2 Samuel 24
1 And again was the anger of Yahweh kindled against Israel, —so that he suffered David to be moved against them, saying, Go, count 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 The king, therefore, said unto Joab, captain of the force, who was with him—Go to and fro, I pray thee, throughout all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even unto Beer -sheba, and number ye the people, —so shall I 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 Then said Joab unto the king—Yea, Yahweh thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, a hundredfold, and [suffer] the eyes of my lord the king, to see it, —but, my lord the king, wherefore doth he find pleasure 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 word of the king prevailed against Joab, and over the captains of the force, —so Joab went forth, with the captains of the force, before the king, to number the people—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 the Jordan, —and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city, that is in the midst of the ravine of Gad, even towards 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 Thus came they to Gilead, and unto the land of Tahtim-hodshi, —and came to Dan-jaan, and round about Zidon;
Longwa kuna, balekaki na etuka ya Galadi mpe ya Tayitimi-Odishi kino bakomaki na Dani Yaani mpe zingazinga ya Sidoni.
7 and entered the fortress of Tyre, and all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites, —and they went out to the South of Judah, even to 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 throughout all the land, they came, at the end of nine months and twenty days, unto Jerusalem.
Boye batambolaki mboka mobimba, mpe bazongaki na Yelusalemi sima na basanza libwa mpe mikolo tuku mibale.
9 And Joab delivered up the sum of the number of the people, unto the king, —and there were found to be, in Israel, eight hundred thousand men of valour, drawing the sword, —and, the men of Judah, 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 the heart of David smote him, after he had reckoned up the people, —and David said unto Yahweh—I have sinned greatly, in what I have done, Now, therefore, O Yahweh, take 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 arose in the morning, the word of Yahweh, had come unto Gad the prophet, the seer of David, 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 Yahweh, Three things, do I offer thee, —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 in unto David, and told him, —and said to him: Shall there come unto thee seven years of famine in thy land? Or, for three months, wilt thou flee before thine enemies while, they, pursue thee? Or shall there be, for three days, pestilence in thy land? Now, consider and see, 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, I pray thee, into the hand of Yahweh, for, manifold, are, his compassions, but, into the hand of man, let me not fall.
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 Yahweh sent forth a pestilence throughout Israel, from the morning even unto the time appointed, —and there died of the people, from Dan even unto 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 But, when the messenger stretched out his hand towards Jerusalem, to destroy it, then relented Yahweh as to the evil, and he said to the messenger who was destroying the people—Enough! now, stay thy hand. And, the messenger of Yahweh, 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 Then said David unto Yahweh, when he saw the messenger who was smiting the people, yea he said—Lo! I, have sinned, and, I, have done perversely, but what have, these sheep, done? Let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against the house of my father!
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 unto David, on that day, —and said unto him—Go up, rear thou unto Yahweh an altar, 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 So David went up, according to the word of Gad, as Yahweh had commanded.
Davidi akendeki kuna kolanda liloba oyo Gadi alobaki na Kombo na Yawe.
20 And Araunah looked out, and saw the king, and his servants, passing over unto him—so Araunah went forth, and did homage unto 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 Then said Araunah, Wherefore, hath my lord the king come unto his servant? And David said—To buy of thee the threshing-floor, to build an altar unto Yahweh, that the plague may be stayed from off 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 Then said Araunah unto David, Let my lord the king accept it and cause to ascend what is good in his own eyes, —see! the oxen for the ascending-sacrifice, and the threshing-sledges and ox-yokes for 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 The whole, did Araunah give, as a king to a king. And Araunah said unto the king, Yahweh 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 But the king said unto Araunah—Nay! but I will, buy, it of thee, for a price, and will not cause to ascend unto Yahweh my God, offerings that have 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 Yahweh, and caused to go up ascending-sacrifices and peace-offerings, —then was Yahweh 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.
