2 Samuel 1
1 After the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in Ziklag,
Wana Saulo asilaki kokufa, Davidi azongaki na Tsikilagi sima na ye kolonga bato ya Amaleki. Mpe avandaki kuna mikolo mibale.
2 on the third day, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and earth on his head. When he came to David, he fell to the earth and showed respect.
Na mokolo ya misato, moto moko awutaki na molako ya Saulo mpe ayaki na bilamba epasuka, moto etonda na putulu. Tango akomaki epai ya Davidi, amibwakaki na mabele mpo na kogumbama liboso ya Davidi.
3 David said to him, “Where do you come from?” He said to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
Davidi atunaki ye: — Owuti wapi? Azongisaki: — Nakimi wuta na molako ya Isalaele.
4 David said to him, “How did it go? Please tell me.” He answered, “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead. Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.”
Davidi atunaki lisusu: — Yebisa ngai makambo nini eleki kuna? Moto yango alobaki: — Mampinga ya Isalaele ekimi bitumba; ebele kati na bango bakweyi na bitumba mpe bakufi, ata Saulo mpe mwana na ye ya mobali, Jonatan, bakufi.
5 David said to the young man who told him, “How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?”
Bongo Davidi alobaki na elenge mobali oyo azalaki kopesa ye sango: — Oyebi ndenge nini ete Saulo mpe mwana na ye ya mobali, Jonatan, bakufi?
6 The young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance on Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and the horsemen followed close behind him.
Elenge mobali azongisaki: — Nazalaki na ngai koleka na likolo ya ngomba Giliboa, mpe namonaki Saulo alaleli likonga na ye. Namonaki lisusu bashar mpe basoda oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda kokoma pene ya kokanga ye.
7 When he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. I answered, ‘Here I am.’
Tango kaka abalukaki mpe amonaki ngai, abengaki ngai; mpe ngai nazongisaki: « Ngai oyo. »
8 He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
Atunaki ngai: — Ozali nani? Nazongiselaki ye: — Nazali moto ya Amaleki.
9 He said to me, ‘Please stand beside me, and kill me, for anguish has taken hold of me because my life lingers in me.’
Alobaki na ngai: — Pusana pene na ngai mpe boma ngai, pamba te nazali koyoka lisusu nzoto malamu te, atako nazali nanu na bomoi.
10 So I stood beside him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.”
Boye napusanaki pene na ye mpe nabomaki ye, pamba te nayebaki ete akobika te na kotala ndenge babetaki ye. Sima, nazwaki ekoti na ye ya bokonzi, oyo azalaki na yango na moto mpe singa oyo alataki na loboko na ye, mpe namemi yango epai na yo, nkolo na ngai.
11 Then David took hold on his clothes and tore them; and all the men who were with him did likewise.
Bongo Davidi mpe basoda nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na ye basimbaki bilamba na bango mpe bapasolaki yango.
12 They mourned, wept, and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
Basalaki matanga, balelaki mpe bakilaki bilei kino na pokwa, mpo na Saulo mpe Jonatan, mwana na ye ya mobali; mpo na mampinga ya Yawe mpe mpo na libota ya Isalaele, mpo ete bakufaki na nzela ya mopanga.
13 David said to the young man who told him, “Where are you from?” He answered, “I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite.”
Davidi atunaki elenge mobali oyo amemelaki ye sango: — Ozali moto ya mboka nini? Azongisaki: — Nazali mwana mobali ya mopaya moko, moto ya Amaleki.
14 David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to stretch out your hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?”
Davidi atunaki ye: — Mpo na nini obangaki te kosembola loboko na yo mpo na koboma mopakolami na Yawe?
15 David called one of the young men and said, “Go near, and cut him down!” He struck him so that he died.
Bongo Davidi abengaki moko kati na basoda na ye mpe alobaki: « Yaka, boma ye! » Mpe soda yango abomaki ye.
16 David said to him, “Your blood be on your head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I have slain the LORD’s anointed.’”
Davidi alobaki na moto oyo amemelaki ye sango: « Tika ete makila na yo etangama na moto na yo moko, pamba te maloba na yo moko nde efundi yo mpo ete olobi: ‹ Nabomaki mopakolami na Yawe. › »
17 David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son
Davidi asalaki nzembo oyo ya mawa mpo na Saulo mpe Jonatan, mwana na ye ya mobali.
18 (and he commanded them to teach the children of Judah the song of the bow; behold, it is written in the book of Jashar):
Apesaki mitindo ete balakisa yango epai ya bato ya Yuda. Nzembo yango ya mawa ekomama kati na buku ya Moto ya Sembo.
19 “Your glory, Israel, was slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen!
Oh Isalaele, lokumu na yo ekweyi na likolo ya bangomba na yo. Ndenge nini bilombe bakweyi!
20 Don’t tell it in Gath. Don’t publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
Bopanza sango yango te kati na Gati, bopanza yango te na babalabala ya Ashikeloni, noki te bana basi ya bato ya Filisitia bakosepela, mpe bana basi ya mibali oyo bakatama ngenga te bakopumbwa na esengo.
21 You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain on you, and no fields of offerings; for there the shield of the mighty was defiled and cast away, the shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
Oh bangomba ya Giliboa, tika ete mamwe mpe mvula ekweya lisusu te na likolo na bino, ata na likolo ya bilanga oyo ebotaka bambuma mpe epai wapi makabo ewutaka! Pamba te ezali kuna nde basambwisaki banguba ya bilombe, nguba ya Saulo oyo bakotikala kopakola lisusu mafuta te.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan’s bow didn’t turn back. Saul’s sword didn’t return empty.
Tolotolo ya Jonatan ezalaki kozonga sima te soki esopi makila ya banguna te, mpe soki etoboli mafuta ya bilombe te; mpe mopanga ya Saulo ezalaki kozonga te soki ekokisi mosala na yango te.
23 Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives. In their death, they were not divided. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.
Na mikolo ya bomoi na bango, Saulo mpe Jonatan balinganaki makasi mpe bapesanaki lokumu; mpe na kufa na bango, bakabolaki bango te. Bazalaki mbangu koleka bampongo, makasi koleka bankosi.
24 You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you delicately in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.
Oh bino bana basi ya Isalaele, bolela mpo na Saulo oyo alatisaki bino bilamba ya motane mpe biloko ya monzele, oyo atondisaki babiju ya wolo na bilamba na bino.
25 How the mighty have fallen in the middle of the battle! Jonathan was slain on your high places.
Ndenge nini bilombe bakweyi na bitumba! Ndenge nini babomaki Jonatan na bangomba na yo!
26 I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love to me was wonderful, surpassing the love of women.
Ah, Jonatan, ndeko na ngai ya mobali, nazali na pasi na motema mpo na yo! Ozalaki motuya mingi mpo na ngai. Bolingo na yo mpo na ngai ezalaki makasi koleka bolingo ya mwasi!
27 How the mighty have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished!”
Ndenge nini bilombe bakweyi! Ah! bibundeli ya bitumba ekomi pamba!
