2 Samuel 11
1 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they laid waste the [land of the] children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David abode at Jerusalem.
Na mobu oyo elandaki, na tango oyo bakonzi bazalaka na momesano ya kokende na bitumba, Davidi atindaki Joabi elongo na basali na ye mpe mampinga nyonso ya Isalaele. Babomaki bato ya Amoni mpe bazingelaki Raba. Kasi Davidi atikalaki na Yelusalemi.
2 And it came to pass at evening time that David arose from off his couch, and walked upon the roof of the king's house; and from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful;
Mokolo moko na pokwa, Davidi alamukaki wuta na mbeto na ye mpe atambolaki na veranda ya likolo ya ndako ya mokonzi. Wuta na likolo ya veranda, amonaki mwasi moko azali kosukola. Mwasi yango azalaki kitoko makasi.
3 and David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urijah the Hittite?
Davidi atindaki moto moko kokende koluka koyeba soki mwasi yango azali nani. Moto yango alobaki: « Ezali Batisheba, mwana mwasi ya Eliami, mwasi ya Iri, moto ya Iti. »
4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in to him, and he lay with her; and she had purified herself from her uncleanness; and she returned to her house.
Davidi atindaki bantoma mpo na kozwa ye. Batisheba ayaki epai ya Davidi, mpe Davidi asangisaki na ye nzoto. Sima na ye komipetola na mbindo na ye, Batisheba azongaki na ndako na ye.
5 And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
Akomaki na zemi, mpe atindaki maloba epai ya Davidi: « Nazali na zemi. »
6 And David sent to Joab [saying], Send me Urijah the Hittite. And Joab sent Urijah to David.
Davidi atindaki maloba epai ya Joabi: « Tindela ngai Iri, moto ya Iti. » Joabi atindaki Iri epai ya Davidi.
7 And when Urijah had come to him, David asked how Joab prospered, and how the people prospered, and how the war prospered.
Tango Iri akomaki epai na ye, Davidi atunaki ye soki Joabi azali malamu, soki basoda bazali malamu mpe soki bitumba ezali koleka ndenge nini.
8 And David said to Urijah, Go down to thy house and wash thy feet. And Urijah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him presents from the king.
Bongo Davidi alobaki na Iri: « Kende na ndako na yo mpe sukola makolo na yo. » Iri atikaki ndako ya mokonzi; mpe sima na ye, mokonzi atindelaki ye kado.
9 And Urijah slept at the entrance of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
Kasi Iri alalaki na ekotelo ya ndako ya mokonzi elongo na basali nyonso ya mokonzi na ye; akendeki te na ndako na ye.
10 And they had told David saying, Urijah did not go down to his house; and David said to Urijah, Art thou not come from a journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?
Tango bayebisaki Davidi ete Iri akendeki na ndako te, atunaki ye: — Boni, yo owuti mosika te? Mpo na nini oboyi kozonga na ndako na yo?
11 And Urijah said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah abide in booths; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields: shall I then go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? [As] thou livest, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
Iri azongiselaki Davidi: — Sanduku, Isalaele mpe Yuda bazali kovanda na bandako ya kapo; mpe Joabi, nkolo na ngai, elongo na bato na ye bazali kolala libanda kati na zamba. Ndenge nini ngai nakende na ndako na ngai mpo na kolia, komela mpe kolala na mwasi na ngai? Solo, na kombo na yo mokonzi, nakoki kosala likambo ya boye te.
12 And David said to Urijah, Abide here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee depart. And Urijah abode in Jerusalem that day and the morrow.
Davidi alobaki na Iri: — Vanda lisusu awa lelo, bongo lobi nakozongisa yo. Iri avandaki na Yelusalemi mokolo wana mpe mokolo oyo elandaki.
13 And David invited him, and he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. And in the evening he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, but did not go down to his house.
Davidi abengisaki ye. Iri aliaki mpe amelaki elongo na ye, mpe Davidi alangwisaki ye. Kasi na pokwa, Uri abimaki mpo na kokende kolala na mbeto na ye elongo na basali ya mokonzi, kasi akendeki na ndako na ye te.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by Urijah.
Na tongo, Davidi akomelaki Joabi mokanda mpe atindaki yango na nzela ya Iri.
15 And he wrote in the letter saying, Set Urijah in the front of the thickest fight, and withdraw from him, that he may be smitten and die.
Kati na mokanda yango, akomaki boye: « Tia Iri na molongo ya liboso, na esika oyo bitumba ezali makasi. Mpe bino, bozonga sima na ye mpo ete babeta ye mpe akufa. »
16 And it came to pass as Joab watched the city, that he assigned Urijah to a place where he knew that the valiant men were.
Joabi oyo azalaki kokengela engumba, atiaki Iri na esika oyo ayebaki ete ezali penza na basoda ya mpiko.
17 And the men of the city went out and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, of the servants of David; and Urijah the Hittite died also.
Bongo tango bato ya engumba babimaki mpo na kobundisa Joabi, ndambo ya basoda kati na mampinga ya Davidi bakufaki; Iri, moto ya Iti, mpe akufaki.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the matters of the war;
Joabi atindelaki Davidi sango nyonso ya bitumba.
19 and charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast ended telling the matters of the war to the king,
Apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya ntoma: « Tango okosilisa kopesa sango ya bitumba epai ya mokonzi,
20 and if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say to thee, Why did ye go so near to the city to fight? did ye not know that they would shoot from the wall?
mokonzi akoki kotomboka mpe kotuna yo: ‹ Mpo na nini bopusanaki makasi pembeni ya engumba mpo na kobunda? Boyebaki te ete bakokaki kobeta batolotolo wuta na mir?
21 Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast the upper stone of a handmill from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why did ye go near the wall? — then say thou, Thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
Nani abomaki Abimeleki, mwana mobali ya Yerubesheti? Ezalaki te mwasi oyo, wuta na likolo ya mir, abwakelaki ye libanga oyo banikelaka ble, yango wana akufaki na Tebesi? Mpo na nini bopusanaki pembeni ya mir? › Soki atuni yo bongo, loba na ye: ‹ Mosali na yo, Iri, moto ya Iti, mpe akufi. › »
22 And the messenger went; and he came and told David all that Joab had sent him for.
Motindami akendeki, mpe tango akomaki, ayebisaki Davidi makambo nyonso oyo Joabi atindaki ye koloba.
23 And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and came out against us into the field, and we were upon them as far as the entrance of the gate.
Alobaki na Davidi: — Bato yango bazalaki makasi koleka biso, bayaki kobundisa biso na libanda, mpe tobenganaki bango kino na ekotelo ya engumba.
24 And the shooters shot from upon the wall against thy servants; and some of the king's servants are dead, and thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
Bongo basoda oyo babundaka na batolotolo babetaki na batolotolo na bango basali na yo wuta na likolo ya mir. Ndambo ya bato ya mokonzi bakufaki, ezala mosali na yo, Iri, moto ya Iti, mpe akufaki.
25 Then David said to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devours one as well as another: make thy battle strong against the city, and overthrow it; — and encourage him.
Davidi alobaki na ntoma: — Tala makambo oyo okoloba na Joabi: « Tika ete likambo oyo etungisa yo te. Mopanga ekoki koboma songolo to pakala. Sala makasi mpo na kobundisa engumba mpe bebisa yango. » Loba makambo oyo mpo na kolendisa Joabi.
26 And the wife of Urijah heard that Urijah her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.
Tango mwasi ya Iri ayokaki ete mobali na ye akufi, asalelaki ye matanga.
27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
Sima na matanga, Davidi abengisaki mwasi ya Uri kati na ndako na ye mpe akomisaki ye mwasi na ye. Mwasi yango abotelaki Davidi mwana mobali. Kasi likambo oyo Davidi asalaki esepelisaki Yawe te.
