< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 Now these are the last words of David: David the son of Jesse saith, And the man who was raised up on high, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel saith,
Tala maloba ya suka ya Davidi: Maloba ya Davidi, mwana mobali ya Izayi, moto oyo atombolama na bokonzi, mopakolami ya Nzambe ya Jakobi, moyembi malamu ya banzembo ya Isalaele:
2 The Spirit of Jehovah spoke by me, And his word was on my tongue.
« Molimo na Yawe alobi na nzela na ngai, atie maloba na Ye na monoko na ngai.
3 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me, The ruler among men shall be just, Ruling in the fear of God;
Nzambe oyo azali Libanga ya Isalaele ayebisi ngai: ‹ Mokonzi oyo akambaka bato kati na bosembo mpe botosi epai ya Nzambe,
4 And [he shall be] as the light of the morning, [like] the rising of the sun, A morning without clouds; [When] from the sunshine, after rain, The green grass springeth from the earth.
azali lokola pole ya tongo, tango moyi ebimaka mpe engalaka makasi lokola nde mapata ezali te, lokola kongenga ya sima na mvula oyo ebimisaka matiti na mokili. ›
5 Although my house be not so before God, Yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, Ordered in every way and sure; For [this is] all my salvation, and every desire, Although he make [it] not to grow.
Ezali bongo te mpo na libota na ngai liboso ya Nzambe, pamba te asalaki boyokani ya libela elongo na ngai, boyokani oyo esalema malamu na makambo nyonso, mpe oyo Ye moko abatelaka? Tango nyonso mpe na makambo nyonso, apesaki ngai elonga mpe akokisaki posa ya motema na ngai.
6 But [the sons] of Belial [are] all of them as thorns thrust away, Because they cannot be taken with hands;
Kasi bato nyonso ya kilikili bazali lokola nzete ya nzube oyo babwakaka mosika; basimbaka yango te na maboko pamba.
7 And the man that will touch them provideth himself with iron and the staff of a spear; And they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place.
Moto oyo alingi kosimba yango asengeli kosalela ebende to libaya ya likonga; batumbaka yango kaka na esika oyo ezali. »
8 These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Joseb-Bassebeth, Tachkemonite the chief of the captains: he was Adino the Eznite; he [fought] against eight hundred, slain [by him] at one time.
Tala bakombo ya basoda ya mpiko ya Davidi: Yoshebi-Bashebeti, moto ya Takimoni: azalaki mokonzi ya limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko, abomaki na likonga bato nkama mwambe na etumba moko.
9 And after him, Eleazar the son of Dodo the son of an Ahohite: he was one of the three mighty men with David, when they had defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone up.
Molandi na ye ezalaki Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Dodo, moto ya Aoyi: azalaki moko kati na limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko oyo, elongo na Davidi, babundisaki bato ya Filisitia oyo basanganaki mpo na bitumba, wana bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kokima na likolo ya bangomba.
10 He arose and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave to the sword; and Jehovah wrought a great deliverance that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
Kasi ye ayikaki mpiko kati na bitumba mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia kino alembaki, mpe loboko na ye etikaki mopanga te. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene na mokolo wana. Mampinga bazongaki epai ya Eleazari kaka mpo na kokamata biloko ya bato oyo bakufaki.
11 And after him, Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite: the Philistines were gathered into a troop, and there was there a plot of ground full of lentils, and the people had fled before the Philistines;
Sima na ye, Shama, mwana mobali ya Age, moto ya Arari. Tango bato ya Filisitia basanganaki na Leyi epai wapi ezalaki na elanga moko etonda na misili, basoda ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango.
12 and he stood in the midst of the plot and delivered it, and smote the Philistines, and Jehovah wrought a great deliverance.
Kasi Shama atelemaki na kati-kati ya elanga, abundelaki yango mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene.
13 And three of the thirty chiefs went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam, when the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Mokolo moko, na ebandeli ya eleko ya kobuka bambuma, wana basoda ya bato ya Filisitia batongaki molako na bango kati na lubwaku ya Refayimi, basoda misato kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko bayaki epai ya Davidi, na ebombamelo ya mabanga ya Adulami.
14 And David was then in the stronghold; and the Philistines' garrison was then at Bethlehem.
Na tango yango, Davidi azalaki kati na ebombamelo moko batonga makasi, mpe basoda ya Filisitia bazalaki na Beteleemi.
15 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me to drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate!
Mbala moko, Davidi ayokaki posa ya mayi mpe alobaki: « Nani akomemela ngai mayi ya libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpo ete namela? »
16 And the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate, and took it, and brought it to David; however he would not drink of it, but poured it out to Jehovah.
Basoda nyonso misato ya mpiko bakotaki na mayele kati na molako ya bato ya Filisitia, batokaki mayi na libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpe bamemaki yango epai ya Davidi. Kasi Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango; asopaki yango na mabele lokola likabo ya masanga mpo na Yawe.
17 And he said, Be it far from me, Jehovah, that I should do this thing! is it not the blood of the men that went at the risk of their lives? Therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
Alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe apesa ngai etumbu soki nameli mayi oyo, pamba te ezali lokola makila ya bato oyo bandimaki kokende kokufa mpo na ngai. » Boye, Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango. Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo basoda misato ya mpiko basalaki.
18 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was the chief of three; and he brandished his spear against three hundred and slew them; and he had a name among the three.
Abishayi, ndeko mobali ya Joabi mpe mwana mobali ya Tseruya, azalaki mokonzi ya basoda misato ya mpiko. Abundisaki bato nkama misato na likonga na ye mpe abomaki bango. Boye, kati na bango misato, ye nde akendeki sango koleka.
19 Was he not most honourable of three? and he was their captain; but he did not attain to the [first] three.
Kati na basoda misato ya mpiko, ye nde azwaki lokumu koleka mpe akomaki mokonzi na bango, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya limpinga ya liboso.
20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, son of a valiant man, great in exploits, of Kabzeel: he it was that smote two lions of Moab; and he went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day.
Benaya, moto ya mboka Kabitseli mpe mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, azalaki soda ya mpiko mpe asalaki makambo ebele ya kokamwa: abomaki bilombe mibale ya Moabi; mpe na mokolo ya mvula ya pembe, akitaki na libulu moko ya mayi mpe abomaki kuna nkosi.
21 He also smote the Egyptian, an imposing man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
Ye mpe moto abomaki mbinga mobali moko ya Ejipito, oyo asimbaki likonga na loboko na ye. Abundisaki moto yango ya Ejipito na lingenda, abotolaki ye likonga oyo azalaki na yango na loboko mpe abomaki ye na likonga na ye moko.
22 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he had a name among the three mighty men.
Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, asalaki. Ye mpe akendeki sango kati na basoda misato ya mpiko ya lisanga ya mibale.
23 He was honoured above the thirty, but he did not attain to the [first] three. And David set him in his council.
Kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko, ye nde azalaki na lokumu monene koleka, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya mpiko ya limpinga ya liboso. Mpe Davidi akomisaki ye mokonzi ya bakengeli na ye.
