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 to the cave 'Adullam: and when his brothers and all his father's house heard it, they went down to him thither.
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 themselves unto him every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one that had an embittered spirit; and he became a captain 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 went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, go forth with you, until I can know what God will do for 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 conducted them to the presence of the king of Moab: and they remained with him all the time that David was in the strong-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 the prophet Gad said unto David, Thou must not remain in the strong-hold: depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Chereth.
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 the men that were with him, [now Saul was sitting in Gib'ah under the tamarisk on the hill, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about 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?
Then said Saul unto his servants that stood about him, Hear, I pray you, men of Benjamin! will the son of Jesse give, indeed, to every one of you fields and vineyards? will he appoint you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds?
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 ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none that informeth me, while my son hath made a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is concerned for me, or informeth me that my son hath stirred up my servant to lie in wait against me, 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.
Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Achimelech the son of Achitub.
10 Ayimeleki atunaki mpo na ye makambo epai na Yawe, mpe apesaki ye bilei mpe mopanga ya Goliati, moto ya Filisitia. »
And he asked counsel for him of the Lord, and he gave him provision, and gave him also 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.
Then sent the king to call Achimelech, the son of Achitub, the priest, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob: and they came, all of them, 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, thou son of Achitub. And he said, here am I, 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 unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou didst give him bread, and a sword, and hast asked counsel for him of God, that he should rise to lie in wait against me, as it 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?
Then answered Achimelech the king, and said, And who is among all thy servants so trusted as David, and the king's son-in-law, and freely admitted to thy private council, and is honored in thy 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.
Did I this day then begin to ask counsel for him of God? far be it from me; let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, [nor] to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew not of all this, either a little or great thing.
16 Kasi mokonzi alobaki: — Ayimeleki, okokufa solo; yo mpe libota mobimba ya botata na yo.
And the king said, Thou shalt surely die, Achimelech, thou, and all thy 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 unto the runners that stood about him, Turn round and slay the priests of the Lord; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he was fleeing, and did not disclose it to me. But the servants of the king would not stretch forth their hand to fall upon the priests 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 Doeg, Turn thou round, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned round, and he fell upon the priests, and slew on that day eighty and five persons that did wear a linen 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 Nob, the city of the priests, he smote with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and lambs, with the edge of the sword.
20 Kaka Abiatari, mwana mobali ya Ayimeleki mpe koko ya Ayitubi, nde abikaki mpe akimaki mpo na kokende kosangana na Davidi.
And there escaped one of the sons of Achimelech the son of Achitub, whose name was Ebyathar, and he fled after David.
21 Abiatari ayebisaki Davidi ete Saulo asili koboma Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe.
And Ebyathar told David that Saul had slain 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 unto Ebyathar, I knew on that day, because Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul: I have myself occasioned the death of all the persons of thy father's house.
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. »
Remain thou with me, fear nothing; for he that will seek my life will seek thy life; but thou shalt be well guarded with me.
