Sie Tokosra 2

1 Ke David el apkuran in misa, el pangnol Solomon, wen natul, ac sang kas in kasru safla lal nu sel:

Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying:

2 “Pacl in misa luk apkuranme. Kom in ku ac pulaik na,

'I go the way of all the earth; be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man;

3 ac oru ma LEUM GOD lom El sapkin nu sum. Akos ma sap ac ma oakwuk lal nukewa, oana ma simla ke ma sap lal Moses, tuh yen nukewa kom som nu we kom fah wo ouiyom in ma nukewa kom oru.

and keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His ordinances, and His testimonies, according to that which is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself;

4 Kom fin akos LEUM GOD, El ac akpwayeye wulela lal nu sik ke El fahk mu fwilin tulik nutik ac fah leumi Israel nwe tok, ke lusenna pacl elos liyaung ac akos ma nga sapkin nu selos ke insialos ac ngunalos nufon.

that the LORD may establish His word which He spoke concerning me, saying: If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before Me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee, said He, a man on the throne of Israel.

5 “Sayen ma inge, oasr sie pac ma. Kom esam ma Joab el tuh oru nu sik ke el uniya mwet kol fulat luo lun un mwet mweun lun Israel, Abner wen natul Ner, ac Amasa wen natul Jether. El akmuseltalu ke pacl in misla, ke sripen el ke foloksak ke mwet eltal uniya ke mweun. El uniya mwet ma wangin ma koluk la, ac inge nga eis mwatan ma el oru ac keok kac.

Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did unto me, even what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.

6 Kom etu na ma fal kom in oru. Nimet lela elan misa ke pacl fal lal, a kom in unilya. (Sheol h7585)

Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace. (Sheol h7585)

7 “Ac nu sin wen natul Barzillai, kom in oru kulang nu selos ac liyalosyang, mweyen elos tuh kulang nu sik ke nga kaingkunul Absalom, tamulel lom.

But show kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table; for so they drew nigh unto me when I fled from Absalom thy brother.

8 “Ac nu sel Shimei, wen natul Gera mwet Bahurim in acn Benjamin, el tuh selngawiyu ke kas na mwen ke len se nga som nu Mahanaim. Tusruktu ke el tuh sunyu Infacl Jordan, nga tuh wulela na ku nu sel ke Inen LEUM GOD lah nga ac tia sap in anwuki el.

And, behold, there is with thee Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim; but he came down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swore to him by the LORD, saying: I will not put thee to death with the sword.

9 Tuh kom in tia fuhlela in wangin kalya nu sel. Kom etu na ma fal kom in oru. Nimet lela elan misa ke pacl fal lal, a kom in unilya.” (Sheol h7585)

Now therefore hold him not guiltless, for thou art a wise man; and thou wilt know what thou oughtest to do unto him, and thou shalt bring his hoar head down to the grave with blood.' (Sheol h7585)

10 David el misa, ac pukpuki el in Siti sel David.

And David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

11 El tuh tokosra lun Israel ke yac angngaul. El muta Hebron ke yac itkosr, ac Jerusalem ke yac tolngoul tolu.

And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

12 Solomon el aolulla David, papa tumal, in tokosra, ac tokosrai lal oakwuki arulana ku.

And Solomon sat upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established firmly.

13 Na Adonijah, su nina kial pa Haggith, el som nu yorol Bathsheba, nina kial Solomon. Bathsheba el siyuk, “Ya kom tuku ke misla?” Adonijah el topuk, “Aok.”

Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon. And she said: 'Comest thou peaceably?' And he said: 'Peaceably.'

14 Na el sifilpa fahk, “Oasr ma se nga ke siyuk sum.” Bathsheba el siyuk, “Mea se?”

He said moreover: 'I have somewhat to say unto thee.' And she said: 'Say on.'

15 El topuk, “Kom etu lah nga lukun tokosrala, ac mwet Israel nukewa nunku mu ac ouinge. Tuh pa sikyak tuh na tamulel se luk pa tokosrala, mweyen pa inge lungse lun LEUM GOD.

And he said: 'Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign; howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother's; for it was his from the LORD.

16 A inge oasr enenu se luk. Nunak munas, nimet srunga.” Bathsheba el siyuk, “Ku mea se?”

And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not.' And she said unto him: 'Say on.'

17 El topuk, “Nunak munas, siyuk sel Tokosra Solomon tuh nga in payukyak sel Abishag, mutan fusr Shunem sac. Nga etu lah el tia ku in folokunla ngusr lom uh.”

And he said: 'Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king — for he will not say thee nay — that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.'

18 Bathsheba el topuk, “Wona. Nga ac tafwekomla nu sel tokosra.”

And Bath-sheba said: 'Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.'

19 Ouinge Bathsheba el som nu yorol tokosra in tafwella Adonijah nu sel. Ac tokosra el tuyak in paing nina kial, ac pasrla nu sel. Na el muta fin tron lal ac sap in utuku pac sie tron nu layen layot sel, nina kial elan muta fac.

Bath-sheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed down unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a throne to be set for the king's mother; and she sat on his right hand.

20 Na Bathsheba el fahk, “Oasr enenu srisrik se luk nga ke siyuk sum. Nunak munas nimet folokin.” Tokosra Solomon el siyuk, “Nina, mea se? Nga ac tia folokin ngusr lom an.”

Then she said: 'I ask one small petition of thee; deny me not.' And the king said unto her: 'Ask on, my mother; for I will not deny thee.'

21 Na nina kial ah fahk, “Eisalang Abishag kial Adonijah, tamulel lom.”

And she said: 'Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.'

22 Tokosra el siyuk, “Efu kom ku siyuk ngan eisalang Abishag nu sel? Ac kom ku tia siyuk pacna ngan sang tokosrai luk nu sel, lah el tamulel matu luk, ac oayapa nu sel Abiathar mwet tol, ac Joab su welul lac?”

And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother: 'And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.'

23 Na Solomon el orala wulela ku se lal Inen LEUM GOD ac fahk, “Nga fin tia unilya Adonijah ke sripen siyuk kutasrik se lal inge, lela LEUM GOD Elan uniyuwi!

Then king Solomon swore by the LORD, saying: 'God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.

24 LEUM GOD El oakiyuwi ku fin tron lal David, papa tumuk, ac El akpwayeye wulela lal ac ase tokosrai nu sik, ac nu sin tulik nutik. Nga fulahk Inen LEUM GOD lah Adonijah el ac anwuki na misenge!”

Now therefore as the LORD liveth, who hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me a house, as He promised, surely Adonijah shall be put to death this day.'

25 Ouinge Tokosra Solomon el sapkin nu sel Benaiah, ac el som unilya Adonijah.

And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him, so that he died.

26 Na Tokosra Solomon el fahk nu sel Abiathar mwet tol, “Folokla nu acn sum in acn Anathoth. Fal na in anwuki kom, tuh nga ac tia lela in sa anwuki kom, ke sripen kom tuh liyaung Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD, oayapa kom tuh welul David, papa tumuk, in mwe elya nukewa ma sikyak nu sel.”

And unto Abiathar the priest said the king: 'Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art deserving of death; but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou didst bear the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou wast afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.'

27 Ouinge Solomon el sisella Abiathar liki orekma lun mwet tol lun LEUM GOD, ac ma inge akpwayeyela kas lun LEUM GOD su El tuh fahk in acn Shiloh kacl Eli mwet tol ac fwilin tulik natul.

So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that the word of the LORD might be fulfilled, which He spoke concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

28 Joab el lohng ke ma sikyak inge. (El tuh kasrel Adonijah, ac tia kasrel Absalom.) Ouinge el kaingla nwe ke Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD, ac sruokya sruwasrik in loang sac.

And the tidings came to Joab; for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the Tent of the LORD, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

29 Ke fwackyang nu sel Tokosra Solomon lah Joab el kaingla nu ke Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD ac tu sisken loang sac, na Solomon el supwala mwet se in siyuk sel lah efu el ku kaingla nu ke loang sac. Na Joab el topuk mu, “Nga kaingla nu yurin LEUM GOD mweyen nga sangeng sel Solomon.” Na Tokosra Solomon el supwalla Benaiah elan som unilya Joab.

And it was told king Solomon: 'Joab is fled unto the Tent of the LORD, and, behold, he is by the altar.' Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying: 'Go, fall upon him.'

30 El som nwe ke Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD ac fahk nu sel Joab, “Tokosra el sap kom in tufokla.” Joab el topuk, “Mo, nga ac misa na inse.” Na Benaiah el folokla nu yorol tokosra, ac tafweang ma Joab el fahk.

And Benaiah came to the Tent of the LORD, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the king: Come forth.' And he said: 'Nay; but I will die here.' And Benaiah brought back word unto the king, saying: 'Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.'

31 Solomon el fahk, “Oru oana el fahk an. Unilya ac piknilya, tuh nga, ku kutena sin tulik natul David, fah tia eis mwatan ma Joab el oru ke el uniya mwet su wangin mwata.

And the king said unto him: 'Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the blood, which Joab shed without cause, from me and from my father's house.

32 LEUM GOD El ac fah sang kalya nu sel Joab ke akmas el tuh orala a wangin eteya sel David, papa tumuk. Joab el uniya mwet luo su wo lukel na ac wangin mwata: Abner, mwet kol fulat lun un mwet mweun lun Israel, ac Amasa, mwet kol fulat lun un mwet mweun lun Judah.

And the LORD will return his blood upon his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, and my father David knew it not: Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.

33 Mwatan akmas ingan ac fah putatyang nu facl Joab, ac nu fin fwilin tulik natul nwe tok. A LEUM GOD El ac sang wo ouiya nu sin tulik natul David, su ac muta fin tron lal.”

So shall their blood return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever; but unto David, and unto his seed, and unto his house, and unto his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the LORD.'

34 Ouinge Benaiah el som nu ke Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD, ac unilya Joab ac piknilya in acn sel yen mwesis.

Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him; and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

35 Tokosra el oru tuh Benaiah elan mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun in aolul Joab, ac sang acn lal Abiathar, mwet tol, nu sel Zadok.

And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host; and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.

36 Na tokosra el solalma Shimei ac fahk nu sel, “Musaela sie lohm ah sum in Jerusalem. Muta loac, ac tia illa liki siti uh.

And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him: Build thee a house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.

37 Kom fin fahsr alukela infacl srisrik Kidron, na pwayena kom ac fah misa, ac koluk kac uh fah ma lom sifacna.”

For on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, know thou for certain that thou shalt surely die; thy blood shall be upon thine own head.'

38 Shimei el topuk, “Wona, Leum fulat. Nga ac oru oana kom fahk an.” Ouinge el mutana Jerusalem ke len puspis.

And Shimei said unto the king: 'The saying is good; as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do.' And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

39 Tusruktu, yac tolu tok, luo sin mwet kohs lal kaingla nu yorol Achish wen natul Maacah, su tokosra lun acn Gath. Ke Shimei el lohng lah eltal oasr Gath,

And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying: 'Behold, thy servants are in Gath.'

40 el akoela donkey natul, ac som nu yorol Tokosra Achish nu Gath, in suk mwet kohs lal ah. Ke el konaltalak el folokunultalma nu lohm sel.

And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish, to seek his servants; and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.

41 Ke Solomon el lohng ma Shimei el oru,

And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come back.

42 el solalma ac fahk nu sel, “Nga tuh oru kom wulela Inen LEUM GOD mu kom ac tiana illa liki acn Jerusalem, ac nga sensenkakin kom mu kom fin illa, pwayena kom ac misa. Ku kom tuh tia insese nu kac, ac fahk mu kom ac akosyu?

And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him: 'Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and forewarned thee, saying: Know for certain, that on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me: The saying is good; I have heard it.

43 Na efu ku kom kunausla wulela lom, ac tia akos ma nga sapkin?

Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?'

44 Kom arulana etu ma koluk nukewa ma kom tuh orala nu sel David, papa tumuk. LEUM GOD El ac kalyei kom kac.

The king said moreover to Shimei: 'Thou knowest all the wickedness which thy heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father; therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head.

45 A El ac akinsewowoyeyu, ac El ac akkeye tokosrai lal David nwe tok.”

But king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.'

46 Na tokosra el sapkin nu sel Benaiah, ac el som unilya Shimei. Inge ku nukewa ke tokosrai oan inpaol Solomon.

So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he went out, and fell upon him, so that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
