1 Samuele 2
1 Ana asambelaki na maloba oyo: Motema na ngai ezali kosepela mpo na Yawe mpo ete alendisi bomoi na ngai. Wana nazali na esengo mpo ete okangoli ngai, monoko na ngai ekotelemela banguna na ngai.
And Hannah prayed, and said, Mine heart reioyceth in the Lord, mine horne is exalted in the Lord: my mouth is enlarged ouer mine enemies, because I reioyce in thy saluation.
2 Moko te azali bule lokola Yawe; moko te, bobele Yo. Libanga moko te ezali lokola Nzambe na biso.
There is none holy as the Lord: yea, there is none besides thee, and there is no god like our God.
3 Bolobaloba maloba ebele te ya lolendo, mpe tika ete lofundu ebima na monoko na bino te, pamba te Yawe azali Nzambe oyo ayebi nyonso mpe asambisaka misala nyonso ya bato.
Speake no more presumptuously: let not arrogancie come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him enterprises are established.
4 Tolotolo ya bilombe ebukani, kasi bato na bolembu bazwi makasi.
The bow and the mightie men are broken, and the weake haue girded themselues with strength.
5 Bato oyo bazalaki na bozwi ebele bakomi koluka mosala mpo na bilei, kasi ba-oyo bazalaki kokelela batiki kosala. Mwasi oyo abotaki te akobota mbala sambo, kasi mwasi oyo abotaki bana ebele akobota lisusu te.
They that were full, are hired foorth for bread, and the hungrie are no more hired, so that the barren hath borne seuen: and shee that had many children, is feeble.
The Lord killeth and maketh aliue: bringeth downe to the graue and raiseth vp. (Sheol h7585)
7 Yawe akomisaka moto mobola, mpe akomisaka moto mozwi; akitisaka mpe atombolaka.
The Lord maketh poore and maketh rich: bringeth lowe, and exalteth.
8 Alongolaka mobola na putulu, mpe abimisaka na fulu moto oyo azanga; mpo ete avandisa bango esika moko na bato ya lokumu mpe apesa bango kiti ya lokumu lokola libula. Pamba te miboko ya mabele ezali ya Yawe, mpe ezali na likolo na yango nde atia mokili.
He raiseth vp ye poore out of the dust, and lifteth vp the begger from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherite the seate of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lordes, and he hath set the world vpon them.
9 Yawe akobatelaka makolo ya babulami na Ye, kasi bato mabe bakobunga kati na molili. Moto akotikala kolonga te na makasi na ye moko.
Hee will keepe the feete of his Saintes, and the wicked shall keepe silence in darkenes: for in his owne might shall no man be strong.
10 Bato oyo batiaka tembe na Yawe bakopanzana, pamba te akokweyisela bango kake wuta na likolo. Yawe akosambisa mokili mobimba, akopesa mokonzi na yango nguya mpe akobakisa makasi ya mopakolami na Ye.
The Lordes aduersaries shall be destroyed, and out of heauen shall he thunder vpon them: the Lord shall iudge the endes of the worlde, and shall giue power vnto his King, and exalt the horne of his Anoynted.
11 Sima na yango, Elikana azongaki na ndako na ye, na Rama; kasi mwana atikalaki mpo na kosalela Yawe na bokambami ya Nganga-Nzambe Eli.
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house, and the childe did minister vnto the Lord before Eli the Priest.
12 Bana mibali ya Eli bazalaki kilikili, bayebaki Yawe te.
Now the sonnes of Eli were wicked men, and knewe not the Lord.
13 Tala ndenge nini Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazalaki kosala na miso ya bato: tango nyonso moto moko azalaki koya kobonza mbeka, mosali ya Nganga-Nzambe azalaki koya na ngonga ya kotumba mbeka yango, azalaki kosimba kanya ya misapi misato na loboko na ye,
For the Priestes custome towarde the people was this: when any man offered sacrifice, the Priestes boy came, while the flesh was seething, and a fleshhooke with three teeth, in his hand,
14 azalaki kokotisa yango na sani, na nzungu, na kikalungu to na mbeki; mpe azalaki kokamata, mpo na Nganga-Nzambe, eteni nyonso ya nyama oyo ezalaki kokangama na kanya. Ezali ndenge wana nde bana mibali ya Eli bazalaki kosala epai ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kokende kuna na Silo.
And thrust it into the kettle, or into the caldron, or into the panne, or into the potte: all that the fleshhooke brought vp, the Priest tooke for himselfe: thus they did vnto all the Israelites, that came thither to Shiloh.
15 Kutu, liboso ete mafuta ya mbeka etumbama, mosali ya Nganga-Nzambe azalaki koya koloba na moto oyo azalaki kobonza mbeka: « Longolaka libela eteni ya Nganga-Nzambe, pamba te akondima te kozwa na maboko na yo nyama oyo yo moko otumbi; kasi akondima kaka nyama ya mobesu. »
Yea, before they burnt the fat, the priests boy came and saide to the man that offered, Giue me flesh to rost for the priest: for he wil not haue sodden flesh of thee, but rawe.
16 Bongo soki moto yango azongiseli mosali ya Nganga-Nzambe: « Tika ete mafuta etumbama nanu, bongo okozwa, na sima, eteni oyo olingi, » mosali azalaki kozongisa: « Te! Pesa ngai yango nde sik’oyo, noki te nakozwa yango na makasi. »
And if any man saide vnto him, Let them burne the fatte according to the custome, then take as much as thine heart desireth: then hee would answere, No, but thou shalt giue it nowe: and if thou wilt not, I will take it by force.
17 Lisumu oyo ya bana mibali ya Eli ezalaki monene na miso ya Yawe, pamba te bazalaki kozwa na limemia te mbeka oyo ebonzami mpo na Yawe.
Therefore the sinne of the yong men was very great before the Lord: for men abhorred the offering of the Lord.
18 Kasi Samuele azalaki kosala mosala na ye liboso ya Yawe. Elenge mobali Samuele azalaki kolata efode ya lino.
Now Samuel being a yong childe ministred before the Lord, girded with a linen Ephod.
19 Mibu nyonso, mama na ye azalaki kotongela ye nzambala ya moke, mpe azalaki komemela ye yango tango nyonso azalaki kokende elongo na mobali na ye mpo na kobonza mbeka.
And his mother made him a litle coat, and brought it to him from yeere to yeere, when she came vp with her husband, to offer the yerely sacrifice.
20 Eli azalaki kopambola Elikana mpe mwasi na ye na maloba oyo: « Tika ete Yawe apesa yo bana na nzela ya mwasi oyo, mpo na kozwa esika ya mwana oyo asengaki na mabondeli mpe abonzaki epai na Yawe! » Sima na yango, bazongaki epai na bango.
And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The Lord giue thee seede of this woman, for the petition that she asked of the Lord: and they departed vnto their place.
21 Yawe asalelaki Ana ngolu, mpe Ana azwaki lisusu bazemi, abotaki bana mibali misato mpe bana basi mibale. Nzokande elenge mobali Samuele azalaki kokola liboso ya Yawe.
And the Lord visited Hannah, so that she conceiued, and bare three sonnes, and two daughters. And the childe Samuel grewe before the Lord.
22 Eli akomaki mobange makasi, mpe azalaki koyoka makambo nyonso oyo bana na ye ya mibali bazalaki kosala epai ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele; azalaki mpe koyoka ete bazalaki kosangisa nzoto na basi oyo bazalaki kosala na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
So Eli was very olde, and heard all that his sonnes did vnto all Israel, and howe they laye with the women that assembled at the doore of the tabernacle of the Congregation.
23 Alobaki na bango: « Mpo na nini bozali kosala makambo mabe boye? Nazali koyoka bato nyonso kolobela yango.
And hee saide vnto them, Why doe ye such things? for of all this people I heare euill reportes of you.
24 Te, bana na ngai! Sango oyo nazali koyoka bato ya Yawe kopanza na tina na bino ezali malamu te.
Do no more, my sonnes, for it is no good report that I heare, which is, that ye make the Lords people to trespasse.
25 Pamba te soki moto asali moninga na ye mabe, Nzambe akosambisa ye; kasi soki moto asali lisumu epai na Yawe, nani akoloba mpo na ye? » Kasi bana batikalaki koyokela tata na bango te, pamba te ezalaki mokano ya Yawe mpo na koboma bango.
If one man sinne against another, the Iudge shall iudge it: but if a man sinne against the Lord, who will pleade for him? Notwithstanding they obeyed not the voyce of their father, because the Lord would slay them.
26 Elenge mobali Samuele akobaki kokola na nzoto, mpe azalaki kosepelisa Yawe mpe bato.
(Nowe the childe Samuel profited and grewe, and was in fauour both with the Lord and also with men)
27 Mokolo moko, moto moko na Nzambe ayaki epai ya Eli mpe alobaki na ye: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Boni, namimonisaki te na polele epai ya libota ya tata na yo tango bazalaki na Ejipito, na se ya bokonzi ya Faraon?
And there came a man of God vnto Eli, and said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Did not I plainely appeare vnto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaohs house?
28 Naponaki tata na yo kati na bikolo nyonso ya Isalaele mpo ete asalela Ngai lokola Nganga-Nzambe, mpo ete amata na etumbelo na Ngai, atumba mbeka ya malasi mpe alata efode liboso na Ngai. Napesaki lisusu, na libota ya tata na yo, makabo nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele, makabo oyo bazikisa na moto.
And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my Priest, to offer vpon mine altar, and to burne incense, and to weare an Ephod before me, and I gaue vnto the house of thy father all the offrings made by fire of the children of Israel.
29 Bongo mpo na nini bozali kozwa na limemia te bambeka mpe makabo na Ngai, oyo napeselaki mitindo ete epesama kati na Ndako na Ngai? Mpo na nini ozali kopesa bana na yo ya mibali lokumu koleka Ngai, na ndenge bozali kolia biteni oyo eleki kitoko kati na bambeka oyo bato na Ngai, Isalaele, bazali kobonzela Ngai?
Wherefore haue you kicked against my sacrifice and mine offering, which I commanded in my Tabernacle, and honourest thy children aboue mee, to make your selues fatte of the first fruites of all the offerings of Israel my people?
30 Lokola ezali bongo, tala makambo oyo Ngai Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, nalobi: ‹ Nalakaki ete libota na yo mpe libota ya tata na yo bakosalela Ngai tango nyonso lokola Banganga-Nzambe. › Kasi sik’oyo, Ngai Yawe nalobi: ‹ Esili! Mosika na Ngai elaka oyo! Bato oyo bazali kopesa Ngai lokumu, bango kaka nde Ngai nakopesa lokumu; kasi ba-oyo bazali kotiola Ngai, nakoyokisa bango soni.
Wherefore the Lord God of Israel saith, I saide, that thine house and the house of thy father should walke before mee for euer: but nowe the Lord saith, It shall not be so: for them that honour me, I will honour, and they that despise me, shall be despised.
31 Mpe na mikolo oyo ezali koya, nakokomisa mikolo na yo mpe ya libota na yo mikuse, mpe mobange akotikala kozala lisusu te kati na molongo ya libota na yo.
Beholde, the dayes come, that I will cut off thine arme, and the arme of thy fathers house, that there shall not be an olde man in thine house.
32 Atako bakosalela Isalaele bolamu, kasi yo okomona pasi kati na Ndako na Ngai; mpe mobange akotikala kozala lisusu te kati na molongo ya libota na yo.
And thou shalt see thine enemie in the habitation of the Lord in all thinges wherewith God shall blesse Israel, and there shall not be an olde man in thine house for euer.
33 Nzokande, kati na bato na yo, ekozala na moto moko oyo nakolongola te liboso ya etumbelo na Ngai, mpo ete obanda koyokelaka ye zuwa mpe obanda kozikaka motema; kasi bana nyonso oyo bakobotama na ndako na yo bakokufa na bolenge na bango.
Neuerthelesse, I will not destroy euery one of thine from mine altar, to make thine eyes to faile, and to make thine heart sorowfull: and all ye multitude of thine house shall die when they be men.
34 Mpe makambo oyo ekokweyela bana na yo mibale ya mibali, Ofini mpe Fineasi, ekozala elembo mpo na yo: bango mibale bakokufa mokolo moko.
And this shalbe a signe vnto thee, that shall come vpon thy two sonnes Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die both.
35 Nakomiponela Nganga-Nzambe ya sembo oyo akosala kolanda motema mpe makanisi na Ngai. Nakobongisela ye libota moko oyo ekowumela, mpe akosala tango nyonso mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe liboso ya mopakolami na Ngai.
And I will stirre me vp a faithfull Priest, that shall do according to mine heart and according to my minde: and I wil build him a sure house, and he shall walke before mine Anointed for euer.
36 Bongo moto nyonso oyo akotikala kati na libota na yo akobanda koya kofukama liboso na ye mpo na kozwa mbongo moko ya palata mpe eteni ya lipa, mpe akoloba: ‘Kotisa ngai ata na mosala moko kati na misala ya bonganga-Nzambe mpo ete nazwaka ata eteni ya lipa.’ › »
And all that are left in thine house, shall come and bowe downe to him for a piece of siluer and a morsell of bread, and shall say, Appoint me, I pray thee, to one of the priestes offices, that I may eate a morsell of bread.
