¹Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he couldn’t keep warm.

¹Haddaba Boqor Daa'uud wuu gaboobay, da' buuna la dhacay, oo waxay huwiyeen dhar, laakiinse kulayl ma uu helin.

²Therefore his servants said to him, “Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin. Let her stand before the king, and cherish him; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm.”

²Sidaas daraaddeed addoommadiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Boqorow, Sayidkaygiiyow, ha laguu doono gabadh dhallinyar oo bikrad ah, oo taasu ha istaagto hortaada, waxna ha kuu tarto, oo laabtaadana ha ku jiifto, si aad kulayl u hesho, Boqorow, Sayidkaygiiyow.

³So they sought for a beautiful young lady throughout all the borders of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

³Sidaas daraaddeed gabadh qurxoon ayay ka doondooneen dalkii Israa'iil oo dhan, oo waxay soo heleen Abiishag oo ahayd reer Shuuneem, oo taas bay boqorkii u keeneen.

⁴The young lady was very beautiful; and she cherished the king, and ministered to him; but the king didn’t know her intimately.

⁴Oo gabadhuna aad bay u qurxoonayd, oo boqorkiina wax bay u tari jirtay, oo u adeegi jirtay, laakiinse boqorku iyadii ma uu taaban.

⁵Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” Then he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

⁵Markaasaa Adoniiyaah oo ay Haggiid dhashay isweyneeyey, oo yidhi, Anigaa boqor noqon doona; oo wuxuu diyaarsaday gaadhifardood iyo rag fardooley ah, iyo konton nin oo hortiisa orodda.

⁶His father had not displeased him at any time in saying, “Why have you done so?” and he was also a very handsome man; and he was born after Absalom.

⁶Oo aabbihiisna marna kama calool xumayn isagii oo kuma odhan, War maxaad saas u yeeshay? Wuxuuna ahaa nin qurux badan, oo Absaaloom dabadiis dhashay.

⁷He conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him.

⁷Oo isna wuxuu la hadlay Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay, iyo wadaadkii Aabyaataar; oo iyana intay Adoniiyaah raaceen ayay caawiyeen.

⁸But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.

⁸Laakiinse Saadooq oo ahaa wadaad, iyo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, iyo Nebi Naataan, iyo Shimcii iyo Reecii, iyo raggii xoogga badnaa oo Daa'uud lahaa midkoodna Adoniiyaah lama jirin.

⁹Adonijah killed sheep and cattle and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En Rogel; and he called all his brothers, the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah, the king’s servants:

⁹Markaasaa Adoniiyaah wuxuu ido iyo dibi iyo neefaf shishilis ku qalay meel u dhow dhagaxa Soxeled oo ku dhinac yaal Ceyn Rogeel, oo wuxuu u wada yeedhay walaalihiis ilmo boqor, iyo raggii reer Yahuudah oo boqorka addoommadiisa ahaa oo dhan.

¹⁰but Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he didn’t call.

¹⁰Laakiinse uma uu yeedhin Nebi Naataan, iyo Benaayaah, iyo raggii xoogga badnaa, iyo walaalkiis Sulaymaan.

¹¹Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Haven’t you heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith reigns, and David our lord doesn’t know it?

¹¹Markaasaa Naataan la hadlay Batshebac oo Sulaymaan hooyadiis ahayd, oo ku yidhi, Naa miyaadan maqlin inuu boqor noqday Adoniiyaah kii ay Haggiid dhashay, oo sayidkeenna Daa'uudna uusan taas ogayn?

¹²Now therefore come, please let me give you counsel, that you may save your own life, and the life of your son Solomon.

¹²Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waan ku baryayaaye, Bal kaalay aan kula taliyee, si aad u badbaadiso naftaada iyo nafta wiilkaaga Sulaymaanba.

¹³Go in to king David, and tell him, ‘Didn’t you, my lord, king, swear to your handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? Why then does Adonijah reign?’

¹³Haddaba tag oo u gal Boqor Daa'uud, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, miyaadan anoo addoontaada ah iigu dhaaran oo odhan, Hubaal dabaday waxaa boqor ahaan doona wiilkaaga Sulaymaan, carshigayguuna ku fadhiisan doonaa? Haddaba Adoniiyaah muxuu boqor u noqday?

¹⁴Behold, while you yet talk there with the king, I also will come in after you, and confirm your words.”

¹⁴Oo bal eeg, intaad boqorka la hadlayso ayaan anna kaa daba iman doonaa, oo waxaan sii adkayn doonaa erayadaada.

¹⁵Bathsheba went in to the king into the room. The king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering to the king.

¹⁵Markaasaa Batshebac waxay boqorkii ugu gashay qolkii, oo boqorkuna aad buu u gaboobay; oo waxaa boqorka u adeegaysay Abiishag tii reer Shuuneem.

¹⁶Bathsheba bowed, and showed respect to the king. The king said, “What would you like?”

¹⁶Oo Batshebacna intay foororsatay ayay boqorkii u sujuudday. Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi, Naa maxaad doonaysaa?

¹⁷She said to him, “My lord, you swore by Yahweh “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations. your God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” to your handmaid, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’

¹⁷Markaasay ku tidhi, Sayidow, anoo addoontaada ah waxaad iigu dhaaratay magaca Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah, adoo leh, Hubaal dabaday waxaa boqor ahaan doona wiilkaaga Sulaymaan, carshigayguuna ku fadhiisan doonaa.

¹⁸Now, behold, Adonijah reigns; and you, my lord the king, don’t know it.

¹⁸Oo haddaba bal eeg, waxaa boqor ah Adoniiyaah, oo adna, sayidow, boqorkaygiiyow, taas ma ogid!

¹⁹He has slain cattle and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the army; but he hasn’t called Solomon your servant.

¹⁹Oo isagu wuxuu qalay dibi iyo neefaf shishilis iyo ido badan, oo wuxuu u yeedhay ilmo boqor oo dhan, iyo wadaadka Aabyaataar ah, iyo Yoo'aab oo ah sirkaalkii ciidanka; laakiinse uma uu yeedhin addoonkaaga Sulaymaan.

²⁰You, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, that you should tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

²⁰Oo adna, sayidow, boqorkaygiiyow, indhihii dadka dalka Israa'iil oo dhammu adigay ku soo fiirinayaan, inaad u sheegtid qofka ku fadhiisan doona carshigaaga dabadaa, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow.

²¹Otherwise it will happen, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.”

²¹Haddii kalese, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, markaad dhimatid oo aad awowayaashaa la seexatid, aniga iyo wiilkayga Sulaymaanba waxaa lagu tirin doonaa kuwa dembaabay.

²²Behold, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

²²Oo bal eeg, intii ay weli boqorkii la hadlaysay ayaa Nebi Naataan soo galay.

²³They told the king, saying, “Behold, Nathan the prophet!” When he had come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

²³Oo waxaa boqorkii loo soo sheegay, oo lagu yidhi, Waa kan Nebi Naataan. Oo isna markuu soo galay, oo uu boqorkii hor yimid, ayuu ku sujuuday boqorka hortiisa, oo wejigiisuu dhulka saaray.

²⁴Nathan said, “My lord, king, have you said, ‘Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne?’

²⁴Markaasaa Naataan wuxuu yidhi, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, ma waxaad tidhi, Aniga dabaday waxaa boqor ahaan doona Adoniiyaah, carshigayguuna ku fadhiisan doonaa?

²⁵For he is gone down this day, and has slain cattle and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king’s sons, and the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest. Behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and say, ‘Long live king Adonijah!’

²⁵Waayo, isagu maantuu tegey, oo qalay dibi iyo neefaf shishilis, iyo ido badan, oo wuxuu u yeedhay ilma boqor oo dhan, iyo saraakiishii ciidanka, iyo wadaadka Aabyaataar ah, oo bal eeg, iyana hortiisay wax ku cunayaan, oo wax ku cabbayaan, oo waxay leeyihiin, Boqor Adoniiyaah ha noolaado.

²⁶But he hasn’t called me, even me your servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon.

²⁶Laakiinse anigoo addoonkaaga ah, iyo wadaadka Saadooq ah, iyo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, iyo addoonkaaga Sulaymaan ah midna uma uu yeedhin.

²⁷Is this thing done by my lord the king, and you haven’t shown to your servants who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?”

²⁷Ma adaa waxan sameeyey, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, adoo aan weli addoommadaada ogeysiin kii carshiga ku fadhiisan lahaa dabadaa, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow?

²⁸Then king David answered, “Call to me Bathsheba.” She came into the king’s presence, and stood before the king.

²⁸Markaasaa Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Iigu yeedha Batshebac. Oo iyana way timid, wayna soo gashay meeshii boqorku joogay, oo soo hor istaagtay boqorkii.

²⁹The king swore, and said, “As Yahweh lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,

²⁹Markaasaa boqorkii dhaartay oo yidhi, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbigii naftayda cidhiidhi oo dhan ka samatabbixiyey,

³⁰most certainly as I swore to you by Yahweh, the God of Israel, saying, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne in my place;’ most certainly so will I do this day.”

³⁰oo sida runta ah waxaan kuugu dhaartay Rabbiga ah Ilaaha dadka dalka Israa'iil, oo aan kugu idhi, Hubaal aniga dabaday waxaa boqor ahaan doona wiilkaaga Sulaymaan, carshigayguuna ku fadhiisan doonaa dabaday, haddaba sida runta ah taas maantaan samaynayaa.

³¹Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth, and showed respect to the king, and said, “Let my lord king David live forever!”

³¹Markaasaa Batshebac foororsatay oo wejigeedii dhulka saartay, oo waxay u sujuudday boqorkii oo tidhi, Boqor Daa'uudow, sayidkaygiiyow, weligaaba noolow.

³²King David said, “Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada.” They came before the king.

³²Oo Boqor Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Iigu yeedha wadaadka Saadooq ah, iyo Nebi Naataan, iyo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac. Oo iyana boqorkay hor yimaadeen.

³³The king said to them, “Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon.

³³Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Addoommadayda kaxaysta, oo wiilkayga Sulaymaanna waxaad fuushiisaan baqalkayga oo waxaad geeysaan Giixoon.

³⁴Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel. Blow the trumpet, and say, ‘Long live king Solomon!’

³⁴Oo wadaadka Saadooq ah iyo Nebi Naataan isaga halkaas ha ku subkeen, oo ha ka dhigeen boqorkii dalka Israa'iil; oo markaas waxaad afuuftaan buunka oo waxaad tidhaahdaan, Boqor Sulaymaan ha noolaado.

³⁵Then you shall come up after him, and he shall come and sit on my throne; for he shall be king in my place. I have appointed him to be prince over Israel and over Judah.”

³⁵Dabadeedna waa inaad soo raacdaan isaga, oo isna waa inuu yimaado, oo carshigayga ku fadhiisto; waayo, meeshaydii isagaa boqor ka noqon doona, oo waxaan ka dhigay amiir u taliya dalka Israa'iil iyo dalka Yahuudah.

³⁶Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, “Amen. May Yahweh, the God of my lord the king, say so.

³⁶Markaasaa Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac boqorkii ugu jawaabay, Aamiin, oo saas ha yidhaahdo Ilaahaagu, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow.

³⁷As Yahweh has been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.”

³⁷Oo sidii Rabbigu uu kuula jiray, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, saas oo kale ha ula jiro Sulaymaanna, oo carshigiisana ha ka dhigo mid ka sii weyn carshigaagii, Boqor Daa'uudow, sayidkaygiiyow.

³⁸So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride on king David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.

³⁸Sidaas daraaddeed wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa, iyo Nebi Naataan, iyo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, iyo reer Kereetiim, iyo kuwii reer Feleetiiba way wada tageen, oo Sulaymaanna waxay fuushiiyeen baqalkii Boqor Daa'uud, oo waxay isagii geeyeen Giixoon.

³⁹Zadok the priest took the horn of oil out of the Tent, and anointed Solomon. They blew the trumpet; and all the people said, “Long live king Solomon!”

³⁹Markaasaa wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa wuxuu Teendhada kala soo baxay geeskii saliidda ahaa, oo wuxuu ugu subkay Sulaymaan. Kolkaasay buunkii afuufeen, oo dadkii oo dhammuna waxay yidhaahdeen, Boqor Sulaymaan ha noolaado.

⁴⁰All the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth shook with their sound.

⁴⁰Oo dadkii oo dhammuna isagii bay soo raaceen, oo dadkii waxay ka dhawaajiyeen biibiilayaal, oo aad iyo aadna way u farxeen, sidaas daraaddeed dhulkii wuxuu la dillaacay dhawaaqoodii.

⁴¹Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard it as they had made an end of eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, “Why is this noise of the city being in an uproar?”

⁴¹Oo Adoniiyaah iyo martidiisii isaga la joogtay oo dhammuna taasay maqleen markay cunitaankii dhammeeyeen. Oo Yoo'aabna markuu maqlay dhawaaqii buunka ayuu yidhi, War waa maxay qaylada iyo buuqa magaaladii ka dhacay?

⁴²While he yet spoke, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonijah said, “Come in; for you are a worthy man, and bring good news.”

⁴²Oo intuu weli hadlayay ayaa waxaa yimid Yoonaataan wiilkii wadaadkii Aabyaataar ahaa. Kolkaasaa Adoniiyaah ku yidhi, Soo gal, waayo, nin ragaad tahay, oo war wanaagsan baad waddaaye.

⁴³Jonathan answered Adonijah, “Most certainly our lord king David has made Solomon king.

⁴³Markaasaa Yoonaataan ugu jawaabay Adoniiyaah, Sida runta ah Sayidkeenna Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu boqor ka dhigay Sulaymaan.

⁴⁴The king has sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they have caused him to ride on the king’s mule.

⁴⁴Oo boqorkiina wuxuu raaciyey isagii wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa iyo Nebi Naataan, iyo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, iyo kuwii reer Kereetiim, iyo kuwii reer Feleetii, oo iyana waxay isagii fuushiiyeen baqalkii boqorka!

⁴⁵Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon. They have come up from there rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that you have heard.

⁴⁵Markaasaa wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa iyo Nebi Naataan isagii u subkeen oo Giixoon ku boqreen, oo halkaasay ka yimaadeen iyagoo faraxsan, saas aawadeed ayay magaaladii haddana u buuqday. Oo qayladii aad maqasheen waa taas.

⁴⁶Also, Solomon sits on the throne of the kingdom.

⁴⁶Oo haddana Sulaymaan wuxuu ku fadhiistay carshigii boqortooyada.

⁴⁷Moreover the king’s servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, ‘May your God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne;’ and the king bowed himself on the bed.

⁴⁷Oo weliba addoommadii boqorku waxay u yimaadeen inay u duceeyaan sayidkeenna Boqor Daa'uud, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Ilaahaagu magaca Sulaymaan ha ka dhigo mid ka sii wanaagsan magacaaga, oo carshigiisana ha ka sii weyneeyo carshigaaga, oo boqorkiina wuxuu ku kor foororsaday sariirtiisii.

⁴⁸Also thus said the king, ‘Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, who has given one to sit on my throne this day, my eyes even seeing it.’”

⁴⁸Oo weliba boqorkii wuxuu yidhi, Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga ah Ilaaha dadka Israa'iil, oo maanta siiyey mid carshigaygii ku fadhiista iyadoo ay indhahaygu arkaan.

⁴⁹All the guests of Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and each man went his way.

⁴⁹Oo Adoniiyaah martidiisii oo dhammuna way wada cabsadeen, oo intay kaceen ayaa nin waluba meeshiisii tegey.

⁵⁰Adonijah feared because of Solomon; and he arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

⁵⁰Oo Adoniiyaahna wuxuu ka cabsaday Sulaymaan, markaasuu tegey oo qabsaday geesihii meeshii allabariga.

⁵¹It was told Solomon, saying, “Behold, Adonijah fears king Solomon; for, behold, 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.’”

⁵¹Oo waxaa taas loo soo sheegay Sulaymaan oo lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, Adoniiyaah ayaa kaa cabsaday, Boqor Sulaymaanow, oo wuxuu qabsaday geesihii meeshii allabariga, oo yidhi, Boqor Sulaymaan maanta ha ii dhaarto inuusan anoo addoonkiisa ah seef igu dilayn.

⁵²Solomon said, “If he shows himself a worthy man, not a hair of him shall fall to the earth; but if wickedness be found in him, he shall die.”

⁵²Markaasaa Sulaymaan wuxuu yidhi, Hadduu isu muujiyo sida nin qumman, xataa tin keliyuhu dhulka kaga dhici maayo, laakiinse haddii xumaan laga helo, wuu dhiman doonaa.Sidaas daraaddeed Boqor Sulaymaan wuu u cid diray, oo waxaa laga soo kaxeeyey meeshii allabariga. Oo isna wuu yimid oo u sujuuday Boqor Sulaymaan, oo Sulaymaanna wuxuu ku yidhi, Orod, gurigaagii tag.

⁵³So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. He came and bowed down to king Solomon; and Solomon said to him, “Go to your house.”

⁵³Sidaas daraaddeed Boqor Sulaymaan wuu u cid diray, oo waxaa laga soo kaxeeyey meeshii allabariga. Oo isna wuu yimid oo u sujuuday Boqor Sulaymaan, oo Sulaymaanna wuxuu ku yidhi, Orod, gurigaagii tag.
