1 Samuel 25
1 Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Maon.
Samuele akufaki, mpe Isalaele mobimba esanganaki mpo na kosala matanga na tina na ye; bongo bakundaki ye na mboka na ye, Rama. Davidi akendeki na esobe ya Parani.
2 There was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
Na mboka Maoni, ezalaki na moto moko ya bozwi oyo bomengo na ye ezalaki kati na mboka Karimeli. Azalaki na bameme ya mibali nkoto misato mpe bantaba ya basi nkoto moko. Na eleko oyo, azalaki kati na Karimeli epai wapi azalaki kokata bameme na ye bapwale.
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. And the woman was intelligent and beautiful, but the man was harsh and evil in his dealings; and the man was a Calebite.
Kombo na ye ezalaki « Nabali, » mpe kombo ya mwasi na ye ezalaki « Abigayili. » Abigayili azalaki mwasi ya mayele mpe ya kitoko; kasi mobali na ye, moto ya etuka Kalebi, azalaki motema makasi mpe moto mabe.
4 David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
Wana Davidi azali kati na esobe, ayokaki ete Nabali azali kokata bameme na ye bapwale.
5 So David sent ten young men, and said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
Davidi atindaki bilenge mibali zomi, alobaki na bango: « Bokende na Karimeli epai ya Nabali mpe bopesa ye mbote na kombo na ngai.
6 Thus you are to say to my brother, 'Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.
Boyebisa ye: ‹ Tika ete bomoi molayi epesamela yo! Tika ete kimia ezala na yo, na libota na yo mpe na nyonso oyo ezali ya yo!
7 And now, look, I have heard that you have shearers. Now your shepherds have been with us in the wilderness, and we did not hurt them, neither was there anything missing from them, all the while they were in Carmel.
Nayoki ete bazali kokata bameme bapwale epai na yo. Nzokande, tango nyonso oyo babateli bibwele na yo bazalaki elongo na biso na Karimeli, tosalaki bango mabe ata moko te, mpe babungisaki ata eloko moko te.
8 Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes; for we come in a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand, to your servants, and to your son David.'"
Tuna basali na yo, bakoyebisa yo. Boye, tika ete bilenge mibali na ngai bazwa ngolu na miso na yo, lokola tokomi epai na yo na mokolo ya feti! Nabondeli yo, pesa na basali na yo mpe na Davidi, mwana na yo ya mobali, eloko nyonso oyo okokoka kozwa mpo na bango. › »
9 So the young men came and spoke to Nabal according to all those words on David's behalf, but he behaved arrogantly.
Tango bilenge mibali ya Davidi bakomaki epai ya Nabali, bayebisaki ye makambo oyo nyonso na kombo ya Davidi, mpe bazelaki.
10 Nabal answered David's servants, and said, "Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.
Kasi Nabali azongiselaki basali ya Davidi: « Davidi azali nani? Mwana mobali ya Izayi azali nani? Mikolo oyo, basali ebele bazali kokima bankolo na bango.
11 Shall I then take my bread, and my wine, and my meat that I have slaughtered for the shearers of my sheep, and give it to men who I do not know where they come from?"
Mpo na nini nakamata mapa na ngai, mayi na ngai mpe mosuni, oyo nabongisi mpo na bato na ngai, oyo bakataka bapwale, mpo na kopesa yango epai ya bato oyo nayebi kutu epai bawuti te? »
12 So David's young men turned on their way, and went back, and came and told him according to all these words.
Bilenge mibali ya Davidi babalukaki mpe bazongaki. Tango bakomaki, bayebisaki Davidi makambo oyo Nabali alobaki.
13 David said to his men, "Every man put on his sword." So every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David; and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
Davidi alobaki na basoda na ye: « Tika ete moko na moko atia mopanga na ye na loketo. » Boye, batiaki mipanga na bango na loketo, mpe Davidi atiaki mpe oyo ya ye. Bato pene nkama minei bakendeki elongo na Davidi, mpe bato nkama mibale batikalaki mpo na kobatela biloko.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, "Look, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he railed at them.
Moko kati na basali ya Nabali alobaki na Abigayili, mwasi ya Nabali: « Davidi atindaki bantoma wuta na esobe mpo na kopambola nkolo na biso, kasi ye atombokelaki bango.
15 But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, nor did we miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.
Nzokande bato yango basalelaki biso penza bolamu, basalaki biso mabe ata moko te, mpe, tango nyonso totambolaki elongo na bango na zamba, tobungisaki ata eloko moko te.
16 They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
Butu mpe moyi, tango nyonso tozalaki koleisa bibwele na biso pene na bango, bazalaki lokola mir zingazinga na biso.
17 Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a worthless fellow that one can't speak to him."
Sik’oyo, yeba kokanisa mpo na yango mpe tala eloko nini osengeli kosala, pamba te mokano ya koboma nkolo na biso mpe libota na ye mobimba esili kozwama. Nkolo na biso azali moto mabe koleka, boye moto moko te akoki kosolola na ye. »
18 Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two bottles of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five measures of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
Abigayili asalaki na lombangu, azwaki mapa nkama mibale, bambeki mibale ya vino, bameme batumba mitano, bakilo tuku motoba na mibale na bagrame nkama mitano ya ble bakalinga, maboke nkama moko ya bambuma ya vino ekawuka mpe bagato nkama mibale basala na bambuma ya figi; mpe atiaki yango na likolo ya ba-ane.
19 She said to her young men, "Go on before me. Look, I come after you." But she did not tell her husband.
Bongo alobaki na basali na ye: « Bokende liboso na ngai, nazali kolanda bino. » Kasi ayebisaki mobali na ye, Nabali, te.
20 It was so, as she rode on her donkey, and came down by the covert of the mountain, that look, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.
Wana Abigayili azalaki na likolo ya ane, azalaki kokita sima na ngomba. Na tango yango kaka, Davidi mpe bato na ye bazalaki mpe kokita na ngambo epai wapi Abigayili azalaki, mpe akutanaki na bango.
21 Now David had said, "Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.
Davidi awutaki komilobela: « Ezalaki na pamba nde nabatelaki biloko nyonso ya moto oyo kati na esobe mpo ete eloko moko te ebunga kati na biloko na ye nyonso! Azongiseli ngai mabe na esika ya bolamu oyo nasalelaki ye!
22 God do so to David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."
Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai Davidi etumbu ya makasi soki, kino lobi na tongo, natiki na bomoi mobali moko kati na bato nyonso oyo bazali ya Nabali! »
23 When Abigail saw David, she hurried, and got off from her donkey, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground at his feet.
Tango Abigayili amonaki Davidi, akitaki na lombangu wuta na ane na ye mpe agumbamaki na liboso ya Davidi, elongi kino na mabele.
24 And she said, "On me, my lord, be the guilt; and please let your servant speak to you directly, and hear the words of your servant.
Akweyaki na makolo ya Davidi mpe alobaki: — Oh nkolo na ngai, tika ete mbeba ezala kaka na moto na ngai! Nabondeli yo, tika ete mwasi mosali na yo asolola na yo! Yoka makambo oyo mwasi mosali na yo alingi koyebisa yo.
25 Please do not let my lord regard this worthless fellow, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, did not see the young men whom you sent.
Tika ete nkolo na ngai atala te Nabali, mobali oyo ya mabe, pamba te azali penza ndenge kombo na ye ezali; kombo na ye ezali Nabali, mpe elingi koloba: moto ya liboma. Mpe liboma ezali penza kotambola elongo na ye. Ngai mwasi mosali na yo, namonaki te bilenge mibali oyo mokonzi na ngai atindaki.
26 Now therefore, my lord, as YHWH lives, and as your soul lives, since YHWH has withheld you from blood guiltiness, and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies, and those who seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
Sik’oyo, nkolo na ngai, na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, lokola Yawe apesi yo nzela te ya koboma mpe ya kozongisa yo moko mabe na mabe, tika ete banguna na yo mpe bato nyonso oyo bazali makasi ya kosala mabe epai ya nkolo na ngai bazala lokola Nabali.
27 Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.
Mpe tika ete bakado oyo mwasi mosali na yo amemeli nkolo na ngai epesamela mibali oyo bazali kolanda yo.
28 Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For YHWH will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the battles of YHWH; and evil shall not be found in you all your days.
Nabondeli yo, limbisa mabe ya mwasi mosali na yo. Yawe akosala penza ete libota ya nkolo na ngai ewumela tango nyonso na bokonzi, pamba te obundaka bitumba ya Yawe. Tika ete, tango nyonso okozala na bomoi, mabe ata moko te emonana kati na yo.
29 Though men may rise up to pursue you, and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with YHWH your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies, as from the hollow of a sling.
Ezala soki moto moko atelemi mpo na kolanda yo to mpo na koboma yo, Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akobatela malamu bomoi ya nkolo na ngai kati na bato ya bomoi, kasi akobwaka banguna na yo mosika lokola na ebambelo mabanga.
30 It shall come to pass, when YHWH has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and shall have appointed you prince over Israel,
Tango Yawe akokokisela nkolo na ngai bolamu nyonso oyo alakaki yo mpe akokomisa yo mokambi ya Isalaele,
31 that this will have no cause of grief or a troubled conscience for my lord, that blood was shed without cause and that my lord has gained victory by his own hand. And when YHWH has done well with my lord, then remember your servant."
nkolo na ngai akoyoka mawa te na motema na ye mpe akomitungisa te na makanisi mpo ete asopaki makila na pamba mpe azongisaki ye moko mabe na mabe. Bongo tango Yawe akosalela nkolo na ngai bolamu, okokanisela mwasi mosali na yo.
32 David said to Abigail, "Blessed is YHWH, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me.
Davidi azongiselaki Abigayili: — Tika ete apambolama, Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo atindi yo kokutana na ngai na mokolo ya lelo!
33 Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, that have kept me this day from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.
Tika ete mayele na yo epambolama! Tika ete yo moko mpe opambolama mpo ete opesi ngai nzela te ya koboma mpe ya kozongisa ngai moko mabe na mabe!
34 For indeed, as YHWH, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn't have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."
Nzokande, na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo apesi ngai nzela te ya kosala yo mabe, soki oyaki noki te mpo na kokutana na ngai, mobali moko te kati na ndako ya Nabali alingaki kotikala na bomoi kino lobi na tongo.
35 So David received of her hand that which she had brought him: and he said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. Look, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request."
Boye Davidi azwaki bakado oyo Abigayili amemelaki ye mpe alobaki: — Zonga epai na yo na kimia. Nayoki maloba na yo mpe nakosala ndenge osengi ngai.
36 Abigail came to Nabal; and look, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
Tango Abigayili akomaki epai ya Nabali, akutaki Nabali azali kosala feti kati na ndako na ye ndenge penza mokonzi asalaka yango. Azalaki na loyenge mpe alangwaki makasi. Boye Abigayili ayebisaki ye eloko te kino na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki.
37 It happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
Kasi na tongo, lokola milangwa na ye esilaki, mwasi na ye ayebisaki ye makambo nyonso oyo elekaki. Nabali ayokaki pasi na motema mpe akangamaki lokola libanga.
38 It happened about ten days after, that YHWH struck Nabal, so that he died.
Sima na mikolo zomi, Yawe abetaki Nabali, mpe akufaki.
39 And David heard, and he said, "Blessed is YHWH, who has taken my side in the matter of Nabal's insult, and has kept back his servant from evil. YHWH has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head." David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to him as wife.
Tango Davidi ayokaki ete Nabali akufi, alobaki: « Tika ete apambolama, Yawe oyo akoti likambo na ngai na ndenge Nabali atiolaki ngai! Apesi te na mosali na Ye nzela ya kosala mabe, kasi akweyisi mabe ya Nabali na moto na ye moko! » Bongo Davidi atindaki maloba epai ya Abigayili mpo na kosenga ye ete akoma mwasi na ye.
40 When the servants of David had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, "David has sent us to you, to take you to be his wife."
Basali ya Davidi bakendeki na Karimeli mpe balobaki na Abigayili: — Davidi atindi biso epai na yo mpo ete toya kozwa yo mpo okoma mwasi na ye.
41 She got up and bowed herself with her face to the ground, and said, "Look, your servant is a lowly servant to wash the feet of your servants."
Abigayili agumbamaki elongi kino na mabele mpe alobaki: — Mwasi mosali na yo, ye oyo! Abongami mpo na kosalela bino mpe mpo na kosukola makolo ya basali ya nkolo na ngai.
42 Then Abigail got up quickly and rode on a donkey, and with five female servants following her; and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Abigayili amataki na ane na lombangu mpe akendeki nzela moko na bantoma ya Davidi elongo na basali na ye mitano ya basi. Mpe akomaki mwasi ya Davidi.
43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.
Davidi abalaki lisusu Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli; mpe bango mibale bakomaki basi na ye.
44 Now Saul had given Mikal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
Kasi Saulo abalisaki Mikali, mwana na ye ya mwasi, oyo azalaki mwasi ya Davidi, epai ya Paliti, mwana mobali ya Laishi, moto na Galimi.
