< 1 Samuel 10 >
1 Then Samuel took the vial of oil and poured it on his head, and kissed him, and said, "Has not the LORD anointed you to be ruler over his people Israel? And you shall rule over the people of the LORD, and you shall save them out of the hand of their enemies all around. And this shall be the sign to you that the LORD has anointed you to be ruler over his inheritance.
Bongo Samuele azwaki molangi ya mafuta, asopaki yango na moto ya Saulo, ayambaki ye mpe alobaki: « Boni, Yawe apakoli yo mafuta te mpo ete ozala mokambi ya libula na Ye?
2 When you have departed from me today, then you shall find two men by Rachel's tomb, in the territory of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will tell you, 'The donkeys which you went to seek have been found; and look, your father has stopped caring about the donkeys, and is anxious for you, saying, "What shall I do about my son?"'
Sima na yo kotika ngai na mokolo ya lelo, okokutana na mibali mibale pembeni ya kunda ya Rasheli, na Tselitsa, na bandelo ya mokili ya Benjame. Bakoloba na yo: ‹ Ba-ane oyo okendeki koluka emonani. Mpe, sik’oyo, tata na yo atiki komitungisa na tina na yango, kasi akomi nde komitungisa mpo na bino. Azali komituna: ‘Nakosala nini mpo na mwana na ngai ya mobali.’ › »
3 Then you will go on further from there and you will come to the oak of Tabor, and three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you. One will be carrying three young goats, and another carrying three containers of bread, and another carrying a container of wine.
Kolongwa wana, okokende mwa mosika kino okokoma na nzete monene ya Tabori epai wapi okokutana na mibali misato oyo bakozala komata epai ya Nzambe, na Beteli. Moko akomema bana misato ya ntaba; mosusu, biteni misato ya mapa; mpe mosusu, molangi ya vino.
4 And they will greet you and give you two wave offerings of bread, which you shall accept from their hand.
Bakopesa yo mbote mpe bakokabela yo mapa mibale. Okozwa yango na maboko na bango.
5 After that you shall come to Gibeath Elohim, where the Philistine garrison is. And it shall happen, when you have come there to the city, that you shall meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with harps, and tambourines, and flutes, and lyres before them, and they will be prophesying.
Sima na yango, okokende na Gibea ya Nzambe epai wapi bayangeli ya Filisitia bazali. Wana okopusana na engumba, okokutana na ngulupa ya basakoli kowuta na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba. Liboso na bango, ekozala na babeti mandanda, bambunda ya mike, baflite mpe banzenze. Wana bakozala kobeta mindule, basakoli yango bakokoma kosakola.
6 And the Spirit of the LORD will come mightily on you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be transformed into a different person.
Bongo Molimo na Yawe akokitela yo na nguya, okosakola elongo na bango, mpe okobongwana moto ya lolenge mosusu.
7 And let it be, when these signs have come to you, that you do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
Soki kaka omoni bilembo oyo kokokisama, wana sala na yo nyonso oyo okoki kosala mpo na yo moko, pamba te Nzambe azali elongo na yo.
8 You shall go down before me to Gilgal; and look, I will come down to you, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: you shall wait seven days, until I come to you, and show you what you shall do."
Bongo okotambola liboso na ngai mpo na kokende na Giligali, mpe ngai nakokuta yo kuna mpo na kobonza bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani. Kasi osengeli kozela mikolo sambo kino naya kokuta yo; mpe nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo osengeli kosala.
9 When he had turned his back to leave Samuel, God changed his heart, and all these signs came to pass that day.
Tango kaka Saulo abalukaki mpo na kotika Samuele, Nzambe abongolaki motema ya Saulo, mpe bilembo nyonso ekokisamaki mokolo wana kaka.
10 And he went from there to Gibeah, and look, a band of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came mightily on him, and he prophesied among them.
Tango bakomaki na Gibea, ngulupa ya basakoli ekutanaki na ye; bongo Molimo ya Nzambe akitelaki ye na nguya, mpe akomaki kosakola kati na bango.
11 It happened, when all who knew him before saw that, look, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another, "What is this that has come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?"
Tango bato nyonso oyo bayebi Saulo wuta kala bamonaki ye kosakola elongo na basakoli bamitunaki: « Likambo nini ekweyi na bomoi ya mwana mobali ya Kishi? Boni, Saulo mpe azali moko kati na basakoli? »
12 One of the same place answered, "Who is their father?" Therefore it became a proverb, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"
Moko kati na bato oyo bazalaki wana alobaki: « Bongo nani azali motambolisi na bango? » Ezali ndenge wana nde ebandaki lisese oyo: « Saulo mpe azali moko kati na basakoli? »
13 And when he had finished prophesying, and went home,
Tango Saulo asilisaki kosakola, akendeki na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba.
14 then his uncle said to him and to his servant, "Where did you go?" And he said, "To seek the donkeys. When we saw that they were not found, we went to Samuel."
Noko ya Saulo atunaki Saulo mpe mosali na ye: — Bokendeki wapi? Saulo azongisaki: — Tokendeki koluka ba-ane. Kasi lokola tomonaki yango te, yango wana tokendeki epai ya Samuele.
15 Saul's uncle said, "Please tell me what Samuel said to you."
Noko ya Saulo alobaki lisusu: — Nabondeli yo, yebisa ngai makambo oyo Samuele alobaki na bino.
16 Saul said to his uncle, "He told us plainly that the donkeys were found." But concerning the matter of the kingdom he did not tell him.
Saulo azongiselaki noko na ye: — Ayebisaki biso ete ba-ane ekomonana solo. Kasi Saulo ayebisaki noko na ye te makambo oyo Samuele alobaki na ye na tina na bokonzi.
17 Samuel called the people together to the LORD to Mizpah;
Samuele abengisaki, na Mitsipa, bato ya Isalaele liboso ya Yawe
18 and he said to the children of Israel, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you:'
mpe alobaki na bango: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Ngai moko nde nabimisaki Isalaele wuta na Ejipito mpe nakangolaki bino na maboko ya bato ya Ejipito mpe ya bokonzi nyonso oyo ezalaki konyokola bino. ›
19 but you have this day rejected your God, who himself saves you out of all your calamities and your distresses; and you have said, 'No. Set a king over us.' Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands."
Kasi, na mokolo ya lelo, bobwaki Nzambe na bino, oyo abikisaka bino na pasi na bino nyonso mpe na minyoko na bino. Mpe bolobi na Ye: ‹ Ponela biso mokonzi oyo akokamba biso! › Lokola ezali bongo, botelema sik’oyo bino moko liboso ya Yawe kolanda bikolo mpe bituka na bino. »
20 So Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
Samuele abengaki ekolo moko na moko ya Isalaele, mpe ekolo ya Benjame eponamaki.
21 He brought the tribe of Benjamin near by their families, and the family of the Matrites was taken. And he brought the family of the Matrites near man by man, and Saul the son of Kish was taken. But when they looked for him, he could not be found.
Abengaki etuka moko na moko ya ekolo ya Benjame, mpe etuka ya Matiri eponamaki. Na suka, ezalaki Saulo, mwana mobali ya Kishi, nde aponamaki. Kasi tango balukaki ye, bamonaki ye te.
22 Therefore they asked of the LORD further, "Is there a man yet to come here?" The LORD answered, "Look, he has hidden himself among the baggage."
Boye, batunaki lisusu Yawe: — Boni, ezali lisusu na moto oyo ayaki awa? Yawe azongisaki: — Iyo! Botala ye wana, abombami kati na biloko.
23 They ran and fetched him there; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
Bapotaki mbangu mpo na kobimisa ye, mpe batelemisaki ye kati na bato; mpe emonanaki ete aleki bato nyonso na molayi.
24 Samuel said to all the people, "You see him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people?" All the people shouted, and said, "Let the king live."
Bongo Samuele alobaki na bato nyonso: — Botala moto oyo Yawe aponi! Kati na bato nyonso, moko te akokani na ye. Bato bazongisaki na koganga: — Tika ete mokonzi awumela na bomoi!
25 Then Samuel told the people the regulations of the kingdom, and wrote it on a scroll, and laid it up before the LORD. Samuel sent all the people away, every man went to his place
Samuele alimbolelaki bato makambo oyo etali bokonzi, akomaki yango na buku mpe atiaki liboso ya Yawe. Sima na yango, azongisaki bato, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
26 Saul also went to his house to Gibeah; and there went with him the valient men, whose hearts the LORD had touched.
Saulo mpe azongaki na ndako na ye, na Gibea, elongo na bilombe mibali oyo Nzambe asimbaki mitema na bango mpo ete balanda ye.
27 But certain worthless fellows said, "How shall this man save us?" So they despised him, and brought him no present. Now Nahash, king of the Ammonites, was severely oppressing the Gadites and the Reubenites. He put out the right eye of all of them, and he would not allow anyone to rescue Israel. Not one was left of the children of Israel beyond the Jordan whose right eye Nahash, king of the Ammonites, did not put out, except for seven thousand men who had escaped from the Ammonites and went to Jabesh Gilead.
Kasi ezalaki na ndambo ya bato ya kilikili oyo bazalaki koloba: « Moto oyo akokoka kobikisa biso ndenge nini? » Batiolaki ye mpe bapesaki ye ata kado moko te. Kasi Saulo avandaki kimia.
