1 Samuel 29

1 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which [is] in Jezreel.

Bato ya Filisitia basangisaki mampinga na bango ya basoda na Afeki, mpe Isalaele atongaki molako pene ya etima ya mayi oyo ezali na Jizireyeli.

2 And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rereward with Achish.

Wana bakambi ya bato ya Filisitia batambolaki liboso ya mampinga na bango ya bankama mpe ya bankoto ya basoda, Davidi mpe bato na ye bazalaki kotambola na sima elongo na mokonzi Akishi.

3 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What [do] these Hebrews [here]? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, [Is] not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which hath been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell [unto me] unto this day?

Bakonzi ya basoda ya Filisitia batunaki: — Ba-Ebre oyo bazali kosala nini awa? Akishi alobaki na bango: — Ezali Davidi, mosali ya Saulo, mokonzi ya Isalaele. Azali elongo na ngai wuta mibu mpe mikolo; mpe natikali nanu kokanga ye ata na mbeba moko te.

4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow return, that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? [should it] not [be] with the heads of these men?

Kasi bakonzi ya basoda ya Filisitia batombokelaki Akishi mpe balobaki: — Zongisa moto oyo! Tika ete azonga na esika oyo otiaki ye; asengeli te kokende elongo na biso na bitumba, noki te akobalukela biso na tango ya bitumba. Mpe ndenge nini moto oyo akoki kosepelisa lisusu mokonzi na ye, soki na komema mito ya bato na biso moko te?

5 [Is] not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

Ezali Davidi wana te oyo na tina na ye babandaki koyemba mpe kobina: « Saulo abomaki bankoto, mpe Davidi abomaki bankoto zomi. »

6 Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, [as] the LORD liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host [is] good in my sight: for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this day: nevertheless the lords favour thee not.

Boye Akishi abengaki Davidi mpe alobaki na ye: — Na Kombo na Yawe, ozali moto ya sembo. Nasepelaka komona yo kokende mpe kozonga elongo na ngai kati na mampinga. Wuta mokolo oyo oyaki epai na ngai kino lelo, natikali nanu kokanga yo na mbeba ata moko te; kasi bakambi ya bato ya Filisitia bazali kondima yo te.

7 Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines.

Boye, zonga mpe kende na kimia; kosala eloko moko te oyo ekosepelisa te bakambi ya bato ya Filisitia.

8 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee unto this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?

Davidi atunaki Akishi: — Nasali nini? Eloko nini ya mabe oyo omoni epai ya mosali na yo wuta mokolo oyo nayaki epai na yo kino lelo? Mpo na nini nakoki te kokende kobundisa banguna ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai?

9 And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou [art] good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.

Akishi azongiselaki Davidi: — Nayebi ete osepelisaka ngai lokola Anjelu na Nzambe, Kasi bakonzi ya basoda ya Filisitia balobi: « Asengeli te kokende elongo na biso na bitumba. »

10 Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with thy master’s servants that are come with thee: and as soon as ye be up early in the morning, and have light, depart.

Boye, lamuka na tongo makasi, yo mpe basoda ya nkolo na yo, oyo bayaki elongo na yo. Bolamuka na tongo makasi mpe bokende wana moyi ekobima.

11 So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

Boye, Davidi mpe bato na ye batelemaki na tongo makasi mpo na kozonga na mokili ya bato ya Filisitia; mpe bato ya Filisitia bakendeki na Jizireyeli.
