1 Samuele 28
1 Na tango wana, bato ya Filisitia basangisaki mampinga na bango ya basoda mpo na kobundisa Isalaele. Akishi alobaki na Davidi: — Osengeli koyeba ete yo mpe bato na yo bokokende na bitumba elongo na ngai.
And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shall go out with me in the army, thou and thy men.
2 Davidi azongiselaki Akishi: — Okomona yo moko makambo oyo mosali na yo azali na makoki ya kosala. Akishi alobaki na Davidi: — Malamu mingi! Nakokomisa yo mpo na libela soda oyo abatelaka ngai.
And David said to Achish, Therefore thou shall know what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore I will make thee my chief bodyguard forever.
3 Nzokande Samuele akufaki, mpe Isalaele mobimba esalelaki ye matanga. Bakundaki ye na Rama, engumba na ye. Saulo abenganaki na mokili na ye bato oyo basololaka na bakufi mpe bato na soloka.
Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
4 Wana bato ya Filisitia basanganaki mpe bayaki kotonga molako, na Sunemi, Saulo mpe asangisaki bato nyonso ya Isalaele mpe batongaki molako na Giliboa.
And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and encamped in Shunem. And Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped in Gilboa.
5 Tango Saulo amonaki mampinga ya bato ya Filisitia, abangaki mpe somo etondaki na motema na ye.
And when Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
6 Saulo atunaki Yawe, kasi Yawe ayanolaki te, ezala na nzela ya ndoto, ya Urimi to ya basakoli.
And when Saul inquired of Jehovah, Jehovah answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
7 Bongo, Saulo alobaki na basali na ye: — Bolukela ngai mwasi oyo asololaka na bakufi mpo ete nakende kotuna ye. Basali na ye bazongisaki: — Tala, ezali na mwasi moko na Eyini-Dori.
Then Saul said to his servants, Seek me a woman who has a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a familiar spirit at En-dor.
8 Boye Saulo amibongolaki, alataki bilamba mosusu mpe akendeki epai ya mwasi yango, na butu, elongo na mibali mibale. Alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, solola na bakufi mpo na ngai, mpe bimisela ngai moto oyo nakotanga kombo na ye.
And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and went, he and two men with him. And they came to the woman by night, and he said, Divine to me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomever I shall name to thee.
9 Kasi mwasi yango alobaki na ye: — Oyebi solo makambo oyo Saulo asalaki. Abenganaki na mokili, bato oyo basololaka na bakufi mpe bato na soloka. Bongo mpo na nini otieli bomoi na ngai motambo mpo na kobomisa ngai?
And the woman said to him, Behold, thou know what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land. Why then do thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
10 Saulo alapaki ndayi epai na ye na Kombo na Yawe, alobaki: « Na Kombo na Yawe, okozwa solo etumbu te mpo na yango. »
And Saul swore to her by Jehovah, saying, As Jehovah lives, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
11 Bongo mwasi yango atunaki: — Nabimisela yo nani? Saulo azongisaki: — Bimisela ngai Samuele.
Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
12 Tango mwasi yango amonaki Samuele, agangaki makasi mpe alobaki na Saulo: — Mpo na nini okosi ngai? Ozali Saulo!
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice. And the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why have thou deceived me? For thou are Saul.
13 Mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Kobanga te, omoni nini? Mwasi alobaki na Saulo: — Namoni nzambe moko kobima na mabele.
And the king said to her, Be not afraid, for what do thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
14 Saulo atunaki ye: — Azali ndenge nini? Mwasi azongisaki: — Ezali mobange mobali moko nde azali komata mpe alati kazaka. Bongo tango Saulo asosolaki ete ezali Samuele, akitaki mpe agumbamaki elongi kino na mabele.
And he said to her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man comes up, and he is covered with a robe. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance.
15 Samuele alobaki na Saulo: — Mpo na nini otungisi ngai mpe obimisi ngai? Saulo alobaki: — Nazali na pasi makasi: bato ya Filisitia bazali kobundisa ngai; bongo Nzambe apesi ngai mokongo, azali koyanola ngai te, ezala na nzela ya basakoli to ya bandoto. Yango wana nabengi yo mpo ete oyebisa ngai likambo nini nakoki kosala.
And Samuel said to Saul, Why have thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am greatly distressed, for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams. Therefore I have called thee, that thou may make known to me what I shall do.
16 Samuele alobaki: — Mpo na nini ozali kotuna ngai, awa Yawe asili kopesa yo mokongo mpe akomi monguna na yo?
And Samuel said, Why then do thou ask of me, since Jehovah departed from thee, and has become thine adversary?
17 Yawe akokisi kaka makambo oyo asakolaki na nzela na ngai: Yawe abotoli bokonzi na maboko na yo mpe apesi yango na moninga na yo, Davidi,
And Jehovah has done to thee, as he spoke by me. And Jehovah has torn the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbor, even to David.
18 pamba te otosaki Yawe te mpe okweyiselaki te bato ya Amaleki kanda ya Yawe na koboma bango nyonso. Yango wana Yawe asali yo bongo lelo.
Because thou obeyed not the voice of Jehovah, and did not execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore Jehovah has done this thing to thee this day.
19 Yawe akokaba yo mpe Isalaele na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia.
Moreover Jehovah will deliver Israel also with thee into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow thou and thy sons shall be with me. Jehovah will also deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
20 Mbala moko, Saulo abombamaki na mabele mpe ayokaki maloba ya Samuele somo mingi. Nzoto na ye elembaki mpo ete aliaki eloko moko te mokolo mobimba mpe butu mobimba.
Then Saul fell straightaway his full length upon the earth, and was greatly afraid because of the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
21 Tango mwasi apusanaki pembeni ya Saulo mpe amonaki ete azali lisusu na kimia te, alobaki na ye: — Tala, mwasi mosali na yo atosaki yo. Nandimaki kokufa mpo na kaka kosala makambo oyo otindaki ngai.
And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was greatly troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy handmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spoke to me.
22 Sik’oyo, yo mpe, nabondeli yo: yoka mwasi mosali na yo, mpe tika ete ngai napesa yo bilei mpo ete olia mpe ozwa makasi ya kokoba nzela na yo.
Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee, and eat, that thou may have strength when thou go on thy way.
23 Kasi Saulo aboyaki mpe alobaki: — Nakolia te. Kasi lokola basali na ye elongo na mwasi batiaki molende, Saulo ayokelaki bango. Saulo alamukaki mpe avandaki na mbeto.
But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, constrained him, and he hearkened to their voice. So he arose from the ground, and sat upon the bed.
24 Mwasi azalaki na mwana ngombe ya mafuta epai na ye, na etonga. Abonzaki yango noki-noki lokola mbeka. Akamataki farine, asangisaki yango mpe atumbelaki bango mapa ezanga levire.
And the woman had a fatted calf in the house. And she hastened, and killed it, and she took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread of it.
25 Atiaki yango liboso ya Saulo mpe liboso ya basali na ye, mpe baliaki. Bongo na butu wana kaka, batelemaki mpe bakendeki.
And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants, and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
