1 Samuel 20
1 And David flees from Naioth in Ramah, and comes, and says before Jonathan, “What have I done? What [is] my iniquity? And what [is] my sin before your father, that he is seeking my life?”
Davidi akimaki wuta na Nayoti ya Rama mpe akendeki epai ya Jonatan. Atunaki ye: — Nasali nini? Mabe nini nasali? Lisumu nini nasali liboso ya tata na yo mpo ete aluka koboma ngai?
2 And he says to him, “Far be it! You do not die; behold, my father does not do anything great or small and does not uncover my ear; and why does my father hide this thing from me? This [thing] is not.”
Jonatan azongisaki: — Te, Ekosalema te! Okokufa te! Tala, tata na ngai asalaka eloko moko te, ezala ya moke to ya monene, soki ayebisi ngai te. Mpo na nini tata na ngai abombela ngai kaka likambo oyo? Ezali bongo te.
3 And David swears again and says, “Your father has certainly known that I have found grace in your eyes, and he says, Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he is grieved; and yet, YHWH lives, and your soul lives, but—as a step between me and death.”
Kasi Davidi alapaki ndayi na koloba: « Tata na yo ayebi malamu ete nazwaki ngolu na miso na yo, mpe amilobelaki: ‹ Tika ete Jonatan ayeba makambo oyo te, noki te akoyoka pasi na motema! › Nzokande, na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo moko, etikali kaka moke ete baboma ngai. »
4 And Jonathan says to David, “What does your soul [desire]? Command and I do it for you.”
Jonatan alobaki na Davidi: — Nakosala nyonso oyo okolinga ete ngai nasala mpo na yo.
5 And David says to Jonathan, “Behold, the new moon [is] tomorrow; and I certainly sit with the king to eat; and you have sent me away, and I have been hidden in a field until the third evening;
Davidi azongiselaki Jonatan: — Lobi ekozala mokolo ya feti ya Sanza ya Sika; nasengelaki kovanda mesa moko na mokonzi mpo na kolia. Pesa ngai nzela ete nakende kobombama na bilanga kino na pokwa ya mokolo ya misato.
6 if your father looks after me at all, then you have said, David earnestly asked of me to run to his city of Beth-Lehem, for there [is] a sacrifice of the days for all the family.
Soki tata na yo amitungisi mpo na kozanga na ngai komonana, okoloba na ye: « Davidi atungisaki ngai ete napesa ye nzela ya kokende noki na engumba na ye, Beteleemi, pamba te etuka mobimba ekosepela kuna mbeka oyo babonzaka mibu nyonso. »
7 If thus he says: Good; [there is] peace for your servant; and if it is very displeasing to him—know that the evil has been determined by him;
Soki alobi: « Malamu, » wana mosali na yo akozala na kimia. Kasi soki atomboki na kanda, wana yeba malamu ete azwi mokano ya kosala ngai mabe.
8 and you have done kindness to your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of YHWH with you—and if there is iniquity in me, put me to death yourself; for why [is] this [that] you bring me to your father?”
Boye, salela mosali na yo bolamu, pamba te okotisaki ye na boyokani elongo na yo liboso ya Yawe. Soki nasalaki mabe na likambo songolo, yo moko boma ngai! Mpo na nini kokaba ngai na maboko ya tata na yo?
9 And Jonathan says, “Far be it from you! For I certainly do not know that the evil has been determined by my father to come on you, and I do not declare it to you.”
Jonatan alobaki: — Te! Ekozala penza likambo ya nkele soki ngai nakoki koyeba ete tata na ngai azwi mokano ya kosala yo mabe, bongo nayebisi yo yango te!
10 And David says to Jonathan, “Who declares [it] to me? Or what [if] your father answers you sharply?”
Davidi atunaki Jonatan: — Bongo soki tata na yo akozongisela yo eyano na kanda, nani akoyebisa ngai?
11 And Jonathan says to David, “Come, and we go out into the field”; and both of them go out into the field.
Jonatan azongiselaki Davidi: — Yaka, tokende na zamba! Boye, bango mibale bakendeki nzela moko na zamba.
12 And Jonathan says to David, “YHWH, God of Israel, [is my witness]—when I search out my father about [this] time tomorrow [or] the third [day], and behold, [there is] good toward David, and I do not then send to you, and have uncovered your ear—
Jonatan alobaki na Davidi: « Na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, lobi to sima na lobi, na ngonga oyo, nakoluka koyeba makanisi ya tata na ngai mpo na yo. Soki ezali malamu, bongo natindi moto te mpo na koyebisa yo yango,
13 thus YHWH does to Jonathan, and thus He adds; when the evil concerning you is good to my father, then I have uncovered your ear, and sent you away, and you have gone in peace, and YHWH is with you, as he was with my father;
wana tika ete Yawe asala na ngai Jonatan nyonso oyo ekozala malamu na miso na Ye! Kasi soki tata na ngai azali na makanisi ya kosala yo mabe, ngai nakoyebisa yo mpe nakotika yo kokende mpo ete okende na yo na kimia. Tika ete Yawe azala elongo na yo ndenge azalaki elongo na tata na ngai!
14 and not only while I am alive do you do the kindness of YHWH with me, and I do not die,
Sima na mikolo, soki nakozala nanu na bomoi, salela ngai bolamu lokola bolamu ya Yawe mpo ete baboma ngai te.
15 but you do not cut off your kindness from my house for all time, nor in YHWH’s cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.”
Mpe kolemba te kosalela libota na ngai bolamu, ata tango Yawe akolongola banguna nyonso ya Davidi, na etando ya mokili. »
16 So Jonathan cuts [a covenant] with the house of David, and YHWH has sought [it] from the hand of the enemies of David;
Boye Jonatan asalaki boyokani elongo na libota ya Davidi na maloba oyo: « Tika ete Yawe azongisa mabe na mabe na banguna ya Davidi! »
17 and Jonathan adds to cause David to swear, because he loves him, for he has loved him [as] the love [for] his own soul.
Mpe Jonatan asengaki ete Davidi alapa lisusu ndayi na ye na kombo ya bolingo na ye Davidi epai ya Jonatan, pamba te azalaki kolinga ye ndenge ye moko amilingaka.
18 And Jonathan says to him, “Tomorrow [is] the new moon, and you have been looked after, for your seat is looked after;
Bongo Jonatan alobaki na Davidi: — Lobi ekozala mokolo ya feti ya Sanza ya Sika; bato bakomitungisa mpo na yo mpo ete okozala te, mpe bakomona ete esika na yo ekozala pamba.
19 and on the third day you certainly come down, and have come to the place where you were hidden in the day of the work, and have remained near the stone of Ezel.
Sima na lobi, na pokwa, okokende kino na esika epai wapi obombamaki tango likambo oyo ebandaki mpe okovanda pembeni ya libanga Ezeli.
20 And I shoot three of the arrows at the side, sending out at a mark for myself;
Ngai nakobwaka makonga misato na ngambo moko ya libanga yango lokola nde nazali kobwaka na elembo moko.
21 and behold, I send the youth, [saying], Go, find the arrows. If I say to the youth at all, Behold, the arrows [are] on this side of you—take them and come, for [there is] peace for you, and there is no [adverse] word—[as] YHWH lives.
Bongo nakotinda elenge mobali moko kokende koluka makonga yango. Soki nalobi na ye: « Tala, makonga ezali pembeni na yo, lokota mpe yaka na yango awa, » wana nalingi koloba: « Na Kombo na Yawe, yaka mpo ete ozali na kimia, likambo ezali te. »
22 And if thus I say to the young man, Behold, the arrows [are] beyond you—go, for YHWH has sent you away;
Kasi soki nalobi na elenge mobali: « Tala, makonga ezali mosika na yo; » wana nalingi koloba: « Kima na yo, pamba te Yawe akimisi yo. »
23 as for the thing which you and I have spoken, behold, YHWH [is] between me and you for all time.”
Bongo mpo na liloba oyo tosololaki ngai na yo, yeba ete Yawe azali Motatoli kati na ngai mpe yo mpo na libela.
24 And David is hidden in the field, and it is the new moon, and the king sits down by the food to eat,
Davidi abombamaki kati na zamba. Bongo na tango ya feti ya Sanza ya Sika, mokonzi avandaki na mesa mpo na kolia.
25 and the king sits on his seat, as time by time, on a seat by the wall, and Jonathan rises, and Abner sits at the side of Saul, and David’s place is looked after.
Mokonzi avandaki lokola momesano na esika na ye pembeni ya mir. Jonatan atelemaki, mpe Abineri avandaki pembeni ya Saulo, kasi esika ya Davidi ezalaki polele.
26 And Saul has not spoken anything on that day, for he said, “It [is] an accident; he is not clean—surely not clean.”
Saulo alobaki eloko moko te na mokolo wana, pamba te akanisaki kaka ete eloko moko esalemi epai ya Davidi oyo ekomisi ye mbindo.
27 And it comes to pass on the second day of the new moon, that David’s place is looked after, and Saul says to his son Jonathan, “Why has the son of Jesse not come in, either yesterday or today, to the food?”
Kasi mokolo oyo elandaki, mokolo ya mibale ya feti ya Sanza ya Sika, lokola esika ya Davidi ezalaki lisusu polele, Saulo alobaki na mwana na ye ya mobali, Jonatan: — Mpo na nini mwana mobali ya Izayi ayei te mpo na kolia, ezala lobi oyo eleki to lelo?
28 And Jonathan answers Saul, “David has earnestly asked [permission] from me [to go] to Beth-Lehem,
Jonatan azongiselaki Saulo: — Davidi atungisaki ngai ete napesa ye nzela ya kokende noki na Beteleemi.
29 and he says, Please send me away, for we have a family sacrifice in the city, and my brother has given command to me himself, and now, if I have found grace in your eyes, please let me go away and see my brothers; therefore he has not come to the table of the king.”
Alobaki: « Pesa ngai nzela ya kokende mpo ete etuka na ngai esengeli kobonza mbeka kati na engumba, mpe ndeko na ngai ya mobali abengisi ngai mpo ete nazala kuna. Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, tika ngai kokende kotala bandeko na ngai. » Yango wana ayei te na mesa ya mokonzi.
30 And the anger of Saul burns against Jonathan, and he says to him, “Son of a perverse [woman] of rebellion! Have I not known that you are fixing on the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of the nakedness of your mother?
Saulo asilikelaki makasi Jonatan mpe alobaki na ye: — Yo mwana mobali ya mwasi ya yawuli mpe motomboki, nayebi solo ete okoteli mwana mobali ya Izayi; kasi ezali mpo na soni na yo mpe ya mama oyo abota yo.
31 For all the days that the son of Jesse lives on the ground you are not established, you and your kingdom; and now, send and bring him to me, for he [is] a son of death.”
Pamba te tango nyonso mwana mobali ya Izayi akozala na bomoi kati na mokili oyo, ezala yo to bokonzi na yo, bokozala na kimia te. Sik’oyo, lukisa ye mpe memela ngai ye, pamba te asengeli kokufa.
32 And Jonathan answers his father Saul and says to him, “Why is he put to death? What has he done?”
Jonatan atunaki Saulo, tata na ye: — Basengeli koboma ye mpo na nini? Asali nini?
33 And Saul casts the javelin at him to strike him, and Jonathan knows that it has been determined by his father to put David to death.
Saulo abwakelaki Jonatan likonga na ye mpo na koboma ye, mpe Jonatan asosolaki ete tata na ye azali na makanisi ya koboma Davidi.
34 And Jonathan rises from the table in the heat of anger, and has not eaten food on the second day of the new moon, for he has been grieved for David, for his father put him to shame.
Jonatan alongwaki na mesa na kanda makasi mpe atikalaki kolia te na mokolo oyo ya mibale ya feti ya Sanza ya Sika, pamba te ayokaki pasi na motema na ndenge tata na ye afingaki Davidi.
35 And it comes to pass in the morning, that Jonathan goes out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little youth [is] with him.
Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Jonatan akendeki na zamba kokutana na Davidi. Azalaki elongo na elenge mobali moko.
36 And he says to his youth, “Now run, find the arrows which I am shooting”; the youth is running, and he has shot the arrow, causing [it] to pass over him.
Alobaki na elenge mobali: « Kima mbangu mpe lokota makonga oyo nazali kobwaka. » Tango elenge mobali azalaki kokima mbangu, Jonatan abwakaki likonga liboso na ye.
37 And the youth comes to the place of the arrow which Jonathan has shot, and Jonathan calls after the youth, and says, “Is the arrow not beyond you?”
Mpe tango elenge mobali akomaki na esika oyo likonga ya Jonatan ekweyaki, Jonatan alobaki na ye na mongongo makasi: « Boni, likonga ezali liboso na yo te? »
38 And Jonathan calls after the youth, “Speed, hurry, do not stand”; and Jonathan’s youth gathers the arrows, and comes to his lord.
Bongo Jonatan agangaki lisusu: « Sala noki! Kima mbangu, kotelema te! » Elenge mobali alokotaki likonga mpe azongaki epai ya nkolo na ye.
39 And the youth has not known anything, only Jonathan and David knew the word.
Elenge mobali ayebaki ata eloko moko te na makambo oyo nyonso; kaka Jonatan mpe Davidi nde bayebaki.
40 And Jonathan gives his weapons to the youth whom he has and says to him, “Go, carry into the city.”
Bongo Jonatan apesaki bibundeli na ye epai ya elenge mobali mpe alobaki: « Kende kozongisa yango na engumba. »
41 The youth has gone, and David has risen from Ezel, at the south, and falls on his face to the earth, and bows himself three times, and they kiss one another, and they weep with one another, until David exerted himself;
Sima na elenge mobali kozonga, Davidi abimaki na ngambo ya sude ya libanga mpe agumbamaki mbala misato liboso ya Jonatan, elongi etala na se. Bayambanaki mpe balelaki elongo, kasi Davidi alelaki mingi koleka.
42 and Jonathan says to David, “Go in peace, in that we have sworn—the two of us—in the Name of YHWH, saying, YHWH is between me and you, and between my seed and your seed—for all time”; and he rises and goes; and Jonathan has gone into the city.
Jonatan alobaki na Davidi: « Kende na kimia, pamba te biso mibale tolapanaki ndayi na Kombo na Yawe na koloba: ‹ Yawe azali Motatoli kati na yo mpe ngai, mpe kati ya bakitani na yo mpe bakitani na ngai mpo na libela. › » Bongo Davidi akendeki, mpe Jonatan azongaki na engumba.
