< 1 Samuel 24 >

1 When Saul was turned from ye Philistims, they told him, saying, Behold, Dauid is in the wildernes of En-gedi.
Sima na Saulo kolanda bato ya Filisitia, azongaki; bongo bayebisaki ye: « Davidi azali sik’oyo kati na esobe ya Eyini-Gedi. »
2 Then Saul tooke three thousande chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seeke Dauid and his men vpon the rocks among the wilde goates.
Na bongo, Saulo azwaki basoda ya mpiko nkoto misato kati na Isalaele mobimba mpe akendeki koluka Davidi mpe bato na ye pene ya etando ya bantaba ya zamba.
3 And hee came to the sheepecoates by the way where there was a caue, and Saul went in to do his easement: and Dauid and his men sate in the inward parts of the caue.
Wana Saulo akomaki pene ya etando ya bameme, oyo ezalaki zingazinga ya nzela, amonaki ebombamelo moko ya monene kati na mabanga mpe akotaki kuna mpo na kosala zongo inene. Nzokande Davidi mpe bato na ye bazalaki na suka, kati na ebombamelo yango.
4 And the men of Dauid said vnto him, See, the day is come, whereof the Lord sayde vnto thee, Beholde, I will deliuer thine enemie into thine hande, and thou shalt doe to him as it shall seeme good to thee. Then Dauid arose and cut off the lap of Sauls garment priuily.
Bato ya Davidi balobaki na ye: Tala mokolo oyo Yawe alobelaki tango alobaki na yo: « Nakokaba monguna na yo na maboko na yo mpo ete osala ye nyonso oyo olingi. » Boye Davidi apusanaki na kobombama mpe akataki songe ya kazaka ya Saulo.
5 And afterward Dauid was touched in his heart, because he had cut off the lappe which was on Sauls garment.
Sima na yango, Davidi ayokaki motema na ye kobeta mpo ete akataki songe ya kazaka ya Saulo.
6 And he said vnto his men, The Lord keepe mee from doing that thing vnto my master the Lords Anoynted, to lay mine hand vpon him: for he is the Anoynted of the Lord.
Alobaki na basoda na ye: « Tika ete Yawe apesa ngai te nzela ya kosala likambo ya boye epai ya nkolo na ngai, mopakolami na Yawe! Loboko na ngai ekoki te kosimba nzoto na ye, pamba te Yawe nde apakolaki ye mafuta. »
7 So Dauid ouercame his seruants with these words, and suffered them not to arise against Saul: so Saul rose vp out of the caue and went away.
Na maloba oyo, Davidi agangelaki bato na ye mpe apekisaki bango kobundisa Saulo. Saulo abimaki na ebombamelo yango mpe akobaki nzela na ye.
8 Dauid also arose afterward, and went out of the caue, and cryed after Saul, saying, O my lorde the King. And when Saul looked behinde him, Dauid inclined his face to the earth, and bowed himselfe.
Tango Davidi mpe abimaki na ebombamelo yango, abengaki Saulo: « Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai! » Tango Saulo atalaki sima na ye, Davidi akitisaki elongi mpe agumbamaki ye moko, elongi na ye kino na mabele.
9 And Dauid saide to Saul, Wherefore giuest thou an eare to mens words, that say, Behold, Dauid seeketh euill against thee?
Alobaki na Saulo: — Mpo na nini olandaka maloba ya bato oyo balobaka na yo ete Davidi azalaka na posa ya kosala yo mabe?
10 Behold, this day thine eyes haue seene, that the Lord had deliuered thee this day into mine hand in the caue, and some bade me kill thee, but I had compassion on thee, and said, I will not lay mine hande on my master: for he is the Lordes Anoynted.
Omoni sik’oyo yo moko na miso na yo ndenge nini Yawe akabaki yo na maboko na ngai kati na ebombamelo, kati na mabanga. Bato mosusu batungisaki ngai ete naboma yo, kasi nabikisaki yo. Nalobaki: « Nakosembola te loboko na ngai mpo na kotelemela nkolo na ngai, pamba te azali mopakolami na Yawe. »
11 Moreouer my father, behold: behold, I say, the lappe of thy garment in mine hand: for when I cut off the lappe of thy garment, I killed thee not. Vnderstad and see, that there is neither euil nor wickednesse in mee, neither haue I sinned against thee, yet thou huntest after my soule to take it.
Oh tata na ngai, tala eteni oyo ya kazaka na yo na loboko na ngai! Nakataki songe ya kazaka na yo, kasi nabomaki yo te. Sik’oyo, sosola mpe yeba ete, kati na ngai, mayele mabe mpe botomboki ezali te. Nasalaki na ngai yo mabe te, kasi yo ozali kolanda ngai mpo na koboma ngai.
12 The Lord be iudge betweene thee and me, and the Lord auenge me of thee, and let not mine hand be vpon thee.
Tika ete Yawe azala Mosambisi kati na ngai mpe yo, mpe tika ete Yawe azongisela yo mabe na mabe oyo osali ngai! Kasi loboko na ngai ekosimba yo te.
13 According as the olde prouerbe sayeth, Wickednesse proceedeth from the wicked, but mine hand be not vpon thee.
Ndenge kaka lisese ya kala elobi: « Misala mabe ewutaka epai ya bato mabe, » loboko na ngai ekosimba yo te.
14 After whom is the King of Israel come out? after whome doest thou pursue? after a dead dog, and after a flea?
Mokonzi ya Isalaele abimi mpo na kobundisa nani? Azali kolanda nani? Mbwa ya kokufa? Nzinzi?
15 The Lord therfore be iudge, and iudge betweene thee and me, and see, and pleade my cause, and deliuer me out of thine hand.
Tika ete Yawe azala Mosambisi na biso mpe akata likambo kati na biso. Tika ete atala likambo na ngai mpe akata yango! Tika ete alongisa ngai mpe akangola ngai wuta na loboko na yo.
16 Whe Dauid had made an end of speaking these words to Saul, Saul sayd, Is this thy voyce, my sonne Dauid? and Saul lift vp his voice, and wept,
Tango Davidi asilisaki koloba na Saulo, Saulo atunaki: — Oyo nazali koyoka ezali solo mongongo na yo Davidi, mwana na ngai? Mpe Saulo alelaki makasi.
17 And sayd to Dauid, Thou art more righteous then I: for thou hast rendred me good, and I haue rendred thee euill.
Alobaki na Davidi: — Ozali penza sembo koleka ngai, pamba te osaleli ngai bolamu, nzokande ngai nasalaki mabe epai na yo!
18 And thou hast shewed this day, that thou hast dealt well with me: forasmuch as when the Lord had closed me in thine hands, thou killedst me not.
Owuti sik’oyo kotalisa ngai bolamu oyo osaleli ngai: Yawe akabaki ngai penza na maboko na yo, kasi oboyaki na yo koboma ngai.
19 For who shall finde his enemie, and let him depart free? wherefore the Lord render thee good for that thou hast done vnto me this day.
Boni, soki moto akutani na monguna na ye, akotika ye kokoba kokende na nzela na ye na kimia? Tika ete Yawe afuta yo malamu mpo na bolamu oyo osaleli ngai na mokolo ya lelo.
20 For now behold, I know that thou shalt be King, and that the kingdome of Israel shall be stablished in thine hand.
Tala, nayebi sik’oyo ete okozala penza mokonzi, mpe bokonzi ya Isalaele ekolendisama na maboko na yo.
21 Sweare now therfore vnto me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seede after me, and that thou wilt not abolish my name out of my fathers house.
Lapa sik’oyo ndayi epai na ngai na Kombo na Yawe ete okoboma bakitani na ngai te to okolimwisa kombo na ngai te wuta na libota ya botata na ngai.
22 So Dauid sware vnto Saul, and Saul went home: but Dauid and his men went vp vnto ye hold.
Boye Davidi alapaki ndayi yango epai ya Saulo. Sima na yango, Saulo azongaki epai na ye. Bongo Davidi mpe bato na ye bazongaki na ebombamelo na bango kati na ngomba.
