< 1 Kings 1 >
1 Now, King David, was old, advanced in days, —and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.
Daawit Mootichi yeroo jaaree dulloometti yoo uffata itti tuulan illee dhagni isaa hin hoʼuuf ture.
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.
Kanaafuu tajaajiltoonni isaa akkana jedhaniin; “Durba qulqulluu mooticha tajaajiltuu fi kunuunsitu haa barbaannu. Isheenis gooftaa keenya mootichatti bira ciiftee isa haa hoʼiftu.”
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.
Isaanis biyya Israaʼel guutuu keessa durba miidhagduu barbaadanii intala Abiishagi jedhamtu kan gosa Suunam tokko argatanii mootichatti fidan.
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.
Intalattiin akka malee miidhagduu turte; isheenis mooticha kunuunsite; ni tajaajiltes; mootichi garuu ishee bira hin gaʼu ture.
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.
Yeroo sanatti Adooniyaan ilmi Hagiit kan isheen Daawitiif deesse, “Ani mootii nan taʼa” jedhee ol ol of qabe. Kanaafuu inni gaariiwwanii fi fardeen akkasumas namoota fuula isaa dura fiigan shantama qopheeffate.
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.
Abbaan isaa immoo, “Ati maaliif waan akkanaa goota?” jedhee gonkumaa isa ifatee hin beeku. Inni gurbaa akka malee miidhagaa kan Abesaaloomitti aanee dhalatee dha.
7 So then he had speech with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, —and they gave help, following Adonijah.
Adooniyaanis Yooʼaab ilma Zeruuyaatii fi Abiyaataar lubichaan mariʼate; isaanis isa deeggaran.
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.
Garuu Zaadoq lubichi, Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa, Naataan raajichi, Shimeʼiin, Reeʼii fi eegdonni Daawit filatamoon Adooniyaa wajjin hin turre.
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;
Adooniyaanis dhagaa Zoohelet isa naannoo Een Roogeelitti argamu biratti hoolaa, korma looniitii fi jabboota coccoomoo aarsaa dhiʼeesse. Innis obboloota isaa ilmaan mootichaa hunda, namoota Yihuudaa kanneen qondaaltota mootichaa taʼan hunda ni waame;
10 but, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.
garuu Naataan raajicha yookaan Benaayaa yookaan eegdota filatamoo yookaan obboleessa isaa Solomoonin hin waamne.
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?
Ergasii Naataan akkana jedhee Batisheebaa haadha Solomoon gaafate; “Ati akka Adooniyaan ilmi Hagiitii, utuu gooftaan keenya Daawit quba hin qabaatin mootii taʼe hin dhageenyee?
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.
Mee amma kottu akka ati itti lubbuu keetii fi lubbuu ilma kee Solomoon oolchuu dandeessu si gorsaa.
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?
Amma gara Daawit mootichaa dhaqiitii, ‘Yaa gooftaa koo mootii, ati, “Ilmi kee Solomoon anatti aanee dhugumaan mootii ni taʼa; teessoo koo irras ni taaʼa” jettee ana garbittii keetiif hin kakannee? Yoos Adooniyaan maaliif mootii taʼe?’ jedhiin.
14 Lo! while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I also, will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.
Anis utuma ati achitti mooticha wajjin dubbachaa jirtuu dhufee waan ati jettu sana siif mirkaneessa.”
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.
Kanaafuu Batisheebaan kaatee mootii dulloome sana arguuf gara kutaa Abiishagi intalli gosa Suunam sun itti isa kunuunsaa turteetti ol seente.
16 And Bath-sheba bowed, and did homage unto the king, —and the king said—What aileth thee?
Batisheebaan gad jettee fuula mootichaa duratti jilbeenfatte. Mootichis, “Ati maal barbaadda?” jedhee gaafate.
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.
Isheenis akkana jettee deebifteef; “Yaa gooftaa ko, ati mataan kee, ‘Ilmi kee Solomoon natti aanee mootii ni taʼa; teessoo koo irras ni taaʼa’ jettee maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiitiin ana garbittii keetiif kakattee turte.
18 But, now, lo! Adonijah, hath become king; now, therefore, my lord, O king, thou knowest it not:
Amma garuu Adooniyaan mootii taʼeera; ati gooftaan koo mootichis waan kana quba hin qabdu.
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.
Inni kunoo sangoota, jabboota coccoomoo fi hoolota baayʼee aarsaa dhiʼeessee ilmaan mootii hunda, Abiyaataar lubichaa fi Yooʼaab ajajaa loltootaa waameera; garuu garbicha kee Solomoonin hin waamne.
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.
Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, si booddeedhaan eenyu teessoo gooftaa koo mootichaa irra akka taaʼu sirraa beekuudhaaf iji Israaʼel hundi sirra jira.
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.
Yoo kanaa achii yeroo gooftaan koo mootichi abbootii isaa wajjin boqotutti anii fi ilmi koo Solomoon akka nama balleessaa qabuutti ilaalamna.”
22 And lo! while yet she was speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet, came in.
Utuma isheen amma illee mooticha wajjin dubbachaa jirtuu Naataan raajichi ni dhufe.
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.
Isaanis, “Naataan raajichi as jira” jedhanii mootichatti himan. Kanaafuu Naataan dhufee fuula mootichaa duratti gad jedhee harka fuudhe.
24 Then said Nathan—My lord, O king, hast, thou, said, Adonijah, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall sit upon my throne?
Naataanis akkana jedhe; “Yaa gooftaa koo mootii, ati, ‘Adooniyaan natti aanee mootii taʼa; teessoo koo irras ni taaʼa’ jetteertaa?
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!
Inni harʼa gad buʼee sangoota, jabboota coccoomoo fi hoolota baayʼee aarsaa dhiʼeesseera. Ilmaan mootichaa hunda, ajajjoota loltootaatii fi Abiyaataar lubicha waameera. Isaan amma iyyuu isa wajjin nyaachaa dhugaa, ‘Adooniyaan mootichi bara dheeraa haa jiraatu!’ jechaa jiru.
26 But, me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.
Garuu ana garbicha kee, Zaadoq lubicha, Benaayaa ilma Yehooyaadaatii fi garbicha kee Solomoonin hin waamne.
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?
Egaa kun waan gooftaan koo mootichi utuu isa booddeedhaan eenyu akka teessoo gooftaa koo mootichaa irra taaʼu garbicha isaa hin beeksisin hojjeteedhaa?”
28 Then responded King David, and said, Call me Bath-sheba. So she came in before the king, and stood before the king.
Daawit mootichi, “Mee Batisheebaa ol waamaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu isheen gara mootichaatti ol seentee fuula isaa dura dhaabatte.
29 And the king sware, and said, —By the life of Yahweh, who hath redeemed my life out of every strait,
Mootichis akkana jedhee kakateef; “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa isa rakkina hundumaa keessaa na baase sanaa,
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.
ani waan duraan maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliin siif kakadhe sana harʼa dhugumaan siif guuta. Ilmi kee Solomoon na booddeedhaan mootii taʼa; iddoo koos teessoo koo irra ni taaʼa.”
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!
Batisheebaanis addaan gad jettee harka fuutee fuula mootichaa duratti jilbeenfattee, “Gooftaan ko, Daawit mootichi bara baraan haa jiraatu!” jette.
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.
Daawit mootichis, “Mee Zaadoq lubicha, Naataan raajichaa fi Benaayaa ilma Yehooyaadaa as waamaa” jedhe. Yommuu isaan fuula mootichaa duratti dhiʼaatanitti,
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;
inni akkana isaaniin jedhe: “Garboota gooftaa keessanii of faana fudhadhaatii ilma koo Solomoonin gaangoo koo irra teessisaatii Giihoonitti gad buusaa.
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!
Achittis Zaadoq lubichii fi Naataan raajichi Israaʼeloota irratti mootii godhanii isa haa diban. Malakata afuufaatii, ‘Solomoon mootichi bara dheeraa haa jiraatu!’ jedhaa iyyaa.
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.
Isinis ergasii isa wajjin ol baʼuu qabdu; innis dhufee teessoo koo irra taaʼee iddoo koo buʼee mootii taʼuu qaba. Ani akka inni bulchaa taʼuuf Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa irratti isa muudeera.”
36 Then did Benaiah son of Jehoiada make response unto the king, and say—Amen! so, say Yahweh, God of my lord the king.
Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa akkana jedhee mootichaaf deebise; “Ameen! Waaqayyo Waaqni gooftaa koo mootichaa akkasuma haa jedhu.
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.
Waaqayyo akkuma gooftaa koo mooticha wajjin ture Solomoon wajjin haa taʼu; teessoo isaas teessoo gooftaa koo Daawit mootichaa caalaa haa jabeessu!”
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.
Kanaafuu Zaadoq lubichi, Naataan raajichi, Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa, Kereetonnii fi Pheletonni gad buʼanii gaangoo Daawit mootichaa irra Solomoon teessisanii Giihoonitti geessan.
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!
Zaadoq lubichi dunkaana qulqulluu keessaa gaanfa zayitii fuudhee Solomooniin dibe. Isaanis malakata afuufanii namoonni hundi, “Solomoon mootichi bara dheeraa haa jiraatu!” jedhanii iyyan.
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.
Namoonni hundi hamma sagalee sanaan lafti sochootutti faaggaa afuufaa gammachuu guddaadhaan isa faana ol baʼan.
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?
Adooniyaa fi keessummoonni isa wajjin turan akkuma nyaata isaanii fixataniin waan kana dhagaʼan. Yooʼaabis sagalee malakataa dhageenyaan, “Iyyi magaalaa keessaa kun hundi maalii?” jedhee gaafate.
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.
Utuma inni dubbachuutti jiruu, Yonaataan ilmi Abiyaataar lubichaa ni dhufe. Adooniyaanis, “Ol seeni. Jabaan akka keetii kun oduu gaarii fiduu qabaa” jedhe.
43 But Jonathan responded and said to Adonijah, —Of a truth, our lord, King David, hath made, Solomon, king.
Yonaataanis akkana jedhee deebise; “Akkas miti! Gooftaan keenya Daawit mootichi, Solomoonin mootii godheera.
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;
Mootichis Zaadoq lubicha, Naataan raajicha, Benaayaa ilma Yehooyaadaa, Kereetotaa fi Pheletota isa wajjin erge; isaanis gaangoo mootichaa irra isa teessisan;
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.
Zaadoq lubichii fi Naataan raajichi Giihoonitti mootii godhanii isa dibaniiru. Isaan gammachuudhaan achii ol baʼan; magaalattiinis iyya isaaniitiin sochoofamte; wacni isin dhageessan kunis kanaa dha.
46 Moreover also, Solomon hath taken his seat upon the throne of the kingdom.
Kana caalaa iyyuu Solomoon teessoo mootummaa irra taaʼeera.
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.
Qondaaltonni mootiis, ‘Waaqni kee maqaa kee caalaa maqaa Solomoon beekamaa godhee teessoo isaa illee teessoo kee caalaa haa guddisu!’ jedhanii gooftaa keenya Daawit mooticha eebbisuuf dhufaniiru. Mootichis siree isaa irratti gad jedhee sagade;
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.
innis, ‘Waaqayyo, Waaqni Israaʼel kan akka iji koo harʼa nama iddoo koo buʼee teessoo koo irra taaʼu argitu naa eeyyame sun haa eebbifamu’ jedhe.”
49 Then trembled and rose up, all Adonijah’s guests, —and departed, every man his own way.
Kana irrati keessummoonni Adooniyaa hundi rifatanii kaʼanii bibittinnaaʼan.
50 Adonijah also, feared because of Solomon, —and rose and went, and caught hold of the horns of the altar.
Adooniyaan garuu Solomoonin sodaatee dhaqee gaanfa iddoo aarsaa qabate.
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.
Solomoonittis akkana jedhamee himame; “Adooniyaan Solomoon mooticha sodaatee gaanfa iddoo aarsaa qabatee itti cicheera. Innis, ‘Solomoon mootichi akka goraadeedhaan garbicha isaa hin ajjeefne harʼa naaf haa kakatu’ jedhe.”
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.
Solomoonis, “Yoo inni amanamaa taʼuu isaa mirkaneesse rifeensa mataa isaa keessaa tokko iyyuu lafa hin buʼu; garuu yoo hamminni isa keessatti argame inni ni duʼa” jedhee deebise.
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.
Solomoon mootichis nama itti erge; isaanis iddoo aarsaa biraa gad isa fidan. Adooniyaanis dhufee fuula Solomoon mootichaa duratti gad jedhee harka fuudhe; Solomoonis, “Deemi, mana keetti gali” jedheen.
