< 1 Kings 1 >

1 When King David was old and advanced in years, they covered him with blankets, but he could not keep warm.
In pulan pacl se inge Tokosra David el arulana matuoh. Mwet kulansap lal finne katelya ke kaot fusrfusr, a el tiana fusrfusr.
2 So his servants said to him, “Let us look for a young virgin for our master the king. Let her serve the king and take care of him. Let her lie in his arms so that our master the king may keep warm.”
Ouinge mwet kulansap lal elos fahk nu sel, “Leum lasr, lela kut in sokak sie mutan fusr in muta yurum in karingin kom. El ac fah oan apkuran nu yurum, in akfusrfusrye kom.”
3 So they searched for a beautiful girl within all the borders of Israel. They found Abishag the Shunammite and brought her to the king.
Sukok se inge orek in acn Israel nufon, nwe ke elos konauk sie mutan na oasku in acn Shunem, su pangpang Abishag, ac elos usalu nu yorol tokosra.
4 The girl was very beautiful. She served the king and took care of him, but the king did not have sexual relations with her.
Mutan se inge el arulana oasku. El muta yurin tokosra ac kulansupwal, tusruktu tokosra el tiana oru kutu ma nu sel.
5 At that time, Adonijah son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” So he prepared for himself chariots and horsemen with fifty men to run ahead of him.
Inge, Adonijah wen natul David sel Haggith, el sifacna akfulatyalak ac fahk, “Nga pa ac tokosra.” El akoela chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse, ac sulela mwet lumngaul in atlol.
6 His father had never troubled him, saying, “Why have you done this or that?” Adonijah was also a very handsome man, born next after Absalom.
El mukul na oasku se, ac el pa matu sin mukul natul David ma srakna moul. Wanginna pacl David el multikin nu sel ke ma el oru.
7 He conferred with Joab son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest. They followed Adonijah and helped him.
Adonijah el pwapa nu sel Joab (su nina kial pa Zeruiah) ac nu sel Abiathar mwet tol, ac eltal insese in kasrel ke pwapa lal.
8 But Zadok the priest, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David did not follow Adonijah.
Tusruktu Zadok mwet tol, ac Benaiah wen natul Jehoiada, ac Nathan mwet palu, Shimei, Rei, ac mwet mweun karinginyal David, elos nukewa tia insese nu sel Adonijah.
9 Adonijah sacrificed sheep, oxen, and fattened calves by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En Rogel. He invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants.
Sie len ah Adonijah el orek kisa ke sheep, cow mukul, ac cow fusr na fact, in acn se pangpang Eot in Serpent, ma apkuran nu ke unon in kof Enrogel. El suli kutu sin tamulel lal su wen pac natul David, wi pac mwet kacto lun tokosra su mwet Judah, elos in tuku nu ke kufwa in kisa se inge.
10 But he did not invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, the mighty men, or his brother Solomon.
Tusruktu el tia solal Solomon, sie pac tamulel lal, ku Nathan mwet palu, ku Benaiah, ku mwet mweun karinginyal tokosra.
11 Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Have you not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith has become king, and David our master does not know it?
Na Nathan el som nu yorol Bathsheba, nina kial Solomon, ac siyuk sel, “Ku kom soenna lohng lah Adonijah, wen natul Haggith, el sifacna akwalyalak nu ke tokosra? Ac Tokosra David el tiana etu.
12 Now therefore let me give you advice, so that you may save your own life and the life of your son Solomon.
Kom fin lungse loangela moul lal Solomon, wen nutum, oayapa moul lom sifacna, kasru luk nu sum pa inge:
13 Go to King David; say to him, 'My master the king, did you not swear to your servant, saying, “Surely Solomon your son will reign after me, and he will sit on my throne?” Why then is Adonijah reigning?'
kom in aksaye som nu yorol Tokosra David ac siyuk sel, ‘Leum Fulat, ya kom tuh tia wulela nu sik Inen LEUM GOD mu Solomon, wen nutik, pa ac tokosra in aol kom? Fuka tuh Adonijah el tokosrala?’”
14 While you are there speaking with the king, I will come in after you and confirm your words.”
Ac Nathan el sifilpa fahk, “Kom ac srakna sramsram nu sel Tokosra David, na nga ac utyak ac akkeye ma kom srumun an.”
15 So Bathsheba went into the king's room. The king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was serving the king.
Ouinge Bathsheba el som in osun nu sin tokosra infukil in motul sel. Tokosra el arulana matuoh, ac Abishag, mutan fusr Shunem sac, el muta infarol karinganul.
16 Bathsheba bowed and prostrated herself before the king. Then the king said, “What do you desire?”
Bathsheba el pasrla nu ye mutun tokosra, ac tokosra el siyuk sel, “Mea kom lungse?”
17 She said to him, “My master, you swore to your servant by Yahweh your God, saying, 'Surely Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.'
Bathsheba el topuk, “Leum Fulat, kom tuh wulela na ku nu sik Inen LEUM GOD lom mu Solomon, wen nutik, pa ac aol kom in tokosra.
18 Now, see, Adonijah is king, and you, my master the king, do not know it.
Tuh pa Adonijah el tokosrala tari, ac kom tiana etu.
19 He has sacrificed oxen, fatted calves, and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the sons of the king, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the army, but he has not invited Solomon your servant.
El kisakin mwe kisa na pus ke cow mukul, sheep, ac cow fusr na fact, ac suli wen nutum an, ac Abiathar mwet tol, ac Joab captain lun un mwet mweun lom nu ke kufwa uh, a el tia solal Solomon, wen nutum.
20 As for you, my master the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, waiting for you to tell them who will sit on the throne after you, my master.
Leum fulat, mwet Israel nukewa tawi kom in fahk nu selos lah su ac aol kom in tokosra.
21 Otherwise it will happen, when my master the king sleeps with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be regarded as criminals.”
Kom fin tia akkalemye inge, na pacl se na kom ac misa, nga ac Solomon, wen nutik, ac fah oaoala mwet lokoalok lain tokosra.”
22 While she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
El srakna sramsram, na Nathan el sun lohm sin tokosra.
23 The servants told the king, “Nathan the prophet is here.” When he came in before the king, he prostrated himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Fwackyang nu sin tokosra lah mwet palu el a inge, na Nathan el utyak ac pasrla yetun tokosra.
24 Nathan said, “My master the king, have you said, 'Adonijah will reign after me, and he will sit on my throne?'
Na el fahk, “Ya kom fahkla tari lah Adonijah pa ac aol kom in tokosra uh?
25 For he has gone down today and sacrificed oxen, fatted calves, and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the king's sons, the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest. They are eating and drinking before him, and saying, 'Long live King Adonijah!'
Misenge na el som ac kisakin mwe kisa pukanten ke cow mukul, sheep, ac cow fusr na fact. El suli wen nutum nukewa, ac Joab captain lun un mwet mweun lom, ac Abiathar mwet tol, ac ingena elos tukeni mongo, sasa, ac fahk, ‘In paht moul lal Tokosra Adonijah!’
26 But as for me, your servant, Zadok the priest, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon, he has not invited us.
Tusruktu el tiana suliyu, ku Zadok mwet tol, ku Benaiah, ku Solomon.
27 Has my master the king done this without telling us, your servants, who should sit on the throne after him?”
Ya kom insese nu kac, ac tiana fahk nu sin mwet pwapa lom lah su ac aol kom in tokosra?”
28 Then King David answered and said, “Call Bathsheba back to me.” She came into the king's presence and stood before the king.
Ac Tokosra David el fahk, “Sap Bathsheba elan foloko.” Ac el foloko ac tu ye mutal.
29 The king made an oath and said, “As Yahweh lives, who has redeemed me out of all trouble,
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel, “Nga wuleot nu sum Inen LEUM GOD moul, su tuh moliyula liki ongoiya luk nukewa,
30 as I vowed to you by Yahweh, the God of Israel, saying, 'Solomon your son will reign after me, and he will sit on my throne in my place,' I will do this today.”
lah misenge nga srakna sruokya wulela se ma nga tuh orala nu sum Inen LEUM GOD lun Israel: lah Solomon, wen nutum, pa ac aolyu in tokosra.”
31 Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the ground and prostrated herself before the king and said, “May my master King David live forever!”
Bathsheba el pasrla nwe ten ac fahk, “Lela tokosra, leum luk, in moul ma pahtpat!”
32 King David said, “Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada.” So they came before the king.
Na Tokosra David el sapla nu sel Zadok, Nathan, ac Benaiah. Ke elos tuku,
33 The king said to them, “Take with you the servants of your master, and have Solomon my son ride on my own mule and take him down to Gihon.
el fahk nu selos, “Us mwet kacto luk in wi kowos, ac sang Solomon, wen nutik, elan kasrusr fin kosro miul nutik sifacna, ac pwanul nwe ke Unon in kof Gihon,
34 Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him king over Israel and blow the trumpet and say, 'Long live King Solomon!'
yen ma Zadok ac Nathan ac fah akmusraella we tuh elan tokosrala lun Israel. Na kowos ukya mwe ukuk ac sasa ac fahk, ‘In paht moul lal Tokosra Solomon!’
35 Then you will come up after him, and he will come and sit on my throne; for he will be king in my place. I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and Judah.”
Kowos welul na foloko nwe ke na el muta fin tron luk uh. El fah aolyu in tokosra, mweyen el pa nga sulela in leumi Israel ac Judah.”
36 Benaiah son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, “So let it be! May Yahweh, the God of my master the king, confirm it.
Benaiah el topuk, “Ac fah ou lungse lom, ac lela LEUM GOD lom Elan akkeye!
37 As Yahweh has been with my master the king, so may he be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my master King David.”
Leum Fulat, oana ke LEUM GOD El wi kom, lela Elan welul pac Solomon, ac oru tuh tokosrai lal in akinsewowoyeyuk yohk liki tokosrai lom.”
38 So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Kerethites and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride upon King David's mule; they brought him to Gihon.
Ouinge Zadok, Nathan, ac Benaiah, ac mwet mweun karinginyal tokosra, elos eisalang Solomon nu fin miul natul Tokosra David, ac pwanul nwe ke Unon in kof Gihon.
39 Zadok the priest took the horn of oil out of the tent and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people said, “Long live King Solomon!”
Zadok el srukak oil in olive se ma el use liki Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD ac mosrwella Solomon. Elos ukya mwe ukuk ac mwet nukewa sala ac fahk, “In paht moul lal Tokosra Solomon!”
40 Then all the people went up after him, and the people played the flutes and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth shook with their sound.
Ouinge Solomon el folokla, ac mwet nukewa fahsr tokol, ac sasa ke engan. Pusren mwe ukuk natulos arulana yohk, pwanang infohk uh kusrusryak.
41 Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard it as they finished eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, “Why is there an uproar in the city?”
Ke Adonijah ac mwet welul elos aksafye mongo lalos, elos lohngak pusra sac. Ac ke Joab el lohng pusren mwe ukuk el siyuk, “Efu ku siti uh arulana ngisyak?”
42 While he was still speaking, Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest came. Adonijah said, “Come in, for you are a worthy man and bring good news.”
El srakna kaskas a Jonathan wen natul mwet tol Abiathar, el tuku. Adonijah el fahk, “Utyak. Ke kom mwet wo se, kalem lah oasr pweng wo kom us.”
43 Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, “Our master King David has made Solomon the king,
Jonathan el topuk ac fahk, “Tia wo ma! Tokosra David, leum lasr, el sraklalak Solomon elan tokosra.
44 and the king has sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Kerethites and the Pelethites. They have had Solomon ride on the king's mule.
El supwalla Zadok, Nathan, Benaiah, ac mwet mweun karinginyen tokosra in pwanul. Elos sang el kasrusr fin miul natul tokosra,
45 Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king at Gihon, and have come up from there rejoicing, so that the city is in an uproar. This is the noise that you have heard.
na Zadok ac Nathan akmusraella ke Unon in kof Gihon. Na elos ilyak nu in siti uh ac sasa, ac mwet nukewa tukeni wonak ke engan. Pa ingan pusra se kowos lohng ah.
46 Also, Solomon is sitting on the throne of the kingdom.
Inge Solomon el tokosra.
47 Moreover, the king's servants came to bless our master King David, saying, 'May your God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne.' Then the king bowed down on the bed.
Oayapa mwet kacto lun tokosra elos utyak nu yorol Tokosra David ac fahk, ‘Lela God lom Elan oru tuh Solomon elan pwengpeng yohk liki kom, ac tokosrai lal in akinsewowoyeyuk yohk liki tokosrai lom.’ Na Tokosra David el pasrla fin mwe oan kial
48 The king also said, 'Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, who has given a person to sit on my throne this day, and that my own eyes should see it.'”
ac pre ac fahk, ‘Lela kut in kaksakin LEUM GOD lun Israel, su orala tuh sie sin wen nutik in aolyula in tokosra misenge, oayapa ke El lela nga in moul nwe ke nga liye!’”
49 Then all the guests of Adonijah were terrified. They stood up and each man went his way.
Na mwet welul Adonijah elos sangeng, ac elos nukewa tuyak ac folokelik nu yen selos.
50 Adonijah was afraid of Solomon and rose up, went, and took hold of the horns of the altar.
Adonijah el arulana sangeng sel Solomon, ac el som nu in Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD, ac sruokya koac ke loang uh.
51 Then it was told Solomon, saying, “See, Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon, for he has laid hold on the horns of the altar, saying, 'Let King Solomon swear to me first that he will not kill his servant with the sword.'”
Fwackyang nu sel Tokosra Solomon lah Adonijah el sangeng sel, ac el sruokya koac ke loang sac ac fahk, “Nga kena Tokosra Solomon elan fulahk nu sik meet lah el ac tia sap in anwuki nga.”
52 Solomon said, “If he will show himself a worthy man, not a hair of his will fall to the earth, but if wickedness is found in him, he will die.”
Solomon el topuk, “El fin pwaye nu sik, tia sokofanna aunsifal fah pusralyukla, a el fin tia pwaye nu sik, el ac misa.”
53 So King Solomon sent men, who brought Adonijah down from the altar. He came and bowed down to King Solomon, and Solomon said to him, “Go to your house.”
Na Tokosra Solomon el sapla in utuki Adonijah liki loang sac. Adonijah el som nu yorol tokosra, ac pasrla ye mutal, ac tokosra el fahk, “Kom ku in som nu lohm sum.”
