< 1 Masolo ya Kala 10 >
1 Bato ya Filisitia babundisaki bana ya Isalaele. Bana ya Isalaele bakimaki liboso na bango mpe mingi kati na bango bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
And the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on mount Gilboa.
2 Nzokande, bato ya Filisitia batingamaki kolanda Saulo mpe bana na ye ya mibali, bongo babomaki Jonatan, Abinadabi mpe Maliki-Shuwa oyo bazalaki bana na ye.
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, Saul's sons.
3 Bitumba ekomaki lisusu makasi mpo na koluka bomoi ya Saulo. Tango basoda oyo babundaka na matolotolo bamonaki ye, Saulo alengaki na somo makasi wana asosolaki ete bakoboma ye.
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers came up with him, and he was terrified by the archers.
4 Saulo alobaki na soda oyo amemaki bibundeli na ye: « Bimisa mopanga na yo mpe boma ngai, noki te bato oyo bakatama ngenga te bakoya kosakanela ngai. » Kasi soda yango abangaki mpe aboyaki koboma ye; bongo ye moko Saulo azwaki mopanga mpe amibwakaki na likolo na yango.
Then said Saul to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it.
5 Tango soda yango amonaki ete Saulo akufi, ye mpe amibwakaki na likolo ya mopanga mpe akufaki.
And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
6 Ezalaki bongo nde Saulo, bana na ye misato ya mibali mpe libota na ye mobimba bakufaki elongo.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
7 Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele, oyo bazalaki kovanda na lubwaku, bamonaki ete mampinga esili kopanzana, mpe ete Saulo mpe bana na ye ya mibali bakufi, basundolaki bingumba na bango mpe bakimaki. Bato ya Filisitia bayaki kovanda na bingumba yango.
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
8 Mokolo oyo elandaki, tango bato ya Filisitia bayaki mpo na kolongola biloko oyo ezalaki na banzoto ya bibembe, bamonaki Saulo mpe bana na ye ya mibali oyo bakufaki na ngomba Giliboa.
And it came to pass the next day, that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his sons fallen on mount Gilboa.
9 Bazwaki biloko na ye, bamemaki moto na ye elongo na bibundeli na ye, mpe batindaki bato na mokili mobimba ya bato ya Filisitia mpo ete bapanza sango malamu oyo ya elonga epai ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe epai ya bato na bango.
And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armour, and sent [them] into the land of the Philistines round about, to announce the glad tidings to their idols, and to the people.
10 Batiaki bibundeli na ye na tempelo ya banzambe na bango mpe badiembikaki mokuwa ya moto na ye kati na tempelo ya Dagoni.
And they put his armour in the house of their god, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
11 Tango bavandi nyonso ya Yabeshi kati na Galadi bayokaki makambo nyonso oyo bato ya Filisitia basalaki Saulo,
And when all they of Jabesh-Gilead heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 bilombe na bango nyonso batelemaki, bakendeki kozwa bibembe ya Saulo mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali; mpe bamemaki yango na Yabeshi. Sima na bango kokunda mikuwa na bango na Yabeshi, na se ya nzete ya terebente, bakilaki bilei mikolo sambo.
all the valiant men arose, and took up the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the terebinth of Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 Saulo akufaki mpo ete atosaki Yawe te, abatelaki Liloba na Yawe te mpe akendeki kotuna makambo epai ya moto oyo asololaka na milimo ya bakufi, na esika ya kotuna makambo epai na Yawe.
And Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah which he kept not, and also for having inquired of the spirit of Python, asking counsel of it;
14 Boye Yawe abomaki ye mpe apesaki bokonzi epai ya Davidi, mwana mobali ya Izayi.
and he asked not counsel of Jehovah; therefore he slew him, and transferred the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
