2 Samuel 4
1 Now when Ish-bosheth son of Saul heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel was dismayed.
Tango Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, ayokaki ete Abineri akufi na Ebron, alembaki nzoto, mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bakomaki na somo makasi.
2 Saul’s son had two men who were leaders of raiding parties. One was named Baanah and the other Rechab; they were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite of the tribe of Benjamin—Beeroth is considered part of Benjamin,
Nzokande mwana mobali ya Saulo azalaki na bato mibale oyo bazalaki bakonzi ya mampinga: moko, kombo na ye ezalaki « Baana; » mpe mosusu, « Rekabi. » Bazalaki bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti, kati na bato ya ekolo ya Benjame. Beyeroti ezalaki eteni ya mabele ya Benjame,
3 because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have lived there as foreigners to this day.
pamba te bato ya Beyeroti bakimelaki na Gitayimi mpe bavandaki kuna lokola bapaya kino na mokolo ya lelo.
4 And Jonathan son of Saul had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the report about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but as she was hurrying to escape, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Saulo, azalaki na mwana mobali moko oyo azalaki na mbeba na makolo nyonso mibale. Wana azalaki nanu na mibu mitano ya mbotama, sango kowuta na Jizireyeli na tina na Saulo mpe Jonatan ekomaki. Boye mama mobokoli na ye akamataki ye mpo na kokima. Kasi lokola akimaki na lombangu, mwana akweyaki mpe akomaki na mbeba na makolo nyonso mibale. Kombo na ye ezalaki « Mefibosheti. »
5 Now Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, set out and arrived at the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, while the king was taking his midday nap.
Rekabi mpe Baana, bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti, bakendeki na ndako ya Ishi-Bosheti mpe bakomaki kuna na ngonga ya midi, wana azalaki kolala mpo na kopema.
6 They entered the interior of the house as if to get some wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and his brother Baanah slipped away.
Bakotaki kati na ndako lokola nde bakei kozwa ble, wana Ishi-Bosheti azalaki ya kolala na mbeto na ye kati na shambre, batubaki ye mbeli na libumu, babomaki ye mpe bakataki ye moto; bongo bazwaki moto yango, bakimaki mpe batambolaki na yango butu mobimba na nzela oyo ekenda na etando ya Araba. Rekabi mpe Baana, ndeko na ye ya mobali, bakimaki.
7 They had entered the house while Ish-bosheth was lying on his bed, and having stabbed and killed him, they beheaded him, took his head, and traveled all night by way of the Arabah.
8 They brought the head of Ish-bosheth to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life. Today the LORD has granted vengeance to my lord the king against Saul and his offspring.”
Bamemaki moto ya Ishi-Bosheti epai ya Davidi, na Ebron, mpe balobaki na mokonzi: — Tala moto ya Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, monguna na yo, oyo alukaki koboma yo. Na mokolo ya lelo, Yawe azongisi mpo na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mabe na mabe epai ya Saulo mpe bakitani na ye.
9 But David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all distress,
Davidi azongiselaki Rekabi mpe Baana, ndeko na ye ya mobali, bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti: — Na Kombo na Yawe oyo akangoli ngai na pasi nyonso
10 when someone told me, ‘Look, Saul is dead,’ and thought he was a bearer of good news, I seized him and put him to death at Ziklag. That was his reward for his news!
tango moto moko ayebisaki ngai ete Saulo akufi, wana akanisaki ete amemeli ngai sango malamu. Nakangaki ye mpe nabomaki ye, na Tsikilagi. Ezalaki lifuti oyo napesaki ye mpo na sango na ye.
11 How much more, when wicked men kill a righteous man in his own house and on his own bed, shall I not now require his blood from your hands and remove you from the earth!”
Bongo sik’oyo, tango bato mabe babomi moto oyo ayebi na ye likambo te kati na ndako na ye moko mpe na mbeto na ye moko, nasengeli te kosenga makila na ye na maboko na bino mpe kolimwisa bino na mokili?
12 So David commanded his young men, and they killed Rechab and Baanah. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron, but they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in Abner’s tomb in Hebron.
Boye Davidi apesaki mitindo; mpe bato na ye babomaki bango, bakataki bango maboko mpe makolo mpe badiembikaki bango pembeni ya liziba ya Ebron. Bazwaki moto ya Ishi-Bosheti mpe bakundaki yango kati na kunda ya Abineri, na Ebron.
