1 Kings 2
1 When David [knew that he] was about to die, he gave these final instructions to his son Solomon:
Da: ibidi da bogomu galu, e da ea mano Soloumane ema misa: ne sia: i. E da ema dagomusa: fada: i sia: su amane sia: i,
2 “I am about to die [EUP], like everyone else on earth does. Be courageous and conduct yourself as an adult should.
“Na bogomu eso da doaga: i. Di mae beda: ne, gasa fili aligima.
3 Do what Yahweh our God tells you to do. Conduct yourself as he wants you to do. Obey all of his laws and commands and precepts and instructions that are written in the laws that Moses [gave us]. Do this in order that you will prosper in all that you do and wherever you go.
Amola dia Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: be amo defele hamoma. Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i Mousese ea Sema Buga ganodini dedei, amo defele hamoma. Di da amane hamosea, di da habodili ahoasea amola di adi hamosea, hahawane ba: mu.
4 If you continually do that, Yahweh will do what he promised me: He said, ‘If your descendants do what I tell them to do, and faithfully obey my commands with all their inner beings, they will always be [LIT] the ones who will rule [MTY] Israel.’
Hina Gode da nama amane ilegele sia: i, ‘Digaga fi da Na sia: amo mae fisili dafawane noga: le nabawane hamosea, ilia da Isala: ili fi ouligilalumu. Di da Ea sia: nabawane hamosea, Hina Gode da amo ilegele sia: i dafawane dima hamomu.
5 “There is something else [that I want you to do]. You know what Joab did to me. He killed my two army commanders, Abner and Amasa. He murdered them violently [MTY] during a time of peace, pretending that it was a time of war. Those two men (were innocent/had not done what was wrong). But Joab [killed them and] their blood to stain his belt and his sandals.
Eno adomu gala. Dia dawa: amo Youa: be da Isala: ili dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu dunu aduna, (Ne ea mano A: bena amola Yidie ea mano Ama: isa) medole legeiba: le, na hou wadela: lesi. Ela da gegesu esoga dunu eno ha lai dunu medole legei. Be Youa: be da olofosu esoga amo dunu elama dabe i. E da wadela: i hame hamosu dunu medole legei. Be waha da amo se nabasu na fawane da naba.
6 Because you are wise, do to him what you think is best [for you to do], but do not allow him to become old [MTY] and then die [IDM] peacefully. (Sheol h7585)
Dia hamomu amo di dawa: Amo dunu medole legema: ma. (Sheol h7585)
7 “But be kind to the sons of Barzillai, the man from [the] Gilead [region], and be sure that they always have enough food to eat [MTY]. Do that because Barzillai helped me when I was running away from your older brother Absalom.
Be Gilia: de dunu Basila: iai egefelali ilima asigima, amola ili ouligima. Bai na da diaola A: basalomema hobeabeba: le, ilia da nama asigi galu.
8 Also, [you remember] Gera’s son Shimei from Bahurim [town] in the area where the descendants of Benjamin live. [You know what he did to me]. He cursed me terribly on the day I [left Jerusalem and] went to Mahanaim [town]. But when he later came down to see me at the Jordan [River], I solemnly promised, while Yahweh listened [MTY], that I would not cause him to be executed.
Dunu eno dawa: ma-amo Simiai (Gila ea mano, e da Bahiulimi moilai Bediamini soge ganodini esalu). Na da Ma: ihana: ime sogega ahoanoba, e da nama gasa bagadewane gagabui aligima: ne ilegei. Be na da buhagilaloba, e da Yodane Hano amogai na gousa: i. Amola na da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le, e hame medole legemu, amane dafawane ilegele sia: i.
9 But now you must [LIT] surely punish him. You are a wise man, so you will know what you should do to him. He is an old man [MTY], but be sure that he [loses/sheds] a lot of blood when you kill him [MTY].” (Sheol h7585)
Be di da ema dawama: ne se dabe ima. Dia hamomu amo di dawa: Amo dunu medole legema: ne sia: ma.” (Sheol h7585)
10 Then David died [EUP] and was buried in [that part of Jerusalem which was called] ‘The City of David’.
Da: ibidi da bogole, ilia da ea da: i hodo Da: ibidi Moilai Bai Bagade ganodini uli dogonesi.
11 David had been the king of Israel for 40 years: He ruled for seven years in Hebron and for 33 years in Jerusalem.
E da Isala: ili soge ode 40 agoane ouligisu hamoi. Amo ouligisu ganodini, e da ode fesuale agoane Hibalone moilai bai bagadega esala ouligilalu, amola ode 33 agoane Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esala ouligisu hamoi.
12 Solomon became the ruler/king [MTY] to take the place of his father David and took control of all of the kingdom.
Soloumane da eda Da: ibidi ea bagia hina bagade hou lai. Ea ouligilalusu da gasa bagade ba: i.
13 [One day] Adonijah came to Solomon’s mother Bathsheba. She said to him, “Have you come because you want things to go well?” He replied, “Yes.”
Amalalu, A:dounaidia (ea ame da Ha: gide) da Ba: desiba (Soloumane eme) ema asi. Ba: desiba da ema amane sia: i, “Di da olofolewane nama misibala: ?” E bu adole i, “Ma! Na da olofoiwane misi.”
14 But then he said, “I have something to ask you to do.” She said, “Tell me [what you want me to do].”
Amalalu, e da amane sisa: asi, “Na da dima adole ba: mu gala.” Ba: desiba da amane adole ba: i, “Di da adi sia: ma: bela: ?”
15 He said, “You know that all the Israeli people expected me to be their king [because I am David’s oldest surviving son]. But that did not happen. Instead, my [younger] brother became king, because that is what Yahweh wanted.
E bu adole i, “Di dawa: Na da hina bagade hou lamu da defea galu. Amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da na Isala: ili fi ouligima: ne dawa: i galu. Be hou eno da doaga: i. Amola Hina Gode Ea hanaiba: le, naeya da hina bagade hou lai dagoi.
16 Now I have one thing that I ask you to do. Please do not refuse to do it.” She replied, “Tell me [what you want me to do].”
Amola wali na da adole ba: su afae fawane gala. Na hanai logo mae hedofama.” Ba: desiba da bu adole ba: i, “Dia hanai da adila: ?”
17 He said, “Please ask King Solomon to give to me Abishag, the woman from Shunem [town], to be my wife. [I am sure that] he will not refuse.”
E bu adole i, “Hina bagade Soloumanema amane adole ba: ma (e da dia adole ba: mu hame hedofamu) ‘Siuneme a: fini A: bisia: ge amo A: dounaidia lama: ne ima.’”
18 Bathsheba replied, “Okay, I will speak to the king for you.”
Ba: desiba da amane sia: i, “Defeawane! Na da hina bagadema dia hanai amo adosimu.”
19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon, to tell him what Adonijah wanted. The king got up [from his throne] and went to greet her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne again and asked someone to bring a chair for her. So she sat down at the king’s right side.
Amaiba: le, Ba: desiba da A: dounaidia ea adole ba: su adosimusa: , hina bagadema asi. Hina bagade da ea ame yosia: musa: , wa: legadole begudui. Amalalu, e da ea fisuga fili, amola e da fisu eno gaguli misa: ne sia: i. Amoga Ba: desiba da ea lobodafa la: ididili fi.
20 Then she said, “I have one small thing which I want you to do; please do not say that you will not do it.” The king replied, “Mother, what do you want? I will not refuse you.”
E amane sia: i, “Na da dima adole ba: su fonobahadi gala. Na hanai logo mae hedofama.” Soloumane da amane adole ba: i, “Defea, ame! Dia hanai da adila: ? Na da dia hanai hame hihimu.”
21 She said, “Allow Abishag to be given to your [older] brother Adonijah to be his wife.”
E bu adole i, “A: fini A: bisia: ge amo dia ola A: dounaidia lama: ne ema ima.”
22 The king replied [angrily], “What? Are you requesting me to give Abishag to Adonijah? [Does he want me] to allow him to rule the kingdom, too? Because he is my older brother, [does he think that he should be the king]? Does he think that Abiathar should be the priest [instead of Zadok], and that Joab [should be the army commander instead of Benaiah] because they supported him [when he tried to become the king]?”
Hina bagade da amane sia: i, “Dia abuliba: le A: bisia: ge amo ema ima: ne sia: sala: ? Di da agoane sia: beba: le, di da defele na hina bagade hou ema ima: ne sia: sa. Bai e da naola. Amola gobele salasu dunu A: baia: da amola Youa: be da e fuligala: sa.”
23 Then Solomon solemnly promised, requesting Yahweh to listen, “I wish God would strike me and kill me if I do not cause Adonijah to be executed for requesting this!
Amalalu, Soloumane da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le dafawane ilegele sia: i, “A: dounaidia da amo adole ba: beba: le, na da e dabema: ne medole legema: ne sia: sa. Na da amo hame hamosea, Gode da na medole legemu da defea.
24 Yahweh has appointed me to be the king and placed me here to rule [MTY] as my father David did. He has promised that my descendants [MTY] will be the kings of Israel. So just as surely as Yahweh lives, I solemnly promise that Adonijah will be executed today!”
Hina Gode da hamobeba: le, na da gasa fili, na ada Da: ibidi ea hina bagade fisu amoga hahawane ouligilala. Gode da Ea ilegele sia: i hame gogolei. E da Isala: ili ouligisu hou, na amola nagaga fi ninima i dagoi. Na da Hina Gode Esala amo Ea Dioba: le dafawane ilegele sia: sa. Wali esodafa, A:dounaidia da medole legei dagoi ba: mu.”
25 So King Solomon gave orders to Benaiah to [go and] kill Adonijah, and Benaiah did that.
Amaiba: le, hina bagade Soloumane da sia: beba: le, Bina: ia da gadili asili, A:dounaidia medole legei.
26 Then Solomon said to Abiathar the priest, “Go to Anathoth [town], to your land there. You deserve to be killed, but I will not execute you now, because you were the one who [supervised the men who] carried Yahweh’s Sacred Chest for David my father, and you endured all the troubles that my father endured.”
Amalalu, hina bagade Soloumane da gobele salasu dunu A: baia: dama amane sia: i, “Dia soge gabolo lai A: nadode amoga masa. Na da di medole legemu da defea gala, be na wahadafa di hame medole legemu. Bai di da na ada Da: ibidi musa: se nabaloba, di da e fidilalu amola Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo ouligilalu.”
27 So Solomon dismissed Abiathar from being the priest of Yahweh. By doing that he caused to happen what Yahweh had said [many years previously] at Shiloh, [that some day he would get rid] of the descendants [MTY] of Eli.
Amalalu, Soloumane da A: baia: da ea Hina Godema gobele salasu hawa: hamonanu amo fadegai. Amola Hina Gode da musa: Siailou moilaiga sia: i, (1 Sa: miuele 2:27-36 amo gobele salasu dunu Ilai amola ea fi da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu), amo sia: da didili hamoi dagoi ba: i.
28 Joab had not supported Absalom [when he tried to become the king], but he had supported Adonijah. So when Joab heard what had happened, he ran to the Sacred Tent, and he grasped the projections on the corners of the altar, [because he knew that no one would kill him there].
Youa: be da amo hou nabi dagoi. (E da A: dounaidia fuligala: lalu be A: basalome hame fuligala: i.) Amaiba: le, e da Hina Gode Abula Diasuga hobeale, oloda hegomai da: iya ‘hono’ amo gagui.
29 When someone told Solomon that Joab had run to the Sacred Tent and was standing alongside the altar, Solomon told Benaiah, “Go and execute Joab.”
Soloumane da Youa: be da Hina Gode Abula Diasuga hobeale, oloda ‘hono’ gagulalebe, amo sia: nababeba: le, e da sia: adole iasu dunu ema asunasi. E da Youa: bema ea hobea: i bai amo adole ba: i. Youa: be da bu adole i, “Na da Hina Gode na gaga: ma: ne hobea: i. Bai na Soloumaneba: le beda: i.” Amaiba: le, Soloumane da Youa: be medole legemusa: , Bina: ia asunasi.
30 So Benaiah went to the Sacred Tent and said to Joab, “The king commands you to come out!” But Joab replied, “No, I will die here.” So Benaiah went back to the king and reported [what he had said to Joab, and] what Joab had replied.
E da Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasuga asili, Youa: bema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade da dima gadili misa amane sia: sa.” Youa: be da bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Na da guiguda: bogomu.” Bina: ia da hina bagadema buhagili, Youa: be ea sia: i ema olelei.
31 The king replied to him, “Do what he has requested. Kill him and bury his body. If you do that, my descendants [MTY] and I will no longer be punished for what Joab did when he killed [MTY] two men who (were innocent/had not done anything that is wrong).
Soloumane da amane sia: i, “Youa: be ea sia: i defele hamoma. Amogawi e medole legema amola ea da: i hodo uli dogoma. Youa: be da wadela: i hame hamosu dunu medole legebeba: le, dunu huluane da Da: ibidi amola ea fi ilima ougili fofogadigi. Be e bogosea, ninia da amo se bu hame nabimu.
32 But Yahweh will punish [MTY] Joab for attacking and killing Abner, the commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa, the commander of the army of Judah, two men who were more righteous and better [DOU] men than he is. My father David did not even know that Joab [was planning to murder them].
Hina Gode da Youa: bema se iasu imunu. Bai e da na ada Da: ibidima mae adole, wadela: i hame hamosu dunu aduna (ela hou noga: i da Youa: be ea hou baligi) amo medole legei. Amo dunu da A: bena (Isala: ili dadi gagui wa: i ouligisudafa) amola Ama: isa (Yuda dadi gagui wa: i ouligisudafa).
33 Joab and his descendants will be punished [IDM] forever for his murdering Abner and Amasa. But things will forever go well for David’s descendants [MTY] who rule [MTY] as King David did.”
Amo medole legesu hou ea se dabe iasu da mae fisili, eso huluane, Youa: be amola ea fi ilima doaga: ga: la: lumu. Be Hina Gode da mae fisili, eso huluane Da: ibidi ea fi amo da ea fisuga fisia, ilima hahawane dogolegesu hou amola hasalasisu hou imunu.”
34 So Benaiah went [into the Sacred Tent] and killed Joab. Joab was buried on his property in the desert [part of Judah].
Amaiba: le, Bina: ia da Hina Gode Abula Diasuga asili, Youa: be medole legei. Ilia da ea da: i hodo ea moilai sogega uli dogone sali.
35 Then the king appointed Benaiah to be the commander of the army instead of Joab, and he appointed Zadok to be the priest instead of Abiathar.
Soloumane da Bina: iama, Youa: be ea sogebi (dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu) i dagoi. Amola e da gobele salasu sogebi (A: baia: da musa: ouligisu) amo Sa: idogema i dagoi.
36 Then the king sent [a messenger] to summon Shimei, and the king said to him, “Build a house for yourself here in Jerusalem. Remain there and do not leave the city to go anywhere.
Amalalu, hina bagade da Simiai ema misa: ne sia: i. E da ema amane sia: i, “Dia diasu amo guiguda: Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amo ganodini gaguma. Amogawi esaloma amola moilai mae yolesima.
37 Be sure that the day that you leave Jerusalem and go across the Kidron Brook, you will be executed, and it will be (your own fault/what you deserve).”
Be di da moilaiga ga asili, Gidalone Hano amo baligisia, di da bogosu ba: mu. Amola di da dia hamobeba: le fawane amo se dabe iasu ba: mu.”
38 Shimei replied, “Your Majesty, what you say is good. I will do what you have said.” So Shimei remained in Jerusalem for several years.
Simiai da amane sia: i, “Defea hina bagade! Na da dia sia: i defele hamomu.” Amaiba: le, e da eso bagohame Yelusaleme amo ganodini esalu.
39 But three years later, two of Shimei’s slaves ran away. They went to stay with Maacah’s son Achish, the king of Gath [city]. When someone told Shimei that they were in Gath,
Be ode udiana gidigili, ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu aduna da hobeale, Ga: de soge hina bagade A: igisi (Ma: iaga ea mano) ema asi. Simiai da ela da Ga: de sogega doaga: i nababeba: le,
40 he put a saddle on his donkey and [got on it and] went to Gath. He found his slaves staying with King Achish and brought them back home.
e da ea dougi da: iya fisu ligisili, fila heda: le, ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu hogomusa: , Ga: de soge hina bagade A: igisima asi. E da ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu ba: beba: le, ela ea diasuga bu oule misi.
41 But someone told King Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned.
Soloumane da ea hamoi nababeba: le,
42 So the king sent [a soldier] to summon Shimei and said to him, “I told you to solemnly promise, knowing that Yahweh [MTY] was listening, that you must not leave Jerusalem. I told you [RHQ], ‘Be sure that if you ever leave Jerusalem, you will be executed.’ And you replied [RHQ] to me, ‘What you have said is good; I will do what you have said.’
e da ema misa: ne sia: sili, ema amane sia: i, “Na sia: beba: le, di da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amo Yelusaleme hamedafa yolesima: ne ilegele sia: i. Amola na da dima sisane sia: i, di da Yelusaleme yolesea, dafawane bogomu. Di da amo sia: dafawaneyale ilegei amola na sia: nabawane hamoma: ne sia: i.
43 So why did you not do what you solemnly promised to Yahweh? Why did you disobey what I commanded you?”
Amaiba: le, di da abuliba: le dia ilegele sia: i wadela: lesibala: ? Amola na hamoma: ne sia: i hame nabibala: ?
44 The king also said to Shimei, “You know all the evil things that you did to my father David. So Yahweh will now punish you for the evil things that you did.
Di da na ada Da: ibidima wadela: le bagade hamoi. Amo di dawa: Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da dima dawa: ma: ne se dabe imunu.
45 But Yahweh will bless me, and he will enable David’s descendants [MTY] to rule forever.”
Be E da nama hahawane dogolegele imunu amola Da: ibidi ea hina bagade ouligisu hou da gasa fili, eso huluane dialumu.”
46 Then the king gave an order to Benaiah, and he went and killed Shimei. So Solomon was completely in control of the kingdom.
Amalalu, hina bagade da Bina: iama hamoma: ne sia: beba: le, e da ga asili, Simiai medole legei. Amalalu, Soloumane da gasa fili, Isala: ili ouligisu hou gaguiwane ba: i.
