1 Kings 2
1 When David [knew that he] was about to die, he gave these final instructions to his son Solomon:
Bayat nga umas-asideg ti aldaw nga ipapatay ni David, binilinna ni Solomon nga anakna a kunana,
2 “I am about to die [EUP], like everyone else on earth does. Be courageous and conduct yourself as an adult should.
“Dandanin ti ipapanawko iti rabaw ti daga. Agbalinka koma a natibker, ngarud, ipakitam a naturedka.
3 Do what Yahweh our God tells you to do. Conduct yourself as he wants you to do. Obey all of his laws and commands and precepts and instructions that are written in the laws that Moses [gave us]. Do this in order that you will prosper in all that you do and wherever you go.
Tungpalem dagiti bilin ni Yahweh a Diosmo nga agbiagka iti wagasna, a tungpalem dagiti alagadenna, dagiti bilbilinna, dagiti pangngeddengna, ken ti pammaneknekna iti tulagna, a tungpalem amin a naisurat iti linteg ni Moises, tapno rumang-ayka iti amin nga aramidem ken iti sadinoman a papanam,
4 If you continually do that, Yahweh will do what he promised me: He said, ‘If your descendants do what I tell them to do, and faithfully obey my commands with all their inner beings, they will always be [LIT] the ones who will rule [MTY] Israel.’
tapno tungpalen ni Yahweh ti saona nga imbagana maipanggep kaniak a kunana, 'No annadan dagiti annakmo ti tignayda, a magnada a sipupudno iti imatangko iti amin a puso ken kararuada, saankanto a maawanan iti tao nga agtugaw iti trono ti Israel.'
5 “There is something else [that I want you to do]. You know what Joab did to me. He killed my two army commanders, Abner and Amasa. He murdered them violently [MTY] during a time of peace, pretending that it was a time of war. Those two men (were innocent/had not done what was wrong). But Joab [killed them and] their blood to stain his belt and his sandals.
Ammom met ti inaramid kaniak ni Joab nga anak ni Zeruiah, ken ti inaramidna a panangpatay kadagiti dua a pangulo ti armada ti Israel, ni Abner nga anak ni Ner, ken ni Amasa nga anak ni Jeter. Pinagsayasayna ti dara iti tiempo ti kappia ken imbarikes ken insapatosna ti dara iti gubat.
6 Because you are wise, do to him what you think is best [for you to do], but do not allow him to become old [MTY] and then die [IDM] peacefully. (Sheol h7585)
Aramidem ti ammom a maiparbeng kenni Joab babaen iti kinasirib a nasursurom, ngem saanmo koma nga itulok a sitatalna a maitanem ti ubanan nga ulona. (Sheol h7585)
7 “But be kind to the sons of Barzillai, the man from [the] Gilead [region], and be sure that they always have enough food to eat [MTY]. Do that because Barzillai helped me when I was running away from your older brother Absalom.
Nupay kasta, ipakitam ti kinaimbag kadagiti annak ni Barsilai a taga-Gallaad, ket palubosam a maysada kadagiti makisango kenka a mangan iti lamisaanmo, ta immayda kaniak idi intarayak ni Absalom a kabsatmo.
8 Also, [you remember] Gera’s son Shimei from Bahurim [town] in the area where the descendants of Benjamin live. [You know what he did to me]. He cursed me terribly on the day I [left Jerusalem and] went to Mahanaim [town]. But when he later came down to see me at the Jordan [River], I solemnly promised, while Yahweh listened [MTY], that I would not cause him to be executed.
Adtoy, kaduayo met ni Shimei nga anak ni Gera, a taga-Bahurim iti Benjamin, a nangilunod kaniak iti kasta unay idi napanak idiay Mahanaim. Simmalog ni Shimei a mangsabat kaniak idiay Jordan, ket inkarik kenkuana iti nagan ni Yahweh, a kunak, 'Saanka a patayen babaen iti kampilan.'
9 But now you must [LIT] surely punish him. You are a wise man, so you will know what you should do to him. He is an old man [MTY], but be sure that he [loses/sheds] a lot of blood when you kill him [MTY].” (Sheol h7585)
Ngarud, saanmo nga itulok a makalasat isuna manipud iti pannakadusa. Nasiribka a tao, ket ammom ti rumbeng nga aramidem kenkuana. Itanemmonto a dara-dara ti ubanan nga ulona. (Sheol h7585)
10 Then David died [EUP] and was buried in [that part of Jerusalem which was called] ‘The City of David’.
Kalpasanna, pimmusay ni David ket naitanem iti siudad ni David.
11 David had been the king of Israel for 40 years: He ruled for seven years in Hebron and for 33 years in Jerusalem.
Uppat a pulo a tawen ti panagturay ni David iti Israel. Pito a tawen a nagturay isuna idiay Hebron ken tallopulo a tawen idiay Jerusalem.
12 Solomon became the ruler/king [MTY] to take the place of his father David and took control of all of the kingdom.
Ket nagtugaw ni Solomon iti trono ti amana a ni David ket napatalgedan ti panagturayna.
13 [One day] Adonijah came to Solomon’s mother Bathsheba. She said to him, “Have you come because you want things to go well?” He replied, “Yes.”
Kalpasanna, immay kenni Batseba nga ina ni Solomon ni Adoniha nga anak ni Haggit. Kinuna ni Batseba kenkuana, “Kappia kadi ti immayam?” Simmungbat isuna, “Wen, immayak a sikakappia.”
14 But then he said, “I have something to ask you to do.” She said, “Tell me [what you want me to do].”
Ket kinuna ni Adoniha, “Adda ibagak kenka.” Isu a simmungbat ni Batseba, “Agsaoka.”
15 He said, “You know that all the Israeli people expected me to be their king [because I am David’s oldest surviving son]. But that did not happen. Instead, my [younger] brother became king, because that is what Yahweh wanted.
Kinuna ni Adoniha, “Ammom a para kaniak koma ti pagarian ken dagiti amin a tattao ti Israel, ninamnamada a siak ti agbalin nga ari. Nupay kasta, naiyawat iti kabsatko ti pagarian, ta para kenkuana daytoy a nagtaud kenni Yahweh.
16 Now I have one thing that I ask you to do. Please do not refuse to do it.” She replied, “Tell me [what you want me to do].”
Ita, adda maysa a kiddawek kenka. Saannak koma a paayen.” Kinuna ni Batseba kenkuana, “Agsaoka.”
17 He said, “Please ask King Solomon to give to me Abishag, the woman from Shunem [town], to be my wife. [I am sure that] he will not refuse.”
Kinunana ni Adoniha, “Kasaritam koma ni Solomon nga ari, ta saannaka a paayen, tapno itedna koma kaniak ni Abisag a taga-Sunem nga agbalin nga asawak.”
18 Bathsheba replied, “Okay, I will speak to the king for you.”
Kinuna ni Batseba, “Ala wen, kasaritak ti ari.”
19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon, to tell him what Adonijah wanted. The king got up [from his throne] and went to greet her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne again and asked someone to bring a chair for her. So she sat down at the king’s right side.
Napan ngarud nakisarita ni Batseba kenni Ari Solomon para kenni Adoniha. Timmakder ti ari tapno sabtenna isuna ken nagkurno iti sangoananna. Ket nagtugaw ti ari iti tronona ket nagpaiyeg isuna iti tugaw para iti inana. Nagtugaw ni Batseba iti makannawan ni Solomon.
20 Then she said, “I have one small thing which I want you to do; please do not say that you will not do it.” The king replied, “Mother, what do you want? I will not refuse you.”
Ket kinuna ni Batseba, “Adda bassit a kiddawek kenka; saannak koma a paayen.” Simmungbat ti ari kenkuana, “Agkiddawkayo ina, saankayo a paayen.”
21 She said, “Allow Abishag to be given to your [older] brother Adonijah to be his wife.”
Kinuna ni Batseba, “Itedmo koma kenni Adoniha a kabsatmo ni Abisag a taga-Sunem tapno agbalin nga asawana.”
22 The king replied [angrily], “What? Are you requesting me to give Abishag to Adonijah? [Does he want me] to allow him to rule the kingdom, too? Because he is my older brother, [does he think that he should be the king]? Does he think that Abiathar should be the priest [instead of Zadok], and that Joab [should be the army commander instead of Benaiah] because they supported him [when he tried to become the king]?”
Simmungbat ni Ari Solomon ket kinunana iti inana, “Apay a kiddawenyo ni Abisag a taga-Sunem para kenni Adoniha? Apay a saanmo pay a kiddawen ti pagarian para kenkuana, ta isuna ti inauna a kabsatko—para kenkuana, para kenni ni Abiatar a padi, ken para kenni Joab nga anak ni Zeruiah?”
23 Then Solomon solemnly promised, requesting Yahweh to listen, “I wish God would strike me and kill me if I do not cause Adonijah to be executed for requesting this!
Kalpasanna, insapata ni Ari Solomon iti nagan ni Yahweh a kunana, “Sapay koma aramiden ti Dios daytoy kaniak ken ad-adda pay koma, no saan nga imbaga ni Adonia daytoy a sao maibusor iti biagna.
24 Yahweh has appointed me to be the king and placed me here to rule [MTY] as my father David did. He has promised that my descendants [MTY] will be the kings of Israel. So just as surely as Yahweh lives, I solemnly promise that Adonijah will be executed today!”
Ita ngarud, iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon a nangisaad ken nangikabil kaniak iti trono ni David nga amak, ken nangaramid iti balay para kaniak kas inkarina, awan duadua a mapapatay ita nga aldaw ni Adoniha.”
25 So King Solomon gave orders to Benaiah to [go and] kill Adonijah, and Benaiah did that.
Isu nga imbaon ni Ari Solomon ni Benaias nga anak ni Jehoyada ket nasarakan ni Benaias ni Adoniha ket pinatayna daytoy.
26 Then Solomon said to Abiathar the priest, “Go to Anathoth [town], to your land there. You deserve to be killed, but I will not execute you now, because you were the one who [supervised the men who] carried Yahweh’s Sacred Chest for David my father, and you endured all the troubles that my father endured.”
Kalpasanna, kinuna ti ari kenni Abiatar a padi, “Mapanka idiay Anatot, iti ayan ti dagam. Rumbeng laeng a matayka, ngem saanka nga ipapatay ita, gapu ta sika ti nakaitalkan ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh a Dios iti sangoanan ni David nga amak ken nakipagsagabaka iti amin a sinagaba ti amak.”
27 So Solomon dismissed Abiathar from being the priest of Yahweh. By doing that he caused to happen what Yahweh had said [many years previously] at Shiloh, [that some day he would get rid] of the descendants [MTY] of Eli.
Inikkat ngarud ni Solomon ni Abiatar a kas padi ni Yahweh, babaen kenkuana natungpal ti sao ni Yahweh nga imbagana idiay Shiloh maipapan iti balay ni Eli.
28 Joab had not supported Absalom [when he tried to become the king], but he had supported Adonijah. So when Joab heard what had happened, he ran to the Sacred Tent, and he grasped the projections on the corners of the altar, [because he knew that no one would kill him there].
Nadamag ni Joab daytoy, ta tinulongan ni Joab ni Adoniha, uray no saanna a tinulongan ni Absalom. Isu a timmaray ni Joab a napan iti tolda ni Yahweh ket immiggem kadagiti sara nga adda iti altar.
29 When someone told Solomon that Joab had run to the Sacred Tent and was standing alongside the altar, Solomon told Benaiah, “Go and execute Joab.”
Naibaga kenni Ari Solomon a timmaray ni Joab iti tolda ni Yahweh ket addan iti abay ti altar. Imbaon ngarud ni Solomon ni Benaias nga anak ni Jehoyada a kunana, “Inka patayen isuna.”
30 So Benaiah went to the Sacred Tent and said to Joab, “The king commands you to come out!” But Joab replied, “No, I will die here.” So Benaiah went back to the king and reported [what he had said to Joab, and] what Joab had replied.
Isu a napan ni Benaias iti tolda ni Yahweh ket kinunana kenkuana, “Ibagbaga ti ari, 'Rummuarka.'” Simmungbat ni Joab, “Saan, ditoyak a matay.” Nagsubli ngarud ni Benaias iti ayan ti ari a kunana, “Kinuna ni Joab a kaykayatnan ti matay iti ayan ti altar.”
31 The king replied to him, “Do what he has requested. Kill him and bury his body. If you do that, my descendants [MTY] and I will no longer be punished for what Joab did when he killed [MTY] two men who (were innocent/had not done anything that is wrong).
Kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Aramidem no ania ti kayatna. Patayem ket itabonmo isuna, tapno maikkatmo kaniak ken iti balay ti amak ti dara a pinagsayasay ni Joab nga awan gapgapuna.
32 But Yahweh will punish [MTY] Joab for attacking and killing Abner, the commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa, the commander of the army of Judah, two men who were more righteous and better [DOU] men than he is. My father David did not even know that Joab [was planning to murder them].
Isubli koma ni Yahweh ti dara ni Joab iti bukodna nga ulo, gapu ta dinarupna ti dua a lallaki a nalinlinteg ken nasaysayaat ngem isuna ket pinatayna ida babaen iti kampilan a saan nga ammo ni David nga amak, ni Abner a pangulo ti armada ti Israel nga anak ni Ner, ken ni Amasa a pangulo ti armada ti Juda nga anak ni Jeter.
33 Joab and his descendants will be punished [IDM] forever for his murdering Abner and Amasa. But things will forever go well for David’s descendants [MTY] who rule [MTY] as King David did.”
Agsubli koma ti darada iti ulo ni Joab ken iti ulo dagiti kaputotanna iti agnanayon. Ngem kenni David ken kadagiti kaputotanna, ken iti balayna, ken iti tronona, adda koma ti kappia iti agnanayon nga agtaud kenni Yahweh.”
34 So Benaiah went [into the Sacred Tent] and killed Joab. Joab was buried on his property in the desert [part of Judah].
Simmang-at ngarud ni Benaias nga anak ni Jehoyada, ket dinarup ken pinatayna ni Joab. Naitabon isuna iti mismo a balayna idiay let-ang.
35 Then the king appointed Benaiah to be the commander of the army instead of Joab, and he appointed Zadok to be the priest instead of Abiathar.
Insaad ti ari ni Benaias nga anak ni Jehoyada a kas pangulo ti armada a kas kasukat ni Joab, ket insaadna met Zadok a padi a kas kasukat ni Abiatar.
36 Then the king sent [a messenger] to summon Shimei, and the king said to him, “Build a house for yourself here in Jerusalem. Remain there and do not leave the city to go anywhere.
Kalpasanna, nangibaon ti ari iti mangayab kenni Shimei ket kinunana kenkuana, “Mangaramidka iti balaymo idiay Jerusalem ket agnaedka sadiay, ken saanka a mapmapan iti sabali a lugar.
37 Be sure that the day that you leave Jerusalem and go across the Kidron Brook, you will be executed, and it will be (your own fault/what you deserve).”
Ta iti kanito a ballasiwem ti Tanap ti Kidron, ammomon nga awan duadua a matayka. Sikanto ti makinbasol iti ipapataymo.”
38 Shimei replied, “Your Majesty, what you say is good. I will do what you have said.” So Shimei remained in Jerusalem for several years.
Isu a kinuna ni Shimei iti ari, “Nasayaat ti imbagam. Kas iti imbaga ti apok nga ari, aramiden ngarud daytoy ti adipenmo.” Nagnaed ngarud ni Shimei iti Jerusalem iti adu nga al-aldaw.
39 But three years later, two of Shimei’s slaves ran away. They went to stay with Maacah’s son Achish, the king of Gath [city]. When someone told Shimei that they were in Gath,
Ngem idi aglippasen ti tallo a tawen, dua kadagiti adipenna ti nagtalaw a napan kenni Akis nga ari ti Gat nga anak ni Maacah. Imbagada kenni Shemei daytoy a kunada, “Kitaem, adda idiay Gat dagiti adipenmo.”
40 he put a saddle on his donkey and [got on it and] went to Gath. He found his slaves staying with King Achish and brought them back home.
Nagrubwat ngarud ni Shimei, inkabilna ti silyeta iti asnona ket napan kenni Akis idiay Gat tapno birokenna dagiti adipenna. Inyawidna dagiti adipenna manipud idiay Gat.
41 But someone told King Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned.
Idi naibaga kenni Solomon a pimmanaw ni Shimei idiay Jerusalem ket napan biit idiay Gat,
42 So the king sent [a soldier] to summon Shimei and said to him, “I told you to solemnly promise, knowing that Yahweh [MTY] was listening, that you must not leave Jerusalem. I told you [RHQ], ‘Be sure that if you ever leave Jerusalem, you will be executed.’ And you replied [RHQ] to me, ‘What you have said is good; I will do what you have said.’
nangibaon ni Solomon iti mangayab kenni Shimei, ket kinunana kenkuana, “Saan kadi a pinagsapataka iti nagan ni Yahweh, ken pinatalgedak a kunak, 'Iti kanito a rummuarka ket mapanka iti sabali a lugar, ammomon nga awan duadua a matayka'? Ket kinunam kaniak, 'Nasayaat ti imbagam.'
43 So why did you not do what you solemnly promised to Yahweh? Why did you disobey what I commanded you?”
Apay ngarud a saanmo a tinungpal ti sapatam kenni Yahweh, ken ti imbilinko kenka?”
44 The king also said to Shimei, “You know all the evil things that you did to my father David. So Yahweh will now punish you for the evil things that you did.
Kinuna pay ti ari kenni Shimei, “Ammom iti pusom dagiti kinadangkes nga inaramidmo kenni David nga amak. No kasta ngarud, isubli met laeng ni Yahweh kenka ti kinadangkesmo.
45 But Yahweh will bless me, and he will enable David’s descendants [MTY] to rule forever.”
Ngem mabendisionanto ni Ari Solomon, ket maisaadto iti agnanayon ti trono ni David iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.”
46 Then the king gave an order to Benaiah, and he went and killed Shimei. So Solomon was completely in control of the kingdom.
Isu nga imbaon ti ari ni Benaias nga anak ni Jehoyada, rimmuar isuna ket pinatayna ni Shimei. Isu a napatalgedan ti turay iti ima ni Solomon.
