1 Samuele 30
1 Davidi mpe bato na ye bakomaki na Tsikilagi, na mokolo ya misato. Na tango wana mpe, bato ya Amaleki bakotaki na ngambo ya Sude mpe na Tsikilagi. Babundisaki Tsikilagi mpe batumbaki yango.
Now when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made an attack on the South and on Ziklag, and had overcome Ziklag and put it on fire;
2 Bakangaki na bowumbu basi mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna, ezala bilenge to mikolo, kasi babomaki moko te kati na bango. Bamemaki bango mpe bazongelaki nzela na bango.
And had made the women and all who were there, small and great, prisoners: they had not put any of them to death, but had taken them all away.
3 Tango Davidi mpe bato na ye bakomaki na engumba Tsikilagi, bakutaki yango ebebisama na moto. Basi na bango, bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi bakomaki bawumbu.
And when David and his men came to the town, they saw that it had been burned down, and their wives and their sons and daughters had been made prisoners.
4 Davidi mpe bato na ye balelaki makasi kino bazangaki makasi ya kolela.
Then David and the people who were with him gave themselves up to weeping till they were able to go on weeping no longer.
5 Bamemaki mpe na bowumbu basi mibale ya Davidi: Ayinoami, moto ya Jizireyeli; mpe Abigayili, moto ya Karimeli, oyo akufisaki mobali, Nabali.
And David's two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel, had been made prisoners.
6 Davidi ayokaki pasi makasi na motema, pamba te bato bazalaki komibongisa mpo na koboma ye na mabanga, mpo ete moto nyonso azalaki na pasi na motema mpo na bana na ye ya mibali mpe ya basi. Kasi Davidi amilendisaki kati na Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
And David was greatly troubled; for the people were talking of stoning him, because their hearts were bitter, every man sorrowing for his sons and his daughters: but David made himself strong in the Lord his God.
7 Boye Davidi alobaki na Nganga-Nzambe Abiatari, mwana mobali ya Ayimeleki: « Memela ngai efode. » Mpe Abiatari amemelaki ye yango.
And David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, Come here to me with the ephod. And Abiathar took the ephod to David.
8 Bongo Davidi atunaki Yawe: — Nakoki na ngai kolanda lisanga oyo ya miyibi? Nakokoka na ngai kokanga bango? Yawe azongiselaki ye: — Landa bango, okokanga bango solo mpe okokangola bakangami.
Then David, questioning the Lord, said, Am I to go after this band? will I be able to overtake them? And in answer he said, Go after them, for you will certainly overtake them, and get back everything.
9 Davidi akendeki elongo na basoda na ye, nkama motoba. Bakomaki na moluka ya lubwaku ya Besori epai wapi ba-oyo bazalaki kotikala na sima batelemaki;
So David went, and his six hundred men went with him, and they came to the stream Besor.
10 pamba te mibali nkama mibale balembaki makasi, bongo bakokaki te kokatisa moluka. Kasi Davidi elongo na basoda na ye, nkama minei, bakobaki kolanda.
And David, with four hundred men, went on: but two hundred of them were overcome with weariness, and not able to go across the stream.
11 Basoda ya Davidi bakutanaki na mobali moko ya Ejipito kati na zamba mpe bamemaki ye epai ya Davidi. Bapesaki ye mayi ya komela mpe biloko ya kolia.
And in the fields they saw an Egyptian whom they took to David, and they gave him bread, and he had a meal, and they gave him water for drink;
12 Bapesaki ye gato basala na bambuma ya figi mpe maboke mibale ya bambuma ya vino ekawuka. Sima na ye kolia yango, azwaki lisusu makasi, pamba te aliaki te mpe amelaki te wuta mikolo misato mpe babutu misato.
And they gave him part of a cake of figs and some dry grapes; and after the food, his spirit came back to him, for he had had no food or drink for three days and nights.
13 Davidi atunaki ye: — Ozali na ngambo ya banani mpe owuti wapi? Azongiselaki ye: — Nazali moto ya Ejipito mpe mowumbu ya moto moko ya Amaleki. Esali mikolo misato wuta nkolo na ngai atikalaki kosundola ngai mpo ete nazalaki kobela.
And David said to him, Whose man are you and where do you come from? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master went on without me because three days back I became ill.
14 Tokotaki na ngambo ya Sude ya bato ya Kereti, ya etuka ya Yuda, mpe na ngambo ya Sude ya Kalebi; mpe totumbaki na moto Tsikilagi.
We made an attack on the south part of the country of the Cherethites, and on the land which is Judah's, and on the south of Caleb; and we put Ziklag on fire.
15 Davidi atunaki ye: — Okoki komema ngai na bisika oyo lisanga ya miyibi wana ezali? Azongisaki: — Yo, lapa nanu ndayi epai na ngai liboso ya Nzambe ete okoboma ngai te mpe okozongisa ngai te epai ya nkolo na ngai; bongo ngai nakomema yo epai bango bazali.
And David said to him, Will you take me down to this band? And he said, If you give me your oath that you will not put me to death or give me up to my master, I will take you to them.
16 Boye amemaki Davidi na esika oyo bato ya Amaleki bazalaki. Mpe bamonaki ete bazalaki ya kopanzana na mboka mobimba, bazalaki kolia, komela mpe kobina mpo na ebele ya bomengo ya bitumba oyo babotolaki na mokili ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya Yuda.
And when he had taken him down, they saw them all, seated about on all sides, feasting and drinking among all the mass of goods which they had taken from the land of the Philistines and the land of Judah.
17 Davidi alongaki bango kobanda na tongo kino na pokwa ya mokolo oyo elandaki. Moko te abikaki, longola kaka bilenge mibali nkama minei oyo bamataki na likolo ya bashamo mpe bakimaki.
And David went on fighting them from evening till the evening of the day after; and not one of them got away but only four hundred young men who went in flight on camels.
18 Davidi akangolaki biloko nyonso oyo bato ya Amaleki bazwaki elongo na basi na ye mibale.
And David got back everything the Amalekites had taken; and he got back his two wives.
19 Moto na bango moko te azangaki: ezala elenge, mokolo, mwana mobali, mwana mwasi, eloko moko kati na bomengo ya bitumba to eloko moko kati na biloko oyo babotolaki bango. Davidi azongaki na biloko nyonso.
There was no loss of anything, small or great, sons or daughters or goods or anything which they had taken away: David got it all back.
20 Davidi akamataki bameme mpe bangombe nyonso. Bato oyo bazalaki kotambola liboso ya bibwele mpo na kolakisa yango nzela bazalaki koloba: « Tala bomengo ya bitumba ya Davidi. »
And they took all the flocks and herds, and driving them in front of him, said, These are David's.
21 Bongo Davidi akomaki epai ya mibali nkama mibale oyo bakokaki kolanda ye te mpo ete balembaki makasi, mpe batikaki bango na lubwaku ya Besori. Mibali yango babimaki mpo na koyamba Davidi mpe bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ye. Boye Davidi mpe bato na ye bapusanaki mpe bapesaki bango mbote.
And David came to the two hundred men, who because of weariness had not gone with him, but were waiting at the stream Besor: and they went out, meeting David and the people who were with him; and when they came near them, they said, How are you?
22 Kasi kati na bato oyo bakendeki elongo na Davidi, bato nyonso ya mabe mpe batomboki balobaki: — Lokola bakendeki na biso te, tokoki kokabola na bango te bomengo ya bitumba. Tika ete moto na moto azwa kaka mwasi na ye elongo na bana na ye mpe akende.
Then the bad and good-for-nothing men among those who went with David said, Because they did not go with us, we will give them nothing of the goods which we have got back, but only to every man his wife and children, so that he may take them and go.
23 Kasi Davidi alobaki: — Te, bandeko na ngai ya mibali! Bokoki kosala boye te mpo na biloko oyo Yawe apesi biso! Pamba te abateli biso mpe akabi na maboko na biso mampinga nyonso oyo eyaki kobundisa biso.
Then David said, You are not to do this, my brothers, after what the Lord has given us, who has kept us safe and given up the band which came against us into our hands.
24 Nani akoki kondima bino na makambo oyo bozali koloba? Eteni ya moto oyo atikalaki kokengela biloko mpe eteni ya moto oyo akendeki na bitumba esengeli kozala ndenge moko. Tokokabola nyonso ndenge moko.
Who is going to give any attention to you in this question? for an equal part will be given to him who went to the fight and to him who was waiting by the goods: they are all to have the same.
25 Kobanda mokolo wana kino lelo, Davidi akomisaki yango mobeko mpe malako kati na Isalaele.
And so he made it a rule and an order for Israel from that day till now.
26 Tango Davidi akomaki na Tsikilagi, atindaki ndambo ya bomengo ya bitumba epai ya bampaka ya Yuda, oyo bazalaki baninga na ye. Alobaki: « Tala kado mpo na bino kowuta na bomengo ya bitumba ya banguna ya Yawe. »
And when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the goods to the responsible men of Judah, and to his friends, saying, Here is an offering for you from the goods of those who were fighting against the Lord;
27 Atindaki ndambo epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki na Beteli, na ngambo ya sude ya Ramoti mpe na Yatiri;
He sent to those who were in Beth-el, and in Ramah of the South, and in Jattir;
28 mpe epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki na Aroeri, na Sipimoti, na Eshitemoa;
And to those in Arara and Eshtemoa
29 mpe epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki na Rakali, kati na bingumba ya bato ya Yerameeli, ya bato ya Keni;
and Carmel and in the towns of the Jerahmeelites, and in the towns of the Kenites;
30 epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki na Orima, na Bori-Ashani, na Ataki;
And to those who were in Hormah and in Bor-ashan and in Athach;
31 epai ya ba-oyo bazalaki na Ebron mpe na bisika nyonso oyo Davidi mpe bato na ye balekaki.
And in Hebron, and to all the places where David and his men had been living.
