1 Kings 1
1 Now king David was old, stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not become warm.
Tango mokonzi Davidi akomaki mobange makasi, azalaki lisusu koyoka moto te na nzoto, ezala bafiniki ye bilamba ebele.
2 Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let them seek out for my lord the king a young virgin, and let her stand before the king, and let her be an attendant on him; and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may become warm.
Boye, basali ya Davidi balobaki na ye: « Tika ete tolukela mokonzi elenge mwasi moko oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te mpo ete azala pene ya mokonzi, abatela ye mpe alala mbeto moko na ye; mpe mpo ete mokonzi, nkolo na biso, ayoka lisusu moto na nzoto! »
3 So they sought for a fair maiden throughout all the territory of Israel; and they found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
Boye, balukaki kati na Isalaele mobimba elenge mwasi moko ya kitoko; bamonaki Abishagi, moto ya mboka Sunami, mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi.
4 And the maiden was exceedingly fair; and she became an attendant on the king, and ministered to him; but the king knew her not.
Elenge mwasi yango azalaki kitoko mingi, akomaki kobatela mokonzi mpe kosalela ye; kasi mokonzi atikalaki te kosangisa na ye nzoto.
5 And Adoniyah the son of Chaggith exalted himself, saying, I shall be king: and he procured himself a chariot and horsemen, and fifty men who ran before him.
Nzokande, Adoniya, mwana mobali oyo Agite abotelaki Davidi, amilobelaki na motema na ye: « Ngai nde nakozala mokonzi! » Mpo na yango, asombaki bashar, bampunda; mpe basoda tuku mitano mpo ete batambola liboso na ye lokola bakengeli.
6 And his father had never grieved him in all his life by saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also was of a very goodly form; and his mother had born him after Abshalom.
Nzokande, tata na ye atikalaki kopamela ye ata mokolo moko te mpe kotuna ye: « Mpo na nini ozali kosala boye? » Adoniya azalaki penza kitoko mpe abotamaki sima na Abisalomi.
7 And he had conferences with Joab the son of Zeruyah, and with Ebyathar the priest: and they, following Adoniyah, helped him.
Adoniya asololaki na Joabi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, mpe na Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; mpe bango bandimaki kosunga ye.
8 But Zadok the priest, and Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', and Nathan the prophet, and Shim'i, and Re'i, and the mighty men that belonged to David, were not with Adoniyah.
Kasi Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada; mosakoli Natan, Shimei, Reyi mpe bakengeli ya Davidi baboyaki kosangana na Adoniya.
9 And Adoniyah slaughtered sheep and oxen and fatted cattle by the stone Zocheleth, which is by 'En-rogel; and he invited all his brothers the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants;
Adoniya abonzaki na libanga ya Zoeleti bambeka ebele ya bameme, ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta, pembeni ya Eyini-Rogeli; abengisaki bandeko na ye nyonso ya mibali, bana mibali ya mokonzi, mpe bato nyonso ya Yuda oyo bazalaki kosala epai ya mokonzi.
10 But Nathan the prophet, and Benayahu, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.
Kasi abengisaki te mosakoli Natan, Benaya, bakengeli ya mokonzi mpe Salomo, ndeko na ye ya mobali.
11 And Nathan spoke unto Bath-sheba' the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adoniyah the son of Chaggith is become king, and [that] David our lord knoweth it not?
Natan atunaki Batisheba, mama ya Salomo: — Boni, oyoki te ete Adoniya, mwana mobali ya Agite, akomi mokonzi; kasi mokonzi Davidi ayebi te?
12 And now come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thy own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.
Sik’oyo, tika ete napesa yo toli oyo ekobikisa bomoi na yo mpe bomoi ya Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali.
13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thy hand-maid, saying, Assuredly, Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and only he shall sit upon my throne? why then is Adoniyah become king?
Kota epai ya mokonzi Davidi mpe loba na ye: « Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, olapaki ndayi te liboso na ngai mwasi mowumbu na yo: ‹ Solo, Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi? › Boye mpo na nini Adoniya akomi mokonzi? »
14 And, lo, while thou shalt be yet speaking there with the king, I myself will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.
Wana okozala nanu koloba na mokonzi, ngai mpe nakokota mpe nakobeta sete na maloba na yo.
15 And Bath-sheba' went in unto the king into the chamber, and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering unto the king.
Batisheba akendeki kotala mokonzi kati na shambre. Mokonzi akomaki mobange makasi, mpe Abishagi, moto ya Sunami, azalaki kobatela ye.
16 And Bath-sheba' bowed, and prostrated herself unto the king: and the king said, What wouldst thou?
Batisheba agumbamaki mpe afukamaki liboso ya mokonzi; mpe mokonzi atunaki ye: — Boni, olingi nini?
17 And she said unto him, My lord, thou thyself didst swear by the Lord thy God unto thy hand-maid, Assuredly, Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and only he shall sit upon my throne.
Batisheba azongisaki: — Nkolo na ngai, yo moko olapaki ndayi, liboso na ngai mwasi mowumbu na yo, na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na koloba: « Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai na bokonzi mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi. »
18 And now, behold, Adoniyah is become king; and now, my lord, O king, thou knowest it not:
Kasi sik’oyo Adoniya akomi mokonzi; mpe yo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, oyebi yango te!
19 And he hath slaughtered oxen and fatted cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and Ebyathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the army; but Solomon thy servant hath he not invited.
Abonzi bambeka ebele ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta, ya bameme; mpe abengisi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi, Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; Joabi, mokonzi ya mampinga ya Isalaele; kasi abengisi te Salomo, mowumbu na yo.
20 And as for thee, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, to tell them, who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, miso ya bato nyonso ya Isalaele ezali kotalela yo mpo na koyeba soki nani akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi sima na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai.
21 Otherwise it would come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon may be counted offenders.
Soki te, tango mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akolala elongo na bakoko na ye, bakozwa ngai elongo na Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, lokola babomi.
22 And, lo, while she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.
Wana Batisheba azalaki nanu koloba na mokonzi, mosakoli Natan akomaki.
23 And they told the king, saying, Behold, here is Nathan the prophet: and when he was come in before the king, he prostrated himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Bayebisaki mokonzi: — Tala mosakoli Natan! Mosakoli Natan akendeki liboso ya mokonzi, agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi, elongi kino na se.
24 And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou then said, Adoniyah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?
Bongo, Natan alobaki: — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai; boni, olobaki ete Adoniya akokitana na yo mpe akovanda na kiti na yo ya bokonzi?
25 For he is gone down this day, and hath slaughtered oxen and fatted cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath invited all the king's sons, and the captains of the army, and Ebyathar the priest: and, behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and they say, Long live king Adoniyah.
Na mokolo ya lelo, akei kobonza bambeka ebele ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta mpe ya bameme; abengisi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi, bakonzi ya mampinga mpe Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; bazali kolia mpe komela elongo na ye mpe bazali koloba: « Tika ete mokonzi Adoniya awumela na bomoi! »
26 But as for me, me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', and thy servant Solomon, hath he not invited.
Kasi abengisi te ngai, mosali na yo; Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, mpe Salomo, mosali na yo.
27 Can it be that this hath been done by order of my lord the king, and thou hast not informed thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?
Boni, ezali solo na mitindo ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, nde likambo oyo esalemi? Nzokande, oyebisaki te na mosali na yo nani akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya nkolo na ngai sima na yo?
28 Then answered king David, and said, Call me Bath-sheba'; and she came into the king's presence, and stood before the king.
Mokonzi Davidi alobaki: — Bobengela ngai Batisheba. Batisheba ayaki pene ya mokonzi mpe atelemaki liboso na ye.
29 And the king swore and said, As the Lord liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress,
Mokonzi alapaki ndayi na maloba oyo: — Na Kombo na Yawe oyo akangolaki ngai na mikakatano nyonso,
30 Even as I have sworn unto thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and only he shall sit upon my throne in my stead: even so will I certainly do this day.
nakokokisa solo, na mokolo ya lelo, ndayi oyo nalapaki epai na yo na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi.
31 Then did Bath-sheba' bow herself with her face to the earth, and prostrate herself unto the king; and she said, May my lord, the king David, live for ever!
Batisheba akitisaki elongi na ye kino na se mpe agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi; alobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na ngai, awumela seko na bomoi!
32 And king David said, Call unto me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benayahu the son of Yehoyada'. And they came before the king.
Mokonzi Davidi alobaki: — Bobenga Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan mpe Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada. Tango bayaki liboso ya mokonzi,
33 And the king said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon my own mule, and conduct him down to Gichon:
mokonzi alobaki na bango: — Bozwa elongo na bino basali ya mokonzi na bino mpe bomatisa Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, na likolo ya mile na ngai ya mwasi. Bokende elongo na ye na etima ya Giyoni!
34 And let Zadok the priest with Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel; and blow ye with the cornet, and say, Long live king Solomon.
Kuna, Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe mosakoli Natan bakopakola ye mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi ya Isalaele. Bokobeta kelelo mpe boganga: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo awumela seko na bomoi! »
35 Then shall ye go up after him, and he shall come and sit upon my throne; and he shall be king in my stead: and him have I ordained to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.
Sima, bokozonga elongo na ye, mpe akoya kovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi. Ye nde akokoma mokonzi na esika na ngai. Nakomisi ye mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda.
36 And Benayahu the son of Yehoyada' answered the king, and said, Amen: May thus say the Eternal the God of my lord the king.
Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, azongiselaki mokonzi: — Amen! Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akokisa maloba oyo.
37 As the Eternal hath been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon, and may he make his throne greater than the throne of my lord the king David.
Ndenge Yawe azalaki elongo na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, tika ete azala mpe elongo na Salomo mpe akomisa kiti na ye ya bokonzi monene koleka oyo ya mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na ngai!
38 Thereupon Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', and the Kerethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David's mule, and conducted him to Gichon.
Boye, Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, bato ya Kereti mpe bato ya Peleti bakendeki, bamatisaki Salomo na likolo ya mile ya mokonzi Davidi mpe bamemaki ye na etima ya Giyoni.
39 And Zadok the priest took the horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew with the cornet; and all the people said, Long live king Solomon.
Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki azwaki liseke ya mafuta, kati na ndako ya kapo ya bule, mpe apakolaki Salomo mafuta. Bongo, babetaki kelelo, mpe bato nyonso bagangaki: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo awumela seko na bomoi! »
40 And all the people went up after him, and the people blew on flutes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth was rent at their noise.
Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bazalaki kobeta baflite mpe kosepela makasi sima na ye; mabele eninganaki na makelele na bango.
41 And Adoniyah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had just finished eating: and when Joab heard the sound of the cornet, he said, Wherefore is this noise of the city in an uproar?
Adoniya mpe bato nyonso oyo abengisaki mpo ete bazala na ye elongo bayokaki makelele yango wana bazalaki kosilisa kolia. Boye, tango Joabi ayokaki mongongo ya kelelo, atunaki: — Makelele wana kati na engumba elakisi nini?
42 And while he was yet speaking, behold, Jonathan the son of Ebyathar the priest came in: and Adoniyah said [unto him], Come in; for thou art a worthy man, and must bring good tidings.
Wana azalaki nanu koloba, Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari, akomaki. Adoniya alobaki na ye: — Kota! Moto ya lokumu lokola yo amemaka kaka basango ya malamu.
43 And Jonathan answered and said to Adoniyah, Alas, no; our lord king David hath made Solomon king;
Jonatan azongiselaki Adoniya: — Ezali bongo te! Mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na biso, akomisi Salomo mokonzi!
44 And the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', and the Kerethites, and the Pelethites, and they have caused him to ride upon the king's mule;
Mokonzi atindaki elongo na ye Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, bato ya Kereti mpe bato ya Peleti, mpe bamatisi ye na likolo ya mile ya mokonzi.
45 And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him as king on the Gichon; and they are come up from there rejoicing, and the city hath been set in commotion. This is the noise that ye have heard.
Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe mosakoli Natan bapakoli ye mafuta, na etima ya Giyoni, mpo ete akoma mokonzi. Wuta na Giyoni, bagangi na esengo, mpe engumba mobimba esepeli na likambo yango. Yango nde makelele oyo bozali koyoka.
46 And Solomon hath also sat on the kingly throne.
Mpe lisusu, Salomo avandi na kiti ya bokonzi;
47 And also the king's servants are come to bless our lord king David, saying, May God make the name of Solomon more famous than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne: and the king hath bowed himself upon the bed.
basali ya mokonzi bayei kopesa longonya epai na Davidi, mokonzi na biso, na maloba oyo: « Tika ete Nzambe na yo akomisa kombo ya Salomo monene koleka kombo na yo, mpe kiti na ye ya bokonzi, monene koleka oyo ya yo! » Bongo mokonzi agumbamaki mpe agumbamelaki Nzambe na mbeto na ye,
48 And also thus hath the king said, Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath given [me] this day one who sitteth on my throne, while my eyes see it.
mpe alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, apambolama, Ye oyo, na mokolo ya lelo, apesi ngai nzela ya komona moto oyo akitani na ngai na bokonzi! »
49 And all the guests that were with Adoniyah were terrified, and rose up, and went, every man, on his own way.
Tango bato oyo Adoniya abengisaki bayokaki bongo, batelemaki na kobanga mpe bakimaki moto na moto na nzela na ye.
50 And Adoniyah was afraid because of Solomon; and he arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
Kasi mpo ete Adoniya abangaki Salomo, akendeki kokanga maseke ya etumbelo.
51 And it was told unto Solomon, saying, Behold, Adoniyah feareth king Solomon; and, behold, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me today that he will not slay his servant with the sword.
Bayebisaki Salomo: — Adoniya azali kobanga mokonzi Salomo mpe akangi maseke ya etumbelo. Alobi: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo alapa, na mokolo ya lelo, ndayi liboso na ngai ete akoboma mosali na ye te na mopanga. »
52 And Solomon said, If he will become a worthy man, there shall not a hair of his fall to the earth; but if any wrong shall be found on him, then shall he die.
Salomo azongisaki: — Soki kaka atamboli na sembo, suki ata moko te ya moto na ye ekokweya na mabele; kasi soki mabe emonani kati na ye, akokufa.
53 So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar; and he came and bowed himself to king Solomon; and Solomon said unto him, Go to thy house.
Boye, mokonzi Salomo atindaki bato mpo na kokitisa ye wuta na etumbelo. Bongo Adoniya ayaki mpe agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi Salomo, mpe Salomo alobaki na ye: — Zonga na ndako na yo.
