1 Chronicles 19
1 And it came to pass, after this, that Nahash king of the sons of Ammon died, —and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
Sima na mwa tango, Naashi, mokonzi ya bato ya Amoni, akufaki, mpe mwana na ye ya mobali akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
2 Then said David—I will show lovingkindness unto Hanun, son of Nahash, —for his father shewed unto me lovingkindness. So David sent messengers to console him concerning his father, —and the servants of David came into the land of the sons of Ammon unto Hanun, to console him.
Davidi amilobelaki: « Nakotalisa bolamu epai ya Anuni, mwana mobali ya Naashi, pamba te tata na ye atalisaki ngai bolamu. » Boye Davidi atindaki bato epai ya Anuni mpo na kobondisa ye na tina na kufa ya tata na ye. Tango basali ya Davidi bakomaki epai ya Anuni, na mokili ya bato ya Amoni, mpo na kobondisa ye,
3 Then said the rulers of the sons of Ammon unto Hanun, Doth David honour thy father in thine eyes, that he hath sent to thee comforters? Is it not, for the sake of exploring and overthrowing, and spying out the land, that his servants have come to thee?
bakambi ya bato ya Amoni balobaki na Anuni: « Okanisi ete ezali mpo na kopesa tata na yo lokumu nde Davidi atindi bato mpo na kobondisa yo? Bato wana bayei epai na yo mpo na kotala mpe kononga mokili mpo ete babebisa yango. »
4 So Hanun took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off their upper garments in the middle, as far as their parts of shame, —and let them go.
Boye, Anuni akangaki basali ya Davidi, akataki bango mandefu, akataki bango bilamba kino na likolo ya mipende mpe abenganaki bango.
5 And people went and told David, concerning the men, so he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed, —and the king said—Tarry at Jericho, until your beards be grown, and then return.
Tango bayebisaki Davidi makambo oyo ekweyelaki bato wana, atindaki bato mosusu mpo na kokende kokutana na bango, pamba te basambwisaki bango makasi. Mokonzi atindelaki bango maloba oyo: « Bovanda na Jeriko kino mandefu na bino ekobota, sima nde bokozonga. »
6 And, when the sons of Ammon saw, that they had made themselves odious with David, Hanun and the sons of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver, to hire for themselves—out of Mesopotamia, and out of Aram-maacah, and out of Zobah, —chariots, and horsemen.
Tango bato ya Amoni bamonaki ete bamilukeli makambo epai ya Davidi, Anuni mpe bato ya Amoni batindaki bakilo ya palata nkoto tuku misato epai ya bato ya Siri ya Mezopotami, ya Maaka mpe ya Tsoba, mpo na kodefa bashar mpe basoda oyo babundaka bitumba likolo ya bampunda.
7 So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah, and his people, who came and pitched before Medeba, —and the sons of Ammon gathered themselves together out of their cities, and entered into the war.
Badefaki bashar, basoda nkoto tuku misato na mibale oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda, mpe mokonzi ya Maaka elongo na mampinga na ye. Bongo, bayaki kotonga molako na bango pembeni ya Medeba. Kaka na tango yango, bato ya Amoni basanganaki na engumba na bango mpe babimaki mpo na kobunda.
8 Now, when David heard, he sent Joab and all the army of heroes.
Tango kaka Davidi ayokaki bongo, atindaki Joabi elongo na mampinga nyonso ya basoda ya mpiko.
9 And the sons of Ammon came out, and set in array for the battle, at the opening of the city, —whereas, the kings who had come, were by themselves, in the field.
Bato ya Amoni babimaki mpe batandamaki na milongo mpo na bitumba, na ekuke ya engumba na bango; kasi bakonzi oyo bayaki bazalaki na esika mosusu, kati na zamba.
10 So, when Joab saw that the battle confronted him, before and behind, —he chose out of all the choice in Israel, and set in array to meet the Syrians;
Tango Joabi amonaki ete milongo ya bitumba ezali na liboso mpe na sima na ye, aponaki basoda ya Isalaele, oyo baleki na mpiko mpe atiaki bango na milongo mpo na kobundisa bato ya Siri.
11 and, the rest of the people, delivered he into the hand of Abishai his brother, —and they set in array, to meet the sons of Ammon.
Atiaki basoda oyo batikalaki na se ya bokonzi ya ndeko na ye ya mobali, Abishayi; mpe atandaki bango na milongo ya bitumba mpo na kobundisa bato ya Amoni.
12 And he said—If, too strong for me, be the Syrians, then shalt thou come to my help, —but, if, the sons of Ammon, be too strong for thee, then will I help thee.
Joabi alobaki: « Soki bato ya Siri baleki ngai na makasi, yo okoya kosunga ngai; kasi soki bato ya Amoni baleki yo na makasi, wana ngai nakosunga yo.
13 Be strong, and let us put forth our strength, for the sake of our people, and for the sake of the cities of our God, —and let, Yahweh, do, what is good in his own eyes.
Yika mpiko, mpe tobunda lokola bilombe mpo na bato na biso mpe mpo na bingumba ya Nzambe na biso. Tika ete Yawe asala oyo ezali malamu na miso na Ye. »
14 Then did Joab, and all the people who were with him, draw near before the Syrians unto the battle, —and they fled from before him.
Boye, Joabi mpe basoda oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bapusanaki mpo na kobundisa bato ya Siri; mpe bato yango ya Siri bakimaki liboso na ye.
15 And, when, the sons of Ammon, saw that the Syrians had fled, then fled, they also, from before Abishai his brother, and entered the city, —and Joab came to Jerusalem.
Tango bato ya Amoni bamonaki bato ya Siri kokima, bango mpe bakimaki liboso ya Abishayi, ndeko mobali ya Joabi, mpe bazongaki na engumba. Bongo, Joabi azongaki na Yelusalemi.
16 And when the Syrians saw that they had been defeated before Israel, then sent they messengers, and brought out the Syrians who were Beyond the River, —with Shophach captain of the army of Hadarezer, before them.
Tango bato ya Siri bamonaki ete Isalaele alongi bango, batindaki bantoma kobenga bato mosusu ya Siri oyo bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale Efrate. Tsofaki, mokonzi ya mampinga ya Adadezeri, azalaki liboso na bango.
17 And it was told David, and he gathered together all Israel, and crossed the Jordan, and came unto them, and set in array against them, —and, when David had set in array against the Syrians for battle, they fought with him.
Tango Davidi azwaki sango yango, asangisaki bato nyonso ya Isalaele mpe akatisaki Yordani; apusanaki mpe asalaki molongo ya bitumba liboso na bango ya bato ya Siri, mpe bato ya Siri babundisaki ye.
18 And the Syrians fled from before Israel, and David slew of the Syrians [the men of] seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, —and, Shophach captain of the army, he put to death.
Kasi bato ya Siri bakimaki liboso ya Isalaele, mpe Davidi abomaki basoda na bango, nkoto sambo oyo babundaka bitumba likolo ya bampunda mpe basoda nkoto tuku minei oyo babundaka bitumba na makolo. Davidi abomaki lisusu Tsofaki, mokonzi na bango ya mampinga.
19 And, when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with David and served him, —neither would the Syrians help the sons of Ammon any more.
Tango bawumbu ya Adadezeri bamonaki ete Isalaele alongi bango, basalaki kimia elongo na Davidi mpe bakomaki na se ya bokonzi na ye. Boye bato ya Siri balingaki lisusu te kosunga bato ya Amoni.
