1 Mpanjaka 1

1 Ary Davida mpanjaka dia efa zoki-olona sady nandroso fahanterana; ary norakofany lamba izy, fa tsy nety nafana.

And king David [is] old, entering into days, and they cover him with garments, and he hath no heat,

2 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.

and his servants say to him, 'Let them seek for my lord the king a young woman, a virgin, and she hath stood before the king, and is to him a companion, and hath lain in thy bosom, and my lord the king hath heat.'

3 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.

And they seek a fair young woman in all the border of Israel, and find Abishag the Shunammite, and bring her in to the king,

4 Ary tsara tarehy dia tsara tarehy razazavavy, dia tonga mpitaiza ny mpanjaka sady nanompo azy izy; nefa ny mpanjaka tsy nahalala azy.

and the young woman [is] very very fair, and she is to the king a companion, and serveth him, and the king hath not known her.

5 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.

And Adonijah son of Haggith is lifting himself up, saying, 'I do reign;' and he prepareth for himself a chariot and horsemen, and fifty men running before him,

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.

and his father hath not grieved him [all] his days, saying, 'Wherefore thus hast thou done?' and he also [is] of a very good form, and [his mother] bare him after Absalom.

7 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.

And his words are with Joab son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, and they help after Adonijah;

8 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.

and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty ones whom David hath, have not been with Adonijah.

9 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;

And Adonijah sacrificeth sheep and oxen and fatlings near the stone of Zoheleth, that [is] by En-Rogel, and calleth all his brethren, sons of the king, and for all the men of Judah, servants of the king;

10 fa Natana mpaminany sy Benaia sy ny lehilahy mahery ary Solomona rahalahiny no tsy mba nasainy.

and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty ones, and Solomon his brother, he hath not called.

11 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?

And Nathan speaketh unto Bath-Sheba, mother of Solomon, saying, 'Hast thou not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith hath reigned, and our lord David hath not known?

12 Koa etsy homeko saina ianao hamonjenao ny ainao sy ny ain’ i Solomona zanakao.

and now, come, let me counsel thee, I pray thee, and deliver thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon;

13 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?

go and enter in unto king David, and thou hast said unto him, Hast thou not, my lord, O king, sworn to thy handmaid, saying, Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne? and wherefore hath Adonijah reigned?

14 Ary raha mbola miteny amin’ ny mpanjaka ianao, dia, indro, izaho koa hiditra manaraka anao ka hanamarina ny teninao.

Lo, thou are yet speaking there with the king, and I come in after thee, and have completed thy words.'

15 Ary Batseba dia nankao amin’ ny mpanjaka tao amin’ ny efi-trano nitoerany; ary efa antitra ny mpanjaka; ary Abisaga Sonemita nanompo azy.

And Bath-Sheba cometh in unto the king, to the inner chamber, and the king [is] very aged, and Abishag the Shunammite is serving the king:

16 Dia niondrika Batseba ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Inona no ilainao?

and Bath-Sheba boweth and doth obeisance to the king, and the king saith, 'What — to thee?'

17 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.

And she saith to him, 'My lord, thou hast sworn by Jehovah thy God to thy handmaid: Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne;

18 Kanjo izao dia, indro, Adonia no manjaka; kanefa tsy fantatrao izany, ry mpanjaka tompoko.

and now, lo, Adonijah hath reigned, and now, my lord, O king, thou hast not known;

19 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.

and he sacrificeth ox, and fatling, and sheep in abundance, and calleth for all the sons of the king, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab head of the host — and for Solomon thy servant he hath not called.

20 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.

And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel [are] on thee, to declare to them who doth sit on the throne of my lord the king after him;

21 Fa rehefa lasa modi-mandry any amin’ ny razany ny mpanjaka tompoko, dia izaho sy Solomona zanako no atao meloka.

and it hath been, when my lord the king lieth with his fathers, that I have been, I and my son Solomon — [reckoned] sinners.'

22 Ary raha mbola niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka ravehivavy, dia, indro, niditra koa Natana mpaminany.

And lo, she is yet speaking with the king, and Nathan the prophet hath come in;

23 Ary nisy nanambara amin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Indro Natana mpaminany. Dia niditra teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy ka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehany.

and they declare to the king, saying, 'Lo, Nathan the prophet;' and he cometh in before the king, and boweth himself to the king, on his face to the earth.

24 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.

And Nathan saith, 'My lord, O king, thou hast said, Adonijah doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne;

25 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!

for he hath gone down to-day, and doth sacrifice ox, and fatling, and sheep, in abundance, and calleth for all the sons of the king, and for the heads of the host, and for Abiathar the priest, and lo, they are eating and drinking before him, and they say, Let king Adonijah live!

26 Fa izaho mpanomponao sy Zadoka mpisorona sy Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, ary Solomona mpanomponao ihany no tsy mba nasainy.

'And for me — me, thy servant, and for Zadok the priest, and for Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and for Solomon thy servant, he hath not called;

27 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?

if from my lord the king this thing hath been, then thou hast not caused thy servant to know who doth sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.'

28 Ary namaly Davida mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Antsoy hankatỳ amiko Batseba. Dia niditra nankeo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izy ka nitsangana teo anatrehany

And king David answereth and saith, 'Call for me for Bath-Sheba;' and she cometh in before the king, and standeth before the king.

29 Ary ny mpanjaka nianiana hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay namonjy ny aiko tamin’ ny fahoriana rehetra,

And the king sweareth and saith, 'Jehovah liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity;

30 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.

surely as I sware to thee by Jehovah, God of Israel, saying, Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne in my stead; surely so I do this day.'

31 Ary Batseba niondrika, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Ho velona mandrakizay anio Davida mpanjaka tompoko!

And Bath-Sheba boweth — face to the earth — and doth obeisance to the king, and saith, 'Let my lord, king David, live to the age.'

32 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.

And king David saith, 'Call for me for Zadok the priest, and for Nathan the prophet, and for Benaiah son of Jehoiada;' and they come in before the king.

33 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Ento miaraka aminareo ny mpanompon’ ny tomponareo, ary ampitaingeno ny ampondravaviko Solomona zanakolahy, ka ento midìna any Gihona izy.

And the king saith to them, 'Take with you the servants of your lord, and ye have caused Solomon my son to ride on mine own mule, and caused him to go down unto Gihon,

34 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!

and anointed him there hath Zadok the priest — and Nathan the prophet — for king over Israel, and ye have blown with a trumpet, and said, Let king Solomon live;

35 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.

and ye have come up after him, and he hath come in and hath sat on my throne, and he doth reign in my stead, and him I have appointed to be leader over Israel, and over Judah.'

36 Ary Benaja, zanak’ i Joiada, namaly ny mpanjaka hoe: Amena! Hiteny tahaka izany koa anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny mpanjaka tompoko.

And Benaiah son of Jehoiada answereth the king, and saith, 'Amen! so doth Jehovah, God of my lord the king, say;

37 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.

as Jehovah hath been with my lord the king, so is He with Solomon, and doth make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.'

38 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.

And Zadok the priest goeth down, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause Solomon to ride on the mule of king David, and cause him to go unto Gihon,

39 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!

and Zadok the priest taketh the horn of oil out of the tent, and anointeth Solomon, and they blow with a trumpet, and all the people say, 'Let king Solomon live.'

40 Dia niakatra nanaraka azy ny vahoaka rehetra ary nitsoka sodina sady nifaly dia nifaly, ka dia nihorohoro ny tany noho ny feony.

And all the people come up after him, and the people are piping with pipes, and rejoicing — great joy, and the earth rendeth with their voice.

41 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?

And Adonijah heareth, and all those called, who [are] with him, and they have finished to eat, and Joab heareth the noise of the trumpet, and saith, 'Wherefore [is] the noise of the city roaring?'

42 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.

He is yet speaking, and lo, Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest hath come in, and Adonijah saith, 'Come in, for a man of valour thou [art], and thou bearest good tidings.'

43 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.

And Jonathan answereth and saith to Adonijah, 'Verily our lord king David hath caused Solomon to reign,

44 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.

and the king sendeth with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause him to ride on the king's mule,

45 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.

and they anoint him — Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet — for king in Gihon, and are come up thence rejoicing, and the city is moved; it [is] the noise that ye have heard.

46 Ary koa, Solomona izao dia efa mipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakana.

'And also Solomon hath sat on the throne of the kingdom,

47 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

and also the servants of the king have come into bless our lord king David, saying, Thy God doth make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and his throne greater than thy throne; and the king boweth himself on the bed,

48 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.

and also thus hath the king said, Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who hath given to-day [one] sitting on my throne, and mine eyes seeing.'

49 Dia raiki-tahotra izay rehetra nasain’ i Adonia ka niainga, ary samy lasa nandeha amin’ izay nalehany avy izy rehetra.

And they tremble, and rise — all those called who [are] for Adonijah — and go, each on his way;

50 Ary Adonia koa natahotra an’ i Solomona, dia niainga ka lasa nangia ny tandroky ny alitara.

and Adonijah feareth because of Solomon, and riseth, and goeth, and layeth hold on the horns of the altar.

51 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.

And it is declared to Solomon, saying, 'Lo, Adonijah feareth king Solomon, and lo, he hath laid hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear to me as to-day — he doth not put to death his servant by the sword.'

52 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.

And Solomon saith, 'If he becometh a virtuous man — there doth not fall of his hair to the earth, and if evil is found in him — then he hath died.'

53 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.

And king Solomon sendeth, and they bring him down from off the altar, and he cometh in and boweth himself to king Solomon, and Solomon saith to him, 'Go to thy house.'
