2 Samuel 23
1 Now these are the last words of David— David son of Jesse, the man who was highly honored, the one anointed by the God of Jacob, the sweet psalmist of Israel.
Tala maloba ya suka ya Davidi: Maloba ya Davidi, mwana mobali ya Izayi, moto oyo atombolama na bokonzi, mopakolami ya Nzambe ya Jakobi, moyembi malamu ya banzembo ya Isalaele:
2 “The Spirit of Yahweh spoke by me, and his word was on my tongue.
« Molimo na Yawe alobi na nzela na ngai, atie maloba na Ye na monoko na ngai.
3 The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me, 'The one who rules righteously over men, who rules in the fear of God.
Nzambe oyo azali Libanga ya Isalaele ayebisi ngai: ‹ Mokonzi oyo akambaka bato kati na bosembo mpe botosi epai ya Nzambe,
4 He will be like the morning light when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, when the tender grass springs up from the earth through bright sunshine after rain.
azali lokola pole ya tongo, tango moyi ebimaka mpe engalaka makasi lokola nde mapata ezali te, lokola kongenga ya sima na mvula oyo ebimisaka matiti na mokili. ›
5 Indeed, is my family not like this before God? Has he not made an everlasting covenant with me, ordered and sure in every way? Does he not increase my salvation and fulfill my every desire?
Ezali bongo te mpo na libota na ngai liboso ya Nzambe, pamba te asalaki boyokani ya libela elongo na ngai, boyokani oyo esalema malamu na makambo nyonso, mpe oyo Ye moko abatelaka? Tango nyonso mpe na makambo nyonso, apesaki ngai elonga mpe akokisaki posa ya motema na ngai.
6 But the worthless will all be like thorns to be thrown away, because they cannot be gathered by one's hands.
Kasi bato nyonso ya kilikili bazali lokola nzete ya nzube oyo babwakaka mosika; basimbaka yango te na maboko pamba.
7 The man who touches them must use an iron tool or the shaft of a spear. They must be burned up where they lie.'”
Moto oyo alingi kosimba yango asengeli kosalela ebende to libaya ya likonga; batumbaka yango kaka na esika oyo ezali. »
8 These are the names of David's mighty men: Jeshbaal the Hachmonite was the leader of the mighty men. He killed eight hundred men on one occasion.
Tala bakombo ya basoda ya mpiko ya Davidi: Yoshebi-Bashebeti, moto ya Takimoni: azalaki mokonzi ya limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko, abomaki na likonga bato nkama mwambe na etumba moko.
9 After him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men. He was with David when they taunted the Philistines who had gathered together to do battle, and when the men of Israel had retreated.
Molandi na ye ezalaki Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Dodo, moto ya Aoyi: azalaki moko kati na limpinga ya basoda misato ya mpiko oyo, elongo na Davidi, babundisaki bato ya Filisitia oyo basanganaki mpo na bitumba, wana bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kokima na likolo ya bangomba.
10 Eleazar stood and fought the Philistines until his hand became weary and his hand stiffened to the grip of his sword. Yahweh brought about a great victory that day. The army returned after Eleazar, only to strip the bodies.
Kasi ye ayikaki mpiko kati na bitumba mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia kino alembaki, mpe loboko na ye etikaki mopanga te. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene na mokolo wana. Mampinga bazongaki epai ya Eleazari kaka mpo na kokamata biloko ya bato oyo bakufaki.
11 After him was Shammah son of Agee, a Hararite. The Philistines gathered together where there was a field of lentils, and the army fled from them.
Sima na ye, Shama, mwana mobali ya Age, moto ya Arari. Tango bato ya Filisitia basanganaki na Leyi epai wapi ezalaki na elanga moko etonda na misili, basoda ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango.
12 But Shammah stood in the middle of the field and defended it. He killed the Philistines, and Yahweh brought about a great victory.
Kasi Shama atelemaki na kati-kati ya elanga, abundelaki yango mpe abomaki bato ya Filisitia. Yawe apesaki bango elonga monene.
13 Three of the thirty soldiers went down to David at harvest time, to the cave of Adullam. The army of the Philistines was camped in the Valley of Rephaim.
Mokolo moko, na ebandeli ya eleko ya kobuka bambuma, wana basoda ya bato ya Filisitia batongaki molako na bango kati na lubwaku ya Refayimi, basoda misato kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko bayaki epai ya Davidi, na ebombamelo ya mabanga ya Adulami.
14 At that time David was in his stronghold, a cave, while the Philistines had established at Bethlehem.
Na tango yango, Davidi azalaki kati na ebombamelo moko batonga makasi, mpe basoda ya Filisitia bazalaki na Beteleemi.
15 David was longing for water and said, “If only someone would give me water to drink from the well at Bethlehem, the well that is by the gate!”
Mbala moko, Davidi ayokaki posa ya mayi mpe alobaki: « Nani akomemela ngai mayi ya libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpo ete namela? »
16 So these three mighty men broke through the army of the Philistines and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, the well at the gate. They took the water and brought it to David, but he refused to drink it. Instead, he poured it out to Yahweh.
Basoda nyonso misato ya mpiko bakotaki na mayele kati na molako ya bato ya Filisitia, batokaki mayi na libulu oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya Beteleemi mpe bamemaki yango epai ya Davidi. Kasi Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango; asopaki yango na mabele lokola likabo ya masanga mpo na Yawe.
17 Then he said, “Yahweh, far be it from me, that I should do this. Should I drink the blood of men who have risked their lives?” So he refused to drink it. These things were done by the three mighty.
Alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe apesa ngai etumbu soki nameli mayi oyo, pamba te ezali lokola makila ya bato oyo bandimaki kokende kokufa mpo na ngai. » Boye, Davidi aboyaki komela mayi yango. Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo basoda misato ya mpiko basalaki.
18 Abishai, brother of Joab and son of Zeruiah, was captain over the three. He once fought with his spear against three hundred men and killed them. He was often mentioned along with the three soldiers.
Abishayi, ndeko mobali ya Joabi mpe mwana mobali ya Tseruya, azalaki mokonzi ya basoda misato ya mpiko. Abundisaki bato nkama misato na likonga na ye mpe abomaki bango. Boye, kati na bango misato, ye nde akendeki sango koleka.
19 Was he not even more famous than the three? He was made their captain. However, his fame did not equal the fame of the three most famous soldiers.
Kati na basoda misato ya mpiko, ye nde azwaki lokumu koleka mpe akomaki mokonzi na bango, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya limpinga ya liboso.
20 Benaiah from Kabzeel was the son of Jehoiada; he was a strong man who did mighty feats. He killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down into a pit and killed a lion while it was snowing.
Benaya, moto ya mboka Kabitseli mpe mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, azalaki soda ya mpiko mpe asalaki makambo ebele ya kokamwa: abomaki bilombe mibale ya Moabi; mpe na mokolo ya mvula ya pembe, akitaki na libulu moko ya mayi mpe abomaki kuna nkosi.
21 Then he killed a very large Egyptian man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah fought against him with only a staff. He seized the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and then killed him with his own spear.
Ye mpe moto abomaki mbinga mobali moko ya Ejipito, oyo asimbaki likonga na loboko na ye. Abundisaki moto yango ya Ejipito na lingenda, abotolaki ye likonga oyo azalaki na yango na loboko mpe abomaki ye na likonga na ye moko.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada did these feats, and he was named alongside the three mighty men.
Yango nde misala ya kokamwa oyo Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, asalaki. Ye mpe akendeki sango kati na basoda misato ya mpiko ya lisanga ya mibale.
23 He was more highly regarded than the thirty soldiers in general, but he was not regarded quite as highly as the three mighty men. Yet David put him in charge of his bodyguard.
Kati na basoda tuku misato ya mpiko, ye nde azalaki na lokumu monene koleka, kasi akokanaki te na basoda misato ya mpiko ya limpinga ya liboso. Mpe Davidi akomisaki ye mokonzi ya bakengeli na ye.
