1 Samuele 10
1 Bongo Samuele azwaki molangi ya mafuta, asopaki yango na moto ya Saulo, ayambaki ye mpe alobaki: « Boni, Yawe apakoli yo mafuta te mpo ete ozala mokambi ya libula na Ye?
Then Samuel tooke a viole of oyle and powred it vpon his head, and kissed him, and saide, Hath not the Lord anointed thee to be gouernour ouer his inheritance?
2 Sima na yo kotika ngai na mokolo ya lelo, okokutana na mibali mibale pembeni ya kunda ya Rasheli, na Tselitsa, na bandelo ya mokili ya Benjame. Bakoloba na yo: ‹ Ba-ane oyo okendeki koluka emonani. Mpe, sik’oyo, tata na yo atiki komitungisa na tina na yango, kasi akomi nde komitungisa mpo na bino. Azali komituna: ‘Nakosala nini mpo na mwana na ngai ya mobali.’ › »
When thou shalt depart from me this day, thou shalt finde two men by Rahels sepulchre in the border of Beniamin, euen at Zelzah, and they will say vnto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seeke, are founde: and lo, thy father hath left the care of the asses, and soroweth for you, saying, What shall I doe for my sonne?
3 Kolongwa wana, okokende mwa mosika kino okokoma na nzete monene ya Tabori epai wapi okokutana na mibali misato oyo bakozala komata epai ya Nzambe, na Beteli. Moko akomema bana misato ya ntaba; mosusu, biteni misato ya mapa; mpe mosusu, molangi ya vino.
Then shalt thou go forth from thence and shalt come to the plaine of Tabor, and there shall meete thee three men going vp to God to Bethel: one carying three kiddes, and an other carying three loaues of bread, and another carying a bottle of wine:
4 Bakopesa yo mbote mpe bakokabela yo mapa mibale. Okozwa yango na maboko na bango.
And they will aske thee if all be well, and will giue thee the two loaues of bread, which thou shalt receiue of their handes.
5 Sima na yango, okokende na Gibea ya Nzambe epai wapi bayangeli ya Filisitia bazali. Wana okopusana na engumba, okokutana na ngulupa ya basakoli kowuta na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba. Liboso na bango, ekozala na babeti mandanda, bambunda ya mike, baflite mpe banzenze. Wana bakozala kobeta mindule, basakoli yango bakokoma kosakola.
After that shalt thou come to the hill of God, where is the garisons of the Philistims: and when thou art come thither to the citie, thou shalt meete a companie of Prophets comming downe from the hie place with a viole, and a tymbrell, and a pipe, and an harpe before them, and they shall prophecie.
6 Bongo Molimo na Yawe akokitela yo na nguya, okosakola elongo na bango, mpe okobongwana moto ya lolenge mosusu.
Then the Spirit of the Lord will come vpon thee, and thou shalt prophecie with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
7 Soki kaka omoni bilembo oyo kokokisama, wana sala na yo nyonso oyo okoki kosala mpo na yo moko, pamba te Nzambe azali elongo na yo.
Therefore when these signes shall come vnto to thee, doe as occasion shall serue: for God is with thee.
8 Bongo okotambola liboso na ngai mpo na kokende na Giligali, mpe ngai nakokuta yo kuna mpo na kobonza bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani. Kasi osengeli kozela mikolo sambo kino naya kokuta yo; mpe nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo osengeli kosala.
And thou shalt goe downe before me to Gilgal: and I also will come downe vnto thee to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace. Tary for me seuen dayes, till I come to thee and shewe thee what thou shalt doe.
9 Tango kaka Saulo abalukaki mpo na kotika Samuele, Nzambe abongolaki motema ya Saulo, mpe bilembo nyonso ekokisamaki mokolo wana kaka.
And when he had turned his backe to goe from Samuel, God gaue him another heart: and all those tokens came to passe that same day.
10 Tango bakomaki na Gibea, ngulupa ya basakoli ekutanaki na ye; bongo Molimo ya Nzambe akitelaki ye na nguya, mpe akomaki kosakola kati na bango.
And when they came thither to the hill, beholde, the companie of Prophets meete him, and the Spirit of God came vpon him, and he prophecied among them.
11 Tango bato nyonso oyo bayebi Saulo wuta kala bamonaki ye kosakola elongo na basakoli bamitunaki: « Likambo nini ekweyi na bomoi ya mwana mobali ya Kishi? Boni, Saulo mpe azali moko kati na basakoli? »
Therefore all the people that knewe him before, when they saw that he prophecied among the Prophets, saide eche to other, What is come vnto the sonne of Kish? is Saul also among the Prophets?
12 Moko kati na bato oyo bazalaki wana alobaki: « Bongo nani azali motambolisi na bango? » Ezali ndenge wana nde ebandaki lisese oyo: « Saulo mpe azali moko kati na basakoli? »
And one of the same place answered, and said, But who is their father? Therefore it was a prouerbe, Is Saul also among the Prophets?
13 Tango Saulo asilisaki kosakola, akendeki na esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba.
And when he had made an ende of prophecying, he came to the hie place.
14 Noko ya Saulo atunaki Saulo mpe mosali na ye: — Bokendeki wapi? Saulo azongisaki: — Tokendeki koluka ba-ane. Kasi lokola tomonaki yango te, yango wana tokendeki epai ya Samuele.
And Sauls vncle saide vnto him, and to his seruant, Whither went ye? And he saide, To seeke the asses: and when we sawe that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
15 Noko ya Saulo alobaki lisusu: — Nabondeli yo, yebisa ngai makambo oyo Samuele alobaki na bino.
And Sauls vncle saide, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said vnto you.
16 Saulo azongiselaki noko na ye: — Ayebisaki biso ete ba-ane ekomonana solo. Kasi Saulo ayebisaki noko na ye te makambo oyo Samuele alobaki na ye na tina na bokonzi.
Then Saul saide to his vncle, He tolde vs plainely that the asses were founde: but concerning the kingdome whereof Samuel spake, tolde he him not.
17 Samuele abengisaki, na Mitsipa, bato ya Isalaele liboso ya Yawe
And Samuel assembled the people vnto the Lord in Mizpeh,
18 mpe alobaki na bango: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Ngai moko nde nabimisaki Isalaele wuta na Ejipito mpe nakangolaki bino na maboko ya bato ya Ejipito mpe ya bokonzi nyonso oyo ezalaki konyokola bino. ›
And he saide vnto the children of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God of Israel, I haue brought Israel out of Egypt, and deliuered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the handes of all kingdomes that troubled you.
19 Kasi, na mokolo ya lelo, bobwaki Nzambe na bino, oyo abikisaka bino na pasi na bino nyonso mpe na minyoko na bino. Mpe bolobi na Ye: ‹ Ponela biso mokonzi oyo akokamba biso! › Lokola ezali bongo, botelema sik’oyo bino moko liboso ya Yawe kolanda bikolo mpe bituka na bino. »
But ye haue this day cast away your God, who onely deliuereth you out of all your aduersities and tribulations: and ye said vnto him, No, but appoint a King ouer vs. Nowe therefore stand ye before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your thousands.
20 Samuele abengaki ekolo moko na moko ya Isalaele, mpe ekolo ya Benjame eponamaki.
And when Samuel had gathered together all the tribes of Israel, the tribe of Beniamin was taken.
21 Abengaki etuka moko na moko ya ekolo ya Benjame, mpe etuka ya Matiri eponamaki. Na suka, ezalaki Saulo, mwana mobali ya Kishi, nde aponamaki. Kasi tango balukaki ye, bamonaki ye te.
Afterwarde he assembled the tribe of Beniamin according to their families, and the familie of Matri was taken. So Saul the sonne of Kish was taken, and when they sought him, he coulde not be found.
22 Boye, batunaki lisusu Yawe: — Boni, ezali lisusu na moto oyo ayaki awa? Yawe azongisaki: — Iyo! Botala ye wana, abombami kati na biloko.
Therefore they asked the Lord againe, if that man should yet come thither. And the Lord answered, Beholde, he hath hid himselfe among the stuffe.
23 Bapotaki mbangu mpo na kobimisa ye, mpe batelemisaki ye kati na bato; mpe emonanaki ete aleki bato nyonso na molayi.
And they ranne, and brought him thence: and when he stoode among the people, he was hier then any of the people from the shoulders vpwarde.
24 Bongo Samuele alobaki na bato nyonso: — Botala moto oyo Yawe aponi! Kati na bato nyonso, moko te akokani na ye. Bato bazongisaki na koganga: — Tika ete mokonzi awumela na bomoi!
And Samuel saide to all the people, See ye not him, whom the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? and all the people shouted and saide, God saue the King.
25 Samuele alimbolelaki bato makambo oyo etali bokonzi, akomaki yango na buku mpe atiaki liboso ya Yawe. Sima na yango, azongisaki bato, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
Then Samuel tolde the people the duetie of the kingdome, and wrote it in a booke, and laied it vp before the Lord, and Samuel sent all the people away euery man to his house.
26 Saulo mpe azongaki na ndako na ye, na Gibea, elongo na bilombe mibali oyo Nzambe asimbaki mitema na bango mpo ete balanda ye.
Saul also went home to Gibeah, and there followed him a bande of men, whose heart God had touched,
27 Kasi ezalaki na ndambo ya bato ya kilikili oyo bazalaki koloba: « Moto oyo akokoka kobikisa biso ndenge nini? » Batiolaki ye mpe bapesaki ye ata kado moko te. Kasi Saulo avandaki kimia.
But the wicked men saide, Howe shall hee saue vs? So they despised him, and brought him no presents: but he held his tongue.
