1 Kings 1
1 Now, King David, was old, advanced in days, —and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.
Tango mokonzi Davidi akomaki mobange makasi, azalaki lisusu koyoka moto te na nzoto, ezala bafiniki ye bilamba ebele.
2 Wherefore his servants said unto him—Let there be sought for my lord the king, a young woman—a virgin, so shall she stand before the king, that she may become his companion, —and she shall lie in thy bosom, and my lord the king shall get, heat.
Boye, basali ya Davidi balobaki na ye: « Tika ete tolukela mokonzi elenge mwasi moko oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te mpo ete azala pene ya mokonzi, abatela ye mpe alala mbeto moko na ye; mpe mpo ete mokonzi, nkolo na biso, ayoka lisusu moto na nzoto! »
3 So they sought a fair young woman, throughout all the bounds of Israel, —and found Abishag, the Shunammite, and brought her in, unto the king.
Boye, balukaki kati na Isalaele mobimba elenge mwasi moko ya kitoko; bamonaki Abishagi, moto ya mboka Sunami, mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi.
4 Now, the young woman, was exceeding fair, —so she became unto the king a companion, and ministered unto him, but, the king, knew her not.
Elenge mwasi yango azalaki kitoko mingi, akomaki kobatela mokonzi mpe kosalela ye; kasi mokonzi atikalaki te kosangisa na ye nzoto.
5 And, Adonijah son of Haggith, exalted himself, saying—I, will be king. Therefore prepared he for himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
Nzokande, Adoniya, mwana mobali oyo Agite abotelaki Davidi, amilobelaki na motema na ye: « Ngai nde nakozala mokonzi! » Mpo na yango, asombaki bashar, bampunda; mpe basoda tuku mitano mpo ete batambola liboso na ye lokola bakengeli.
6 Now his father had not displeased him all his days, by saying—Why, thus, hast thou done? Moreover also, he, was of exceeding handsome appearance, and, him, did his mother bear, after Absolom.
Nzokande, tata na ye atikalaki kopamela ye ata mokolo moko te mpe kotuna ye: « Mpo na nini ozali kosala boye? » Adoniya azalaki penza kitoko mpe abotamaki sima na Abisalomi.
7 So then he had speech with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, —and they gave help, following Adonijah.
Adoniya asololaki na Joabi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, mpe na Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; mpe bango bandimaki kosunga ye.
8 But, Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.
Kasi Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada; mosakoli Natan, Shimei, Reyi mpe bakengeli ya Davidi baboyaki kosangana na Adoniya.
9 And Adonijah sacrificed sheep and oxen and heifers, near the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel, —and invited all his brethren, sons of the king, and all the men of Judah, servants of the king;
Adoniya abonzaki na libanga ya Zoeleti bambeka ebele ya bameme, ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta, pembeni ya Eyini-Rogeli; abengisaki bandeko na ye nyonso ya mibali, bana mibali ya mokonzi, mpe bato nyonso ya Yuda oyo bazalaki kosala epai ya mokonzi.
10 but, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.
Kasi abengisaki te mosakoli Natan, Benaya, bakengeli ya mokonzi mpe Salomo, ndeko na ye ya mobali.
11 Then spake Nathan unto Bath-sheba mother of Solomon, saying—Hast thou not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith hath become king, and, our lord David, knoweth it not?
Natan atunaki Batisheba, mama ya Salomo: — Boni, oyoki te ete Adoniya, mwana mobali ya Agite, akomi mokonzi; kasi mokonzi Davidi ayebi te?
12 Now, therefore, come; let me give thee counsel, I pray thee, —so shalt thou rescue thine own life, and the life of thy son, Solomon.
Sik’oyo, tika ete napesa yo toli oyo ekobikisa bomoi na yo mpe bomoi ya Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali.
13 Go, and get thee in unto King David, and thou shalt say unto him—Didst not, thou thyself, my lord O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying—Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne? Why, then, hath, Adonijah, become king?
Kota epai ya mokonzi Davidi mpe loba na ye: « Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, olapaki ndayi te liboso na ngai mwasi mowumbu na yo: ‹ Solo, Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi? › Boye mpo na nini Adoniya akomi mokonzi? »
14 Lo! while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I also, will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.
Wana okozala nanu koloba na mokonzi, ngai mpe nakokota mpe nakobeta sete na maloba na yo.
15 So Bath-sheba went in unto the king, into the chamber, now, the king, was very old, —and Abishag the Shunammite, was ministering unto the king.
Batisheba akendeki kotala mokonzi kati na shambre. Mokonzi akomaki mobange makasi, mpe Abishagi, moto ya Sunami, azalaki kobatela ye.
16 And Bath-sheba bowed, and did homage unto the king, —and the king said—What aileth thee?
Batisheba agumbamaki mpe afukamaki liboso ya mokonzi; mpe mokonzi atunaki ye: — Boni, olingi nini?
17 And she said unto him—My lord, thou thyself, didst swear by Yahweh thy God, unto thy handmaid, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall sit upon my throne.
Batisheba azongisaki: — Nkolo na ngai, yo moko olapaki ndayi, liboso na ngai mwasi mowumbu na yo, na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na koloba: « Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai na bokonzi mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi. »
18 But, now, lo! Adonijah, hath become king; now, therefore, my lord, O king, thou knowest it not:
Kasi sik’oyo Adoniya akomi mokonzi; mpe yo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, oyebi yango te!
19 and he hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab general of the army, —but, Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.
Abonzi bambeka ebele ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta, ya bameme; mpe abengisi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi, Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; Joabi, mokonzi ya mampinga ya Isalaele; kasi abengisi te Salomo, mowumbu na yo.
20 Thou, therefore, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel, are upon thee, —to tell them, who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king, after him.
Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, miso ya bato nyonso ya Isalaele ezali kotalela yo mpo na koyeba soki nani akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi sima na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai.
21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, then shall I and my son Solomon be counted, offenders.
Soki te, tango mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akolala elongo na bakoko na ye, bakozwa ngai elongo na Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, lokola babomi.
22 And lo! while yet she was speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet, came in.
Wana Batisheba azalaki nanu koloba na mokonzi, mosakoli Natan akomaki.
23 So they told the king, saying, Lo! Nathan the prophet! And, when he had come in before the king, he bowed himself down to the king with his face to the ground.
Bayebisaki mokonzi: — Tala mosakoli Natan! Mosakoli Natan akendeki liboso ya mokonzi, agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi, elongi kino na se.
24 Then said Nathan—My lord, O king, hast, thou, said, Adonijah, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall sit upon my throne?
Bongo, Natan alobaki: — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai; boni, olobaki ete Adoniya akokitana na yo mpe akovanda na kiti na yo ya bokonzi?
25 For he hath gone down to-day, and hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and the generals of the army, and Abiathar the priest, and, there they are—eating and drinking before him, —and they have said—Long live King Adonijah!
Na mokolo ya lelo, akei kobonza bambeka ebele ya bangombe, ya bana ngombe ya mafuta mpe ya bameme; abengisi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi, bakonzi ya mampinga mpe Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari; bazali kolia mpe komela elongo na ye mpe bazali koloba: « Tika ete mokonzi Adoniya awumela na bomoi! »
26 But, me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.
Kasi abengisi te ngai, mosali na yo; Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, mpe Salomo, mosali na yo.
27 If, of my lord the king, this thing had been brought to pass, then wouldest thou not have made known unto thy servant, who should sit upon the throne of my lord the king, after him?
Boni, ezali solo na mitindo ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, nde likambo oyo esalemi? Nzokande, oyebisaki te na mosali na yo nani akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya nkolo na ngai sima na yo?
28 Then responded King David, and said, Call me Bath-sheba. So she came in before the king, and stood before the king.
Mokonzi Davidi alobaki: — Bobengela ngai Batisheba. Batisheba ayaki pene ya mokonzi mpe atelemaki liboso na ye.
29 And the king sware, and said, —By the life of Yahweh, who hath redeemed my life out of every strait,
Mokonzi alapaki ndayi na maloba oyo: — Na Kombo na Yawe oyo akangolaki ngai na mikakatano nyonso,
30 even as I sware unto thee by Yahweh, God of Israel, saying, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne, in my stead, even so, will I do this day.
nakokokisa solo, na mokolo ya lelo, ndayi oyo nalapaki epai na yo na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Salomo, mwana na yo ya mobali, akokitana na ngai mpe akovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi.
31 Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the ground, and did homage unto the king, —and said—Let my lord, King David, live to times age-abiding!
Batisheba akitisaki elongi na ye kino na se mpe agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi; alobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na ngai, awumela seko na bomoi!
32 Then said King David—Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada. And they came in before the king.
Mokonzi Davidi alobaki: — Bobenga Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan mpe Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada. Tango bayaki liboso ya mokonzi,
33 Then said the king unto them—Take ye with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon the mule which pertaineth unto myself, —and bring him down unto Gihon;
mokonzi alobaki na bango: — Bozwa elongo na bino basali ya mokonzi na bino mpe bomatisa Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, na likolo ya mile na ngai ya mwasi. Bokende elongo na ye na etima ya Giyoni!
34 then shall Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel, —and ye shall blow with the horn, and say—Long live King Solomon!
Kuna, Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe mosakoli Natan bakopakola ye mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi ya Isalaele. Bokobeta kelelo mpe boganga: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo awumela seko na bomoi! »
35 Then shall ye come up after him, and he shall enter, and sit upon my throne, yea, he, shall become king in my stead; even, him, have I charged to become leader, over Israel, and over Judah.
Sima, bokozonga elongo na ye, mpe akoya kovanda na kiti na ngai ya bokonzi. Ye nde akokoma mokonzi na esika na ngai. Nakomisi ye mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda.
36 Then did Benaiah son of Jehoiada make response unto the king, and say—Amen! so, say Yahweh, God of my lord the king.
Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, azongiselaki mokonzi: — Amen! Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, akokisa maloba oyo.
37 As Yahweh hath been with my lord the king, so, let him he with Solomon, —and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord, King David.
Ndenge Yawe azalaki elongo na mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, tika ete azala mpe elongo na Salomo mpe akomisa kiti na ye ya bokonzi monene koleka oyo ya mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na ngai!
38 So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon the mule of King David, —and they escorted him to Gihon.
Boye, Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, bato ya Kereti mpe bato ya Peleti bakendeki, bamatisaki Salomo na likolo ya mile ya mokonzi Davidi mpe bamemaki ye na etima ya Giyoni.
39 Then took Zadok the priest, the horn of oil out of the Tent, and anointed Solomon, —and they blew with a [ram’s] horn, and all the people said, Long live King Solomon!
Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki azwaki liseke ya mafuta, kati na ndako ya kapo ya bule, mpe apakolaki Salomo mafuta. Bongo, babetaki kelelo, mpe bato nyonso bagangaki: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo awumela seko na bomoi! »
40 And all the people came up after him, the people themselves also, playing with flutes, and rejoicing with great joy, —so that the earth rent with the sound of them.
Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bazalaki kobeta baflite mpe kosepela makasi sima na ye; mabele eninganaki na makelele na bango.
41 And Adonijah, and all the guests who were with him, heard it, just as, they, had made an end of eating, —and, when Joab heard the sound of a horn, he said—Wherefore the noise of the city, in tumult?
Adoniya mpe bato nyonso oyo abengisaki mpo ete bazala na ye elongo bayokaki makelele yango wana bazalaki kosilisa kolia. Boye, tango Joabi ayokaki mongongo ya kelelo, atunaki: — Makelele wana kati na engumba elakisi nini?
42 While yet he was speaking, lo! Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest, came in, —and Adonijah said—Come in, for, a worthy man, thou art, and, good tidings, dost thou bring.
Wana azalaki nanu koloba, Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari, akomaki. Adoniya alobaki na ye: — Kota! Moto ya lokumu lokola yo amemaka kaka basango ya malamu.
43 But Jonathan responded and said to Adonijah, —Of a truth, our lord, King David, hath made, Solomon, king.
Jonatan azongiselaki Adoniya: — Ezali bongo te! Mokonzi Davidi, nkolo na biso, akomisi Salomo mokonzi!
44 And the king hath sent with him—Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, —and they have caused him to ride upon the mule of the king;
Mokonzi atindaki elongo na ye Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, mosakoli Natan, Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, bato ya Kereti mpe bato ya Peleti, mpe bamatisi ye na likolo ya mile ya mokonzi.
45 and Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king, in Gihon, and they went up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again, —That, is the noise ye have heard.
Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki mpe mosakoli Natan bapakoli ye mafuta, na etima ya Giyoni, mpo ete akoma mokonzi. Wuta na Giyoni, bagangi na esengo, mpe engumba mobimba esepeli na likambo yango. Yango nde makelele oyo bozali koyoka.
46 Moreover also, Solomon hath taken his seat upon the throne of the kingdom.
Mpe lisusu, Salomo avandi na kiti ya bokonzi;
47 Moreover also, the servants of the king have been in, to bless our lord King David, saying—Thy God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne, —And the king bowed himself upon his bed.
basali ya mokonzi bayei kopesa longonya epai na Davidi, mokonzi na biso, na maloba oyo: « Tika ete Nzambe na yo akomisa kombo ya Salomo monene koleka kombo na yo, mpe kiti na ye ya bokonzi, monene koleka oyo ya yo! » Bongo mokonzi agumbamaki mpe agumbamelaki Nzambe na mbeto na ye,
48 Moreover also, thus and thus, hath said the king, —Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who hath given, to-day, one to sit upon my throne, mine own eyes also beholding it.
mpe alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, apambolama, Ye oyo, na mokolo ya lelo, apesi ngai nzela ya komona moto oyo akitani na ngai na bokonzi! »
49 Then trembled and rose up, all Adonijah’s guests, —and departed, every man his own way.
Tango bato oyo Adoniya abengisaki bayokaki bongo, batelemaki na kobanga mpe bakimaki moto na moto na nzela na ye.
50 Adonijah also, feared because of Solomon, —and rose and went, and caught hold of the horns of the altar.
Kasi mpo ete Adoniya abangaki Salomo, akendeki kokanga maseke ya etumbelo.
51 And it was told Solomon, saying, Lo! Adonijah, feareth King Solomon, —lo! therefore, he hath laid hold of the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon swear unto me at once that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.
Bayebisaki Salomo: — Adoniya azali kobanga mokonzi Salomo mpe akangi maseke ya etumbelo. Alobi: « Tika ete mokonzi Salomo alapa, na mokolo ya lelo, ndayi liboso na ngai ete akoboma mosali na ye te na mopanga. »
52 Then said Solomon, If he will be a man of worth, there shall not one hair of him fall to the earth, —but, if mischief be found in him, then shall he die.
Salomo azongisaki: — Soki kaka atamboli na sembo, suki ata moko te ya moto na ye ekokweya na mabele; kasi soki mabe emonani kati na ye, akokufa.
53 So King Solomon sent, and brought him down from the altar, and he came in, and bowed himself down to King Solomon, —and Solomon said unto him—Go to thine own house.
Boye, mokonzi Salomo atindaki bato mpo na kokitisa ye wuta na etumbelo. Bongo Adoniya ayaki mpe agumbamaki liboso ya mokonzi Salomo, mpe Salomo alobaki na ye: — Zonga na ndako na yo.
