1 Mga Hari 1
1 Matandang-matanda na si Haring David. Binalutan nila siya ng mga damit, pero hindi siya naiinitan.
King David had grown old and couldn't keep warm in bed however many blankets they used to cover him.
2 Kaya sinabi sa kaniya ng kaniyang mga lingkod, “Hayaan mo kaming maghanap ng dalagang birhen para sa aming hari. Paglingkuran niya ang hari at alagaan siya. Hihiga siya sa iyong mga bisig upang maiinitan ang aming panginoon na hari.”
So his officials suggested, “Let a search be made on behalf of Your Majesty for a young virgin to serve you and look after you. She can lie next to you and keep you warm.”
3 Kaya naghanap sila ng isang magandang babae sa loob ng mga hangganan ng Israel. Nahanap nila si Abisag na taga-Sunem at dinala siya sa hari.
So they searched the whole country of Israel for a beautiful young woman and found Abishag from the town of Shunem and took her to the king.
4 Siya ay napakagandang babae. Pinaglingkuran niya ang hari at inalagaan siya, pero hindi sumiping ang hari sa kaniya.
She was very beautiful, and she looked after the king, attending to his needs, but he did not have sex with her.
5 Sa panahong iyon, itinaas ni Adonias na anak ni Haguit ang kaniyang sarili, sinasabing, “Ako ang magiging hari.” Kaya naghanda siya para sa kaniyang sarili ng mga karwahe at mga mangangabayo na kasama ang limampung tao para mauna sa kaniya.
Adonijah, son of Haggith, was busy promoting himself, saying “I'm going to be king!” He arranged chariots and horsemen for himself, and fifty men to run ahead of him.
6 Hindi siya ginambala ng kaniyang ama, na nagsabing, “Bakit mo ginawa ito o iyan?” Si Adonias ay isa ring napakakisig na lalaki, sumunod na ipinanganak kay Absalom.
(Never in his life had his father corrected him. He'd never asked him, “Why did you do that?” He was also very good-looking, and had been born after Absalom.)
7 Kinausap niya sila Joab na anak ni Zeruias at si Abiatar na pari. Sumunod sila kay Adonias at tinulungan siya.
Adonijah discussed his plan with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, who agreed to support him.
8 Ngunit sila Sadoc na pari, Benaias na anak ni Joiada, Nathan na propeta, Semei, Rei, at ang mga magigiting na mga taong sumusunod kay David ay hindi sumunod kay Adonias.
But Zadok the priest, Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and David's bodyguard were not on Adonijah's side.
9 Si Adonias ay nag-alay ng mga tupa, mga lalaking baka, at mga pinatabang baka sa bato ng Zoholete na katabi ng En-rogel. Inanyayahan niya ang lahat ng kaniyang kapatid na lalaki, mga anak na lalaki ng hari, at lahat ng kalalakihan sa Juda na mga lingkod ng hari.
Adonijah invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and the king's officials of Judah, to come to the stone of Zoheleth, which is near En-rogel, where he sacrificed sheep, cattle and fattened calves.
10 Ngunit hindi niya inanyayahan sila Nathan na propeta, Benaias, ang mga magigiting na lalaki, o ang kaniyang kapatid na si Solomon.
But he didn't invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, David's bodyguard, or his brother Solomon.
11 Pagkatapos, kinausap ni Nathan si Batsheba na ina ni Solomon, sinasabing, “Hindi mo ba narinig na si Adonias na anak ni Haguit ay naging hari, at hindi ito alam ni David na ating panginoon?
Nathan went to Bathsheba, Solomon's mother, and asked her, “Haven't you heard that Adonijah, son of Haggith, has become king, and His Majesty King David doesn't even know?
12 Kaya ngayon, payuhan kita, para maligtas mo ang sarili mong buhay at ang buhay ng iyong anak na si Solomon.
Let me give you some advice so you can save your life, and that of your son Solomon.
13 Pumunta ka kay Haring David; sabihin mo sa kaniya, 'Aking panginoong hari, hindi ba't sumumpa ka sa iyong lingkod na iyong sinasabi, “Tiyak na si Solomon na iyong anak ang maghahari pagkatapos ko, at uupo siya sa aking trono?” Kung ganon, bakit naghahari si Adonias?'
Go immediately to King David and ask him, ‘Didn't Your Majesty swear to me, your servant, saying, Your son Solomon will definitely be king after me and will sit on my throne? So why is Adonijah saying he's king?’
14 Habang kinakausap mo ang hari, papasok ako pagkatapos mo at patutuhanan ko ang iyong mga salita.”
Then I'll come in while you're still there talking with the king and I'll confirm what you're saying.”
15 Kaya pumunta si Batsheba sa silid ng hari. Napakatanda na ng hari, at pinaglilingkuran siya ni Abisag na taga-Sunem.
So Bathsheba went to see the king in his bedroom. He was very old and Abishag was looking after him.
16 Yumuko si Batseba at nagpatirapa sa harap ng hari. At sinabi ng hari, “Ano ang iyong nais?”
Bathsheba bowed low in respect. He asked her, “What is it that you want?”
17 Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Aking panginoon, sumumpa ka sa iyong lingkod kay Yahweh na iyong Diyos, na iyong sinabi, 'Tiyak na si Solomon na iyong anak ang maghahari pagkatapos ko, at uupo siya sa aking trono.'
She replied, “Your Majesty, you swore to me, your servant, by the Lord your God, ‘Your son Solomon will definitely be king after me and will sit on my throne.’
18 Ngayon, tingnan mo, si Adonias ang hari, at ikaw, aking panginoong hari, ay hindi mo alam ito.
But now Adonijah has become king and Your Majesty doesn't even know.
19 Nag-alay siya ng mga lalaking baka, pinatabang baka, at maraming mga tupa at inanyayahan ang lahat ng mga anak na lalaki ng hari, si Abiatar na pari, at si Joab na kapitan ng hukbo, pero hindi niya inanyayahan si Solomon na iyong lingkod.
He has sacrificed plenty of cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and he has invited all the king's sons, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the army commander. But he didn't invite your servant Solomon.
20 Aking panginoong hari, ang mga mata ng buong Israel ay nasa iyo, naghihintay sila na sabihin mo sa kanila kung sino ang uupo sa trono pagkatapos mo, aking panginoon.
Now, Your Majesty, everyone in Israel is watching to see who you're going to say will be the next king.
21 Kung hindi, mangyayari ito, kapag nahimlay na ang aking panginoon ang hari kasama ng kaniyang mga ninuno, ako at ang aking anak na si Solomon ay ituturing na mga kriminal.”
If you don't do anything, as soon as Your Majesty dies, I and my son Solomon will be considered traitors…”
22 Habang kinakausap niya ang hari, pumasok si Nathan na propeta.
Right then, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet arrived.
23 Sinabi ng mga lingkod sa hari, “Nandito si Nathan na propeta.” Nang pumunta siya sa harapan ng hari, nagpatirapa siya na ang kaniyang mukha ay nasa sahig.
The king was told, “Nathan the prophet is here.” Nathan went in to see the king. He bowed down with his face to the ground.
24 Sinabi ni Nathan, “Aking panginoong hari, sinabi mo bang, 'Si Adonias ang maghahari pagkatapos ko, at uupo siya sa aking trono?'
Nathan asked the king, “Your Majesty, you must have announced, ‘Adonijah will be king after me and will sit on my throne.’
25 Dahil bumaba siya ngayon at nag-alay siya ng maraming mga lalaking baka, mga pinatabang baka at mga tupa, at inanyayahan ang lahat ng mga anak na lalaki ng hari, ang mga kapitan ng mga hukbo, at si Abiatar na pari. Kumakain at umiinom sila sa harapan niya, at isinasabi nilang, 'Mabuhay si Haring Adonias!'
For today he has gone and sacrificed many cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and he has invited all the king's sons, the army commanders, and Abiathar the priest. Right now they are eating and drinking with him, shouting, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’
26 Pero ako na iyong lingkod, si Sadoc na pari, si Benaias na anak ni Joiada, at ang iyong lingkod na si Solomon, ay hindi niya inanyayahan.
But he didn't invite me, your servant, or Zadok the priest, or Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, or your son Solomon.
27 Ginawa ba ito ng aking panginoong hari nang hindi mo sinasabi sa amin na iyong mga lingkod, kung sino ang dapat na maupo sa trono pagkatapos niya?”
If Your Majesty did this, you certainly didn't inform your officials as to who is meant to sit on your throne as the next king.”
28 Pagkatapos, sumagot si Haring David at sinabi, “Pabalikin mo sa akin si Batsheba.” Pumunta siya sa harap ng hari at tumayo sa harap niya.
King David replied, “Call Bathsheba for me.” Bathsheba came in and stood before the king.
29 Gumawa ng panata ang hari at sinabi, “Buhay si Yahweh, na tumubos sa akin mula sa lahat ng kaguluhan,
The king swore a vow, saying, “As the Lord lives, who has saved me from all kinds of trouble, just as I swore to you previously by the Lord the God of Israel,
30 tulad ng panunumpa ko sa iyo kay Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel, sinasabi ko, 'Ang iyong anak na si Solomon ang maghahari pagkatapos ko, at uupo siya sa aking trono kapalit ko,' gagawin ko ito ngayon.”
telling you Solomon your son will be the next king and he will sit on my throne instead of me—I swear I will do this today.”
31 Pagkatapos, yumuko si Batseba na ang kaniyang mukha ay nasa sahig at nagpatirapa sa harap ng hari at sinabi, “Nawa ang aking panginoon na si Haring David ay mabuhay magpakailanman!”
Bathsheba bowed with her face to the ground, honoring the king and said, “May Your Majesty King David live forever.”
32 Sinabi ni Haring David, “Papuntahin mo sa akin si Sadoc na pari, si Nathan na propeta, at si Benaias na anak ni Joiada.” Kaya pumunta sila sa hari.
Then King David said, “Call for me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada.” When they arrived,
33 Sinabi ng hari sa kanila, “Magsama kayo ng mga lingkod ko na inyong panginoon, at pasakayin ninyo si Solomon na aking anak sa aking sariling mola at dalhin ninyo siya sa Gihon.
the king told them, “Take the king's officials with you, and have them put Solomon on my own mule and lead him down to the Gihon Spring.
34 Pahiran siya ng langis nila Sadoc na pari at Nathan na propeta bilang hari ng buong Israel at hipan ang trumpeta at sabihi, 'Mabuhay si Haring Solomon!'
There have Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him king of Israel. Blow the trumpet and shout out, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
35 Pagkatapos ay susundan ninyo siya, at pupunta siya at mauupo sa aking trono; dahil siya ang magiging hari kapalit ko. Itinalaga ko siya para maging pinuno ng buong Israel at Juda.”
Then follow him back up, and have him come and sit on my throne. He is to be king instead of me. I am placing him in charge as ruler of Israel and Judah.”
36 Sumagot si Benaias na anak ni Joiada sa hari, at sinabi, “Nawa'y ito nga ang mangyari! Nawa'y si Yahweh, na Diyos ng aking hari, ang magpatibay nito.
“Amen!” replied Benaiah, son of Jehoiada. “May the Lord, the God of my lord the king, confirm this!
37 Kung paano sinamahan ni Yahweh ang aking panginoong hari, nawa'y ganoon din kay Solomon, at gawing mas dakila ang kaniyang trono kaysa sa trono ng aking panginoong si Haring David.”
In the same way the Lord was with my lord the king may he be with Solomon, and may he make his reign even greater than the reign of my lord King David.”
38 Kaya sila Sadoc na pari, Nathan na propeta, Benaias na anak ni Joiada, at ang mga Kereteo at Peleteo ay bumaba at pinasakay si Solomon sa mola ni Haring David; dinala nila siya sa Gihon.
Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, together with the Cherethites and Pelethites, went and placed Solomon on King David's mule, and led him down to the Gihon Spring.
39 Kinuha ni Sadoc na pari ang sungay na lalagyan ng langis mula sa tolda at pinahiran ng langis si Solomon. Pagkatapos ay hinipan nila ang trumpeta, at sinabi ng lahat ng tao, “Mabuhay si Haring Solomon!”
Zadok the priest took the horn containing olive oil from the Tent and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people shouted, “Long live King Solomon!”
40 Pagkatapos, sumunod ang lahat ng tao sa kaniya, at tumugtog ng mga plauta at nagsaya nang may buong kagalakan, na ang lupa ay nayanig sa kanilang tunog.
Everyone followed him, playing flutes and celebrating so happily that the sound shook the earth.
41 Narinig ito nila Adonias at ng lahat ng kaniyang mga panauhin habang patapos na sila sa pagkain. Nang narinig ni Joab ang tunog ng trumpeta, sinabi niya, “Bakit napakaingay ng lungsod?”
Adonijah and all his guests heard the noise as they were finishing eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he asked, “What's all this noise coming from the city?”
42 Habang nagsasalita siya, dumating si Jonatan na anak ni Abiatar na pari. Sinabi ni Adonias, “Pumasok ka, dahil karapat-dapat ka at nagdadala ka ng magandang balita.”
While he was speaking, Jonathan, son of Abiathar the priest, suddenly arrived. “Come on in,” said Adonijah. “A good man like you must be bringing good news.”
43 Sumagot si Jonatan at sinabi kay Adonias, “Ang aming panginoong si Haring David ay ginawang hari si Solomon.
“Absolutely not!” Jonathan replied. “Our lord King David has made Solomon king!
44 At pinadala ng hari sila Sadoc na pari, Nathan na propeta, Benaias na anak ni Joiada, at ang mga Kereteo at Peleteo na kasama niya. Pinasakay nila si Solomon sa mola ng hari.
He sent Solomon to be anointed with Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites. They had him ride on the king's mule.
45 Pinahiran siya ng langis bilang hari nila Sadoc na pari at Nathan ang propeta sa Gihon, at nagsaya mula roon, kaya napakaingay ng lungsod. Ito ang ingay na narinig mo.
Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anointed him king at the Gihon Spring. Now they have returned, celebrating with shouts that echo round the city. That's the noise you're hearing.
46 Nakaupo rin si Solomon sa trono ng kaharian.
On top of that, Solomon is sitting on the royal throne,
47 Dagdag pa rito, ang mga lingkod ng hari ay dumating para pagpalain ang ating panginoong si Haring David, sinasabi nila, 'Nawa'y gawing mas dakila ng iyong Diyos ang pangalan ni Solomon kaysa sa iyong pangalan, at gawing mas dakila ang kaniyang trono kaysa sa iyong trono.' At iniyuko ng hari ang kaniyang sarili sa higaan.
and the royal officials have also gone to voice their approval to our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make Solomon's reputation even more famous than your own, and may he make his reign greater than your reign.’ The king on his bed bowed his head,
48 Sinabi rin ng hari, 'Pagpalain nawa si Yahweh, na Diyos ng Israel, na nagbigay ng isang tao na mauupo sa aking trono balang-araw, at makita ito ng sarili kong mga mata.'”
and said, ‘Praise the Lord, the God of Israel! Today he has provided a successor to sit on my throne, and I have been privileged to see it.’”
49 Pagkatapos, ang lahat ng mga panauhin ni Adonias ay natakot; tumayo sila at kani-kaniyang umalis.
When all of the guests who were supporting Adonijah heard this they shook with fear. They got up and rushed out in different directions.
50 Takot si Adonias kay Solomon at tumayo siya, umalis, at kinuha ang mga sungay sa altar.
Adonijah was terrified of Solomon, so he ran off. He went and grabbed hold of the horns of the altar.
51 Pagkatapos ay sinabi ito kay Solomon, sinasabi, “Tingnan mo, si Adonias ay takot kay Haring Solomon, dahil kinuha niya ang mga sungay sa altar, sinasabi, 'Manumpa muna sa akin si Haring Solomon na hindi niya papatayin ang kaniyang lingkod gamit ang espada.”'
Solomon was told, “Adonijah is terrified of Your Majesty. He has grabbed hold of the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear today that he won't kill me, his servant!’”
52 Sinabi ni Solomon, “Kung ipakikita niya na siya ay isang taong karapat-dapat, kahit ang isang hibla ng kaniyang buhok ay hindi malalagas sa lupa, ngunit kung kasamaan ang makikita sa kaniya, mamamatay siya.”
Solomon replied, “If he is an honorable man, not one hair of his will fall to the ground. But if he shows himself to be evil, he will die.”
53 Kaya nagsugo si Haring Solomon ng mga kalalakihan, na nagbaba kay Adonias pababa ng altar. Pumunta at yumuko siya kay Haring Solomon, at sinabi ni Solomon sa kaniya, “Umuwi ka na.”
King Solomon had Adonijah brought down from the altar, and he came and bowed down before King Solomon, who told him, “Go home.”
