1 Kings 2
1 And draw near do the days of David to die, and he chargeth Solomon his son, saying,
Tango Davidi akomaki pene ya kokufa, apesaki malako oyo epai ya Salomo, mwana na ye ya mobali:
2 'I am going in the way of all the earth, and thou hast been strong, and become a man,
— Nalingi kokende na nzela oyo bato nyonso bakendaka. Zala makasi, lakisa ete ozali mobali.
3 and kept the charge of Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commands, and His judgments, and His testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, so that thou dost wisely all that thou dost, and whithersoever thou turnest,
Sala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, alingaka: tambola na banzela na Ye, batela malako mpe bikateli na Ye, mibeko mpe mitindo na Ye, ndenge ekomama kati na Mobeko ya Moyize, mpo ete olonga na makambo nyonso oyo okosala mpe na bisika nyonso oyo okokende;
4 so that Jehovah doth establish His word which He spake unto me, saying, If thy sons observe their way to walk before Me in truth, with all their heart, and with all their soul; saying, There is not cut off a man of thine from the throne of Israel.
mpe mpo ete Yawe akokisa elaka oyo apesaki ngai na maloba oyo: « Soki bakitani na yo basali keba na etamboli na bango, soki batamboli liboso na ngai na bosembo, na mitema na bango mobimba, ekozala tango nyonso na moko kati na bakitani na yo, oyo akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya Isalaele.
5 'And also, thou hast known that which he did to me — Joab son of Zeruiah — that which he did to two heads of the hosts of Israel, to Abner son of Ner, and to Amasa son of Jether — that he slayeth them, and maketh the blood of war in peace, and putteth the blood of war in his girdle, that [is] on his loins, and in his sandals that [are] on his feet;
Sik’oyo, yo moko oyebi makambo oyo Joabi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, asalaki ngai; makambo oyo asalaki bakonzi mibale ya mampinga ya Isalaele: Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri; mpe Amasa, mwana mobali ya Yeteri. Abomaki bango, asopaki makila ya bitumba na tango ya kimia; boye, atiaki makila ya bitumba na mokaba oyo alataki na loketo na ye, mpe na basandale oyo ezalaki na makolo na ye.
6 and thou hast done according to thy wisdom, and dost not let his old age go down in peace to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Salela ye kolanda bwanya na yo mpe kotika te ete suki na ye ya pembe ekita na kimia na mboka ya bakufi. (Sheol h7585)
7 'And to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite thou dost do kindness, and they have been among those eating at thy table, for so they drew near unto me in my fleeing from the face of Absalom thy brother.
Kasi talisa bolamu epai ya bana mibali ya Barizilayi, moto ya Galadi; mpe sala ete bazala kati na bato oyo bakobanda kolia mesa moko elongo na yo, pamba te basungaki ngai tango nazalaki kokima Abisalomi, ndeko na yo ya mobali.
8 'And lo, with thee [is] Shimei son of Gera, the Benjamite of Bahurim, and he reviled me — a grievous reviling — in the day of my going to Mahanaim; and he hath come down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swear to him by Jehovah, saying, I do not put thee to death by the sword;
Mpe yeba ete, elongo na yo, ozali na Shimei, mwana mobali ya Gera, moto ya Benjame, na mboka Bawurimi, oyo alakelaki ngai mabe makasi na mokolo oyo nazalaki kokende na Maanayimi. Tango ayaki kokutana na ngai na Yordani, nalapaki ndayi oyo mpo na ye na Kombo na Yawe: ‹ Nakoboma yo na mopanga te. ›
9 and now, acquit him not, for a wise man thou [art], and thou hast known that which thou dost to him, and hast brought down his old age with blood to Sheol.' (Sheol h7585)
Kasi sik’oyo, kozwa ye te lokola moto oyo asali mabe te. Ozali na bwanya, okoyeba nini osengeli kosala mpo na ye. Kitisa suki na ye ya pembe kati na makila, na mboka ya bakufi. » (Sheol h7585)
10 And David lieth down with his fathers, and is buried in the city of David,
Davidi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye kati na engumba ya Davidi.
11 and the days that David hath reigned over Israel [are] forty years, in Hebron he hath reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he hath reigned thirty and three years.
Davidi akonzaki Isalaele mibu tuku minei: mibu sambo na Ebron, mpe mibu tuku misato na misato na Yelusalemi.
12 And Solomon hath sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom is established greatly,
Salomo avandaki na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi, tata na ye, mpe bokonzi na ye elendisamaki.
13 and Adonijah son of Haggith cometh in unto Bath-Sheba, mother of Solomon, and she saith, 'Is thy coming peace?' and he saith, 'Peace.'
Adoniya, mwana mobali ya Agite, akendeki epai ya Batisheba, mama ya Salomo. Batisheba atunaki ye: — Boni, oyei kotala ngai na kimia? Azongisaki: — Iyo, nayei na kimia.
14 And he saith, 'I have a word unto thee,' and she saith, 'Speak.'
Abakisaki: — Nazali na likambo moko ya koyebisa yo. Batisheba azongisaki: — Okoki koloba yango.
15 And he saith, 'Thou hast known that the kingdom was mine, and towards me set their faces had all Israel for reigning, and the kingdom is turned round about, and is my brother's, for from Jehovah it was his;
Adoniya alobaki: — Lokola oyebi yango, bokonzi ezalaki ya ngai; bato nyonso ya Isalaele bazwaki ngai lokola mokonzi na bango, kasi makambo ebongwanaki mpe bokonzi ekeyi epai ya ndeko na ngai ya mobali, pamba te epesamelaki ye wuta na Yawe.
16 and now, one petition I am asking of thee — turn not back my face;' and she saith unto him, 'Speak.'
Sik’oyo, nazali na bosenga moko, kopimela ngai yango te. Batisheba alobaki: — Okoki koloba yango.
17 And he saith, 'Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king, for he doth not turn back thy face, and he doth give to me Abishag the Shunammite for a wife.'
Adoniya alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, loba na mokonzi Salomo ete apesa ngai Abishagi, moto ya Sunami, mpo ete akoma mwasi na ngai, pamba te mokonzi akoki koboya te koyokela yo.
18 And Bath-Sheba saith, 'Good; I do speak for thee unto the king.'
Batisheba azongisaki: — Malamu! Ngai moko nakolobela yo epai ya mokonzi.
19 And Bath-Sheba cometh in unto king Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king riseth to meet her, and boweth himself to her, and sitteth on his throne, and placeth a throne for the mother of the king, and she sitteth at his right hand.
Tango Batisheba akendeki epai ya mokonzi Salomo mpo na kolobela Adoniya, mokonzi atelemaki mpo na kokutana na Batisheba, agumbamaki liboso na ye mpe avandaki na kiti na ye ya bokonzi. Asengaki ete batia kiti mpo na mama ya mokonzi, mpe Batisheba avandaki na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya mokonzi.
20 And she saith, 'One small petition I ask of thee, turn not back my face;' and the king saith to her, 'Ask, my mother, for I do not turn back thy face.'
Batisheba alobaki: — Nazali na bosenga moko ya moke mpo na koyebisa yo, kasi kopimela ngai yango te. Mokonzi azongisaki: — Loba na yo, mama na ngai; nakopimela yo yango te.
21 And she saith, 'Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother for a wife.'
Batisheba alobaki: — Tika ete Abishagi, moto ya Sunami, akoma mwasi ya Adoniya, ndeko na yo ya mobali.
22 And king Solomon answereth and saith to his mother, 'And why art thou asking Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? also ask for him the kingdom — for he [is] mine elder brother — even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab son of Zeruiah.'
Mokonzi Salomo azongiselaki mama na ye: — Mpo na nini ozali kosenga Abishagi, moto ya Sunami, mpo na Adoniya? Okokaki mpe kosenga bokonzi mpo na ye, mpo ete azali yaya na ngai; ndenge moko mpe mpo na Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari, mpo na Joabi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya!
23 And king Solomon sweareth by Jehovah, saying, 'Thus doth God to me, and thus He doth add — surely against his soul hath Adonijah spoken this word;
Bongo, mokonzi Salomo alapaki ndayi na Kombo na Yawe: — Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai etumbu ya makasi soki Adoniya akufi te mpo na bosenga oyo!
24 and now, Jehovah liveth, who hath established me, and causeth me to sit on the throne of David my father, and who hath made for me an house as He spake — surely to-day is Adonijah put to death.'
Mpe sik’oyo, na Kombo na Yawe oyo alendisi ngai na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi, tata na ngai, mpe oyo asali ete bokonzi ezala na libota na ngai ndenge alapaki yango na ndayi, Adoniya akokufa kaka lelo.
25 And king Solomon sendeth by the hand of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he falleth upon him, and he dieth.
Mokonzi Salomo atindaki Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, kobeta Adoniya; mpe Adoniya akufaki.
26 And to Abiathar the priest said the king, 'To Anathoth go, unto thy fields; for a man of death thou [art], but in this day I do not put thee to death, because thou hast borne the ark of the Lord Jehovah before David my father, and because thou wast afflicted in all that my father was afflicted in.'
Mokonzi alobaki na Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari: — Zonga na bilanga na yo, na Anatoti, pamba te osengeli kokufa. Kasi nakoboma yo sik’oyo te, pamba te omemaki Sanduku ya Nkolo Yawe liboso ya Davidi, tata na ngai, mpe okabolaki na ye pasi nyonso.
27 And Solomon casteth out Abiathar from being priest to Jehovah, to fulfil the word of Jehovah which He spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
Boye, Salomo alongolaki Abiatari na mosala na ye ya Nganga-Nzambe ya Yawe, mpo na kokokisa maloba oyo Yawe alobaki na Silo na tina na libota ya Eli.
28 And the report hath come unto Joab — for Joab hath turned aside after Adonijah, though after Absalom he did not turn aside — and Joab fleeth unto the tent of Jehovah, and layeth hold on the horns of the altar.
Tango sango ekomaki epai ya Joabi, ye oyo abundelaki Adoniya kasi Abisalomi te, akimaki na Ndako ya kapo ya Yawe mpe asimbaki maseke ya etumbelo.
29 And it is declared to king Solomon that Joab hath fled unto the tent of Jehovah, and lo, near the altar; and Solomon sendeth Benaiah son of Jehoiada, saying, 'Go, fall upon him.'
Bayebisaki Salomo ete Joabi akei na Ndako ya kapo ya Yawe mpe azali pembeni ya maseke ya etumbelo. Salomo atindaki Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, ete akende koboma ye.
30 And Benaiah cometh in unto the tent of Jehovah, and saith unto him, 'Thus said the king, Come out;' and he saith, 'Nay, but here I die.' And Benaiah bringeth back the king word, saying, 'Thus spake Joab, yea, thus he answered me.'
Benaya akotaki na Ndako ya kapo ya Yawe mpe alobaki na Joabi: — Mokonzi alobi ete obima. Kasi Joabi azongisaki: — Te, nakokufela kaka awa! Benaya azongaki epai ya mokonzi mpo na koyebisa ye eyano ya Joabi.
31 And the king saith to him, 'Do as he hath spoken, and fall upon him, and thou hast buried him, and turned aside the causeless blood which Joab shed, from off me, and from off the house of my father;
Mokonzi apesaki ye mitindo: — Sala ndenge alobi; boma ye mpe kunda ye. Na bongo nde okolongola likolo ya moto na ngai mpe ya libota ya tata na ngai, ngambo ya makila oyo Joabi asopaki na pamba.
32 and Jehovah hath turned back his blood on his own head, who hath fallen on two men more righteous and better than he, and slayeth them with the sword, — and my father David knew not — Abner son of Ner, head of the host of Israel, and Amasa son of Jether, head of the host of Judah;
Tika ete Yawe akweyisa likolo na ye moko mokumba ya makila oyo asopaki, pamba te abundisaki bato mibale mpe abomaki bango na mopanga; tata na ngai, Davidi, ayebaki kutu te. Tala bakombo ya bato mibale yango: Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri, mokonzi ya mampinga ya Isalaele; mpe Amasa, mwana mobali ya Yeteri, mokonzi ya mampinga ya Yuda; bazalaki bato malamu mpe ya sembo koleka ye.
33 yea, turned back hath their blood on the head of Joab, and on the head of his seed to the age; and for David, and for his seed, and for his house, and for his throne, there is peace unto the age, from Jehovah.'
Tika ete ngambo ya makila na bango ezala mpo na libela likolo ya moto ya Joabi mpe ya bana na ye. Kasi tika ete kimia ya Yawe ezala mpo na libela na Davidi, na bana na ye, na libota na ye mpe na kiti na ye ya bokonzi.
34 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada goeth up and falleth upon him, and putteth him to death, and he is buried in his own house in the wilderness,
Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, akendeki kobeta Joabi mpe abomaki ye. Bakundaki ye na ndako na ye moko, kati na esobe.
35 and the king putteth Benaiah son of Jehoiada in his stead over the host, and Zadok the priest hath the king put in the stead of Abiathar.
Mokonzi akomisaki Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada, mokonzi ya mampinga na esika ya Joabi, mpe atiaki Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki na esika ya Abiatari.
36 And the king sendeth and calleth for Shimei, and saith to him, 'Build for thee a house in Jerusalem, and thou hast dwelt there, and dost not go out thence any where;
Mokonzi abengisaki Shimei mpe alobaki na ye: — Tonga ndako kati na Yelusalemi mpe vanda kuna. Okokende esika mosusu te.
37 and it hath been, in the day of thy going out, and thou hast passed over the brook Kidron, thou dost certainly know that thou dost surely die — thy blood is on thy head.'
Mokolo oyo okobima mpe okokatisa lubwaku ya Sedron, okokufa, mpe makila na yo ekotangama na moto na yo moko.
38 And Shimei saith to the king, 'The word [is] good; as my lord the king hath spoken so doth thy servant do;' and Shimei dwelleth in Jerusalem many days.
Shimei azongiselaki mokonzi: — Makambo oyo olobi ezali malamu! Mowumbu na yo akosala ndenge mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, alobi. Shimei avandaki na Yelusalemi mikolo ebele.
39 And it cometh to pass, at the end of three years, that flee do two of the servants of Shimei unto Achish son of Maachah, king of Gath, and they declare to Shimei, saying, 'Lo, thy servants [are] in Gath;'
Kasi sima na mibu misato, bawumbu mibale kati na bawumbu ya Shimei bakimaki epai ya Akishi, mwana mobali ya Maaka, mokonzi ya Gati. Bayebisaki Shimei ete bawumbu na ye bazali na Gati.
40 and Shimei riseth, and saddleth his ass, and goeth to Gath, unto Achish, to seek his servants, and Shimei goeth and bringeth his servants from Gath.
Tango Shimei ayokaki bongo, abongisaki ane na ye mpe akendeki epai ya Akishi, na Gati, mpo na koluka bawumbu na ye. Shimei akendeki penza na Gati mpe azongisaki bawumbu yango na Yelusalemi.
41 And it is declared to Solomon that Shimei hath gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and doth return,
Bamemelaki Salomo sango ete Shimei alongwaki na Yelusalemi, akendeki na Gati mpe azongi.
42 and the king sendeth and calleth for Shimei, and saith unto him, 'Have I not caused thee to swear by Jehovah — and I testify against thee, saying, In the day of thy going out, and thou hast gone anywhere, thou dost certainly know that thou dost surely die; and thou sayest unto me, The word I have heard [is] good?
Mokonzi abengisaki Shimei mpe alobaki na ye: — Nalapisaki yo ndayi te na Kombo na Yawe mpe nakebisaki yo te ete mokolo oyo okobima mpo na kokende esika mosusu, okokufa penza? Mpe na mokolo yango, olobaki na ngai: « Makambo oyo olobi ezali malamu, nakotosa. »
43 and wherefore hast thou not kept the oath of Jehovah, and the charge that I charged upon thee?'
Mpo na nini okokisi te ndayi na yo epai na Yawe mpo na kotosa mitindo oyo napesaki?
44 And the king saith unto Shimei, 'Thou hast known all the evil that thy heart hath known, which thou didst to David my father, and Jehovah hath turned back thine evil on thy head,
Mokonzi alobaki lisusu na Shimei: — Oyebi lisusu mabe nyonso oyo osalaki epai ya Davidi, tata na ngai! Boye, Yawe akomemisa yo ngambo ya mabe oyo yo moko osali.
45 and king Solomon [is] blessed, and the throne of David is established before Jehovah unto the age.'
Kasi mokonzi Salomo akopambolama, mpe kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi ekolendisama makasi liboso ya Yawe mpo na libela.
46 And the king chargeth Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he goeth out and falleth on him, and he dieth, and the kingdom is established in the hand of Solomon.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya Benaya, mwana mobali ya Yeoyada. Benaya abimaki, abetaki Shimei, mpe Shimei akufaki. Bokonzi elendisamaki na maboko ya Salomo.
