¹Inkosi uDavide yayimdala, ineminyaka eminingi; bamembesa izingubo, kepha akabanga nakufudumala.

²Ngalokho izinceku zakhe zathi kuye: “Inkosi yami, inkosi, mayifunelwe intombi; makame phambi kwenkosi, ayiphathe, alale esifubeni sakho, ukuze inkosi yami, inkosi, ifudumale.

³Base befuna intombazane enhle kuyo yonke imingcele yakwa-Israyeli, bathola u-Abishagi waseShunemi, bamyisa enkosini.

⁴Intombazane yayiyinhle kakhulu, yayinakekela inkosi, yayikhonza, kepha inkosi yayingayazi.

⁵U-Adoniya indodana kaHagiti waziphakamisa, wathi: “Mina ngiyakuba yinkosi; wamlungisela izinqola, nabamahhashi, nabantu abangamashumi ayisihlanu ukuba bagijime phambi kwakhe.

⁶Uyise akakaze amshaye emehlweni ngokuthi: “Ukwenzeleni lokho na?” futhi wayeyindoda ebukekayo kakhulu; unina wamzala emva kuka-Abisalomu.

⁷Wabonisana noJowabe indodana kaSeruya no-Abiyathara umpristi, bamlandela u-Adoniya.

⁸Kepha uSadoki umpristi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada, noNathani umprofethi, noShimeyi, noReyi, namaqhawe kaDavide, babengekho ku-Adoniya.

⁹U-Adoniya wahlaba izimvu nezinkomo namathole akhuluphalisiweyo ngasetsheni laseSoheleti elingase-Eni Rogeli, wamema bonke abafowabo, amadodana enkosi, nawo wonke amadoda akwaJuda, izinceku zenkosi.

¹⁰Kodwa akabizanga umprofethi uNathani noBhenaya namaqhawe noSolomoni umfowabo.

¹¹Ngakho uNathani wakhuluma kuBhathisheba unina kaSolomoni wathi: Kawuzwanga yini ukuthi uAdonija indodana kaHagithi usezakuba yinkosi, lenkosi yethu uDavida kayikwazi?

¹²Woza-ke, ake ngikuphe iseluleko, ukuze usindise impilo yakho leyendodana yakho uSolomoni.

¹³Hamba ungene enkosini uDavida uthi kuyo: Wena nkosi yami, nkosi, kawufunganga yini kuyo incekukazi yakho, wathi: USolomoni indodana yakho uzakuba yinkosi emva kwami, njalo yena uzahlala esihlalweni sami sobukhosi? pho kungani u-Adoniya ebusa?

¹⁴Bheka, usakhuluma nenkosi, nami ngiyakungena emva kwakho, ngiqinise amazwi akho.

¹⁵UBati Sheba wayesengena ekamelweni lenkosi; u-Abishagi waseShunemi wayekhonza inkosi.

¹⁶UBati Sheba wakhothama, wakhuleka phambi kwenkosi. Inkosi yasisithi: Ufunani?

¹⁷Wathi kuye: “Nkosi yami, wafunga uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho encekwini yakho wathi: ‘Impela uSolomoni indodana yakho uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami, ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi.

¹⁸Bheka, manje u-Adoniya uyabusa; manje, nkosi yami, nkosi, awukwazi.

¹⁹Wahlaba izinkomo nezinkomo ezikhulupheleyo nezimvu ngobuningi, wabiza onke amadodana enkosi no-Abiyathara umpristi noJowabe induna yempi; kodwa kayibizanga inceku yakho uSolomoni.

²⁰Wena, nkosi yami, nkosi, amehlo ka-Israyeli wonke aphezu kwakho, ukuba ubatshele ukuthi ngubani oyakuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi, emva kwayo.

²¹Uma kungenjalo, uma inkosi yami, inkosi, isilele koyise, mina nendodana yami uSolomoni siyakuthiwa iziphambeko.

²²Bheka, esakhuluma nenkosi, kwangena umprofethi uNathani.

²³Bayitshela inkosi, bathi: “Nangu uNathani umprofethi.” Lapho engena phambi kwenkosi, wakhothama phambi kwenkosi ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi.

²⁴UNathani wathi: “Nkosi yami, nkosi, wena wathi: ‘U-Adoniya uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami, ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, na?

²⁵Ngoba wehlile namuhla wahlaba izinkomo nezinkomo ezikhulupheleyo nezimvu ngobuningi, wabiza wonke amadodana enkosi nezinduna zempi no-Abiyathara umpristi; bheka, bayadla, baphuze phambi kwakhe, bathi: ‘Mayisindise inkosi u-Adoniya!

²⁶Kepha mina, mina nceku yakho, noSadoki umpristi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada, noSolomoni inceku yakho, akasibizanga.

²⁷Le ndaba yenziwe yinkosi yami, inkosi, kodwa awuyazanga encekwini yakho ukuthi ngubani oyakuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi, emva kwayo?

²⁸Inkosi uDavida yasiphendula yathi: Ngibizeleni uBhathisheba. Wangena phambi kwenkosi, wema phambi kwenkosi.

²⁹Inkosi yasifunga yathi: Kuphila kukaJehova ohlengile umphefumulo wami osizini lonke!

³⁰njengalokho ngafunga kuwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngathi: ‘Impela uSolomoni indodana yakho uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami, ahlale esikhundleni sami esihlalweni sami sobukhosi; ngokuqinisekile ngizokwenza kanjalo namuhla.

³¹UBati Sheba wakhothamela phansi ngobuso, wadumisa inkosi, wathi: “Mayiphile inkosi yami, inkosi uDavide, kuze kube phakade.”

³²Inkosi uDavide yathi: “Ngibizeleni uZadoki umpristi noNathani umprofethi noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada. Basebesiza phambi kwenkosi.

³³Inkosi yasisithi kubo: Thathani izinceku zenkosi yenu, lihambe lani, uSolomoni indodana yami agibele umnyuzi wami, limehlisele eGihoni.

³⁴USadoki umpristi noNathani umprofethi bamgcobe khona abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli; nishaye icilongo nithi: ‘Mayisindiswe inkosi uSolomoni!

³⁵Bese nenyukela emva kwakhe, ukuze afike ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi; ngoba uzakuba yinkosi esikhundleni sami, njalo ngimbeke umbusi phezu kukaIsrayeli laphezu kukaJuda.

³⁶UBenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayiphendula inkosi, wathi: “Amen, usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami, inkosi, naye.

³⁷Njengalokhu uJehova wayenenkosi yami, inkosi, makabe noSolomoni, asenze isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sibe sikhulu kunesihlalo sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi uDavide.

³⁸Khona behla uSadoki umpristi, noNathani umprofethi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada, namaKreti namaPheleti, bamkhwelisa uSolomoni phezu komnyuzi wenkosi uDavide, bamyisa eGihoni.

³⁹USadoki umpristi wayesethatha uphondo lwamafutha etendeni, wamgcoba uSolomoni. Bavuthela amacilongo; bonke abantu bathi: “Mayisindiswe inkosi uSolomoni!

⁴⁰Bonke abantu bakhuphuka bamlandela, abantu babetha imitshingo, bajabula ngokujabula okukhulu, kwaze kwadabuka umhlaba ngokukhala kwabo.

⁴¹U-Adoniya nabo bonke abamenyiweyo ababe naye bezwa lokho sebeqedile ukudla. UJowabe esezwa ukukhala kwecilongo wathi: “Kungani lo msindo womuzi?

⁴²Esakhuluma, kwafika uJonathani indodana ka-Abiyathara umpristi; u-Adoniya wathi kuye: “Ngena!” ngoba uyindoda enesibindi futhi uletha izindaba ezinhle.

⁴³UJonathani waphendula, wathi ku-Adoniya: “Bheka, inkosi yethu, inkosi, uDavide, ibeke uSolomoni inkosi.

⁴⁴Inkosi yathuma uSadoki umpristi, noNathani umprofethi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada, namaKreti namaPheleti kanye naye, bamkhwelisa kuwo umnyuzi wenkosi.

⁴⁵USadoki umpristi noNathani umprofethi bamgcoba eGihoni ukuba abe yinkosi; Lo msindo owuzwile.

⁴⁶USolomoni laye uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi.

⁴⁷Ngaphezu kwalokho, izinceku zenkosi zifikile ukuyibusisa inkosi yethu, inkosi uDavide, zathi: ‘UNkulunkulu makenze igama likaSolomoni libe ngcono kunegama lakho, enze isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sibe sikhulu kunesihlalo sakho sobukhosi. Inkosi yakhothama embhedeni.

⁴⁸Yayisithi futhi inkosi: “Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli onginike namuhla umuntu ukuba ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, amehlo ami ekubona.”

⁴⁹Bonke abamenyiweyo ababe no-Adoniya besaba, basukuma, bahamba, kwaba yilowo nalowo ngendlela yakhe.

⁵⁰U-Adoniya wamesaba uSolomoni, wasuka wahamba, wabamba izimpondo ze-altare.

⁵¹Kwasekubikwa kuSolomoni kwathiwa: Khangela, uAdonija uyesaba inkosi uSolomoni, ngoba khangela, wathatha izimpondo zelathi wathi: Inkosi uSolomoni kayifunge kimi lamuhla ukuthi kayiyikubulala inceku yayo ngenkembak.

⁵²Wayesethi uSolomoni: “Uma eziveza eyindoda, akuyikuwela nolulodwa unwele lwakhe emhlabeni; kepha uma kufunyanwa ububi kuye, uyakufa.

⁵³Inkosi uSolomoni yayisithumela, bamehlisa e-altare. Wafika wakhuleka phambi kwenkosi uSolomoni; uSolomoni wathi kuyo: “Hamba uye endlini yakho.”
