
10 and he has not called Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty ones, and his brother Solomon.
Tedae tonghma Nathan, Benaiah, a manuca Solomon neh a hlangrhalh rhoek, tah khue pawh.
11 And Nathan speaks to Bathsheba, mother of Solomon, saying, “Have you not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith has reigned, and our lord David has not known?
Te dongah Nathan loh Solomon manu Bathsheba te a voek tih, “Haggith capa Adonijah te manghai coeng tih mamih kah boeipa David loh a ming pawt te na yaak moenih a?
12 And now, come, please let me counsel you, and deliver your life and the life of your son Solomon;
Te dongah halo lamtah cilsuep neh namah kang uen mai pawn eh. Namah kah hinglu khaw, na capa Solomon kah hinglu khaw hlawt laeh.
13 go and enter in to King David, and you have said to him: Have you not, my lord, O king, sworn to your handmaid, saying, Surely your son Solomon reigns after me, and he sits on my throne? And why has Adonijah reigned?
Halo lamtah manghai David te paan laeh. Te vaengah amah te, 'Ka boei manghai namah loh na salnu taengah ol na caeng tih: “Na capa Solomon tah kamah hnukah manghai vetih ka ngolkhoel dongah ngol ni” rhep na ti moenih a? Balae tih Adonijah vik a manghai?' ti nah.
14 Behold, you are yet speaking there with the king, and I come in after you, and have completed your words.”
Manghai ham na thui pah li vaengah namah hnukah tloep ka kun saeh lamtah nang ol te cawt kan duel eh?,” a ti nah.
15 And Bathsheba comes in to the king, [into] the inner chamber, and the king [is] very aged, and Abishag the Shunammite is serving the king;
Te dongah Bathsheba loh manghai te imkhui la thaeng a paan. Te vaengah manghai tah bahoeng patong coeng tih Shunam nu Abishag tah manghai taengah a thohtat pah.
16 and Bathsheba bows and pays respect to the king, and the king says, “What do you [want]?”
Bathsheba te buluk tih manghai te a bawk vaengah tah manghai loh, “Nang te balae?” a ti nah.
17 And she says to him, “My lord, you have sworn by your God YHWH to your handmaid, [saying], Surely your son Solomon reigns after me, and he sits on my throne;
Te phoeiah anih te, “Ka boei namah long ni BOEIPA na Pathen te na toem na ngam. Na salnu taengah khaw, 'Na capa Solomon tah kamah hnukah manghai vetih ka ngolkhoel dongah ngol ni, ' na ti.
18 and now, behold, Adonijah has reigned, and now, my lord, O king, you have not known;
Tedae Adonijah a manghai coeng ke ka boei manghai long khaw na ming moenih a?
19 and he sacrifices ox, and fatling, and sheep in abundance, and calls for all the sons of the king, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab head of the host—and he has not called for your servant Solomon.
Vaito a puetsuet neh boiva muep a ngawn tih manghai koca boeih, khosoih Abiathar neh caempuei mangpa Joab te a khue. Tedae na sal Solomon tah a khue moenih.
20 And you, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel [are] on you, to declare to them who sit on the throne of my lord the king after him;
Ka boei manghai nang, Israel pum kah a mik he nang pum dongla a hoi coeng. Amah yuengla ka boei manghai kah ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol ham te amih taengah thui pah laeh.
21 and it has been, when my lord the king lies with his fathers, that I have been, I and my son Solomon—[reckoned] sinners.”
Ka boei manghai te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah kamah neh ka capa Solomon te hlangtholh la vik om ve,” a ti nah.
22 And behold, she is yet speaking with the king, and Nathan the prophet has come in;
Manghai taengah a thui li vaengah tonghma Nathan te pakcak ha pawk.
23 and they declare to the king, saying, “Behold, Nathan the prophet”; and he comes in before the king, and bows himself to the king, on his face to the earth.
Te dongah manghai taengla puen uh tih, “Tonghma Nathan ke,” a ti nauh. Te daengah manghai kah mikhmuh la kun tih manghai taengah a maelhmai neh diklai la a bakop pah.
24 And Nathan says, “My lord, O king, you have said, Adonijah reigns after me, and he sits on my throne;
Te phoeiah Nathan loh, “Ka boei manghai namah loh, 'Adonijah tah kamah yueng la manghai vetih, anih ni ka ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol eh?,’ na ti tang a?
25 for he has gone down today, and sacrifices ox, and fatling, and sheep, in abundance, and calls for all the sons of the king, and for the heads of the host, and for Abiathar the priest, and behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and they say, Let King Adonijah live!
Tihnin ah suntla mai tih vaito a puetsuet neh boiva khaw muep a ngawn. Manghai koca rhoek boeih neh caempuei mangpa khaw, khosoih Abiathar khaw a khue. Amih te amah neh a caak a ok uh tih, 'Manghai Adonijah tah hing pai saeh,” a ti uh ke.
26 But he has not called for me, your servant, and for Zadok the priest, and for Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and for your servant Solomon;
Tedae na sal kai kamah neh khosoih Zadok, Jehoiada capa Benaiah, na sal Solomon tah a khue moenih.
27 if this thing has been from my lord the king, then you have not caused your servant to know who sits on the throne of my lord the king after him.”
Tahae kah olka he ka boei manghai taeng lamkah ni a phuet atah na sal khaw na ming sak van kolla. A hnukah ka boei manghai kah ngolkhoel dongah ulae aka ngol eh?” a ti nah.
28 And King David answers and says, “Call for Bathsheba for me”; and she comes in before the king, and stands before the king.
Te phoeiah manghai David loh a doo tih, “Bathsheba te kamah taengla hang khue,” a ti nah. Te dongah manghai mikhmuh la ha moe tih manghai kah mikhmuh ah a pai pah.
29 And the king swears and says, “YHWH lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity;
Te vaengah manghai loh a toemngam tih, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah citcai cungkuem lamloh ka hinglu a lat coeng.
30 surely as I swore to you by YHWH, God of Israel, saying, Surely your son Solomon reigns after me, and he sits on my throne in my stead; surely so I do this day.”
Israel Pathen BOEIPA rhang neh nang taengah rhep ka toemngam bangla, “Na capa Solomon tah kai hnukah manghai ni,” rhep ka ti. Te dongah anih ni kai yueng la ka ngolkhoel dongah a ngol eh. Te tlam ni tahae khohnin ah khaw ka saii eh?,” a ti nah.
31 And Bathsheba bows—face to the earth—and pays respect to the king, and says, “Let my lord, King David, live for all time.”
Te vaengah Bathsheba tah a maelhmai neh diklai la buluk tih manghai taengah a bakop pah. Te phoeiah, “Ka boei manghai David tah kumhal duela hing pai saeh,” a ti nah.
32 And King David says, “Call for Zadok the priest, and for Nathan the prophet, and for Benaiah son of Jehoiada for me”; and they come in before the king.
Te phoeiah manghai David loh, “Khosoih Zadok, tonghma Nathan, Jehoiada capa Benaiah te kamah taengla hang khue lah,” a ti. Te dongah amih khaw manghai kah mikhmuh la ha pawk uh.
33 And the king says to them, “Take the servants of your lord with you, and you have caused my son Solomon to ride on my own mule, and caused him to go down to Gihon,
Te phoeiah manghai loh amih taengah, “Na boei kah sal rhoek te namah neh puei uh lamtah, kamah kah laak dongah ka capa Solomon te ngol sak. Te phoeiah anih te Gihon la suntlak puei.
34 and Zadok the priest has anointed him there—and Nathan the prophet—for king over Israel, and you have blown with a horn and said, Let King Solomon live;
Anih te khosoih Zadok neh tonghma Nathan loh Israel manghai la koelh saeh. Te vaengah tuki te ueng lamtah manghai Solomon tah hing pai saeh,'ti uh.
35 and you have come up after him, and he has come in and has sat on my throne, and he reigns in my stead, and I have appointed him to be leader over Israel, and over Judah.”
Te phoeiah anih te nang khuen tih ha pawk vaengah ka ngolkhoel dongah ngol saeh lamtah kamah yueng la manghai saeh. Anih te ni Israel so neh Judah soah rhaengsang la om ham ka uen,” a ti nah.
36 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada answers the king and says, “Amen! So does YHWH, God of my lord the king, say;
Jehoiada capa Benaiah loh manghai te a doo tih, “Amen, ka boei Pathen Yahovah long khaw, 'Manghai ni, 'ti pai saeh.
37 as YHWH has been with my lord the king, so is He with Solomon, and makes his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David.”
Ka boei manghai taengah Yahovah a om vanbangla Solomon taengah khaw om rhoe om van saeh. A ngolkhoel khaw ka boei manghai David kah ngolkhoel lakah rhoeng ngai saeh,” a ti.
38 And Zadok the priest goes down, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause Solomon to ride on the mule of King David, and cause him to go to Gihon,
Te phoeiah khosoih Zadok, tonghma Nathan, Jehoiada capa Benaiah, Kerethi, neh Phelethi te suntla uh. Solomon te manghai David kah laak dongah a ngol sak uh tih Gihon la cet uh.
39 and Zadok the priest takes the horn of oil out of the tent, and anoints Solomon, and they blow with a horn, and all the people say, “Let King Solomon live.”
Te phoeiah khosoih Zadok loh situi ki te dap khui lamloh a loh tih Solomon te a koelh. Te vaengah tuki te a ueng uh tih pilnam boeih loh, “Manghai Solomon tah hing pai saeh,” a ti uh.
40 And all the people come up after him, and the people are piping with pipes, and rejoicing [with] great joy, and the earth splits with their voice.
Pilnam khaw anih hnukah boeih cet uh. Te vaengah pilnam tah phitphoet aka tum neh kohoenah dongah bahoeng a kohoe uh. Amih ol dongah diklai khaw thulh uet.
41 And Adonijah hears, and all those called who [are] with him, and they have finished to eat, and Joab hears the noise of the horn and says, “Why [is] the noise of the city roaring?”
Adonijah neh a taengkah a khue rhoek boeih loh a yaak uh vaengah buh caak te pak a toeng uh. Tuki ol te Joab loh a yaak vaengah, “Khorha aka hut te ba ol lae?” a ti.
42 He is yet speaking, and behold, Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest has come in, and Adonijah says, “Come in, for you [are] a man of valor, and you bear good tidings.”
A thui li vaengah khosoih Abiathar capa Jonathan te pakcak ha pawk. Te dongah Adonijah loh, “Halo lah namah hlang tatthai long ni a then khaw na phong,” a ti nah.
43 And Jonathan answers and says to Adonijah, “Truly our lord King David has caused Solomon to reign,
Jonathan loh a doo tih Adonijah taengah, “Pawh, mamih kah boeipa manghai David loh Solomon te a manghai sak coeng.
44 and the king sends with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause him to ride on the king’s mule,
Anih te manghai loh khosoih Zadok, tonghma Nathan, Jehoiada capa Benaiah, Kerethi neh Phelethi te a tueih pah tih manghai kah laak dongah a ngol sakuh.
45 and they anoint him—Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet—for king in Gihon, and have come up there rejoicing, and the city is moved; it [is] the noise that you have heard.
Anih te khosoih Zadok neh tonghma Nathan loh Gihon ah manghai la a koelh coeng. Te lamloh kohoe la a caeh uh dongah khorha kah a pang a ngawl ol te ni na yaak uh.
46 And also Solomon has sat on the throne of the kingdom,
Tedae Solomon tah mangpa ngolkhoel dongah ngol bal pueng.
47 and also the servants of the king have come into bless our lord King David, saying, Your God makes the name of Solomon better than your name, and his throne greater than your throne; and the king bows himself on the bed,
Te vaengah manghai kah sal rhoek tah ka boei rhoek kah manghai David te uem ham ha pawk uh tih, 'Namah kah Pathen, Pathen amah loh nang ming lakah Solomon ming te thang sak saeh. A ngolkhoel te na ngolkhoel lakah pueh pah saeh,’ a ti uh vaengah manghai tah thingkong dongah bakop.
48 and also thus the king has said, Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, who has given [one] sitting on my throne today, and my eyes are seeing.”
Te vaengah manghai long khaw, “Ka ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol tih ka mik loh hmuh ham khohnin aka pae Israel Pathen BOEIPA tah a yoethen pai,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
49 And they tremble, and rise—all those called who [are] for Adonijah—and go, each on his way;
Te vaengah Adonijah neh a khue boeih khaw lakueng neh thoo uh tih hlang boeih loh amah longpuei la cet uh.
50 and Adonijah fears because of Solomon, and rises, and goes, and lays hold on the horns of the altar.
Adonijah tah a rhih coeng dongah Solomon mikhmuh lamloh thoo. Te phoeiah cet tih hmueihtuk ki te a tuuk.
51 And it is declared to Solomon, saying, “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon, and behold, he has laid hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon swear to me as today—he does not put his servant to death by the sword.”
Te dongah Solomon taengah a puen pah tih, “Adonijah loh manghai Solomon te a rhih coeng ke. Hmueihtuk ki te a tuuk tih, 'Tihnin kah bangla kai taengah toemngam saeh lamtah manghai Solomon loh a sal te cunghang neh duek sak pawt khaming,’ a ti ne,” a ti nah.
52 And Solomon says, “If he becomes a virtuous man—there does not fall [even one] hair of his to the earth, and if evil is found in him—then he has died.”
Te vaengah Solomon loh, “Tatthai ca la a om atah a sam te diklai la rhul mahpawh. Tedae a khuikah boethae te a tueng daengah ni a duek eh?,” a ti nah.
53 And King Solomon sends, and they bring him down from off the altar, and he comes in and bows himself to King Solomon, and Solomon says to him, “Go to your house.”
Manghai Solomon loh a tah daengah hmueihtuk dong lamloh amah rhum tih kun. Tedae manghai Solomon taengah a bakop vaengah tah anih te Solomon loh, “Namah im la cet,” a ti nah.
