1 Esi Fia David tsi xɔ ƒe geɖe la, vuvɔ wɔnɛ ale gbegbe be, ne wotsyɔ avɔ geɖe nɛ hã la, vuvɔ gawɔnɛ kokoko.
And kyng Dauid wax eld, and hadde ful many daies of age; and whanne he was hilid with clothis, he was not maad hoot.
2 Esia ta eƒe dɔlawo gblɔ nɛ be, “Na míadi ɖetugbi si menya ŋutsu o la ne wòanɔ fia la gbɔ anɔ edzi kpɔm. Ate ŋu amlɔ egbɔ ale be wòade dzo lãme na míaƒe aƒetɔ, fia la.”
Therfor hise seruauntis seiden to hym, Seke we to oure lord the kyng a yong wexynge virgyn; and stonde sche bifor the kyng, and nursche sche hym, and slepe in his bosum, and make hoot oure lord the kyng.
3 Wodi nyɔnuvi dzetugbe aɖe le Israelnyigba blibo la dzi, wokpɔ Abisag, Sunamitɔ la eye wokplɔe vɛ na fia la.
Therfor thei souyten a yong wexyng virgyn, fair in alle the coostis of Israel; and thei founden Abisag of Sunam, and thei brouyten hir to the kyng.
4 Nyɔnuvia dze tugbe ŋutɔ. Elé be na fia la eye wòsubɔe gake fia la medɔ kplii o.
Forsothe the damysel was ful fair, and sche slepte with the kyng, and mynystride to hym; forsothe the king knew not hir fleischli.
5 Le ɣeyiɣi ma me la, David ƒe viŋutsu, Adoniya, ame si dadae nye Hagit la ɖo be yeatsɔ ye ɖokui aɖo fiae ɖe ye fofo amegãɖeɖi la teƒe. Ale wòdi tasiaɖamwo kple sɔdolawo kple ame blaatɔ̃ siwo anɔ du ƒum le fia la ŋgɔ la na eɖokui.
Sotheli Adonye, sone of Agith, was reisid, and seide, Y schal regne. And he made to hym a chare, and knyytis, and fifti men, that runnen bifor hym.
6 Azɔ fofoa, David, mehe nya ɖe eŋu kpɔ alo he to nɛ kpɔ le eƒe agbe me o. Enye ɖekakpui dzeɖekɛ aɖe eye eyae dzɔ ɖe Absalom yome.
Nether his fadir repreuyde hym ony tyme, and seide, Whi `didist thou this? Forsothe also he was ful fair, the secounde child aftir Absolon; and his word was with Joab,
7 Adoniya he Aʋafia Yoab kple nunɔla Abiata ɖe eƒe akpa dzi eye wodo ŋugbe nɛ be, yewoakpe ɖe eŋu wòazu fia.
sone of Saruye, and with `Abiathar, preest, that helpiden the partis of Adonye.
8 Ke ame siwo ganɔ Fia David yome eye womede Adoniya dzi o la dometɔ aɖewoe nye, Zadok kple Benaya, ame siwo nye nunɔlawo, Nyagblɔɖila Natan, Simei, Rei kple David ƒe aʋafiawo.
Sotheli Sadoch, the preest, and Banaie, sone of Joiada, and Nathan, the prophete, and Semey, and Cerethi, and Ferethi, and al the strengthe of the oost of Dauid, weren not with Adonye.
9 Adoniya yi En Rogel eye wòtsɔ alẽwo, nyitsuwo kple gbɔ̃vi damiwo sa vɔe le Sohelet kpe la gbɔ. Ebia tso Fia David ƒe viŋutsu bubuawo katã kple fiaŋume siwo katã nɔ Yuda la si be woava kpɔ ale si woaɖo fia ye la teƒe.
Therfor whanne rammes weren offrid, and caluys, and alle fatte thingis, bisidis the stoon Zoelech, that was nyy the welle of Rogel, Adonye clepide alle hise britheren, sones of the kyng, and alle the men of Juda, seruauntis of the kyng.
10 Ke mekpe Nyagblɔɖila Natan kple Benaya kple aʋafia siwo le David dzi kple nɔvia ŋutsu, Solomo ya o.
Sotheli `he clepide not Nathan, the profete, and Banaie, and alle stronge men, and Salomon, his brothir.
11 Nyagblɔɖila Natan yi Batseba, Solomo dada gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Ènya be Hagit ƒe vi, Adoniya, zu fia azɔ eye míaƒe aƒetɔ David menya naneke tso eŋu oa?
Therfor Nathan seide to Bersabee, modir of Salomon, Whether thou herdist, that Adonye, sone of Agith, regnede, and oure lord Dauid knoweth not this?
12 Ne èdi be yeaɖe ye ŋutɔ ƒe agbe kple ye vi Solomo tɔ la, ekema nàwɔ nu si magblɔ na wò la pɛpɛpɛ.
Now therfor come thou, take thou counsel of me, and saue thi lijf, and of Salomon thi sone.
13 Yi Fia David gbɔ enumake eye nàbiae be, ‘Nye aƒetɔ, menye wòe do ŋugbe nam be vinye Solomo aɖu fia ɖe ye yome eye wòanɔ yeƒe fiazikpui dzi oa? Ekema nu ka ta Adoniya le fia ɖum?’
Go thou, and entre to kyng Dauid, and seie thou to hym, Whether not thou, my lord the kyng, hast swore to me, thin handmaide, and seidist, that Salomon thi sone schal regne aftir me, and he schal sitte in my trone?
14 Ne èle nu ƒom kplii ko la, mava ɖo kpe nya si gblɔm nèle la dzi.”
Whi therfor regneth Adonye? And yit while thou schalt speke there with the kyng, Y schal come aftir thee, and `Y schal fille thi wordis.
15 Ale Batseba yi fia la ƒe xɔ gã me. Fia la tsi ŋutɔ azɔ eye Abisag nɔ esubɔm.
Therfor Bersabee entride to the kyng in the closet; forsothe the kyng was ful eeld, and Abisag of Sunam `mynystride to hym.
16 Batseba bɔbɔ hede ta agu ɖe fia la ŋkume. Fia la biae be, “Nu kae hiã wò?”
Bersabee bowide hir silf, and worschipide the kyng; to whom the kyng seide, What wolt thou to thee?
17 Eɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, wò ŋutɔe ka atam na nye, wò dɔla, le Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ me be, ‘Viwò Solomo aɖu fia ɖe yonyeme eye wòanɔ nye fiazikpui dzi.’
And sche answeride, and seide, My lord the kyng, thou hast swore to thin handmaide bi thi Lord God, Salomon thy sone schal regne aftir me, and he schal sitte in my trone;
18 Ke Adoniya boŋ va zu fia fifia eye wò, nye aƒetɔ, fia la, mènya naneke tso eŋu gɔ̃ hã o.
and lo! Adonye hath regnede now, `while thou, my lord the kyng, knowist not;
19 Etsɔ nyitsuwo, nyivi damiwo kple alẽwo sa vɔe le eƒe fiaɖogbe eye wòkpe fia la ƒe viŋutsuwo katã, nunɔla Abiata kple Aʋafia Yoab, ke mekpe Solomo, wò dɔla, ya o.
he hath slayn oxis, and alle fatte thingis, and ful many rammes; and he clepide alle the sones of the king, also `Abiathar preest, and Joab, the prince of chyualri; but he clepide not Salomon, thi seruaunt.
20 Azɔ la, nye aƒetɔ kple fia, Israel blibo la ƒe ŋku le dziwò be woanya ame si anɔ nye aƒetɔ, fia la ƒe fiazikpui dzi aɖu fia ɖe eyome.
Netheles, my lord the kyng, the iyen of al Israel biholden in to thee, that thou schewe to hem, who owith to sitte in thi trone, my lord the kyng, aftir thee;
21 Ne menye nenema o la, ne wotsɔ nye aƒetɔ, fia la mlɔ anyi be wòadzudzɔ le fofoawo gbɔ teti ko la, woawɔ fu nye kple vinye Solomo abe hlɔ̃dolawoe míenye ene.”
and it schal be, whanne my lord the kyng hath slepte with hise fadris, Y and my sone Salomon schulen be synneris.
22 Esi wòganɔ nu ƒom kple fia la ko la, Nyagblɔɖila Natan va do.
`While sche spak yit with the king, Nathan, the prophete, cam.
23 Wogblɔ na fia la bena, “Nyagblɔɖila Natan le diwòm.” Ale wòdo ɖe fia la gbɔ eye wòde ta agu nɛ.
And thei telden to the kyng, and seiden, Nathan, the prophete, is present. And whanne he hadde entrid in the siyt of the kyng, and hadde worschipide hym lowli to erthe,
24 Natan gblɔ be, “Ɖe wò, nye aƒetɔ, fia ɖe gbeƒã be Adoniya aɖu fia ɖe tewòƒe eye be wòanɔ wò fiazikpui dzia?
Nathan seide, My lord the kyng, seidist thou, Adonye regne aftir me, and sitte he on my trone?
25 Egbe la, etsɔ nyitsuwo, nyivi damiwo kple alẽwo sa vɔe eye wòkpe fia la ƒe viŋutsuwo katã. Ekpe Aʋafia Yoab kple nunɔla Abiata hã, wole nu ɖum eye wole nu nom kplii fifi laa. Wole ɣli dom be, ‘Fia Adoniya nanɔ agbe tegbee!’
For he cam doun to dai, and offride oxis, and fatte thingis, and ful many wetheris; and he clepide alle the sones of the kyng, also Abiathar, preest; and whanne thei eten, and drunken bifor hym, and seiden, Kyng Adonye lyue;
26 Ke mekpe nye, wò dɔla Zadok, nunɔla la kple Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi kple wò dɔla Solomo ya o.
he clepide not me, thi seruaunt, and Sadoch, preest, and Banaie, sone of Joiada, and Salomon, thi sone.
27 Ɖe esia nye nane si nye aƒetɔ, fia la wɔ, ke mena eƒe dɔlawo nya ame si anɔ nye aƒetɔ ƒe fiazikpui dzi aɖu fia ɖe eteƒe oa?”
Whether this word yede out fro my lord the kyng, and thou schewidist not to me, thi seruaunt, who schulde sitte on the trone of my lord the king after hym?
28 Fia la gblɔ be, “Miyɔ Batseba nam!” Ale Batseba gbugbɔ va xɔ la me eye wòtsi tsitre ɖe fia la ŋkume.
And kyng Dauid answeride, and seide, Clepe ye Bersabee to me. And whanne sche hadde entrid bifor the kyng, and hadde stonde bifor hym, the kyng swoor,
29 Tete fia la ka atam be, “Esi Yehowa, ame si ɖem tso dzɔgbevɔ̃e ɖe sia ɖe me le agbe la,
and seide, The Lord lyueth, that delyueryde my lijf fro al angwisch;
30 meka atam bena viwò Solomoe aɖu fia ɖe yonyeme eye wòanɔ nye fiazikpui dzi abe ale si meka atam na wò le Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ŋkume kpɔ ene.”
for as Y swore to thee bi the Lord God of Israel, and seide, Salomon, thi sone, schal regne after me, and he schal sitte on my trone for me, so Y schal do to dai.
31 Batseba gabɔbɔ, gade ta agu le Fia la ŋkume eye wòdo ɣli be, “Oo, nye aƒetɔ, meda akpe na wò. Nye aƒetɔ, fia la nanɔ agbe tegbee!”
And Bersabee, with the cheer cast doun in to erthe, worschipide the kyng, and seide, My lord the kyng Dauid lyue with outen ende.
32 Fia David ɖe gbe be, “Miyɔ Zadok, nunɔla la kple Natan, nyagblɔɖila la kple Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi, ɖa!” Esi wova la,
And kyng Dauid seide, Clepe ye Sadoch, the preest, to me, and Nathan, the prophete, and Banaie, sone of Joiada. And whanne thei hadden entrid bifor the kyng,
33 egblɔ na wo be, “Kplɔ wò aƒetɔ ƒe subɔlawo, nàtsɔ vinye Solomo ɖo nye ŋutɔ nye tedzi dzi eye nàkplɔe yi Gihon.
the kyng seide to hem, Take with you the seruauntis of youre lord, and putte ye my sone Salomon on my mule, and lede ye hym in to Gyon.
34 Na Nunɔla Zadok kple Nyagblɔɖila Natan nasi ami na Solomo le afi ma abe Israel fia ene. Ekema miaku kpẽ eye miado ɣli be, ‘Fia Solomo nanɔ agbe tegbee!’
And Sadoch, the preest, and Nathan, the profete, anoynte hym in to kyng on Israel and Juda; and ye schulen synge with a clarioun, and ye schulen seie, Lyue kyng Salomon!
35 Ne miekplɔe gbɔ va ɖo afi sia la, mina wòanɔ anyi ɖe nye fiazikpui dzi abe fia yeye la ene elabena metiae be wòanye fia na Israel kple Yuda.”
Ye schulen stie aftir hym, and ye schulen come to Jerusalem; and he schal sitte on my trone, and he schal regne for me; and Y schal comaunde to hym, that he be duyk on Israel and on Juda.
36 Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi, gblɔ be, “Neva eme! Yehowa, wò Mawu la naɖo kpe edzi.
And Banaie, sone of Joiada, answeride to the kyng, and seide, Amen, `that is, so be it, ether verili, ether feithfuli; so speke the Lord God of my lord the kyng.
37 Yehowa nanɔ kple Solomo abe ale si wònɔ kple wò ene eye Mawu nana Solomo ƒe fiaɖuɖu nadze edzi wu wò ŋutɔ tɔ gɔ̃ hã!”
As the Lord was with my lord the kyng, so be he with Salomon, and make he the trone of Salomon heiyere than the trone of my lord the kyng Dauid.
38 Ale Nunɔla Zadok, Nyagblɔɖila Natan, Benaya kple David ŋu dzɔlawo kplɔ Solomo yi Gihon eye Solomo do Fia David ƒe tedzisɔ.
Therfor Sadoch, the preest, yede doun, and Nathan, the prophete, and Banaie, sone of Joiada, and Cerethi, and Ferethi; and thei puttiden Salomon on the mule of Dauid, the kyng, and thei brouyten hym in to Gion.
39 Zadok tsɔ lãdzo si me ami kɔkɔe le la tso Agbadɔ la me yi Gihon eye wòkɔe ɖe tame na Solomo. Woku kpẽawo eye ameawo katã do ɣli be, “Fia Solomo nanɔ agbe tegbee!”
And Sadoch, the preest, took an horn of oile of the tabernacle, and anoyntide Salomon; and thei sungen with a clarioun; and al the puple seide, Lyue kyng Salomon!
40 Le esia megbe la, wo katã wotrɔ va Yerusalem eye wonɔ dzidzɔɣli dom le mɔa dzi.
And al the multitude stiede after hym, and the puple of men syngynge with pipis, and `of men beynge glad with greet ioye, `stiede aftir hym; and the erthe sownede of the cry of hem.
41 Adoniya kple eƒe ame kpekpewo se dzidzɔɣli la esime wonɔ woƒe nuɖuɖu kple nunono la nu wum. Yoab bia be, “Nya kae le dzɔdzɔm? Nu ka ta ɣli le ɖiɖim bobobo ale le dua me?”
Forsothe Adonye herde, and alle that weren clepid of hym to feeste; and thanne the feeste was endid. But also Joab seide, whanne the vois of trumpe was herd, What wole it to it silf the cry of the citee makynge noise?
42 Yoab mekpɔ ɖe nu le nya siawo me hafi Yonatan, nunɔla Abiata ƒe vi, ƒu du va do ɖe wo dzi o. Adoniya gblɔ nɛ be, “Ge ɖe eme elabena ame nyuie nènye. Nya nyui aɖe anya nɔ asiwò kokoko.”
Yit the while he spak, Jonathan, sone of Abiathar, the preest, cam; to whom Adonye seide, Entre thou, for thou art a strong man, and tellynge goode thingis.
43 Yonatan ɖo eŋu na Adoniya be, “Ao! Míaƒe aƒetɔ, Fia David, tsɔ Solomo ɖo fiae.
And Jonathan answeride to Adonye, Nay; for oure lord the kyng Dauid hath ordeyned Salomon kyng;
44 Fia la ɖoe ɖa kple nunɔla Zadok, Nyagblɔɖila Natan, Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi, Keretitɔwo kple Peletitɔwo eye wodae ɖe fia ƒe tedzisɔ dzi.
and Dauid sente with Salomon Sadoch, the preest, and Nathan, the prophete, and Banaie, sone of Joiada, and Cerethi, and Ferethi; and thei puttiden Salomon on the mule of the kyng.
45 Nunɔla Zadok kple Nyagblɔɖila Natan si ami nɛ heɖoe fiae le Gihon. Wole aseye tsom tso afi ma eye du blibo la hã gli kple aseyetsotso. Eyae nye ɣli si sem miele.
And Sadoch, the preest, and Nathan, the prophete, anoyntiden hym kyng in Gion; and thei camen doun fro thennus beynge glad, and the citee sownede; this is the vois which ye herden.
46 Gawu la, Solomo nɔ anyi ɖe fiazikpui la dzi.
But also Salomon sittith on the trone of rewme;
47 Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, fiaŋumewo va yra míaƒe aƒetɔ, Fia David eye wogblɔ nɛ be, ‘Wò Mawu nana Solomo ƒe ŋkɔ nade dzi wu tɔwò eye eƒe fiazikpui nali ke wu tɔwò!’ Fia la de ta agu le eƒe aba dzi, subɔ Mawu
and the seruauntis of the kyng entriden, and blessiden oure lord the kyng Dauid, and seiden, God make large the name of Salomon aboue thi name, and magnyfye his trone aboue thi trone. And kyng Dauid worschipide in his bed;
48 eye wogblɔ be, ‘Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si na be nye ŋkuwo kpɔ ame si anɔ nye fiazikpui dzi egbe.’”
and ferthermore he spak these thingis, Blessid be the Lord God of Israel, that yaf to dai a sittere in my trone, while myn iyen seen.
49 Vɔvɔ̃ ɖo Adoniya ƒe ame kpekpewo katã eye wokaka gbẽe.
Therfor alle, that weren clepid of Adonye to feeste, weren aferd, and risiden, and ech man yede in to his weie.
50 Ke Adoniya ƒe vɔvɔ̃ na Solomo na wòyi ɖalé vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ɖe asi.
Sotheli Adonye dredde Salomon, and roos, and yede in to the tabernacle of the Lord, and helde the horn of the auter.
51 Wogblɔ na Solomo be, “Adoniya le vɔvɔ̃m na Fia Solomo eye wòle sitsoƒe dim le agbadɔ la me. Adoniya gblɔ be, ‘Mina Fia Solomo naka atam nam egbe be yematsɔ yi awu eƒe subɔla o.’”
And thei telden to Salomon, and seiden, Lo! Adonye dredith the kyng Salomon, and holdith the horn of the auter, and seith, Kyng Salomon swere to me to dai, that he schal not sle his seruaunt bi swerd.
52 Fia Solomo gblɔ be, “Ne elé eɖokui nyuie la, ame aɖeke mawɔ nuvevi aɖekee o, ke ne melé eɖokui nyuie o la, aku.”
And Salomon seide, If he is a good man, sotheli not oon heer of hym schal falle in to erthe; but if yuel be foundun in hym, he schal die.
53 Ale Fia Solomo na woyi ɖakplɔe tso vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ vɛ. Esi wòva ɖo la, ebɔbɔ, de ta agu le fia la ŋkume. Solomo gblɔ nɛ kpuie ko be, “Yi wò aƒe me!”
Therfor kyng Salomon sente, and ledde `hym out fro the auter; and he entride, and worschipide kyng Salomon; and Salomon seide to hym, Go in to thin hows.
