1 Samuel 28
1 Now in those days the Philistines got their forces together to make war on Israel. And Achish said to David, Certainly you and your men are to go out with me to the fight.
Na tango wana, bato ya Filisitia basangisaki mampinga na bango ya basoda mpo na kobundisa Isalaele. Akishi alobaki na Davidi: — Osengeli koyeba ete yo mpe bato na yo bokokende na bitumba elongo na ngai.
2 And David said to Achish, You will see now what your servant will do. And Achish said to David, Then I will make you keeper of my head for ever.
Davidi azongiselaki Akishi: — Okomona yo moko makambo oyo mosali na yo azali na makoki ya kosala. Akishi alobaki na Davidi: — Malamu mingi! Nakokomisa yo mpo na libela soda oyo abatelaka ngai.
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel, after weeping for him, had put his body in its last resting-place in Ramah, his town. And Saul had put away from the land all those who had control of spirits and who made use of secret arts.
Nzokande Samuele akufaki, mpe Isalaele mobimba esalelaki ye matanga. Bakundaki ye na Rama, engumba na ye. Saulo abenganaki na mokili na ye bato oyo basololaka na bakufi mpe bato na soloka.
4 And the Philistines came together and put their forces in position in Shunem; and Saul got all Israel together and they took up their positions in Gilboa.
Wana bato ya Filisitia basanganaki mpe bayaki kotonga molako, na Sunemi, Saulo mpe asangisaki bato nyonso ya Isalaele mpe batongaki molako na Giliboa.
5 And when Saul saw the Philistine army he was troubled, and his heart was moved with fear.
Tango Saulo amonaki mampinga ya bato ya Filisitia, abangaki mpe somo etondaki na motema na ye.
6 And when Saul went for directions to the Lord, the Lord gave him no answer, by a dream or by the Urim or by the prophets.
Saulo atunaki Yawe, kasi Yawe ayanolaki te, ezala na nzela ya ndoto, ya Urimi to ya basakoli.
7 Then Saul said to his servants, Get me a woman who has control of a spirit so that I may go to her and get directions. And his servants said to him, There is such a woman at En-dor.
Bongo, Saulo alobaki na basali na ye: — Bolukela ngai mwasi oyo asololaka na bakufi mpo ete nakende kotuna ye. Basali na ye bazongisaki: — Tala, ezali na mwasi moko na Eyini-Dori.
8 So Saul, putting on other clothing, so that he might not be seen to be the king, took two men with him and went to the woman by night; and he said, Now, with the help of the spirit which you have, make the person whose name I will give you come up.
Boye Saulo amibongolaki, alataki bilamba mosusu mpe akendeki epai ya mwasi yango, na butu, elongo na mibali mibale. Alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, solola na bakufi mpo na ngai, mpe bimisela ngai moto oyo nakotanga kombo na ye.
9 And the woman said to him, But you have knowledge of what Saul has done, how he has put away out of the land those who have control of spirits and the users of secret arts: why would you, by a trick, put me in danger of death?
Kasi mwasi yango alobaki na ye: — Oyebi solo makambo oyo Saulo asalaki. Abenganaki na mokili, bato oyo basololaka na bakufi mpe bato na soloka. Bongo mpo na nini otieli bomoi na ngai motambo mpo na kobomisa ngai?
10 And Saul made an oath to her by the Lord, saying, By the living Lord, no punishment will come to you for this.
Saulo alapaki ndayi epai na ye na Kombo na Yawe, alobaki: « Na Kombo na Yawe, okozwa solo etumbu te mpo na yango. »
11 Then the woman said, Who am I to let you see? And he said, Make Samuel come up for me.
Bongo mwasi yango atunaki: — Nabimisela yo nani? Saulo azongisaki: — Bimisela ngai Samuele.
12 And the woman saw that it was Saul, and she gave a loud cry, and said to Saul, Why have you made use of deceit? for you are Saul.
Tango mwasi yango amonaki Samuele, agangaki makasi mpe alobaki na Saulo: — Mpo na nini okosi ngai? Ozali Saulo!
13 And the king said to her, Have no fear: what do you see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
Mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Kobanga te, omoni nini? Mwasi alobaki na Saulo: — Namoni nzambe moko kobima na mabele.
14 And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, It is an old man coming up covered with a robe. And Saul saw that it was Samuel, and with his face bent down to the earth he gave him honour.
Saulo atunaki ye: — Azali ndenge nini? Mwasi azongisaki: — Ezali mobange mobali moko nde azali komata mpe alati kazaka. Bongo tango Saulo asosolaki ete ezali Samuele, akitaki mpe agumbamaki elongi kino na mabele.
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why have you made me come up, troubling my rest? And Saul in answer said, I am in great danger; for the Philistines are making war on me, and God has gone away from me and will no longer give me any answer, by the prophets or by dreams: so I have sent for you to make clear to me what I am to do.
Samuele alobaki na Saulo: — Mpo na nini otungisi ngai mpe obimisi ngai? Saulo alobaki: — Nazali na pasi makasi: bato ya Filisitia bazali kobundisa ngai; bongo Nzambe apesi ngai mokongo, azali koyanola ngai te, ezala na nzela ya basakoli to ya bandoto. Yango wana nabengi yo mpo ete oyebisa ngai likambo nini nakoki kosala.
16 And Samuel said, Why do you put your questions to me, seeing that God has gone away from you and is on the side of him who is against you?
Samuele alobaki: — Mpo na nini ozali kotuna ngai, awa Yawe asili kopesa yo mokongo mpe akomi monguna na yo?
17 And the Lord himself has done what I said: the Lord has taken the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbour David;
Yawe akokisi kaka makambo oyo asakolaki na nzela na ngai: Yawe abotoli bokonzi na maboko na yo mpe apesi yango na moninga na yo, Davidi,
18 Because you did not do what the Lord said, and did not give effect to his burning wrath against Amalek. So the Lord has done this thing to you today.
pamba te otosaki Yawe te mpe okweyiselaki te bato ya Amaleki kanda ya Yawe na koboma bango nyonso. Yango wana Yawe asali yo bongo lelo.
19 And more than this, the Lord will give Israel up with you into the hands of the Philistines: and tomorrow you and your sons will be with me: and the Lord will give up the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.
Yawe akokaba yo mpe Isalaele na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia.
20 Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night.
Mbala moko, Saulo abombamaki na mabele mpe ayokaki maloba ya Samuele somo mingi. Nzoto na ye elembaki mpo ete aliaki eloko moko te mokolo mobimba mpe butu mobimba.
21 And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was in great trouble, and said to him, See now, your servant has given ear to your words, and I have put my life in danger by doing what you said.
Tango mwasi apusanaki pembeni ya Saulo mpe amonaki ete azali lisusu na kimia te, alobaki na ye: — Tala, mwasi mosali na yo atosaki yo. Nandimaki kokufa mpo na kaka kosala makambo oyo otindaki ngai.
22 So now, give ear to the voice of your servant, and let me give you a little bread; and take some food to give you strength when you go on your way.
Sik’oyo, yo mpe, nabondeli yo: yoka mwasi mosali na yo, mpe tika ete ngai napesa yo bilei mpo ete olia mpe ozwa makasi ya kokoba nzela na yo.
23 But he would not, saying, I have no desire for food. But his servants, together with the woman, made him take food, and he gave way to them. So he got up from the earth, and took his seat on the bed.
Kasi Saulo aboyaki mpe alobaki: — Nakolia te. Kasi lokola basali na ye elongo na mwasi batiaki molende, Saulo ayokelaki bango. Saulo alamukaki mpe avandaki na mbeto.
24 And the woman had in the house a young cow, made fat for food; and she put it to death straight away; and she took meal and got it mixed and made unleavened bread;
Mwasi azalaki na mwana ngombe ya mafuta epai na ye, na etonga. Abonzaki yango noki-noki lokola mbeka. Akamataki farine, asangisaki yango mpe atumbelaki bango mapa ezanga levire.
25 And she put it before Saul and his servants, and they had a meal. Then they got up and went away the same night.
Atiaki yango liboso ya Saulo mpe liboso ya basali na ye, mpe baliaki. Bongo na butu wana kaka, batelemaki mpe bakendeki.
