3 Ha gagharịrị nʼala Izrel niile chọọ nwaagbọghọ mara mma, chọta otu nwaagbọghọ onye Shunem, aha ya bụ Abishag, kpọtaara ya eze.
Awo ne banoonya okubuna ensalo zonna eza Isirayiri omuwala omulungi, ne bazuula Abisaagi Omusunammu, ne bamuleetera kabaka.
4 Nwaagbọghọ a mara mma nke ukwuu; ọ lekọtakwara eze, jekwaara ya ozi ma ya na eze enweghị mmekọ ọbụla.
Omuwala oyo yali mulungi nnyo; n’ajjanjabanga kabaka era n’amuweerezanga, naye kabaka teyamumanya.
5 Nʼoge a, Adonaịja onye nne ya bụ Hagit, wepụtara onwe ya, kwuo sị, “Aga m abụ eze.” Nʼihi nke a, ọ kwadooro onwe ya ụgbọ agha na ọtụtụ ịnyịnya, kpọtakwa iri ndị ikom ise, ndị ga-agba ọsọ nʼihu ya.
Awo Adoniya mutabani wa Dawudi gwe yazaala mu Kaggisi ne yeegulumiza ng’ayogera nti, “Nze ndiba kabaka.” Ne yeetegekera amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi, n’abasajja amakumi ataano ab’ebigere okuddukiranga mu maaso ge.
6 Na ndụ Adonaịja niile, o nweghị oge nna ya baara ya mba site nʼịjụ ya, “Gịnị mere i ji akpa agwa dị otu a?” Ọ bụ nwokorobịa mara mma nke ukwuu; ọ bụ ya na-esotekwa nwanne ya Absalọm.

7 Adonaịja na Joab, nwa Zeruaya tinyere Abịata onye nchụaja, kparịtara ụka. Ha kwenyere inyere ya aka ka ọ ghọọ eze.
Adoniya yateesa ne Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya ne Abiyasaali kabona, ne baamuwagira.
8 Ma Zadọk onye nchụaja, Benaya nwa Jehoiada, Netan onye amụma, Shimei, Rei na ndị agha niile na-eche Devid nche esonyeghị Adonaịja.
Naye Zadooki kabona, ne Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada, ne Nasani nnabbi, ne Simeeyi, ne Leeyi, n’abasajja ba Dawudi ab’amaanyi abalala tebaali ku ludda lwa Adoniya.
9 Adonaịja chịịrị atụrụ, ehi na ụmụ ehi gbara abụba, gaa nʼakụkụ En-Rogel chụọ aja na Nkume Zohelet. Ọ kpọrọ ụmụnne ya niile bụ ụmụ ndị ikom eze na ndịisi Juda niile, ndị na-ejere eze ozi oku,

naye n’atayita Sulemaani muganda we wadde Nasani nnabbi, newaakubadde Benaya, newaakubadde abasajja ba Dawudi ab’amaanyi abalala.
11 Mgbe ahụ, Netan onye amụma jụrụ Batsheba nne Solomọn ajụjụ sị, “Ị nụghị na Adonaịja nwa Hagit aghọọla eze ugbu a, ma onyenwe anyị bụ Devid amaghị ihe ọbụla banyere ya?
Awo Nasani n’agenda eri Basuseba nnyina Sulemaani n’amugamba nti, “Towulidde nga Adoniya mutabani wa Kaggisi alidde obwakabaka, Dawudi mukama waffe nga takimanyi?
12 Ma ugbu a, ka m dụọ gị ọdụ otu ị ga-esi zọpụta ndụ gị na ndụ nwa gị Solomọn.
Kale nno kankuwe amagezi, owonye obulamu bwo n’obwa mutabani wo Sulemaani.

Genda eri Kabaka Dawudi, omugambe nti, ‘Mukama wange Kabaka, tewalayirira muzaana wo nti, Sulemaani mutabani wo y’alirya obwakabaka oluvannyuma lwange, era y’alituula ku ntebe yange ey’obwakabaka? Kale lwaki Adoniya alidde obwakabaka?’

Laba bw’onooba ng’okyayogera ne kabaka, nange nnaayingira ne nkakasa ebigambo byo.”
15 Batsheba bakwuuru eze nʼime ụlọ. Eze emeela nnọọ agadi nke ukwuu. Abishag onye Shunem nọkwa na-elekọta ya.
Awo Basuseba n’agenda eri Kabaka, mu kisenge kye, era Kabaka yali mukadde nnyo nga Abisaagi Omusunammu amuweereza.
16 Batsheba gburu ikpere nʼala, kpọọ isiala nye eze. Mgbe ahụ, eze jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị ka ị na-achọ?”
Basuseba n’akka n’afukamirira kabaka. Kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Nkukolere ki?”
17 Batsheba zara sị ya, “Onyenwe m, i jiri Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ṅụọrọ m iyi, kwee m nkwa sị na nwa m Solomọn ga-abụ eze, nọdụkwa nʼocheeze gị.
N’amuddamu nti, “Mukama wange, ggwe walayirira omuzaana wo eri Mukama Katonda wo nti, ‘Sulemaani mutabani wo y’alirya obwakabaka oluvannyuma lwange, era y’alituula ku ntebe yange ey’obwakabaka.’
18 Ma ugbu a, Adonaịja aghọọla eze, ma gị onyenwe m bụ eze amaghị ihe banyere nke a.
Naye kaakano Adoniya alidde obwakabaka, newaakubadde mukama wange kabaka, tokimanyi.

Bw’otookole bw’otyo, awo olulituuka, mukama wange kabaka bw’olyebakira awamu ne bajjajjaabo, nze ne mutabani wange Sulemaani tuliyitibwa babi.”
22 Mgbe Batsheba nọ na-akpanyere eze ụka, Netan onye amụma batara.
Awo bwe yali akyayogera ne kabaka, Nasani nnabbi n’ayingira.
23 A gwara eze okwu sị, “Netan onye amụma nọ nʼebe a.” Ya mere, ọ gara nʼihu eze kpọọ isiala nye ya.
Ne babuulira kabaka nti, “Nasani nnabbi ali wano.” Awo n’ayingira mu maaso ga kabaka, era n’avuunama amaaso ge mu maaso ga kabaka.

Olwa leero aserengese, era asse ente, n’ebyassava n’endiga nnyingi, era ayise abaana ba kabaka bonna n’abakulu b’eggye ne Abiyasaali kabona. Mu kiseera kino balya era banywera wamu naye, nga boogera nti, ‘Kabaka Adoniya awangaale!’
26 Ma ha akpọghị mụ bụ ohu gị na Zadọk, onye nchụaja, na Benaya nwa Jehoiada, na ohu gị bụ Solomọn.
Naye nze omuddu wo, ne Zadooki kabona, ne Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada n’omuddu wo Sulemaani, tatuyise.
27 Ọ bụ site nʼaka onyenwe m bụ eze ka ihe nke a siri mee, ma i meghị ka ndị ohu ya mata onye ga-anọdụ nʼocheeze onyenwe m eze, mgbe ọ nọghịkwa ya?”
Kino mukama wange kabaka, okikoze n’ototegeeza baweereza bo alituula ku ntebe ya mukama wange kabaka ey’obwakabaka, oluvannyuma lwe?”
28 Mgbe ahụ, Devid kwuru okwu sị, “Kpọọrọnụ m Batsheba.” Batsheba batara, guzo nʼihu eze.
Awo Kabaka Dawudi n’addamu nti, “Muyite Basuseba.” Basuseba n’ajja awali kabaka n’ayimirira mu maaso ge.
29 Mgbe ahụ, eze ṅụrụ iyi sị ya, “Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ, Onye ahụ napụtara m site na nsogbu m niile,
Awo kabaka n’alayira ng’ayogera nti, “Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu eyannunula mu buli kabi konna;

era nga bwe nakulayirira mu maaso ga Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri, Sulemaani mutabani wo y’alirya obwakabaka oluvannyuma lwange, era y’alituula ku ntebe yange ey’obwakabaka mu kifo kyange.”
31 Mgbe ahụ, Batsheba kpọrọ isiala, gbukwaa ikpere nʼihu eze sị ya, “Ka onyenwe m eze Devid dịrị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
Awo Basuseba n’avuunama ku ttaka mu maaso ga kabaka ng’agamba nti, “Mukama wange Kabaka Dawudi awangaale emirembe gyonna!”
32 Mgbe ahụ, Devid nyere iwu sị, “Kpọọrọ m Zadọk onye nchụaja, na Netan onye amụma, na Benaya, nwa Jehoiada.” Mgbe ha niile bịara nʼihu eze,
Kabaka Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Muyite Zadooki kabona, ne Nasani nnabbi ne Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada bayingire.” Bwe bajja mu maaso ga kabaka,
33 ọ sịrị ha, “Duru ndị ozi onyenwe unu, tinyere unu onwe unu, mee ka Solomọn nwa m nọkwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya muul nke mụ onwe m, kpọrọnụ ya gbada Gaihọn.
n’abagamba nti, “Mutwale abaweereza ba mukama wammwe, mwebagaze Sulemaani mutabani wange ennyumbu yange, mumuserengese e Gikoni.
34 Nʼebe ahụ, ka Zadọk onye nchụaja, na Netan onye amụma, tee ya mmanụ ịbụ eze Izrel. Fụkwaanụ opi, tiekwanụ mkpu sị, ‘Eze Solomọn ga-adị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’
Zadooki kabona ne Nasani nnabbi bamufukireko eyo amafuta okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri. Mufuuwe ekkondeere era muleekaane nti, ‘Kabaka Sulemaani awangaale.’
35 Mgbe ahụ, unu na ya ga-esokwa gbagota, ọ ga-abịa nọkwasị nʼocheeze m ịchị nʼọnọdụ m. Nʼihi na ọ bụ ya ka m họpụtara ịchị eze nʼIzrel na Juda.”
Mwambuke naye, atuule ku ntebe yange ey’obwakabaka era afuge mu kifo kyange. Mmufudde omukulembeze wa Isirayiri ne Yuda.”
36 Benaya nwa Jehoiada zara eze sị, “Amen, ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke onyenwe m na eze, kwupụta ya ka ọ dị otu a.
Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada n’addamu kabaka nti, “Amiina! Mukama Katonda wa mukama wange kabaka akituukirize.

Mukama nga bwe yabeeranga ne mukama wange kabaka, abeere ne Sulemaani okufuula entebe ye ey’obwakabaka ey’ekitiibwa n’okusinga entebe ey’obwakabaka eya mukama wange Kabaka Dawudi!”
38 Ya mere, Zadọk, onye nchụaja, na Netan onye amụma, na Benaya, nwa Jehoiada, na ndị Keret na ndị Pelet, duuru Solomọn mee ya ka ọ nọkwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya muul nke eze Devid. Emesịa, ha duuru ya gaa Gaihọn.
Awo Zadooki kabona, ne Nasani nnabbi ne Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada, n’Abakeresi n’Abaperesi ne beebagaza Sulemaani ennyumbu ya Kabaka Dawudi, ne baserengeta nga bamuwerekera okugenda e Gikoni.
39 Nʼebe ahụ, Zadọk onye nchụaja wepụtara mpi mmanụ ahụ dị nʼụlọ nzute Chineke, were tee Solomọn nʼisi. Ha fụkwara opi. Mgbe ahụ, ndị mmadụ niile tiri mkpu sị, “Ka eze Solomọn dịrị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
Zadooki kabona n’aggya ejjembe ery’amafuta mu weema, n’afuka amafuta ku Sulemaani. Awo ne bafuuwa ekkondeere, abantu bonna ne baleekaana mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Kabaka Sulemaani awangaale.”
40 Ndị Izrel niile sooro ya rigoo, na-afụ ọja na-aṅụrịkwa oke ọnụ, ruo nʼala mara jijiji nʼihi oke ụzụ.
Abantu bonna ne bambuka okumugoberera nga bafuuwa endere, era nga basanyuka essanyu lingi, ettaka n’okwatika ne lyatika olw’oluyoogaano olunene.
41 Adonaịja na ndị ọbịa ya niile nụrụ mkpu ọṅụ ahụ mgbe ha onwe ha na-erisi nri. Mgbe Joab nụrụ opi ike ka ọ na-ada, ọ jụrụ sị, “Gịnị mere oke ụzụ dị otu a ji na-ada nʼime obodo.”
Adoniya n’abagenyi be bonna ne bawulira oluyoogaano bwe baali nga bamaliriza okulya. Yowaabu bwe yawulira eddoboozi ly’ekkondeere, n’abuuza nti, “Ekibuga nga kiyoogaana?”
42 Ma mgbe ọ ka kpụ okwu ahụ nʼọnụ, lee Jonatan nwa Abịata onye nchụaja, ka ọ batara. Adonaịja sịrị, “Bata! Nʼihi na ị bụ ezi mmadụ amaara m na ọ bụ oziọma ka i ji bịa.”
Awo bwe yali ng’akyayogera laba, Yonasaani mutabani wa Abiyasaali kabona n’atuuka. Adoniya n’ayogera nti, “Yingira kubanga omusajja omulungi nga ggwe ateekwa kuba ng’aleese mawulire malungi.”
43 Jonatan zara ya sị, “Mba, ọ dịghị otu ahụ! Onyenwe anyị eze Devid emeela Solomọn eze.
Yonasaani n’addamu nti, “Nedda. Mukama waffe Kabaka Dawudi, obwakabaka abuwadde Sulemaani,
