< 1 Samuel 22 >

1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave of Adullam; and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.
Davidi alongwaki na Gati mpe akendeki kobombama na lidusu ya libanga ya Adulami. Tango bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe ya libota ya botata na ye bayokaki sango yango, bakitaki kuna epai na ye.
2 And every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him; and he became captain over them; and there were with him about four hundred men.
Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na minyoko, ba-oyo bazalaki na baniongo ya bato mosusu mpe ba-oyo mitema na bango ezoka, basanganaki zingazinga ya Davidi mpe akomaki mokambi na bango. Elongo na ye, ezalaki na bato pene nkama minei.
3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab; and he said unto the king of Moab: 'Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me.'
Kolongwa wana, Davidi akendeki na Mitsipe ya Moabi mpe alobaki na mokonzi ya Moabi: « Nabondeli yo: Pesa tata na ngai mpe mama na ngai ndingisa ya koya kovanda elongo na yo kino ngai nakoyeba makambo oyo Nzambe akosala mpo na ngai. »
4 And he brought them before the king of Moab; and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the stronghold.
Boye Davidi amemaki bango epai ya mokonzi ya Moabi, mpe bavandaki elongo na ye tango nyonso oyo Davidi azalaki kati na ndako ya makasi.
5 And the prophet Gad said unto David: 'Abide not in the stronghold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah.' Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hereth.
Kasi mosakoli Gadi alobaki na Davidi: « Kovanda te kati na ndako oyo batonga makasi, kende na mokili ya Yuda. » Boye Davidi alongwaki mpe akendeki na zamba ya Ereti.
6 And Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him; now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk-tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him.
Saulo ayokaki ete bamonaki Davidi elongo na bato na ye. Wana Saulo azalaki na mopanga na loboko na ye mpe avandaki na Gibea, na likolo ya ngomba moke mpe na se ya nzete oyo babengi « Tamarisi » elongo na bakonzi nyonso ya mampinga na ye,
7 And Saul said unto his servants that stood about him: 'Hear now, ye Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, will he make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds;
Saulo ayebisaki bango: « Bino bato ya Benjame boyoka, bokanisi ete mwana ya Izayi akopesa bino nyonso bilanga mpe bilanga ya vino? Bokanisi ete akokomisa bino bakonzi ya bankoto to bakonzi ya bankama ya basoda?
8 that all of you have conspired against me, and there was none that disclosed it to me when my son made a league with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or discloseth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?'
Ezali mpo na yango nde bino nyonso bosalelaki ngai likita? Moto moko te alobi na ngai na tina na boyokani oyo mwana na ngai ya mobali asalaki na mwana ya Izayi, mpe moko te kati na bino ayokeli ngai mawa mpo ete ayebisa ngai ete mwana na ngai asaleli ngai likita mpo ete mosali na ngai atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo? »
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said: 'I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
Kasi Doegi, moto ya Edomi, oyo azalaki moko kati na basali ya Saulo, alobaki: « Namonaki mwana mobali ya Izayi koya na Nobi epai ya Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi.
10 And he inquired of the LORD for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.'
Ayimeleki atunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Yawe, mpe apesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga ya Goliati, moto ya Filisitia. »
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob; and they came all of them to the king.
Boye mokonzi abengisaki Nganga-Nzambe Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi; elongo na Banganga-Nzambe nyonso, bato ya libota na ye ya botata, oyo bazalaki na Nobi. Mpe bango nyonso bayaki epai ya mokonzi.
12 And Saul said: 'Hear now, thou son of Ahitub.' And he answered: 'Here I am, my lord.'
Saulo alobaki: — Yoka sik’oyo, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi. Ayimeleki azongisaki: — Nazali koyoka yo, nkolo na ngai.
13 And Saul said unto him: 'Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?'
Saulo alobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini yo mpe mwana mobali ya Izayi bosalelaki ngai likita mpo na kotelemela ngai? Mpo na nini opesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga, mpe otunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Nzambe, mpo ete atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo?
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said: 'And who among all thy servants is so trusted as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and giveth heed unto thy bidding, and is honourable in thy house?
Ayimeleki azongiselaki mokonzi: — Boni, ezali na moto moko kati na basali na yo nyonso oyo azali na boyengebene lokola Davidi? Ye oyo azali bokilo ya mokonzi, mokambi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka yo mpe moto oyo aleki na lokumu kati na libota na yo?
15 Have I to-day begun to inquire of God for him? be it far from me; let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, less or more.'
Boni, mokolo wana ezalaki mbala na ngai ya liboso ya kotuna mpo na ye makambo epai ya Nzambe? Nakanisi ete ezali bongo te. Boye tika ete mokonzi atangela mosali na ye to moko kati na libota ya botata na ngai ngambo te; pamba te mosali na yo ayebi ata eloko moko te kati na likambo oyo nyonso.
16 And the king said: 'Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.'
Kasi mokonzi alobaki: — Ayimeleki, okokufa solo; yo mpe libota mobimba ya botata na yo.
17 And the king said unto the guard that stood about him: 'Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he fled, and did not disclose it to me.' But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD.
Boye, mokonzi atindaki bakengeli na ye, oyo bazalaki na mopanzi na ye: « Bobaluka mpe boboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe; pamba te bango mpe basungaki Davidi: bayebaki ete Davidi azalaki kokima kasi bayebisaki ngai te. » Kasi basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi baboyaki kosembola maboko na bango mpo na koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
18 And the king said to Doeg: 'Turn thou, and fall upon the priests.' And Doeg the Edomite turned, and he fell upon the priests, and he slew on that day fourscore and five persons that did wear a linen ephod.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya Doegi: « Yo, baluka mpe boma Banganga-Nzambe. » Boye Doegi, moto ya Edomi, abalukaki mpe abomaki bango. Na mokolo wana, abomaki bato tuku mwambe na mitano oyo balataki efode ya lino.
19 And Nob, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen and asses and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
Abomaki lisusu na mopanga kati na Nobi, engumba ya Banganga-Nzambe, mibali, basi, bana mpe bana mike, bangombe, ba-ane mpe bameme.
20 And one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.
Kaka Abiatari, mwana mobali ya Ayimeleki mpe koko ya Ayitubi, nde abikaki mpe akimaki mpo na kokende kosangana na Davidi.
21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain the LORD'S priests.
Abiatari ayebisaki Davidi ete Saulo asili koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
22 And David said unto Abiathar: 'I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul; I have brought about the death of all the persons of thy father's house.
Boye Davidi alobaki na Abiatari: « Mokolo wana, nayebaki malamu ete lokola Doegi, moto ya Edomi, azalaki wana, akokaki kozanga te koyebisa Saulo. Boye ezali mpo na ngai nde bato nyonso ya libota ya botata na yo bakufi!
23 Abide thou with me, fear not; for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life; for with me thou shalt be in safeguard.'
Sik’oyo, vanda awa elongo na ngai, kobanga te. Pamba te moto oyo azali koluka bomoi na yo azali koluka mpe bomoi na ngai. Okobatelama malamu epai na ngai. »
