2 Sengihamba indlela yomhlaba wonke. Ngakho qina, ube yindoda,

3 ugcine imfanelo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ukuhamba ngezindlela zayo, ukugcina izimiso zayo, imithetho yayo, lezahlulelo zayo, lobufakazi bayo, njengokubhaliweyo emlayweni kaMozisi, ukuze uphumelele kukho konke okwenzayo, laloba ngaphi lapho ophendukela khona,

5 Futhi-ke wena uyakwazi ukuthi uJowabi indodana kaZeruya wenzani kimi, ukuthi wenzani kuzinduna ezimbili zamabutho akoIsrayeli, kuAbhineri indodana kaNeri, lakuAmasa indodana kaJetheri, owababulala wachitha igazi lempi ekuthuleni, wafaka igazi lempi ebhantini lakhe elalisekhalweni lwakhe lemanyathelweni asenyaweni zakhe.

8 Futhi khangela, kukhona kuwe uShimeyi indodana kaGera umBhenjamini weBahurimi, owangithuka ngesethuko esibuhlungu mhla ngisiya eMahanayimi; kodwa wehla ukungihlangabeza eJordani, ngasengifunga kuye ngeNkosi ngathi: Kangiyikukubulala ngenkemba.

and behold with you Shimei son: child Gera Benjaminite [the] Benjaminite from Bahurim and he/she/it to lighten me curse be sick in/on/with day to go: went I Mahanaim and he/she/it to go down to/for to encounter: meet me [the] Jordan and to swear to/for him in/on/with LORD to/for to say if: surely no to die you in/on/with sword

9 Ngakho-ke ungamyekeli abe ngongelacala, ngoba ungumuntu ohlakaniphileyo, ngoba uyakwazi ozakwenza kuye, njalo uzakwehlisela ikhanda lakhe eliyimpunga lilegazi engcwabeni. (Sheol h7585)

and to say Bathsheba Bathsheba pleasant I to speak: speak upon you to(wards) [the] king

19 Ngakho uBathisheba wasesiya enkosini uSolomoni ukukhulumela uAdonija kuyo. Inkosi yasisukuma ukumhlangabeza, yakhothama kuye, yahlala esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi, yathi kubekelwe unina wenkosi isihlalo sobukhosi; wasehlala ngakwesokunene sayo.

24 Ngakho-ke, kuphila kukaJehova ongimisileyo wangibeka esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida ubaba, wangenzela indlu njengokukhuluma kwakhe, isibili lamuhla uAdonija uzabulawa.

25 Inkosi uSolomoni yasithuma ngesandla sikaBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, owamsukelayo, wasesifa.

and to send: depart [the] king Solomon in/on/with hand: by Benaiah son: child Jehoiada and to fall on in/on/with him and to die

26 LakuAbhiyatha umpristi inkosi yathi: Yana eAnathothi emasimini akho, ngoba ungumuntu wokufa; kodwa lamuhla kangiyikukubulala ngoba wawuthwala umtshokotsho weNkosi uJehova phambi kukaDavida ubaba, langoba wahlupheka kukho konke ubaba ahlupheka ngakho.

27 Ngakho uSolomoni wamxotsha uAbhiyatha ekubeni ngumpristi weNkosi, ukugcwalisa ilizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma mayelana lendlu kaEli eShilo.

and to drive out: drive out Solomon [obj] Abiathar from to be priest to/for LORD to/for to fill [obj] word LORD which to speak: speak upon house: household Eli in/on/with Shiloh

28 Kwathi umbiko ufika kuJowabi, ngoba uJowabi wayephenduke walandela uAdonija lanxa wayengaphendukanga walandela uAbisalomu, uJowabi wabalekela ethenteni leNkosi, wabamba impondo zelathi.

and [the] tidings to come (in): come till Joab for Joab to stretch after Adonijah and after Absalom not to stretch and to flee Joab to(wards) tent LORD and to strengthen: hold in/on/with horn [the] altar

29 Kwasekubikelwa inkosi uSolomoni ukuthi uJowabi usebalekele ethenteni leNkosi, khangela-ke, useceleni kwelathi. USolomoni wasethuma uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada esithi: Hamba umsukele.

and to tell to/for king Solomon for to flee Joab to(wards) tent LORD and behold beside [the] altar and to send: depart Solomon [obj] Benaiah son: child Jehoiada to/for to say to go: went to fall on in/on/with him

30 Ngakho uBhenaya waya ethenteni leNkosi, wathi kuye: Itsho njalo inkosi: Phuma! Kodwa wathi: Hatshi, kodwa ngizafela lapha. UBhenaya wasebuyisela ilizwi enkosini, esithi: Utsho njalo uJowabi, ungiphendule njalo.

and to come (in): come Benaiah to(wards) tent LORD and to say to(wards) him thus to say [the] king to come out: come and to say not for here to die and to return: return Benaiah [obj] [the] king word to/for to say thus to speak: speak Joab and thus to answer me

31 Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Yenza njengokutsho kwakhe, umsukele, umngcwabe; ukuze ususe kimi lendlini kababa igazi elingelacala uJowabi alichithayo.

and to say to/for him [the] king to make: do like/as as which to speak: speak and to fall on in/on/with him and to bury him and to turn aside: remove blood for nothing which to pour: kill Joab from upon me and from upon house: household father my

32 Njalo iNkosi izabuyisela igazi lakhe ekhanda lakhe, owasukela amadoda amabili ayelungile engcono kulaye, wawabulala ngenkemba, ubaba uDavida engazi: UAbhineri indodana kaNeri induna yebutho lakoIsrayeli, loAmasa indodana kaJetheri induna yebutho lakoJuda.

33 Ngakho igazi labo lizabuyela ekhanda likaJowabi lekhanda lenzalo yakhe kuze kube nininini; kodwa kuDavida lenzalweni yakhe, lendlini yakhe, lembusweni wakhe, kuzakuba lokuthula kuze kube nininini okuvela eNkosini.

and to return: return blood their in/on/with head Joab and in/on/with head seed: children his to/for forever: enduring and to/for David and to/for seed: children his and to/for house: household his and to/for throne his to be peace till forever: enduring from from with LORD

34 UBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wasesenyuka, wamsukela wambulala; wasengcwatshelwa endlini yakhe enkangala.

and to ascend: rise Benaiah son: child Jehoiada and to fall on in/on/with him and to die him and to bury in/on/with house: home his in/on/with wilderness

35 Inkosi yasibeka uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada esikhundleni sakhe phezu kwebutho, loZadoki umpristi inkosi yambeka esikhundleni sikaAbhiyatha.

36 Inkosi yasithuma yabiza uShimeyi, yathi kuye: Zakhele indlu eJerusalema, uhlale khona, ungaphumi lapho uye ngaphi langaphi.

and to send: depart [the] king and to call: call to to/for Shimei and to say to/for him to build to/for you house: home in/on/with Jerusalem and to dwell there and not to come out: come from there where? and where?

37 Ngoba kuzakuthi mhla uphumayo, uchaphe isifula iKidroni, yazi lokwazi ukuthi uzakufa lokufa; igazi lakho lizakuba phezu kwekhanda lakho.

and to be in/on/with day to come out: come you and to pass [obj] torrent: valley Kidron to know to know for to die to die blood your to be in/on/with head your

38 UShimeyi wasesithi enkosini: Lelolizwi lihle; njengokutsho kwenkosi yami, inkosi, inceku yakho izakwenza njalo. UShimeyi wasehlala eJerusalema insuku ezinengi.

and to be from end three year and to flee two servant/slave to/for Shimei to(wards) Achish son: child Maacah king Gath and to tell to/for Shimei to/for to say behold servant/slave your in/on/with Gath

40 Wasesukuma uShimeyi, wabophela isihlalo kubabhemi wakhe, waya eGathi kuAkishi ukudinga inceku zakhe; uShimeyi wahamba waletha inceku zakhe zivela eGathi.

and to arise: rise Shimei and to saddle/tie [obj] donkey his and to go: went Gath [to] to(wards) Achish to/for to seek [obj] servant/slave his and to go: went Shimei and to come (in): bring [obj] servant/slave his from Gath

41 Kwasekubikelwa uSolomoni ukuthi uShimeyi wayesukile eJerusalema waya eGathi, njalo wabuyela.

and to tell to/for Solomon for to go: went Shimei from Jerusalem Gath and to return: return

42 Inkosi yasithuma yabiza uShimeyi yathi kuye: Kangikufungisanga yini ngeNkosi, ngafakaza kuwe ngathi: Mhla uphumayo ukuya ngaphi langaphi yazi lokwazi ukuthi uzakufa lokufa? Wasusithi kimi: Lihle ilizwi engilizwileyo.

and to send: depart [the] king and to call: call to to/for Shimei and to say to(wards) him not to swear you in/on/with LORD and to testify in/on/with you to/for to say in/on/with day to come out: come you and to go: went where? and where? to know to know for to die to die and to say to(wards) me pleasant [the] word: speaking to hear: obey

43 Pho, kungani ungasigcinanga isifungo seNkosi lomlayo engakulaya ngawo?

and why? not to keep: obey [obj] oath LORD and [obj] [the] commandment which to command upon you

44 Inkosi yasisithi kuShimeyi: Wena uyazi bonke ububi inhliziyo yakho ebaziyo owabenza kuDavida ubaba; ngakho iNkosi izabuyisela ububi bakho phezu kwekhanda lakho.

and to say [the] king to(wards) Shimei you(m. s.) to know [obj] all [the] distress: harm which to know heart your which to make: do to/for David father my and to return: return LORD [obj] distress: harm your in/on/with head your

45 Kodwa inkosi uSolomoni ibusisiwe, lesihlalo sobukhosi sikaDavida sizaqiniswa phambi kweNkosi kuze kube nininini.

and [the] king Solomon to bless and throne David to be to establish: establish to/for face: before LORD till forever: enduring

46 Ngakho inkosi yalaya uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, owaphuma wamsukela waze wafa. Ngakho umbuso waqiniswa esandleni sikaSolomoni.

and to command [the] king [obj] Benaiah son: child Jehoiada and to come out: come and to fall on in/on/with him and to die and [the] kingdom to establish: establish in/on/with hand: power Solomon
