1 Kings 1
1 Now, King David, was old, advanced in days, —and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.
Na kua koroheketia a Kingi Rawiri, kua maha ona ra; a hipokina ana ia e ratou ki te kakahu; heoi kihai i mahana.
2 Wherefore his servants said unto him—Let there be sought for my lord the king, a young woman—a virgin, so shall she stand before the king, that she may become his companion, —and she shall lie in thy bosom, and my lord the king shall get, heat.
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 So they sought a fair young woman, throughout all the bounds of Israel, —and found Abishag, the Shunammite, and brought her in, unto 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 young woman, was exceeding fair, —so she became unto the king a companion, and ministered unto him, but, the king, knew her not.
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 And, Adonijah son of Haggith, exalted himself, saying—I, will be king. Therefore prepared he for himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to 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 Now his father had not displeased him all his days, by saying—Why, thus, hast thou done? Moreover also, he, was of exceeding handsome appearance, and, him, did his mother bear, after Absolom.
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 So then he had speech with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, —and they gave help, following 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 But, Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to 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 And Adonijah sacrificed sheep and oxen and heifers, near the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel, —and invited all his brethren, sons of the king, and all the men of Judah, 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, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.
Ko Natana matakite ia, ko Penaia, ko nga tangata nunui, me tona teina, me Horomona, kihai i karangatia e ia.
11 Then spake Nathan unto Bath-sheba mother of Solomon, saying—Hast thou not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith hath become king, and, our lord David, knoweth it not?
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, therefore, come; let me give thee counsel, I pray thee, —so shalt thou rescue thine own life, and the life of thy 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 get thee in unto King David, and thou shalt say unto him—Didst not, thou thyself, my lord O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying—Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne? Why, then, hath, Adonijah, become king?
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 Lo! while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I also, will come in after thee, and confirm thy 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 So Bath-sheba went in unto the king, into the chamber, now, the king, was very old, —and Abishag the Shunammite, was ministering unto the king.
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 And Bath-sheba bowed, and did homage unto the king, —and the king said—What aileth thee?
Na ka tuohu a Patehepa, ka piko ki te kingi, a ka mea te kingi, He aha tau?
17 And she said unto him—My lord, thou thyself, didst swear by Yahweh thy God, unto thy handmaid, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, —yea, he, 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 But, now, lo! Adonijah, hath become king; now, therefore, my lord, O king, thou knowest it not:
Na, inaianei, kua kingi a Aronia; a kahore koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi, i te mohio:
19 and he hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab general of the army, —but, Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.
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 Thou, therefore, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel, are upon thee, —to tell them, who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king, after him.
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 it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, then shall I and my son Solomon be counted, offenders.
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 lo! while yet she was speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet, came in.
Na, i a ia ano e korero ana ki te kingi, ka tomo mai a Natana poropiti.
23 So they told the king, saying, Lo! Nathan the prophet! And, when he had come in before the king, he bowed himself down to the king with his face to 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 Then said Nathan—My lord, O king, hast, thou, said, Adonijah, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall 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 he hath gone down to-day, and hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and the generals of the army, and Abiathar the priest, and, there they are—eating and drinking before him, —and they have said—Long live King Adonijah!
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, me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.
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 If, of my lord the king, this thing had been brought to pass, then wouldest thou not have made known unto thy servant, who should sit 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 Then responded King David, and said, Call me Bath-sheba. So she came in before the king, and stood before the king.
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 And the king sware, and said, —By the life of Yahweh, who hath redeemed my life out of every strait,
Na ko te oatitanga a te kingi, ka mea, E ora ana a Ihowa i whakaora nei i ahau i nga mate katoa,
30 even as I sware unto thee by Yahweh, God of Israel, saying, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne, in my stead, even so, will 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 Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the ground, and did homage unto the king, —and said—Let my lord, King David, live to times age-abiding!
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 Then said King David—Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada. And they came in 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 Then said the king unto them—Take ye with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon the mule which pertaineth unto myself, —and bring him down unto 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 then shall Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel, —and ye shall blow with the horn, and say—Long live King Solomon!
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 Then shall ye come up after him, and he shall enter, and sit upon my throne, yea, he, shall become king in my stead; even, him, have I charged to become leader, 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 Then did Benaiah son of Jehoiada make response unto the king, and say—Amen! so, say Yahweh, 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 As Yahweh hath been with my lord the king, so, let him he with Solomon, —and make his throne greater 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 So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon the mule of King David, —and they escorted 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 Then took Zadok the priest, the horn of oil out of the Tent, and anointed Solomon, —and they blew with a [ram’s] horn, and all the people said, Long live King Solomon!
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 all the people came up after him, the people themselves also, playing with flutes, and rejoicing with great joy, —so that the earth rent with the sound 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 And Adonijah, and all the guests who were with him, heard it, just as, they, had made an end of eating, —and, when Joab heard the sound of a horn, he said—Wherefore the noise of the city, in tumult?
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 yet he was speaking, lo! Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest, came in, —and Adonijah said—Come in, for, a worthy man, thou art, and, good tidings, dost thou bring.
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 But Jonathan responded and said to Adonijah, —Of a truth, our lord, King David, hath made, Solomon, 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 the king hath sent with him—Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, —and they have caused him to ride upon 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, in Gihon, and they went up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again, —That, is the noise ye 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 Moreover also, Solomon hath taken his seat upon the throne of the kingdom.
A ko Horomona hoki tenei te noho mai nei i runga i te torona o te kingitanga.
47 Moreover also, the servants of the king have been in, to bless our lord King David, saying—Thy God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne, —And the king bowed himself upon 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 Moreover also, thus and thus, hath said the king, —Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who hath given, to-day, one to sit upon my throne, mine own eyes also beholding 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 Then trembled and rose up, all Adonijah’s guests, —and departed, every man his own way.
Na ka pawera nga manuhiri a Aronia, whakatika ana, a haere ana i tona ara, i tona ara.
50 Adonijah also, feared because of Solomon, —and rose and went, and caught hold of the horns 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 it was told Solomon, saying, Lo! Adonijah, feareth King Solomon, —lo! therefore, he hath laid hold of the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon swear unto me at once that he will not put his servant to death 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 Then said Solomon, If he will be a man of worth, there shall not one hair of him fall to the earth, —but, if mischief be found in him, then shall he 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 So King Solomon sent, and brought him down from the altar, and he came in, and bowed himself down to King Solomon, —and Solomon said unto him—Go to thine 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.
