Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na ũndũ ngũkwĩra.” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Njĩĩra.”
15 Iye akati, “Sezvamunoziva, umambo hwaiva hwangu. VaIsraeri vose vaitarisira kuti ndichatonga. Asi zvinhu zvakashanduka, umambo hukaenda kumununʼuna wangu; nokuti hwakava hwake nokuda kwaJehovha.
Agĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “O ta ũrĩa wee ũũĩ-rĩ, ũthamaki ũyũ warĩ wakwa. Andũ a Isiraeli othe nĩ niĩ meetagĩrĩra nduĩke mũthamaki wao. No maũndũ makĩgarũrũka, naguo ũthamaki nĩũthiĩte kũrĩ mũrũ wa Baba; tondũ ũheanĩtwo kũrĩ we nĩ Jehova.

17 Saka akaenderera mberi akati, “Ndapota, kumbirai Mambo Soromoni, haambokurambirai, kuti andipe Abhishagi muShunami, ave mukadzi wangu.”
Agĩthiĩ na mbere, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩtĩkĩra kũũria Mũthamaki Solomoni, nĩ ũndũ wee ndangĩkũregera, aahe Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
18 Bhatishebha akapindura akati, “Zvakanaka, ndichandosuma nyaya iyi kuna mambo.”
Bathisheba agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega, nĩ ngũkwarĩrĩria harĩ mũthamaki.”
19 Naizvozvo Bhatishebha akaenda kuna Mambo Soromoni kundosuma nyaya yaAdhoniya. Mambo akasimuka akasangana naye, akakotamira mai vake, akagara pachigaro chake choushe. Akarayira kuti chigaro choushe chiunzirwe mai vamambo, ivo vakagara kurutivi rwake rworudyi.
Rĩrĩa Bathisheba aathiire kũrĩ Mũthamaki Solomoni akamũhe ũhoro wa Adonija-rĩ, mũthamaki agĩũkĩra na igũrũ akĩmũtũnga, akĩmũinamĩrĩra, na agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene. Akĩrehithĩria nyina gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, nake nyina akĩmũikara guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo.
20 Ipapo vakati, “Ndine chikumbiro chidiki kwauri. Usandirambira zvako.” Mambo akapindura akati, “Kumbirai henyu, mai, handikurambiriyi.”
Nake nyina akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na kaũndũ kanini ngwenda gũkũhooya, na ndũkae kũrega.” Mũthamaki akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maitũ, ũria ndikũrega.”
21 Ivo vakati, “Adhoniya mukoma wako, ngaapiwe Abhishagi muShunami, ave mukadzi wake.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nyina akiuga atĩrĩ, “Reke Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami ahikio nĩ mũrũ wa thoguo Adonija.”
22 Mambo Soromoni akapindura mai vake akati, “Sei muchikumbirira Adhoniya, Abhishagi muShunami? Mungatomukumbirirawo umambo, zvaari mukoma wangu, mumukumbirire iye naAbhiatari muprista, naJoabhu mwanakomana waZeruya.”
Mũthamaki Solomoni akĩĩra nyina atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ũrie Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami ahikio nĩ Adonija? Ndũkĩmũũrĩrie ũthamaki o naguo, o na ti we ũkĩrĩ mũkũrũ kũrĩ niĩ, ĩĩ-ni, ũgĩtuĩke wake, na wa Abiatharu ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai na wa Joabu mũrũ wa Zeruia!”
23 Zvino Mambo Soromoni akapika naJehovha akati, “Mwari ngaandirange zvakaomarara kana Adhoniya akasaripa chikumbiro ichi noupenyu hwake!
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũthamaki Solomoni akĩĩhĩta na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, akiuga ũũ: “Ngai arooherithia o na anjĩhĩre mũno, aakorwo Adonija ndekũrĩha na muoyo wake nĩ ũndũ wa ũndũ ũcio orĩtie!
24 Zvino kana Jehovha wangu ari mupenyu, uyo akandisimbisa zvakakwana pachigaro choushe chababa vangu Dhavhidhi, akandigadzirira umambo sezvaakavimbisa, Adhoniya achaurayiwa nhasi.”
Na rĩrĩ, ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, o we ũtũmĩte ngaacĩre ũthamaki-inĩ wa baba, Daudi, na agetĩkĩra nduĩke wa rũciaro rwa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, o ta ũrĩa eranĩire-rĩ, Adonija no ekũũragwo ũmũthĩ!”
25 Naizvozvo Mambo Soromoni akatuma Bhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha, iye akamuuraya.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mũthamaki Solomoni agĩatha Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada, nake agĩthiĩ akĩgũtha Adonija, akĩmũũraga.
26 Mambo akati kuna Abhiatari muprista, “Dzokera kuAnatoti, kunyika yako. Unofanira kufa. Asi handisi kuzokuuraya iye zvino, nokuti wakatakura areka yaJehovha Mwari pamberi pababa vangu Dhavhidhi ukatambudzika navo pamatambudziko avo ose.”
Mũthamaki akĩĩra Abiatharu ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai atĩrĩ, “Cooka mũgũnda-inĩ gwaku kũu Anathothu. Wee wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkua, no ndigũkũũraga rĩu, tondũ nĩwakuuaga ithandũkũ rĩa Mwathani Jehova hĩndĩ ya baba Daudi, na nĩwagwatanĩire na baba moritũ-inĩ make mothe.”
27 Naizvozvo Soromoni akabvisa Abhiatari pauprista hwaJehovha, akazadzisa shoko rakanga rataurwa naJehovha paShiro pamusoro peimba yaEri.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Solomoni akĩeheria Abiatharu atige gũtuĩka mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wa Jehova, nakĩo kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa aarĩirie kũu Shilo, gĩkoniĩ nyũmba ya Eli, gĩkĩhinga.
28 Zvino shoko iri rakati rasvika kuna Joabhu, uyo akanga aita rangano naAdhoniya asi kwete naAbhusaromu, iye akatizira kutende raJehovha akandobata nyanga dzearitari.
Rĩrĩa ũhoro ũcio wakinyĩire Joabu, ũrĩa waciirĩire gwĩka ũũru marĩ na Adonija, o na gũtuĩka ndaanyiitanĩire na Abisalomu, akĩũrĩra hema-inĩ ya Jehova na akĩĩnyiitĩrĩra hĩa cia kĩgongona.
29 Mambo Soromoni akaudzwa kuti Joabhu akanga atizira kutende raJehovha uye kuti akanga ari paaritari. Ipapo Soromoni akarayira Bhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha akati, “Enda undomuuraya!”
Mũthamaki Solomoni akĩĩrwo atĩ Joabu orĩire hema-inĩ ya Jehova na aarĩ hakuhĩ na kĩgongona. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Solomoni agĩatha Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ, ũmũũrage!”
30 Saka Bhenaya akapinda mutende raJehovha akati kuna Joabhu, “Zvanzi namambo, ‘Buda.’” Asi iye akapindura akati, “Kwete, ndichafira pano.” Bhenaya akandoti kuna mambo, “Aya ndiwo mapindurirwo andaitwa naJoabhu.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Benaia akĩingĩra hema ĩyo ya Jehova akĩĩra Joabu atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki oiga atĩrĩ, ‘Uma na nja!’” No Joabu agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Aca, ngũkuĩra haha.” Benaia agĩcookeria mũthamaki ũhoro, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Joabu anjĩĩra ũna na ũna.”
31 Ipapo mambo akarayira Bhenaya akati, “Ita sezvaareva. Muuraye ugomuviga, naizvozvo undichenese pamwe chete neimba yababa vangu pamhosva yeropa rakateurwa naJoabhu rakanga risina mhosva.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩatha Benaia, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩka o ũguo oiga. Mũũrage na ũmũthike, nĩgeetha niĩ na nyũmba ya baba tũthirwo nĩ ihĩtia rĩa thakame ĩrĩa yaitirwo tũhũ nĩ Joabu.
32 Jehovha achadzorera ropa rake pamusoro wake, nokuti akauraya varume vaviri vakanga vakarurama kupfuura iye, vakanga vari nani pana iye, akavauraya nomunondo, baba vangu Dhavhidhi vasingazvizivi, Abhuna mwanakomana waNeri, mutungamiri wehondo yeIsraeri naAmasa mwanakomana waJeteri, mutungamiri wehondo yeJudha.
Jehova nĩegũtũma acookererwo nĩ thakame ĩrĩa aaitire, tondũ nĩatharĩkĩire andũ eerĩ, na akĩmooraga na rũhiũ rwa njora, baba Daudi atooĩ akĩmooraga marĩ eerĩ, Abineri mũrũ wa Neri, ũrĩa warĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita cia Isiraeli, na Amasa mũrũ wa Jetheri, ũrĩa warĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita cia Juda, nao maarĩ andũ ega na arũngĩrĩru kũmũkĩra.
33 Ropa ravo ngaridzokere pamusoro waJoabhu, napamusoro pemhuri yake nokusingaperi. Asi rugare runobva kuna Jehovha ngaruve pana Dhavhidhi, naparudzi rwake, napaimba yake, napachigaro chake choushe nokusingaperi.”
Ihĩtia rĩu rĩa gũita thakame yao rĩrocookerera Joabu na njiaro ciake nginya tene. No kũrĩ Daudi na njiaro ciake, na nyũmba yake na ũthamaki wake, thayũ wa Jehova ũrogĩa kũrĩ o nginya tene.”
34 Naizvozvo Bhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha akaenda akandouraya Joabhu, akavigwa muguva rake murenje.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada agĩthiĩ akĩgũtha Joabu akĩmũũraga, nake agĩthikwo mũgũnda-inĩ wake kũu werũ-inĩ.
35 Zvino mambo akagadza Bhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha somukuru wehondo panzvimbo yaJoabhu, uye akagadza Zadhoki somuprista panzvimbo yaAbhiatari.
Mũthamaki akĩnenehia Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada akĩmũtua mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita handũ ha Joabu, na agĩcookia Zadoku atuĩke mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ithenya rĩa Abiatharu.
36 Ipapo mambo akatuma munhu kuti andodana Shimei akati kwaari, “Zvivakire imba muJerusarema uye ugogaramo, asi usaenda kumwe kunhu.
Ningĩ mũthamaki agĩtũmana Shimei eetwo, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩakĩre nyũmba Jerusalemu na ũtũũre kuo, no ndũkanathiĩ kũndũ kũngĩ.
37 Musi waunobvamo uchiyambuka Rukova rweKidhironi, ziva kuti uchafa; ropa rako richava pamusoro pako.”
Mũthenya ũrĩa ũkoima kuo ũringe Mũkuru wa Kidironi, ũmenye wega no ũgaakua; nayo thakame yaku nĩĩgagũcookerera wee mwene.”
38 Shimei akapindura mambo akati, “Zvamataura zvakanaka. Muranda wenyu achaita sezvataurwa naishe wangu mambo.” Naizvozvo Shimei akagara muJerusarema kwenguva yakareba.
Shimei agĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Ũguo woiga nĩ wega. Ndungata yaku nĩĩgwĩka o ta ũrĩa mũthamaki mwathi wakwa oiga.” Nake Shimei agĩikara Jerusalemu ihinda iraaya.
39 Asi mushure mamakore matatu, varanda vaShimei vaviri vakatiza vakaenda kuna Akishi mwanakomana waMaaka, mambo weGati, Shimei akaudzwa kuti, “Varanda vako vari kuGati.”
No mĩaka ĩtatũ yathira-rĩ, ngombo igĩrĩ cia Shimei ikĩũra igĩthiĩ kwa Akishi, mũrũ wa Maaka, mũthamaki wa Gathu, nake Shimei akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Ngombo ciaku irĩ Gathu.”
40 Ipapo akasungira chigaro pambongoro yake akaenda kuna Akishi kuGati kundotsvaga varanda vake. Naizvozvo Shimei akaenda akandotora varanda vake kubva kuGati.
Kũigua ũguo-rĩ, Shimei agĩtandĩka ndigiri yake, agĩthiĩ kwa Akishi kũu Gathu gwetha ngombo ciake. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Shimei agĩthiĩ na agĩcookia ngombo ciake kuuma Gathu.
41 Soromoni akati audzwa kuti Shimei akanga abuda muJerusarema akaenda kuGati uye kuti akanga adzoka,
Rĩrĩa Solomoni eerirwo atĩ Shimei nĩoimĩte Jerusalemu agathiĩ Gathu na agacooka-rĩ,
42 Mambo akadana Shimei akati kwaari, “Handina here kukupikisa naJehovha ndikakuyambira ndichiti, ‘Nomusi wauchabva uchienda kumwe, ziva kuti uchafa.’ Panguva iyoyo wakati kwandiri, ‘Zvamataura zvakanaka. Ndichateerera.’
mũthamaki agĩtũmanĩra Shimei, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ndiakwĩhĩtithirie na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova na ngĩgũkaania, ngĩkwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mũthenya ũrĩa ũkoimagara ũthiĩ handũ hangĩ, ũmenye kũna no ũgaakua’? Nawe hĩndĩ ĩyo ũkĩnjookeria atĩrĩ, ‘Ũguo woiga nĩ wega. Niĩ nĩngwathĩka.’
43 Zvino sei usina kuchengeta mhiko yako kuna Jehovha nokutevera mutemo wandakakupa?”
Rĩu-rĩ, nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte wage kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa waku harĩ Jehova, na wathĩkĩre watho ũrĩa ndaakũheire?”
44 Mambo akatiwo kuna Shimei, “Mumwoyo mako unoziva zvose zvawakatadzira baba vangu Dhavhidhi. Zvino Jehovha achadzosera kuipa kwako pamusoro pako.
Ningĩ mũthamaki akĩĩra Shimei atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũũĩ ngoro-inĩ yaku ũũru ũrĩa wothe wekire baba Daudi. Rĩu Jehova nĩegũtũma ũcookererwo nĩ ũũru waku.

No Mũthamaki Solomoni nĩekũrathimwo, nakĩo gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene wa Daudi gĩtũũre gĩkĩgitĩre mbere ya Jehova nginya tene.”

Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩatha Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada, nake agĩthiĩ akĩgũtha Shimei akĩmũũraga. Ũthamaki naguo ũkĩĩhaanda ũrũmĩte biũ moko-inĩ ma Solomoni.
