< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, Go, number Israel and Judah.
Yawe asikelaki lisusu bato ya Isalaele mpe atindikaki Davidi na kosala makambo oyo ekomemisa bango ngambo; alobaki na Davidi: « Kende kotanga motango ya bato ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda. »
2 And the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now to and fro through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the sum of the people.
Boye, mokonzi apesaki mitindo na Joabi, mokonzi ya mampinga, oyo azalaki elongo na ye: — Tambola na mabota nyonso ya Isalaele, longwa na Dani kino na Beri-Sheba, mpe tanga bato mpo ete nayeba motango na bango.
3 And Joab said unto the king, Now the LORD thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
Kasi Joabi azongiselaki mokonzi: — Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akomisa bato ebele koleka mbala nkama, mpe ete yo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, omona yango na miso na yo! Kasi mpo na nini mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, alingi kosala likambo ya boye?
4 Notwithstanding the king’s word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
Kasi mokonzi atingamaki kaka na mitindo oyo apesaki na Joabi mpe na bakonzi ya mampinga. Boye, balongwaki liboso ya mokonzi mpe bakendeki kotanga bato ya Isalaele.
5 And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad, and unto Jazer.
Bakatisaki Yordani mpe babandaki na kotanga bato ya engumba Aroeri, na sude ya engumba oyo ezali kati na lubwaku. Bakatisaki lisusu etuka ya Gadi na nzela oyo ekenda na Yaezeri.
6 then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and they came to Dan-jaan, and round about to Zidon,
Longwa kuna, balekaki na etuka ya Galadi mpe ya Tayitimi-Odishi kino bakomaki na Dani Yaani mpe zingazinga ya Sidoni.
7 and came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beer-sheba.
Bakendeki na ndako batonga makasi ya Tiri mpe na bingumba nyonso ya bato ya Evi mpe ya Kanana; bongo bakomaki na sude ya etuka ya Yuda, na Beri-Sheba.
8 So when they had gone to and fro through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Boye batambolaki mboka mobimba, mpe bazongaki na Yelusalemi sima na basanza libwa mpe mikolo tuku mibale.
9 And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
Joabi ayebisaki mokonzi motango ya bato oyo atangaki, bato oyo bakoki kosalela mopanga na bitumba: bato nkoto nkama mwambe kati na Isalaele, mpe nkoto nkama mitano kati na Yuda.
10 And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: but now, O LORD, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
Sima na Davidi kotanga bato, asosolaki ete amemi ngambo. Bongo Davidi alobaki na Yawe: — Nasali lisumu monene na kotanga bato. Sik’oyo, nabondeli Yo, oh Yawe, limbisa mabe ya mosali na Yo; pamba te nasali makambo lokola moto ya liboma.
11 And when David rose up in the morning, the word of the LORD came unto the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, tango Davidi alamukaki, Yawe alobaki na mosakoli Gadi, mopesi toli ya mokonzi:
12 Go and speak unto David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
— Kende koyebisa Davidi: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nazali kotalisa yo bitumbu misato; pona moko kati na yango mpo ete Ngai nakokisa yango lokola etumbu mpo na yo. › »
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thy foes while they pursue thee? or shall there be three days pestilence in thy land? now advise thee, and consider what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
Gadi akendeki koyebisa Davidi makambo oyo Yawe alobaki na ye: — Oponi etumbu nini mpo ete Ngai Yawe nakokisa yango mpo na yo: mibu sambo ya nzala makasi kati na mokili na yo; sanza misato oyo okokima liboso ya banguna na yo, oyo bakolanda yo; to mikolo misato ya bokono oyo ebomaka kati na mokili na yo? Kanisa sik’oyo malamu mpe yebisa ngai eyano oyo ngai nasengeli komema epai na Ye oyo atindi ngai.
14 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
Davidi azongiselaki Gadi: — Nazali na pasi makasi na motema. Eleki malamu mpo na ngai kokweya na maboko ya Yawe, pamba te mawa na Ye ezali solo monene; kasi tika ete nakweya te na maboko ya bato.
15 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.
Boye, Yawe atindaki kati na Isalaele bokono oyo ebomaka, wuta na tongo kaka wana kino na ngonga oyo akataki; mpe longwa na Dani kino na Beri-Sheba, bato nkoto tuku sambo bakufaki.
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough; now stay thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Lokola anjelu atandaki loboko na ye na likolo ya Yelusalemi mpo na kobebisa yango, Yawe atalaki mpe ayokaki mawa mpo na pasi wana. Alobaki na anjelu oyo azalaki kobebisa: « Ekoki! Longola loboko na yo! » Nzokande, na tango wana, anjelu na Yawe atelemaki pembeni ya etando ya Orina, moto ya Yebusi, kati na likolo mpe mabele, mpe asimbaki mopanga ezanga ebombelo.
17 And David spake unto the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done perversely: but these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’s house.
Wana Davidi atombolaki miso mpe amonaki anjelu na Yawe koboma bato, alobaki na Yawe: « Ngai nde nasalaki masumu, ngai nde nasalaki mbeba; bango, bato ya ekolo na ngai, basali mabe moko te; boye, ebongi nde opesa ngai mpe libota na ngai etumbu! »
18 And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Kaka na mokolo yango, Gadi akendeki epai ya Davidi mpe alobaki na ye: — Kende kotonga etumbelo mpo na Yawe, na etando ya Orina, moto ya Yebusi.
19 And David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.
Davidi akendeki kuna kolanda liloba oyo Gadi alobaki na Kombo na Yawe.
20 And Araunah looked forth, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Tango Orina atalaki mpe amonaki mokonzi elongo na bakalaka na ye koya epai na ye, abimaki mpe agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi, elongi kino na mabele.
21 And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar unto the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
Orina atunaki mokonzi: — Mpo na nini mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, ayei epai ya mosali na ye? Davidi azongisaki: — Nayei kosomba etando oyo mpo ete natonga awa etumbelo mpo na Yawe; na bongo, bokono oyo ezali koboma bato ekosila.
22 And Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him: behold, the oxen for the burnt offering, and the threshing instruments and the furniture of the oxen for the wood:
Orina azongiselaki Davidi: — Tika ete mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akamata na ye lopango yango mpe abonza kuna mbeka oyo amoni ete ezali malamu mpo na Yawe. Tala bangombe ya mibali oyo ekosunga mpo na mbeka ya kotumba, mabaya ya bashario mpe bikangiseli oyo ekosunga mpo na kopelisa moto.
23 all this, O king, doth Araunah give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.
Oh mokonzi, napesi yo nyonso! Orina alobaki lisusu na mokonzi: — Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ayamba malamu bambeka na yo!
24 And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will verily buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God which cost me nothing. So David bought the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Kasi mokonzi alobaki na Orina: — Te! Nasengeli kaka kosomba yango mpe kopesa yo motuya oyo ekoki na yango; naboyi kobonzela Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, bambeka ya kotumba oyo nazwi na ofele. Boye, Davidi asombaki etando mpe bangombe yango, na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, tuku mitano.
25 And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
Davidi atongaki kuna etumbelo mpo na Yawe mpe abonzaki bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani. Yawe ayokelaki mboka mawa, mpe bokono oyo ezalaki koboma elongwaki na Isalaele.
