1 Masolo ya Kala 17
1 Wana Davidi avandaki na ndako na ye ya bokonzi, alobaki na mosakoli Natan: — Nazali kovanda na ndako batonga na mabaya ya sedele, kasi Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe ezali kati na ndako ya kapo.
Nowe afterward when Dauid dwelt in his house, he saide to Nathan the Prophet, Beholde, I dwell in an house of cedar trees, but the Arke of the Lordes couenant remaineth vnder curtaines.
2 Natan azongiselaki Davidi: — Sala nyonso oyo ozali na yango na motema, pamba te Nzambe azali elongo na yo.
Then Nathan said to Dauid, Do all that is in thine heart: for God is with thee.
3 Kasi na butu wana, Nzambe alobaki na Natan:
And the same night euen the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
4 — Kende koyebisa Davidi, mosali na Ngai: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Ezali yo te moto okotongela Ngai ndako mpo ete navanda kati na yango.
Goe, and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not buylde me an house to dwell in:
5 Banda mokolo oyo nabimisaki Isalaele na Ejipito kino lelo, natikali nanu kovanda na ndako moko te; nazalaki kaka kati na Mongombo, longwa na esika songolo kino na esika pakala.
For I haue dwelt in no house, since the day that I brought out the childre of Israel vnto this daye, but I haue bene from tent to tent, and from habitation to habitation.
6 Na bisika nyonso oyo natamboli elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele, boni, nasilaki koloba ata na moko kati na bakambi na bango, oyo natiaki mpo na kobatela bato na Ngai: ‘Mpo na nini botongeli Ngai te ndako ya mabaya ya sedele?’ ›
Wheresoeuer I haue walked with all Israel spake I one word to any of the iudges of Israel (whome I commanded to feede my people) saying, Why haue ye not built mee an house of cedar trees?
7 Yebisa sik’oyo Davidi, mosali na Ngai: ‹ Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Ezali Ngai nde nazwaki yo na zamba epai wapi ozalaki koleisa mpe kobatela bibwele, mpo ete nakomisa yo mokonzi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
Nowe therefore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I tooke thee from the sheepecoat and from following the sheepe, that thou shouldest bee a prince ouer my people Israel.
8 Nazalaki elongo na yo na bisika nyonso oyo okendeki mpe nabomaki banguna na yo nyonso liboso na yo. Sik’oyo, nakokomisa kombo na yo monene lokola bakombo ya bato minene oyo bazali kati na mokili.
And I haue bene with thee whithersoeuer thou hast walked, and haue destroyed all thine enemies out of thy sight, and haue made thee a name, like the name of the great men that are in the earth.
9 Nakobongisa esika mpo na bato na Ngai, Isalaele, mpe nakolona bango mpo ete bazala na esika na bango moko mpe batungisa bango lisusu te. Bato mabe bakonyokola bango lisusu te ndenge bazalaki konyokola bango liboso;
(Also I will appoynt a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, that they may dwell in their place, and moue no more: neither shall the wicked people vexe them any more, as at the beginning,
10 mpe ndenge bazalaki kosala bango tango nyonso wuta tango oyo naponaki bakambi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele. Nakotia lisusu banguna na yo na se ya bokonzi na yo. Boye, nazali koyebisa yo ete Yawe akosala ete bokonzi ewumela kati na libota na yo.
And since the time that I commanded iudges ouer my people Israel) And I wil subdue all thine enemies: therefore I say vnto thee, that the Lord wil buylde thee an house.
11 Tango okosilisa mobembo na yo awa na mokili mpe okokende kokutana na batata na yo, nakotombola moko kati na bakitani na yo, oyo akobima penza na mokongo na yo, mpo ete akitana na yo; mpe nakolendisa bokonzi na ye.
And when thy dayes shalbe fulfilled to go with thy fathers, then will I rayse vp thy seede after thee, which shalbe of thy sonnes, and will stablish his kingdome.
12 Ezali ye nde akotonga Ndako mpo na Kombo na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakolendisa mpo na libela kiti na ye ya bokonzi.
He shall builde me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer.
13 Nakozala tata mpo na ye, mpe ye akozala mwana mpo na Ngai; nakotikala kolongola te bolingo na Ngai epai na ye ndenge nalongolaki yango epai ya mokonzi oyo alekaki liboso na yo.
I wil be his father, and he shalbe my sonne, aud I will not take my mercie away from him, as I tooke it from him that was before thee.
14 Nakotia ye mokonzi ya ndako na Ngai mpe ya mokili na Ngai mpo na libela, mpe kiti na ye ya bokonzi ekolendisama mpo na libela. › »
But I wil establish him in mine house, and in my kingdome for euer, and his throne shalbe stablished for euer,
15 Natan ayebisaki Davidi maloba oyo nyonso mpe emoniseli oyo nyonso.
According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision. So Nathan spake to Dauid.
16 Mokonzi Davidi akotaki, avandaki liboso ya Yawe mpe alobaki: « Oh Yawe Nzambe, ngai nazali nani, mpe libota na ngai ezali nini, mpo ete okomisa ngai na esika oyo nazali?
And Dauid the King went in and sate before the Lord and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
17 Mpe lokola nde ekokaki te na miso na Yo, Nzambe na ngai, olobi lisusu na tina na lobi ya libota ya bokonzi ya mosali na Yo! Oh Yawe Nzambe, ozali kozwa ngai lokola moto ya lokumu!
Yet thou esteeming this a small thing, O God, hast also spoken concerning the house of thy seruaut for a great while, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of hie degree, O Lord God.
18 Nini oyo Davidi akoki lisusu koloba na Yo mpo na lokumu oyo ozali kopesa na mosali na Yo? Pamba te, oh Yawe, oyebi mosali na Yo.
What can Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant.
19 Oh Yawe, mpo na mosali na Yo mpe kolanda mokano na Yo, okokisi makambo minene oyo mpe osali ete bilaka minene oyo nyonso eyebana.
O Lord, for thy seruantes sake, euen according to thine heart hast thou done all this great thing to declare all magnificence.
20 Oh Yawe, moko te akokani na Yo; mpe, kolanda nyonso oyo toyoki na matoyi na biso, Nzambe mosusu azali te, bobele Yo!
Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.
21 Boni, ezali solo na ekolo moko kati na mokili, oyo ekokani na bato na Yo, Isalaele; ekolo oyo, kati na mokili, Nzambe asikola bato na yango mpo na lokumu na Ye moko? Osalaki ete Kombo na yo ekende sango na nzela ya misala minene mpe ya somo oyo osalaki tango obenganaki bikolo liboso ya bato na Yo, oyo akangolaki na Ejipito.
Moreouer what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whose God went to redeeme them to be his people, and to make thy selfe a Name, and to doe great and terrible things by casting out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast deliuered out of Egypt?
22 Okomisi Isalaele bato na Yo mpo na libela, mpe Yo, Yawe, okomi Nzambe na bango.
For thou hast ordeined thy people Israel to be thine owne people for euer, and thou Lord art become their God.
23 Bongo sik’oyo, oh Yawe, tika ete elaka oyo opesaki epai ya mosali na Yo mpe libota na ye ekokisama mpo na libela! Sala ndenge olakaki.
Therefore nowe Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant and concerning his house, be confirmed for euer, and doe as thou hast sayd,
24 Boye, sala ete ekokisama, mpo ete Kombo na Yo ekumisama seko na seko mpe bato bakoma kolobaka: ‹ Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga mpe Nzambe ya Isalaele, azali solo Nzambe mpo na Isalaele! › Boye bokonzi ya libota ya mosali na Yo, Davidi, ekolendisama liboso na Yo.
And let thy name be stable and magnified for euer, that it may be sayd, The Lord of hostes, God of Israel, is the God of Israel, and let the house of Dauid thy seruant bee stablished before thee.
25 Solo, Yo moko, Nzambe na ngai, olakisaki na mosali na Yo ete okosala ete bokonzi ewumela na libota na ye. Yango wana mosali na Yo azwi makasi ya kosambela Yo.
For thou, O my God, hast reueiled vnto the eare of thy seruant, that thou wilt builde him an house: therefore thy seruant hath bene bolde to pray before thee.
26 Sik’oyo oh Yawe, ozali Nzambe! Olakaki makambo ya malamu epai ya mosali na Yo.
Therefore nowe Lord (for thou art God, and hast spoken this goodnesse vnto thy seruant)
27 Osepeli sik’oyo kopambola libota ya mosali na Yo mpo ete ewumela seko liboso na Yo; pamba te ezali Yo, Yawe, nde opamboli yango, mpe epambolami mpo na libela. »
Now therfore, it hath pleased thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may bee before thee for euer: for thou, O Lord, hast blessed it, and it shalbe blessed for euer.
