1 Kings 20
1 Then Ben-hadad the King of Aram assembled all his armie, and two and thirtie Kings with him, with horses, and charets, and went vp and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Beni-Adadi, mokonzi ya Siri, asangisaki mampinga na ye nyonso elongo na bakonzi tuku misato na mibale na bampunda mpe bashar; akendeki kozingela Samari mpe abundisaki yango.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab King of Israel, into the citie,
Atindaki bantoma kati na engumba epai ya Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele
3 And sayd vnto him, Thus sayth Ben-hadad, Thy siluer and thy golde is mine: also thy women, and thy fayre children are mine.
na maloba oyo: — Tala maloba oyo Beni-Adadi alobi: « Palata mpe wolo na yo ezali ya ngai; basi na yo mpe bana mibali na yo, oyo baleki kitoko bazali ya ngai. »
4 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, My lord King, according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I haue.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele azongisaki: — Ezali ndenge kaka olobi, mokonzi, nkolo na ngai; ngai mpe nyonso oyo nazali na yango ezali ya yo.
5 And when the messengers came againe, they said, Thus commandeth Ben-hadad, and saith, When I shall send vnto thee, and command, thou shalt deliuer me thy siluer and thy golde, and thy women, and thy children,
Bantoma bazongaki lisusu mpe balobaki: — Tala maloba oyo Beni-Adadi alobi: « Napesaki yo mitindo ete opesa ngai palata na yo, wolo na yo, basi na yo mpe bana na yo ya mibali.
6 Or els I will sende my seruants vnto thee by to morow this time: and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy seruants: and whatsoeuer is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall take it in their handes, and bring it away.
Kasi yeba malamu ete lobi, na ngonga oyo, nakotinda basali na ngai mpo na kotala malamu-malamu ndako na yo mpe bandako ya basali na yo. Bakozwa nyonso ya motuya na miso na yo mpe bakomema yango. »
7 Then the King of Israel sent for all the Elders of the land, and sayd, Take heede, I pray you, and see how he seeketh mischiefe: for he sent vnto me for my wiues, and for my children, and for my siluer, and for my golde, and I denyed him not.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele abengisaki bampaka nyonso ya mboka mpe alobaki na bango: — Botala ndenge nini moto oyo azali koluka makambo! Tango asengaki ngai basi na ngai mpe bana na ngai ya mibali, wolo mpe palata na ngai, napimelaki ye yango te.
8 And all the Elders, and all the people sayd to him, Hearken not vnto him, nor consent.
Bampaka mpe bato nyonso balobaki na ye: — Koyokela ye te mpe kondima bisengeli na ye te.
9 Wherefore hee sayde vnto the messengers of Ben-hadad, Tell my lorde the King, All that thou didddest sende for to thy seruant at the first time, that I will doe, but this thing I may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him an answere.
Boye Akabi azongisaki epai ya bantoma ya Beni-Adadi: — Boloba na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai: « Mosali na yo akosala nyonso oyo osengaki liboso; kasi na oyo ya mibale, nakosala yango te. » Bazongaki mpe bamemaki eyano epai ya Beni-Adadi.
10 And Ben-hadad sent vnto him, and sayde, The gods do so to me and more also, if the dust of Samaria be ynough to all the people that follow me, for euery man an handfull.
Beni-Adadi atindaki maloba mosusu epai ya Akabi: — Tika ete banzambe bapesa ngai etumbu ya makasi koleka soki etikali na Samari putulu oyo ekoki kotondisa ata loboko ya moko na moko ya bato oyo bazali kolanda ngai.
11 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth his harneis, boast himselfe, as he that putteth it off.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele azongisaki: — Boloba na ye: « Moto oyo alati bibundeli asengeli komikumisa te lokola moto oyo alongoli bibundeli! »
12 And when he heard that tidings, as he was with the Kings drinking in the pauilions, he sayd vnto his seruants, Bring forth your engines, and they set them against the citie.
Beni-Adadi ayokaki sango yango tango ye elongo na bakonzi bazalaki komela na bandako ya kapo. Apesaki mitindo epai ya bato na ye: — Bomibongisa mpo na etumba. Boye, bamibongisaki mpo na kobundisa engumba.
13 And beholde, there came a Prophet vnto Ahab King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Hast thou seene all this great multitude? beholde, I will deliuer it into thine hande this day, that thou mayest knowe, that I am the Lord.
Na tango wana kaka, mosakoli moko ayaki epai ya Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpe alobaki na ye: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Ozali komona mampinga monene oyo? Nakopesa yango lelo na maboko na yo, bongo okoyeba ete nazali Yawe. »
14 And Ahab sayd, By whome? And he sayde, Thus sayth the Lord, By the seruants of the princes of the prouinces. He sayde againe, Who shall order the battel? And he answered, Thou.
Akabi atunaki: — Kasi nani akosala yango? Mosakoli azongisaki: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Bakonzi ya basoda ya bilenge, bakonzi ya basoda ya bamboka mike nde bakosala yango. » Akabi atunaki: — Nani akobanda etumba? Mosakoli azongisaki: — Ezali yo nde moto okobanda.
15 Then he nombred the seruantes of the princes of the prouinces, and they were two hundreth, two and thirtie: and after them he nombred the whole people of all the children of Israel, euen seuen thousand.
Akabi abengisaki bakonzi ya basoda ya bilenge, bakonzi ya basoda ya bamboka mike; bango nyonso bazalaki bato nkama mibale na tuku misato na mibale. Asangisaki lisusu bato ya Isalaele oyo batikalaki: bazalaki bango nyonso bato nkoto sambo.
16 And they went out at noone: but Ben-hadad did drinke till he was drunken in the tentes, both he and the Kings: for two and thirtie Kings helped him.
Babimaki na midi na tango Beni-Adadi elongo na bakonzi tuku misato na mibale, oyo bazalaki na ngambo na ye, bazalaki kolangwa masanga na bandako na bango ya kapo.
17 So the seruants of the princes of the prouinces went out first: and Ben-hadad sent out, and they shewed him, saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
Bakonzi ya basoda ya bilenge babimaki bato ya liboso. Nzokande Beni-Adadi azwaki sango epai ya banongi na ye oyo balobaki na ye: — Bato bazali kopusana wuta na engumba Samari.
18 And he sayde, Whether they be come out for peace, take them aliue: or whether they bee come out to fight, take them yet aliue.
Beni-Adadi alobaki: — Soki bayei mpo na kimia, bakanga bango ya bomoi; kasi soki mpe bayei mpo na bitumba, kokanga bango ya bomoi.
19 So they came out of the citie, to wit, the seruants of the princes of the prouinces, and the hoste which followed them.
Bakonzi ya basoda ya bilenge babimaki na engumba elongo na mampinga sima na bango.
20 And they slew euery one his enemie: and the Aramites fled, and Israel pursued them: but Ben-hadad ye King of Aram escaped on an horse with his horsemen.
Soda moko na moko abomaki monguna na ye. Boye bato ya Siri bakimaki, mpe bato ya Isalaele balandaki bango. Kasi Beni-Adadi, mokonzi ya Siri, akimaki na mpunda elongo na ndambo ya basoda na ye, oyo batambolaka na bashar.
21 And the King of Israel went out, and smote the horses and charets, and with a great slaughter slew he the Aramites.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele apusanaki, abebisaki bampunda elongo na bashar mpe alongaki bato ya Siri na elonga monene.
22 (For there had come a Prophet to the King of Israel, and had sayd vnto him, Goe, be of good courage, and consider, and take heede what thou doest: for when the yeere is gone about, the King of Aram wil come vp against thee)
Sima na yango, mosakoli ayaki epai ya mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe alobaki: — Lendisa basoda na yo mpe tala nini okoki kosala, pamba te na mobu oyo ekoya, mokonzi ya Siri akoya kobundisa yo lisusu.
23 Then the seruants of the King of Aram said vnto him, Their gods are gods of the moutaines, and therefore they ouercame vs: but let vs fight against them in the playne, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them.
Na tango wana bakalaka ya mokonzi ya Siri bapesaki ye toli: « Banzambe na bango bazali banzambe ya bangomba. Yango wana balekaki biso na makasi, kasi soki tobundi na bango na bitando, tokoleka bango solo na makasi.
24 And this doe, Take the Kings away, euery one out of his place, and place captaines for them.
Sala boye: longola bakonzi nyonso na bisika na bango mpe tia bakonzi mosusu ya basoda na bisika ya bato oyo ya liboso.
25 And nomber thy selfe an armie, like the armie that thou hast lost, with such horses, and such charets, and we wil fight against them in the plaine, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them: and he hearkened vnto their voyce, and did so.
Osengeli mpe lisusu kobongisa mampinga lokola oyo owutaki kobungisa: mpunda mpo na mpunda, shar mpo na shar, mpo ete tokoka kobundisa Isalaele na etando. Solo, tokoleka bango na makasi. » Beni-Adadi ayokaki bango mpe asalaki bongo.
26 And after the yeere was gone about, Ben-hadad nombred the Aramites, and went vp to Aphek to fight against Israel.
Na mobu oyo elandaki, Beni-Adadi asangisaki mampinga na ye ya Siri mpe amataki na Afeki mpo na kobundisa Isalaele.
27 And the children of Israel were nombred, and were all assembled and went against them, and the children of Israel pitched before them, like two litle flockes of kiddes: but the Aramites filled the countrey.
Akabi mpe na ngambo na ye, asangisaki bato ya Isalaele mpe apesaki bango bibundeli; boye babimaki mpo na kobundisa bato ya Siri. Bato ya Isalaele batongaki milako oyo ezalaki kotalana na bato ya Siri. Mampinga na bango ezalaki lokola bitonga mibale ya mike ya bantaba wana bato ya Siri batondaki na etando mobimba.
28 And there came a man of God, and spake vnto the King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Because the Aramites haue sayd, The Lord is the God of the mountaines, and not God of the valleis, therefore will I deliuer all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Moto na Nzambe ayaki mpe alobaki na mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Lokola bato ya Siri bakanisi ete Ngai nazali nzambe ya bangomba, kasi ya etando te, nakokaba mampinga monene oyo na maboko na yo mpe okoyeba ete Ngai nazali Yawe. »
29 And they pitched one ouer against the other seuen dayes, and in the seuenth day the battel was ioyned: and the children of Israel slew of the Aramites an hundreth thousand footemen in one day.
Mikolo sambo, milako ya mampinga nyonso mibale ezalaki etalana. Na mokolo ya sambo, etumba ebandaki mpe bato ya Isalaele babomaki basoda ya mpiko ya Siri nkoto nkama moko.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek into the citie: and there fel a wall vpon seuen and twentie thousand men that were left: and Ben-hadad fled into the citie, and came into a secret chamber.
Basoda ya mpiko ya Siri oyo batikalaki, bakimaki na Afeki epai wapi mir ekweyelaki bato nkoto tuku mibale na sambo. Beni-Adadi akimaki na engumba mpe abombamaki na shambre ya kati penza.
31 And his seruants sayd vnto him, Beholde nowe, we haue heard say that the Kings of the house of Israel are mercifull Kings: we pray thee, let vs put sacke cloth about our loynes, and ropes about our heads, and goe out to the King of Israel: it may be that he will saue thy life.
Bakalaka na ye balobaki na ye: — Tala, toyokaki ete bakonzi ya Isalaele bazalaka malamu. Pesa nzela ete tokende epai ya mokonzi ya Isalaele, tolata bilamba ya saki na loketo na biso mpe basinga na mito na biso; tango mosusu bakoki kobikisa bomoi na yo.
32 Then they gyrded sackecloth about their loynes, and put ropes about their heads, and came to the King of Israel, and sayd, Thy seruant Ben-hadad sayth, I pray thee, let me liue: and he sayd, Is he yet aliue? he is my brother.
Boye balataki bango nyonso bilamba ya saki, bakangaki basinga na mito na bango mpe bakendeki epai ya mokonzi ya Isalaele. Balobaki na ye: — Mosali na yo Beni-Adadi abondeli yo ete oboma ye te. Akabi atunaki: — Boni, azali nanu na bomoi? Azali kaka ndeko na ngai.
33 Now the men tooke diliget heede, if they could catch any thing of him, and made haste, and sayd, Thy brother Ben-hadad. And he sayd, Go, bring him. So Ben-hadad came out vnto him, and he caused him to come vp vnto the chariot.
Bantoma ya Beni-Adadi bazwaki eyano yango lokola elembo ya malamu, bakangamaki na maloba wana mpe bagangaki na esengo: — Beni-Adadi azali solo ndeko na yo. Akabi azongisaki: — Bokende kozwa ye. Beni-Adadi abimaki na esika oyo abombamaki mpe ayaki epai ya Akabi, bongo Akabi amatisaki ye na shar na ye.
34 And Ben-hadad sayd vnto him, The cities, which my father tooke from thy father, I wil restore, and thou shalt make streetes for thee in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria. Then said Ahab, I will let thee goe with this couenant. So he made a couenant with him, and let him goe.
Beni-Adadi alobaki: — Bingumba nyonso oyo tata na ngai abotolaki tata na yo, nazongiseli yo yango; okotonga zando na yo na Damasi mpo na koteka biloko na yo ndenge kaka tata na ngai asalaki na Samari. Akabi azongisaki: — Nakotika yo kokende soki nasali boyokani elongo na yo. Akabi asalaki boyokani elongo na Beni-Adadi mpe atikaki ye kozonga epai na ye.
35 Then a certaine man of the children of the Prophets sayd vnto his neighbour by the comandement of the Lord, Smite me, I pray thee. But the man refused to smite him.
Na tango wana, moko kati na bana ya basakoli alobaki na moninga na ye, na etinda ya Yawe: — Nasengi na yo ete obeta ngai. Kasi moninga na ye aboyaki kobeta ye.
36 Then sayd he vnto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voyce of the Lord, beholde, as soone as thou art departed from me, a lyon shall slay thee. So when he was departed from him, a lyon found him and slew him.
Bongo alobaki na ye: — Lokola oboyi kotosa Liloba na Yawe, tango kaka okotika ngai, nkosi ekoboma yo. Moninga na ye akendeki, akutanaki na nkosi, mpe ebomaki ye.
37 Then he founde another man, and sayde, Smite mee, I pray thee. And the man smote him, and in smiting wounded him.
Mwana wana ya basakoli akendeki kokutana na moto mosusu mpe asengaki na ye ete abeta ye. Moto wana abetaki ye makasi mpe azokisaki ye.
38 So the Prophet departed, and wayted for the King by the way, and disguised himselfe with ashes vpon his face.
Mwana ya basakoli amibongolaki na elateli na ye, azipaki elongi na ye na nzela ya eteni ya elamba mpo ete bayeba ye te, mpe akendeki kotelema na nzela oyo mokonzi Akabi akolekela.
39 And when the King came by, he cried vnto the King, and said, Thy seruant went into the middes of the battel: and beholde, there went away a man, whom another man brought vnto me, and sayd, Keepe this man: if he be lost, and want, thy life shall go for his life, or els thou shalt pay a talent of siluer.
Tango mokonzi azalaki koleka, mosakoli agangaki: — Mokonzi, wana nazalaki kati na bitumba, moto moko abimaki kati na mampinga mpe amemelaki ngai mokangami ya bitumba. Alobaki na ngai: « Batela moto oyo ete akima te! Soki akimi, okokufa na esika na ye to okofuta ngai palata nkoto misato. »
40 And as thy seruant had here and there to do, he was gone: And the King of Israel said vnto him, So shall thy iudgement be: thou hast giuen sentence.
Wana mosali na yo azalaki kosala awa, kuna, mokangami yango akimaki. Bongo Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, alobaki: — Etumbu na yo ekozala ndenge kaka olobi.
41 And hee hasted, and tooke the ashes away from his face: and the King of Israel knewe him that he was of the Prophets:
Mbala moko, mosakoli alongolaki eteni ya elamba oyo ezipaki elongi na ye; mpe Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, asosolaki ete moto yango azali moko kati na bana ya basakoli.
42 And he said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast let goe out of thine handes a man whom I appoynted to dye, thy life shall goe for his life, and thy people for his people.
Mosakoli alobaki na mokonzi: — Tala maloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Lokola obikisi moto oyo Ngai nakatelaki etumbu ya kufa, yo nde moto okokufa na esika na ye; mpe bato na yo bakokufa na esika ya bato na ye. »
43 And the King of Israel went to his house heauie and in displeasure, and came to Samaria.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele azongaki epai na ye, na Samari, na mawa mpe na kanda.
