< Kings I 31 >
1 And the Philistines fought with Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and they fall down wounded in the mountain in Gelbue.
Bato ya Filisitia bazalaki kobundisa Isalaele, kasi bato ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango mpe mingi kati na bango bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
2 And the Philistines press closely on Saul and his sons, and the Philistines strike Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisa son of Saul.
Bato ya Filisitia balandaki Saulo elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, kasi babomaki bana na ye ya mibali: Jonatan, Abinadabi mpe Maliki-Shuwa.
3 And the battle prevails against Saul, and the shooters with arrows, even the archers find him, and he was wounded under the ribs.
Bongo bitumba ekomaki mpo na koboma Saulo. Tango basoda oyo babundaka na matolotolo bamonaki Saulo, ye Saulo alengaki na somo.
4 And Saul said to his armor-bearer, Draw your sword and pierce me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and pierce me through, and mock me. But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly: so Saul took his sword and fell upon it.
Saulo alobaki na soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye: « Bimisa mopanga na yo na ebombelo na yango mpe boma ngai, noki te bato oyo bakatama ngenga te bakoya kotuba ngai mpe kosakanela ngai. » Kasi soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye aboyaki, pamba te azalaki kobanga. Bongo Saulo akamataki mopanga na ye mpe amibwakaki na likolo na yango.
5 And his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he fell also himself upon his sword, and died with him.
Tango soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye amonaki ete Saulo akufi, ye mpe amibwakaki na likolo ya mopanga na ye mpe akufaki elongo na Saulo.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor-bearer, in that day together.
Ezalaki bongo nde Saulo, bana na ye misato ya mibali, soda oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye mpe basoda na ye nyonso bakufaki bango nyonso elongo mokolo wana.
7 And the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead; and they leave their cities and flee: and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
Tango bato ya Isalaele, oyo bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya lubwaku mpe ba-oyo bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani bamonaki ete mampinga ya Isalaele esili kopanzana, mpe ete Saulo mpe bana na ye ya mibali bakufi, basundolaki bingumba na bango mpe bakimaki. Bato ya Filisitia bayaki kovanda na bingumba yango.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow that the Philistines come to strip the dead, and they find Saul and his three sons fallen on the mountains of Gelbue.
Na mokolo oyo elendaki, tango bato ya Filisitia bayaki mpo na kolongola biloko oyo ezalaki na banzoto ya bibembe, bamonaki Saulo mpe bana na ye misato ya mibali oyo bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
9 And they turned him, and stripped off his armor, and sent it into the land of the Philistines, sending round glad tidings to their idols and to the people.
Bakataki moto ya Saulo, bazwaki bibundeli na ye mpe batindaki bato na mokili mobimba ya bato ya Filisitia mpo ete bapanza sango malamu oyo ya elonga kati na tempelo ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe kati na bato na bango.
10 And they set up his armor at the temple of Astarte, and they fastened his body on the wall of Baethsam.
Batiaki bibundeli ya Saulo kati na tempelo ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko, Asitarite, mpe badiembikaki nzoto na ye na mir ya Beti-Sheani.
11 And the inhabitants of Jabis Galaad hear what the Philistines did to Saul.
Tango bavandi ya Yabeshi kati na Galadi bayokaki makambo oyo bato ya Filisitia basalaki Saulo,
12 And they rose up, [even] every man of might, and marched all night, and took the body of Saul and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall of Baethsam; and they bring them to Jabis, and burn them there.
bilombe na bango nyonso batelemaki mpe batambolaki butu mobimba mpo na kokoma na Beti-Sheani. Bongo sima na bango kokitisa bibembe ya Saulo mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali wuta na mir, bazongaki na Yabeshi epai wapi batumbaki yango.
13 And they take their bones, and bury them in the field that is in Jabis, and fast seven days.
Bazwaki mikuwa na bango, bakundaki yango na Yabeshi, na se ya nzete ya tamarisi, mpe bakilaki bilei mikolo sambo.
