2 Samuel 4
1 And when [Ish-bosheth], Saul’s son, heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Tango Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, ayokaki ete Abineri akufi na Ebron, alembaki nzoto, mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bakomaki na somo makasi.
2 And [Ish-bosheth], Saul’s son, [had] two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also is reckoned to Benjamin:
Nzokande mwana mobali ya Saulo azalaki na bato mibale oyo bazalaki bakonzi ya mampinga: moko, kombo na ye ezalaki « Baana; » mpe mosusu, « Rekabi. » Bazalaki bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti, kati na bato ya ekolo ya Benjame. Beyeroti ezalaki eteni ya mabele ya Benjame,
3 and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and have been sojourners there until this day.)
pamba te bato ya Beyeroti bakimelaki na Gitayimi mpe bavandaki kuna lokola bapaya kino na mokolo ya lelo.
4 Now Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Saulo, azalaki na mwana mobali moko oyo azalaki na mbeba na makolo nyonso mibale. Wana azalaki nanu na mibu mitano ya mbotama, sango kowuta na Jizireyeli na tina na Saulo mpe Jonatan ekomaki. Boye mama mobokoli na ye akamataki ye mpo na kokima. Kasi lokola akimaki na lombangu, mwana akweyaki mpe akomaki na mbeba na makolo nyonso mibale. Kombo na ye ezalaki « Mefibosheti. »
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ish-bosheth, as he took his rest at noon.
Rekabi mpe Baana, bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti, bakendeki na ndako ya Ishi-Bosheti mpe bakomaki kuna na ngonga ya midi, wana azalaki kolala mpo na kopema.
6 And they came thither into the midst of the house, as though they would have fetched wheat; and they smote him in the belly: and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
Bakotaki kati na ndako lokola nde bakei kozwa ble, wana Ishi-Bosheti azalaki ya kolala na mbeto na ye kati na shambre, batubaki ye mbeli na libumu, babomaki ye mpe bakataki ye moto; bongo bazwaki moto yango, bakimaki mpe batambolaki na yango butu mobimba na nzela oyo ekenda na etando ya Araba. Rekabi mpe Baana, ndeko na ye ya mobali, bakimaki.
7 Now when they came into the house, as he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him, and took his head, and went by the way of the Arabah all night.
8 And they brought the head of Ish-bosheth unto David to Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ish-bosheth the son of Saul thine enemy, which sought thy life; and the LORD hath avenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.
Bamemaki moto ya Ishi-Bosheti epai ya Davidi, na Ebron, mpe balobaki na mokonzi: — Tala moto ya Ishi-Bosheti, mwana mobali ya Saulo, monguna na yo, oyo alukaki koboma yo. Na mokolo ya lelo, Yawe azongisi mpo na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, mabe na mabe epai ya Saulo mpe bakitani na ye.
9 And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the LORD liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Davidi azongiselaki Rekabi mpe Baana, ndeko na ye ya mobali, bana mibali ya Rimoni, moto ya Beyeroti: — Na Kombo na Yawe oyo akangoli ngai na pasi nyonso
10 when one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his tidings.
tango moto moko ayebisaki ngai ete Saulo akufi, wana akanisaki ete amemeli ngai sango malamu. Nakangaki ye mpe nabomaki ye, na Tsikilagi. Ezalaki lifuti oyo napesaki ye mpo na sango na ye.
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed, shall I not now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?
Bongo sik’oyo, tango bato mabe babomi moto oyo ayebi na ye likambo te kati na ndako na ye moko mpe na mbeto na ye moko, nasengeli te kosenga makila na ye na maboko na bino mpe kolimwisa bino na mokili?
12 And David commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth, and buried it in the grave of Abner in Hebron.
Boye Davidi apesaki mitindo; mpe bato na ye babomaki bango, bakataki bango maboko mpe makolo mpe badiembikaki bango pembeni ya liziba ya Ebron. Bazwaki moto ya Ishi-Bosheti mpe bakundaki yango kati na kunda ya Abineri, na Ebron.
