1 Kings 1
Maori Bible
1 Na kua koroheketia a Kingi Rawiri, kua maha ona ra; a hipokina ana ia e ratou ki te kakahu; heoi kihai i mahana.
2 No reira ka mea atu ana tangata ki a ia, Me rapu tetahi kotiro, he wahine, ma toku ariki, ma te kingi: a me tu ia i mua i te kingi, mana hoki ia e atawhia; a me takoto ia ki tou uma, kia mahana ai toku ariki, te kingi.
3 Heoi rapua ana e ratou tetahi kotiro ataahua i nga rohe katoa o Iharaira; a kitea ana ko Apihaka Hunami, a kawea ana mai ia ki te kingi.
4 Na he ataahua rawa taua kotiro; a i atawhai ia i te kingi, i mahi hoki ki a ia: otira kihai te kingi i mohio ki a ia.
5 Katahi a Aronia tama a Hakiti ka whakanui i a ia, ka mea, Ko ahau hei kingi: a meatia ana e ia etahi hariata mana, me etahi tangata noho hoiho, e rima tekau hoki nga tangata hei rere i tona aroaro.
6 Kihai hoki tona papa i whakapouri i tona ngakau o mua iho, kihai i mea, He aha koe i pena ai? he tangata ataahua rawa hoki ia; a i whanau ia i muri i a Apoharama.
7 Na ka korerorero ia ki a Ioapa tama a Teruia, ki a Apiatara tohunga; a i whai raua i a Aronia, i awhina i a ia.
8 Ko Haroko tohunga ia, ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ko Natana matakite, ko Himei, ko Rei, ko nga tangata nunui a Rawiri, kihai ratou i uru ki ta Aronia.
9 Na ka patua e Aronia he hipi, he kau, me nga mea momona, ki te kohatu ki Toherete, ki tera i te taha o Enerokere, a karangatia ana e ia ona teina katoa, nga tama a te kingi, ratou ko nga tangata katoa o Hura, nga pononga a te kingi:
10 Ko Natana matakite ia, ko Penaia, ko nga tangata nunui, me tona teina, me Horomona, kihai i karangatia e ia.
11 Na ka korero a Natana ki a Patehepa whaea o Horomona, ka mea, Kahore ano koe i rongo ko Aronia tama a Hakiti te kingi, kahore hoki i te mohiotia e to tatou ariki, e Rawiri?
12 Na haere mai, tukua maku e hoatu he whakaaro ki a koe, kia ora ai koe, kia ora ai hoki tau tama, a Horomona.
13 Haere, a ka tae ki a Kingi Rawiri, ka mea ki a ia, Kihai ianei koe i oati mai, e toku ariki, e te kingi, ki tau pononga, i mea, Ko Horomona tonu ko tau tama hei kingi i muri i ahau, ko ia hoki hei noho i toku torona? Na, he aha i kingi ai a Aron ia?
14 Na, e korero ana ano koe i reira ki te kingi, ka tae atu hoki ahau i muri i a koe, a maku e whakakoia ki au korero.
15 Na ko te haerenga o Patehepa ki te whare moenga, ki te kingi: he koroheke rawa hoki te kingi; ko Apihaka Hunami ano ki te mahi i nga mea a te kingi.
16 Na ka tuohu a Patehepa, ka piko ki te kingi, a ka mea te kingi, He aha tau?
17 Na ka mea tera ki a ia, E toku ariki, i oatitia mai a Ihowa, tou Atua, e koe ki tau pononga, Ko Horomona tonu, ko tau tama hei kingi i muri i ahau, a ko ia hei noho ki toku torona.
18 Na, inaianei, kua kingi a Aronia; a kahore koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi, i te mohio:
19 A kua patua e ia he kau, he mea momona, he hipi, tona tini; kua karangatia hoki nga tama katoa a te kingi, me Apiatara tohunga, me Ioapa rangatira ope; ko Horomona ia, ko tau pononga, kihai i karangatia e ia.
20 Na ko koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi, e anga ana nga kanohi o Iharaira katoa ki a koe, kia whakaaturia ki a ratou ko wai e noho ki te torona o toku ariki, o te kingi, i muri i a ia.
21 Na tenei ake, hei te moenga o toku ariki, o te kingi, ki ona matua, ka kiia maua ko taku tama, ko Horomona, he hunga hara.
22 Na, i a ia ano e korero ana ki te kingi, ka tomo mai a Natana poropiti.
23 A ka korerotia e ratou ki te kingi, ka mea, Ko Natana poropiti tenei. Na haere ana tera ki te aroaro o te kingi, a piko ana, tapapa ana ki te whenua ki te aroaro o te kingi.
24 Na ka mea a Natana, E toku ariki, e te kingi, i mea ranei koe, Ko Aronia hei kingi i muri i ahau, a ko ia hei noho ki toku torona?
25 Kua haere hoki ia ki raro i tenei ra, a kei te patu tera i te kau, i te mea momona, i te hipi, tona tini; a kua karangatia e ia nga tama katoa a te kingi ratou ko nga rangatira ope, ko Apiatara tohunga: kei te kai ratou, kei te inu i tona aroaro; e ki ana, Kia ora a Kingi Aronia.
26 Ko ahau ia, ko tau pononga, ko matou ko Haroko tohunga, ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ko tau pononga, ko Horomona, kihai i karangatia e ia.
27 Na toku ariki ranei, na te kingi tenei mea, a kihai i whakaaturia e koe ki au pononga, ko wai e noho ki te torona o toku ariki, o te kingi i muri i a ia?
28 Na ka whakahoki a Kingi Rawiri, ka mea, Karangatia a Patehepa ki ahau. Na haere ana ia ki te aroaro o te kingi, a tu ana i te aroaro o te kingi.
29 Na ko te oatitanga a te kingi, ka mea, E ora ana a Ihowa i whakaora nei i ahau i nga mate katoa,
30 Ko aku oatitanga i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira ki a koe, i ahau i mea ra, He pono, ko Horomona, ko tau tama, hei kingi i muri i ahau, ko ia hoki hei noho ki toku torona i muri i ahau; he pono me pena ano e ahau i tenei ra.
31 Katahi ka tuohu a Patehepa, anga tonu tona mata ki te whenua, piko ana ki te aroaro o te kingi, ka mea, Kia ora toku ariki, a Kingi Rawiri, a ake ake.
32 Na ka mea a Kingi Rawiri, Karangatia a Haroko tohunga ki ahau, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara. Na haere ana mai ratou ki te aroaro o te kingi.
33 Na ka mea te kingi ki a ratou, Mauria nga pononga a to koutou ariki hei hoa mo koutou, ka whakanoho i a Horomona, i taku tama, ki toku muera, ki toku ake, ka kawe i a ia ki raro, ki Kihona:
34 A ma Haroko tohunga raua ko Natana poropiti ia e whakawahi ki reira hei kingi mo Iharaira; me whakatangi hoki te tetere, me mea, Kia ora a Kingi Horomona.
35 Na ka piki ake koutou i muri i a ia, a ka tae mai ia, ka noho ki toku torona; a hei kingi ia i muri i ahau; he mea whakarite naku hei rangatira ia mo Iharaira raua ko Hura.
36 Na ka whakahoki a Penaia tama a Iehoiara ki ta te kingi, ka mea, Amine: kia pena mai hoki te ki a Ihowa, a te Atua o toku ariki, o te kingi.
37 I toku ariki nei, i te kingi, a Ihowa, kia pena ano ia ki a Horomona; a kia whakanuia ake tona torona ki runga ake i te torona o toku ariki, o Kingi Rawiri.
38 Heoi ka haere a Haroko tohunga, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara, me nga Kereti, me nga Pereti ki raro, a whakanohoia ana e ratou a Horomona ki te muera o Kingi Rawiri, a kawea ana ki Kihona.
39 Na tangohia ana e Haroko tohunga te haona hinu i roto i te tapenakara, a whakawahia ana e ia a Horomona. Na ka whakatangihia e ratou te tetere; a ka mea katoa te iwi, Kia ora a Kingi Horomona.
40 Na piki ake ana te iwi katoa i muri i a ia, me te whakatangi te iwi i nga putorino; nui atu hoki te koa i koa ai ratou, ngatata ana te whenua i to ratou hamama.
41 Na ka rongo a Aronia ratou ko ana manuhiri i a ratou e whakamutu ana i ta ratou kai. A, no te rongonga o Ioapa i te tangi o te tetere, ka mea ake, He aha tenei hamama o te pa e ngangau mai nei?
42 I a ia ano e korero ana, na ko Honatana tama a Apiatara tohunga e haere mai ana; a ka mea a Aronia, Haere mai; he tangata maia hoki koe, a he korero pai au.
43 Na ka whakahoki a Honatana, ka mea atu ki a Aronia, He pono rawa, kua meinga a Horomona e to tatou ariki, e Kingi Rawiri, hei kingi.
44 A kua unga e te kingi hei hoa mona a Haroko tohunga, a Natana poropiti, a Penaia tama a Iehoiara, ratou ko nga Kereti, ko nga Pereti; a kua whakanohoia ia e ratou ki te muera o te kingi:
45 A kua whakawahia ia e Haroko tohunga, e Natana poropiti hei kingi ki Kihona: na kua piki ake ratou i reira me te koa, na ngateri ana te pa. Ko te hamama tenei i rongo na koutou.
46 A ko Horomona hoki tenei te noho mai nei i runga i te torona o te kingitanga.
47 A kua tae mai hoki nga pononga a te kingi ki te manaaki i to tatou ariki, i a Kingi Rawiri, ki te mea, Kia meinga e tou Atua te ingoa o Horomona kia pai atu i tou ingoa, kia whakanuia ake e ia tona torona i tou torona. Na piko ana te kingi i run ga i te moenga.
48 A i penei hoki te kupu a te kingi, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira, mona kua homai nei i tetahi hei noho i toku torona i tenei ra, me te kite atu ano oku kanohi.
49 Na ka pawera nga manuhiri a Aronia, whakatika ana, a haere ana i tona ara, i tona ara.
50 A wehi ana a Aronia i a Horomona, a whakatika ana, ka haere, a ka hopu i nga haona o te aata.
51 Na ka korerotia te korero ki a Horomona, Ko Aronia tera e wehi anai a Kingi Horomona; kei te pupuri ano tera i nga haona o te aata; e mea ana, Kia oati a Kingi Horomona ki ahau aianei, e kore a whakamatea e ia tana pononga ki te hoari.
52 Na ka mea a Horomona, Ki te mea he tikanga pai tana, e kore e taka tetahi makawe ona ki te whenua; tena ki te kitea he he tona, ka mate.
53 Heoi ka tono tangata a Kingi Horomona ki te tiki i a ia, i runga i te aata. A haere mai ana ia, piko ana ki a Kingi Horomona; a ka mea a horomona ki a ia, Haere ki tou whare.

1 Kings 1
New International Version
Adonijah Sets Himself Up as King
1 When King David was very old, he could not keep warm even when they put covers over him. 2 So his attendants said to him, “Let us look for a young virgin to serve the king and take care of him. She can lie beside him so that our lord the king may keep warm.”
3 Then they searched throughout Israel for a beautiful young woman and found Abishag,(A) a Shunammite,(B) and brought her to the king. 4 The woman was very beautiful; she took care of the king and waited on him, but the king had no sexual relations with her.
5 Now Adonijah,(C) whose mother was Haggith, put himself forward and said, “I will be king.” So he got chariots(D) and horses[a] ready, with fifty men to run ahead of him. 6 (His father had never rebuked(E) him by asking, “Why do you behave as you do?” He was also very handsome and was born next after Absalom.)
7 Adonijah conferred with Joab(F) son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar(G) the priest, and they gave him their support. 8 But Zadok(H) the priest, Benaiah(I) son of Jehoiada, Nathan(J) the prophet, Shimei(K) and Rei and David’s special guard(L) did not join Adonijah.
9 Adonijah then sacrificed sheep, cattle and fattened calves at the Stone of Zoheleth near En Rogel.(M) He invited all his brothers, the king’s sons,(N) and all the royal officials of Judah, 10 but he did not invite(O) Nathan the prophet or Benaiah or the special guard or his brother Solomon.(P)
11 Then Nathan asked Bathsheba,(Q) Solomon’s mother, “Have you not heard that Adonijah,(R) the son of Haggith, has become king, and our lord David knows nothing about it? 12 Now then, let me advise(S) you how you can save your own life and the life of your son Solomon. 13 Go in to King David and say to him, ‘My lord the king, did you not swear(T) to me your servant: “Surely Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah become king?’ 14 While you are still there talking to the king, I will come in and add my word to what you have said.”
15 So Bathsheba went to see the aged king in his room, where Abishag(U) the Shunammite was attending him. 16 Bathsheba bowed down, prostrating herself before the king.
“What is it you want?” the king asked.
17 She said to him, “My lord, you yourself swore(V) to me your servant by the Lord your God: ‘Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne.’ 18 But now Adonijah has become king, and you, my lord the king, do not know about it. 19 He has sacrificed(W) great numbers of cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and has invited all the king’s sons, Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander of the army, but he has not invited Solomon your servant. 20 My lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, to learn from you who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him. 21 Otherwise, as soon as my lord the king is laid to rest(X) with his ancestors, I and my son Solomon will be treated as criminals.”
22 While she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet arrived. 23 And the king was told, “Nathan the prophet is here.” So he went before the king and bowed with his face to the ground.
24 Nathan said, “Have you, my lord the king, declared that Adonijah shall be king after you, and that he will sit on your throne? 25 Today he has gone down and sacrificed great numbers of cattle, fattened calves, and sheep. He has invited all the king’s sons, the commanders of the army and Abiathar the priest. Right now they are eating and drinking with him and saying, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’ 26 But me your servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon he did not invite.(Y) 27 Is this something my lord the king has done without letting his servants know who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?”
David Makes Solomon King(Z)
28 Then King David said, “Call in Bathsheba.” So she came into the king’s presence and stood before him.
29 The king then took an oath: “As surely as the Lord lives, who has delivered me out of every trouble,(AA) 30 I will surely carry out this very day what I swore(AB) to you by the Lord, the God of Israel: Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne in my place.”
31 Then Bathsheba bowed down with her face to the ground, prostrating herself before the king, and said, “May my lord King David live forever!”
32 King David said, “Call in Zadok(AC) the priest, Nathan the prophet and Benaiah son of Jehoiada.” When they came before the king, 33 he said to them: “Take your lord’s servants with you and have Solomon my son mount my own mule(AD) and take him down to Gihon.(AE) 34 There have Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint(AF) him king over Israel. Blow the trumpet(AG) and shout, ‘Long live King Solomon!’ 35 Then you are to go up with him, and he is to come and sit on my throne and reign in my place. I have appointed him ruler over Israel and Judah.”
36 Benaiah son of Jehoiada answered the king, “Amen! May the Lord, the God of my lord the king, so declare it. 37 As the Lord was with my lord the king, so may he be with(AH) Solomon to make his throne even greater(AI) than the throne of my lord King David!”
38 So Zadok(AJ) the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, the Kerethites(AK) and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon mount King David’s mule, and they escorted him to Gihon.(AL) 39 Zadok the priest took the horn of oil(AM) from the sacred tent(AN) and anointed Solomon. Then they sounded the trumpet(AO) and all the people shouted,(AP) “Long live King Solomon!” 40 And all the people went up after him, playing pipes(AQ) and rejoicing greatly, so that the ground shook with the sound.
41 Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard it as they were finishing their feast. On hearing the sound of the trumpet, Joab asked, “What’s the meaning of all the noise in the city?”(AR)
42 Even as he was speaking, Jonathan(AS) son of Abiathar the priest arrived. Adonijah said, “Come in. A worthy man like you must be bringing good news.”(AT)
43 “Not at all!” Jonathan answered. “Our lord King David has made Solomon king. 44 The king has sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, the Kerethites and the Pelethites, and they have put him on the king’s mule, 45 and Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king at Gihon. From there they have gone up cheering, and the city resounds(AU) with it. That’s the noise you hear. 46 Moreover, Solomon has taken his seat(AV) on the royal throne. 47 Also, the royal officials have come to congratulate our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make Solomon’s name more famous than yours and his throne greater(AW) than yours!’ And the king bowed in worship on his bed 48 and said, ‘Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who has allowed my eyes to see a successor(AX) on my throne today.’”
49 At this, all Adonijah’s guests rose in alarm and dispersed. 50 But Adonijah, in fear of Solomon, went and took hold of the horns(AY) of the altar. 51 Then Solomon was told, “Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon and is clinging to the horns of the altar. He says, ‘Let King Solomon swear to me today that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.’”
52 Solomon replied, “If he shows himself to be worthy, not a hair(AZ) of his head will fall to the ground; but if evil is found in him, he will die.” 53 Then King Solomon sent men, and they brought him down from the altar. And Adonijah came and bowed down to King Solomon, and Solomon said, “Go to your home.”
