I Na Lii 1

1 U A elemakule ae la o Davida ke alii, a ua nui kona mau makahiki, a uhi ae la lakou ia ia me na kapa, aole nae ia i mahana'e.

And king David [was] old and advanced in days, and they covered him with clothes, and he was not warmed.

2 Nolaila, i olelo aku la kana mau kauwa ia ia, E imiia'ku kekahi wahine hou puupaa no kuu haku ke alii; a e ku oia ma ke alo o ke'lii, a e lilo ia i kahu nona, a e moe ia i kou poli, i mahana'e kuu haku ke alii.

And his servants said, Let them seek for the king a young virgin, and she shall wait on the king, and cherish him, and lie with him, and my lord the king shall be warmed.

3 Alaila imi hele ae la lakou i wahine hou maikai ma na aina a pau o ka Iseraela, a loaa ia lakou o Abisaga no Sunama, a alakai ae la lakou ia ia i ke alii.

So they sought for a fair damsel out of all the coasts of Israel; and they found Abisag the Somanite, and they brought her to the king.

4 He maikai loa hoi ua wahine la, a lilo ae la ia i kahu malama no ke alii, a lawelawe ae la oia nana, aole nae i ike ke alii ia ia.

And the damsel was extremely beautiful, and she cherished the king, and ministered to him, but the king knew her not.

5 Alaila o Adoniia ke keiki a Hagita i hookiekie ae ia ia iho, i iho la, E lilo au i alii: hoomakaukau ae la hoi ia i mau kaa me na kanaka hololio nona iho, a me na kanaka he kanalima e holo imua ona.

And Adonias the son of Aggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king; and he prepared for himself chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.

6 Aole hoi i hoonaukiuki ae kona makuakane ia ia i kekahi manawa, i ka ninau ana'e, No ke aha la oe i hana'i pela? a he maikai loa kona kino, a ua hanau ae la kona makuwahine ia ia mamuli iho o Abesaloma.

And his father never at any time checked him, saying, Why have you done [thus]? and he was also very handsome in appearance, and his mother bore him after Abessalom.

7 Kamailio ae la oia me Ioaba ke keiki a Zeruia, a me Abiatara ke kahuna, a kokua ae la laua mamuli o Adoniia.

And he conferred with Joab the son of Saruia, and with Abiathar the priest, and they followed after Adonias.

8 Aka, o Zadoka, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Simei, a me Rei, a me ka poe kanaka koa o Davida, aole lakou me Adoniia.

But Sadoc the priest, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Resi, and the mighty men of David, did not follow Adonias.

9 Pepehi iho la o Adoniia i na hipa a me na bipi kauo, a me na bipi kupaluia, ma ka pohaku o Zoheleta, e pili ana i ka punawai Rogela, a kii aku la oia i kona mau hoahanau a pau, i na keiki a ke alii, a me na kanaka a pau o Iuda na kauwa a ke alii.

And Adonias sacrificed sheep and calves and lambs by the stone of Zoelethi, which was near Rogel: and he called all his brethren, and all the adult [men] of Juda, servants of the king.

10 Aka, o Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia, a me na kanaka koa, a me Solomona kona kaikaina, kana i kii ole aku ai.

But Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas, and the mighty [men], and Solomon his brother, he did not call.

11 Nolaila olelo ae la o Natana ia Bateseba i ka makuwahine o Solomona, i ae la, aole anei oe i lohe e alii ana o Adoniia, ke keiki a Hagita, aole hoi i ike ke kakou haku o Davida.

And Nathan spoke to Bersabee the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast you not heard that Adonias the son of Aggith reigns, and our lord David knows it not?

12 Ano hoi ea, e ao aku au ia oe, i hiki ia oe ke malama i kou ola nei, a me ke ola o kau keiki o Solomona.

And now come, let me, I pray, give you counsel, and you shall rescue your life, and the life of your son Solomon.

13 E hele oe a e komo aku i ke alii Davida, a e olelo aku ia ia, Aole anei oe i hoohiki up kau kauwawahine, e kuu haku ke alii, i ka i ana mai, Oiaio e alii ana o Solomona o kau keiki mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii? No ke aha la hoi e alii nei o Adoniia?

Haste, and go in to king David, and you shall speak to him, saying, Hast not you, my lord, O king, sworn to your handmaid, saying, Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then does Adonias reign?

14 Aia hoi, i kou kamailio ana malaila me ke alii, owau no kekahi e komo ae mamuli ou e hooiaio i kau mau olelo.

And behold, while you are still speaking there with the king, I also will come in after you, and will confirm your words.

15 Alaila komo ae la o Bateseba i ke alii i kona keena, he elemakule loa ke alii; a malama ae la o Abisaga no Sunama i ke alii.

So Bersabee went in to the king into the chamber: and the king was very old, and Abisag the Somanite was ministering to the king.

16 Kulou iho la o Bateseba, me ka hoomaikai aku i ke alii. I mai la hoi ke alii, He aha kau?

And Bersabee bowed, and did obeisance to the king; and the king said, What is your request?

17 I aku la hoi oia ia ia, E kuu haku, ua hoohiki oe ma o Iehova la kou Akua no kau kauwawahine, Oiaio e alii no Solomona kau keiki mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii.

And she said, My lord, you did swear by the Lord your God to your handmaid, saying, Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and shall sit upon my throne.

18 Aia hoi, ano, e alii ana o Adoniia, eia hoi, e kuu Haku ke alii, aole oe i ike.

And now, behold, Adonias reigns, and you, my lord, O king, know [it] not.

19 Ua pepehi ae la oia i na bipi kauo, a me na bipi kupaluia, a me na hipa he nui, a ua kii ae hoi oia i na keiki a pau a ke alii a me Abiatara ke kahuna, a me Ioaba ka luna o ka poe koa, aka, o Solomona kau kauwa, kana i kii ole aku ai.

And he has sacrificed calves and lambs and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander-in-chief of the host; but Solomon your servant he has not called.

20 A o oe, e kuu haku ke alii, ke kau nei na maka o ka Iseraela a pau maluna ou, e hai aku oe ia lakou i ka mea e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii, mahope iho ona.

And you, my lord, O king, —the eyes of all Israel [are] upon you, to tell them who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king after him.

21 A i ole ia, eia paha, aia hiamoe kuu haku ke alii me kona mau makua, alaila e kapaia auanei maua me ka'u keiki Solomona he mau mea hewa.

And it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and Solomon my son shall be offenders.

22 Aia hoi, i kona kamailio ana me ke alii, komo ae la o Natana ke kaula.

And behold, while she was yet talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came. And it was reported to the king,

23 Hai aku la lakou i ke alii, i aku la, Eia'e, o Natana ke kaula. A komo ia imua i ke alo o ke alii, kulou iho la ia imua o ke alii ilalo kona alo i ka honua.

Behold, Nathan the prophet [is here]: and he came in to the king's presence, and did obeisance to the king with his face to the ground.

24 I aku la hoi o Natana, E kuu haku ke alii, ua olelo anei oe, E alii ana o Adoniia mahope iho o'u. a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii?

And Nathan said, My lord, O king, did you say, Adonias shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?

25 No ka mea, ua iho aku oia i keia la a ua pepehi i na bipi kauo a me na bipi kupaluia, a me na hipa, he nui loa, a ua hea aku oia i na keiki a pau a ke alii, a me na luna o ka poe koa, a me Abiatara, ke kahuna, aia hoi, ke ai nei lakou ke inu nei hoi imua ona, me ka olelo aku, E ola ke alii, o Adoniia.

For he has gone down today, and has sacrificed calves and lambs and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king's sons, and the chiefs of the army, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and they said, [Long] live king Adonias.

26 Aka, owau nei, owau o kau kauwa nei, a me Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me Solomona kau kauwa kana i kahea ole mai ai.

But he has not invited me your servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and Solomon your servant.

27 Ua hanaia anei keia mea e kuu haku ke alii, aole hoi oe i hoike mai i kau kauwa nei, i ka mea e noho maluna o ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii mahope iho ona?

Has this matter happened by the authority of my lord the king, and have you not made known to your servant who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king after him?

28 Alaila olelo mai la ke alii Davida, i mai la, E kahea aku ia Bateseba io'u nei. A hele mai ia imua i ke alo o ke alii, a ku iho la ia imua o ke alii.

And king David answered and said, Call me Bersabee: and she came in before the king, and stood before him.

29 Hoohiki iho la ke alii, i mai la, Ma ke ola o Iehova, ka mea nana kuu uhane i hoopakele ae mailoko ae o ka popilikia a pau,

And the king swore, and said, [As] the Lord lives who redeemed my soul out of all affliction,

30 E like me ko'u hoohiki ana nou, ma o Iehova la ke Akua o Iseraela, peneia, Oiaio, e alii ana no o Solomona kau keiki, mahope iho o'u, a e noho oia maluna o ko'u nohoalii, ma ko'u hakahaka; pela io no wau e hana aku ai i keia la.

as I swore to you by the Lord God of Israel, saying, Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.

31 Alaila kulou iho la o Bateseba ilalo ke alo i ka honua, a hoomaikai aku la i ke alii, me ka olelo aku, E ola mau loa kuu haku ke alii Davida.

And Bersabee bowed with her face to the ground, and did obeisance to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.

32 I mai la hoi ke alii Davida, E kahea aku ia Zadoka io'u nei ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada. A hele mai la lakou imua i ke alo o ke alii.

And king David said, Call me Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas the son of Jodae: and they came in before the king.

33 I mai la hoi ke alii ia lakou, E lawe pu me oukou i na kauwa a ko oukou haku, a e hooholo ia Solomona ka'u keiki maluna iho o kuu hoki, a e lawe ia ia i Gihona.

And the king said to them, Take the servants of your lord with you, and mount my son Solomon upon my own mule, and bring him down to Gion.

34 A na Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula ia e poni i alii maluna o ka Iseraela: e hookani oukou i ka pu, a e olelo aku, E ola ke alii Solomona.

And there let Sadoc the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him to be king over Israel, and do you sound the trumpet, and you shall say, Let king Solomon live.

35 Alaila e hele mai oukou mamuli ona, i hele mai oia e noho maluna o ko'u nohoalii; no ka mea, e lilo oia i alii ma ko'u hakahaka, a ua hoomaopopo ae nei au ia ia i alii maluna o Iseraela a maluna hoi o Iuda.

And he shall sit upon my throne, and reign in my stead: and I have given charge that he should be for a prince over Israel and Juda.

36 Alaila olelo aku la o Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada i ke alii, i aku la, Amene; a e olelo hoi pela Iehova ke Akua o kuu haku ke alii.

And Banaeas the son of Jodae answered the king and said, So let it be: may the Lord God of my lord the king confirm [it].

37 Me Iehova i noho pu ai me kuu haku ke alii, pela e noho pu ai oia me Solomona, a e hoonui ae i kona nohoalii i ka nohoalii o kuu haku ke alii Davida.

As the Lord was with my lord the king, so let him be with Solomon, and let him exalt his throne beyond the throne of my lord king David.

38 Alaila hele aku la Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me na Kereta a me na Pelita a hooholo lakou ia Solomona maluna o ka hoki o ke alii o Davida, a lawe ae la lakou ia ia i Gihona.

And Sadoc the priest went down, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas son of Jodae, and the Cherethite, and the Phelethite, and they mounted Solomon upon the mule of king David, and led him away to Gion.

39 Lawe ae la o Zadoka ke kahuna i ka pepeiaohao aila mailoko ae o ka halelewa, a poni ae la ia Solomona. A hookani ae la lakou i ka pu; i ae la hoi na kanaka a pau, E ola ke alii Solomona.

And Sadoc the priest took the horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon, and blew the trumpet; and all the people said, Let king Solomon live.

40 A hoi mai la na kanaka a pau mamuli ona, hookiokio ae la na kanaka me na ohe, a hauoli ae la lakou me ka olioli nui, a haalulu ae la ka honua i ko lakou leo.

And all the people went up after him, and they danced in choirs, and rejoiced with great joy, and the earth quaked with their voice.

41 Lohe ae la hoi o Adoniia a me na hoaai a pau me ia, i ka pau ana o ka lakou ahaaina. A lohe o Ioaba i ke kani ana o ka pu, i ae la ia, No ke aha la keia walaau ana o ke kulanakauhale haunaele?

And Adonias and all his guests heard, and they had [just] left off eating: and Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, and said, What [means] the voice of the city in tumult?

42 A i kana olelo ana, aia hoi, hiki ae la o Ionatana ke keiki a Abiatara, ke kahuna: i mai la o Adoniia ia ia, E komo mai oe, no ka mea, he kanaka ikaika no oe, a ke lawe mai nei oe i ka olelo maikai.

While he was yet speaking, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came in: and Adonias said, Come in, for you are a mighty man, and [you come] to bring glad tidings.

43 Alaila olelo ae la o Ionatana, i ae la ia Adoniia, Oiaio, ua hoolilo ae nei ko kakou haku ke alii o Davida ia Solomona i alii.

And Jonathan answered and said, Verily our lord king David has made Solomon king:

44 A ua hoouna ke alii me ia ia Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula, a me Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, a me na Kereta, a me na Pelita, a ua hooholo lakou ia ia maluna o ka hoki a ke alii.

and the king has sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and the Cherethite, and the Phelethite, and they have mounted him on the king's mule;

45 A ua poni ae la o Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Natana ke kaula ia ia i alii ma Gihona, a ua hoi mai lakou mailaila mai e hauoli ana, i halulu ai ke kulanakauhale. Oia ka walaau a oukou i lohe ai.

and Sadoc the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him in Gion, and have gone up thence rejoicing, and the city resounded: this [is] the sound which you have heard.

46 Ke noho nei no hoi o Solomona maluna o ka nohoalii o ke aupuni.

And Solomon is seated upon the throne of the kingdom.

47 A ua hele mai hoi na kauwa a ke alii e hoomaikai i ko kakou haku ke alii Davida, e i ana, E hoonui ke Akua i ka maikai o ka inoa o Solomona i kou inoa, a e hoopakela i kona nohoalii mamua o kou nohoalii. A kulou iho ke alii maluna iho o kona wahi moe.

And the servants of the king have gone in to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne; and the king worshipped upon his bed.

48 Peneia hoi i olelo mai ai ke alii, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela ka mea nana i haawi mai i keia la e noho kekahi maluna o ko'u nohoalii, a e ike ana hoi kuu mau maka.

Moreover thus said the king, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who has this day appointed one of my seed sitting on my throne, and my eyes see it.

49 Makau iho la na hoaai a pau na mea me Adoniia, ku ae la lakou a hele kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona wahi e hele ai.

And all the guests of Adonias were dismayed, and every man went his way.

50 Makau iho la hoi o Adoniia imua o Solomona, ku ae la ia, a hele aku, a lalau ae la i na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu.

And Adonias feared because of Solomon, and arose, and departed, and laid hold on the horns of the altar.

51 Ua haiia mai ia Solomona peneia, Aia hoi, ke makau mai nei o Adoniia i ke alii ia Solomona, no ka mea, ea, ua lalau oia i na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu, e olelo ana, E hoohiki ke alii Solomona no'u i keia la, aole ia e pepehi mai i kana kauwa me ka pahikaua.

And it was reported to Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonias fears king Solomon, and holds the horns of the altar, saying, Let Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not kill his servant with the sword.

52 Olelo mai la hoi o Solomona, Ina e hoike oia ia ia iho he kanaka hoopono, aole e haule i ka honua kekahi oho ona, aka, ina i loaa ka hewa iloko ona, e make no ia.

And Solomon said, If he should be a valiant man, there shall not a hair of his fall to the ground; but if evil be found in him, he shall die.

53 Alaila hoouna ae la ke alii Solomona, a lawe mai lakou ia ia mailuna mai o ke kuahu. Hele mai la ia a kulou iho la i ke alii ia Solomona, a olelo mai la Solomona ia ia, E hele oe i kou hale.

And king Solomon sent, and they brought him away from the altar; and he went in and did obeisance to king Solomon: and Solomon said to him, Go to your house.
