< 1 Samuel 27 >

1 And David says to his heart, “Now I am consumed by the hand of Saul one day; there is nothing better for me than that I diligently escape to the land of the Philistines, and Saul has been despairing of me—of seeking me anymore in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.”
Davidi akanisaki mpe amilobelaki: « Mokolo ezali oyo Saulo akoboma ngai na nzela ya loboko na ye. Boye eleki malamu mpo na ngai kokima na mokili ya bato ya Filisitia. Na bongo nde Saulo akotika koluka ngai kati na Isalaele mobimba, mpe ngai nakokima loboko na ye. »
2 And David rises, and passes over, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, to Achish son of Maoch king of Gath;
Bongo Davidi elongo na bato nkama motoba oyo bazalaki elongo na ye batelemaki mpe bakendeki epai ya Akishi, mwana mobali ya Maoki, mokonzi ya Gati.
3 and David dwells with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each one with his household, [even] David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelitess.
Davidi mpe bato na ye bavandaki na Gati epai ya Akishi: mobali nyonso azalaki na libota na ye, mpe Davidi azalaki na basi na ye mibale: Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli, mpe Abigayili oyo azalaki liboso mwasi ya Nabali, moto ya Karimeli.
4 And it is declared to Saul that David has fled to Gath, and he has not added to seek him anymore.
Tango bayebisaki Saulo ete Davidi akimi na Gati, atikaki koluka ye.
5 And David says to Achish, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes, they give a place to me in one of the cities of the field, and I dwell there, indeed, why does your servant dwell in the royal city with you?”
Davidi alobaki na Akishi: « Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, tika ete bapesa ngai esika epai wapi nakoki kovanda kati na moko ya bingumba ya mokili. Mpo na nini mosali na yo avanda na mboka mokonzi elongo na yo? »
6 And Achish gives Ziklag to him in that day, therefore Ziklag has been for the kings of Judah until this day.
Na mokolo wana, Akishi apesaki ye engumba ya Tsikilagi. Yango wana Tsikilagi ekoma kino na mokolo ya lelo engumba ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
7 And the number of the days which David has dwelt in the field of the Philistines [is one year] of days and four months;
Davidi awumelaki na mokili ya bato ya Filisitia mobu moko mpe sanza minei.
8 and David and his men go up, and they push toward the Geshurite, and the Gerizite, and the Amalekite (for they are inhabitants of the land from of old), as you come to Shur and to the land of Egypt,
Na tango wana, Davidi mpe bato na ye bazalaki kobundisa bato ya Geshuri, ya Girizi mpe ya Amaleki; pamba te wuta kala, bato ya bikolo yango bazalaki kovanda na mokili longwa na Shuri kino na Ejipito.
9 and David has struck the land, and does not keep alive man and woman, and has taken sheep, and oxen, and donkeys, and camels, and garments, and turns back, and comes to Achish.
Tango nyonso Davidi azalaki kobundisa mboka moko, azalaki kotika te na bomoi ezala mobali to mwasi. Nzokande azalaki kobotola bameme, bangombe, ba-ane, bashamo mpe bilamba. Bongo azalaki kozonga epai ya Akishi.
10 And Achish says, “To where have you pushed today?” And David says, “Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelite, and to the south of the Kenite.”
Tango Akishi atunaki: — Bobundi wapi lelo? Davidi azongisaki: — Tobundi na sude ya Yuda, na sude ya mokili ya bato ya Yerameeli, mpe na sude ya mokili ya bato ya Keni.
11 David keeps alive neither man nor woman, to bring in [word] to Gath, saying, “Lest they declare [it] against us, saying, Thus David has done, and thus [is] his custom all the days that he has dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.”
Davidi azalaki kotika te ete bamema na Gati, ezala mobali to mwasi, noki te bapanza sango na ye na maloba oyo: « Tala makambo oyo Davidi asalaki. » Davidi azalaki kosala kaka bongo, tango nyonso oyo avandaki na mboka ya bato ya Filisitia.
12 And Achish believes in David, saying, “He has made himself utterly abhorred among his people in Israel, and has been for a perpetual servant to me.”
Akishi atielaki Davidi motema mpe alobaki: « Lokola Davidi amiyinisi na miso ya Isalaele, bato na ye, akozala mosali na ngai mpo na libela. »
