大卫给所罗门的遗训
2 大卫的死期临近了，就吩咐他儿子所罗门说： 2 “我要走世人必走的路了。你当刚强，作大丈夫， 3 遵守耶和华—你 神所吩咐的，照着摩西律法上所写的行耶和华的道，谨守他的律例、诫命、典章、法度，好让你无论做什么，不拘往何处去，尽都亨通。 4 耶和华必成就他所说关于我的话，说：‘你的子孙若谨慎自己的行为，尽心尽意凭信实行在我面前，就不断有人坐以色列的王位。’ 5 你也知道洗鲁雅的儿子约押向我所做的事，他对付以色列的两个元帅，尼珥的儿子押尼珥和益帖的儿子亚玛撒，杀了他们。他在太平之时，如同战争一般，流这二人的血，把这战争的血染了他腰间束的带和脚上穿的鞋。 6 所以你要照你的智慧去做，不让他白发安然下阴间。 7 你当恩待基列人巴西莱的众儿子，请他们常与你同席吃饭，因为我躲避你哥哥押沙龙的时候，他们亲近我。 8 看哪，在你这里有来自巴户琳的便雅悯人，基拉的儿子示每。我到玛哈念去的那日，他用狠毒的言语咒骂我。后来他却下约旦河迎接我，我就指着耶和华向他起誓说：‘我必不用刀杀死你。’ 9 但现在你不要以他为无罪。你是有智慧的人，必知道怎样待他，使他白发流血下阴间。”
大卫寿终
10 大卫与他祖先同睡，葬在大卫城。 11 大卫作以色列王四十年：在希伯仑作王七年，在耶路撒冷作王三十三年。 12 所罗门坐他父亲大卫的王位，他的国度非常稳固。
亚多尼雅的死
13 哈及的儿子亚多尼雅到所罗门的母亲拔示巴那里，拔示巴问他说：“你是为平安来的吗？”他说：“为平安来的。” 14 他又说：“我有话对你说。”拔示巴说：“你说吧。” 15 亚多尼雅说：“你知道这国原是归我的，全以色列也都期望我作王。然而，这国反归了我兄弟，因这国归了他是出乎耶和华。 16 现在我有一件事求你，请你不要推辞。”拔示巴对他说：“你说吧。” 17 他说：“求你请所罗门王把书念女子亚比煞赐我为妻，因他必不拒绝你。” 18 拔示巴说：“好，我必为你对王提说。”
19 于是，拔示巴来到所罗门王那里，要为亚多尼雅说话。王起来迎接，向她下拜，然后坐在自己的位上，又为王的母亲设一座位，她就坐在王的右边。 20 拔示巴说：“我要向你提出一个小小的请求，请你不要回绝我。”王对她说：“母亲，请提出来，我必不回绝你。” 21 拔示巴说：“请你把书念女子亚比煞赐给你哥哥亚多尼雅为妻。” 22 所罗门王回答母亲说：“为何替亚多尼雅求书念女子亚比煞呢？可以为他求王国吧！他是我的兄长，不但为他，也为亚比亚他祭司和洗鲁雅的儿子约押求吧！”[a] 23 所罗门王指着耶和华起誓说：“亚多尼雅讲这话是自己送命，不然，愿 神重重惩罚我。 24 耶和华坚立我，使我坐在父亲大卫的王位上，照着他所应许的为我建立家室；现在我指着永生的耶和华起誓，亚多尼雅今日必被处死。” 25 于是所罗门王派耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅去击杀亚多尼雅，他就死了。
亚比亚他被废和约押的死
26 王对亚比亚他祭司说：“你回亚拿突归自己的田地去吧！你本是该死的，但因你在我父亲大卫面前抬过主耶和华的约柜，又与我父亲同受一切苦难，所以我今日不杀死你。” 27 所罗门就革除亚比亚他，不让他作耶和华的祭司。这就应验了耶和华在示罗论以利家所说的话。
28 虽然约押没有拥护押沙龙，却拥护了亚多尼雅；这消息传到约押那里，他就逃到耶和华的帐幕，抓住祭坛的翘角。 29 有人告诉所罗门王：“约押逃到耶和华的帐幕，看哪，他在祭坛的旁边。”[b]所罗门就派耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅，说：“去，杀了他。” 30 比拿雅来到耶和华的帐幕，对约押说：“王这样吩咐：‘你出来吧！’”他说：“不，我要死在这里。”比拿雅就去回覆王，说：“约押这样说，他这样回答我。” 31 王对他说：“你可以照着他的话去做，杀了他，把他葬了，好叫约押流无辜人血的罪不归在我和我的父家。 32 耶和华必使约押的血归到他自己头上，因为他击杀两个比他又公义又良善的人，就是尼珥的儿子以色列的元帅押尼珥和益帖的儿子犹大的元帅亚玛撒，用刀杀了他们，我父亲大卫却不知道。 33 这二人的血必归到约押和他后裔头上，直到永远；惟有大卫和他的后裔，以及他的家与王位，必从耶和华那里得平安，直到永远。” 34 于是耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅上去，击杀约押，杀死他，把他葬在旷野约押自己的家里。 35 王就立耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅作元帅，代替约押，又使撒督祭司代替亚比亚他。
示每的死
36 王派人召示每来，对他说：“你要在耶路撒冷为自己建造房屋，住在那里，不可从那里出来到任何地方去。 37 你当确实知道，你何日出来过汲沦溪，就必定死！你的血必归到自己头上。” 38 示每对王说：“这话很好！我主我王怎样说，仆人必照样做。”于是示每住在耶路撒冷许多日子。
39 过了三年，示每的两个奴仆逃到玛迦的儿子迦特王亚吉那里去。有人告诉示每说：“看哪，你的奴仆在迦特。” 40 示每起来，备上驴，往迦特到亚吉那里去找他的奴仆，从迦特带他的奴仆回来。 41 有人告诉所罗门：“示每出耶路撒冷到迦特去，又回来了。” 42 王就派人召示每来，对他说：“我岂不是叫你指着耶和华起誓，并且警告你说‘你当确实知道，你何日出来到任何地方去，就必定死’吗？你也对我说：‘这话很好，我必听从。’ 43 你为何不遵守你对耶和华的誓言和我吩咐你的命令呢？” 44 王又对示每说：“你向我父亲大卫所做的一切恶事，你自己心里都知道，耶和华必使你的罪恶归到你自己的头上。 45 但所罗门王必蒙福，大卫的王位必在耶和华面前坚立，直到永远。” 46 于是王吩咐耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅，他就出去，击杀示每，示每就死了。这样，国度在所罗门的手中巩固了。

大卫对所罗门的叮嘱
2 大卫临终时，叮嘱他儿子所罗门说： 2 “我要走世人都必走的那条路了。你要刚强，做大丈夫。 3 你要遵从你的上帝耶和华的话，遵行祂的道，照摩西的律法遵守上帝的律例、诫命、典章和法度。这样，你无论做什么、去哪里都必亨通， 4 耶和华必履行给我的应许，祂对我说，‘如果你的子孙谨慎自守，忠心地事奉我，你的王朝必世代相传。’
5 “你知道洗鲁雅的儿子约押怎样对我，他杀了以色列的两名元帅——尼珥的儿子押尼珥和益帖的儿子亚玛撒。他在太平的时候把他们当作战场的敌手杀害，腰带和鞋子上沾满了他们的血。 6 你要用智慧处置他，不可让他安享天年。
7 “你要恩待基列人巴西莱的众子，让他们成为你的座上宾，因为我逃避你哥哥押沙龙的时候，他们曾接待我。
8 “别放过巴户琳的便雅悯人基拉的儿子示每。我逃亡到玛哈念的时候，他曾用恶毒的话咒骂我。后来他到约旦河迎接我的时候，我曾凭耶和华起誓不杀他。 9 但你不要放过他。你是个聪明人，应该知道怎样处置他。你要让他白头落地，不得善终。”
10 大卫与祖先同眠后，葬在大卫城。 11 他做以色列王四十年，在希伯仑做王七年，在耶路撒冷做王三十三年。 12 所罗门继承大卫的王位，国势强盛。
所罗门巩固王位
13 一天，哈姬的儿子亚多尼雅来见所罗门的母亲拔示芭，拔示芭问他：“你是为平安而来吗？”亚多尼雅说：“是为平安而来。” 14 又说：“我有事禀告。”拔示芭说：“你说吧。” 15 亚多尼雅说：“你知道，王位本该是我的，整个以色列原指望我做王。不料，王位归了我兄弟，因为这是上帝的旨意。 16 现在我有一个请求，请你不要推辞。”拔示芭说：“你说吧。” 17 他说：“请你求所罗门王将那书念女子雅比莎赐我为妻，他不会拒绝你。” 18 拔示芭说：“好吧，我会为你向王请求。”
19 拔示芭就为亚多尼雅的事去见所罗门王，王离座迎接，向她下拜，然后坐回位上，命人在自己右边为她摆设座位。 20 拔示芭说：“我有一件小事求你，请你不要推辞。”王说：“母亲请说，我必不推辞。” 21 拔示芭说：“请将书念女子雅比莎赐给你哥哥亚多尼雅为妻。”
22 所罗门王回答说：“为何只为亚多尼雅求书念女子雅比莎呢？你也为他求整个国家吧！他是我哥哥，又有亚比亚他祭司和洗鲁雅的儿子约押支持。” 23 所罗门王就凭耶和华起誓说：“亚多尼雅若不为他这样的要求付出性命，愿上帝重重地惩罚我。 24 耶和华让我稳稳地坐在父亲大卫的宝座上，照祂的应许为我建立了王朝，我凭永活的耶和华起誓，亚多尼雅今天必被处死。” 25 于是，所罗门王命令耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅杀死亚多尼雅。
26 王对亚比亚他祭司说：“你回亚拿突的老家去吧。你本是该死的，但我念你在我父大卫面前抬过主耶和华的约柜，曾经与我父亲患难与共，才饶你一命。” 27 所罗门就罢免了亚比亚他的职位，不许他再做耶和华的祭司。这事应验了耶和华在示罗所说的有关以利家的预言。
28 约押虽然没有支持押沙龙，但却支持了亚多尼雅。他听见风声，就逃进圣幕，抓住祭坛的角。 29 有人把这消息告诉所罗门王，说约押已经逃进圣幕，躲在祭坛旁边。所罗门就派耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅去杀他。 30 比拿雅来到耶和华的圣幕，对约押说：“王吩咐你出来！”约押却回答说：“不，我要死在这里。”比拿雅回去禀告王。
31 王说：“你就照他的话成全他吧，你要埋葬他，把他滥杀无辜的罪从我和我父亲家清除。 32 耶和华要让他血债血还。因为他背着我父亲杀了两名比他良善正直的人，即尼珥的儿子以色列元帅押尼珥和益帖的儿子犹大元帅亚玛撒。 33 所以，杀这二人的血债必永远归到约押和他后代身上。愿耶和华的平安永远伴随大卫和他的后代、他的家、他的国。” 34 耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅就去把约押杀死，葬在旷野约押自己的墓地。 35 王委派耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅替代约押为元帅，命撒督祭司代替亚比亚他。
36 王又派人将示每召来，对他说：“你要在耶路撒冷建屋居住，不得出城去其他地方。 37 你哪天越过汲沦溪，哪天必死无疑，你的死是咎由自取。” 38 示每说：“好，仆人必照我主我王说的做。”示每就一直住在耶路撒冷。 39 过了三年，示每的两个仆人逃到迦特王玛迦的儿子亚吉那里。示每知道后， 40 就备上驴到迦特的亚吉那里找他的仆人，并把他们带了回来。
41 所罗门听说示每从耶路撒冷前往迦特，已经返回， 42 就派人召来示每，问道：“我不是叫你凭耶和华起誓不离开耶路撒冷吗？我警告过你，你哪天离开这里，哪天必死无疑。当时你也同意。 43 现在你为何不守你向耶和华起的誓，不遵行我的命令？” 44 王又说：“你以前如何恶待我父大卫，你自己心里明白，现在耶和华要追究你的罪行了。 45 但所罗门王必蒙祝福，大卫的王位在耶和华面前必永远稳固。”
46 于是，王命令耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅杀死示每。这样所罗门的江山得以稳固。
1 Kings 2
King James Version
2 Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,
2 I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man;
3 And keep the charge of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:
4 That the Lord may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.
5 Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
6 Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace.
7 But shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.
8 And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the Lord, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.
9 Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou art a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do unto him; but his hoar head bring thou down to the grave with blood.
10 So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
11 And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
12 Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.
13 And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
14 He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.
15 And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother's: for it was his from the Lord.
16 And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.
17 And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
18 And Bathsheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.
19 Bathsheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king's mother; and she sat on his right hand.
20 Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee, say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.
21 And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
22 And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.
23 Then king Solomon sware by the Lord, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.
24 Now therefore, as the Lord liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.
26 And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.
27 So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the Lord; that he might fulfil the word of the Lord, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
28 Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the Lord, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
29 And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the Lord; and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.
30 And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the Lord, and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.
31 And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.
32 And the Lord shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing thereof, to wit, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.
33 Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the Lord.
34 So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.
35 And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host: and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.
36 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.
37 For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
38 And Shimei said unto the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
39 And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants be in Gath.
40 And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.
41 And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.
42 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the Lord, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word that I have heard is good.
43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the Lord, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?
44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the Lord shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;
45 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord for ever.
46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
