1 Pea ko ʻeni kuo motuʻa ʻa Tevita pea lahi ʻa hono taʻu; pea naʻa nau ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi kofu, ka naʻe ʻikai ke ne māfana ai.
Mfalme Daudi alipokuwa mzee sana, walimfunika kwa nguo, lakini hakupata joto.
2 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Tuku ke nau kumi mai ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ha finemui ko e tāupoʻou: pea tuku ia ke ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, mo ne tauhi kiate ia, pea tuku ke ne tokoto ki ho fatafata, koeʻuhi ke māfana ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”
Kwa hiyo watumishi wake wakamwambia, “Na tutafute msichana bikra kwa ajili ya mfalme bwana wetu. Ili amtumikie na kumtunza. Naye atalala kwenye mikono yake ili bwana mfalme wetu apate joto.
3 Ko ia naʻa nau kumi ha fefine mui hoihoifua ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻa ʻApisaki ko e fefine Sunemi ʻonau ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi.
Kwa hiyo wakatafuta msichana mrembo katika mipaka yote ya Israeli. Wakampata Abishagi Mshunami wakamlte kwa mfalme.
4 Pea naʻe hoihoifua ʻaupito ʻae taʻahine, pea naʻa ne fai ʻofa ki he tuʻi, mo ne tauhi kiate ia: ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe he tuʻi.
Yule msichana alikuwa mrembo sana. Naye akamtumikia mfalme na kumtunza, Lakini mfalme hakumjua.
5 Pea naʻe toki fai fakafiefielahi ʻe ʻAtunaisa ko e tama ʻa Hakiti, ʻo ne pehē, Te u hoko au ko e tuʻi: pea naʻa ne teuteuʻi maʻana ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau heka hoosi, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko nimangofulu ke lele muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ʻao.
Wakati huo, Adoniya mwana wa Hagithi alijiinua akisema, “Nitakuwa mfalme.” Kwa hiyo akajiandalia magari na wapanda farasi hamsini ili wapige mbio mbele yake.
6 Pea naʻe ʻikai fakamamahi ia ʻe heʻene tamai ʻi ha ʻaho, pe te ne pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke fai pehē ni ai?” Pea ko e tangata toulekeleka lelei ia, pea naʻe fanauʻi ia ki mui ʻia ʻApisalomi.
Baba yake alikuwa hajawahi kumsumbua, kwa kusema, “kwa nini umefanya hili na lile?” Adoniya allikuwa mwanamume mzuri sana aliyezaliwa baada ya Absalomu.
7 Pea naʻa ne alea mo Soape ko e tama ʻa Seluia, pea mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻa na muimui ʻia ʻAtunaisa ko hono tokoni.
Akashauriana na Yoabu mwana wa Seruya na Abiathari kuhani. Wakamfuata Adoniya wakamsaidia.
8 Ka ko Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Simi, mo Lei, pea mo e kau tangata mālohi ʻaia naʻe ʻia Tevita, naʻe ʻikai kau [ʻakinautolu ]kia ʻAtunaisa.
Lakini Sadoki kuhani, Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada, nabii Nathani, Shimei, Rei, na watu mashujaa wa Daudi hawakumfuata Adoniya.
9 Pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e fanga manu sino ʻe ʻAtunaisa ʻi he maka ko Soileti, ʻaia ʻoku vāofi mo Enilokeli, pea naʻa ne ui ki hono ngaahi tokoua ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, pea ki he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi:
Adoniya akataoa dhabihu za Kondoo, na ndama walionona kwenye jiwe la Sohelethi, ambalo liko karibu na Eni Rogeli. Akawakaribisha ndugu zake wote, watoto wa mfalme, wanaume wote wa Yuda, na watumishi wa mfalme.
10 Ka ko Netane ko e palōfita mo Penaia, mo e kau tangata mālohi, pea mo Solomone ko hono tokoua, naʻe ʻikai te ne ui.
Lakini hakumkaribisha nabii Nathan, Benaya, wanaume mashujaa, au ndugu yake Sulemani.
11 Ko ia naʻe lea ai ʻa Netane kia Patisepa ko e faʻē ʻa Solomone, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai kuo ke fanongo kuo pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa ko e tama ʻa Hakiti, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe hota ʻeiki ko Tevita?
Kisha Nathani akamwambia Bethisheba mama wa Sulemani, akaisema, “Je, haujasikia kuwa Adoniya mwana wa Hagathi amekuwa mfalme, na Daudi bwana wetu halijui hilo?
12 Ko ia ke ke haʻu, pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke u enginakiʻi koe, koeʻuhi ke ke fakamoʻui ʻa hoʻo moʻui ʻaʻau, pea mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo tama ko Solomone.
Kwa hiyo sasa nakupa ushauri, ili kwamba uweze kuokoa maisha yako na maisha ya mwanao Suleimani.
13 ‌ʻAlu pea ke hoko atu kia Tevita ko e tuʻi, pea ke lea pehē kiate ia, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻikai naʻa ke fuakava ki hoʻo kaunanga, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻe hoko ʻa Solomone ko hoʻo tama ke pule ki mui ʻiate au, pea te ne nofo ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi? Pea ka kuo pehē ko e hā kuo pule ai ʻa ʻAtunaisa?’”
Nenda kwa mfalme Daudi; ukamwambie, 'Bwana wangu mfalme, Je, haukumwapia mtumishi wako, ukisema, “Hakika Sulemani mwanao atatawala baada yangu, na ataketi kwenye kiti changu cha enzi?” Kwa nini basi Adoniya anatawala?'
14 Pea vakai, lolotonga ʻa hoʻo alea ai mo e tuʻi, te u muimui atu au ʻiate koe foki mo fakamoʻoni ʻa hoʻo ngaahi lea.
Wakati ukiwa pale ukiongea na mfalme, Nitaingia baada yako na kuthibitisha hayo.
15 Pea naʻe hū atu ʻa Patisepa ki he tuʻi ki hono potu fale: pea naʻe motuʻa ʻaupito ʻae tuʻi; pea naʻe tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻa ʻApisaki ko e fefine Sunemi.
Kwa hiyo Bathisheba akaingia chumbani kwa mfalme. Wakati huo mfalme alikuwa mzee sana, na Abishagi Mshunami alikuwa akimtunza mfalme.
16 Pea naʻe punou ʻa Patisepa, mo ne fai fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tuʻi. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, Ko e hā ho loto?
Bathisheba akaiinama kifudifudi mbele ya mfalme. Na kisha mfalme akasema, “Una haja gani?”
17 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, naʻa ke fuakava ʻia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ki hoʻo kaunanga, [ʻo pehē], ‘Ko e moʻoni ko Solomone ko hoʻo tama ʻe hoko mo au ki he pule, pea te ne ʻafio ʻi hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi.’
Naye akamwambia, “Bwana wangu, ulimwapia mtumishi wako kwa jina la BWANA, Mungu wako, ukisema, 'Hakika Sulemani mwanao atatawala, baada yangu, naye ataketi kwenye kiti changu cha enzi.'
18 Pea vakai eni, kuo pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa; pea ko eni, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ia:
Sasa, tazama, Adoniya ni mfalme, na bwana wangu mfalme hajui jambo hili.
19 Pea kuo ne tāmateʻi ʻae fanga pulu, mo e fanga manu sino, mo e fanga sipi ʻo lahi ʻaupito, pea kuo ne talaki ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi, mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Soape ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau tau: ka kuo ʻikai te ne ui ʻa Solomone ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
Ametoa dhabihu ya makisai, ndama walionona, na kondoo wengi, na amewakaribisha wana wote wa mfalme, Abiathari kuhani, na Yoabu jemedari wa jeshi, lakini hajamkaribisha Sulemani mtumishi wako.
20 Pea ko koe, ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, kuo hanga mai kiate koe ʻae mata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke ke fakahā kiate kinautolu pe ko hai ia ʻe hoko mo koe ke nofo ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.
Mfalme bwana wangu, macho yote ya Israeli yako kwako, yakisubiri usemi wako juu ya nani atakayeti kwenye kiti cha enzi baada yako, bwana wangu.
21 He ka ʻikai fai eni ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka tō ʻo mohe ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi fakataha mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, ʻe lau au mo ʻeku tama ko Solomone ko e ongo fai hala.”
Vinginevyo itatokea, wakati bwana wangu atakapolala na baba zake, kwamba Mimi na mwanangu Sulemani kuhesabiwa wahaini.”
22 Pea vakai, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei lea mo e tuʻi, naʻe hū atu foki ʻa Netane ko e palōfita.
Wakati alipokuwa akiendelea na mfalme, nabii Nathani aliingia.
23 Pea naʻa nau fakahā ange ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Vakai ko eni ʻa Netane ko e palōfita. Pea ʻi heʻene hū mai ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, naʻa ne punou hifo ia mo hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
Watumshi wakamwambia mfalme, “Nabii Nathani yuko hapa,” Naye alipoingia mbele ya mfalme, akalala kifudifudi mbele ya mfalme na uso wake ukielekea chini.
24 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Netane, ʻE tuʻi, ko hoku ʻeiki, kuo ke pehē koā, ʻE pule ʻa ʻAtunaisa ki mui ʻiate au, pea ʻe nofo ia ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi?
Nathani akamwambia, “Mfalme bwana wangu, Je, umesema, Adoniya atatawala baada yangu, na ataketi kwenye kiti changu cha enzi?
25 He kuo ʻalu hifo ia he ʻaho ni, pea kuo ne tāmateʻi ʻae fanga pulu mo e fanga manu sino, mo e fanga sipi ʻo lahi ʻaupito, pea kuo ne talaki ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, mo e houʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, pea mo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki; pea vakai, ʻoku nau kai mo inu ʻi hono ʻao, ʻonau pehē, ‘Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko ʻAtunaisa.’
kwani leo ameshuka na ametoa dhabihu ya makisai, ndama walionona, na kondoo wengi, na amewakaribisha wana wote wa mfalme, jemedari wa jeshi, na Abiatahari kuhani. Nao wanakuka na kunywa mbele zake, na kusema, 'Mfalme Adoniya na aishi milele!'
26 Ka ko au, ʻio, ko au ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, mo Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, pea mo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Solomone, kuo ʻikai te ne ui [ʻakimautolu].
Lakini mimi, mtumishi wako, Sadoki kuhani, Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada, na mtumishi wako Suleimani, hajatukaribisha.
27 Kuo fai ʻae meʻa ni ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, pea kuo ʻikai ke ke fakahā mai ia ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pe ko hai ia ʻe nofo ki mui ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi?”
Je, bwana wangu mfalme amefanya haya pasipo kutuambia sisi, watumishi wako, ni nani atakayeketi kwenye kiti cha enzi baada yake?”
28 Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita ʻo ne pehē, “Ui mai ʻa Patisepa.” Pea naʻa na haʻu ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
Ndipo mfalme Daudi lipojibu na kusema, “Mwiteni Bathisheba arudi.” Naye akaja akasimama mbele ya mfalme.
29 Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “ʻO hangē ʻoku moʻui moʻoni ʻa Sihova, ʻaia kuo huhuʻi ʻa hoku laumālie mei he mamahi kotoa pē,
Mfalme akafanya kiapo akasema, “Kama BWANA aishivyo, ambaye ameniokoa toka tabu zote,
30 ‌ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fuakava kiate koe ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ko Solomone ko hoʻo tama ʻe pule ki mui ʻiate au, pea ʻe nofo ia ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi ko hoku fetongi;’ te u fai pehē moʻoni kiate koe he ʻaho ni.”
kama nilivyokuapia kwa BWANA, Mungu wa Israeli, nikisema, 'Sulemani mwanao atatawala baada yangu, naye ndiye atakayeketi kwenye kiti changu cha enzi, mahali pangu,' Nitafanya hivi leo.”
31 Pea naʻe toki punou ʻa Patisepa mo hono mata ki he kelekele, mo ne fai fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOfa ke moʻui ʻa Tevita ko hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo taʻengata.”
Kisha Bathisheba akalala kifudifudi na sura yake ikielekea chini mbele ya mfalme akasema, “Bwana wangu mfalme Daudi n a aishi milele!”
32 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita, Ui mai ʻa Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata. Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
Mflme Daudi akasema, “Niitieni Sadoki kuhani, nabii Nathani na Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada.” Nao wakaja mbele ya mfalme.
33 Naʻe pehē foki ʻe he tuʻi kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻave mo kimoutolu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa homou ʻeiki, pea fakaheka ʻa Solomone ko hoku foha ki heʻeku miuli ʻaʻaku, pea ʻohifo ia ki Kihoni:
Mfalme akawaambia, “Uwachukue watumishi wangu, bwana wako, na umfanye Sulemani mwanangu apande juu ya nyumba yangu mimi na mkamtelemshe mpaka chini Gihoni.
34 Pea tuku ke pani ia ʻaki ʻae lolo ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki mo Netane ko e palōfita, ke ne tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli: pea mou ifi ʻaki ʻae meʻalea, mo pehē, ‘Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko Solomone.’
Na Sadoki kuhani na nabii Nathani wamtawaze awe mfalme wa Israeli na tarumbeta zipigwe, 'Mfalme Suleimani na uishi milele!'
35 Pea hili ia te mou muimui mai kiate ia, koeʻuhi ke ne haʻu ʻo heka ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi: he te ne hoko ia ko e tuʻi, ko hoku fetongi: pea kuo u fakanofo ia ke ne pule ki ʻIsileli pea mo Siuta.”
Kisha njoni mkiwa nyuma yake, naye atakuja na kukaa kwenye kiti changu cha enzi; kwani yeye ndiye atakayekuwa mfalme mahali pangu. Nimemchagua yeye kuwa mtawala wa Israeli na Yuda.”
36 Pea naʻe tali ʻae lea ʻae tuʻi ʻe Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻEmeni: pea ke pehē foki ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.
Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada akamjibu mfalme, akasema, “Na iwe hivyo! Na BWANA, Mungu wa mfalme bwana wangu, alithibitishe hilo.
37 ‌ʻO hangē ko e ʻi hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻa Sihova, ke pehē foki ʻa ʻene kau kia Solomone, mo ne fakalahi ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke lahi hake ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ko Tevita.”
Kama vile BWANA alivyokuwa na mfalme bwana wangu na awe na Sulemani hivyo hivyo, na kuifanya enzi yake kuwa kubwa kuliko zaidi ya enzi ya bwana wangu Daudi.”
38 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hifo ai ʻa Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, pea mo e kakai Keliti mo e kakai Peleti, pea naʻa nau fakaheka ʻa Solomone ki he miuli ʻae tuʻi ko Tevita, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki Kihoni.
Kwa hiyo Sadoki kuhani, nabii Nathani, Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada, na Wakerethi na Wapelethi wakamfanya Sulemani akapanda juu ya nyumba ya mfalme Daudi; wakamleta Gihoni.
39 Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻae hina lolo mei he fale fehikitaki ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, pea ne pani ʻaki ʻa Solomone. Pea naʻa nau ifi ʻae meʻalea: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, “Ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ko Solomone.”
Naye Sadoki kuhani akachukua pembe lenye mafuta hemani akamtia mafuta Sulemani kisha wakapiga tarumbeta, na watu wote wakasema, 'Mfalme Sulemani na aishi milele!'
40 Pea naʻe muimui hake kiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea naʻe ifi ʻe he kakai ʻenau ngaahi fafangu, pea naʻa nau fiefia ʻi he fiefia lahi ʻaupito, ko ia naʻe mafahi ʻae fonua ʻi heʻenau longoaʻa.
Kisha watu wote wakamfuata, na watu wakapiga zomari wakafurahi furaha kubwa mno, kiasi kwamba dunia ikatetemeka kwa sauti zao.
41 Pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa ʻAtunaisa pea mo e kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo feʻunga mo e fakaʻosi ʻenau kai. Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Soape ki he ifi ʻae meʻalea, naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku longoaʻa ai ʻae kolo mo maveuveu?”
Kisha Adoniya na wageni wake waliokuwa pamoja naye wakasikia hayo walipomaliza kula. Yoabu alipozisikia sauti za panda, akasema, “Kwa nini jiji lilko katika hali ya taharuki?”
42 Pea ʻiloange, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei lea, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sonatane ko e foha ʻo ʻApaiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAtunaisa kiate ia, “Hū mai; he ko e tangata toʻa koe pea ʻoku ke ʻomi ha ongoongolelei.”
Wakati alipokuwa akiongea, Yonatahani mwana wa Abiathari kuhani alifika. Adoniya akamwambia, “Karibu, 'kwa kuwa wewe wastahili kutuletea habari.”
43 Pea naʻe lea ʻo pehēange ʻe Sonatane kia ʻAtunaisa, “Ko e moʻoni kuo fakanofo ʻe Tevita ʻa Solomone ke ne tuʻi.
Naye Yonathani akamjibu Adoniya, “Mfalme bwana wetu Daudi amemfanya Sulemani kuwa mfalme.
44 Pea kuo fekau atu ia mo Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Netane ko e palōfita, mo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, mo e kakai Keliti, mo e kakai Peleti, pea kuo nau fakaheka ia ki he miuli ʻae tuʻi:
Na mfalme amemtuma pamoja naye Sadoki, nabii Nathani, Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada, na Wakerethi pamoja na Wapelethi. Wamempandisha Sulemani juu ya nyumba ya mfalme.
45 Pea kuo pani ʻaki ia ʻae lolo ʻi Kilioni ke hoko ko e tuʻi, ʻe Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki mo Netane ko e palōfita: pea kuo nau ʻohake mei ai mo e fiefia, ko ia naʻe toe mavava ai ʻae kolo. Ko e longoaʻa eni ʻaia kuo mou fanongo ki ai.
Sadoki kuhani na nabii Nathani wamemtawaza kuwa mfalme kule Gihoni, na wametokea huko wakifurahi, ndiyo maana jiji liko katika taharuki. Na hizi ndizo sauti ulizosikia.
46 Pea kuo nofo foki ʻa Solomone ʻi he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻoe puleʻanga.
Pia, Sulemani ameketi kwenye kiti cha enzi cha ufalme.
47 Pea naʻe haʻu foki ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi ke tāpuakiʻi ʻa hotau ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ko Tevita, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae hingoa ʻo Solomone ke lelei hake ʻi ho hingoa ʻoʻou, pea ne ngaohi ʻa hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke lahi hake ʻi ho nofoʻanga ʻoʻou.’ Pea naʻe punou hifo ʻae tuʻi ʻi hono mohenga.
Zaidi ya yote, watumishi wa mfalme walikuja kumbariki mfalme bwana wetu Daudi, wakisema, 'Mungu wako na alifanye jina la Sulemani kuwa zuri kuliko jina lako, na kuifanya enzi yako kuwa kubwa kuliko yako.' na mfalme akasujudu mwenyewe kitandani.
48 Pea naʻe lea pehē foki ʻe he tuʻi, ‘Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ne foaki mai ha tokotaha ke nofo ki hoku nofoʻa fakatuʻi he ʻaho ni, ka kuo sio ki ai ʻa hoku mata.’”
Mfalme pia alisema, 'Abarikiwe BWANA, Mungu wa Israeli, ambaye amempa mtu kuketi kwenye enzi yangu siku hii ya leo, na kwamba macho yangu yamejionea hilo.'”
49 Pea naʻe manavahē ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻia ʻAtunaisa, pea naʻa nau tutuʻu hake, pea ʻalu taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono hala.
Ndipo wageni wote wa Adoniya walipoogopa sana. Wakasimama na kila mtu akaenda njia yake.
50 Pea naʻe manavahē ʻa ʻAtunaisa koeʻuhi ko Solomone, pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake, mo ne ʻalu ʻo ne puke ki he nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga.
Pia Adoniya alimwaogopa Sulemani na akasimama, na akaondoka, akachukua pembe la madhabahuni.
51 Pea naʻe tala kia Solomone, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻoku manavahē ʻa ʻAtunaisa ki he tuʻi ko Solomone: he vakai, kuo ne puke atu ki he nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Tuku ke fuakava ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kiate au he ʻaho ni, ʻe ʻikai te ne tāmateʻi ʻa ʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae heletā.”
Kisha Sulemani akaambiwa hilo, wakasema, “Tazama, Adoniya amemwogopa mfalme Sulemani, kwa kuwa ameshikilia pembe la madhabahuni, akisema, 'Mfalme Sulemani na aniapie kwanza kuwa hatamwua mtumishi wake kwa upanga.'”
52 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solomone, “Kapau te ne fai ʻo ngali mo ha tangata lelei, ʻe ʻikai siʻi tō ki he kelekele hano tuʻoni louʻulu ʻe taha: pea kapau ʻe ʻilo ha kovi ʻiate ia, ko e moʻoni te ne mate.”
Sulemani akasema, “Kama atajionyesha kuwa ni mtu wa kweli, hakuna hata unywele mmoja utakaoanguka duniani, bali kama uovu utaonekana kwake, atakufa.”
53 Ko ia naʻe fekau atu ʻe Solomone, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia mei he feilaulauʻanga. Pea naʻa ne haʻu ʻo ne punou hifo ia ki he tuʻi ko Solomone: pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solomone kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe ki ho fale.”
Kwa hiyo mfalme Sulemani akatuma watu, waliomleta Adoniya kutoka madhabahuni. Naye akaja akapiga magoti kwa Sulemani, na Sulemani akamwambia, “Nenda nyumbani kwako.”
