2 Samuel 15
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Na tango wana, Abisalomi azwaki shar, bampunda mpe basoda tuku mitano oyo bazalaki kotambola liboso na ye lokola bakengeli na ye.
2 And Absalom used to rise up early, and stand beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said: 'Of what city art thou?' And he said: 'Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.'
Abisalomi azalaki kolamuka na tongo makasi mpe azalaki kokende kotelema pembeni ya nzela oyo ekenda na ekotelo ya engumba. Bongo, tango nyonso moto azalaki koleka mpo na kokende epai ya mokonzi mpo ete akatela ye likambo, ye Abisalomi azalaki kobenga ye mpe kotuna ye: — Ozali moto ya engumba nini? Soki moto yango azongisi: — Mosali na yo azali moto ya moko kati na bikolo ya Isalaele.
3 And Absalom said unto him: 'See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.'
Abisalomi azalaki koloba na ye: — Tala, likambo na yo ezali malamu mpe sembo; kasi ezali na moto moko te oyo akoki koyoka yo epai ya mokonzi.
4 Absalom said moreover: 'Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!'
Abisalomi azalaki kobakisa: — Ah! Soki nazalaki mosambisi kati na mokili oyo, moto nyonso oyo azali na likambo alingaki koya epai na ngai, mpe nalingaki kolongisa ye na likambo yango!
5 And it was so, that when any man came nigh to prostrate himself before him, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
Mpe tango nyonso moto azalaki kopusana mpo na kogumbama liboso na ye Abisalomi, Abisalomi azalaki kopesa loboko, koyamba mpe kopesa ye beze.
6 And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Azalaki kosala bongo epai ya bato nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kokende epai ya mokonzi mpo ete akata likambo na bango, mpe ezalaki bongo nde Abisalomi azalaki komikotisa na mayele kati na mitema ya bato ya Isalaele.
7 And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king: 'I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron.
Sima na mibu minei, Abisalomi alobaki na mokonzi: — Pesa ngai nzela mpo ete nakende na Ebron mpo na kokokisa ndayi oyo nalapaki epai na Yawe,
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Aram, saying: If the LORD shall indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.'
pamba te tango mosali na yo azalaki kovanda na Geshuri kati na Siri, nalapaki ndayi oyo: « Soki Yawe azongisi ngai na Yelusalemi, nakogumbamela Ye. »
9 And the king said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Kende na kimia. Boye akendeki na Ebron.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'As soon as ye hear the sound of the horn, then ye shall say: Absalom is king in Hebron.'
Mpe longwa kuna, Abisalomi atindaki bantoma kati na bikolo nyonso ya Isalaele mpo na koloba: « Tango kaka bokoyoka lokito ya kelelo, boloba: ‹ Abisalomi akomi mokonzi kati na Ebron. › »
11 And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they knew not any thing.
Mibali nkama mibale babengisamaki wuta na Yelusalemi mpe bakendeki elongo na Abisalomi. Bakendeki na boboto mpe bayebaki ata likambo moko te.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Wana Abisalomi azalaki kobonza mbeka, abengisaki Ayitofeli, moto ya Gilo, mopesi toli ya Davidi, wuta na engumba na ye ya Gilo. Boye, likita ya batomboki ekomaki makasi; mpe lisanga ya Abisalomi ekomaki na bato ebele.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying: 'The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.'
Ntoma moko ayaki koyebisa Davidi: — Mitema ya bato ya Isalaele esangani elongo na Abisalomi.
14 And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem: 'Arise, and let us flee; or else none of us shall escape from Absalom; make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.'
Davidi alobaki na bakalaka na ye nyonso oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi: — Boya! Tosengeli kokima, soki te moko te kati na biso akobika liboso ya Abisalomi. Tosengeli kobima na lombangu, soki te akoya na lombangu kokanga biso, kobebisa biso mpe koboma engumba na mopanga.
15 And the king's servants said unto the king: 'Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.'
Bakalaka ya mokonzi bazongiselaki Davidi: — Basali na yo bazali ya kobongama mpo na kosala makambo nyonso oyo mokonzi, nkolo na biso, akopona.
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, that were concubines, to keep the house.
Mokonzi akendeki na makolo elongo na libota na ye mobimba oyo ezalaki kolanda ye; kasi atikaki bamakangu zomi mpo na kobatela ndako na ye.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth-merhak.
Boye mokonzi akendeki na makolo elongo na bato na ye nyonso oyo bazalaki kolanda ye mpe batelemaki pene ya ndako ya suka ya engumba.
18 And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men that came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Basoda na ye nyonso bazalaki kotambola na bapembeni na ye elongo na bato nyonso ya Kereti mpe ya Peleti. Mpe bato nyonso ya Gati, nkama motoba, oyo batambolaki elongo na ye longwa na Gati, bazalaki kotambola liboso ya mokonzi.
19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite: 'Wherefore goest thou also with us? return, and abide with the king; for thou art a foreigner, and also an exile from thine own place.
Mokonzi alobaki na Itayi, moto ya Gati: — Mpo na nini yo mpe olingi koya elongo na biso? Zonga mpe vanda elongo na Abisalomi, mokonzi ya sika! Ozali mopaya, otikaki mboka na yo mpo na koya kokima awa.
20 Whereas thou camest but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go whither I may? return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee in kindness and truth.'
Oyaki mpe kaka lobi oyo ewuti koleka, bongo ndenge nini, lelo, namema yo elongo na biso wana nayebi kutu te epai nini nazali kokende? Zonga mpe zwa bato ya mboka na yo! Tika ete bolamu mpe boyengebene ya Yawe ezala elongo na yo!
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will thy servant be.'
Itayi azongiselaki mokonzi: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mosali na yo akozala bipai nyonso oyo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akozala, ezala mpo na bomoi to mpo na kufa.
22 And David said to Ittai: 'Go and pass over.' And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
Davidi alobaki na Itayi: — Malamu! Leka liboso mpe tambola! Boye Itayi, moto ya Gati, atambolaki liboso elongo na basoda nyonso mpe mabota oyo ezalaki elongo na ye.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, as all the people passed over; and as the king passed over the brook Kidron, all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.
Tango bato nyonso bazalaki koleka, mboka mobimba ezalaki kolela makasi. Mokonzi akatisaki lubwaku ya Sedron, mpe bato nyonso bakendeki na nzela oyo ekenda na esobe.
24 And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God — but Abiathar went up — until all the people had done passing out of the city.
Tsadoki mpe azalaki wana elongo na Balevi oyo bazalaki elongo na ye mpe bamemaki Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Nzambe. Bakitisaki Sanduku ya Nzambe, mpe Abiatari abonzaki mbeka kino tango bato nyonso basilisaki kobima na engumba.
25 And the king said unto Zadok: 'Carry back the ark of God into the city; if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring me back, and show me both it, and His habitation;
Mokonzi alobaki na Tsadoki: — Zongisa Sanduku ya Nzambe kati na engumba. Soki nazwi ngolu na miso ya Yawe, akozongisa ngai mpe akopesa ngai nzela ya komona lisusu Sanduku yango mpe ndako na yango.
26 but if He say thus: I have no delight in thee; behold, here am I, let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.'
Kasi soki Nzambe alobi: « Nasepeli na yo te, » wana tika ete asala epai na ngai makambo oyo amoni ete ezali malamu, pamba te nazali ya kobongama.
27 The king said also unto Zadok the priest: 'Seest thou? return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Mokonzi alobaki lisusu epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki: — Ozali momoni makambo te? Zonga na kimia na engumba elongo na Ayimaatsi, mwana na yo ya mobali, mpe Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Abiatari. Yo mpe Abiatari, bozwa mpe bomema bana na bino mibale ya mibali.
28 See, I will tarry in the plains of the wilderness, until there come word from you to announce unto me.'
Nakozela na bitando ya esobe kino nakoyoka liloba kowuta epai na bino.
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem; and they abode there.
Boye Tsadoki mpe Abiatari bazongisaki Sanduku ya Nzambe, na Yelusalemi, mpe batikalaki kuna.
30 And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot; and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
Kasi Davidi azalaki komata ngomba ya banzete ya olive na kolela, moto na ye ya kozipama mpe makolo ngulu. Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bazipaki bango mpe mito na bango mpe bazalaki kolela wana bazalaki komata.
31 And one told David, saying: 'Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.' And David said: 'O LORD, I pray Thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.'
Bayaki koyebisa Davidi ete Ayitofeli azali kati na bato oyo basalaki likita elongo na Abisalomi. Boye Davidi asambelaki: « Eh Yawe, sala ete batoli ya Ayitofeli ezanga tina. »
32 And it came to pass, that when David was come to the top of the ascent, where God was wont to be worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head.
Tango Davidi akomaki na songe ya ngomba epai wapi bato bazalaki na momesano ya kokende kogumbamela Nzambe, Ushayi, moto ya Ariki, mopesi toli ya Davidi, azalaki kuna mpo na kokutana na ye, na nzambala na ye epasuka mpe moto na ye etonda na putulu.
33 And David said unto him: 'If thou passest on with me, then thou wilt be a burden unto Me;
Davidi alobaki na ye: — Soki okeyi elongo na ngai, okozala mokumba mpo na ngai.
34 but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom: I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant; then wilt thou defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Kasi soki ozongi na engumba mpe olobi na Abisalomi: « Nakozala mosali na yo, oh mokonzi! Kala, nazalaki mosali ya tata na yo, kasi sik’oyo, nakozala mosali na yo, » wana okosunga ngai na kobebisa toli ya Ayitofeli.
35 And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, that what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
Lokola Banganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe Abiatari bakozala kuna elongo na yo, okoyebisa bango makambo nyonso oyo okoyoka na ndako ya mokonzi.
36 Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's son, and Jonathan Abiathar's son; and by them ye shall send unto me every thing that ye shall hear.'
Bana na bango ya mibali mibale, Ayimaatsi, mwana mobali ya Tsadoki, mpe Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Abiatari, bazali mpe kuna elongo na bango. Okotinda bango mpo ete baya koyebisa ngai makambo nyonso oyo okoyoka.
37 So Hushai David's friend came into the city; and Absalom was at the point of coming into Jerusalem.
Boye Ushayi, moninga ya Davidi, azongaki na engumba, kaka na tango oyo Abisalomi mpe akotaki kati na Yelusalemi.
