UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יָּ֣קָם וַ⁠יֵּ֔לֶךְ

and=he/it_rose_up and=he/it_went

Here the author implies that Adonijah left En Rogel and went to the sacred tent of meeting. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “And he left En Rogel and went to the tent of meeting”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

וַ⁠יֵּ֔לֶךְ

and=he/it_went

In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “and came”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַֽ⁠יַּחֲזֵ֖ק בְּ⁠קַרְנ֥וֹת הַ⁠מִּזְבֵּֽחַ

and,took_hold in/on/at/with,horns the,altar

In Adonijah’s culture, people who grasped the horns of the altar were considered to be protected by God and would not be taken away and punished unless someone could prove that they had really done something wrong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “and grasped the horns of the altar for protection” or “and grasped the horns of the altar to keep himself safe”
