1 Samuel 14

1 And the day cometh that Jonathan son of Saul saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, 'Come, and we pass over unto the station of the Philistines, which [is] on the other side of this;' and to his father he hath not declared [it].

Mokolo moko, Jonatan, mwana mobali ya Saulo, alobaki na elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye: « Yaka! Tokatisa na ngambo mosusu epai wapi bato ya Filisitia bazali. » Kasi alobaki ata likambo moko te epai ya tata na ye.

2 And Saul is abiding at the extremity of Gibeah, under the pomegranate which [is] in Migron, and the people who [are] with him, about six hundred men,

Saulo avandaki na mondelo ya engumba Gibea, na se ya nzete ya grenade oyo ezali na Migironi, elongo na basoda pene nkama motoba.

3 and Ahiah, son of Ahitub, brother of I-Chabod, son of Phinehas son of Eli priest of Jehovah in Shiloh, bearing an ephod; and the people knew not that Jonathan hath gone.

Kati na bango, ezalaki na Nganga-Nzambe moko oyo azalaki kolata efode; kombo na ye ezalaki « Ayiya. » Ayiya azalaki mwana mobali ya Ayitubi, ndeko mobali ya I-Kabodi, mwana mobali ya Fineasi mpe koko ya Eli oyo azalaki Nganga-Nzambe ya Yawe, na Silo. Soda moko te ayebaki ete Jonatan akendeki.

4 And between the passages where Jonathan sought to pass over unto the station of the Philistines [is] the edge of a rock on the one side, and the edge of a rock on the other side, and the name of the one is Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

Na bangambo ya se ya lubwaku oyo Jonatan asengelaki kokatisa mpo na kokende kobundisa bato ya Filisitia, ezalaki na libanga moko na ngambo moko na moko. Babengaki moko Botsetsi, mpe mosusu, Sene.

5 The one edge [is] fixed on the north over-against Michmash, and the one on the south over-against Gibeah.

Libanga moko etelemaki na ngambo ya nor, na nzela oyo ekenda na Mikimasi, mpe mosusu etalanaki na Geba, na sude.

6 And Jonathan saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, 'Come, and we pass over unto the station of these uncircumcised; it may be Jehovah doth work for us, for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.'

Jonatan alobaki na elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye: — Yaka! Tokende na molako ya bato oyo bakatama ngenga te. Tango mosusu Yawe akosala mpo na biso, pamba te eloko moko te ekoki kopekisa Yawe kobikisa, ezala na nzela ya bato ebele to ya bato moke.

7 And the bearer of his weapons saith to him, 'Do all that [is] in thy heart; turn for thee; lo, I [am] with thee, as thine own heart.'

Elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye azongisaki: — Sala nyonso oyo ozali na yango na makanisi. Kende! Nazali elongo na yo na motema mpe na molimo.

8 And Jonathan saith, 'Lo, we are passing over unto the men, and are revealed unto them;

Jonatan alobaki na ye: — Tokende kino na molako ya basoda yango mpe tomimonisa epai na bango.

9 if thus they say unto us, 'Stand still till we have come unto you,' then we have stood in our place, and do not go up unto them;

Soki balobi na biso: « Botelema wana, bozela kino biso moko tokoya epai na bino; » wana tokovanda na esika oyo tozali mpe tokokende epai na bango te.

10 and if thus they say, 'Come up against us,' then we have gone up, for Jehovah hath given them into our hand, and this to us [is] the sign.

Kasi soki balobi na biso: « Boya epai na biso, » tokokende epai na bango, pamba te yango ekozala elembo mpo na biso ete Yawe akabi bango na maboko na biso.

11 And revealed are both of them unto the station of the Philistines, and the Philistines say, 'Lo, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hid themselves.'

Boye, bango mibale bamimonisaki na molako ya bato ya Filisitia. Mpe tango bato ya Filisitia bamonaki bango, balobaki: « Botala! Ba-Ebre babimi wuta na mabulu epai wapi babombamaki. »

12 And the men of the station answer Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons, and say, 'Come up unto us, and we cause you to know something.' And Jonathan saith unto the bearer of his weapons, 'Come up after me, for Jehovah hath given them into the hand of Israel.'

Balobaki na Jonatan mpe na elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye: « Boya epai na biso, tokoteya bino likambo moko. » Jonatan alobaki na elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye: « Landa ngai na sima, pamba te Yawe asili kokaba bango na maboko ya Isalaele. »

13 And Jonathan goeth up on his hands, and on his feet, and the bearer of his weapons after him; and they fall before Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons is putting to death after him.

Jonatan asalelaki makolo mpe maboko na ye mpo na komata, mpe elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye alandaki ye na sima. Wana Jonatan azalaki kokweyisa bato ya Filisitia na liboso; na sima na ye, elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye azalaki koboma bango.

14 And the first smiting which Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons have smitten is of about twenty men, in about half a furrow of a yoke of a field,

Na etumba oyo ya liboso, Jonatan elongo na elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye babomaki bato pene tuku mibale, na etando oyo bangombe mibale ekoki kobalola na mokolo moko.

15 and there is a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the station and the destroyers have trembled — even they, and the earth shaketh, and it becometh a trembling of God.

Mpe kobanga makasi ekotaki kati na molako, kati na etando mpe kati na bato nyonso: ezala basoda oyo bazalaki kokengela molako mpe basoda ya mpiko, bango nyonso bakomaki kobanga makasi mpe mabele eninganaki. Ezalaki somo oyo Ye moko Nzambe atindaki.

16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin see, and lo, the multitude hath melted away, and it goeth on, and is beaten down.

Bakengeli ya Saulo, oyo bazalaki na Gibea ya Benjame bamonaki mampinga kopalangana na bangambo nyonso.

17 And Saul saith to the people who [are] with him, 'Inspect, I pray you, and see; who hath gone from us?' and they inspect, and lo, Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons are not.

Bongo Saulo alobaki na basoda oyo bazalaki elongo na ye: « Botanga basoda mpo na koyeba banani basili kokima. » Tango batangaki, bamonaki ete Jonatan mpe elenge mobali oyo azalaki komema bibundeli na ye bazali te.

18 And Saul saith to Ahiah, 'Bring nigh the ark of God;' for the ark of God hath been on that day with the sons of Israel.

Saulo alobaki na Ayiya: « Boya na Sanduku ya Nzambe. » Pamba te na tango wana, Sanduku ya Nzambe ezalaki elongo na bato ya Isalaele.

19 And it cometh to pass, while Saul spake unto the priest, that the noise which [is] in the camp of the Philistines goeth on, going on and becoming great, and Saul saith unto the priest, 'Remove thy hand.'

Wana Saulo azalaki nanu kosolola na Nganga-Nzambe, mobulu ezalaki kaka kokoma makasi kati na molako ya bato ya Filisitia. Boye Saulo alobaki na Nganga-Nzambe: « Tika! Kotuna Yawe ezali lisusu na tina te. »

20 And Saul is called, and all the people who [are] with him, and they come in unto the battle, and, lo, the sword of each hath been against his neighbour — a very great destruction.

Bongo Saulo elongo na bato na ye nyonso basanganaki mpe bakendeki na bitumba; bamonaki ete bato ya Filisitia bazali na mobulu makasi, bazali kobomana bango na bango na mipanga.

21 And the Hebrews [who] have been for the Philistines as heretofore, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned round, even they, to be with Israel who [are] with Saul and Jonathan,

Ba-Ebre oyo basalelaki liboso bato ya Filisitia mpe bakendeki elongo na bango na bitumba mosusu, bango basanganaki na bato ya Isalaele, oyo bazalaki elongo na Saulo mpe Jonatan.

22 and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue — even they — after them in battle.

Tango bato nyonso ya Isalaele oyo babombamaki kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi bayokaki ete bato ya Filisitia bazali kokima, bango mpe balandaki mpe babundisaki bato ya Filisitia.

23 And Jehovah saveth Israel on that day, and the battle hath passed over to Beth-Aven.

Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Yawe abikisaki na mokolo wana bato ya Isalaele, mpe bitumba ekobaki kino ekatisaki Beti-Aveni.

24 And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjureth the people, saying, 'Cursed [is] the man who eateth food till the evening, and I have been avenged of mine enemies;' and none of the people hath tasted food.

Bato ya Isalaele bazalaki na pasi makasi mokolo wana, pamba te Saulo atiaki bato na se ya mokumba ya ndayi esangana na bilakeli mabe. Alobaki: « Alakelama mabe, moto nyonso oyo akolia bilei liboso ete pokwa ekoma, liboso ete ngai nazongisa mabe na mabe na banguna na ngai. » Boye moto moko te amekaki kolia.

25 And all [they of] the land have come into a forest, and there is honey on the face of the field;

Bato nyonso bakotaki na zamba mpe bamonaki mafuta ya nzoyi, na mabele.

26 and the people come in unto the forest, and lo, the honey dropped, and none is moving his hand unto his mouth, for the people feared the oath.

Tango bakotaki na zamba, bamonaki mafuta ya nzoyi kotanga, mpe moko te asimbaki mpe aliaki yango mpo na kotosa ndayi.

27 And Jonathan hath not heard of his father's adjuring the people, and putteth forth the end of the rod, which [is] in his hand, and dippeth it in the honeycomb, and bringeth back his hand unto his mouth — and his eyes see!

Kasi Jonatan ayokaki te ete tata na ye atiaki bato na se ya mokumba ya ndayi; apusaki nzete oyo azalaki na yango na loboko, azindisaki yango na mafuta ya nzoyi mpe aliaki yango, elongi na ye engengaki.

28 And a man of the people answereth and saith, 'Thy father certainly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who eateth food to-day; and the people are weary.'

Bongo moko kati na basoda alobaki na ye: — Tata na yo atiaki mampinga nyonso na se ya mokumba ya ndayi na koloba: « Alakelama mabe, moto nyonso oyo akolia bilei na mokolo ya lelo. » Yango wana bato nyonso balembi.

29 And Jonathan saith, 'My father hath troubled the land; see, I pray you, that mine eyes have become bright because I tasted a little of this honey.

Jonatan alobaki: — Solo, tata na ngai akotisaki pasi kati na mokili. Botala ndenge nini elongi na ngai engengi! Ezali mpo ete nalie mwa ndambo ya mafuta ya nzoyi.

30 How much more if the people had well eaten to-day of the spoil of its enemies which it hath found, for now, the smiting hath not been great among the Philistines.'

Bongo soki bato na biso baliaki na mokolo ya lelo mafuta ya nzoyi oyo bamonaki epai ya banguna na biso, kokweyisama ya bato ya Filisitia elingaki kozala monene!

31 And they smite on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, and the people are very weary,

Na mokolo wana, sima na bato ya Isalaele kosilisa koboma bato ya Filisitia wuta na Mikimasi kino na Ayaloni, balembaki makasi.

32 and the people make unto the spoil, and take sheep, and oxen, and sons of the herd, and slaughter on the earth, and the people eat with the blood.

Bamibwakaki na bomengo ya bitumba mpe bakamataki biloko oyo: bameme, bangombe mpe bana ngombe. Bakataki yango kingo na mabele mpe baliaki yango na likolo ya makila na yango.

33 And they declare to Saul, saying, 'Lo, the people are sinning against Jehovah, to eat with the blood.' And he saith, 'Ye have dealt treacherously, roll unto me to-day a great stone.'

Moto moko alobaki na Saulo: — Tala! Bato bazali kosala masumu liboso ya Yawe na ndenge bazali kolia nyama na likolo ya makila. Saulo alobaki: — Bokweyisi kondima! Botindika sik’oyo libanga moko ya monene kino awa.

34 And Saul saith, 'Be ye scattered among the people, and ye have said to them, Bring ye nigh unto me each his ox, and each his sheep; and ye have slain [them] in this place, and eaten, and ye do not sin against Jehovah to eat with the blood.' And all the people bring nigh each his ox, in his hand, that night, and slaughter [them] there.

Saulo abakisaki: Bokende kati na bato mpe boloba na bango ete moko na moko amemela ngai ngombe na ye mpe meme na ye, mpe akata yango kingo na esika oyo. Bongo bokolia yango mpe bokosala masumu te liboso ya Yawe na kolia nyama na likolo ya makila kati na yango. Boye moko na moko amemaki ngombe na ye na butu mpe akataki yango kingo na esika yango.

35 And Saul buildeth an alter to Jehovah; with it he hath begun to build altars to Jehovah.

Bongo Saulo atongaki etumbelo mpo na Yawe; ezalaki mbala na ye ya liboso ya kosala likambo ya boye.

36 And Saul saith, 'Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey upon them till the light of the morning, and leave not a man of them.' And they say, 'All that is good in thine eyes do.' And the priest saith, 'Let us draw near hither unto God.'

Saulo alobaki: — Tokita mpe tolanda bato ya Filisitia na butu ya lelo, tobebisa bango kino na tongo mpe totika ata moto moko te ya bomoi kati na bango. Bato bazongisaki: — Sala nyonso oyo omoni ete ezali malamu. Kasi Nganga-Nzambe alobaki: — Totuna Nzambe na esika oyo.

37 And Saul asketh of God, 'Do I go down after the Philistines? dost Thou give them into the hand of Israel?' and He hath not answered him on that day.

Boye Saulo atunaki Nzambe: « Nakoki na ngai kokita mpo na kolanda bato ya Filisitia? Okokaba bango solo na maboko ya bato ya Isalaele? » Kasi Nzambe apesaki ye eyano te na mokolo wana.

38 And Saul saith, 'Draw ye nigh hither all, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin hath been to-day;

Saulo alobaki: — Bino nyonso oyo bozali bakambi ya bato, boya awa! Toluka koyeba lisumu nini oyo esalemi na mokolo ya lelo.

39 for, Jehovah liveth, who is saving Israel: surely if it be in Jonathan my son, surely he doth certainly die;' and none is answering him out of all the people.

Na Kombo na Yawe, Mobikisi ya Isalaele, ata ezali Jonatan, mwana na ngai ya mobali, nde asali lisumu yango, asengeli kokufa. Kasi kati na bato, moko te alobaki ata liloba moko.

40 And he saith unto all Israel, 'Ye — ye are on one side, and I and Jonathan my son are on another side;' and the people say unto Saul, 'That which is good in thine eyes do.'

Bongo Saulo alobaki na bato nyonso ya Isalaele: — Bozala ngambo moko. Ngai mpe Jonatan, mwana na ngai ya mobali, tokozala ngambo mosusu. Bato bazongisaki: — Sala nyonso oyo omoni ete ezali malamu.

41 And Saul saith unto Jehovah, God of Israel, 'Give perfection;' and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out.

Bongo Saulo asambelaki Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele: « Oh Nzambe, talisa ngai eyano ya malamu. » Boye zeke ekweyaki epai ya Jonatan mpe Saulo, mpe bato bazalaki na mbeba te.

42 And Saul saith, 'Cast between me and Jonathan my son;' and Jonathan is captured.

Saulo alobaki: « Bobeta zeke kati na ngai mpe Jonatan, mwana na ngai ya mobali. » Mpe zeke ekweyaki epai ya Jonatan.

43 And Saul saith unto Jonathan, 'Declare to me, what hast thou done?' and Jonathan declareth to him, and saith, 'I certainly tasted with the end of the rod that [is] in my hand a little honey; lo, I die!'

Bongo Saulo alobaki na Jonatan: — Yebisa ngai likambo oyo osalaki. Jonatan alobaki: — Namekaki ndambo ya mafuta ya nzoyi na songe ya nzete oyo nazalaki na yango na maboko. Mpe sik’oyo nasengeli kokufa!

44 And Saul saith, 'Thus doth God do, and thus doth He add, for thou dost certainly die, Jonathan.'

Saulo alobaki: — Jonatan, tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai etumbu ya makasi koleka soki okufi te.

45 And the people say unto Saul, 'Doth Jonathan die who wrought this great salvation in Israel? — a profanation! Jehovah liveth, if there falleth from the hair of his head to the earth, for with God he hath wrought this day;' and the people rescue Jonathan, and he hath not died.

Kasi bato balobaki na Saulo: — Boni, Jonatan akokufa! Ye oyo asali ete Isalaele azwa kokangolama monene boye! Te! Na Kombo na Yawe, akokufa te! Suki ya moto na ye ata moko te ekokweya na se, pamba te ezali na lisungi ya Nzambe nde asali makambo oyo na mokolo ya lelo. Boye bato babikisaki Jonatan, mpe akufaki te.

46 And Saul goeth up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;

Saulo atikaki kolanda bato ya Filisitia, mpe bato ya Filisitia bazongaki na mboka na bango.

47 and Saul captured the kingdom over Israel, and he fighteth round about against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the Bene-Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and whithersoever he turneth he doth vex [them].

Tango Saulo azwaki bokonzi mpo na koyangela Isalaele, abundisaki banguna na bango na bangambo nyonso: Moabi, bato ya Amoni, Edomi, bakonzi ya Tsoba, mpe bato ya Filisitia. Bisika nyonso oyo azalaki kobaluka, azalaki kolonga bato wana.

48 And he maketh a force, and smiteth Amalek, and delivereth Israel out of the hand of its spoiler.

Abundisaki na makasi nyonso bato ya Amaleki mpe alongaki bango, akangolaki Isalaele na maboko ya bato oyo bazalaki kobotola bango biloko.

49 And the sons of Saul are Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi-Shua; as to the name of his two daughters, the name of the first-born [is] Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;

Bana mibali ya Saulo bazalaki: Jonatan, Yishivi mpe Maliki-Shuwa. Azalaki na bana mibale ya basi: ya mokolo, kombo na ye ezalaki « Merabi; » mpe ya leki, « Mikali. »

50 and the name of the wife of Saul [is] Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the head of his host [is] Abner son of Ner, uncle of Saul;

Kombo ya mwasi na ye ezalaki « Ayinoami, » mwana mwasi ya Ayimaatsi. Abineri, mwana mobali ya Neri, Noko ya Saulo, azalaki mokonzi ya mampinga ya Saulo.

51 and Kish [is] father of Saul, and Ner father of Abner [is] son of Ahiel.

Kishi, tata ya Saulo, mpe Neri, tata ya Abineri, bazalaki bana mibali ya Abieli.

52 And the war is severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul; when Saul hath seen any mighty man, and any son of valour, then he doth gather him unto himself.

Na mikolo nyonso ya bomoi ya Saulo, bitumba ezalaki makasi na bato ya Filisitia; mpe bisika nyonso oyo Saulo azalaki komona bato ya makasi to ya mpiko, azalaki kozwa mpe kokotisa bango kati na mampinga na ye.
