< 1 Samuel 22 >

1 So David left there and escaped to the cave of Adullam. When his brothers and all his father's house heard it, they went down there to him.
Davidi alongwaki na Gati mpe akendeki kobombama na lidusu ya libanga ya Adulami. Tango bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe ya libota ya botata na ye bayokaki sango yango, bakitaki kuna epai na ye.
2 Everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented—they all gathered to him. David became captain over them. There were about four hundred men with him.
Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na minyoko, ba-oyo bazalaki na baniongo ya bato mosusu mpe ba-oyo mitema na bango ezoka, basanganaki zingazinga ya Davidi mpe akomaki mokambi na bango. Elongo na ye, ezalaki na bato pene nkama minei.
3 Then David went from there to Mizpah in Moab. He said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and my mother go out with you until I know what God will do for me.”
Kolongwa wana, Davidi akendeki na Mitsipe ya Moabi mpe alobaki na mokonzi ya Moabi: « Nabondeli yo: Pesa tata na ngai mpe mama na ngai ndingisa ya koya kovanda elongo na yo kino ngai nakoyeba makambo oyo Nzambe akosala mpo na ngai. »
4 He left them with the king of Moab. His father and mother stayed with him the whole time that David was in his stronghold.
Boye Davidi amemaki bango epai ya mokonzi ya Moabi, mpe bavandaki elongo na ye tango nyonso oyo Davidi azalaki kati na ndako ya makasi.
5 Then the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not stay in your stronghold. Leave and go into the land of Judah.” So David left there and went into the forest of Hereth.
Kasi mosakoli Gadi alobaki na Davidi: « Kovanda te kati na ndako oyo batonga makasi, kende na mokili ya Yuda. » Boye Davidi alongwaki mpe akendeki na zamba ya Ereti.
6 Saul heard that David had been discovered, along with the men who were with him. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah under the tamarisk tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.
Saulo ayokaki ete bamonaki Davidi elongo na bato na ye. Wana Saulo azalaki na mopanga na loboko na ye mpe avandaki na Gibea, na likolo ya ngomba moke mpe na se ya nzete oyo babengi « Tamarisi » elongo na bakonzi nyonso ya mampinga na ye,
7 Saul said to his servants who stood around him, “Listen now, people of Benjamin! Will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards? Will he make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds,
Saulo ayebisaki bango: « Bino bato ya Benjame boyoka, bokanisi ete mwana ya Izayi akopesa bino nyonso bilanga mpe bilanga ya vino? Bokanisi ete akokomisa bino bakonzi ya bankoto to bakonzi ya bankama ya basoda?
8 in exchange for all of you plotting against me? None of you informs me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse. None of you is sorry for me. None of you informs me that my son has incited my servant David against me. Today he hides and waits for me so he may attack me.”
Ezali mpo na yango nde bino nyonso bosalelaki ngai likita? Moto moko te alobi na ngai na tina na boyokani oyo mwana na ngai ya mobali asalaki na mwana ya Izayi, mpe moko te kati na bino ayokeli ngai mawa mpo ete ayebisa ngai ete mwana na ngai asaleli ngai likita mpo ete mosali na ngai atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo? »
9 Then Doeg the Edomite, who stood by the servants of Saul, answered, “I saw the son of Jesse come to Nob, to Ahimelech son of Ahitub.
Kasi Doegi, moto ya Edomi, oyo azalaki moko kati na basali ya Saulo, alobaki: « Namonaki mwana mobali ya Izayi koya na Nobi epai ya Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi.
10 He prayed to Yahweh that he might help him, and he gave him provisions and the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”
Ayimeleki atunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Yawe, mpe apesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga ya Goliati, moto ya Filisitia. »
11 Then the king sent someone to summon the priest Ahimelech son of Ahitub and all his father's house, the priests who were in Nob. All of them came to the king.
Boye mokonzi abengisaki Nganga-Nzambe Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi; elongo na Banganga-Nzambe nyonso, bato ya libota na ye ya botata, oyo bazalaki na Nobi. Mpe bango nyonso bayaki epai ya mokonzi.
12 Saul said, “Listen now, son of Ahitub.” He answered, “Here I am, my master.”
Saulo alobaki: — Yoka sik’oyo, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi. Ayimeleki azongisaki: — Nazali koyoka yo, nkolo na ngai.
13 Saul said to him, “Why have you plotted against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread, and a sword, and have prayed to God that he might help him, so that he might rise up against me, to hide in secret, as he does today?”
Saulo alobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini yo mpe mwana mobali ya Izayi bosalelaki ngai likita mpo na kotelemela ngai? Mpo na nini opesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga, mpe otunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Nzambe, mpo ete atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo?
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king and said, “Who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law and is over your bodyguard, and is honored in your house?
Ayimeleki azongiselaki mokonzi: — Boni, ezali na moto moko kati na basali na yo nyonso oyo azali na boyengebene lokola Davidi? Ye oyo azali bokilo ya mokonzi, mokambi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka yo mpe moto oyo aleki na lokumu kati na libota na yo?
15 Is today the first time I have prayed to God to help him? Far be it from me! Do not let the king impute anything to his servant or to all the house of my father. For your servant knows nothing of this whole matter.”
Boni, mokolo wana ezalaki mbala na ngai ya liboso ya kotuna mpo na ye makambo epai ya Nzambe? Nakanisi ete ezali bongo te. Boye tika ete mokonzi atangela mosali na ye to moko kati na libota ya botata na ngai ngambo te; pamba te mosali na yo ayebi ata eloko moko te kati na likambo oyo nyonso.
16 The king replied, “You will surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father's house.”
Kasi mokonzi alobaki: — Ayimeleki, okokufa solo; yo mpe libota mobimba ya botata na yo.
17 The king said to the guard that stood around him, “Turn and kill the priests of Yahweh. Because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he fled, but did not reveal it to me.” But the servants of the king would not put out their hand to kill the priests of Yahweh.
Boye, mokonzi atindaki bakengeli na ye, oyo bazalaki na mopanzi na ye: « Bobaluka mpe boboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe; pamba te bango mpe basungaki Davidi: bayebaki ete Davidi azalaki kokima kasi bayebisaki ngai te. » Kasi basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi baboyaki kosembola maboko na bango mpo na koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
18 Then the king said to Doeg, “Turn and kill the priests.” So Doeg the Edomite turned and attacked the priests; he killed eighty-five persons who wore a linen ephod that day.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya Doegi: « Yo, baluka mpe boma Banganga-Nzambe. » Boye Doegi, moto ya Edomi, abalukaki mpe abomaki bango. Na mokolo wana, abomaki bato tuku mwambe na mitano oyo balataki efode ya lino.
19 He also put to the sword Nob, the city of the priests; both men and women, children and infants, and oxen and donkeys and sheep he put to the sword.
Abomaki lisusu na mopanga kati na Nobi, engumba ya Banganga-Nzambe, mibali, basi, bana mpe bana mike, bangombe, ba-ane mpe bameme.
20 But one of the sons of Ahimelech son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.
Kaka Abiatari, mwana mobali ya Ayimeleki mpe koko ya Ayitubi, nde abikaki mpe akimaki mpo na kokende kosangana na Davidi.
21 Abiathar told David that Saul had killed Yahweh's priests.
Abiatari ayebisaki Davidi ete Saulo asili koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
22 David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I am responsible for every death in your father's family!
Boye Davidi alobaki na Abiatari: « Mokolo wana, nayebaki malamu ete lokola Doegi, moto ya Edomi, azalaki wana, akokaki kozanga te koyebisa Saulo. Boye ezali mpo na ngai nde bato nyonso ya libota ya botata na yo bakufi!
23 Stay with me and do not be afraid. For the one who seeks your life seeks mine as well. You will be safe with me.”
Sik’oyo, vanda awa elongo na ngai, kobanga te. Pamba te moto oyo azali koluka bomoi na yo azali koluka mpe bomoi na ngai. Okobatelama malamu epai na ngai. »
