Deuteronomy 2
1 And we turned and departed into the wilderness, by the way of the Red Sea, as the Lord spoke to me, and we compassed mount Seir many days.
Na sima, tobalukaki mpe tokendeki na esobe, na nzela ya ebale monene ya Barozo ndenge Yawe atindaki ngai, pamba te tobalukaki mikolo ebele zingazinga ya etuka ya ngomba Seiri.
2 And the Lord said to me,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
3 You have compassed this mount long enough; turn therefore towards the north.
« Bowumeli mingi na kobaluka zingazinga ya etuka ya bangomba oyo; sik’oyo bokende na ngambo ya nor.
4 And charge the people, saying, You are going through the borders of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they shall fear you, and dread you greatly.
Pesa mitindo oyo epai ya bato: ‹ Bokomi pembeni ya koleka mokili ya bandeko na bino, bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bavandaka na Seiri. Bakobanga bino, kasi bozala mayele.
5 Do not engage in war against them, for I will not give you of their land even enough to set your foot upon, for I have given mount Seir to the children of Esau as an inheritance.
Bobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa bino ata eloko moko te kati na mokili na bango, ezala ata esika ya kotia lokolo na bino. Nasila kopesa, epai na Ezawu, etuka ya ngomba Seiri lokola libula na ye.
6 Buy food of them for money and eat, and you shall receive water of them by measure for money, and drink.
Bokofuta bango palata mpo na biloko oyo bokolia mpe mpo na mayi oyo bokomela.
7 For the Lord our God has blessed you in every work of your hands. Consider how you went through that great and terrible wilderness: behold, the Lord your God [has been] with you forty years; you did not lack any thing.
Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apamboli bino na misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Abateli bino na esobe oyo ya monene mibu tuku minei. Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali elongo na bino mpe bozangi eloko moko te. › »
8 And we passed by our brethren the children of Esau, who lived in Seir, by the way of Araba from Aelon and from Gesion Gaber; and we turned and passed by the way of the desert of Moab.
Na sima, totikaki bandeko na biso, bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bavandaka na Seiri. Tobalukaki wuta na nzela ya Araba oyo ewuta na Eyilati mpe na Etsioni-Geberi, mpe tokendeki na nzela ya esobe ya Moabi.
9 And the Lord said to me, Do not you quarrel with the Moabites, and do not engage in war with them; for I will not give you of their land for an inheritance, for I have given Aroer to the children of Lot to inherit.
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Bomona bato ya Moabi lokola banguna na bino te mpe bobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa bino ata eloko moko te kati na mokili na bango. Nasila kopesa mokili ya Ari lokola bozwi epai ya bakitani ya Loti. »
10 Formerly the Ommin lived in it, a great and numerous nation and powerful, like the Enakim.
Bato ya Emimi nde bazalaki kovanda kuna na kala. Bazalaki makasi mpe ebele, bingambe lokola bana ya Anaki.
11 These also shall be accounted Raphain like the Enakim; and the Moabites call them Ommin.
Bango mpe bazalaki komonana lokola bato ya Refayimi ndenge moko na bana ya Anaki. Kasi bato ya Moabi bazalaki kobenga bango bato ya Emimi.
12 And the Chorrhite lived in Seir before, and the sons of Esau destroyed them, and utterly consumed them from before them; and they lived in their place, as Israel did to the land of his inheritance, which the Lord gave to them.
Bato ya Ori mpe bazalaki kovanda na Seiri kasi bakitani ya Ezawu babenganaki bango. Babomaki bato ya Ori liboso na bango mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango ndenge kaka Isalaele asalaki mpo na mokili oyo Yawe apesaki bango lokola bozwi.
13 Now then, arise you, [said I], and depart, and cross the valley of Zaret.
Yawe alobaki: « Sik’oyo, botelema mpe bokatisa lubwaku ya Zeredi. » Boye totikaki lubwaku.
14 And the days in which we travelled from Cades Barne till we crossed the valley of Zaret, [were] thirty and eight years, until the whole generation of the men of war failed, dying out of the camp, as the Lord God sware to them.
Mibu tuku misato na mwambe elekaki wuta tango tolongwaki na Kadeshi-Barinea kino tokatisaki lubwaku ya Zeredi. Banda wana, molongo nyonso ya bato oyo babundaki bitumba bakufaki kati na molako ndenge Yawe alapaki ndayi mpo na bango.
15 And the hand of the Lord was upon them to destroy them out of the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
Loboko ya Yawe ebalukelaki bango kino asilisaki koboma bango nyonso kati na molako.
16 And it came to pass when all the men of war dying out of the midst of the people had fallen,
Tango bato ya suka kati na bato oyo bazalaki kobunda bitumba basilaki kokufa,
17 that the Lord spoke to me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
18 You shall pass over this day the borders of Moab to Aroer;
« Lelo oyo, okokatisa Moabi mpe Ari.
19 and you shall draw near to the children of Amman: do not quarrel with them, nor wage war with them; for I will not give you of the land of the children of Amman for an inheritance, because I have given it to the children of Lot for an inheritance.
Tango okokoma na mokili ya bato ya Amoni, komona bango lokola banguna te mpe kobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa yo ata eteni moko te ya mabele kati na mokili ya bakitani ya bato ya Amoni. Nasilaki kopesa yango lokola bozwi epai ya bakitani ya Loti. »
20 It shall be accounted a land of Raphain, for the Raphain lived there before, and the Ammanites call them Zochommin.
Mboka yango mpe emonanaki lokola mboka oyo bato ya Refayimi bazalaki kovanda. Kasi bato ya Amoni bazalaki kobenga bato ya Refayimi: bato ya Zamizumi.
21 A great nation and populous, and mightier than you, as also the Enakim: yet the Lord destroyed them from before them, and they inherited [their land], and they lived [there] instead of them until this day.
Bazalaki makasi mpe ebele, bingambe kaka lokola bana ya Anaki. Kasi Yawe abomaki bango liboso ya bato ya Amoni. Bato ya Amoni babenganaki bato ya Zamizumi mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango.
22 As they did to the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, even as they destroyed the Chorrhite from before them, and inherited their country, and lived [therein] instead of them until this day.
Yawe asalaki mpe ndenge wana mpo na bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bazalaki kovanda na Seiri tango abomaki bato ya Ori liboso na bango. Bakitani ya Ezawu babenganaki bato ya Ori mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango kino na mokolo ya lelo.
23 And the Evites who dwell in Asedoth to Gaza, and the Cappadocians who came out of Cappadocia, destroyed them, and lived in their room.
Ezalaki mpe ndenge moko mpo na bato na Avi oyo bazalaki kovanda na mboka yango kino na Gaza. Bato ya Kafitori, oyo bawuta na mokili ya Kafitori, babomaki bato ya Avi mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango.
24 Now then arise and depart, and pass over the valley of Arnon: behold, I have delivered into your hands Seon the king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land: begin to inherit [it]: engage in war with him this day.
Yawe alobaki: « Botelema, bokende mpe bokatisa lubwaku ya Arinoni. Nakabi na maboko na bino, Sikoni, moto ya Amori mpe mokonzi na Eshiboni, elongo na mokili na ye. Bobanda kobundisa yango mpe bokamata yango.
25 Begin to put your terror and your fear on the face of all the nations under heaven, who shall be troubled when they have heard your name, and shall be in anguish before you.
Lelo, nakosala ete mabota nyonso ya mokili ezala na somo mpe kobanga liboso na bino. Bakoyoka sango ya makambo oyo bokosala, bongo bakolenga mpe bakozanga kimia likolo na bino. »
26 And I sent ambassadors from the wilderness of Kedamoth to Seon king of Esebon with peaceful words, saying,
Wuta na esobe ya Kedemoti, natindaki bantoma epai ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, na maloba ya kimia.
27 I will pass through your land: I will go by the road, I will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
Nalobaki: « Tobondeli yo, tika biso tolekela na mokili na yo. Tokoleka kaka na nzela ya monene, tokobaluka te ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi to ya mobali.
28 You shall give me food for money, and I will eat; and you shall give me water for money, and I will drink; I will only go through on my feet:
Okotekela biso biloko ya kolia mpe mayi ya komela na motuya ya palata. Kasi tika biso kaka toleka na makolo
29 as the sons of Esau did to me, who lived in Seir, and the Moabites who lived in Aroer, until I shall have passed Jordan into the land which the Lord our God gives us.
ndenge bakitani ya Ezawu, oyo bavandaka na mokili ya Seiri, mpe bato ya Moabi, oyo bavandaka na Ari, basalelaki biso kino tokatisaki Yordani mpe tokotaki kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesi biso. »
30 And Seon king of Esebon would not that we should pass by him, because the Lord our God hardened his spirit, and made his heart stubborn, that he might be delivered into your hands, as on this day.
Kasi Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, aboyaki kopesa biso nzela ya kolekela na mokili na ye, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomisaki moto na ye makasi mpe motema na ye libanga, mpo na kokaba ye na maboko na bino ndenge asali lelo.
31 And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have begun to deliver before you Seon the king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land, and do you begin to inherit his land.
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Tala, nabandi kokaba na maboko na bino Sikoni mpe mokili na ye. Banda kobotola yango mpe kamata yango. »
32 And Seon the king of Esebon came forth to meet us, he and all his people to war at Jassa.
Tango Sikoni elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso babimaki mpo na kobundisa biso na Yakatsi,
33 And the Lord our God delivered him before our face, and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.
Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akabaki ye na maboko na biso mpe tobomaki ye, bana na ye ya mibali mpe mampinga na ye nyonso.
34 And we took possession of all his cities at that time, and we utterly destroyed every city in succession, and their wives, and their children; we left no living prey.
Bongo, tobotolaki bingumba na ye nyonso, tobukaki bingumba nyonso, tobomaki mibali, basi mpe bana nyonso; totikaki ata moto moko te.
35 Only we took the cattle captive, and took the spoil of the cities.
Kasi tomemaki mpo na biso: bibwele mpe bomengo ya bitumba oyo tokutaki na bingumba na bango.
36 From Aroer, which is by the brink of the brook of Arnon, and the city which is in the valley, and as far as the mount of Galaad; there was not a city which escaped us: the Lord our God delivered all of them into our hands.
Longwa na Aroeri oyo ezali na suka ya lubwaku ya Arinoni, mpe longwa na engumba oyo ezali kati na lubwaku kino na Galadi, ezalaki na engumba moko te oyo elekaki biso na makasi. Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesaki biso yango nyonso.
37 Only we did not draw near to the children of Amman, even all the parts bordering on the brook Jaboc, and the cities in the mountain country, as the Lord our God charged us.
Kasi bopusanaki te na mokili ya bato ya Amoni, na ngambo nyonso ya lubwaku ya Yaboki, na bingumba ya bangomba, mpe na bisika nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apekisaki biso.
