< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Then the LORD sent Nathan to David, and when he arrived, he said, “There were two men in a certain city, one rich and the other poor.
Yawe atindaki Natan epai ya Davidi. Tango akomaki epai ya Davidi, alobaki na ye: « Ezalaki na bato mibale kati na engumba moko: moko kati na bango azalaki mozwi; mpe mosusu, mobola.
2 The rich man had a great number of sheep and cattle,
Mozwi azalaki na bameme mpe bangombe ebele,
3 but the poor man had nothing except one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food and drank from his cup; it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.
kasi mobola azalaki na eloko te longola kaka mwa mwana meme moko ya mwasi oyo asombaki. Abokolaki yango mpe ekolaki epai na ye elongo na bana na ye. Mpate yango ezalaki kolia bilei na sani moko, komela mayi na kopo moko na nkolo na yango mpe kolala na maboko na ye. Ezalaki lokola mwana na ye ya mwasi.
4 Now a traveler came to the rich man, who refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for his guest.”
Mokolo moko, mopaya moko ayaki epai ya mozwi, kasi mozwi aboyaki kozwa meme moko kati na bameme na ye to ngombe moko kati na bangombe na ye mpo na kolamba yango mpo na mopaya oyo ayaki epai na ye; azwaki kaka mwa mwana meme ya mwasi ya mobola mpe alambaki yango mpo na mopaya oyo ayaki epai na ye. »
5 David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan: “As surely as the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die!
Davidi asilikelaki mozwi makasi mpe alobaki na Natan: — Na Kombo na Yawe, moto oyo asali boye asengeli na kufa!
6 Because he has done this thing and has shown no pity, he must pay for the lamb four times over.”
Asengeli kofuta mwa mwana meme yango mbala minei, pamba te azalaki na mawa te ya kosala likambo ya boye.
7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are that man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
Natan alobaki na Davidi: — Moto yango ezali nde yo! Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Napakolaki yo mafuta mpo ete okoma mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe nakangolaki yo na maboko ya Saulo;
8 I gave your master’s house to you and your master’s wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah, and if that was not enough, I would have given you even more.
nakabaki na maboko na yo ndako ya nkolo na yo, Saulo, mpe basi na ye; napesaki yo libota ya Isalaele mpe libota ya Yuda. Bongo soki nyonso wana ezalaki moke koleka, nalingaki kobakisela yo lisusu ebele koleka.
9 Why then have you despised the command of the LORD by doing evil in His sight? You put Uriah the Hittite to the sword and took his wife as your own, for you have slain him with the sword of the Ammonites.
Mpo na nini otioli Liloba na Yawe na kosala makambo oyo ezali mabe na miso na Ye? Obomisi Iri, moto ya Iti, na mopanga mpe ozwi mwasi na ye mpo ete akoma mwasi na yo. Obomisi ye na mopanga ya bato ya Amoni.
10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.’
Mpo na yango, mopanga ekolongwa lisusu te na ndako na yo, pamba te otioli ngai mpe ozwi mwasi ya Iri, moto ya Iti, mpo ete akoma mwasi na yo.
11 This is what the LORD says: ‘I will raise up adversity against you from your own house. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to another, and he will lie with them in broad daylight.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nakoyeisa pasi epai na yo wuta na ndako na yo moko; na miso na yo, nakokamata basi na yo mpe nakopesa bango na moko kati na baninga na yo, oyo akosangisa na bango nzoto na moyi makasi.
12 You have acted in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.’”
Osalaki yango na nkuku, kasi ngai nakosala likambo oyo na moyi mpe na miso ya Isalaele mobimba. › »
13 Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” “The LORD has taken away your sin,” Nathan replied. “You will not die.
Davidi alobaki na Natan: — Solo, nasalaki masumu epai na Yawe. Natan azongisaki: — Yawe alongoli masumu na yo; okokufa te.
14 Nevertheless, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the word of the LORD, the son born to you will surely die.”
Kasi lokola na likambo oyo yo osali, opesi na banguna ya Yawe nzela ya kofinga Ye, mwana oyo bakobotela yo akokufa.
15 After Nathan had gone home, the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and he became ill.
Sima na yango, Natan azongaki na ndako na ye. Yawe abetaki mwana oyo mwasi ya Iri abotelaki Davidi, mpe mwana yango akomaki kobela.
16 David pleaded with God for the boy. He fasted and went into his house and spent the night lying in sackcloth on the ground.
Davidi abondelaki Nzambe mpo na mwana, akilaki bilei, akotaki na ndako na ye mpe akomaki kolala na mabele babutu nyonso.
17 The elders of his household stood beside him to help him up from the ground, but he was unwilling and would not eat anything with them.
Bakambi ya ndako na ye bayaki kotelema pembeni na ye mpo na kotelemisa ye wuta na mabele, kasi aboyaki mpe andimaki te kolia bilei elongo na bango.
18 On the seventh day the child died. But David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Look, while the child was alive, we spoke to him, and he would not listen to us. So how can we tell him the child is dead? He may even harm himself.”
Na mokolo ya sambo, mwana akufaki. Basali ya Davidi babangaki koyebisa ye ete mwana akufi, pamba te bazalaki komilobela: « Wana mwana azalaki nanu na bomoi, tango tolobaki na Davidi, ayokaki biso te. Awa sik’oyo mwana akufi, tokoloba na ye ndenge nini? Soki toyebisi ye sik’oyo ete mwana akufi, akoki kosala likambo moko ya mabe! »
19 When David saw that his servants were whispering to one another, he perceived that the child was dead. So he asked his servants, “Is the child dead?” “He is dead,” they replied.
Davidi amonaki basali na ye koloba na se se kati na bango, mpe asosolaki ete mwana akufi. Atunaki: — Boni, mwana akufi? Bazongisaki: — Iyo, akufi.
20 Then David got up from the ground, washed and anointed himself, changed his clothes, and went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they set food before him, and he ate.
Bongo Davidi atelemaki wuta na mabele, amisukolaki nzoto, amipakolaki malasi, alataki bilamba mosusu, akotaki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe agumbamaki mpo na kosambela. Sima, azongaki na ndako na ye, asengaki bilei mpe aliaki.
21 “What is this you have done?” his servants asked. “While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but when he died, you got up and ate.”
Basali na ye batunaki: — Mpo na nini ozali kosala boye? Wana mwana azalaki na bomoi, ozalaki komilalisa nzala mpe ozalaki kolela; awa sik’oyo mwana akufi, otelemi mpe okomi kolia!
22 David answered, “While the child was alive, I fasted and wept, for I said, ‘Who knows? The LORD may be gracious to me and let him live.’
Azongisaki: — Solo, wana mwana azalaki nanu na bomoi, nazalaki kokila bilei mpe kolela, pamba te nazalaki komilobela: « Nani ayebi? Tango mosusu Yawe akosalela ngai ngolu mpe akotika mwana na bomoi! »
23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Kasi lokola sik’oyo akufi, mpo na nini nakila bilei? Boni, nakoki kozongisa ye lisusu na bomoi? Ngai nde nakokende epai na ye, kasi ye akozonga epai na ngai te.
24 Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. So she gave birth to a son, and they named him Solomon. Now the LORD loved the child
Bongo Davidi abondisaki mwasi na ye, Batisheba; akendeki epai na ye mpe asangisaki na ye nzoto. Batisheba abotelaki ye lisusu mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Salomo. » Yawe alingaki ye
25 and sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah because the LORD loved him.
mpe atindaki maloba na nzela ya mosakoli Natan ete bapesa ye kombo « Yedidia, » pamba te Yawe alingaki ye.
26 Meanwhile, Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal fortress.
Joabi abundisaki engumba Raba ya bato ya Amoni mpe abotolaki mboka mokonzi.
27 Then Joab sent messengers to David to say, “I have fought against Rabbah and have captured the water supply of the city.
Joabi atindaki bantoma koloba na Davidi: « Nabundisi Raba mpe nabotoli eteni ya mabele epai wapi mayi ezali.
28 Now, therefore, assemble the rest of the troops, lay siege to the city, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and it will be named after me.”
Sik’oyo, sangisa basoda oyo batikali, bozingela engumba Raba mpe bokamata yango; soki te nakokamata yango ngai moko, mpe kombo na ngai ekosakolama kuna. »
29 So David assembled all the troops and went to Rabbah; and he fought against it and captured it.
Davidi asangisaki mampinga nyonso mpe akendeki na Raba, abundisaki mpe akamataki yango.
30 Then he took the crown from the head of their king. It weighed a talent of gold and was set with precious stones, and it was placed on David’s head. And David took a great amount of plunder from the city.
Alongolaki motole oyo ezalaki na moto ya mokonzi na yango. Motole yango esalemaki na bakilo ya wolo koleka tuku misato mpe ezalaki na libanga ya talo na likolo na yango. Wuta na tango wana, ekomaki na moto ya Davidi. Akamataki bomengo ebele ya bitumba kati na engumba yango.
31 David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he made them work at the brick kilns. He did the same to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
Amemaki na bowumbu bato oyo bazalaki kuna, atiaki bango na misala oyo basalaka na si, na piki mpe na epasola; atiaki bango mpe na mosala ya kosala babiliki. Davidi asalaki ndenge wana na bavandi ya bingumba nyonso ya bato ya Amoni. Bongo azongaki na Yelusalemi elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso.
