1 Kings 2

1 And, when the days of David drew near that he must die, 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, am going the way of all the earth, —thou must be strong, therefore, and show thyself a man;

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

3 and keep the observances of Yahweh thy God, by walking in his ways, by keeping his statutes, his commandments, and his regulations and his testimonies, as written in the law of Moses, —to the end 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 to the end that Yahweh may establish his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy sons will take heed to their way, by walking before me, in truth, with all their heart, and with all their soul, (then, said he) there shall not be cut off to thee a man, from off 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 also, thou, knowest what Joab son of Zeruiah did to me, how he dealt with two generals of the armies of Israel—with Abner son of Ner, and with Amasa son of Jether—both of whom he slew, shedding the blood of war in peace, —and putting the blood of war upon his girdle that was on his loins, and upon his sandals, 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 Thou, therefore, must do according to thy wisdom, —but will not let his grey hair go down in peace, to hades. (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, with the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, thou wilt deal in lovingkindness, and they will be among them who eat at thy table, —for, so, drew they near unto me, when I fled from Absolom 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 Lo! also, there is with thee—Shimei son of Gera a Benjamite, of Behurim, well, he, it was who cursed me with a grievous curse; on the day I journeyed to Mahanaim, —but he, came down to meet me, at the Jordan, and so I sware to him by Yahweh, 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 do not hold him guiltless, for, a wise man, thou art, and wilt know how thou oughtest to deal with him, and wilt suffer his grey hairs to go down with blood, to hades. (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 then 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 Now, the days that David reigned over Israel, were forty years, —in Hebron, reigned he seven years, and, in Jerusalem, reigned he thirty and three years.

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 But, when, Solomon, took his seat upon the throne of David his father, then was the kingdom firmly established.

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

13 And Adonijah son of Haggith came in unto Bath-sheba, mother of Solomon: And she said—Peaceably, comest thou? 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 Then said he—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, mine, was the kingdom, and, on me, had all Israel set their faces, that I should become king, —howbeit the kingdom, hath turned about, and become my brother’s, for, from Yahweh, became it, his.

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 Now, therefore, one request, have I to ask of thee, do not turn away my face.

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

17 And she said unto him—Say on. And he said—Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, for he will not turn away thy face, —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: Good! I myself, will speak for thee, unto the king.

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

19 So Bath-sheba went in unto King Solomon, to speak to him for Adonijah, —and the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself down to her, and sat down upon his throne, and caused a throne to be set for the mother of the king, 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 said she—One small request, am I asking of thee, do not turn away my face. And the king said to her—Ask on, my mother, for I will not turn away thy face.

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 Then answered King Solomon, and said to his mother—Wherefore, then, art thou asking Abishag the Shunammite, for Adonijah? ask, then, for him the kingdom, because he is mine elder brother, —even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab, 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 swore King Solomon by Yahweh, saying, —So, let God do to me, and, so, let him add, if, at the cost of his life, Adonijah hath not spoken this word.

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, by the life of Yahweh, who hath established me, and seated me upon the throne of David my father, and who hath made for me a household, as he had spoken, surely, to-day, shall Adonijah be put to death!

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 So King Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah 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 Also, unto Abiathar the priest, said the king—To Anathoth, get thee unto thine own fields, for, death-doomed, thou art, —but, this day, will I not put thee to death, because thou didst bear the ark of My Lord, Yahweh, before David my father, and because thou wast 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 Yahweh, —to fulfil the word of Yahweh which he spake concerning the household 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 And, the report, came unto Joab, for, Joab, had inclined after Adonijah, although, after Solomon, he had not inclined, —so then Joab fled into the Tent of Yahweh, and laid hold of 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—Joab hath fled into the Tent of Yahweh, and, there he is, beside the altar. So Solomon sent Benaiah 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 into the Tent of Yahweh, and said unto him—Thus, saith the king, Come forth! And he said—Nay! but, here, will I die! So Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus, spake 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 to him—Do as he hath spoken, fall, then, upon him, and bury him, —and so put away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from off me, and from off 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 thus will Yahweh bring back his blood upon his own head, in that he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing it, —even Abner son of Ner, general of the army of Israel, and Amasa son of Jether, general of the army 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 thus shall their blood come back upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed unto times age-abiding, —but, David and his seed, and his house, and his throne, shall have peace, unto times age-abiding, from Yahweh.

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 son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and put him to death, —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 son of Jehoiada, in his stead, over the army, —and, Zadok the priest, did the king put in the stead 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 to him—Build thee a house, in Jerusalem, so shalt thou dwell there, —and shalt not go forth from thence, hither or thither;

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 but it shall be that, on the day thou goest forth, and passest over the Kidron ravine, know, that thou shalt, 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 to the king—Good, is the word, as my lord the king hath spoken, 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 But it came to pass, at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei fled unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath, —and they told Shimei, saying—Lo! thy servants are 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 So Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath, unto Achish, to seek his servants—and Shimei went and brought in 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—Shimei hath been out of Jerusalem to Gath, and returned.

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

42 Then sent the king and called for Shimei, and said unto him—Did I not put thee on oath by Yahweh, and adjure thee, saying—On the day thou goest forth and takest thy journey hither or thither, know, that thou shalt, die. Then saidst thou unto me—Good, is the word I have heard.

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 Yahweh, —and the charge which I laid upon thee?

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

44 Then said the king unto Shimei—Thou, knowest all the wickedness which thy heart is privy to, which thou didst unto David my father, —therefore shall Yahweh bring back 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 But, King Solomon, shall be blessed, —and, the throne of David, shall be established before Yahweh, unto times age-abiding.

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

46 So the king charged Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he 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.
