2 Samuel 19
1 And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.
Sango ekomelaki Joabi na koloba: « Mokonzi azali kolela mpe asali matanga mpo na Abisalomi. »
2 And the victory that day was [turned] into mourning for all the people; for the people heard say that day, The king is grieved for his son.
Mokolo wana, elonga ebongwanaki matanga mpo na bato nyonso, pamba te bato bayokaki na mokolo wana sango koloba: « Mokonzi azali na mawa makasi mpo na mwana na ye ya mobali. »
3 And the people stole away that day into the city, as people steal away when ashamed of fleeing in battle.
Na mokolo wana kaka, bato bazongaki na nkuku kati na engumba lokola mampinga oyo bazali koyoka soni mpo ete bakimi na bitumba.
4 And the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, My son Absalom! Absalom, my son, my son!
Mokonzi azipaki elongi mpe alelaki makasi: « Oh mwana na ngai ya mobali, Abisalomi! Oh mwana na ngai ya mobali, Abisalomi! Mwana na ngai ya mobali! »
5 And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast put to shame this day the faces of all thy servants who have this day saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives and the lives of thy concubines;
Joabi akendeki kokuta mokonzi kati na ndako mpe alobaki na ye: « Lelo, oyokisi bato na yo nyonso soni, bato oyo bawuti kobikisa bomoi na yo, bomoi ya bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi, bomoi ya basi na yo mpe bomoi ya bamakangu na yo.
6 in that thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest those that love thee. For thou hast declared this day, that neither princes nor servants are anything to thee: for to-day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died to-day, then it would have been right in thine eyes.
Olingaka bato oyo bayinaka yo mpe oyinaka bato oyo balingaka yo. Lelo penza, otalisi yango polele ete bakonzi ya basoda mpe basoda na bango bazali pamba na miso na yo. Namoni ete olingaki kosepela lelo soki Abisalomi azalaki na bomoi mpe soki biso nyonso tokufaki.
7 But now arise, go forth, and speak consolingly to thy servants; for I swear by Jehovah, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night; and that would be worse to thee than all the evil that has befallen thee from thy youth until now.
Sik’oyo, bima mpe pesa longonya na basoda na yo. Nalapi ndayi na Kombo na Yawe ete soki obimi te, soda moko te akotikala elongo na yo kino butu eya. Ekozala mpo na yo pasi, koleka makama nyonso oyo ekweyela yo wuta na bolenge na yo kino lelo. »
8 Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told all the people, saying, Behold, the king is sitting in the gate. And all the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
Boye mokonzi atelemaki mpe avandaki na ekuke. Bongo tango bayebisaki basoda ete mokonzi avandi na ekuke, bango nyonso bayaki pene na ye. Mpe na tango wana, bana ya Isalaele bakimaki moto na moto na ndako na ye.
9 And all the people were at strife throughout the tribes of Israel, saying, The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land because of Absalom.
Kati na bikolo ya Isalaele, bato bazalaki kotiana tembe mpe koloba: « Mokonzi oyo akangolaki biso na maboko ya banguna na biso, bato ya Filisitia, ye nde sik’oyo akimi mokili likolo ya Abisalomi;
10 And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle; and now why are ye silent as to bringing the king back?
mpe Abisalomi oyo topakolaki mafuta mpo ete akamba biso asili kokufa na bitumba. Boye mpo na nini bozali koloba eloko te mpo na kozongisa mokonzi na Yelusalemi? »
11 And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Judah saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, to his house.
Mokonzi Davidi atindaki sango epai ya Banganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe Abiatari: « Botuna na bampaka ya Yuda: mpo na nini bosengeli kozala bato ya suka mpo na kozongisa mokonzi na ndako na ye, pamba te makambo oyo ezali kolobama kati na Isalaele mobimba esili kokoma na matoyi ya mokonzi?
12 Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; and why will ye be the last to bring back the king?
Bozali bandeko na ngai ya mibali, nzoto na ngai mpe makila na ngai. Bongo mpo na nini kozala bato ya suka mpo na kozongisa mokonzi?
13 And say to Amasa, Art thou not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually instead of Joab.
Mpe boloba na Amasa: ‹ Ozali mosuni na ngai mpe makila na ngai te? Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai etumbu ya makasi ndenge alingi soki banda sik’oyo okomi te mokonzi ya mampinga na ngai na esika ya Joabi mpo na libela. › »
14 And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah as of one man; and they sent to the king, Return, thou and all thy servants.
Makambo oyo Davidi alobaki ekotaki na mitema ya bato nyonso ya Yuda lokola moto moko. Boye batindaki maloba epai ya mokonzi mpo na koloba na ye: « Zonga, yo elongo na basali na yo nyonso. »
15 And the king returned and came as far as the Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over the Jordan.
Mokonzi azongaki mpe akomaki kino na Yordani. Bato ya Yuda bayaki na Giligali mpo na kokende kokutana na mokonzi mpe kokatisa ye mayi ya Yordani.
16 And Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, who was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
Shimei, mwana mobali ya Gera, moto ya ekolo ya Benjame ya Bawurimi, akendeki mbangu elongo na bato ya Yuda mpo na kokutana na mokonzi Davidi.
17 And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they forded the Jordan before the king.
Azalaki elongo na bato ya Benjame, nkoto moko, mpe Tsiba, moto oyo azalaki kosala kati na libota ya Saulo, elongo na bana na ye ya mibali zomi na mitano mpe basali na ye, tuku mibale. Bakendeki mbangu na Yordani epai wapi mokonzi azalaki.
18 And a ferry boat passed to and fro to carry over the king's household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was [just] crossing over the Jordan.
Bamataki na bwato mpo na kokatisa libota ya mokonzi mpe mpo na kosala nyonso oyo ezali malamu na miso ya mokonzi. Tango Shimei, mwana mobali ya Gera, akatisaki Yordani, akweyaki liboso ya mokonzi
19 And he said to the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity to me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to heart.
mpe alobaki na ye: « Tika ete nkolo na ngai atangela ngai ngambo te, akanisa te mabe oyo mosali na ye asalaki mokolo oyo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, alongwaki na Yelusalemi. Tika ete mokonzi alongola likambo yango na makanisi na ye.
20 For thy servant knows that I have sinned; and behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.
Pamba te ngai, mosali na yo, nayebi ete nasalaki masumu, mpe lelo nayei awa lokola moto ya liboso kati na libota mobimba ya Jozefi mpo na kokutana na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai. »
21 And Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Should not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Jehovah's anointed?
Abishayi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, alobaki: — Boni, Shimei asengelaki te kokufa mpo na likambo oyo, pamba te alakelaki mabe mopakolami na Yawe?
22 And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries to me? Should there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
Davidi azongisaki: — Likambo nini kati na ngai mpe bino bana mibali ya Tseruya? Bokomi lelo banguna na ngai! Boni, basengeli koboma moto moko lelo kati na Isalaele? Nayebi te ete ngai nde nazali lelo mokonzi ya Isalaele?
23 And the king said to Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king swore to him.
Bongo mokonzi alobaki na Shimei: — Okokufa te. Mpe mokonzi alakaki Shimei na nzela ya ndayi.
24 And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king. Now he had neither washed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came [again] in peace.
Mefibosheti, koko ya Saulo, akendeki mpe kokutana na mokonzi. Banda mokolo oyo mokonzi abimaki kino azongaki, Mefibosheti atikalaki kosukola makolo na ye te, akataki mandefu te mpe asukolaki bilamba na ye te.
25 And as soon as Jerusalem came to meet the king, the king said to him, Why didst thou not go with me, Mephibosheth?
Tango akomaki na Yelusalemi mpo na kokutana na mokonzi, Davidi atunaki ye: — Mefibosheti, mpo na nini okendeki te elongo na ngai?
26 And he said, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for thy servant said, I will saddle me the ass, and ride thereon, and go with the king; for thy servant is lame.
Mefibosheti azongisaki: — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mosali na ngai akosaki ngai. Pamba te lokola ngai, mosali na yo, nazali na mbeba na makolo, namilobelaki: « Nakosenga ete babongisela ngai ane na ngai, mpe nakomata yango mpo ete nakende elongo na mokonzi. »
27 And he has slandered thy servant to my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thy sight.
Kasi Tsiba, mosali na ngai, akosaki ngai. Akoselaki mosali na yo makambo epai ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai. Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, azali lokola Anjelu na Nzambe. Boye sala sik’oyo makambo oyo omoni ete ezali malamu.
28 For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king; and thou didst set thy servant among them that eat at thine own table. What further right therefore have I? and for what should I cry any more to the king?
Pamba te na makanisi ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, esengelaki koboma bato nyonso ya libota ya koko na ngai, Saulo; kasi atako bongo, ondimaki mosali na yo na mesa, kati na bato oyo bazali kolia elongo na yo. Boye makoki nini nakoki lisusu kozala na yango ya kosenga eloko epai ya mokonzi?
29 And the king said to him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
Mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini maloba ebele boye? Nasili kopesa mitindo ete yo mpe Tsiba bokabola bilanga.
30 And Mephibosheth said to the king, Let him even take all, since my lord the king is come again in peace to his own house.
Mefibosheti alobaki na ye: — Lokola mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, azongi mobimba na ndako na ye, tika ete akamata na ye ata nyonso.
31 And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over the Jordan with the king, to conduct him over the Jordan.
Barizilayi, moto ya Galadi, awutaki na Rogelimi mpo na kokatisa ebale Yordani elongo na mokonzi mpe kotika ye kokoba mobembo na ye.
32 And Barzillai was very aged, eighty years old; and it was he that had maintained the king while he abode at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
Nzokande, Barizilayi akomaki mobange, azalaki na mibu tuku mwambe, mpe ezalaki ye nde asungaki mokonzi na mikolo nyonso oyo mokonzi avandaki na Maanayimi, pamba te azalaki moto ya bozwi mingi.
33 And the king said to Barzillai, Pass thou over with me, and I will maintain thee with me in Jerusalem.
Mokonzi alobaki na Barizilayi: — Katisa elongo na ngai mpe vanda epai na ngai na Yelusalemi, mpe ngai nakosunga yo.
34 And Barzillai said to the king, How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
Kasi Barizilayi azongiselaki mokonzi: — Natikali na mibu boni mpo ete nakende elongo na mokonzi na Yelusalemi?
35 I am this day eighty years old: can I discern between good and bad? can thy servant taste what I eat and what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? and why should thy servant be yet a burden to my lord the king?
Nazali sik’oyo na mibu tuku mwambe. Boni, nakoki na ngai lisusu kokesenisa malamu mpe mabe? Mosali na yo akoki koyoka lisusu elengi ya biloko oyo azali kolia mpe komela? Nakoki lisusu koyoka mongongo ya bayembi ya mibali mpe ya basi? Bongo mpo na nini mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akoki lisusu komitungisa mpo na mosali na yo?
36 Thy servant will go a little way over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it to me with this reward?
Mosali na yo akokatisa Yordani elongo na mokonzi mpo na mwa tango moke kaka. Kasi mpo na nini mokonzi akoki kopesa ngai lifuti ya boye?
37 Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham: let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what seems good to thee.
Nabondeli yo, tika ete mosali na yo azonga mpo na kokufa na engumba na ngai pene ya kunda ya tata mpe mama na ngai! Kasi tala mwana na ngai ya mobali, mosali na yo, Kimeami. Tika ete akende elongo na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mpe salela ye makambo oyo yo omoni ete ezali malamu.
38 And the king said, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which seems good to thee; and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.
Mokonzi azongisaki: — Tika ete Kimeami akende elongo na ngai, mpe ngai nakosalela ye makambo oyo ezali malamu na miso na yo. Nakosalela ye nyonso oyo akosenga ngai.
39 And all the people went over the Jordan; and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
Sima na bato nyonso kokatisa ebale Yordani, mokonzi mpe akatisaki. Bongo mokonzi apesaki Barizilayi beze mpe apambolaki ye. Mpe Barizilayi azongaki na ndako na ye.
40 And the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him; and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.
Tango mokonzi akatisaki na Giligali, Kimeami mpe akatisaki elongo na ye. Bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe ndambo ya mabota ya Isalaele balekisaki mokonzi.
41 And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David's men with him, over the Jordan?
Kasi na mbala moko, bato nyonso ya Isalaele bayaki epai ya mokonzi mpe balobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini bandeko na biso, bato ya Yuda, bazwaki yo na kobombama? Mpo na nini balekisaki mokonzi na ebale Yordani, elongo na libota na ye mpe bato nyonso ya Davidi elongo na ye?
42 And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to me; and why then are ye angry for this matter? have we eaten anything which came from the king, or has he given us any present?
Bato nyonso ya Yuda bazongiselaki bato ya Isalaele: — Tosalaki bongo, pamba te mokonzi azali ndeko na biso ya mosika te. Bongo mpo na nini kosilika na tina na yango? Boni, tobikaki bomoi na biso mpo na mokonzi? Tozwaki ata eloko moko mpo na biso?
43 And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, I have ten parts in the king and I have also more right in David than thou; and why didst thou slight me? and was not my advice the first, to bring back my king? And the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel.
Bato ya Isalaele bazongiselaki bato ya Yuda: — Tozali na makoki kati na mokonzi koleka mbala zomi, mpe biso nde tozali na makoki mingi koleka bino na tina na Davidi. Mpo na nini bozali komona biso lokola bato pamba. Tozalaki bato ya liboso te na koluka ndenge nini kozongisa mokonzi na biso? Kasi bato ya Yuda bazongiselaki bato ya Isalaele na maloba makasi.
