2 Samuel 3
1 Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David. But David grew stronger and stronger, while the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker.
Bitumba kati na libota ya Saulo mpe libota ya Davidi ewumelaki tango molayi. Wana makasi ya Davidi ezalaki komata se komata, makasi ya libota ya Saulo ezalaki kaka kokita.
2 Now sons were born to David in Hebron. And his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam of Jezreel;
Tala bana mibali ya Davidi oyo babotamaki na Ebron: Mwana ya liboso ezalaki Aminoni oyo Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli, abotelaki ye;
3 and his second, Daluiah, of Abigail of Carmel; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;
ya mibale, Kileabi oyo Abigayili oyo akufisaki mobali na ye ya liboso, Nabali, moto ya Karimeli, abotelaki ye; ya misato, Abisalomi oyo Maaka, mwana ya Talimayi, mokonzi ya Geshuri, abotelaki ye;
4 and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah, of Abital;
ya minei, Adoniya oyo Agite abotelaki ye; ya mitano, Shefatia oyo Abitali abotelaki ye;
5 and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah, David's wife. These were born to David in Hebron.
ya motoba, Yitileami oyo Egila, mwasi ya Davidi, abotelaki ye. Bango nde bana mibali ya Davidi oyo babotamaki na Ebron.
6 And it came about while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner was gaining power in the house of Saul.
Na tango ya bitumba kati na mabota ya Saulo mpe ya Davidi, Abineri azalaki kolendisa nguya na ye kati na ndako ya Saulo.
7 Now Saul had a secondary wife, Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbaal son of Saul said to Abner, "Why have you gone in to my father's secondary wife?"
Nzokande, Saulo azalaki na makangu moko; kombo na ye ezalaki « Ritsipa, » mwana mwasi ya Aya. Bongo Ishi-Bosheti alobaki na Abineri: — Mpo na nini osangisi nzoto na makangu ya tata na ngai?
8 Then Abner was very angry over the words of Ishbaal, and said, "Am I a dog's head? Until today, is it for myself that I have been doing all these things, showing loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David? And yet you charge me this day with a fault concerning this woman.
Tango Abineri ayokaki makambo oyo Ishi-Bosheti alobaki, asilikaki makasi mpe azongisaki: — Boni! Ngai nazali moto ya mbwa na ngambo ya bato ya Yuda? Ngai oyo, na mokolo ya lelo, nazali kosalela bosembo epai ya libota ya Saulo, tata na yo, epai ya bandeko na ye mpe epai ya baninga na ye; ngai oyo nakabaki yo te na maboko ya Davidi, ngai nde sik’oyo ozali kofunda ete nasali mabe na tina na mwasi oyo!
9 God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as YHWH has sworn to David, I do not do even so to him;
Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai Abineri etumbu ya makasi soki nasali te mpo na Davidi makambo oyo Yawe alakaki ye, na nzela ya ndayi,
10 to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba."
ete akolongola bokonzi na ndako ya Saulo mpe akotia kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi kati na Isalaele mpe kati na Yuda, longwa na Dani kino na Beri-Sheba.
11 And Ishbaal could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.
Ishi-Bosheti akokaki kozongisa ata liloba moko te epai ya Abineri, pamba te azalaki kobanga ye.
12 Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, "Whose is the land?" and saying, "Make an agreement with me, and look, my hand shall be with you, to bring all Israel around to you."
Abineri atindaki bantoma koloba na Davidi: — Mokili oyo ezali ya nani? Sala boyokani elongo na ngai, bongo ngai nakosunga yo mpo na kosangisa Isalaele mobimba epai na yo.
13 He said, "Good. I will make a covenant with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you shall not see my face unless you first bring Mikal, Saul's daughter, when you come to see my face."
Davidi azongisaki: — Malamu! Nandimi kosala boyokani elongo na yo, kasi nasengi yo eloko moko: koya liboso na ngai te soki otindeli ngai nanu te Mikali, mwana mwasi ya Saulo, tango okoya kokutana na ngai.
14 David sent messengers to Ishbaal, Saul's son, saying, "Give me my wife Mikal, whom I betrothed to myself for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines."
Bongo Davidi atindaki bantoma koloba na Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo: — Pesa ngai mwasi na ngai, Mikali, oyo nabalaki ngai moko na motuya ya bangenga nkama moko ya bato ya Filisitia.
15 Ishbaal sent and took her from her husband Paltiel the son of Laish.
Boye Ishi-Bosheti atindaki bato kozwa Mikali epai ya mobali na ye, Palitieli, mwana mobali ya Laishi.
16 But her husband went with her, weeping behind her, as far as Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, "Go back." So he went back.
Mobali na ye alandaki ye na kolela kino na Bawurimi. Kasi Abineri alobaki na mobali yango: — Zonga na ndako na yo. Mpe mobali azongaki.
17 Abner advised the elders of Israel, saying, "For some time you have wanted David to be king over you.
Abineri asololaki na bampaka ya Isalaele mpe alobaki na bango: — Lokola wuta kala bolingaka ete Davidi akoma mokonzi na bino,
18 Now then do it, for YHWH has spoken of David, saying, 'By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.'"
bosala yango sik’oyo; pamba te Yawe alobaki boye na tina na ye: « Ezali na nzela ya Davidi, mosali na ngai, nde nakobikisa bato na Ngai, Isalaele, na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya banguna na bango nyonso. »
19 And Abner also spoke privately to the sons of Benjamin. And Abner also spoke privately to David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and to the whole house of Benjamin.
Sima na Abineri koloba likambo yango epai ya bato ya libota ya Benjame, akendeki na Ebron mpo na koyebisa Davidi makambo nyonso oyo bato ya Isalaele mpe libota mobimba ya Benjame babongisaki.
20 So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. David made Abner and the men who were with him a feast.
Mpe tango Abineri elongo na bato na ye, tuku mibale, bakomaki epai ya Davidi, na Ebron, Davidi asaliselaki bango feti.
21 Abner said to David, "I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your soul desires." David sent Abner away; and he left in peace.
Abineri alobaki na Davidi: — Na ndingisa na yo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, nalingi kokende sik’oyo kosangisela yo bato nyonso ya Isalaele mpo ete basala boyokani elongo na yo; mpe na bongo, yo okokonza na bisika nyonso oyo olingi. Davidi atikaki Abineri kokende, mpe Abineri azongaki na kimia.
22 Look, the servants of David and Joab were returning from a raid, and brought in a great spoil with them. But Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he left in peace.
Sima na mwa tango, basali ya Davidi mpe Joabi bazongaki wuta na bitumba mpe bamemaki bomengo ebele ya bitumba. Abineri azalaki lisusu na Ebron te, epai ya Davidi, pamba te Davidi asilaki kotika ye kokende, mpe azongaki na kimia.
23 When Joab and all the army who was with him had come, they told Joab, saying, "Abner the son of Ner came to David, and he has sent him away, and he left in peace."
Tango kaka Joabi mpe basoda na ye nyonso bakomaki, bayebisaki Joabi: — Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri, ayaki epai ya mokonzi; bongo mokonzi atikaki ye kokende, mpe azongaki na kimia.
24 Then Joab came to the king, and said, "What have you done? Look, Abner came to you. Why is it that you have sent him away? Now he has gone.
Joabi akendeki komona mokonzi mpe alobaki na ye: — Eloko nini oyo osali? Mpo na nini otikaki penza Abineri oyo ayaki epai na yo kokende? Mpe tala sik’oyo, akei!
25 Don't you know the evil ways of Abner the son of Ner? He came to deceive you and to observe your movements and to learn everything that you are doing."
Nzokande oyebi malamu Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri! Soki ayaki epai na yo, ezalaki nde mpo na kokosa yo, mpo na kononga mpe koluka koyeba bisika nyonso oyo otambolaka mpe makambo nyonso oyo osalaka.
26 When Joab had left David, he sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David did not know it.
Sima na Joabi kowuta na ndako ya Davidi, atindaki bantoma mpo ete balanda mpe bakanga Abineri. Mpe wana Davidi ayebaki te, bantoma bazongisaki Abineri wuta na libulu ya mayi ya Sira.
27 When Abner returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into the midst of the gate to speak with him quietly, and struck him there in the abdomen, so that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother.
Tango Abineri azongaki lisusu na Ebron, Joabi abendaki ye na pembeni, na kati-kati ya ekuke ya engumba lokola nde alingi kosolola na ye na nkuku. Mpe kuna, mpo na kozongisa mabe na mabe na tina na makila ya ndeko na ye ya mobali Asaeli, Joabi atubaki Abineri mbeli na libumu, mpe Abineri akufaki.
28 Afterward, when David heard it, he said, "I and my kingdom are guiltless before YHWH now and forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner.
Sima na yango, tango kaka Davidi ayokaki sango ya makambo oyo ewutaki kosalema, alobaki: — Na miso ya Yawe, ngai mpe bokonzi na ngai tozali na ngambo te mpo na libela na tina na makila ya Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri.
29 May it whirl over the head of Joab, and on all his father's house. Let there not fail from the house of Joab one who has an issue, or who is a leper, or who leans on a staff, or who falls by the sword, or who lacks bread."
Tika ete makila na ye etangama na moto ya Joabi mpe ya libota na ye mobimba! Tika ete ndako ya Joabi ezangaka te bato oyo bakobela bokono ya sopisi to bokono ya maba to bato oyo bakotambola na banzete to bato oyo bakokufa na mopanga to bato oyo bakozanga bilei.
30 So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.
Joabi mpe ndeko na ye ya mobali, Abishayi, babomaki Abineri mpo ete abomaki Asaeli, ndeko na bango ya mobali, na bitumba ya Gabaoni.
31 David said to Joab, and to all the people who were with him, "Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner." And King David followed the coffin.
Bongo Davidi alobaki na Joabi mpe na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye: — Bopasola bilamba na bino mpe bolata basaki, bosala matanga liboso ya Abineri. Ye moko mokonzi Davidi atambolaki na sima ya ebembe.
32 They buried Abner in Hebron: and the king lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.
Bakundaki Abineri, na Ebron, mpe mokonzi alelaki makasi na likolo ya kunda ya Abineri. Bato nyonso mpe balelaki.
33 The king lamented for Abner, and said, "Should Abner die as a fool dies?
Bongo mokonzi ayembaki nzembo oyo ya mawa mpo na Abineri: « Esengelaki ete Abineri akufa penza lokola zoba?
34 Your hands were not bound in chains, your feet were not put into fetters. As a man falls before the ruthless, so you fell." All the people wept again over him.
Bakangaki te maboko na yo na basinga, bakangaki te makolo na yo na basheni. Kasi okweyi ndenge bakweyaka liboso ya babomi. » Mpe bato nyonso balelaki ye lisusu makasi
35 Then all the people came to persuade David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying, "God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread, or anything else, until the sun goes down."
mpe basengaki na Davidi ete alia wana moyi ezali nanu. Kasi Davidi alapaki ndayi na maloba oyo: « Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai etumbu oyo eleki makasi soki nameki kolia mapa to eloko mosusu liboso ete moyi elala! »
36 And all the people took notice of it, and it pleased them; just as everything the king did pleased the people.
Bato nyonso bayokaki ndayi yango mpe basepelaki na yango: bazalaki kosepela na makambo nyonso oyo mokonzi azalaki kosala.
37 So all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to kill Abner the son of Ner.
Mpe na mokolo wana, basoda nyonso ya Isalaele mpe Isalaele mobimba bandimaki ete mokonzi ayebaki ata likambo moko te na tina na kufa ya Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri.
38 The king said to his servants, "Do you not realize that a leader and a great man has fallen this day in Israel?
Mokonzi alobaki na basali na ye: « Boni, boyebi na bino ete mokambi moko mpe moto moko ya monene akweyi lelo kati na Isalaele?
39 I am this day weak, though anointed king. And these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too brutal for me. May YHWH reward the evildoer according to his wickedness."
Na mokolo ya lelo, atako bapakola ngai mafuta lokola mokonzi, nazali na makasi te, mpe bana mibali oyo ya Tseruya baleki ngai na makasi. Tika ete Yawe apesa etumbu na moto oyo asali mabe oyo kolanda mabe na ye! »
