I Na Lii 1

1 U A elemakule ae la o Davida ke alii, a ua nui kona mau makahiki, a uhi ae la lakou ia ia me na kapa, aole nae ia i mahana'e.

Now King David was old and far on in years; and though they put covers over him, his body was cold.

2 Nolaila, i olelo aku la kana mau kauwa ia ia, E imiia'ku kekahi wahine hou puupaa no kuu haku ke alii; a e ku oia ma ke alo o ke'lii, a e lilo ia i kahu nona, a e moe ia i kou poli, i mahana'e kuu haku ke alii.

So his servants said to him, Let search be made for a young virgin for my lord the king, to take care of him and be waiting on him; and you may take her in your arms, and so my lord the king will be warm.

3 Alaila imi hele ae la lakou i wahine hou maikai ma na aina a pau o ka Iseraela, a loaa ia lakou o Abisaga no Sunama, a alakai ae la lakou ia ia i ke alii.

So after searching through all the land of Israel for a fair young girl, they saw Abishag the Shunammite, and took her to the king.

4 He maikai loa hoi ua wahine la, a lilo ae la ia i kahu malama no ke alii, a lawelawe ae la oia nana, aole nae i ike ke alii ia ia.

Now she was very beautiful; and she took care of the king, waiting on him at all times; but the king had no connection with her.

5 Alaila o Adoniia ke keiki a Hagita i hookiekie ae ia ia iho, i iho la, E lilo au i alii: hoomakaukau ae la hoi ia i mau kaa me na kanaka hololio nona iho, a me na kanaka he kanalima e holo imua ona.

Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, lifting himself up in pride, said, I will become king; and he made ready his carriages of war and his horsemen, with fifty runners to go before him.

6 Aole hoi i hoonaukiuki ae kona makuakane ia ia i kekahi manawa, i ka ninau ana'e, No ke aha la oe i hana'i pela? a he maikai loa kona kino, a ua hanau ae la kona makuwahine ia ia mamuli iho o Abesaloma.

Now all his life his father had never gone against him or said to him, Why have you done so? and he was a very good-looking man, and younger than Absalom.

7 Kamailio ae la oia me Ioaba ke keiki a Zeruia, a me Abiatara ke kahuna, a kokua ae la laua mamuli o Adoniia.

And he had talk with Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest; and they were on his side and gave him their support.

8 Aka, o Zadoka, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Simei, a me Rei, a me ka poe kanaka koa o Davida, aole lakou me Adoniia.

But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet and Shimei and Rei, and David's men of war did not take the side of Adonijah.

9 Pepehi iho la o Adoniia i na hipa a me na bipi kauo, a me na bipi kupaluia, ma ka pohaku o Zoheleta, e pili ana i ka punawai Rogela, a kii aku la oia i kona mau hoahanau a pau, i na keiki a ke alii, a me na kanaka a pau o Iuda na kauwa a ke alii.

Then Adonijah put to death sheep and oxen and fat beasts by the stone of Zoheleth, by En-rogel; and he sent for all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants, to come to him:

10 Aka, o Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia, a me na kanaka koa, a me Solomona kona kaikaina, kana i kii ole aku ai.

But he did not send for Nathan the prophet and Benaiah and the other men of war and Solomon his brother.

11 Nolaila olelo ae la o Natana ia Bateseba i ka makuwahine o Solomona, i ae la, aole anei oe i lohe e alii ana o Adoniia, ke keiki a Hagita, aole hoi i ike ke kakou haku o Davida.

Then Nathan said to Bath-sheba, the mother of Solomon, Has it not come to your ears that Adonijah, the son of Haggith, has made himself king without the knowledge of David our lord?

12 Ano hoi ea, e ao aku au ia oe, i hiki ia oe ke malama i kou ola nei, a me ke ola o kau keiki o Solomona.

So now, let me make a suggestion, so that you may keep your life safe and the life of your son Solomon.

13 E hele oe a e komo aku i ke alii Davida, a e olelo aku ia ia, Aole anei oe i hoohiki up kau kauwawahine, e kuu haku ke alii, i ka i ana mai, Oiaio e alii ana o Solomona o kau keiki mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii? No ke aha la hoi e alii nei o Adoniia?

Come now, go to King David and say to him, Did you not, O my lord, take an oath to me, your servant, saying, Truly Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom? why then is Adonijah acting as king?

14 Aia hoi, i kou kamailio ana malaila me ke alii, owau no kekahi e komo ae mamuli ou e hooiaio i kau mau olelo.

And while you are still talking there with the king, see, I will come in after you and say that your story is true.

15 Alaila komo ae la o Bateseba i ke alii i kona keena, he elemakule loa ke alii; a malama ae la o Abisaga no Sunama i ke alii.

Then Bath-sheba went into the king's room; now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was waiting on him.

16 Kulou iho la o Bateseba, me ka hoomaikai aku i ke alii. I mai la hoi ke alii, He aha kau?

And Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour. And he said, What is your desire?

17 I aku la hoi oia ia ia, E kuu haku, ua hoohiki oe ma o Iehova la kou Akua no kau kauwawahine, Oiaio e alii no Solomona kau keiki mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii.

And she said to him, My lord, you took an oath by the Lord your God and gave your word to your servant, saying, Truly, Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom.

18 Aia hoi, ano, e alii ana o Adoniia, eia hoi, e kuu Haku ke alii, aole oe i ike.

And now, see, Adonijah has made himself king without my lord's knowledge;

19 Ua pepehi ae la oia i na bipi kauo, a me na bipi kupaluia, a me na hipa he nui, a ua kii ae hoi oia i na keiki a pau a ke alii a me Abiatara ke kahuna, a me Ioaba ka luna o ka poe koa, aka, o Solomona kau kauwa, kana i kii ole aku ai.

And has put to death oxen and fat beasts and sheep in great numbers, and has sent for all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab, the captain of the army; but he has not sent for Solomon your servant.

20 A o oe, e kuu haku ke alii, ke kau nei na maka o ka Iseraela a pau maluna ou, e hai aku oe ia lakou i ka mea e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii, mahope iho ona.

And now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, waiting for you to say who is to take the place of my lord the king after him.

21 A i ole ia, eia paha, aia hiamoe kuu haku ke alii me kona mau makua, alaila e kapaia auanei maua me ka'u keiki Solomona he mau mea hewa.

For as things are, it will come about, when my lord the king is sleeping with his fathers, that I and Solomon my son will be made outlaws.

22 Aia hoi, i kona kamailio ana me ke alii, komo ae la o Natana ke kaula.

And while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

23 Hai aku la lakou i ke alii, i aku la, Eia'e, o Natana ke kaula. A komo ia imua i ke alo o ke alii, kulou iho la ia imua o ke alii ilalo kona alo i ka honua.

And they said to the king, Here is Nathan the prophet. And when he came in before the king, he went down on his face on the earth.

24 I aku la hoi o Natana, E kuu haku ke alii, ua olelo anei oe, E alii ana o Adoniia mahope iho o'u. a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii?

And Nathan said, O my lord king, have you said, Adonijah is to be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom?

25 No ka mea, ua iho aku oia i keia la a ua pepehi i na bipi kauo a me na bipi kupaluia, a me na hipa, he nui loa, a ua hea aku oia i na keiki a pau a ke alii, a me na luna o ka poe koa, a me Abiatara, ke kahuna, aia hoi, ke ai nei lakou ke inu nei hoi imua ona, me ka olelo aku, E ola ke alii, o Adoniia.

Because today he has gone down and has put to death oxen and fat beasts and sheep in great numbers, and has sent for all the king's sons to come to him, with the captains of the army and Abiathar the priest; and they are feasting before him and crying, Long life to King Adonijah!

26 Aka, owau nei, owau o kau kauwa nei, a me Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me Solomona kau kauwa kana i kahea ole mai ai.

But me, your servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon, he has not sent for.

27 Ua hanaia anei keia mea e kuu haku ke alii, aole hoi oe i hoike mai i kau kauwa nei, i ka mea e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii mahope iho ona?

Has this thing been done by my lord the king, without giving word to your servants who was to be placed on my lord the king's seat after him?

28 Alaila olelo mai la ke alii Davida, i mai la, E kahea aku ia Bateseba io'u nei. A hele mai ia imua i ke alo o ke alii, a ku iho la ia imua o ke alii.

Then King David in answer said, Send for Bath-sheba to come to me. And she came in and took her place before the king.

29 Hoohiki iho la ke alii, i mai la, Ma ke ola o Iehova, ka mea nana kuu uhane i hoopakele ae mailoko ae o ka popilikia a pau,

And the king took an oath, and said, By the living Lord, who has been my saviour from all my troubles,

30 E like me ko'u hoohiki ana nou, ma o Iehova la ke Akua o Iseraela, peneia, Oiaio, e alii ana no o Solomona kau keiki, mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii, ma ko'u hakahaka; pela io no wau e hana aku ai i keia la.

As I took an oath to you by the Lord, the God of Israel, saying, Certainly Solomon your son will become king after me, seated on my seat in my place; so will I do this day.

31 Alaila kulou iho la o Bateseba ilalo ke alo i ka honua, a hoomaikai aku la i ke alii, me ka olelo aku, E ola mau loa kuu haku ke alii Davida.

Then Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour, and said, May my lord King David go on living for ever.

32 I mai la hoi ke alii Davida, E kahea aku ia Zadoka io'u nei ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada. A hele mai la lakou imua i ke alo o ke alii.

And King David said, Send for Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

33 I mai la hoi ke alii ia lakou, E lawe pu me oukou i na kauwa a ko oukou haku, a e hooholo ia Solomona ka'u keiki maluna iho o kuu hoki, a e lawe ia ia i Gihona.

And the king said to them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and put Solomon my son on my beast, yes, mine, and take him down to Gihon;

34 A na Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula ia e poni i alii maluna o ka Iseraela: e hookani oukou i ka pu, a e olelo aku, E ola ke alii Solomona.

And there let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him to make him king over Israel; and sounding the horn say, Long life to King Solomon!

35 Alaila e hele mai oukou mamuli ona, i hele mai oia e noho maluna o ko'u nohoalii; no ka mea, e lilo oia i alii ma ko'u hakahaka, a ua hoomaopopo ae nei au ia ia i alii maluna o Iseraela a maluna hoi o Iuda.

Then come up after him and he will come in and take his place on the seat of my kingdom; for he is to be king in my place, and I have given orders that he is to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

36 Alaila olelo aku la o Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada i ke alii, i aku la, Amene; a e olelo hoi pela Iehova ke Akua o kuu haku ke alii.

And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, answering the king, said, So be it: and may the Lord, the God of my lord the king, say so.

37 Me Iehova i noho pu ai me kuu haku ke alii, pela e noho pu ai oia me Solomona, a e hoonui ae i kona nohoalii i ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii Davida.

As the Lord has been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon and make the seat of his authority greater than that of my lord King David.

38 Alaila hele aku la Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me na Kereta a me na Pelita a hooholo lakou ia Solomona maluna o ka hoki o ke alii o Davida, a lawe ae la lakou ia ia i Gihona.

So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down and put Solomon on King David's beast and took him to Gihon.

39 Lawe ae la o Zadoka ke kahuna i ka pepeiaohao aila mailoko ae o ka halelewa, a poni ae la ia Solomona. A hookani ae la lakou i ka pu; i ae la hoi na kanaka a pau, E ola ke alii Solomona.

And Zadok the priest took the vessel of oil out of the Tent, and put the holy oil on Solomon. And when the horn was sounded, all the people said, Long life to King Solomon!

40 A hoi mai la na kanaka a pau mamuli ona, hookiokio ae la na kanaka me na ohe, a hauoli ae la lakou me ka olioli nui, a haalulu ae la ka honua i ko lakou leo.

And all the people came up after him, piping with pipes, and they were glad with great joy, so that the earth was shaking with the sound.

41 Lohe ae la hoi o Adoniia a me na hoaai a pau me ia, i ka pau ana o ka lakou ahaaina. A lohe o Ioaba i ke kani ana o ka pu, i ae la ia, No ke aha la keia walaau ana o ke kulanakauhale haunaele?

And it came to the ears of Adonijah and all the guests who were with him, when their meal was ended. And Joab, hearing the sound of the horn, said, What is the reason of this noise as if the town was worked up?

42 A i kana olelo ana, aia hoi, hiki ae la o Ionatana ke keiki a Abiatara, ke kahuna: i mai la o Adoniia ia ia, E komo mai oe, no ka mea, he kanaka ikaika no oe, a ke lawe mai nei oe i ka olelo maikai.

And while the words were on his lips, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, came; and Adonijah said, Come in; for you are a man of good faith and the news which you have for us will be good.

43 Alaila olelo ae la o Ionatana, i ae la ia Adoniia, Oiaio, ua hoolilo ae nei ko kakou haku ke alii o Davida ia Solomona i alii.

And Jonathan, answering, said to Adonijah, Not so, but our lord King David has made Solomon king:

44 A ua hoouna ke alii me ia ia Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me na Kereta, a me na Pelita, a ua hooholo lakou ia ia maluna o ka hoki a ke alii.

And he sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they put him on the king's beast:

45 A ua poni ae la o Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula ia ia i alii ma Gihona, a ua hoi mai lakou mailaila mai e hauoli ana, i halulu ai ke kulanakauhale. Oia ka walaau a oukou i lohe ai.

And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him and made him king in Gihon; and they came back from there with joy, and the town was all worked up. This is the noise which has come to your ears.

46 Ke noho nei no hoi o Solomona maluna o ka nohoalii o ke aupuni.

And now Solomon is seated on the seat of the kingdom.

47 A ua hele mai hoi na kauwa a ke alii e hoomaikai i ko kakou haku ke alii Davida, e i ana, E hoonui ke Akua i ka maikai o ka inoa o Solomona i kou inoa, a e hoopakela i kona nohoalii mamua o kou nohoalii. A kulou iho ke alii maluna iho o kona wahi moe.

And the king's servants came to our lord King David, blessing him and saying, May God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and the seat of his authority greater than your seat; and the king was bent low in worship on his bed.

48 Peneia hoi i olelo mai ai ke alii, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela ka mea nana i haawi mai i keia la e noho kekahi maluna o ko'u nohoalii, a e ike ana hoi kuu mau maka.

Then the king said, May the God of Israel be praised, who has given one of my seed to be king in my place this day and has let my eyes see it.

49 Makau iho la na hoaai a pau na mea me Adoniia, ku ae la lakou a hele kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona wahi e hele ai.

And all the guests of Adonijah got up in fear and went away, every man to his place.

50 Makau iho la hoi o Adoniia imua o Solomona, ku ae la ia, a hele aku, a lalau ae la i na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu.

And Adonijah himself was full of fear because of Solomon; and he got up and went to the altar, and put his hands on its horns.

51 Ua haiia mai ia Solomona peneia, Aia hoi, ke makau mai nei o Adoniia i ke alii ia Solomona, no ka mea, ea, ua lalau oia i na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu, e olelo ana, E hoohiki ke alii Solomona no'u i keia la, aole ia e pepehi mai i kana kauwa me ka pahikaua.

And they gave Solomon word of it, saying, See, Adonijah goes in such fear of King Solomon, that he has put his hands on the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon first give me his oath that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.

52 Olelo mai la hoi o Solomona, Ina e hoike oia ia ia iho he kanaka hoopono, aole e haule i ka honua kekahi oho ona, aka, ina i loaa ka hewa iloko ona, e make no ia.

And Solomon said, If he is seen to be a man of good faith, not a hair of him will be touched; but if any wrongdoing is seen in him, he is to be put to death.

53 Alaila hoouna ae la ke alii Solomona, a lawe mai lakou ia ia mailuna mai o ke kuahu. Hele mai la ia a kulou iho la i ke alii ia Solomona, a olelo mai la Solomona ia ia, E hele oe i kou hale.

So King Solomon sent, and they took him down from the altar. And he came and gave honour to King Solomon; and Solomon said to him, Go to your house.
