< 1 Samuele 22 >

1 Davidi alongwaki na Gati mpe akendeki kobombama na lidusu ya libanga ya Adulami. Tango bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe ya libota ya botata na ye bayokaki sango yango, bakitaki kuna epai na ye.
And David departed thence, and escaped; and he comes to the cave of Odollam, and his brethren hear, and the house of his father, and they go down to him there.
2 Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na minyoko, ba-oyo bazalaki na baniongo ya bato mosusu mpe ba-oyo mitema na bango ezoka, basanganaki zingazinga ya Davidi mpe akomaki mokambi na bango. Elongo na ye, ezalaki na bato pene nkama minei.
And there gathered to him every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was troubled in mind; and he was a leader over them, and there were with him about four hundred men.
3 Kolongwa wana, Davidi akendeki na Mitsipe ya Moabi mpe alobaki na mokonzi ya Moabi: « Nabondeli yo: Pesa tata na ngai mpe mama na ngai ndingisa ya koya kovanda elongo na yo kino ngai nakoyeba makambo oyo Nzambe akosala mpo na ngai. »
And David departed thence to Massephath of Moab, and said to the king of Moab, Let, I pray you, my father and my mother be with you, until I know what God will do to me.
4 Boye Davidi amemaki bango epai ya mokonzi ya Moabi, mpe bavandaki elongo na ye tango nyonso oyo Davidi azalaki kati na ndako ya makasi.
And he persuaded the King of Moab, and they dwell with him continually, while David was in the hold.
5 Kasi mosakoli Gadi alobaki na Davidi: « Kovanda te kati na ndako oyo batonga makasi, kende na mokili ya Yuda. » Boye Davidi alongwaki mpe akendeki na zamba ya Ereti.
And Gad the prophet said to David, Dwell not in the hold: go, and you shall enter the land of Juda. So David went, and came and lived in the city of Saric.
6 Saulo ayokaki ete bamonaki Davidi elongo na bato na ye. Wana Saulo azalaki na mopanga na loboko na ye mpe avandaki na Gibea, na likolo ya ngomba moke mpe na se ya nzete oyo babengi « Tamarisi » elongo na bakonzi nyonso ya mampinga na ye,
And Saul heard that David was discovered, and his men with him: now Saul lived in the hill below the field that is in Rama, and his spear [was] in his hand, and all his servants stood near him.
7 Saulo ayebisaki bango: « Bino bato ya Benjame boyoka, bokanisi ete mwana ya Izayi akopesa bino nyonso bilanga mpe bilanga ya vino? Bokanisi ete akokomisa bino bakonzi ya bankoto to bakonzi ya bankama ya basoda?
And Saul said to his servants that stood by him, Hear now, you sons of Benjamin, will the son of Jessae indeed give all of you fields and vineyards, and will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands?
8 Ezali mpo na yango nde bino nyonso bosalelaki ngai likita? Moto moko te alobi na ngai na tina na boyokani oyo mwana na ngai ya mobali asalaki na mwana ya Izayi, mpe moko te kati na bino ayokeli ngai mawa mpo ete ayebisa ngai ete mwana na ngai asaleli ngai likita mpo ete mosali na ngai atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo? »
That you are conspiring against me, and there is no one that informs me, whereas my son has made a covenant with the son of Jessae, and there is no one of you that is sorry for me, or informs me, that my son has stirred up my servant against me for an enemy, as [it is] this day?
9 Kasi Doegi, moto ya Edomi, oyo azalaki moko kati na basali ya Saulo, alobaki: « Namonaki mwana mobali ya Izayi koya na Nobi epai ya Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi.
And Doec the Syrian who was over the mules of Saul answered and said, I saw the son of Jessae as he came to Nomba to Abimelech son of Achitob the priest.
10 Ayimeleki atunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Yawe, mpe apesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga ya Goliati, moto ya Filisitia. »
And [the priest] enquired of God for him, and gave him provision, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
11 Boye mokonzi abengisaki Nganga-Nzambe Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi; elongo na Banganga-Nzambe nyonso, bato ya libota na ye ya botata, oyo bazalaki na Nobi. Mpe bango nyonso bayaki epai ya mokonzi.
And the king sent to call Abimelech son of Achitob and all his father's sons, the priests that were in Nomba; and they all came to the king.
12 Saulo alobaki: — Yoka sik’oyo, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi. Ayimeleki azongisaki: — Nazali koyoka yo, nkolo na ngai.
And Saul said, Hear now, you son of Achitob. And he said, Behold! I [am here], speak, [my] lord.
13 Saulo alobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini yo mpe mwana mobali ya Izayi bosalelaki ngai likita mpo na kotelemela ngai? Mpo na nini opesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga, mpe otunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Nzambe, mpo ete atelemela ngai mpe atiela ngai mitambo ndenge azali kosala yango na mokolo ya lelo?
And Saul said to him, Why have you and the son of Jessae conspired against me, that you should give him bread and a sword, and should enquire of God for him, to raise him up against me as an enemy, as [he is] this day?
14 Ayimeleki azongiselaki mokonzi: — Boni, ezali na moto moko kati na basali na yo nyonso oyo azali na boyengebene lokola Davidi? Ye oyo azali bokilo ya mokonzi, mokambi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka yo mpe moto oyo aleki na lokumu kati na libota na yo?
And he answered the king, and said, And who [is] there among all your servants faithful as David, and [he is] a son-in-law of the king, and [he is] executor of all your commands, and [is] honorable in your house?
15 Boni, mokolo wana ezalaki mbala na ngai ya liboso ya kotuna mpo na ye makambo epai ya Nzambe? Nakanisi ete ezali bongo te. Boye tika ete mokonzi atangela mosali na ye to moko kati na libota ya botata na ngai ngambo te; pamba te mosali na yo ayebi ata eloko moko te kati na likambo oyo nyonso.
Have I begun today to enquire of God for him? By no means: let not the king bring a charge against his servant, and against you whole of my father's house; for your servant knew not in all these matters anything great or small.
16 Kasi mokonzi alobaki: — Ayimeleki, okokufa solo; yo mpe libota mobimba ya botata na yo.
And king Saul said, You shall surely die, Abimelech, you, and all your father's house.
17 Boye, mokonzi atindaki bakengeli na ye, oyo bazalaki na mopanzi na ye: « Bobaluka mpe boboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe; pamba te bango mpe basungaki Davidi: bayebaki ete Davidi azalaki kokima kasi bayebisaki ngai te. » Kasi basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi baboyaki kosembola maboko na bango mpo na koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
And the king said to the footmen that attended on him, Draw near and kill the priests of the Lord, because their hand [is] with David, and because they knew that he fled, and they did not inform me. But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to fall upon the priest of the Lord.
18 Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya Doegi: « Yo, baluka mpe boma Banganga-Nzambe. » Boye Doegi, moto ya Edomi, abalukaki mpe abomaki bango. Na mokolo wana, abomaki bato tuku mwambe na mitano oyo balataki efode ya lino.
And the king said to Doec, Turn you, and fall upon the priests: and Doec the Syrian turned, and killed the priests of the Lord in that day, three hundred and five men, all wearing an ephod.
19 Abomaki lisusu na mopanga kati na Nobi, engumba ya Banganga-Nzambe, mibali, basi, bana mpe bana mike, bangombe, ba-ane mpe bameme.
And he struck Nomba the city of the priest with the edge of the sword, both man, and woman, infant and suckling, and calf, and ox, and sheep.
20 Kaka Abiatari, mwana mobali ya Ayimeleki mpe koko ya Ayitubi, nde abikaki mpe akimaki mpo na kokende kosangana na Davidi.
And one son of Abimelech son of Achitob escapes, and his name [was] Abiathar, and he fled after David.
21 Abiatari ayebisaki Davidi ete Saulo asili koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain all the priests of the Lord.
22 Boye Davidi alobaki na Abiatari: « Mokolo wana, nayebaki malamu ete lokola Doegi, moto ya Edomi, azalaki wana, akokaki kozanga te koyebisa Saulo. Boye ezali mpo na ngai nde bato nyonso ya libota ya botata na yo bakufi!
And David said to Abiathar, I knew it in that day, that Doec the Syrian would surely tell Saul: I am guilty of the death of the house of your father.
23 Sik’oyo, vanda awa elongo na ngai, kobanga te. Pamba te moto oyo azali koluka bomoi na yo azali koluka mpe bomoi na ngai. Okobatelama malamu epai na ngai. »
Dwell with me; fear not, for wherever I shall seek a place [of safety] for my life, I will also seek a place for your life, for you are safely guarded [while] with me.
