< 2 Samuel 15 >
1 And after this Absalom began to furnish himself with a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Na tango wana, Abisalomi azwaki shar, bampunda mpe basoda tuku mitano oyo bazalaki kotambola liboso na ye lokola bakengeli na ye.
2 And Absalom used to get up early and stand beside the road. Then when anyone had a dispute which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom would call out to him and say, "What city are you from?" When he said, "Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel,"
Abisalomi azalaki kolamuka na tongo makasi mpe azalaki kokende kotelema pembeni ya nzela oyo ekenda na ekotelo ya engumba. Bongo, tango nyonso moto azalaki koleka mpo na kokende epai ya mokonzi mpo ete akatela ye likambo, ye Abisalomi azalaki kobenga ye mpe kotuna ye: — Ozali moto ya engumba nini? Soki moto yango azongisi: — Mosali na yo azali moto ya moko kati na bikolo ya Isalaele.
3 then Absalom would say to him, "Look, your matters are good and right; but there is no one from the king to hear you."
Abisalomi azalaki koloba na ye: — Tala, likambo na yo ezali malamu mpe sembo; kasi ezali na moto moko te oyo akoki koyoka yo epai ya mokonzi.
4 And Absalom would say, "Oh that I were made judge in the land, then anyone who had a dispute could come to me, and I would give him justice."
Abisalomi azalaki kobakisa: — Ah! Soki nazalaki mosambisi kati na mokili oyo, moto nyonso oyo azali na likambo alingaki koya epai na ngai, mpe nalingaki kolongisa ye na likambo yango!
5 It was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he would extend his hand and embrace him, and kiss him.
Mpe tango nyonso moto azalaki kopusana mpo na kogumbama liboso na ye Abisalomi, Abisalomi azalaki kopesa loboko, koyamba mpe kopesa ye beze.
6 Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Azalaki kosala bongo epai ya bato nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kokende epai ya mokonzi mpo ete akata likambo na bango, mpe ezalaki bongo nde Abisalomi azalaki komikotisa na mayele kati na mitema ya bato ya Isalaele.
7 It happened at the end of four years, that Absalom said to the king, "Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to Jehovah, in Hebron.
Sima na mibu minei, Abisalomi alobaki na mokonzi: — Pesa ngai nzela mpo ete nakende na Ebron mpo na kokokisa ndayi oyo nalapaki epai na Yawe,
8 For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Aram, saying, 'If Jehovah will bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah in Hebron.'"
pamba te tango mosali na yo azalaki kovanda na Geshuri kati na Siri, nalapaki ndayi oyo: « Soki Yawe azongisi ngai na Yelusalemi, nakogumbamela Ye. »
9 The king said to him, "Go in peace." So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Kende na kimia. Boye akendeki na Ebron.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, 'Absalom is king in Hebron.'"
Mpe longwa kuna, Abisalomi atindaki bantoma kati na bikolo nyonso ya Isalaele mpo na koloba: « Tango kaka bokoyoka lokito ya kelelo, boloba: ‹ Abisalomi akomi mokonzi kati na Ebron. › »
11 Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they did not know anything.
Mibali nkama mibale babengisamaki wuta na Yelusalemi mpe bakendeki elongo na Abisalomi. Bakendeki na boboto mpe bayebaki ata likambo moko te.
12 And he sent and invited Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh, where he was offering sacrifice. The conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Wana Abisalomi azalaki kobonza mbeka, abengisaki Ayitofeli, moto ya Gilo, mopesi toli ya Davidi, wuta na engumba na ye ya Gilo. Boye, likita ya batomboki ekomaki makasi; mpe lisanga ya Abisalomi ekomaki na bato ebele.
13 A messenger came to David, saying, "The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom."
Ntoma moko ayaki koyebisa Davidi: — Mitema ya bato ya Isalaele esangani elongo na Abisalomi.
14 So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, "Arise, and let us flee, otherwise none of us shall escape from Absalom. Go immediately, or else he will quickly overtake us and bring down the city on top of us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword."
Davidi alobaki na bakalaka na ye nyonso oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi: — Boya! Tosengeli kokima, soki te moko te kati na biso akobika liboso ya Abisalomi. Tosengeli kobima na lombangu, soki te akoya na lombangu kokanga biso, kobebisa biso mpe koboma engumba na mopanga.
15 Then the king's servants said to him, "Look, your servants are ready to do whatever the king chooses."
Bakalaka ya mokonzi bazongiselaki Davidi: — Basali na yo bazali ya kobongama mpo na kosala makambo nyonso oyo mokonzi, nkolo na biso, akopona.
16 And the king went out with all his household following him. But the king left ten women, who were secondary wives, to take care of the palace.
Mokonzi akendeki na makolo elongo na libota na ye mobimba oyo ezalaki kolanda ye; kasi atikaki bamakangu zomi mpo na kobatela ndako na ye.
17 So the king went out with all his servants following him, and they stopped at the last house.
Boye mokonzi akendeki na makolo elongo na bato na ye nyonso oyo bazalaki kolanda ye mpe batelemaki pene ya ndako ya suka ya engumba.
18 And all the people passed on before him. And all those with him, all the officers and warriors, were six hundred men, and they passed on before him. And when all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the Gittites who followed him from Gath passed on before the king.
Basoda na ye nyonso bazalaki kotambola na bapembeni na ye elongo na bato nyonso ya Kereti mpe ya Peleti. Mpe bato nyonso ya Gati, nkama motoba, oyo batambolaki elongo na ye longwa na Gati, bazalaki kotambola liboso ya mokonzi.
19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, "Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and you also are an exile from your place.
Mokonzi alobaki na Itayi, moto ya Gati: — Mpo na nini yo mpe olingi koya elongo na biso? Zonga mpe vanda elongo na Abisalomi, mokonzi ya sika! Ozali mopaya, otikaki mboka na yo mpo na koya kokima awa.
20 You came only yesterday. Should I today make you wander about with us, since I go I know not where? Go back, and take your brothers with you, and may Jehovah show you kindness and truth."
Oyaki mpe kaka lobi oyo ewuti koleka, bongo ndenge nini, lelo, namema yo elongo na biso wana nayebi kutu te epai nini nazali kokende? Zonga mpe zwa bato ya mboka na yo! Tika ete bolamu mpe boyengebene ya Yawe ezala elongo na yo!
21 Ittai answered the king, and said, "As Jehovah lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will your servant be."
Itayi azongiselaki mokonzi: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mosali na yo akozala bipai nyonso oyo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akozala, ezala mpo na bomoi to mpo na kufa.
22 So David said to Ittai, "Go and pass over." Then Ittai passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
Davidi alobaki na Itayi: — Malamu! Leka liboso mpe tambola! Boye Itayi, moto ya Gati, atambolaki liboso elongo na basoda nyonso mpe mabota oyo ezalaki elongo na ye.
23 And all the land wept aloud as all the people crossed over. And the king crossed the Wadi Kidron, and all the people passed before him on the Olive road into the wilderness.
Tango bato nyonso bazalaki koleka, mboka mobimba ezalaki kolela makasi. Mokonzi akatisaki lubwaku ya Sedron, mpe bato nyonso bakendeki na nzela oyo ekenda na esobe.
24 And look, Zadok also came (and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah) and Abiathar. And they set down the ark of God until all the people finished passing by from the city.
Tsadoki mpe azalaki wana elongo na Balevi oyo bazalaki elongo na ye mpe bamemaki Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Nzambe. Bakitisaki Sanduku ya Nzambe, mpe Abiatari abonzaki mbeka kino tango bato nyonso basilisaki kobima na engumba.
25 The king said to Zadok, "Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the eyes of Jehovah, he will bring me back and show me both it and his dwelling place;
Mokonzi alobaki na Tsadoki: — Zongisa Sanduku ya Nzambe kati na engumba. Soki nazwi ngolu na miso ya Yawe, akozongisa ngai mpe akopesa ngai nzela ya komona lisusu Sanduku yango mpe ndako na yango.
26 but if he should say, 'I have no delight in you;' look, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him."
Kasi soki Nzambe alobi: « Nasepeli na yo te, » wana tika ete asala epai na ngai makambo oyo amoni ete ezali malamu, pamba te nazali ya kobongama.
27 And the king said also to Zadok the priest, "Look, you return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Mokonzi alobaki lisusu epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki: — Ozali momoni makambo te? Zonga na kimia na engumba elongo na Ayimaatsi, mwana na yo ya mobali, mpe Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Abiatari. Yo mpe Abiatari, bozwa mpe bomema bana na bino mibale ya mibali.
28 Look, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me."
Nakozela na bitando ya esobe kino nakoyoka liloba kowuta epai na bino.
29 So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark to Jerusalem and returned it there.
Boye Tsadoki mpe Abiatari bazongisaki Sanduku ya Nzambe, na Yelusalemi, mpe batikalaki kuna.
30 And David went up by the Ascent of the Olives, and wept as he went, and he had his head covered and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up weeping as they went.
Kasi Davidi azalaki komata ngomba ya banzete ya olive na kolela, moto na ye ya kozipama mpe makolo ngulu. Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bazipaki bango mpe mito na bango mpe bazalaki kolela wana bazalaki komata.
31 And it had been told to David, saying, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." David said, "Jehovah, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness."
Bayaki koyebisa Davidi ete Ayitofeli azali kati na bato oyo basalaki likita elongo na Abisalomi. Boye Davidi asambelaki: « Eh Yawe, sala ete batoli ya Ayitofeli ezanga tina. »
32 It happened that when David had come to the top, where God was worshiped, look, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and earth on his head.
Tango Davidi akomaki na songe ya ngomba epai wapi bato bazalaki na momesano ya kokende kogumbamela Nzambe, Ushayi, moto ya Ariki, mopesi toli ya Davidi, azalaki kuna mpo na kokutana na ye, na nzambala na ye epasuka mpe moto na ye etonda na putulu.
33 David said to him, "If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
Davidi alobaki na ye: — Soki okeyi elongo na ngai, okozala mokumba mpo na ngai.
34 but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, 'Your brothers have left, O king, after your father left, and now I am your servant, O king. Allow me to live. As I have been your father's servant in the past, so now I am your servant,' then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Kasi soki ozongi na engumba mpe olobi na Abisalomi: « Nakozala mosali na yo, oh mokonzi! Kala, nazalaki mosali ya tata na yo, kasi sik’oyo, nakozala mosali na yo, » wana okosunga ngai na kobebisa toli ya Ayitofeli.
35 And look, Zadok and Abiathar the priests will be there with you. So whatever you hear from the king's house you must tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
Lokola Banganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe Abiatari bakozala kuna elongo na yo, okoyebisa bango makambo nyonso oyo okoyoka na ndako ya mokonzi.
36 Look, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. And by them you must send to me everything that you hear."
Bana na bango ya mibali mibale, Ayimaatsi, mwana mobali ya Tsadoki, mpe Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Abiatari, bazali mpe kuna elongo na bango. Okotinda bango mpo ete baya koyebisa ngai makambo nyonso oyo okoyoka.
37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Boye Ushayi, moninga ya Davidi, azongaki na engumba, kaka na tango oyo Abisalomi mpe akotaki kati na Yelusalemi.
