1 Hagi Devitima fri kna'amo'ma egoftama nehigeno'a, amanage huno nemofo Solomonina asami'ne,

Now the time of David's death came near; and he gave orders to Solomon his son, saying,

2 Kofta hu'na nagra frigahue. Hagi ve mofavremo'ma nehiaza hunka oti hanavetinenka,

I am going the way of all the earth: so be strong and be a man;

3 Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamo'ma huoma hania zana nehunka, maka avu'ava'a avaririo. Hagi Mosese avontafepima krente'nea tra ke'ane, kasege'anema kegava hunka avaririsankeno'a, maka zama hanana zamo'ene, kama vanana kamo'a knare hugahie.

And keep the orders of the Lord your God, walking in his ways, keeping his laws and his orders and his rules and his words, as they are recorded in the law of Moses; so that you may do well in all you do and wherever you go,

4 Hagi ana'ma hanankeno'a Ra Anumzamo'ma huhamprinante'nea kemo'a nena raga regahie. Agra amanage huno hu'ne, Ne' mofavreka'amo'zama vahe'ma maniga kante nemaniza, maka zupa kazigazi hu'za miko tumozimireti'ene, zamagu zamenteti'ma hu'za navaririsazana Israeli vahete'ma kinima mani vahekura ohakegosazanki, kagri mofavre nagapinti mago zimimo kinia otitere hugahie huno nasami'ne.

So that the Lord may give effect to what he said of me, If your children give attention to their ways, living uprightly before me with all their heart and their soul, you will never be without a man to be king in Israel.

5 Hagi Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ma hunante'nea avu'avazamofo kea antahi'nane. Agra tare Israeli sondia kva netrena, Neri nemofo Abnane, Jeta nemofo Amasakigiznia zanahe fri'ne. Hagi anama zanahe'neana hapina ozanahe'neanki, fru hu'ne amne mani'na'a knafi zanaheno korazani'a eri tagi'nea koramo'a amu'nofimofone agia anomofonte me'ne.

Now you have knowledge of what Joab, the son of Zeruiah, did to me, and to the two captains of the army of Israel, Abner, the son of Ner, and Amasa, the son of Jether, whom he put to death, taking payment for the blood of war in time of peace, and making the band of my clothing and the shoes on my feet red with the blood of one put to death without cause.

6 Hagi kagra knare antahintahika'a avaririnka e'ina zantera nona hunto. Hagi atregeno amanea mani'neno ozafa reno rimpa frunena ofrino. (Sheol h7585)

So be guided by your wisdom, and let not his white head go down to the underworld in peace. (Sheol h7585)

7 Hagi Giliati ne' Basilai ne'mofavreramina zamatrege'za kagranema nezama nenaza traka'areti'ma nenaza naga'ene neho. Na'ankure negafu Absalomunkuma koro'ma fre'na nevugeno'a, zamagra knare zamavu'zamava nagrira hunante'naze.

But be good to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be guests at your table; for so they came to me when I went in flight from Absalom your brother.

8 Hagi Bahurimi kumateti Benzameni nagapinti ne' Gera nemofo Simeinkura kagera okanio. Agra Mahanaimi kumate'ma nevugeno'a kazusi ke hunanteno nazeri haviza hu'ne. Hianagi Jodani tinte'ma eme nege'na Ra Anumzamofo avufi huvempa hunte'na amanage hu'noe, Kahe ofrigosue hu'na hu'noe.

Now you have with you Shimei, the son of Gera the Benjamite of Bahurim, who put a bitter curse on me on the day when I went to Mahanaim; but he came down to see me at Jordan, and I gave him my oath by the Lord, saying, I will not put you to death by the sword.

9 Hianagi atregeno e'ina kemo'a hazenke'a erifrara okino. Hagi kagra knare antahintahika'a avaririnka e'ina zantera nona hunto. Hanki atregeno amanea mani'neno ozafa reno ofri'nianki, ahenka korama'a eri tagigeno frino. (Sheol h7585)

But do not let him be free from punishment, for you are a wise man; and it will be clear to you what you have to do with him; see that his white head goes down to the underworld in blood. (Sheol h7585)

10 Hagi anante Deviti'a frige'za agri rankumapi Jerusalemi asente'naze.

Then David went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David.

11 Hagi Deviti'a 40'a kafufi kinia mani'neno, Israeli vahera kegava hu'ne. Hagi ana 40'a kafuma mani'nefina 7ni'a kafua Hebroni maniteno, 33'a kafua Jerusalemi umani'ne.

David was king over Israel for forty years: for seven years he was king in Hebron and for thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

12 Hagi anama higeno'a Solomoni'a nefa nona erino Deviti kini tratera kinia mani'ne. Hagi Solomoni'a hankave kini ne' fore huno hanavenentake higeno magozamo'a azeri atregara osu'ne.

And Solomon took his place on the seat of David his father, and his kingdom was made safe and strong.

13 Mago zupa Hagiti ne'mofo Adoniza'a Solomoni nerera Batseba kenaku e'ne. Hagi anama egeno'a, Batseba'a amanage huno antahige'ne. Kagra knare kazigati ampi? huno higeno, Adoniza'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Knare naneke kasaminaku oe nehuno,

Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, came to Bath-sheba, the mother of Solomon. And she said, Come you in peace? And he said, Yes, in peace.

14 amanage hu'ne, Nagra mago'a ke kasaminaku e'noe, higeno Batseba'a amanage hu'ne, Huge'na antahi'neno huno hu'ne.

Then he said, I have something to say to you. And she said, Say on.

15 Higeno Adoniza'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra antahi'nane, esera mika Israeli vahe'mo'za nagriku kini manigahie hu'za hu'naze. Hianagi ana kini tramo'a ete nenafu azampi vigeno, nenagna kinia manie. Na'ankure ko Ra Anumzamo agri huhamprinte'ne.

And he said, You saw how the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had the idea that I would be their king; but now the kingdom is turned about, and has become my brother's, for it was given to him by the Lord.

16 Hanki nagra menina magoke zanku kantahigegahue. Muse hugantoanki ama ana keni'a antahinamio, higeno Batseba'a amanage huno hu'ne, Hugena antahineno huno hu'ne.

Now I have one request to make to you, and do not say, No, to me. And she said to him, Say on.

17 Anagema higeno'a Adoniza'a amanage huno asami'ne, Muse hugantoanki kini ne' Solomonina antahigegeno, Sunamiti a' Abisakina naminkena a' eri'neno. Na'ankure kagrama hananankea antahigahie.

Then he said, Will you go to Solomon the king (for he will not say, No, to you) and put before him my request that he will give me Abishag the Shunammite for a wife?

18 Higeno Batseba'a amanage huno asami'ne, Knareki'na kagri kea eri'na kini nera ome antahigegahue.

And Bath-sheba said, Good! I will make your request to the king.

19 Anage nehuno Batseba'a Adoniza agi erino Solomonina ome antahigenaku vu'ne. Hagi kini ne' Solomoni'ma Batsebama negeno'a, otino arena reno kepri nehuno, eri'za vahe'a kehige'za mago trara eri'za azantmaga kaziga eme antazageno, nerera'a ana trate mani'ne.

So Bath-sheba went to King Solomon to have talk with him on Adonijah's account. And the king got up to come to her, and went down low to the earth before her; then he took his place on the king's seat and had a seat made ready for the king's mother and she took her place at his right hand.

20 Hagi Batseba'a ana trate'ma maniteno'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra mago osi zanku kantahigegahue, hanki ana keni'a eri otrenka antahinamio. Anante kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne. Antanimoka amne nantahigo, na'ankure kagra antahi'nane, nagra keka'arera i'o hu'na osugahue.

Then she said, I have one small request to make to you; do not say, No, to me. And the king said, Say on, my mother, for I will not say, No, to you.

21 Hanki Batseba'a amanage hu'ne, Atregeno negafu Adoniza'a Sunemiti ara a' avrenteno.

And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother for a wife.

22 Anagema higeno'a kini ne' Solomoni'a amanage hu'ne, Nagafare Sunemiti ara Abisakina Adonizana amio hunka eme nantahinegane? E'ina'ma hunaku'ma hanunka fatgo hunka nantahigege'na atranenkeno nagri no erino kinia manino. Na'ankure agra nempuni'a manigeno agri kaziga pristi ne' Abiata'ene, Seruia nemofo Joapukea mani'na'e.

Then King Solomon made answer and said to his mother, Why are you requesting me to give Abishag the Shunammite to Adonijah? Take the kingdom for him in addition, for he is my older brother, and Abiathar the priest and Joab, the son of Zeruiah, are on his side.

23 Anage nehuno Solomoni'a Ra Anumzamofo avufi amanage huno huvempagea hu'ne. Adoniza'ma amanahu ke'ma hire'ma ahe ofrisugeno'a Anumzamo'a nagrira nahe frigahie!

Then King Solomon took an oath by the Lord, saying, May God's punishment be on me if Adonijah does not give payment for these words with his life.

24 E'ina hu'negu menina Ra Anumzamo'ma naza huno hankave naminege'na nenfa Deviti kini trate'ma nagri naga'ma huhampri'nea kante'ma ante'na kini tratera mani'ne'na mani vava Anumzamofo agifi huankino, Adoniza'a meninke frigahie.

Now by the living Lord, who has given me my place on the seat of David my father, and made me one of a line of kings, as he gave me his word, truly Adonijah will be put to death this day.

25 Anage nehuno kini ne' Solomoni'a Jehoiada nemofo Benaia huntegeno vuno, Adonizana ome ahegeno fri'ne.

And King Solomon sent Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and he made an attack on him and put him to death.

26 Hagi kini ne'mo'a pristi ne' Abiatana amanage huno asami'ne, kagra ete mopakarega Anatoti vuo. Hianagi menina kagrira kahe ofrigahue. Na'ankure kagra nenfa Deviti'ene mani'nenka Ra Anumzana hankavenentake Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisi e'nerinka, nenfa'ma hazenke knafima mani'negenka aza hunka nenfa knazana eri'nane.

And to Abiathar the priest the king said, Go to Anathoth, to your fields; for death would be your right reward; but I will not put you to death now, because you took up the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and you were with him in all his troubles.

27 E'inage nehuno kini ne'mo'a Ra Anumzamo'ma Sailo kumate Eli naga'ma kasnampa ke huzamante'nea kante anteno Abiatana pristi eri'zama'afintira ahenati'ne.

So Solomon let Abiathar be priest no longer, so that he might make the word of the Lord come true which he said about the sons of Eli in Shiloh.

28 Hagi Joapu'a Absalomu'ma kinima mani'naku'ma nehigeno'a agri'enena tragoteno mani'neno aza osu'ne. Hianagi Adoniza'ma kinima mani'zama nehigeno'a, Adoniza'ene ome tragoteno mani'neno aza hu'ne. E'ina hu'neankino Adonizama ahaza nanekema nentahino'a, freno vuno ruotge seli mono nompi Ra Anumzamofo kre sramnavu itare'ma me'nea pazivetaminte ome azeriteno mani'ne.

And news of this came to Joab; for Joab had been one of Adonijah's supporters, though he had not been on Absalom's side. Then Joab went in flight to the Tent of the Lord, and put his hands on the horns of the altar.

29 Hagi kini ne' Solomonina ome asami'za amanage hu'naze, Joapu'a freno vuno Ra Anumzamofo seli mono no kumapi kre sramnavu itare'ma me'nea pazivete ome azerintrako huteno mani'ne. Hagi ana nanekema nentahino'a Solomoni'a Jehoiada nemofo Benaia hunteno, Joapuna ome ahegeno frino!

And they said to King Solomon, Joab has gone in flight to the Tent of the Lord and is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, make an attack on him.

30 Anagema higeno'a Benaia'a Ra Anumzamofo seli nompi eazamo amanage huno Joapuna eme asami'ne, Kini ne'mo'a fegi atiramio huno hianki fegia atiramio. Hianagi Joapu'a amanage huno hu'ne, I'o nagra ama anante frigahue. Hagi agrama hia nanekea erino vuno Joapu'a anage hie huno kini nera ome asami'ne.

And Benaiah came to the Tent of the Lord and said to him, The king says, Come out. And he said, No; but let death come to me here. And Benaiah went back to the king and gave him word of the answer which Joab had given.

31 Kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Knareki agri ke avaririnka anante ome ahegeno frina asentegeno Joapu'ma hazenke'a omane vahe'ma zamahe'nea kanazamo'a tagritera omaneno.

And the king said, Do as he has said and make an attack on him there, and put his body into the earth; so that you may take away from me and from my family the blood of one put to death by Joab without cause.

32 Hagi hazenkezani omne netrema zanahe'nea zantera, Ra Anumzamo agrake Joapuna nona huntegahie. Na'ankure agra hazenkezni omne netre Israeli vahe sondia kva ne' Neri nemofo Abnane, Juda vahe sondia vahetaminte kva ne Jetari nemofo Amasanena nenfa'a keno antahino osu'negeno zanahe'ne.

And the Lord will send back his blood on his head, because of the attack he made on two men more upright and better than himself, putting them to the sword without my father's knowledge; even Abner, the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa, the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah.

33 E'ina hu'negu ana netremofo knazamo'a Joapunte'ene agripinti'ma forehu anante anante hu'zama vanaza vahepi mevava huno vugahie. Hianagi Devitinte'ene agripinti'ma forehu anante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'ene, naga'are'ene, kini tra'are mani'za esaza vahetera maka zupa Ra Anumzamofo arimpa fruzamo mevava huno vanie.

So their blood will be on the head of Joab, and on the head of his seed for ever; but for David and his seed and his family and the seat of his kingdom, there will be peace for ever from the Lord.

34 Hagi anante Jehoiada nemofo Benaia'a vuno ruotge seli mono nompi Joapuna ome ahe frigeno, avufa'a eri'za hagege kokampi noma'afinka ome asente'naze.

So Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, went up, and falling on him, put him to death; and his body was put to rest in his house in the waste land.

35 Hagi ana nehuno kini ne'mo'a Joapu nontera Benaiana azeri otigeno sondia vahetera ugota kva manigeno, pristi ne' Abiata nontera, Zadoki azeri otigeno pristia mani'ne.

And the king put Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, in his place over the army; and Zadok the priest he put in the place of Abiathar.

36 Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a Simeintega amanage huno kea atrente'ne, kagra Jerusalemi nona ome kinka manio. Hianagi ana kumapintira atrenka rurega vunka enka osutfa huo.

Then the king sent for Shimei, and said to him, Make a house for yourself in Jerusalem and keep there and go to no other place.

37 Hanki ana kuma'ma atrenka Kidroni kraho'ma agaterenka nevanunka, nagra frigahue hunka kagesa antahio. Hagi anama hunka kagrama frisankeno'a, fri'nana knazamo'a kagrite megahie.

For be certain that on the day when you go out and go over the stream Kidron, death will overtake you: and your blood will be on your head.

38 Hanki Simei'a amanage huno kini ne'mofo kerera hu'ne, kini nera nanekema refko'ma hunka ketenka hunantana kemo'a fatgo hianki'na rana kini nimokama hanankemofona, eri'za nekamo'na avaririgahue. Anage nehuno Simei'a zaza kna Jerusalemia mani'ne.

And Shimei said to the king, Very well! as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do. And for a long time Shimei went on living in Jerusalem.

39 Hianagi 3'a kafuma enevigeno'a, Simei eri'za netremokea atrene freke Gati kini ne' Maka nemofo Akisi'ene Gati kumate umani'na'e. Hagi Simeina mago'a vahe'mo'za asami'za, Eri'za neka'araremokea freke Gati kumate umani'na'e huza asamizageno,

But after three years, two of the servants of Shimei went in flight to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And word was given to Shimei that his servants had gone to Gath.

40 Simei'a tonki afu'a retro huteno agumpi marerino eri'za netrema'agu hakeno Gati kumate Akisinte vu'ne. Hagi ana eri'za netre'na ome zanageno, Gati kumatetira ete zanavreno e'ne.

Then Shimei got up, and making ready his ass, he went to Gath, to Achish, in search of his servants; and he sent and got them from Gath.

41 Hagi Simei'ma Jerusalemima atreno Gatima vuteno eankema Solomoni'ma nentahino'a,

And news was given to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had come back again.

42 kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kea atrente'ne, Nagra Ra Anumzamofo avufi huvempa hu'na Jerusalemi kuma'ma atrenka ru kumate'ma vanunka frigahane hu'na hu'noe. Hagi anagema hugenka, kagra amanage hu'nane, kini nera nanekema refko'ma hunka ketenka hunantana kemo'a fatgo hianki'na ana kemofo avaririgahue hu'nane.

Then the king sent for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not make you take an oath by the Lord, protesting to you and saying, Be certain that on the day when you go out from here, wherever you go, death will overtake you? and you said to me, Very well!

43 Hagi nahigenka Ra Anumzamofo avufima huvempama hunka avaririgahue hu'nana kea rutragenane?

Why then have you not kept the oath of the Lord and the order which I gave you?

44 Hagi kini ne'mo'a Simeinkura mago'ane amanage hu'ne, kefo kavukava'ma nenfa Devitima hunte'nana zana kagra'a antahi'nane. E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a ana knazamofo nona'a kagrira kazeri haviza hugahie.

And the king said to Shimei, You have knowledge of all the evil which you did to David my father; and now the Lord has sent back your evil on yourself.

45 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a nagrira asomu hunante'nigeno, Ra Anumzamofo avurera Deviti kini tramo'a agripintima fore hunante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahepi mevava huno vugahie.

But a blessing will be on King Solomon, and the kingdom of David will keep its place before the Lord for ever.

46 Ana huteno Jehoiada nemofo Benaia huntegeno, Simeina ome ahe fri'ne. Ana huteno Solomoni'a hankavenentake kini fore huno vahera kegava hu'ne.

So the king gave orders to Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada; and he went out and, falling on him, put him to death. And Solomon's authority over the kingdom was complete.
