DAVID AGES
Sovereign David ages - stricken in days; they cover him with clothes, and he has no heat: 2 so his servants say to him, We seek a virgin lass for my adoni the sovereign to stand at the face of the sovereign to become acquainted with him - to lie in his bosom so that my adoni the sovereign heats up. 3 So they seek a beautiful lass throughout all the borders of Yisra El; and find Abi Shag a Shunemiyth and bring her to the sovereign: 4 and the lass is mighty beautiful and becomes acquainted with the sovereign and ministers to him; and the sovereign knows her not. 5
ADONI YAH USURPS LEADERSHIP
And Adoni Yah the son of Haggith lifts himself, saying, I reign. He works chariots and cavalry and fifty men to run at his face: 6 and his father contorts him not all his days saying, Why have you worked so? And he also is mighty good of form; and he was birthed after Abi Shalom: 7 and his words are with Yah Ab the son of Seruyah and with Abi Athar the priest: and they help after Adoni Yah. 8 And Sadoq the priest and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada and Nathan the prophet and Shimi and Rei and the mighty of David are not with Adoni Yah. 9 And Adoni Yah sacrifices flock and oxen and fatlings by the stone of Zocheleth by En Rogel; and calls all his brothers, sons of the sovereign; and all the men of Yah Hudah, servants of the sovereign: 10 and he calls not Nathan the prophet and Bena Yah and the mighty and Shelomoh his brother. 11
NATHAN AND BATH SHEBA
Nathan says to Bath Sheba the mother of Shelomoh saying, Hear you not that Adoni Yah the son of Haggith reigns and David our adoni knows it not? 12 and now come, I pray you, and I counsel you to rescue your own soul and the soul of your son Shelomoh: 13 go and enter to sovereign David, and say unto him, Oathed you not, my adoni, O sovereign, to your maid, saying, Assuredly Shelomoh your son reigns after me, and settles on my throne? Why reigns Adoni Yah? 14 Behold, while you still word with the sovereign, I also come in after you, and fulfill/shalam your words. 15 And Bath Sheba enters to the sovereign into the chamber: and the sovereign ages mightily; and Abi Shag the Shunemiyth ministers to the sovereign: 16 and Bath Sheba bows and prostrates to the sovereign. And the sovereign says, What - to you? 17 And she says to him, My adoni, you oathed to your maid by Yah Veh your Elohim, Assuredly Shelomoh your son reigns after me and settles on my throne. 18 And now, behold, Adoni Yah reigns; and now, my adoni the sovereign, knows it not: 19 and he sacrifices oxen and fatlings and flocks in abundance; and calls all the sons of the sovereign and Abi Athar the priest and Yah Ab the governor of the host; and Shelomoh your servant he calls not: 20 and you, my adoni, O sovereign, the eyes of all Yisra El are on you, to tell them who settles on the throne of my adoni the sovereign after him: 21 and so be it, that when my adoni the sovereign lies with his fathers I and my son Shelomoh be as sinners. 22 And behold, as she still words with the sovereign, Nathan the prophet also comes in: 23 and they tell the sovereign, saying, Behold Nathan the prophet. - and he comes in at the face of the sovereign, and prostrates himself at the face of the sovereign with his nostrils to the earth. 24 And Nathan says, My adoni, O sovereign, Did you say, Adoni Yah reigns after me and he settles on my throne? 25 For he descends this day and sacrifices oxen and fatlings and flocks in abundance and calls all the sons of the sovereign and the governors of the host and Abi Athar the priest: and behold, they eat and drink at his face and say, Sovereign Adoni Yah lives. 26 But me - me your servant and Sadoq the priest and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada and your servant Shelomoh, he calls not. 27 If this is the word of my adoni the sovereign then you have not revealed to your servant who settles on the throne of my adoni the sovereign after him? 28 Then sovereign David answers and says, Call Bath Sheba. - and she comes at the face of the sovereign and stands at the face of the sovereign. 29 And the sovereign oaths and says, Yah Veh lives - who redeemed my soul from all tribulation: 30 even as I oathed to you by Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, saying, Assuredly Shelomoh your son reigns after me and he settles on my throne in my stead; even so in working, I work this day. 31 Then Bath Sheba bows with nostrils to the earth and prostrates to the sovereign and says, O that my adoni sovereign David live eternally. 32 And sovereign David says, Call Sadoq the priest and Nathan the prophet and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada. - and they come at the face of the sovereign. 33 And the sovereign says to them, Take with you the servants of your adoni and have Shelomoh my son ride on my own mule; and descend him to Gichon: 34 and there Sadoq the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him sovereign over Yisra El: and you blast with the shophar and say, Sovereign Shelomoh lives: 35 and you ascend after him, and he comes and settles on my throne; for he reigns in my stead: and I misvah him to have eminence over Yisra El and over Yah Hudah. 36 And Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada answers the sovereign and says, Amen: Yah Veh Elohim of my adoni the sovereign says thus: 37 As Yah Veh became with my adoni the sovereign even so becomes he with Shelomoh: and greatens his throne above the throne of my adoni sovereign David. 38 So Sadoq the priest and Nathan the prophet and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada and the executioners and the couriers descend and ride Shelomoh on the mule of sovereign David and walk him to Gichon. 39 And Sadoq the priest takes a horn of oil from the tent and anoints Shelomoh: and they blast the shophar; and all the people say, Sovereign Shelomoh lives. 40 And all the people ascend after him and the people flute with flutes and greatly cheer with cheer so that the earth splits with their voice: 41 and Adoni Yah and all the called with him hear it as they finish eating. And Yah Ab hears the voice of the shophar, and he says, What is this voice of the city roaring? 42 And as he yet words, behold, Yah Nathan the son of Abi Athar the priest comes; and Adoni Yah says to him, Come in; for you are a valiant man and bring good evangelism. 43 And Yah Nathan answers and says to Adoni Yah, Surely, our adoni sovereign David has Shelomoh to reign: 44 and the sovereign sends with him Sadoq the priest and Nathan the prophet and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada and the executioners and the couriers and they ride him on the mule of the sovereign: 45 and Sadoq the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him sovereign in Gichon: and they ascend from there cheering - so that the city quakes - this is the voice you heard: 46 and also, Shelomoh settles on the throne of the sovereigndom: 47 and also, the servants of the sovereign come to bless our adoni sovereign David, saying, Elohim well-prepares the name of Shelomoh better than your name and makes his throne greater than your throne. And the sovereign prostrates himself on the bed: 48 and thus also says the sovereign, Blessed - Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, who gives one to settle on my throne this day - my eyes seeing. 49 And all the called with Adoni Yah tremble and rise and every man goes his way: 50 and Adoni Yah awes at the face of Shelomoh and rises and goes and holds on to the horns of the sacrifice altar. 51 And they tell Shelomoh, saying, Behold, Adoni Yah awes sovereign Shelomoh: for, behold, he holds on to the horns of the sacrifice altar, saying, O that sovereign Shelomoh oath to me today that he not deathify his servant with the sword. 52 And Shelomoh says, If he shows himself a son of valour, not a hair of his falls to the earth: but if evil is found in him, he dies. 53 So sovereign Shelomoh sends and they descend him from the sacrifice altar: and he comes and prostrates to sovereign Shelomoh: and Shelomoh says to him, Go to your house.
