2 ¹Rĩrĩa ihinda rĩa Daudi gũkua rĩakuhĩrĩirie, nĩaathire Solomoni mũũriũwe atĩrĩ: ²“Niĩ ndĩ hakuhĩ kũgera njĩra ĩrĩa ĩgeragwo nĩ andũ othe a thĩ. Wĩyũmĩrĩrie, na wĩonanie atĩ ũrĩ mũndũ mũrũme. ³Rũmia maathani ma Ithe waku: thiĩaga na njĩra ciake, na ũrũmagie kĩrĩra gĩake, na maathani make, na matuĩro make, na ũira wake, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo wathoinĩ wa Musa, nĩgeetha ũgaacĩre maũndũinĩ mothe marĩa ũkũrutaga, kũrĩa guothe ũkeerekera, ⁴nĩgeetha Ithe witũ ekĩrĩrie kiugo kĩrĩa aaririe igũrũ rĩakwa, akiuga atĩrĩ: ‘Aariũ aku mangĩmenyerera njĩra yao, magĩthiiaga mbere yakwa marĩ ehokeku na ngoro yao yothe na muoyo wao wothe, ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũkaaga mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Isiraeli.’

⁵Wee o nawe nĩũũĩ ũrĩa Joabu mũrũ wa Zeruia aanjĩkire—ũrĩa eekire anene eerĩ a mbũtũ cia ita cia Isiraeli, nĩo Abineri mũrũ wa Neri na Amasa mũrũ wa Jetheri. Nĩaamooragire, agĩita thakame ya mbaara hĩndĩ ya thaayũ, na akĩhaka thakame ĩyo ya mbaara mũcibiinĩ ũrĩa warĩ njohero yake na iraatũinĩ cia magũrũ make. ⁶Ĩka kũringana na ũũgĩ waku; ndũkareke mũtwe wake wa mbuĩ ũikũrũke mbĩrĩrainĩ na thaayũ. ⁷Onania ũtugi kũrĩ aariũ a Barizilai ũrĩa Mũgileadi; nĩmakorwo marĩ gatagatĩ ka arĩa marĩĩagĩra methainĩ yaku, amu nĩmaanjĩyarĩirie rĩrĩa ndoorire nĩ ũndũ wa Abisalomu mũrũ wa thoguo.

⁸Hamwe nawe harĩ na Shimei mũrũ wa Gera, ũrĩa Mũbenjamini wa kuuma Bahurimu, ũrĩa waanumire mũno mũthenya ũrĩa ndathiire Mahanaimu. No nĩaikũrũkire gũũka kũndũnga Jorodani, na ngĩmwĩhĩta na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ithe witũ, ngĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: ‘Ndigũkũũraga na rũhiũ rwa njora.’ ⁹Kwoguo ndũkamũrekererie atarĩ mũherithie. Wee ũrĩ mũũgĩ; nĩũkamenya ũrĩa ũkũmwĩka—ikũrũkia mũtwe wake wa mbuĩ mbĩrĩrainĩ na thakame.”

¹⁰Naake Daudi agĩkoma hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo itũũrainĩ inene rĩa Daudi. ¹¹Daudi aathamakĩire Isiraeli mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna: Hebironi mĩaka mũgwanja, na Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩtatũ. ¹²Naake Solomoni agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa ithe Daudi, naguo ũthamaki wake ũkĩhaandwo wega.

Ihooya rĩa Adonija rĩa Gĩkuũ

¹³Naake Adonija mũrũ wa Hagithi agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Bathisheba nyina wa Solomoni. Naake akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũroka na thaayũ?” Naake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, na thaayũ.”

¹⁴Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na ũndũ wa gũkwĩra.” Naake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Uga.”

¹⁵Naake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũũĩ atĩ ũthamaki warĩ wakwa, na andũ othe a Isiraeli nĩmandorete atĩ nĩ niĩ ndĩrĩthamakaga. No nĩwagarũrũkire ũgĩtuĩka wa mũrũ wa baba, amu warĩ wake kuuma kũrĩ Ithe witũ. ¹⁶Rĩu ndĩ na ihooya rĩmwe rĩa gũkũhooya; ndũkanaarege.” Naake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Uga.”

¹⁷Naake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha ũrie Mũthamaki Solomoni—nĩgũkorwo ndangĩkũrega—aheane Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”

¹⁸“Nĩ wega,” Bathisheba akiuga atĩrĩ, “nĩngwaria na mũthamaki nĩ ũndũ waku.”

¹⁹Naake Bathisheba agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Solomoni akamwarĩrie nĩ ũndũ wa Adonija. Naake mũthamaki agĩũkĩra akamũtũnge, akĩmũinamĩrĩra, agĩcooka agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene. Nĩaigĩte gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene nĩ ũndũ wa nyina wa mũthamaki, nake agĩikara mwena wake wa ũrĩo. ²⁰Naake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na ihooya rĩmwe rĩnini; ndũkanaarege.” Naake mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hooya, maitũ; ndigũkũrega.”

²¹Naake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami nĩaheanwo kũrĩ Adonija mũrũ wa thoguo atuĩke mũtumia wake.”

²²Naake Mũthamaki Solomoni agĩcookeria nyina atĩrĩ, “Nĩkĩĩ ũrahooya Abishagi ũrĩa Mũshunami nĩ ũndũ wa Adonija? Mũhooyere o na ũthamaki, amu nĩ mũrũ wa baba ũrĩa mũnene kũngĩra—mũhooyere we, na Abiatharu ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri Ngai, na Joabu mũrũ wa Zeruia!” ²³Naake Mũthamaki Solomoni akĩĩhĩta na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ithe witũ, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Ithe witũ aronjĩka ũguo, o na anjĩkĩrĩre makĩria, Adonija angĩkorwo ndaaririe kiugo gĩkĩ agĩĩũkĩrĩra muoyo wake mwene! ²⁴Rĩu-rĩ, o ta ũrĩa Ithe witũ arĩ muoyo—ũrĩa waandũgamirie, akĩnjigĩrĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa ithe Daudi, na akĩnjaakĩra nyũmba o ta ũrĩa eeranĩire—Adonija nĩakũũragwo ũmũthĩ.”

²⁵Naake Mũthamaki Solomoni agĩtũma Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada, nake akĩgũtha Adonija, agĩkua. ²⁶Naake mũthamaki akĩĩra Abiatharu ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri Ngai atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ mĩgũndainĩ yaku kũu Anathothu. Wee waagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkua, no ndigũkũũraga rĩu, tondũ nĩwakuuire ithandũkũ rĩa Mwathani Ithe witũ mbere ya baba Daudi, na ũkĩgwatanĩra nake mathĩĩnainĩ make mothe.” ²⁷Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Solomoni akĩruta Abiatharu ũthĩnjĩriinĩ wa Ithe witũ, akĩhingia kiugo kĩa Ithe witũ kĩrĩa kĩaaririo kũu Shilo igũrũ rĩa nyũmba ya Eli.

²⁸Nacio cigweta igĩkinyĩra Joabu—ũrĩa wanyiitanĩire na Adonija, na ti Abisalomu—nake akĩũrĩra hemainĩ ya Ithe witũ, akĩnyiita hĩa cia kĩgongona. ²⁹Naake Mũthamaki Solomoni akĩĩrwo atĩ Joabu nĩoorĩire hemainĩ ya Ithe witũ, na atĩ arĩ hakuhĩ na kĩgongona. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũmũgũthe.”

³⁰Naake Benaia agĩkinya hemainĩ ya Ithe witũ, akĩĩra Joabu atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki ekuuga ũũke nja.” Naake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Aca, ngũkuĩra haha.” Naake Benaia agĩcookeria mũthamaki ũhoro atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo Joabu oigire, na ũũ nĩguo aanjookeirie.”

³¹Naake mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩka o ta ũrĩa oiga. Mũgũthe ũmũthike, nĩgeetha ũndute na ũrute nyũmba ya baba thakame ĩrĩa ĩtaarĩ na ihĩtia ĩrĩa Joabu aaitire. ³²Nake Ithe witũ nĩagacookia thakame yake mũtweinĩ wake mwene, tondũ nĩaagũthire andũ eerĩ arĩa maarĩ athingu na ega kũmũkĩra, akĩmooraga na rũhiũ rwa njora—nĩo Abineri mũrũ wa Neri, mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita ya Isiraeli, na Amasa mũrũ wa Jetheri, mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita ya Juda—baba Daudi atooĩ. ³³Thakame yao nĩĩgacookerera mũtwe wa Joabu na mĩtwe ya njiaro ciake nginya tene; no harĩ Daudi, na njiaro ciake, na nyũmba yake, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene, nĩgũgakorwo na thaayũ uumĩte kũrĩ Ithe witũ nginya tene.”

³⁴Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada akĩambata, akĩgũtha Joabu, akĩmũũraga, nake agĩthikwo mũciĩ gwake werũinĩ. ³⁵Naake mũthamaki akĩiga Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada arĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita ithenya rĩa Joabu, na Zadoki ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri Ngai ithenya rĩa Abiatharu.

³⁶Naake mũthamaki agĩĩta Shimei, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩyakĩre nyũmba Jerusalemu, na ũikarage kuo; ndũkanoime ũthiĩ handũ hangĩ o hothe. ³⁷Nĩgũkorwo mũthenya ũrĩa ũkoima ũringe kĩanda kĩa Kidironi, menya na ma atĩ ti-itherũ nĩũgaakua; thakame yaku ĩgaakorwo mũtweinĩ waku mwene.”

³⁸Naake Shimei akĩĩra mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Kiugo gĩaku nĩ kĩega. O ta ũrĩa mwathi wakwa mũthamaki oiga, no taguo ndungata yaku ĩgeeka.” Nake Shimei agĩikara Jerusalemu matukũ maingĩ.

³⁹Thuutha wa mĩaka ĩtatũ, ndungata igĩrĩ cia Shimei ikĩũrĩra Akishi mũrũ wa Maaka, mũthamaki wa Gathi. Naake Shimei akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Ndungata ciaku irĩ Gathi.”

⁴⁰Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Shimei agĩũkĩra, agĩtandĩka ndigiri yake, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Akishi kũu Gathi gũcaria ndungata ciake; agĩcooka agĩthiĩ, agĩcicookia kuuma Gathi. ⁴¹Rĩrĩa Solomoni eerirwo atĩ Shimei nĩoimĩte Jerusalemu agĩthiĩ Gathi na agĩcooka, ⁴²mũthamaki agĩtũmanĩra Shimei, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ndiakwĩhĩtithirie na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ithe witũ, ngĩgũkaania ngĩkwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mũthenya ũrĩa ũkoima ũthiĩ handũ o hothe, menya na ma atĩ nĩũgaakua’? Nawe ũkĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Kiugo gĩaku nĩ kĩega; nĩngwathĩka.’ ⁴³Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgĩtũmire wage kũrũmia mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa wehĩtire mbere ya Ithe witũ, na watho ũrĩa ndaakũheire?” ⁴⁴Naake mũthamaki agĩcooka akĩĩra Shimei atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũũĩ ngoroinĩ yaku mwene ũũru ũrĩa wothe wĩkire Daudi baba. Rĩu Ithe witũ nĩagacookia ũũru waku mũtweinĩ waku mwene. ⁴⁵No Mũthamaki Solomoni nĩakaraathimwo, naguo gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Daudi kĩhaandwo mbere ya Ithe witũ nginya tene.” ⁴⁶Naake mũthamaki agĩatha Benaia mũrũ wa Jehoiada, nake akiuma akĩgũtha Shimei, agĩkua. Naguo ũthamaki ũkĩrũmio mookoinĩ ma Solomoni.
