1 Samuel 31
1 Now the Philistims fought against Israel, and the me of Israel fled away from ye Philistims, and they fell downe wounded in mount Gilboa.
Bato ya Filisitia bazalaki kobundisa Isalaele, kasi bato ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango mpe mingi kati na bango bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
2 And the Philistims preassed sore vpon Saul and his sonnes, and slewe Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua Sauls sonnes.
Bato ya Filisitia balandaki Saulo elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, kasi babomaki bana na ye ya mibali: Jonatan, Abinadabi mpe Maliki-Shuwa.
3 And when the battel went sore against Saul, the archers and bowmen hit him, and hee was sore wounded of the archers.
Bongo bitumba ekomaki mpo na koboma Saulo. Tango basoda oyo babundaka na matolotolo bamonaki Saulo, ye Saulo alengaki na somo.
4 Then saide Saul vnto his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust mee through therewith, lest the vncircumcised come and thrust me through and mocke me: but his armour bearer would not, for hee was sore afraid. Therefore Saul tooke a sworde and fell vpon it.
Saulo alobaki na soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye: « Bimisa mopanga na yo na ebombelo na yango mpe boma ngai, noki te bato oyo bakatama ngenga te bakoya kotuba ngai mpe kosakanela ngai. » Kasi soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye aboyaki, pamba te azalaki kobanga. Bongo Saulo akamataki mopanga na ye mpe amibwakaki na likolo na yango.
5 And when his armour bearer sawe that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon his sword, and dyed with him.
Tango soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye amonaki ete Saulo akufi, ye mpe amibwakaki na likolo ya mopanga na ye mpe akufaki elongo na Saulo.
6 So Saul dyed, and his three sonnes, and his armour bearer, and all his men that same day together.
Ezalaki bongo nde Saulo, bana na ye misato ya mibali, soda oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye mpe basoda na ye nyonso bakufaki bango nyonso elongo mokolo wana.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they of the other side Iorden saw that the men of Israel were put to flight, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, then they left the cities, and ran away: and the Philistims came and dwelt in them.
Tango bato ya Isalaele, oyo bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya lubwaku mpe ba-oyo bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani bamonaki ete mampinga ya Isalaele esili kopanzana, mpe ete Saulo mpe bana na ye ya mibali bakufi, basundolaki bingumba na bango mpe bakimaki. Bato ya Filisitia bayaki kovanda na bingumba yango.
8 And on the morowe when the Philistims were come to spoyle them that were slaine, they founde Saul and his three sonnes lying in mount Gilboa,
Na mokolo oyo elendaki, tango bato ya Filisitia bayaki mpo na kolongola biloko oyo ezalaki na banzoto ya bibembe, bamonaki Saulo mpe bana na ye misato ya mibali oyo bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped him out of his armour, and sent into the land of ye Philistims on euery side, that they should publish it in the temple of their idoles, and among the people.
Bakataki moto ya Saulo, bazwaki bibundeli na ye mpe batindaki bato na mokili mobimba ya bato ya Filisitia mpo ete bapanza sango malamu oyo ya elonga kati na tempelo ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe kati na bato na bango.
10 And they layed vp his armour in the house of Ashtaroth, but they hanged vp his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
Batiaki bibundeli ya Saulo kati na tempelo ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko, Asitarite, mpe badiembikaki nzoto na ye na mir ya Beti-Sheani.
11 When the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead heard, what the Philistims had done to Saul,
Tango bavandi ya Yabeshi kati na Galadi bayokaki makambo oyo bato ya Filisitia basalaki Saulo,
12 Then they arose (as many as were strong men) and went all night, and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Iabesh, and burnt them there,
bilombe na bango nyonso batelemaki mpe batambolaki butu mobimba mpo na kokoma na Beti-Sheani. Bongo sima na bango kokitisa bibembe ya Saulo mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali wuta na mir, bazongaki na Yabeshi epai wapi batumbaki yango.
13 And tooke their bones and buried them vnder a tree at Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
Bazwaki mikuwa na bango, bakundaki yango na Yabeshi, na se ya nzete ya tamarisi, mpe bakilaki bilei mikolo sambo.
