1 Kings 1
1 And King David [is] old, entering into days, and they cover him with garments, and he has no heat,
Pea ko ʻeni kuo motuʻa ʻa Tevita pea lahi ʻa hono taʻu; pea naʻa nau ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi kofu, ka naʻe ʻikai ke ne māfana ai.
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.”
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Tuku ke nau kumi mai ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ha finemui ko e tāupoʻou: pea tuku ia ke ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, mo ne tauhi kiate ia, pea tuku ke ne tokoto ki ho fatafata, koeʻuhi ke māfana ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”
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,
Ko ia naʻa nau kumi ha fefine mui hoihoifua ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻa ʻApisaki ko e fefine Sunemi ʻonau ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi.
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.
Pea naʻe hoihoifua ʻaupito ʻae taʻahine, pea naʻa ne fai ʻofa ki he tuʻi, mo ne tauhi kiate ia: ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe he tuʻi.
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,
Pea naʻe toki fai fakafiefielahi ʻe ʻAtunaisa ko e tama ʻa Hakiti, ʻo ne pehē, Te u hoko au ko e tuʻi: pea naʻa ne teuteuʻi maʻana ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau heka hoosi, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko nimangofulu ke lele muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ʻao.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻikai fakamamahi ia ʻe heʻene tamai ʻi ha ʻaho, pe te ne pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke fai pehē ni ai?” Pea ko e tangata toulekeleka lelei ia, pea naʻe fanauʻi ia ki mui ʻia ʻApisalomi.
7 And his words are with Joab son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, and they help after Adonijah;
Pea naʻa ne alea mo Soape ko e tama ʻa Seluia, pea mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻa na muimui ʻia ʻAtunaisa ko hono tokoni.
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.
Ka ko Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Simi, mo Lei, pea mo e kau tangata mālohi ʻaia naʻe ʻia Tevita, naʻe ʻikai kau [ʻakinautolu ]kia ʻAtunaisa.
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;
Pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e fanga manu sino ʻe ʻAtunaisa ʻi he maka ko Soileti, ʻaia ʻoku vāofi mo Enilokeli, pea naʻa ne ui ki hono ngaahi tokoua ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, pea ki he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi:
10 and he has not called Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty ones, and his brother Solomon.
Ka ko Netane ko e palōfita mo Penaia, mo e kau tangata mālohi, pea mo Solomone ko hono tokoua, naʻe ʻikai te ne ui.
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?
Ko ia naʻe lea ai ʻa Netane kia Patisepa ko e faʻē ʻa Solomone, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai kuo ke fanongo kuo pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa ko e tama ʻa Hakiti, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe hota ʻeiki ko Tevita?
12 And now, come, please let me counsel you, and deliver your life and the life of your son Solomon;
Ko ia ke ke haʻu, pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke u enginakiʻi koe, koeʻuhi ke ke fakamoʻui ʻa hoʻo moʻui ʻaʻau, pea mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo tama ko Solomone.
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?
ʻAlu pea ke hoko atu kia Tevita ko e tuʻi, pea ke lea pehē kiate ia, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻikai naʻa ke fuakava ki hoʻo kaunanga, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻe hoko ʻa Solomone ko hoʻo tama ke pule ki mui ʻiate au, pea te ne nofo ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi? Pea ka kuo pehē ko e hā kuo pule ai ʻa ʻAtunaisa?’”
14 Behold, you are yet speaking there with the king, and I come in after you, and have completed your words.”
Pea vakai, lolotonga ʻa hoʻo alea ai mo e tuʻi, te u muimui atu au ʻiate koe foki mo fakamoʻoni ʻa hoʻo ngaahi lea.
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;
Pea naʻe hū atu ʻa Patisepa ki he tuʻi ki hono potu fale: pea naʻe motuʻa ʻaupito ʻae tuʻi; pea naʻe tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻa ʻApisaki ko e fefine Sunemi.
16 and Bathsheba bows and pays respect to the king, and the king says, “What do you [want]?”
Pea naʻe punou ʻa Patisepa, mo ne fai fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tuʻi. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, Ko e hā ho loto?
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;
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, naʻa ke fuakava ʻia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ki hoʻo kaunanga, [ʻo pehē], ‘Ko e moʻoni ko Solomone ko hoʻo tama ʻe hoko mo au ki he pule, pea te ne ʻafio ʻi hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi.’
18 and now, behold, Adonijah has reigned, and now, my lord, O king, you have not known;
Pea vakai eni, kuo pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa; pea ko eni, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ia:
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.
Pea kuo ne tāmateʻi ʻae fanga pulu, mo e fanga manu sino, mo e fanga sipi ʻo lahi ʻaupito, pea kuo ne talaki ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi, mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Soape ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau tau: ka kuo ʻikai te ne ui ʻa Solomone ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
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;
Pea ko koe, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, kuo hanga mai kiate koe ʻae mata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke ke fakahā kiate kinautolu pe ko hai ia ʻe hoko mo koe ke nofo ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.
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.”
He ka ʻikai fai eni ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka tō ʻo mohe ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi fakataha mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, ʻe lau au mo ʻeku tama ko Solomone ko e ongo fai hala.”
22 And behold, she is yet speaking with the king, and Nathan the prophet has come in;
Pea vakai, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei lea mo e tuʻi, naʻe hū atu foki ʻa Netane ko e palōfita.
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.
Pea naʻa nau fakahā ange ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Vakai ko eni ʻa Netane ko e palōfita. Pea ʻi heʻene hū mai ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, naʻa ne punou hifo ia mo hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
24 And Nathan says, “My lord, O king, you have said, Adonijah reigns after me, and he sits on my throne;
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Netane, ʻE tuʻi, ko hoku ʻeiki, kuo ke pehē koā, ʻE pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa ki mui ʻiate au, pea ʻe nofo ia ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi?
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!
He kuo ʻalu hifo ia he ʻaho ni, pea kuo ne tāmateʻi ʻae fanga pulu mo e fanga manu sino, mo e fanga sipi ʻo lahi ʻaupito, pea kuo ne talaki ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, mo e houʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, pea mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki; pea vakai, ʻoku nau kai mo inu ʻi hono ʻao, ʻonau pehē, ‘Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko ʻAtunaisa.’
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;
Ka ko au, ʻio, ko au ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, mo Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, pea mo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Solomone, kuo ʻikai te ne ui [ʻakimautolu].
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.”
Kuo fai ʻae meʻa ni ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, pea kuo ʻikai ke ke fakahā mai ia ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pe ko hai ia ʻe nofo ki mui ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi?”
28 And King David answers and says, “Call for Bathsheba for me”; and she comes in before the king, and stands before the king.
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita ʻo ne pehē, “Ui mai ʻa Patisepa.” Pea naʻa na haʻu ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
29 And the king swears and says, “YHWH lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity;
Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “ʻO hangē ʻoku moʻui moʻoni ʻa Sihova, ʻaia kuo huhuʻi ʻa hoku laumālie mei he mamahi kotoa pē,
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.”
ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fuakava kiate koe ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ko Solomone ko hoʻo tama ʻe pule ki mui ʻiate au, pea ʻe nofo ia ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi ko hoku fetongi;’ te u fai pehē moʻoni kiate koe he ʻaho ni.”
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.”
Pea naʻe toki punou ʻa Patisepa mo hono mata ki he kelekele, mo ne fai fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOfa ke moʻui ʻa Tevita ko hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo taʻengata.”
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita, Ui mai ʻa Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata. Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
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,
Naʻe pehē foki ʻe he tuʻi kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻave mo kimoutolu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa homou ʻeiki, pea fakaheka ʻa Solomone ko hoku foha ki heʻeku miuli ʻaʻaku, pea ʻohifo ia ki Kihoni:
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;
Pea tuku ke pani ia ʻaki ʻae lolo ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki mo Netane ko e palōfita, ke ne tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli: pea mou ifi ʻaki ʻae meʻalea, mo pehē, ‘Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko Solomone.’
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.”
Pea hili ia te mou muimui mai kiate ia, koeʻuhi ke ne haʻu ʻo heka ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi: he te ne hoko ia ko e tuʻi, ko hoku fetongi: pea kuo u fakanofo ia ke ne pule ki ʻIsileli pea mo Siuta.”
36 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada answers the king and says, “Amen! So does YHWH, God of my lord the king, say;
Pea naʻe tali ʻae lea ʻae tuʻi ʻe Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻEmeni: pea ke pehē foki ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.
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.”
ʻO hangē ko e ʻi hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻa Sihova, ke pehē foki ʻa ʻene kau kia Solomone, mo ne fakalahi ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke lahi hake ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ko Tevita.”
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,
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hifo ai ʻa Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, pea mo e kakai Keliti mo e kakai Peleti, pea naʻa nau fakaheka ʻa Solomone ki he miuli ʻae tuʻi ko Tevita, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki Kihoni.
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.”
Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻae hina lolo mei he fale fehikitaki ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, pea ne pani ʻaki ʻa Solomone. Pea naʻa nau ifi ʻae meʻalea: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, “Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko Solomone.”
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.
Pea naʻe muimui hake kiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea naʻe ifi ʻe he kakai ʻenau ngaahi fafangu, pea naʻa nau fiefia ʻi he fiefia lahi ʻaupito, ko ia naʻe mafahi ʻae fonua ʻi heʻenau longoaʻa.
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?”
Pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa ʻAtunaisa pea mo e kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo feʻunga mo e fakaʻosi ʻenau kai. Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Soape ki he ifi ʻae meʻalea, naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku longoaʻa ai ʻae kolo mo maveuveu?”
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.”
Pea ʻiloange, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei lea, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sonatane ko e foha ʻo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAtunaisa kiate ia, “Hū mai; he ko e tangata toʻa koe pea ʻoku ke ʻomi ha ongoongolelei.”
43 And Jonathan answers and says to Adonijah, “Truly our lord King David has caused Solomon to reign,
Pea naʻe lea ʻo pehēange ʻe Sonatane kia ʻAtunaisa, “Ko e moʻoni kuo fakanofo ʻe Tevita ʻa Solomone ke ne tuʻi.
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,
Pea kuo fekau atu ia mo Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, mo e kakai Keliti, mo e kakai Peleti, pea kuo nau fakaheka ia ki he miuli ʻae tuʻi:
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.
Pea kuo pani ʻaki ia ʻae lolo ʻi Kilioni ke hoko ko e tuʻi, ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki mo Netane ko e palōfita: pea kuo nau ʻohake mei ai mo e fiefia, ko ia naʻe toe mavava ai ʻae kolo. Ko e longoaʻa eni ʻaia kuo mou fanongo ki ai.
46 And also Solomon has sat on the throne of the kingdom,
Pea kuo nofo foki ʻa Solomone ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻoe puleʻanga.
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,
Pea naʻe haʻu foki ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi ke tāpuakiʻi ʻa hotau ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ko Tevita, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae hingoa ʻo Solomone ke lelei hake ʻi ho hingoa ʻoʻou, pea ne ngaohi ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke lahi hake ʻi ho nofoʻanga ʻoʻou.’ Pea naʻe punou hifo ʻae tuʻi ʻi hono mohenga.
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.”
Pea naʻe lea pehē foki ʻe he tuʻi, ‘Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ne foaki mai ha tokotaha ke nofo ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi he ʻaho ni, ka kuo sio ki ai ʻa hoku mata.’”
49 And they tremble, and rise—all those called who [are] for Adonijah—and go, each on his way;
Pea naʻe manavahē ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻia ʻAtunaisa, pea naʻa nau tutuʻu hake, pea ʻalu taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono hala.
50 and Adonijah fears because of Solomon, and rises, and goes, and lays hold on the horns of the altar.
Pea naʻe manavahē ʻa ʻAtunaisa koeʻuhi ko Solomone, pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake, mo ne ʻalu ʻo ne puke ki he nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga.
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.”
Pea naʻe tala kia Solomone, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻoku manavahē ʻa ʻAtunaisa ki he tuʻi ko Solomone: he vakai, kuo ne puke atu ki he nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Tuku ke fuakava ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kiate au he ʻaho ni, ʻe ʻikai te ne tāmateʻi ʻa ʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae heletā.”
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.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solomone, “Kapau te ne fai ʻo ngali mo ha tangata lelei, ʻe ʻikai siʻi tō ki he kelekele hano tuʻoni louʻulu ʻe taha: pea kapau ʻe ʻilo ha kovi ʻiate ia, ko e moʻoni te ne mate.”
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.”
Ko ia naʻe fekau atu ʻe Solomone, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia mei he feilaulauʻanga. Pea naʻa ne haʻu ʻo ne punou hifo ia ki he tuʻi ko Solomone: pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solomone kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe ki ho fale.”
