< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 After this, Dauid asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I go vp into any of the cities of Iudah? And the Lord sayd vnto him, Goe vp. And Dauid sayd Whither shall I goe? Hee then answered, Vnto Hebron.
Sima na yango, Davidi atunaki Yawe: — Nakoki na ngai kokende na moko kati na bingumba ya Yuda? Yawe azongisaki: — Okoki na yo kokende. Davidi atunaki lisusu: — Nakende wapi? Yawe azongisaki: — Kende na Ebron.
2 So Dauid went vp thither, and his two wiues also, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail Nabals wife the Carmelite.
Boye Davidi akendeki kuna elongo na basi na ye mibale: Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli; mpe Abigayili, mwasi oyo akufisaki mobali na ye ya liboso, Nabali, moto ya Karimeli.
3 And Dauid brought vp the men that were with him, euery man with his houshold, and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
Davidi amemaki lisusu mibali oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, moko na moko elongo na libota na ye; mpe bavandaki na bingumba ya Ebron mpe na bamboka na yango ya mike.
4 Then the men of Iudah came, and there they anoynted Dauid King ouer the house of Iudah. And they tolde Dauid, saying, that the men of Iabesh Gilead buried Saul.
Bongo bato ya Yuda bayaki na Ebron mpe bapakolaki kuna Davidi mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi ya libota ya Yuda. Bayebisaki Davidi ete ezali bato ya Yabeshi ya Galadi nde bakundi Saulo.
5 And Dauid sent messengers vnto the men of Iabesh Gilead, and said vnto them, Blessed are ye of the Lord, that yee haue shewed such kindenes vnto your lord Saul, that you haue buried him.
Davidi atindaki bantoma mpo na koloba na bato ya Yabeshi ya Galadi: « Tika ete Yawe apambola bino na ndenge botalisaki motema malamu epai ya nkolo na bino, Saulo, mpe na ndenge bokundaki ye!
6 Therefore now the Lord shewe mercie and trueth vnto you: and I will recompence you this benefite, because ye haue done this thing.
Tika ete Yawe atalisa bino sik’oyo bolamu mpe boyengebene! Lokola bosalaki bongo, ngai mpe nakotalisa bino bolamu yango kaka.
7 Therefore nowe let your handes be strong, and be you valiant: albeit your master Saul bee dead, yet neuerthelesse the house of Iudah hath anoynted me King ouer them.
Sik’oyo, bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko, pamba te nkolo na bino, Saulo, akufi. Kasi boyeba mpe ete bato ya Yuda bapakoli ngai mafuta mpo ete nakoma mokonzi na bango. »
8 But Abner the sonne of Ner that was captaine of Sauls hoste, tooke Ish-bosheth the sonne of Saul, and brought him to Mahanaim,
Na tango wana, Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri, mokonzi ya basoda ya Saulo, azwaki Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, mpe amemaki ye na Maanayimi.
9 And made him King ouer Gilead, and ouer the Ashurites, and ouer Izreel, and ouer Ephraim, and ouer Beniamin, and ouer al Israel.
Akomisaki ye mokonzi ya Galadi, ya bato ya Ashuri mpe ya Jizireyeli, ya Efrayimi, ya Benjame mpe ya Isalaele mobimba.
10 Ish-bosheth Sauls sonne was fourtie yeere olde when he began to reigne ouer Israel, and reigned two yeere: but the house of Iudah followed Dauid.
Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, azalaki na mibu tuku minei ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpe akonzaki mibu mibale. Kasi libota ya Yuda ekanganaki na Davidi.
11 (And the time which Dauid reigned in Hebron ouer the house of Iudah, was seuen yeere and sixe moneths)
Davidi asalaki mibu sambo na sanza motoba na Ebron lokola mokonzi ya libota ya Yuda.
12 And Abner the sonne of Ner, and the seruantes of Ish-bosheth the sonne of Saul went out of Mahanaim to Gibeon.
Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri, elongo na bato ya Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, babimaki wuta na Maanayimi mpo na kokende na Gabaoni.
13 And Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah, and the seruants of Dauid went out and met one another by the poole of Gibeon: and they sate downe, the one on the one side of the poole, and the other on the otherside of the poole.
Joabi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, elongo na basali ya Davidi, bango mpe babimaki mpe bakutanaki na bato ya Abineri pene ya liziba ya Gabaoni: bamoko bazalaki na ngambo moko ya liziba, mpe bamosusu, na ngambo mosusu.
14 Then Abner saide to Ioab, Let the yong men nowe arise, and play before vs. And Ioab said, Let them arise.
Abineri alobaki na Joabi: — Tika ete bilenge mibali batelema mpe babunda liboso na biso! Joabi azongisaki: — Malamu! Tika ete babunda.
15 Then there arose and went ouer twelue of Beniamin by number, which perteined to Ish-bosheth the sonne of Saul, and twelue of the seruants of Dauid.
Boye, wana batelemaki mpe batangaki bango, emonanaki motango oyo: zomi na mibale mpo na libota ya Benjame mpe Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo; mpe zomi na mibale kati na basali ya Davidi.
16 And euery one caught his fellowe by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellowes side, so they fell downe together: wherefore ye place was called Helkath-hazzurim, which is in Gibeon.
Moko na moko asimbaki monguna na ye na moto mpe atobolaki ye mopanga na mopanzi; mpe bango nyonso bakweyaki nzela moko. Bongo babengaki esika yango ya Gabaoni: Elikati-Atsurimi.
17 And the battel was exceeding sore that same day: for Abner and the men of Israel fell before the seruants of Dauid.
Etumba ya mokolo wana ezalaki makasi penza. Basali ya Davidi balongaki Abineri elongo na bato ya Isalaele.
18 And there were three sonnes of Zeruiah there, Ioab, and Abishai, and Asahel. And Asahel was as light on foote as a wilde roe.
Bana mibali misato ya Tseruya bazalaki wana: Joabi, Abishayi mpe Asaeli. Asaeli azalaki mbangu lokola mboloko ya zamba.
19 And Asahel followed after Abner, and in going he turned neither to the right hand nor to the left from Abner.
Asaeli alandaki Abineri na molende penza mpe atikalaki kobaluka te, ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali to ya loboko ya mwasi.
20 Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Art thou Asahel? And he answered, Yea.
Tango Abineri abalukaki mpo na kotala na sima, atunaki: — Ezali yo Asaeli? Asaeli azongisaki: — Iyo, ezali ngai.
21 Then Abner said, Turne thee either to the right hande, or to the left, and take one of the yong men, and take thee his weapons: and Asahel would not depart from him.
Abineri alobaki na ye: — Kende na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali to ya mwasi, bundisa moko kati na bilenge mibali mpe botola ye bibundeli. Kasi Asaeli atikaki te kolanda ye.
22 And Abner saide to Asahel, Depart from me: wherefore shoulde I smite thee to the grounde? howe then shoulde I be able to holde vp my face to Ioab thy brother?
Boye Abineri alobaki lisusu na Asaeli: — Tika kolanda ngai! Mpo na nini kotindika ngai na koboma yo? Bongo ndenge nini nakotala Joabi, ndeko na yo ya mobali, na elongi?
23 And when he woulde not depart, Abner with the hinder ende of the speare smote him vnder the fift ryb, that the speare came out behind him: and he fell downe there, and dyed in his place. And as many as came to the place where Asahel fell downe and dyed, stoode still.
Kasi lokola Asaeli aboyaki kotika kolanda ye, Abineri atubaki Asaeli songe ya likonga na ye na libumu; mpe likonga ebimaki ye na mokongo. Asaeli akweyaki mpe akufaki wana. Moto nyonso oyo azalaki kokoma na esika oyo Asaeli akweyaki mpe akufaki azalaki kotelema.
24 Ioab also and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sunne went downe, when they were come to the hill Ammah, that lieth before Giah, by the way of the wildernesse of Gibeon.
Joabi mpe Abishayi balandaki Abineri; mpe wana moyi ezalaki kolala, bakomaki na etando ya Ama oyo etalani na Guya, na nzela oyo ekenda na esobe ya Gabaoni.
25 And the children of Beniamin gathered them selues together after Abner, and were on an heape and stoode on the top of an hill.
Bato ya Benjame basanganaki sima na Abineri, basalaki lisanga mpe batelemaki na songe ya ngomba moko ya moke.
26 Then Abner called to Ioab, and said, Shall the sworde deuoure for euer? knowest thou not, that it will be bitternesse in the latter ende? howe long then shall it be, or thou bid the people returne from following their brethren?
Abineri abelelaki na Joabi: — Boni, mopanga ekoba na yango koboma tango nyonso? Oyebi te ete ekosuka mabe? Okozela kino tango nini mpo na kopesa mitindo na bato na yo ete balanda lisusu te bandeko na bango?
27 And Ioab sayde, As God liueth, if thou haddest not spoken, surely euen in the morning the people had departed euery one backe from his brother.
Joabi azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Nzambe, soki olobaki te, bato balingaki kokoba kolanda bandeko na bango kino lobi na tongo.
28 So Ioab blew a trumpet, and all the people stoode still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.
Boye Joabi abetaki kelelo, mpe bato nyonso batelemaki, batikaki kolanda Isalaele mpe babundaki lisusu te.
29 And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plaine, and went ouer Iorden, and past through all Bithron till they came to Mahanaim.
Na butu wana nyonso, Abineri mpe bato na ye nyonso batambolaki na etando ya Araba, balekaki Yordani, bakatisaki Bitironi mobimba mpe bakomaki na Maanayimi.
30 Ioab also returned backe from Abner: and when he had gathered all the people together, there lacked of Dauids seruants nineteene men and Asahel.
Joabi atikaki kolanda Abineri mpe azongaki, asangisaki bato na ye nyonso: emonanaki ete bato ya Davidi zomi na libwa kaka nde bazangaki, bakisa Asaeli.
31 But the seruants of Dauid had smitten of Beniamin, and of Abners men, so that three hundreth and threescore men dyed.
Kasi bato ya Davidi babomaki bato ya Benjame nkama misato na tuku motoba oyo bazalaki elongo na Abineri.
32 And they tooke vp Asahel, and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which was in Bethlehem: and Ioab and his men went all night, and when they came to Hebron, the day arose.
Bakamataki Asaeli mpe bakundaki ye kati na kunda ya tata na ye, na Beteleemi. Bongo Joabi mpe bato na ye batambolaki butu mobimba mpe bakomaki na Ebron na tongo-tongo.
