< 2 Samuel 23 >
1 And these [are] the last words of David: “A declaration of David son of Jesse, And a declaration of the man raised up—Concerning the anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweetness of the songs of Israel:
Tala maloba ya suka ya Davidi: Maloba ya Davidi, mwana mobali ya Izayi, moto oyo atombolama na bokonzi, mopakolami ya Nzambe ya Jakobi, moyembi malamu ya banzembo ya Isalaele:
2 The Spirit of YHWH has spoken by me, And His word [is] on my tongue.
« Molimo na Yawe alobi na nzela na ngai, atie maloba na Ye na monoko na ngai.
3 He said—the God of Israel—to me, He spoke—the Rock of Israel: He who is ruling over man [is] righteous, He is ruling in the fear of God.
Nzambe oyo azali Libanga ya Isalaele ayebisi ngai: ‹ Mokonzi oyo akambaka bato kati na bosembo mpe botosi epai ya Nzambe,
4 And he rises as the light of morning, A morning sun [with] no clouds! By the shining, by the rain, Tender grass of the earth!
azali lokola pole ya tongo, tango moyi ebimaka mpe engalaka makasi lokola nde mapata ezali te, lokola kongenga ya sima na mvula oyo ebimisaka matiti na mokili. ›
5 For though my house [is] not so with God; So He made a perpetual covenant with me, Arranged in all things, and kept; For all my salvation, and all desire, For He has not caused [it] to spring up.
Ezali bongo te mpo na libota na ngai liboso ya Nzambe, pamba te asalaki boyokani ya libela elongo na ngai, boyokani oyo esalema malamu na makambo nyonso, mpe oyo Ye moko abatelaka? Tango nyonso mpe na makambo nyonso, apesaki ngai elonga mpe akokisaki posa ya motema na ngai.
6 As for the worthless—All of them [are] driven away as a thorn, For they are not taken away by hand;
Kasi bato nyonso ya kilikili bazali lokola nzete ya nzube oyo babwakaka mosika; basimbaka yango te na maboko pamba.
7 And the man who comes against them Is filled with iron and the staff of a spear, And they are utterly burned with fire In the cessation.”
Moto oyo alingi kosimba yango asengeli kosalela ebende to libaya ya likonga; batumbaka yango kaka na esika oyo ezali. »
8 These [are] the names of the mighty ones whom David has: sitting in the seat [is] the Tachmonite, head of the captains—he [is] Adino, who hardened himself against eight hundred—wounded at one time.
Tala bakombo ya basoda ya mpiko ya Davidi: Yoshebi-Bashebeti, moto ya Takimoni: azalaki mokonzi ya limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko, abomaki na likonga bato nkama mwambe na etumba moko.
9 And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, of the three mighty men with David; in their exposing themselves among the Philistines—they have been gathered there to battle, and the men of Israel go up—
Molandi na ye ezalaki Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Dodo, moto ya Aoyi: azalaki moko kati na limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko oyo, elongo na Davidi, babundisaki bato ya Filisitia oyo basanganaki mpo na bitumba, wana bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kokima na likolo ya bangomba.
10 he has arisen, and strikes among the Philistines until his hand has been weary, and his hand cleaves to the sword, and YHWH works a great salvation on that day, and the people turn back after him only to strip off.
Kasi ye ayikaki mpiko kati na bitumba mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia kino alembaki, mpe loboko na ye etikaki mopanga te. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene na mokolo wana. Mampinga bazongaki epai ya Eleazari kaka mpo na kokamata biloko ya bato oyo bakufaki.
11 And after him [is] Shammah son of Agee the Hararite, and the Philistines are gathered into a company, and there is a portion of the field full of lentils there, and the people have fled from the presence of the Philistines,
Sima na ye, Shama, mwana mobali ya Age, moto ya Arari. Tango bato ya Filisitia basanganaki na Leyi epai wapi ezalaki na elanga moko etonda na misili, basoda ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango.
12 and he stations himself in the midst of the portion, and delivers it, and strikes the Philistines, and YHWH works a great salvation.
Kasi Shama atelemaki na kati-kati ya elanga, abundelaki yango mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene.
13 And three of the thirty heads go down and come to the harvest, to David, to the cave of Adullam, and the company of the Philistines are encamping in the Valley of Rephaim,
Mokolo moko, na ebandeli ya eleko ya kobuka bambuma, wana basoda ya bato ya Filisitia batongaki molako na bango kati na lubwaku ya Refayimi, basoda misato kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko bayaki epai ya Davidi, na ebombamelo ya mabanga ya Adulami.
14 and David [is] then in a fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,
Na tango yango, Davidi azalaki kati na ebombamelo moko batonga makasi, mpe basoda ya Filisitia bazalaki na Beteleemi.
15 and David longs and says, “Who gives me a drink of the water of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate?”
Mbala moko, Davidi ayokaki posa ya mayi mpe alobaki: « Nani akomemela ngai mayi ya libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpo ete namela? »
16 And the three mighty ones cleave through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water out of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate, and take [it] up, and bring [it] to David; and he was not willing to drink it, and pours it out to YHWH,
Basoda nyonso misato ya mpiko bakotaki na mayele kati na molako ya bato ya Filisitia, batokaki mayi na libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpe bamemaki yango epai ya Davidi. Kasi Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango; asopaki yango na mabele lokola likabo ya masanga mpo na Yawe.
17 and says, “Far be it from me, O YHWH, to do this; is it the blood of the men who are going with their lives?” And he was not willing to drink it; the three mighty ones did these [things].
Alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe apesa ngai etumbu soki nameli mayi oyo, pamba te ezali lokola makila ya bato oyo bandimaki kokende kokufa mpo na ngai. » Boye, Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango. Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo basoda misato ya mpiko basalaki.
18 And Abishai brother of Joab, son of Zeruiah, he [is] head of three, and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred—wounded, and he has a name among three.
Abishayi, ndeko mobali ya Joabi mpe mwana mobali ya Tseruya, azalaki mokonzi ya basoda misato ya mpiko. Abundisaki bato nkama misato na likonga na ye mpe abomaki bango. Boye, kati na bango misato, ye nde akendeki sango koleka.
19 Is he not the honored of the three? And he becomes their head; and he has not come to the [first] three.
Kati na basoda misato ya mpiko, ye nde azwaki lokumu koleka mpe akomaki mokonzi na bango, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya limpinga ya liboso.
20 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada (son of a man of valor, great in deeds from Kabzeel), has struck two lion-like men of Moab, and he has gone down and struck the lion in the midst of the pit in a day of snow.
Benaya, moto ya mboka Kabitseli mpe mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, azalaki soda ya mpiko mpe asalaki makambo ebele ya kokamwa: abomaki bilombe mibale ya Moabi; mpe na mokolo ya mvula ya pembe, akitaki na libulu moko ya mayi mpe abomaki kuna nkosi.
21 And he has struck the Egyptian man, a man of appearance, and a spear [is] in the hand of the Egyptian, and he goes down to him with a rod, and takes the spear violently away out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slays him with his own spear.
Ye mpe moto abomaki mbinga mobali moko ya Ejipito, oyo asimbaki likonga na loboko na ye. Abundisaki moto yango ya Ejipito na lingenda, abotolaki ye likonga oyo azalaki na yango na loboko mpe abomaki ye na likonga na ye moko.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada has done these [things], and has a name among the three mighty ones.
Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, asalaki. Ye mpe akendeki sango kati na basoda misato ya mpiko ya lisanga ya mibale.
23 He is honored more than the thirty, but he did not come to the three; and David sets him over his guard.
Kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko, ye nde azalaki na lokumu monene koleka, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya mpiko ya limpinga ya liboso. Mpe Davidi akomisaki ye mokonzi ya bakengeli na ye.
