< Deuteronomy 2 >
1 Then we turned, and tooke our iourney into the wildernes, by the way of the red Sea, as the Lord spake vnto me: and we compassed mount Seir a long time.
Na sima, tobalukaki mpe tokendeki na esobe, na nzela ya ebale monene ya Barozo ndenge Yawe atindaki ngai, pamba te tobalukaki mikolo ebele zingazinga ya etuka ya ngomba Seiri.
2 And the Lord spake vnto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
3 Ye haue compassed this mountaine long ynough: turne you Northward.
« Bowumeli mingi na kobaluka zingazinga ya etuka ya bangomba oyo; sik’oyo bokende na ngambo ya nor.
4 And warne thou the people, saying, Ye shall go through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraide of you: take ye good heede therefore.
Pesa mitindo oyo epai ya bato: ‹ Bokomi pembeni ya koleka mokili ya bandeko na bino, bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bavandaka na Seiri. Bakobanga bino, kasi bozala mayele.
5 Ye shall not prouoke them: for I wil not giue you of their land so much as a foot breadth, because I haue giuen mount Seir vnto Esau for a possession.
Bobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa bino ata eloko moko te kati na mokili na bango, ezala ata esika ya kotia lokolo na bino. Nasila kopesa, epai na Ezawu, etuka ya ngomba Seiri lokola libula na ye.
6 Ye shall buy meate of them for money to eate, and ye shall also procure water of them for money to drinke.
Bokofuta bango palata mpo na biloko oyo bokolia mpe mpo na mayi oyo bokomela.
7 For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the workes of thine hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wildernes, and the Lord thy God hath bene with thee this fourtie yeere, and thou hast lacked nothing.
Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apamboli bino na misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Abateli bino na esobe oyo ya monene mibu tuku minei. Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali elongo na bino mpe bozangi eloko moko te. › »
8 And when we were departed from our brethren the children of Esau which dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plaine, from Elath, and from Ezion-gaber, we turned and went by the way of the wildernes of Moab.
Na sima, totikaki bandeko na biso, bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bavandaka na Seiri. Tobalukaki wuta na nzela ya Araba oyo ewuta na Eyilati mpe na Etsioni-Geberi, mpe tokendeki na nzela ya esobe ya Moabi.
9 Then the Lord sayd vnto me, Thou shalt not vexe Moab, neither prouoke them to battel: for I wil not giue thee of their land for a possession, because I haue giuen Ar vnto the children of Lot for a possession.
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Bomona bato ya Moabi lokola banguna na bino te mpe bobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa bino ata eloko moko te kati na mokili na bango. Nasila kopesa mokili ya Ari lokola bozwi epai ya bakitani ya Loti. »
10 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great and many, and tall, as the Anakims.
Bato ya Emimi nde bazalaki kovanda kuna na kala. Bazalaki makasi mpe ebele, bingambe lokola bana ya Anaki.
11 They also were taken for gyants as the Anakims: whom the Moabites call Emims.
Bango mpe bazalaki komonana lokola bato ya Refayimi ndenge moko na bana ya Anaki. Kasi bato ya Moabi bazalaki kobenga bango bato ya Emimi.
12 The Horims also dwelt in Seir before time, whome the children of Esau chased out and destroyed them before them, and dwelt in their steade: as Israel shall doe vnto the land of his possession, which the Lord hath giuen them.
Bato ya Ori mpe bazalaki kovanda na Seiri kasi bakitani ya Ezawu babenganaki bango. Babomaki bato ya Ori liboso na bango mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango ndenge kaka Isalaele asalaki mpo na mokili oyo Yawe apesaki bango lokola bozwi.
13 Now rise vp, sayd I, and get you ouer the riuer Zered: and we went ouer the riuer Zered.
Yawe alobaki: « Sik’oyo, botelema mpe bokatisa lubwaku ya Zeredi. » Boye totikaki lubwaku.
14 The space also wherein we came from Kadesh-barnea, vntill we were come ouer the riuer Zered, was eight and thirtie yeeres, vntill all the generation of the men of warre were wasted out from among the hoste, as the Lord sware vnto them.
Mibu tuku misato na mwambe elekaki wuta tango tolongwaki na Kadeshi-Barinea kino tokatisaki lubwaku ya Zeredi. Banda wana, molongo nyonso ya bato oyo babundaki bitumba bakufaki kati na molako ndenge Yawe alapaki ndayi mpo na bango.
15 For in deede the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from among the hoste, till they were consumed.
Loboko ya Yawe ebalukelaki bango kino asilisaki koboma bango nyonso kati na molako.
16 So when all the men of warre were consumed and dead from among the people:
Tango bato ya suka kati na bato oyo bazalaki kobunda bitumba basilaki kokufa,
17 Then the Lord spake vnto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
18 Thou shalt goe through Ar the coast of Moab this day:
« Lelo oyo, okokatisa Moabi mpe Ari.
19 And thou shalt come neere ouer against the children of Ammon: but shalt not lay siege vnto them, nor moue warre against them: for I will not giue thee of the land of the children of Ammon any possession: for I haue giuen it vnto the children of Lot for a possession.
Tango okokoma na mokili ya bato ya Amoni, komona bango lokola banguna te mpe kobundisa bango te, pamba te nakopesa yo ata eteni moko te ya mabele kati na mokili ya bakitani ya bato ya Amoni. Nasilaki kopesa yango lokola bozwi epai ya bakitani ya Loti. »
20 That also was taken for a land of gyants: for gyants dwelt therein afore time, whome the Ammonites called Zamzummims:
Mboka yango mpe emonanaki lokola mboka oyo bato ya Refayimi bazalaki kovanda. Kasi bato ya Amoni bazalaki kobenga bato ya Refayimi: bato ya Zamizumi.
21 A people that was great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims: but the Lord destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them in their inheritance, and dwelt in their stead:
Bazalaki makasi mpe ebele, bingambe kaka lokola bana ya Anaki. Kasi Yawe abomaki bango liboso ya bato ya Amoni. Bato ya Amoni babenganaki bato ya Zamizumi mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango.
22 As he did to the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims before them, and they possessed them, and dwelt in their stead vnto this day.
Yawe asalaki mpe ndenge wana mpo na bakitani ya Ezawu oyo bazalaki kovanda na Seiri tango abomaki bato ya Ori liboso na bango. Bakitani ya Ezawu babenganaki bato ya Ori mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango kino na mokolo ya lelo.
23 And the Auims which dwelt in Hazarim euen vnto Azzah, the Caphtorims which came out of Caphtor destroyed them, and dwelt in their steade.
Ezalaki mpe ndenge moko mpo na bato na Avi oyo bazalaki kovanda na mboka yango kino na Gaza. Bato ya Kafitori, oyo bawuta na mokili ya Kafitori, babomaki bato ya Avi mpe bakomaki kovanda na bisika na bango.
24 Rise vp therefore, sayd the Lord: take your iourney, and passe ouer the riuer Arnon: beholde, I haue giuen into thy hand Sihon, the Amorite, King of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possesse it and prouoke him to battell.
Yawe alobaki: « Botelema, bokende mpe bokatisa lubwaku ya Arinoni. Nakabi na maboko na bino, Sikoni, moto ya Amori mpe mokonzi na Eshiboni, elongo na mokili na ye. Bobanda kobundisa yango mpe bokamata yango.
25 This day wil I begin to send thy feare and thy dread, vpon all people vnder the whole heauen, which shall heare thy fame, and shall tremble and quake before thee.
Lelo, nakosala ete mabota nyonso ya mokili ezala na somo mpe kobanga liboso na bino. Bakoyoka sango ya makambo oyo bokosala, bongo bakolenga mpe bakozanga kimia likolo na bino. »
26 Then I sent messengers out of the wildernes of Kedemoth vnto Sihon King of Heshbon, with wordes of peace, saying,
Wuta na esobe ya Kedemoti, natindaki bantoma epai ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, na maloba ya kimia.
27 Let me passe through thy land: I will go by the hie way: I will neither turne vnto the right hand nor to the left.
Nalobaki: « Tobondeli yo, tika biso tolekela na mokili na yo. Tokoleka kaka na nzela ya monene, tokobaluka te ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi to ya mobali.
28 Thou shalt sell me meate for money, for to eate, and shalt giue me water for money for to drinke: onely I will go through on my foote,
Okotekela biso biloko ya kolia mpe mayi ya komela na motuya ya palata. Kasi tika biso kaka toleka na makolo
29 (As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did vnto me) vntill I be come ouer Iorden, into the land which the Lord our God giueth vs.
ndenge bakitani ya Ezawu, oyo bavandaka na mokili ya Seiri, mpe bato ya Moabi, oyo bavandaka na Ari, basalelaki biso kino tokatisaki Yordani mpe tokotaki kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesi biso. »
30 But Sihon the King of Heshbon would not let vs passe by him: for the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, because hee would deliuer him into thine hand, as appeareth this day.
Kasi Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, aboyaki kopesa biso nzela ya kolekela na mokili na ye, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomisaki moto na ye makasi mpe motema na ye libanga, mpo na kokaba ye na maboko na bino ndenge asali lelo.
31 And the Lord sayd vnto me, Beholde, I haue begun to giue Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possesse and inherite his land.
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Tala, nabandi kokaba na maboko na bino Sikoni mpe mokili na ye. Banda kobotola yango mpe kamata yango. »
32 Then came out Sihon to meete vs, him selfe with all his people to fight at Iahaz.
Tango Sikoni elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso babimaki mpo na kobundisa biso na Yakatsi,
33 But the Lord our God deliuered him into our power, and we smote him, and his sonnes, and all his people.
Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akabaki ye na maboko na biso mpe tobomaki ye, bana na ye ya mibali mpe mampinga na ye nyonso.
34 And we tooke all his cities the same time, and destroyed euery citie, men, and women, and children: we let nothing remaine.
Bongo, tobotolaki bingumba na ye nyonso, tobukaki bingumba nyonso, tobomaki mibali, basi mpe bana nyonso; totikaki ata moto moko te.
35 Onely the cattell we tooke to our selues, and the spoyle of the cities which we tooke,
Kasi tomemaki mpo na biso: bibwele mpe bomengo ya bitumba oyo tokutaki na bingumba na bango.
36 From Aroer, which is by the banke of the riuer of Arnon, and from the citie that is vpon the riuer, euen vnto Gilead: there was not one citie that escaped vs: for the Lord our God deliuered vp all before vs.
Longwa na Aroeri oyo ezali na suka ya lubwaku ya Arinoni, mpe longwa na engumba oyo ezali kati na lubwaku kino na Galadi, ezalaki na engumba moko te oyo elekaki biso na makasi. Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesaki biso yango nyonso.
37 Onely vnto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor vnto any place of the riuer Iabbok, nor vnto the cities in the mountaines, nor vnto whatsoeuer the Lord our God forbade vs.
Kasi bopusanaki te na mokili ya bato ya Amoni, na ngambo nyonso ya lubwaku ya Yaboki, na bingumba ya bangomba, mpe na bisika nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apekisaki biso.
