¹And the days of David were at hand that he should die; and he enjoined Solomon his son saying,

¹A keď sa priblížily dni Dávidove, aby zomrel, prikázal Šalamúnovi, svojmu synovi, a riekol:

²I go the way of all the earth: be of good courage therefore, and be a man;

²Ja odchádzam cestou celej zeme, preto buď silný a buď mužom!

³and keep the charge of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest and whithersoever thou turnest thyself;

³A ostríhaj príkazy Hospodina, svojho Boha, chodiac po jeho cestách a ostríhajúc jeho ustanovenia, jeho prikázania, jeho súdy a jeho svedoctvá, jako je napísané v zákone Mojžišovom, aby si rozumne konal všetko, čo budeš činiť a rozumne si počínal všade, kamkoľvek sa obrátiš,

⁴that Jehovah may confirm his word which he spoke concerning me, saying, If thy sons 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 upon the throne of Israel.

⁴aby Hospodin postavil svoje slovo, ktoré hovoril o mne povediac: Ak budú ostríhať tvoji synovia svoju cestu tak, aby chodili predo mnou v pravde celým svojím srdcom a celou svojou dušou, tak povedal: Nebude ti vyplienený muž s trónu Izraelovho.

⁵And thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to 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 upon his sandals that were on his feet.

⁵A vieš aj ty, čo mi urobil Joáb, syn Ceruje, čo urobil dvom veliteľom vojsk Izraelových, Abnerovi, synovi Nérovmu, a Amazovi, synovi Jeterovmu, že ich zavraždil a vylial vojnovú krv v pokoji a dal vojnovú krv na svoj opasok, ktorý je na jeho bedrách, i na svoju obuv, ktorá je na jeho nohách.

⁶And thou shalt do according to thy wisdom, and not let his hoar head go down to Sheol in peace.

⁶A učiníš podľa svojej múdrosti a nedáš jeho šedinám sostúpiť v pokoji do hrobu.

⁷But shew kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table; for so they came up to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.

⁷A synom Barzillaja Gileádskeho učiníš milosť, a budú medzi jediacimi z tvojho stola, lebo tak prišli ku mne, keď som utekal pred Absalomom, tvojím bratom.

⁸And behold, there is with thee Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjaminite of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse in the day that I went to Mahanaim; but he came down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swore to him by Jehovah saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.

⁸A hľa, je u teba aj Šimei, syn Géru, syn Jeminiho, z Bachuríma, ktorý mi ukrutne zlorečil toho dňa, keď som išiel do Machnaima, a ktorý mi potom prišiel vústrety dolu k Jordánu, a ktorému som vtedy prisahal na Hospodina povediac: Nezabijem ťa mečom.

⁹And now hold him not guiltless; for thou art a wise man, and thou shalt know what thou oughtest to do to him; but bring his hoar head down to Sheol with blood.

⁹A tak teraz nedaj, aby bol bez viny; lebo si múdry muž a budeš vedieť, čo mu máš učiniť a spôsobíš to, aby jeho šediny sostúpily v krvi do hrobu.

¹⁰And David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

¹⁰Potom usnul Dávid a ležal so svojimi otcami a bol pochovaný v meste Dávidovom.

¹¹And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: he reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

¹¹A dní, ktoré kraľoval Dávid nad Izraelom, bolo štyridsať rokov; v Hebrone kraľoval sedem rokov a v Jeruzaleme kraľoval tridsaťtri rokov.

¹²And Solomon sat on the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.

¹²A tak sedel Šalamún na tróne Dávida, svojho otca, a jeho kráľovstvo sa upevnilo a stálo veľmi pevne.

¹³And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.

¹³Potom prišiel Adoniáš, syn Chaggity, k Bat-šebe, matke Šalamúnovej, ktorá povedala: Či je tvoj príchod pokojný?! A povedal: Pokojný.

¹⁴And he said, I have something to say to thee. And she said, Speak.

¹⁴Potom povedal: Mám k tebe slovo. A ona riekla: Hovor!

¹⁵And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had set their faces on me that I should reign; but the kingdom is turned about and is become my brother's, for it was his from Jehovah.

¹⁵A povedal: Ty vieš, že moje bolo kráľovstvo, a že na mňa boli obrátili, celý Izrael, svoju tvár, aby som kraľoval; ale potom sa zvrtlo kráľovstvo a dostalo sa môjmu bratovi, lebo od Hospodina sa mu dostalo.

¹⁶And now I ask one petition of thee; refuse me not. And she said to him, Speak.

¹⁶A tak teraz len jednu vec žiadam od teba, neodby ma! Na to mu riekla: Hovor!

¹⁷And he said, Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king -- for he will not refuse thee -- that he give me Abishag the Shunammite as wife.

¹⁷A povedal: Povedz, prosím, kráľovi Šalamúnovi, lebo teba neodbyje, aby mi dal Abizagu Sunamitskú za ženu.

¹⁸And Bathsheba said, Well, I will speak for thee to the king.

¹⁸A Bat-šeba riekla: Dobre, ja budem hovoriť o tebe s kráľom.

¹⁹And Bathsheba went to king Solomon, to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself to her, and sat down on his throne; and he caused a throne to be set for the king's mother, and she sat on his right hand.

¹⁹Tak vošla Bat-šeba ku kráľovi Šalamúnovi, aby mu hovorila o Adoniášovi. A kráľ jej povstal vústrety a keď sa jej poklonil, posadil sa na svojej stolici a dal postaviť stolicu i matke kráľovej, ktorá si sadla po jeho pravici.

²⁰Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; refuse me not. And the king said to her, Ask, my mother, for I will not refuse thee.

²⁰A riekla: Jednu malú vec žiadam od teba, neodby ma! A kráľ jej povedal: Žiadaj, moja matko, lebo ťa neodbyjem.

²¹And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother as wife.

²¹A riekla: Nech sa dá Abizaga Sunamitská Adoniášovi, tvojmu bratovi, za ženu!

²²And king Solomon answered and said to 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.

²²Na to odpovedal kráľ Šalamún a riekol svojej matke: A prečože ty žiadaš Abizagu Sunamitskú pre Adoniáša? Ale žiadaj pre neho kráľovstvo, lebo on je môj brat, starší odo mňa! Áno pre neho a pre Ebiatára, kňaza, a pre Joába, syna Ceruje!

²³And king Solomon swore by Jehovah saying, God do so to me, and more also, -- Adonijah has spoken this word against his own life!

²³A kráľ Šalamún prisahal na Hospodina a riekol: Tak nech mi učiní Bôh a tak nech pridá, že proti svojej duši hovoril Adoniáš toto slovo.

²⁴And now [as] Jehovah liveth, who has established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.

²⁴A tak teraz ako že žije Hospodin, ktorý ma upevnil a dal, aby som sedel na tróne Dávida, svojho otca, a ktorý mi učinil dom, tak ako hovoril, že dnes zomrie Adoniáš!

²⁵And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; who fell on him, that he died.

²⁵Vtedy poslal kráľ Šalamún po Benaiášovi, synovi Jehojadovom, vykonať rozsudok, a uderil na neho, a zomrel.

²⁶And the king said to Abiathar the priest, Go to Anathoth, to thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death; but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou didst bear the ark of Adonai Jehovah before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.

²⁶A Ebiatárovi, kňazovi, povedal kráľ: Iď do Anatota na svoje pole, lebo si mužom smrti, ale ťa nezabijem tohoto dňa, lebo si nosil truhlu Panovníka Hospodina pred Dávidom, mojím otcom, a preto, že si znášal všetky útrapy, ktoré znášal môj otec.

²⁷And Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest to Jehovah, to fulfil the word of Jehovah, which he had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

²⁷A tak zahnal Šalamún Ebiatára, aby nebol kňazom Hospodinovi, aby naplnil slovo Hospodinovo, ktoré hovoril o dome Éliho v Síle.

²⁸And the report came to Joab (for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he had not turned after Absalom); and Joab fled to the tent of Jehovah, and caught hold of the horns of the altar.

²⁸A prišla zvesť o tom až k Joábovi. Lebo Joáb bol postúpil po Adoniášovi, hoci po Absalomovi nebol postúpil. Vtedy utiekol Joáb do stánu Hospodinovho a chytil sa rohov oltára.

²⁹And it was told king Solomon that Joab had fled to the tent of Jehovah; and behold, he is by the altar. And Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall on him.

²⁹A bolo oznámené kráľovi Šalamúnovi, že Joáb utiekol do stánu Hospodinovho a že hľa, stojí vedľa oltára. A Šalamún poslal Benaiáša, syna Jehojadovho, a riekol: Idi, obor sa na neho!

³⁰And Benaiah came to the tent of Jehovah and said to him, Thus saith the king: Come forth. And he said, No; for I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.

³⁰A keď prišiel Benaiáš do stánu Hospodinovho, riekol mu: Takto hovorí kráľ: Vyjdi! A on povedal: Nie, ale tu zomriem. A Benaiáš doniesol kráľovi odpoveď a riekol: Takto hovorí Joáb a takto mi odpovedal.

³¹And the king said to him, Do as he has said, and fall upon him, and bury him; and take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me and from the house of my father.

³¹A kráľ mu povedal: Učiň tak, ako hovoril, obor sa na neho a pochovaj ho, a odpraceš krv, vyliatu bez príčiny, ktorú vylial Joáb, so mňa a s domu môjho otca.

³²And Jehovah shall requite the blood which he shed upon his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, without my father David's knowledge: Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.

³²A Hospodin navráti jeho krv na jeho hlavu, pretože sa oboril na dvoch mužov, spravedlivejších a lepších, ako je sám, a zavraždil ich mečom, ale môj otec Dávid nevedel o tom, Abnera, syna Nérovho, veliteľa vojska Izraelovho, a Amazu, syna Jeterovho, veliteľa vojska Júdovho.

³³And their blood shall be requited upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever; but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from Jehovah.

³³A ich krv sa navráti na hlavu Joábovu a na hlavu jeho semena až na veky. Ale Dávid a jeho semeno, jeho dom a jeho trón nech majú pokoj až na veky od Hospodina.

³⁴And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and fell upon him, and put him to death; and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

³⁴Vtedy odišiel Benaiáš, syn Jehojadov, hore a oboriac sa na neho zabil ho, a bol pochovaný vo svojom dome na púšti.

³⁵And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his stead over the host; and Zadok the priest the king put in the stead of Abiathar.

³⁵A kráľ dal Benaiáša, syna Jehojadovho, miesto neho, aby bol nad vojskom, a Cádoka, kňaza, dal kráľ miesto Ebiatára.

³⁶And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Build thee a house in Jerusalem, and abide there, and go not forth thence anywhere.

³⁶Potom poslal kráľ a povolal Šimeiho a riekol mu: Vystav si dom v Jeruzaleme, a budeš bývať tam a nevyjdeš odtiaľ ani sem ani ta.

³⁷And it shall be that on the day thou goest forth, and passest over the torrent of Kidron, ... know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.

³⁷A bude, že toho dňa, ktorého vyjdeš a prejdeš cez potok Kidron, vedz istotne, že zomrieš, tvoja krv bude na tvoju hlavu.

³⁸And Shimei said to the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king has said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

³⁸A Šimei povedal kráľovi: To je dobré slovo. Jako hovoril môj pán kráľ, tak učiní tvoj služobník. A tak býval Šimei v Jeruzaleme mnoho dní.

³⁹And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two servants of Shimei's ran away to Achish son of Maachah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei saying, Behold, thy servants are in Gath.

³⁹Ale stalo sa po troch rokoch, že utiekli Šimeimu dvaja sluhovia k Achišovi, synovi Maachu, kráľovi Gátu. A oznámili Šimeimu: Hľa, tvoji sluhovia sú v Gáte.

⁴⁰Then 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.

⁴⁰A Šimei vstal, osedlal svojho osla a odišiel do Gátu k Achišovi hľadať svojich sluhov. A tedy odišiel Šimei a doviedol svojich sluhov z Gátu.

⁴¹And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and had come again.

⁴¹A Šalamúnovi bolo oznámené, že Šimei odišiel z Jeruzalema do Gátu a že sa navrátil.

⁴²And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not make thee swear by Jehovah, and protest to thee, saying, Know for certain, that on the day thou goest forth, and walkest abroad anywhere, thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst to me, The word that I have heard is good.

⁴²Vtedy poslal kráľ, povolal Šimeiho a riekol mu: Či som ťa nezaviazal prísahou na Hospodina a neosvedčil som proti tebe povediac, že toho dňa, ktorého vyjdeš a pojdeš niekam sem alebo ta, vedz istotne, že zomrieš? A povedal si mi: To je dobré slovo, ktoré som počul.

⁴³Why then hast thou not kept the oath of Jehovah, and the commandment that I charged thee with?

⁴³Nuž prečože si neostríhal prísahy Hospodinovej a prikázania, ktoré som ti prikázal?

⁴⁴And the king said to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness of which thy heart is conscious, which thou didst to David my father; and Jehovah returns thy wickedness upon thine own head;

⁴⁴A taktiež povedal kráľ Šimeimu: Ty vieš všetko to zlé, o ktorom vie tvoje srdce, ktoré si učinil Dávidovi, môjmu otcovi, a tak teraz navráti Hospodin tvoje zlo na tvoju hlavu.

⁴⁵and king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before Jehovah for ever.

⁴⁵Ale kráľ Šalamún bude požehnaný, i trón Dávidov bude stáť pevne pred Hospodinom až na veky.

⁴⁶And the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; who went out and fell upon him, and he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.

⁴⁶A kráľ rozkázal Benaiášovi, synovi Jehojadovmu, ktorý vyšiel a oboril sa na neho, a zomrel. A kráľovstvo stálo pevne v ruke Šalamúnovej.
