< 2 Samuel 16 >

1 And David hath passed on a little from the top, and lo, Ziba, servant of Mephibosheth — to meet him, and a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred [of] summer-fruit, and a bottle of wine.
Tango Davidi alekaki mwa moke songe ya ngomba, Tsiba, mobombi bozwi ya Mefibosheti, azalaki kozela mpo na kokutana na ye; azalaki na ba-ane mibale oyo babongisi mpo na mobembo mpe ememaki mapa nkama mibale, maboke nkama moko ya bambuma ya vino ekawuka, maboke nkama moko ya bambuma ya figi mpe mbeki moko ya masanga ya vino.
2 And the king saith unto Ziba, 'What — these to thee?' and Ziba saith, 'The asses for the household of the king to ride on, and the bread and the summer-fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for the wearied to drink in the wilderness.'
Mokonzi atunaki Tsiba: — Mpo na nini omemi biloko oyo? Tsiba azongisaki: — Ba-ane ezali mpo na libota ya mokonzi mpo ete batambola na yango, mapa mpe bambuma ezali mpo na bato mpo ete balia, mpe masanga ya vino ezali mpo na kopesa makasi epai ya bato oyo bakolemba na esobe.
3 And the king saith, 'And where [is] the son of thy lord?' and Ziba saith unto the king, 'Lo, he is abiding in Jerusalem, for he said, To-day do the house of Israel give back to me the kingdom of my father.'
Bongo mokonzi atunaki lisusu: — Wapi Mefibosheti, koko ya nkolo na yo? Tsiba azongisaki: — Atikalaki na Yelusalemi, pamba te amilobelaki: « Lelo, libota ya Isalaele ekozongisa bokonzi ya koko na ngai na maboko na ngai. »
4 And the king saith to Ziba, 'Lo, thine [are] all that Mephibosheth hath;' and Ziba saith, 'I have bowed myself — I find grace in thine eyes, my lord, O king.'
Mokonzi alobaki na Tsiba: — Nyonso oyo ezali ya Mefibosheti ekomi sik’oyo ya yo. Tsiba alobaki: — Nagumbami liboso na yo mokonzi, nkolo na ngai! Tika ete nazwa ngolu na miso na yo!
5 And king David hath come in unto Bahurim, and lo, thence a man is coming out, of the family of the house of Saul, and his name [is] Shimei, son of Gera, he cometh out, coming out and reviling;
Wana mokonzi akomaki pembeni ya Bawurimi, ezalaki na moto moko oyo azalaki kobima wuta na mboka; kombo na ye ezalaki « Shimei, » mpe azalaki mwana mobali ya Gera. Azalaki moto ya etuka mpe libota moko na Saulo. Bongo wana azalaki kobima, azalaki mpe kolakela Davidi mabe.
6 and he stoneth David with stones, and all the servants of king David, and all the people, and all the mighty men on his right and on his left.
Azalaki kobamba Davidi mpe basali na ye mabanga atako bato nyonso mpe basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi bazalaki na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi mpe na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Davidi.
7 And thus said Shimei in his reviling, 'Go out, go out, O man of blood, and man of worthlessness!
Shimei azalaki koloba boye wana azalaki kolakela Davidi mabe: « Bima, bima, mobomi bato, moto pamba.
8 Jehovah hath turned back on thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned, and Jehovah doth give the kingdom in to the hand of Absalom thy son; and lo, thou [art] in thine evil, for a man of blood thou [art].'
Yawe atangi na moto na yo, makila nyonso ya ndako ya Saulo, oyo osopaki mpo ete okoma mokonzi na esika na ye. Yawe akabi bokonzi na maboko ya Abisalomi, mwana na yo ya mobali. Osili kokweya na pasi mpo ete ozali mosopi makila. »
9 And Abishai son of Zeruiah saith unto the king, 'Why doth this dead dog revile my lord the king? let me pass over, I pray thee, and I turn aside his head.'
Abishayi, mwana mobali ya Tseruya, alobaki na mokonzi: — Mpo na nini mbwa oyo ekufa ezali kolakela nkolo na ngai mabe. Pesa ngai nzela mpo ete nakende kokata ye moto.
10 And the king saith, 'What — to me and to you, O sons of Zeruiah? for — let him revile; even because Jehovah hath said to him, Revile David; and who saith, Wherefore hast Thou done so?'
Kasi mokonzi alobaki: — Bino bana mibali ya Tseruya, yo Abishayi mpe ndeko na yo, Joabi, likambo nini kati na ngai mpe bino? Soki azali kolakela ngai mabe, ezali nde na ndingisa ya Yawe mpo ete alobi na ye: « Lakela Davidi mabe. » Nani sik’oyo akoki kotuna: « Mpo na nini ozali kosala bongo? »
11 And David saith unto Abishai, and unto all his servants, 'Lo, my son who came out of my bowels is seeking my life, and also surely now the Benjamite; leave him alone, and let him revile, for Jehovah hath said [so] to him;
Bongo Davidi alobaki na Abishayi mpe na basali na ye nyonso: « Soki kutu mwana na ngai moko ya mobali oyo abimi na nzoto na ngai azali koluka koboma ngai, bongo ndenge nini moto oyo ya Benjame asala bongo te! Tika ye alakela ngai mabe, pamba te ezali Yawe nde alobi na ye bongo.
12 it may be Jehovah doth look on mine affliction, and Jehovah hath turned back to me good for his reviling this day.'
Tango mosusu Yawe akomona pasi na ngai, bongo akobongola na bolamu bilakeli mabe oyo ezali kokweyela ngai lelo. »
13 And David goeth with his men in the way, and Shimei is going at the side of the hill over-against him, going on, and he revileth, and stoneth with stones over-against him, and hath dusted with dust.
Boye, wana Davidi mpe bato na ye bakobaki nzela na bango, Shimei azalaki kotambola na mopanzi mosusu ya ngomba pembeni ya Davidi, azalaki kokoba kolakela Davidi mabe tango azalaki kotambola, kobamba ye mabanga mpe kobwakela ye putulu.
14 And the king cometh in, and all the people who [are] with him, wearied, and they are refreshed there.
Mokonzi elongo na bato na ye nyonso balembaki tango bakomaki na esika oyo bazalaki kokende mpe bapemaki kuna.
15 And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him,
Kaka na tango yango, Abisalomi mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bakomaki na Yelusalemi, mpe Ayitofeli azalaki elongo na ye.
16 and it cometh to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, hath come unto Absalom, that Hushai saith unto Absalom, 'Let the king live! let the king live!'
Ushayi, moto ya Ariki, moninga ya Davidi, akendeki epai ya Abisalomi mpe alobaki na ye: — Tika ete mokonzi owumela na bomoi! Tika ete mokonzi owumela na bomoi!
17 And Absalom saith unto Hushai, 'This thy kindness with thy friend! why hast thou not gone with thy friend?'
Abisalomi atunaki Ushayi: — Oyo nde bolingo nyonso oyo ozali kolakisa epai ya moninga na yo? Mpo na nini okendeki te elongo na moninga na yo?
18 And Hushai saith unto Absalom, 'Nay, for he whom Jehovah hath chosen, and this people, even all the men of Israel, his I am, and with him I abide;
Ushayi alobaki na Abisalomi: — Te, ngai nakozala elongo na moto oyo Yawe, bato oyo mpe Isalaele nyonso baponi.
19 and secondly, for whom do I labour? is it not before his son? as I served before thy father so am I before thee.'
Mpe ngai nakosalela nani? Ezali te mwana na ye ya mobali? Ndenge nasalelaki tata na yo, ndenge wana mpe nakosalela yo.
20 And Absalom saith unto Ahithophel, 'Give for you counsel what we do.'
Abisalomi alobaki na Ayitofeli: — Pesa biso toli na yo: tosengeli kosala nini?
21 And Ahithophel saith unto Absalom, 'Go in unto the concubines of thy father, whom he left to keep the house, and all Israel hath heard that thou hast been abhorred by thy father, and the hands of all who [are] with thee have been strong.'
Ayitofeli azongiselaki Abisalomi: — Kende kosangisa nzoto na bamakangu ya tata na yo, oyo batikalaki mpo na kobatela ndako, bongo Isalaele mobimba ekoyoka ete omikomisi nkele na miso ya tata na yo. Na bongo, maboko ya bato oyo bazali sima na yo ekolendisama.
22 And they spread out for Absalom the tent on the roof, and Absalom goeth in unto the concubines of his father before the eyes of all Israel.
Boye basalelaki Abisalomi ndako ya kapo na likolo ya ndako, mpe asangisaki nzoto na bamakangu ya tata na ye na miso ya Isalaele mobimba.
23 And the counsel of Ahithophel which he counselled in those days [is] as [when] one inquireth at the word of God; so [is] all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
Nzokande, na tango wana, toli oyo Ayitofeli abandaki kopesa ezalaki lokola maloba ya moto oyo azali kotuna mayele epai ya Ye moko Nzambe. Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Davidi mpe Abisalomi bazalaki komona batoli ya Ayitofeli.
