16 Pavuli paki, Betiseba wangukotama ndi kujikama mpaka chisku chaki pasi pa masu pa fumu, ndipu fumu yingufumba kuti: “Upenja kupemphanji?”
17 Iyu wangumuka kuti: “Ambuya, yimwi mungundilapizgiya ini ndamteŵeti winu pa masu paku Yehova Chiuta winu kuti, ‘Solomoni mwana waku ndiyu wazamuja fumu pavuli paku ini, ndipu iyu ndiyu wazamuja pampandu wangu waufumu.’+
18 Kweni wonani! Adoniya waja fumu ndipu yimwi ambuya fumu yangu muziŵa kanthu kekosi cha pa nkhani iyi.+
19 Iyu wapereka sembi ng’ombi zinandi zinthulumi, nyama zinandi zakututuŵa ndipuso mbereri zinandi. Wadana ŵana ŵinu anthulumi wosi, wasembi Abiyatara ndi Yowabu mura wa asilikali.+ Kweni Solomoni mteŵeti winu wamudana cha.+

21 Nditopa kuti asani yimwi ambuya fumu yangu azikugonekani ŵaka kuti mupumuwi limoza ndi apapi ŵinu akali, ini ndi mwana wangu Solomoni, azakutiwona kuti te akuyukiya.”
22 Betiseba wechekulongoro ndi fumu, mchimi Natani wangusere.+
23 Nyengu yeniyo, ŵanthu angukambiya fumu kuti: “Kwaza mchimi Natani!” Iyu wanguza pa masu pa fumu ndipu wangujikamiya fumu mpaka chisku chaki pasi.
24 Sonu Natani wangukamba kuti: “Ambuya fumu yangu, kumbi mungukamba kuti, ‘Adoniya ndiyu wazamuja fumu pavuli paku ini, ndipu iyu ndiyu wazamuja pampandu wangu waufumu’?+

28 Sonu fumu Davidi yingumumuka kuti: “Ndidaniyeni Betiseba.” Betiseba wangusere ndi kuma pa masu pa fumu.
29 Fumu yingulapizga kuti: “Ndilapizga mu zina laku Yehova Chiuta wamoyu, yo wangunditaska* mu masuzgu ngangu ngosi,+
30 kuti msanawale ndichitengi nge mo ndingukulapizgiya mu zina laku Yehova Chiuta waku Isirayeli kuti, ‘Solomoni mwana waku ndiyu wazamuja fumu pavuli paku ini, ndipu iyu ndiyu wazamuja pampandu wangu waufumu!’”
31 Sonu Betiseba wangujikama ndi kusindama mpaka chisku pasi pa masu pa fumu ndipu wangukamba kuti: “Yimwi ambuya Fumu Davidi muje ndi umoyu mpaka muyaya!”
32 Nyengu yeniyo Fumu Davidi yingukamba kuti: “Ndidaniyeni wasembi Zadoki, mchimi Natani kweniso Benaya+ mwana waku Yehoyiyada.”+ Mwaviyo, yiwu angusere ndi kuma pa masu pa fumu.

34 Asani mwafika, wasembi Zadoki ndipuso mchimi Natani akumusankha*+ kuti waje fumu ya ku Isirayeli. Pavuli paki mukambi mbata* ndi kudaniriza kuti, ‘Fumu Solomoni yije ndi umoyu utali!’+
35 Pakuwe, yimwi mukayendengi muvuli mwaki ndipu iyu wazamusere ndi kuzija pampandu wangu waufumu. Iyu wazamuja fumu mumalu mwaku ini ndipu ndazakumuŵika kuti waje mulongozgi wa Ayisirayeli kweniso Ayuda.”
36 Nyengu yeniyo, Benaya mwana waku Yehoyiyada wangukambiya fumu kuti: “Ame! Yehova Chiuta winu wasimikiziyi venivi ambuya fumu yangu.
37 Nge mo Yehova wanguŵiya ndi yimwi ambuya fumu yangu, ndimu so waŵiyi ndi Solomoni,+ ndipu wachitiski kuti mpandu waufumu waku Solomoni uŵi ukulu kuluska mpandu winu waufumu yimwi ambuya Fumu Davidi.”+
38 Sonu wasembi Zadoki, mchimi Natani, Benaya+ mwana waku Yehoyiyada, Akereti ndipuso Apeleti,+ anguluta ndipu Solomoni angumukweza pa nyulu ya Fumu Davidi.+ Yiwu anguluta nayu ku Gihoni.+

40 Venivi vati vachitika, ŵanthu wosi angwamba kumulondo ndipu ambanga afyoliru, kweniso angukondwa ukongwa, mwakuti charu chingukeruka chifukwa cha chiwawa chawu.+
41 Adoniya kweniso ŵanthu wosi wo wanguŵadana anguvwa chiwawa chenichi ŵati amaliza kurya.+ Yowabu wati wavwa ŵaka kuliya kwa mbata wangufumba kuti: “Kumbi ntchiwawa wuli cho chivwika mutawuni?”
42 Iyu weche kulongoro, kunguza Yonatani+ mwana waku Abiyatara yo wenga wasembi. Sonu Adoniya wangukamba kuti: “Sere, pakuti yiwi ndiwi munthu wamampha* ndipu utenere kuti waza ndi uthenga wamampha.”
43 Kweni Yonatani wangumuka Adoniya kuti: “Awa! Mbuthenga wamampha cha! Ambuya Fumu Davidi asankha Solomoni kuja fumu.
44 Fumu yingutuma Solomoni limoza ndi wasembi Zadoki, mchimi Natani, Benaya mwana waku Yehoyiyada, Akereti ndipuso Apeleti, ndipu yiwu angumukweza pa nyulu ya fumu.+
