1 Samuel 25
1 And Samuel died; and all the Israelites were gathered together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
Samuele akufaki, mpe Isalaele mobimba esanganaki mpo na kosala matanga na tina na ye; bongo bakundaki ye na mboka na ye, Rama. Davidi akendeki na esobe ya Parani.
2 And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
Na mboka Maoni, ezalaki na moto moko ya bozwi oyo bomengo na ye ezalaki kati na mboka Karimeli. Azalaki na bameme ya mibali nkoto misato mpe bantaba ya basi nkoto moko. Na eleko oyo, azalaki kati na Karimeli epai wapi azalaki kokata bameme na ye bapwale.
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and she was a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.
Kombo na ye ezalaki « Nabali, » mpe kombo ya mwasi na ye ezalaki « Abigayili. » Abigayili azalaki mwasi ya mayele mpe ya kitoko; kasi mobali na ye, moto ya etuka Kalebi, azalaki motema makasi mpe moto mabe.
4 And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal did shear his sheep.
Wana Davidi azali kati na esobe, ayokaki ete Nabali azali kokata bameme na ye bapwale.
5 And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:
Davidi atindaki bilenge mibali zomi, alobaki na bango: « Bokende na Karimeli epai ya Nabali mpe bopesa ye mbote na kombo na ngai.
6 And thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be both to thee, and peace be to thine house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.
Boyebisa ye: ‹ Tika ete bomoi molayi epesamela yo! Tika ete kimia ezala na yo, na libota na yo mpe na nyonso oyo ezali ya yo!
7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.
Nayoki ete bazali kokata bameme bapwale epai na yo. Nzokande, tango nyonso oyo babateli bibwele na yo bazalaki elongo na biso na Karimeli, tosalaki bango mabe ata moko te, mpe babungisaki ata eloko moko te.
8 Ask thy young men, and they will shew thee. Wherefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes: for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thine hand unto thy servants, and to thy son David.
Tuna basali na yo, bakoyebisa yo. Boye, tika ete bilenge mibali na ngai bazwa ngolu na miso na yo, lokola tokomi epai na yo na mokolo ya feti! Nabondeli yo, pesa na basali na yo mpe na Davidi, mwana na yo ya mobali, eloko nyonso oyo okokoka kozwa mpo na bango. › »
9 And when David's young men came, they spake to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
Tango bilenge mibali ya Davidi bakomaki epai ya Nabali, bayebisaki ye makambo oyo nyonso na kombo ya Davidi, mpe bazelaki.
10 And Nabal answered David's servants, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there be many servants now a days that break away every man from his master.
Kasi Nabali azongiselaki basali ya Davidi: « Davidi azali nani? Mwana mobali ya Izayi azali nani? Mikolo oyo, basali ebele bazali kokima bankolo na bango.
11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men, whom I know not whence they be?
Mpo na nini nakamata mapa na ngai, mayi na ngai mpe mosuni, oyo nabongisi mpo na bato na ngai, oyo bakataka bapwale, mpo na kopesa yango epai ya bato oyo nayebi kutu epai bawuti te? »
12 So David's young men turned their way, and went again, and came and told him all those sayings.
Bilenge mibali ya Davidi babalukaki mpe bazongaki. Tango bakomaki, bayebisaki Davidi makambo oyo Nabali alobaki.
13 And David said unto his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the stuff.
Davidi alobaki na basoda na ye: « Tika ete moko na moko atia mopanga na ye na loketo. » Boye, batiaki mipanga na bango na loketo, mpe Davidi atiaki mpe oyo ya ye. Bato pene nkama minei bakendeki elongo na Davidi, mpe bato nkama mibale batikalaki mpo na kobatela biloko.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed on them.
Moko kati na basali ya Nabali alobaki na Abigayili, mwasi ya Nabali: « Davidi atindaki bantoma wuta na esobe mpo na kopambola nkolo na biso, kasi ye atombokelaki bango.
15 But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we were conversant with them, when we were in the fields:
Nzokande bato yango basalelaki biso penza bolamu, basalaki biso mabe ata moko te, mpe, tango nyonso totambolaki elongo na bango na zamba, tobungisaki ata eloko moko te.
16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
Butu mpe moyi, tango nyonso tozalaki koleisa bibwele na biso pene na bango, bazalaki lokola mir zingazinga na biso.
17 Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.
Sik’oyo, yeba kokanisa mpo na yango mpe tala eloko nini osengeli kosala, pamba te mokano ya koboma nkolo na biso mpe libota na ye mobimba esili kozwama. Nkolo na biso azali moto mabe koleka, boye moto moko te akoki kosolola na ye. »
18 Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and an hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.
Abigayili asalaki na lombangu, azwaki mapa nkama mibale, bambeki mibale ya vino, bameme batumba mitano, bakilo tuku motoba na mibale na bagrame nkama mitano ya ble bakalinga, maboke nkama moko ya bambuma ya vino ekawuka mpe bagato nkama mibale basala na bambuma ya figi; mpe atiaki yango na likolo ya ba-ane.
19 And she said unto her servants, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she told not her husband Nabal.
Bongo alobaki na basali na ye: « Bokende liboso na ngai, nazali kolanda bino. » Kasi ayebisaki mobali na ye, Nabali, te.
20 And it was so, as she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert of the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them.
Wana Abigayili azalaki na likolo ya ane, azalaki kokita sima na ngomba. Na tango yango kaka, Davidi mpe bato na ye bazalaki mpe kokita na ngambo epai wapi Abigayili azalaki, mpe akutanaki na bango.
21 Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good.
Davidi awutaki komilobela: « Ezalaki na pamba nde nabatelaki biloko nyonso ya moto oyo kati na esobe mpo ete eloko moko te ebunga kati na biloko na ye nyonso! Azongiseli ngai mabe na esika ya bolamu oyo nasalelaki ye!
22 So and more also do Elohim unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai Davidi etumbu ya makasi soki, kino lobi na tongo, natiki na bomoi mobali moko kati na bato nyonso oyo bazali ya Nabali! »
23 And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground,
Tango Abigayili amonaki Davidi, akitaki na lombangu wuta na ane na ye mpe agumbamaki na liboso ya Davidi, elongi kino na mabele.
24 And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, mymaster, upon me let this iniquity be: and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.
Akweyaki na makolo ya Davidi mpe alobaki: — Oh nkolo na ngai, tika ete mbeba ezala kaka na moto na ngai! Nabondeli yo, tika ete mwasi mosali na yo asolola na yo! Yoka makambo oyo mwasi mosali na yo alingi koyebisa yo.
25 Let not mymaster, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, even Nabal: for as his name is, so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him: but I thine handmaid saw not the young men of mymaster, whom thou didst send.
Tika ete nkolo na ngai atala te Nabali, mobali oyo ya mabe, pamba te azali penza ndenge kombo na ye ezali; kombo na ye ezali Nabali, mpe elingi koloba: moto ya liboma. Mpe liboma ezali penza kotambola elongo na ye. Ngai mwasi mosali na yo, namonaki te bilenge mibali oyo mokonzi na ngai atindaki.
26 Now therefore, mymaster, as YHWH liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing YHWH hath withholden thee from coming to shed blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to mymaster, be as Nabal.
Sik’oyo, nkolo na ngai, na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, lokola Yawe apesi yo nzela te ya koboma mpe ya kozongisa yo moko mabe na mabe, tika ete banguna na yo mpe bato nyonso oyo bazali makasi ya kosala mabe epai ya nkolo na ngai bazala lokola Nabali.
27 And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto mymaster, let it even be given unto the young men that follow mymaster.
Mpe tika ete bakado oyo mwasi mosali na yo amemeli nkolo na ngai epesamela mibali oyo bazali kolanda yo.
28 I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for YHWH will certainly make mymaster a sure house; because mymaster fighteth the battles of YHWH, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days.
Nabondeli yo, limbisa mabe ya mwasi mosali na yo. Yawe akosala penza ete libota ya nkolo na ngai ewumela tango nyonso na bokonzi, pamba te obundaka bitumba ya Yawe. Tika ete, tango nyonso okozala na bomoi, mabe ata moko te emonana kati na yo.
29 Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of mymaster shall be bound in the bundle of life with YHWH thy Elohim; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
Ezala soki moto moko atelemi mpo na kolanda yo to mpo na koboma yo, Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akobatela malamu bomoi ya nkolo na ngai kati na bato ya bomoi, kasi akobwaka banguna na yo mosika lokola na ebambelo mabanga.
30 And it shall come to pass, when YHWH shall have done to mymaster according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
Tango Yawe akokokisela nkolo na ngai bolamu nyonso oyo alakaki yo mpe akokomisa yo mokambi ya Isalaele,
31 That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto mymaster, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that mymaster hath avenged himself: but when YHWH shall have dealt well with mymaster, then remember thine handmaid.
nkolo na ngai akoyoka mawa te na motema na ye mpe akomitungisa te na makanisi mpo ete asopaki makila na pamba mpe azongisaki ye moko mabe na mabe. Bongo tango Yawe akosalela nkolo na ngai bolamu, okokanisela mwasi mosali na yo.
32 And David said to Abigail, Blessed be YHWH Elohim of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:
Davidi azongiselaki Abigayili: — Tika ete apambolama, Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo atindi yo kokutana na ngai na mokolo ya lelo!
33 And blessed be thy advice, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
Tika ete mayele na yo epambolama! Tika ete yo moko mpe opambolama mpo ete opesi ngai nzela te ya koboma mpe ya kozongisa ngai moko mabe na mabe!
34 For in very deed, as YHWH Elohim of Israel liveth, which hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
Nzokande, na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo apesi ngai nzela te ya kosala yo mabe, soki oyaki noki te mpo na kokutana na ngai, mobali moko te kati na ndako ya Nabali alingaki kotikala na bomoi kino lobi na tongo.
35 So David received of her hand that which she had brought him, and said unto her, Go up in peace to thine house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.
Boye Davidi azwaki bakado oyo Abigayili amemelaki ye mpe alobaki: — Zonga epai na yo na kimia. Nayoki maloba na yo mpe nakosala ndenge osengi ngai.
36 And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken: wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
Tango Abigayili akomaki epai ya Nabali, akutaki Nabali azali kosala feti kati na ndako na ye ndenge penza mokonzi asalaka yango. Azalaki na loyenge mpe alangwaki makasi. Boye Abigayili ayebisaki ye eloko te kino na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki.
37 But it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, and his wife had told him these things, that his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
Kasi na tongo, lokola milangwa na ye esilaki, mwasi na ye ayebisaki ye makambo nyonso oyo elekaki. Nabali ayokaki pasi na motema mpe akangamaki lokola libanga.
38 And it came to pass about ten days after, that YHWH smote Nabal, that he died.
Sima na mikolo zomi, Yawe abetaki Nabali, mpe akufaki.
39 And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be YHWH, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil: for YHWH hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his own head, And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.
Tango Davidi ayokaki ete Nabali akufi, alobaki: « Tika ete apambolama, Yawe oyo akoti likambo na ngai na ndenge Nabali atiolaki ngai! Apesi te na mosali na Ye nzela ya kosala mabe, kasi akweyisi mabe ya Nabali na moto na ye moko! » Bongo Davidi atindaki maloba epai ya Abigayili mpo na kosenga ye ete akoma mwasi na ye.
40 And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake unto her, saying, David sent us unto thee to take thee to him to wife.
Basali ya Davidi bakendeki na Karimeli mpe balobaki na Abigayili: — Davidi atindi biso epai na yo mpo ete toya kozwa yo mpo okoma mwasi na ye.
41 And she arose, and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thine handmaid be a servant to wash the feet of the servants of mymaster.
Abigayili agumbamaki elongi kino na mabele mpe alobaki: — Mwasi mosali na yo, ye oyo! Abongami mpo na kosalela bino mpe mpo na kosukola makolo ya basali ya nkolo na ngai.
42 And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that went after her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Abigayili amataki na ane na lombangu mpe akendeki nzela moko na bantoma ya Davidi elongo na basali na ye mitano ya basi. Mpe akomaki mwasi ya Davidi.
43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they were also both of them his wives.
Davidi abalaki lisusu Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli; mpe bango mibale bakomaki basi na ye.
44 But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, which was of Gallim.
Kasi Saulo abalisaki Mikali, mwana na ye ya mwasi, oyo azalaki mwasi ya Davidi, epai ya Paliti, mwana mobali ya Laishi, moto na Galimi.
