1 H addaba waxaa soo dhowaaday wakhtigii Daa'uud dhiman lahaa; oo wuxuu amray wiilkiisii Sulaymaan oo ku yidhi,

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

2 A nigu waxaan marayaa jidka dadka dhulka oo dhan; haddaba xoog yeelo, oo raganimadaada muuji,

“I go the way of all the earth; be strong, therefore, and prove yourself a man.

3 o o Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahna amarkiisa xaji, si aad jidadkiisa ugu socoto, oo aad u dhawrto qaynuunnadiisa, iyo amarradiisa, iyo xukummadiisa, iyo markhaatifurkiisa, si waafaqsan waxa ku qoran sharciga Muuse inaad ku liibaantid waxa aad samaynaysid oo dhan, iyo meel kastoo aad u jeesatoba;

And keep the charge of the Lord your God: to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commandments, His judgments, and His testimonies, as it is written in the Law of Moses, that you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn;

4 i nuu Rabbigu oofiyo eraygiisii uu igaga hadlay, isagoo leh, Carruurtaadu hadday jidkooda dhawraan, oo ay qalbigooda oo dhan iyo naftooda oo dhanba si run ah hortayda ugu socdaan, waayi maysid nin carshiga dalka Israa'iil ku fadhiista.

that the Lord may fulfill His word which He spoke concerning me, saying, ‘If your sons take heed to their way, to walk before Me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul,’ He said, ‘you shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.’

5 O o weliba waad og tahay wixii uu Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay igu sameeyey, ee uu ku sameeyey labadii sirkaal oo ciidanka dalka Israa'iil, kuwaasoo ahaa Abneer ina Neer, iyo Camaasaa ina Yeter, ee uu labadaba dilay, iyo inuu wakhtiga nabadda dhiiggii dagaalka daadiyey, oo uu dhiiggii dagaalkana mariyey dhex-xidhkiisa dhexda ugu xidhnaa, iyo kabahiisa cagaha ugu jiray.

“Moreover you know also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two commanders of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner and Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed. And he shed the blood of war in peacetime, and put the blood of war on his belt that was around his waist, and on his sandals that were on his feet.

6 H addaba wixii kula wanaagsan samee, oo cirrada madaxiisu yaanay nabad ku gelin xabaasha.

Therefore do according to your wisdom, and do not let his gray hair go down to the grave in peace.

7 L aakiinse u roonow wiilasha Barsillay kan reer Gilecaad, oo iyagu ha noqdeen kuwa ka mid ah kuwa miiskaaga wax ka cuna, waayo, saasay iigu yimaadeen markaan walaalkaa Absaaloom ka cararay.

“But show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table, for so they came to me when I fled from Absalom your brother.

8 O o bal eeg, waxaa kula jooga Shimcii ina Geeraa, oo ah reer Benyaamiinka deggan Baxuuriim, kaasoo habaar xun igu habaaray maalintii aan Maxanayim tegey; laakiinse wuu igaga hor yimid Webi Urdun, oo i soo dhoweeyey, oo anna waxaan isaga ugu dhaartay oo ku idhi, Seef kugu dili maayo.

“And see, you have with you Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite from Bahurim, who cursed me with a malicious 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 you to death with the sword.’

9 S idaas daraaddeed inuu eedlaawe yahay ha u qaadan, waayo, waxaad tahay nin xigmad leh, oo waad garan doontaa waxa kuu eg inaad ku samayso, oo waa inaad cirrada madaxiisa dhiig xabaasha la gelisaa.

Now therefore, do not hold him guiltless, for you are a wise man and know what you ought to do to him; but bring his gray hair down to the grave with blood.” Death of David

10 O o Daa'uudna wuu dhintay oo la seexday awowayaashiis, oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii Daa'uud.

So David rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David.

11 O o Daa'uudna wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil boqor u ahaa afartan sannadood; toddoba sannadood ayuu Xebroon ka taliyey, saddex iyo soddon sannadoodna ayuu Yeruusaalem ka taliyey.

The period that David reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years he reigned in Hebron, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years.

12 O o Sulaymaanna wuxuu ku fadhiistay carshigii aabbihiis Daa'uud, oo boqortooyadiisiina way sii dhisnaatay. Boqornimadii Sulaymaan Oo Dhisantay

Then Solomon sat on the throne of his father David; and his kingdom was firmly established. Solomon Executes Adonijah

13 M arkaasaa Adoniiyaah oo ay Haggiid dhashay u yimid Batshebac oo ahayd Sulaymaan hooyadiis. Oo iyana waxay ku tidhi, War ma nabad baad ku timid? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Haah, nabad baan ku imid.

Now Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. So she said, “Do you come peaceably?” And he said, “Peaceably.”

14 O o weliba wuxuu iyadii ku yidhi, Muraad baan kaa leeyahay, iyana waxay tidhi, Bal ii sheeg.

Moreover he said, “I have something to say to you.” And she said, “Say it.”

15 M arkaasuu ku yidhi, Waad og tahay inaan boqortooyada lahaa, oo ay dadkii dalka Israa'iil oo dhammu fiiro ii lahaayeen inaan boqor u noqdo, habase yeeshee boqortooyadii way rogmatay, oo waxaa yeeshay walaalkay, waayo, xagga Rabbiga buu ka helay.

Then he said, “You know that the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had set their expectations on me, that I should reign. However, the kingdom has been turned over, and has become my brother’s; for it was his from the Lord.

16 H addaba wax baan ku weyddiisanayaa, hana ii diidin. Iyana waxay tidhi, Bal ii sheeg.

Now I ask one petition of you; do not deny me.” And she said to him, “Say it.”

17 M arkaasuu yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, iila hadal Boqor Sulaymaan inuu i siiyo Abiishag tan reer Shuuneem aan guursadee, (waayo, Maya, ku odhan maayo.)

Then he said, “Please speak to King Solomon, for he will not refuse you, that he may give me Abishag the Shunammite as wife.”

18 M arkaasaa Batshebac waxay tidhi, Waa hagaag, boqorka waan kuula hadli doonaa.

So Bathsheba said, “Very well, I will speak for you to the king.”

19 S idaas daraaddeed Batshebac waxay u tagtay Boqor Sulaymaan inay ula hadasho Adoniiyaah. Boqorkiina wuu u sara joogsaday inuu iyada soo dhoweeyo, wuuna u foororsaday iyadii, markaasuu carshigiisii ku fadhiistay, oo wuxuu amray in carshi loo dhigo hooyadiis, markaasay midigtiisa fadhiisatay.

Bathsheba therefore went to King Solomon, to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her and bowed down to her, and sat down on his throne and had a throne set for the king’s mother; so she sat at his right hand.

20 K olkaasay tidhi, Wax yar baan kaa baryayaaye, hana ii diidin. Boqorkiina wuxuu ku yidhi, Hooyoy, ii sheeg, waayo, kuu diidi maayo.

Then she said, “I desire one small petition of you; do not refuse me.” And the king said to her, “Ask it, my mother, for I will not refuse you.”

21 M arkaasay tidhi, Abiishag tan reer Shuuneem ha la siiyo walaalkaa Adoniiyaah ha guursadee.

So she said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother as wife.”

22 K olkaasaa Boqor Sulaymaan hooyadiis ugu jawaabay, Abiishag tan reer Shuuneem maxaad Adoniiyaah ugu doonaysaa? Haddaba boqortooyadana u doon, waayo, isagu waa walaalkay iga weyn, u doon isaga, iyo wadaadka Aabyaataar, iyo Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay.

And King Solomon answered and said to his mother, “Now why do you ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also—for he is my older brother—for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.”

23 M arkaasaa Boqor Sulaymaan Rabbiga ku dhaartay, oo yidhi, Hadalkan uu Adoniiyaah ku hadlay hadduusan naftiisa ka gees noqon, Ilaah ha igu sameeyo saas iyo si ka sii badanba.

Then King Solomon swore by the Lord, saying, “May God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life!

24 H addaba waxaan ku dhaartay nolosha Rabbigii xoogga ii yeelay, oo igu fadhiisiyey carshigii aabbahay Daa'uud, oo reerka iigu yeelay siduu iigu ballanqaaday, hubaal Adoniiyaah maanta waa la dilayaa.

Now therefore, as the Lord lives, who has confirmed me and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has established a house for me, as He promised, Adonijah shall be put to death today!”

25 M arkaasaa Boqor Sulaymaan u diray Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, oo isna wuu dilay, Adoniiyaahna waa dhintay.

So King Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he struck him down, and he died. Abiathar Exiled, Joab Executed

26 O o boqorkiina wuxuu wadaadkii Aabyaataar ahaa ku yidhi, Waxaad tagtaa Canaatood iyo ilaa beerahaagii, waayo, waxaad istaahishaa in lagu dilo, laakiinse haatan ku dili maayo, waayo, aabbahay Daa'uud waad ku hor sidi jirtay sanduuqii Sayidka Rabbiga ah, oo waxaa lagugu dhibi jiray wax kasta oo aabbahay lagu dhibi jiray.

And to Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to Anathoth, to your own fields, for you are deserving of death; but I will not put you to death at this time, because you carried the ark of the Lord God before my father David, and because you were afflicted every time my father was afflicted.”

27 S idaasuu Sulaymaan Aabyaataar uga eryay wadaadnimadii Rabbiga inuu oofiyo Eraygii Rabbiga ee uu kaga hadlay reerka Ceelii xagga Shiiloh.

So Solomon removed Abiathar from being priest to the Lord, that he might fulfill the word of the Lord which He spoke concerning the house of Eli at Shiloh.

28 M arkaasaa warkii u yimid Yoo'aab, waayo, Yoo'aab wuxuu raacay Adoniiyaah in kastoo uusan raacin Absaaloom. Kolkaasaa Yoo'aab u cararay Teendhadii Rabbiga, oo qabsaday geesihii meeshii allabariga.

Then news came to Joab, for Joab had defected to Adonijah, though he had not defected to Absalom. So Joab fled to the tabernacle of the Lord, and took hold of the horns of the altar.

29 M arkaasaa taas loo soo sheegay Boqor Sulaymaan, oo lagu yidhi, Yoo'aab Teendhadii Rabbiga ayuu u cararay, oo wuxuu ag jooga meeshii allabariga. Dabadeedna Sulaymaan wuxuu diray Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Tag oo soo dil.

And King Solomon was told, “Joab has fled to the tabernacle of the Lord; there he is, by the altar.” Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, strike him down.”

30 M arkaasaa Benaayaah Teendhadii Rabbiga soo galay oo ku yidhi, Boqorkii wuxuu leeyahay, Soo bax. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Maya, laakiinse halkanaan ku dhimanayaa. Oo Benaayaah haddana boqorkii buu u war keenay oo ku yidhi, Yoo'aab saasuu yidhi, oo saasuu iigu jawaabay.

So Benaiah went to the tabernacle of the Lord, and said to him, “Thus says the king, ‘Come out!’” And he said, “No, but I will die here.” And Benaiah brought back word to the king, saying, “Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.”

31 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi, Siduu kugu yidhi yeel, oo dil isaga, oo soo xabaal, inaad aniga iyo reerka aabbahayba naga dul qaaddid dhiiggii Yoo'aab sababla'aanta ku daadiyey.

Then the king said to him, “Do as he has said, and strike him down and bury him, that you may take away from me and from the house of my father the innocent blood which Joab shed.

32 O o Rabbiguna dhiiggiisa wuxuu ku celin doonaa madaxiisa, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu dilay laba nin oo isaga ka xaq badan oo ka wanaagsan, seef buuna ku dilay, aabbahay Daa'uudna taas waxba kama ogayn, oo kuwaasuna waxay ahaayeen Abneer ina Neer oo sirkaal u ahaa ciidanka dalka Israa'iil, iyo Camaasaa ina Yeter oo sirkaal u ahaa ciidanka dalka Yahuudah.

So the Lord will return his blood on his head, because he struck down two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword—Abner the son of Ner, the commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, the commander of the army of Judah—though my father David did not know it.

33 S aas aawadeed dhiiggoodii wuxuu ku noqon doonaa madaxa Yoo'aab, iyo madaxa farcankiisa weligiis, laakiinse Daa'uud, iyo farcankiisa, iyo reerkiisa, iyo carshigiisaba nabad baa xagga Rabbiga uga ahaan doonta weligeed.

Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab and upon the head of his descendants forever. But upon David and his descendants, upon his house and his throne, there shall be peace forever from the Lord.”

34 M arkaasaa Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac tegey, oo intuu ku kor dhacay ayuu dilay, oo waxaa lagu aasay gurigiisii cidlada ku yiil.

So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and struck and killed him; and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

35 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu meeshiisii ku beddelay oo ciidankii madax uga dhigay Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac. Oo meeshii Aabyaataarna wuxuu ku beddelay wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa.

The king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his place over the army, and the king put Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar. Shimei Executed

36 M arkaasaa boqorkii u cid diray oo u yeedhay Shimcii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Yeruusaalem guri ka dhiso, oo halkaas iska deg, oo mar dambe meella ha uga bixin.

Then the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there anywhere.

37 W aayo, maalintii aad baxdo oo aad durdurka Qidroon ka gudubto, bal ogow hubaal inaad dhimanayso; dhiiggaaguna madaxaaguu ku oolli doonaa.

For it shall be, on the day you go out and cross the Brook Kidron, know for certain you shall surely die; your blood shall be on your own head.”

38 M arkaasaa Shimcii boqorkii ku yidhi, Hadalkaasu waa wanaagsan yahay, oo sidaad tidhi, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, waan yeeli doonaa, anigoo addoonkaaga ah. Oo Shimciina wakhti dheer ayuu Yeruusaalem degganaa.

And Shimei said to the king, “The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so your servant will do.” So Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

39 O o saddex sannadood dabadood, laba addoon oo Shimcii kuwiis ah ayaa u cararay xagga Aakiish ina Macakaah oo ahaa boqorkii Gad.

Now it happened at the end of three years, that two slaves of Shimei ran away to Achish the son of Maachah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, “Look, your slaves are in Gath!”

40 M arkaasaa Shimcii kacay, oo dameerkiisii kooraystay, oo wuxuu u tegey Aakiish oo Gad jooga inuu addoommadiisii ka doonto; oo Shimcii wuu tegey oo addoommadiisii ka soo kaxaystay Gad.

So Shimei arose, saddled his donkey, and went to Achish at Gath to seek his slaves. And Shimei went and brought his slaves from Gath.

41 M arkaasaa Sulaymaan waxaa loo soo sheegay in Shimcii Yeruusaalem ka kacay, oo uu Gad tegey, oo uu haddana soo noqday.

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

42 M arkaasaa boqorkii u cid diray oo Shimcii u yeedhay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War miyaanan Rabbiga kugu dhaarin, oo aanan hore kuugu sii sheegin, oo aanan kugu odhan, Ogow oo hubso, inaad xaqiiqa dhimanaysid maalintii aad baxdid oo aad meel kale u kacdid? Oo adna sow iguma aadan odhan, Hadalkaan maqlay waa wanaagsan yahay?

Then the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the Lord, and warn you, saying, ‘Know for certain that on the day you go out and travel anywhere, you shall surely die’? And you said to me, ‘The word I have heard is good.’

43 H addaba maxaad u dhawri weyday dhaartii Rabbiga iyo amarkii aan kugu amray?

Why then have you not kept the oath of the Lord and the commandment that I gave you?”

44 W eliba boqorkii wuxuu Shimcii ku yidhi, Waad wada og tahay sharka qalbigaaga ku jira oo aad aabbahay Daa'uud ku samaysay. Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu sharkaagii wuxuu ku soo celin doonaa madaxaaga.

The king said moreover to Shimei, “You know, as your heart acknowledges, all the wickedness that you did to my father David; therefore the Lord will return your wickedness on your own head.

45 L aakiinse anoo Boqor Sulaymaan ahu waan barakaysnaan doonaa, oo carshiga Daa'uudna weligiis wuu ku sii dhisnaan doonaa Rabbiga hortiisa.

But King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord forever.”

46 S idaas daraaddeed ayaa boqorkii amray Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac; kolkaasuu isna tegey oo dilay Shimcii, wuuna dhintay. Oo boqortooyadiina waxay ku sii dhisnaatay gacantii Sulaymaan.

So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he went out and struck him down, and he died. Thus the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
