< 1 Kings 1 >

1 When King David was very old [IDM, DOU], even though his servants put many blankets on top of him, he was unable to become warm.
Ary Davida mpanjaka dia efa zoki-olona sady nandroso fahanterana; ary norakofany lamba izy, fa tsy nety nafana.
2 So they said to him, “Your Majesty, allow us to search for a young virgin who can stay with you and take care of you. She can sleep close to you and enable you to become warm.”
Ka dia hoy ny mpanompony taminy: Aoka hitadiavana zazavavy virijina ny mpanjaka tompoko, dia aoka hitoetra eto anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy mba ho mpitaiza azy, ary aoka handry eo amin’ ny tratranao izy, ka dia hampahafana ny mpanjaka tompoko.
3 [The king gave them permission, ] so they searched throughout Israel for a beautiful young woman. They found a woman named Abishag, from Shunem [town], and brought her to the king.
Ary dia nitady zazavavy tsara tarehy eran’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely rehetra izy ka nahita an’ i Abisaga Sonemita, dia nentiny tany amin’ ny mpanjaka.
4 She was [truly] very beautiful. She took care of [DOU] the king, but the king did not have sexual relations with her.
Ary tsara tarehy dia tsara tarehy razazavavy, dia tonga mpitaiza ny mpanjaka sady nanompo azy izy; nefa ny mpanjaka tsy nahalala azy.
5 [After Absalom died], David’s oldest surviving son was Adonijah, whose mother was Haggith. He was a very handsome/good-looking man. But David had never rebuked him about anything he did. [After Absalom died, Adonijah thought that he would become king]. So he started to boast, saying “I will become king [now].” Then he provided for himself some chariots, and men to drive them, and horses [to pull them], and 50 men to run [as his bodyguards] in front of those chariots [wherever he went].
Ary Adonia, zanakalahin’ i Hagita, nanandratra ny tenany ka nanao hoe: Izaho no hanjaka; dia nanomana kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly ary dimam-polo lahy ho mpihazakazaka eo alohany izy.
6
Ary ny rainy tsy mbola niteny mafy azy atory hatrizay niainany nanao hoe: Nahoana ianao no manao toy izao? sady lehilahy tsara tarehy tokoa izy; ary izy no na tera-dreniny nanarakaraka an’ i Absaloma.
7 One day he conferred with Joab, [David’s army commander], and Abiathar the priest, and they promised/agreed to help/support Adonijah.
Ary efa niresaka tamin’ i Joaba, zanak’ i Zeroia, sy Abiatara mpisorona izy; ka dia niandany tamin’ i Adonia izy roa lahy ka nanampy azy.
8 But Zadok, who was also a priest, Benaiah [who had supervised David’s bodyguards], Nathan the prophet, Shimei and Rei, and David’s most capable soldiers refused to help/support Adonijah.
Fa Zadoka mpisorona sy Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, sy Natana mpaminany sy Simey sy Rey ary ny lehilahy mahery izay an’ i Davida kosa tsy mba niandany tamin’ i Adonia.
9 One day Adonijah went to Snake Rock near En-Rogel [Spring, which is near Jerusalem], to sacrifice some sheep and oxen and fattened cattle. He invited most of his brothers, King David’s other sons, to come. He also invited all of the king’s officials from Judah to come to the celebration.
Ary Adonia namono ondry aman’ osy sy omby ary zanak’ omby mifahy teo anilan’ ny vato Zoheleta tanilan’ i En-rogela ka nanasa ny rahalahiny zanakalahin’ ny mpanjaka rehetra sy ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Joda, mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka;
10 But he did not invite Nathan or Benaiah or the king’s most capable soldiers or his [younger/half]-brother Solomon.
fa Natana mpaminany sy Benaia sy ny lehilahy mahery ary Solomona rahalahiny no tsy mba nasainy.
11 Nathan [found out what they were doing, so he went to] Solomon’s mother Bathsheba [and] asked her, “Have you not heard that Haggith’s son Adonijah is declared himself to be the king? And King David does not know about it!
Ary Natana niteny tamin’ i Batseba, renin’ i Solomona, hoe: Moa tsy renao va fa efa manjaka Adonia, zanak’ i Hagita, nefa tsy fantatr’ i Davida tompontsika akory izany?
12 So if you want to save yourself and your son Solomon from being killed, allow me to tell you what you should do.
Koa etsy homeko saina ianao hamonjenao ny ainao sy ny ain’ i Solomona zanakao.
13 Go immediately to King David. Say to him, ‘Your Majesty, you solemnly promised me [RHQ] that my son Solomon would become the king after you [die], and that he would sit on your throne [and rule]. So why is it that Adonijah [has said that he] is now the king?’
Mandehana mankany amin’ i Davida mpanjaka, ka lazao aminy hoe: Tsy nianiana tamiko mpanompovavinao va ianao, ry mpanjaka tompoko, nanao hoe: Solomona zanakao-lahy no hanjaka handimby ahy tokoa, ary izy no hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako? Koa nahoana indray no Adonia no manjaka?
14 Then, while you are still talking to the king, I will come in and tell him that what you are saying to him [about Adonijah] is true.”
Ary raha mbola miteny amin’ ny mpanjaka ianao, dia, indro, izaho koa hiditra manaraka anao ka hanamarina ny teninao.
15 So Bathsheba went to see the king in his bedroom. He was very old, and Abishag was taking care of him.
Ary Batseba dia nankao amin’ ny mpanjaka tao amin’ ny efi-trano nitoerany; ary efa antitra ny mpanjaka; ary Abisaga Sonemita nanompo azy.
16 Bathsheba bowed very low in front of the king, and the king asked her, “What do you want?”
Dia niondrika Batseba ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Inona no ilainao?
17 She replied, “Your Majesty, you solemnly promised me, knowing that Yahweh our God [was listening] [IDM], that my son Solomon would become king after you [die], and that he would sit on your throne [and rule].
Dia hoy izy taminy: Tompokolahy ô, Jehovah Andriamanitrao no nianiananao tamiko mpanompovavinao hoe: Solomona zanakaolahy no hanjaka handimby ahy tokoa, ary izy no hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako.
18 But now, believe it or not, Adonijah has become king, and you do not know anything about it.
Kanjo izao dia, indro, Adonia no manjaka; kanefa tsy fantatrao izany, ry mpanjaka tompoko.
19 He has sacrificed a lot of oxen and fattened cattle and sheep, and he has invited all of your other sons to the celebration. He has also invited Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander of your army, but he did not invite your son Solomon.
Ary efa namono omby sy zanak’ omby mifahy ary ondry aman’ osy betsaka izy ka efa nanasa ny zanakalahin’ ny mpanjaka rehetra sy Abiatara mpisorona ary Joaba, komandin’ ny miaramila; fa Solomona mpanomponao ihany no tsy mba nasainy.
20 Your Majesty, all the people [SYN] of Israel are expecting you to tell them who is the one who will become king after you are no longer the king.
Ary ianao, ry mpanjaka tompoko ô, ny mason’ ny Isiraely rehetra manandratra anao hilazanao izay hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandriananao mpanjaka tompoko handimby anao.
21 If you do not do that, what will happen is that after you die [EUP] people will consider that my son Solomon and I are rebelling, [and they will execute us because we did not help Adonijah to become king].”
Fa rehefa lasa modi-mandry any amin’ ny razany ny mpanjaka tompoko, dia izaho sy Solomona zanako no atao meloka.
22 While she was still talking to the king, Nathan came [to the palace].
Ary raha mbola niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka ravehivavy, dia, indro, niditra koa Natana mpaminany.
23 The king’s servants/advisors told David, “Nathan the prophet has come.” So [Bathsheba left, and] Nathan went into where the king was and knelt down, with his face on the ground.
Ary nisy nanambara amin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Indro Natana mpaminany. Dia niditra teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy ka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehany.
24 Then Nathan said, “Your Majesty, have you declared that Adonijah will become king after you are no longer the king?
Ary hoy Natana: Ry mpanjaka tompoko ô, fa angaha ianao efa niteny hoe: Adonia no hanjaka handimby ahy, ary izy no hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako.
25 [I say that] because today he has gone down [to En-Rogel Spring] and has sacrificed a lot of oxen, fattened cattle, and sheep. And he has invited all of your other sons, Joab the army commander, and Abiathar the priest. They are all eating and drinking with him and saying ‘We hope/desire that King Adonijah will live a long time!’
Fa he! izy nidina androany ary namono omby sy zanak’ omby mifahy sy ondry aman’ osy betsaka ka nanasa ny zanakalahin’ ny mpanjaka rehetra sy ny komandin’ ny miaramila sy Abiatara mpisorona; ary indreo izy mihinana ny misotro eo anatrehany ka manao hoe: Ho ela velona anie Adonia mpanjaka!
26 But he did not invite me or Zadok the priest or Benaiah or Solomon.
Fa izaho mpanomponao sy Zadoka mpisorona sy Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, ary Solomona mpanomponao ihany no tsy mba nasainy.
27 Did you, as the king, say that they should do this without telling your other officials who you want to become king [MTY] after you are no longer the king?”
Moa avy tamin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko va no nahatonga izany zavatra izany, ka tsy mba nampahafantarinao ny mpanomponao izay hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandriananao mpanjaka tompoko handimby anao?
28 Then [after Nathan left the room, ] King David said [to one of his servants], “Tell Bathsheba to come in here again.” So [he went and told her, and] she came in and stood in front of the king.
Ary namaly Davida mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Antsoy hankatỳ amiko Batseba. Dia niditra nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy ka nitsangana teo anatrehany
29 Then the king said, “Yahweh has rescued me from all my troubles. I promised you, with Yahweh the God whom we Israelis [worship] listening, that your son Solomon would be king after I am no longer the king. Today, as surely as Yahweh lives, [I solemnly declare that] I will do what I promised.”
Ary ny mpanjaka nianiana hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay namonjy ny aiko tamin’ ny fahoriana rehetra,
dia tahaka ilay nianianako tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, sady nilazako taminao hoe: Solomona zanakaolahy no hanjaka handimby ahy tokoa, ary izy no hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako hisolo ahy, dia izany ihany no hataoko anio.
31 Bathsheba knelt down with her face on the ground and said, “Your Majesty, I hope/desire that you will live for many more years [HYP]!”
Ary Batseba niondrika, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Ho velona mandrakizay anio Davida mpanjaka tompoko!
32 Then King David said, “Summon Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah.” [So someone went and summoned them.] When they came in,
Ary hoy Davida mpanjaka: Antsoy hankatỳ amiko Zadoka mpisorona sy Natana mpaminany ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada. Dia niditra nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy telo lahy.
33 he said to them, “Put my son Solomon on my mule. Take him with my officials down to Gihon [Spring].
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Ento miaraka aminareo ny mpanompon’ ny tomponareo, ary ampitaingeno ny ampondravaviko Solomona zanakolahy, ka ento midìna any Gihona izy.
34 There, you two, Zadok and Nathan, should anoint him, [with olive oil to appoint him to be] the king of Israel. Then you must blow trumpets, and [all the people there must] shout, ‘We hope/desire that King Solomon will live for many years!’
Ary aoka Zadoka mpisorona sy Natana mpaminany hanosotra azy any ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely; ary tsofinareo ny anjomara, ka lazao hoe: Ho ela velona anie Solomona mpanjaka!
35 Then follow him back here, and he will come and sit on my throne. He will then become king instead of me. I have appointed him to be the ruler of [all the people of] Israel and of Judah.”
Dia miakara manaraka azy ianareo, ary aoka izy hiditra ka hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako; fa izy no ho mpanjaka hisolo ahy, satria izy no voatendriko ho mpanapaka ny Isiraely sy ny Joda.
36 Benaiah replied, “We will do that! We hope/wish that Yahweh, who is your God [and our God], will cause it to happen!
Ary Benaja, zanak’ i Joiada, namaly ny mpanjaka hoe: Amena! Hiteny tahaka izany koa anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny mpanjaka tompoko.
37 King David, Yahweh has helped you; we hope/wish that he will also help Solomon and enable him to become a greater king than you have been.”
Toy ny nomban’ i Jehovah ny mpanjaka tompoko anie no mba hombany an’ i Solomona koa, ary hataony be voninahitra mihoatra noho ny seza fiandrianan’ i Davida mpanjaka tompoko anie ny seza fiandrianan’ i Solomona.
38 So Zadok, Nathan, Benaiah, and the two groups of men who were the king’s bodyguards went and put Solomon on King David’s mule and escorted him down to Gihon [Spring].
Dia nidina Zadoka mpisorona sy Natana mpaminany sy Renaia, zanak’ i Joiada, ary ny miaramila mpiambina andriana, dia nampitaingina an’ i Solomona ny ampondravavin’ i Davida mpanjaka izy, ka dia nitondra azy nankany Gihona.
39 There Zadok took the container of [olive] oil from the Sacred Tent and (anointed/poured some oil on) Solomon. Then the trumpets were blown, and all the people shouted, “We hope/wish that King Solomon will live for many years!”
Ary Zadoka mpisorona naka ny tandroka misy diloilo tao amin’ ny trano-lay ka nanosotra an’ i Solomona. Ary notsofina ny anjomara, ka dia hoy ny vahoaka rehetra: Ho ela velona anie Solomona mpanjaka!
40 Then all the people followed him back up [to the city], shouting joyfully and playing flutes. They shouted very loudly, with the result that the ground shook.
Dia niakatra nanaraka azy ny vahoaka rehetra ary nitsoka sodina sady nifaly dia nifaly, ka dia nihorohoro ny tany noho ny feony.
41 When Adonijah and all (his guests/the people whom he had invited) were finishing eating at their celebration, they heard the noise. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpets, he asked, “What is causing all that noise in the city?”
Ary Adonia sy ireo olona rehetra izay nasaina teo aminy nandre izany, rehefa nitsahatra nihinana izy. Ka raha nahare ny feon’ ny anjomara Joaba, dia hoy izy: Inona re izany hotakotaka mampitabataba ny tanàna izany e?
42 While he was still speaking, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, arrived. Adonijah said, “Come in! You are a man whom we can trust, so you must be bringing us good news!”
Fa raha mbola niteny izy, indro, tonga Jonatana, zanak’ i Abiatara mpisorona; ary hoy Adonia taminy: Mandrosoa; fa lehilahy tsara fanahy ianao, ka ho teny tsara no entinao.
43 Jonathan replied, “No, [I do not have good news]! His Majesty, King David, has caused Solomon to be the king!
Fa Jonatana niteny ka nanao tamin’ i Adonia hoe: Tsia, tsy izany tsy akory, fa Davida mpanjaka tompontsika efa nanangana an’ i Solomona tokoa ho mpanjaka.
44 He sent Zadok, Nathan, Benaiah, and his own group of bodyguards to go with Solomon. They put Solomon on King David’s mule.
Ary ny mpanjaka efa naniraka an’ i Zadoka mpisorona sy Natana mpaminany sy Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, ary ny miaramila mpiambina andriana hiaraka aminy, ka nampitaingenin’ ireo ny ampondravavin’ ny mpanjaka izy.
45 They [went down to] Gihon [Spring], and there Zadok and Nathan anointed him to become the king. Now they have returned from there to the city, shouting joyfully. That is why there is that great/loud noise that you are hearing.
Ary Zadoka mpisorona sy Natana mpaminany efa nanosotra azy teo Gihona ho mpanjaka; ary niakatra avy teo izy sady nifaly, ka dia nihorika terỳ ny tanàna. Izany no hotakotaka renareo.
46 So Solomon is now our king [MTY].
Ary koa, Solomona izao dia efa mipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakana.
47 Furthermore, the palace officials came to His Majesty, King David, to tell him that they approved of what he had done. They said, ‘We wish/hope that our God will enable Solomon [MTY] to become more famous than you have been and enable him to be a better king than you have been.’ When they said that, the king, lying on his bed, bowed his head to worship [Yahweh].
Ary dia tonga koa ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka hisaotra an’ i Davida mpanjaka tompontsika hoe: Hataon’ Andriamanitrao ho tsara noho ny anaranao anie ny anaran’ i Solomona, ary hataony ho be voninahitra mihoatra noho ny seza fiandriananao anie ny seza fiandrianany! Dia niankohoka teo am-parafara ny mpanjaka
48 Then he said, ‘I praise Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], because he has allowed one of my sons to become the king today, and has permitted me to see it happen.’”
ka niteny hoe: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely Izay nanome ny hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianako androany, sady hitan’ ny masoko koa izany.
49 Then all of Adonijah’s guests (trembled/were afraid), so they all immediately got up and left and scattered.
Dia raiki-tahotra izay rehetra nasain’ i Adonia ka niainga, ary samy lasa nandeha amin’ izay nalehany avy izy rehetra.
50 Adonijah was afraid of what Solomon [would do], so he went [to the Sacred Tent] and grabbed the projections at the corners of the altar, [because he knew that no one would kill him there].
Ary Adonia koa natahotra an’ i Solomona, dia niainga ka lasa nangia ny tandroky ny alitara.
51 But someone told Solomon, “Hey/Listen, Adonijah is afraid of you, so he [has gone to the Sacred Tent and] is holding on to the corners of the altar. He is saying, ‘[Before I leave, ] I want King Solomon to solemnly promise that he will not command that I be executed.’”
Ary nambara tamin’ i Solomona hoe: Indro, Adonia matahotra an’ i Solomona mpanjaka; koa indro izy efa mangia ny tandroky ny alitara ka manao hoe: Aoka Solomone mpanjaka hianiana amiko aloha fa tsy hamono ahy mpanompony amin’ ny sabatra.
52 Solomon replied, “If he proves that he is loyal to me, I will not harm him at all [IDM]. But if he does anything that is wrong, he will be executed.”
Fa hoy Solomona: Raha hita fa lehilahy tsara fanahy izy, dia tsy hisy na dia singam-bolony iray akory aza ho latsaka amin’ ny tany; fa raha misy heloka kosa ho hita aminy, dia ho faty ihany izy.
53 So King Solomon sent [some men to Adonijah], and they brought him back from the altar. He came to Solomon and bowed down in front of him. Then Solomon said to him, “Go home.”
Dia naniraka Solomona mpanjaka nampidina azy hiala amin’ ny alitara. Dia avy izy ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ i Solomona mpanjaka; ary dia hoy Solomona taminy: Modia any an-tranonao.
