王位之争
1大卫王年纪老迈,虽然盖了几层被子,仍然觉得冷. 2他的臣仆建议:“不如选一位少女进宫伺候,照顾我主我王,让她睡在王怀中给王取暖.”
3于是,他们在以色列全国寻找美貌女子,找到了一位名叫雅比莎的书念少女,把她带到王那里. 4这女子长得花容月貌,她照顾,伺候王,但王没有与她同房.
5那时,哈姬的儿子亚多尼雅妄自尊大,说:“我必做王.”他为自己制备了车辆和骑兵,派五十人在前面开路. 6他父亲从不干涉,责问他:“你这是做什么?”他是押沙龙的弟弟,长得英俊非凡.
7亚多尼雅与洗鲁雅的儿子约押及祭司亚比亚他商议,二人都答应支持他. 8不过,撒督祭司,耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅,拿单先知,示每,利以和大卫的勇士却没有跟随他.
9一天,亚多尼雅在隐·罗结附近的琐希列磐石那里宰了牛羊和肥牛犊献祭,并邀请了众王子和犹大的群臣. 10可是他没有邀请拿单先知,比拿雅,大卫的勇士和他的兄弟所罗门.
11拿单对所罗门的母亲拔示芭说:“你没有听说吗?哈姬的儿子亚多尼雅做王了,我们的主大卫还不知道. 12事到如今,我有一个主意,可以保住你和你儿子所罗门的性命. 13你去见大卫王,对他说,‘我主我王啊,你不是起誓说让臣妾的儿子所罗门继承王位吗?怎么现在亚多尼雅做了王呢?’ 14你跟王说话的时候,我会进去证实你的话.”
15拔示芭就进内室去见年迈的王,书念的少女雅比莎正在伺候他. 16拔示芭向王屈身下拜.王问道:“你有什么事吗?” 17拔示芭回答说:“我主啊,你曾经凭你的上帝耶和华起誓说让臣妾的儿子所罗门继承你的王位,坐你的宝座. 18但现在亚多尼雅已经称王了,我主我王还不知道. 19他宰了许多牛羊和肥牛犊献祭,邀请众王子,亚比亚他祭司和约押元帅,却没有邀请你的仆人所罗门. 20我主我王啊!以色列举国拭目以待,等着王来指定谁继承王位. 21不然,到我主我王与祖先同眠之后,我和我儿所罗门必被定为罪人.”
22她与王正说话间,拿单先知进宫来了. 23有人奏告王,说:“拿单先知来了.”拿单来到王面前,俯伏在地, 24说:“我主我王啊,你已经宣布让亚多尼雅继承你的王位,坐你的宝座吗? 25他今天宰了许多牛羊和肥犊献祭,宴请众王子,将领和亚比亚他祭司,他们正在他那里一边吃喝一边说,‘亚多尼雅王万岁!’ 26但他没有邀请臣仆我,撒督祭司,耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅和你的仆人所罗门. 27这是我主我王的旨意吗?王还没有对臣仆们说过谁继承王位.”
28于是,大卫王召见拔示芭.拔示芭立刻晋见,侍立在王面前. 29王起誓说:“我凭救我脱离一切苦难的永活的耶和华起誓, 30我今天必实现我凭以色列的上帝耶和华向你起的誓.你的儿子所罗门必继承王位,坐在我的宝座上.”
31拔示芭就向王俯伏下拜说:“我主我王万岁!”
32大卫王又召见撒督祭司,拿单先知和耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅.他们都来到王面前. 33王嘱咐道:“你们要率领我的随从,让我儿所罗门骑上我的骡子,护送他下到基训. 34撒督祭司和拿单先知要在那里膏立他为以色列王.你们要吹响号角,高喊,‘所罗门王万岁!’ 35然后,你们要随他回来,他要登基,继承我的王位.我已立他做以色列和犹大的君王了.”
36耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅说:“遵命,愿我主我王的上帝耶和华成全这事. 37耶和华怎样与我主我王同在,愿祂也照样与所罗门同在,使他的国比我主大卫王的国更强大.” 38于是,撒督祭司,拿单先知,耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅,以及基利提人和比利提人请所罗门骑上大卫王的骡子,护送他前往基训. 39撒督祭司从圣幕里拿来盛膏油的角,膏立所罗门为王.他们吹响号角,民众高声欢呼:“所罗门王万岁!” 40众人浩浩荡荡地随着所罗门回京,一路上吹笛欢呼,声音震动大地. 41亚多尼雅和他的众宾客刚刚饮宴完毕,听见了这声音.约押听见号角声,便问:“城里为什么如此喧闹?” 42就在这时候,亚比亚他祭司的儿子约拿单来了,亚多尼雅说:“进来!你是个忠勇的人,一定带来了好消息.”
43约拿单说:“我们的主大卫王已经立所罗门为王了. 44王派撒督祭司,拿单先知,耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅,以及基利提人和比利提人护送所罗门骑上王的骡子. 45撒督祭司和拿单先知在基训膏立他为王,他们一路上欢呼着回来了,全城轰动.你们听到的就是他们的声音. 46所罗门已经登基掌权, 47王的臣仆也来向我们的主大卫王道喜说,‘愿王的上帝使所罗门比王更声名显赫,使他的国比王的国更强大.’王在床上俯伏敬拜, 48说,‘以色列的上帝耶和华当受称颂,因为祂让我亲眼看见我的继承人今天登基.’”
49亚多尼雅的众宾客听后,吓得四散而去. 50亚多尼雅惧怕所罗门,就去抓住祭坛的角. 51有人告诉所罗门:“亚多尼雅惧怕王,现在正抓住祭坛的角,要王今天起誓不要杀他.”
52所罗门说:“如果他是个忠义的人,必毫发无损;如果他作恶,必死无疑.” 53于是,所罗门王便派人去把亚多尼雅从祭坛上带下来.亚多尼雅前来向所罗门王俯伏下拜,所罗门对他说:“你回家去吧.”
