2 Samuele 13

1 Abisalomi, mwana mobali ya Davidi, azalaki na ndeko moko ya mwasi ya kitoko makasi; kombo na ye ezalaki « Tamari. » Aminoni, mwana mobali mosusu ya Davidi, akomaki kolinga ye ndenge mwasi mpe mobali balinganaka.

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

2 Aminoni atungisamaki makasi na motema kino abelaki maladi ya bolingo likolo ya Tamari, ndeko na ye ya mwasi; pamba te ayebaki nanu nzoto ya mibali te mpe ekokaki kosalema te ete Aminoni abenga ye mpo na kosolola.

And Amnon was so vexed that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do any thing unto her.

3 Nzokande Aminoni azalaki na moninga na ye moko ya mobali; kombo na ye ezalaki « Yonadabi, » mwana mobali ya Shimea, ndeko mobali ya Davidi. Yonadabi azalaki na mayele mabe mingi.

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.

4 Atunaki Aminoni: — Mpo na nini yo mwana mobali ya mokonzi ozalaka tango nyonso mawa-mawa boye? Okoki koyebisa ngai te mpo na nini ozalaka bongo? Aminoni alobaki na ye: — Nalingaka Tamari, ndeko mwasi ya Abisalomi, ndeko na ngai ya mobali.

And he said unto him, Why, O son of the king, art thou thus lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.

5 Yonadabi alobaki na ye: — Oh, sala boye: « Kende na mbeto mpe kosana kobela. Tango tata na yo akoya kotala yo, okoloba na ye: ‹ Nalingi ete Tamari, ndeko na ngai ya mwasi, aya kopesa ngai eloko ya kolia. Tika ete alamba biloko na miso na ngai mpo ete namona ye mpe nakoka kolia na loboko na ye. › »

And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.

6 Aminoni amitandaki na mbeto mpe akosanaki kobela. Tango mokonzi ayaki mpo na kotala ye, Aminoni alobaki na ye: « Nalingi ete Tamari, ndeko na ngai ya mwasi, aya kolambela ngai na miso na ngai bagalete mibale ya kitoko mpo ete nakoka kolia yango na loboko na ye. »

So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.

7 Davidi atindaki maloba epai ya Tamari oyo azalaki kati na shambre na ye: « Kende na ndako ya Aminoni, ndeko na yo ya mobali, mpe lambela ye biloko. »

Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon’s house, and dress him food.

8 Boye Tamari akendeki na ndako ya Aminoni, ndeko na ye ya mobali, oyo azalaki ya kolala. Akamataki farine, asangisaki yango, asalaki bagalete na miso na ye mpe atumbaki yango.

So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was laid down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.

9 Alongolaki yango na kikalungu mpe apesaki yango na Aminoni, kasi Aminoni aboyaki kolia. Aminoni alobaki: — Bimisa bato nyonso libanda. Bato nyonso babimaki.

And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.

10 Aminoni alobaki na Tamari: — Memela ngai biloko ya kolia awa kati na shambre na ngai ya kolala mpo ete nalia yango wuta na loboko na yo. Tamari azwaki bagalete oyo asalaki mpe amemaki yango epai ya Aminoni, ndeko na ye ya mobali, kati na shambre na ye ya kolala.

And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.

11 Tango kaka Tamari asembolaki loboko epai ya Aminoni mpo na koleisa ye galeti, Aminoni akangaki ye na nzoto mpe alobaki na ye: — Yaka kolala elongo na ngai, ndeko na ngai ya mwasi.

And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.

12 Tamari alobaki na ye: — Te, ndeko na ngai ya mobali! Kosangisa na ngai nzoto na makasi te. Likambo ya boye ekoki kosalema te kati na Isalaele! Kosala bozoba ya boye te.

And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.

13 Ekosukela ngai ndenge nini? Nakokende wapi na soni na ngai? Mpe yo okozala ndenge nini? Okokoma lokola moto ya liboma kati na Isalaele! Nabondeli yo, loba na mokonzi, pamba te akoboya te ete obala ngai.

And I, whither shall I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.

14 Kasi Aminoni aboyaki koyoka ye; mpe lokola alekaki Tamari na makasi, azwaki ye na makasi mpe asangisaki na ye nzoto.

Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her.

15 Sima na yango, Aminoni ayinaki Tamari makasi, ayinaki ye penza makasi koleka ndenge azalaki kolinga ye. Aminoni alobaki na Tamari: — Telema mpe bima!

Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.

16 Tamari azongiselaki ye: — Te, kobengana ngai ezali mabe makasi koleka ata makambo oyo owuti kosala ngai! Kasi Aminoni aboyaki koyoka ye.

And she said unto him, Not so, because this great wrong in putting me forth is [worse] than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her.

17 Abengaki mosali na ye mpe alobaki: « Bimisa elenge mwasi oyo na libanda mpe kanga ekuke na bibende sima na ye. »

Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.

18 Mosali abimisaki Tamari na libanda mpe akangaki ekuke na bibende sima na ye. Tamari alataki nzambala moko ya kitoko, pamba te ezalaki lolenge ya bilamba oyo bana basi ya mokonzi oyo bayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te bazalaki kolata.

And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king’s daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

19 Tamari atiaki putulu na moto na ye mpe apasolaki nzambala na ye ya kitoko oyo alataki. Atiaki maboko na ye na moto mpe, wana azalaki kokende, azalaki kolela na mongongo makasi.

And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head, and went her way, crying aloud as she went.

20 Abisalomi, ndeko na ye ya mobali, atunaki ye: « Boni, Aminoni, ndeko na yo ya mobali, azalaki elongo na yo? Sik’oyo, ndeko na ngai ya mwasi, kolobela yango te; azali ndeko na yo ya mobali. Kotia likambo oyo na motema te! » Tamari avandaki kati na ndako ya Abisalomi, ndeko na ye ya mobali, lokola mwasi basundola.

And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.

21 Tango mokonzi Davidi ayokaki makambo oyo nyonso, asilikaki makasi.

But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.

22 Abisalomi alobaki ata liloba moko te epai ya Aminoni, ndeko na ye ya mobali, ezala ya malamu to ya mabe, pamba te ayinaki Aminoni mpo ete asambwisaki Tamari, ndeko na ye ya mwasi.

And Absalom spake unto Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

23 Sima na mibu mibale, lokola Abisalomi azalaki na basali oyo bakataka bapwale ya bameme, na Bala-Atsori, pene ya mondelo ya Efrayimi, abengisaki bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi.

And it came to pass after two years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.

24 Abisalomi akendeki epai ya mokonzi mpe alobaki na ye: — Mosali na yo abengisi basali oyo bakataka bapwale ya bameme. Tika ete mokonzi mpe bakalaka na ye basepela koya kosangana na ngai, mosali na yo.

And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.

25 Mokonzi azongisaki: — Te, mwana na ngai, tokoki te kokende biso nyonso, noki te tokozala mokumba mpo na yo. Atako Abisalomi atungisaki ye, kasi mokonzi aboyaki kaka kokende, kasi apambolaki ye.

And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.

26 Abisalomi alobaki lisusu: — Nabondeli yo, pesa kaka nzela ete ata Aminoni, ndeko na ngai ya mobali, akende elongo na biso. Mokonzi atunaki ye: — Mpo na nini akende elongo na yo?

Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

27 Kasi Abisalomi akobaki kaka kotungisa ye, mpe mokonzi atindaki bana mibali mosusu ya mokonzi ete bakende elongo na Aminoni.

But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.

28 Abisalomi apesaki mitindo epai ya basali na ye: — Boyoka! Tango Aminoni akolangwa masanga ya vino, soki nalobi na bino: « Bobeta Aminoni; » wana boboma ye. Bobanga te, pamba te ezali ngai moko nde nakopesa mitindo oyo. Bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko.

And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now, when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you, smite Amnon, then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.

29 Basali ya Abisalomi basalaki Aminoni ndenge kaka Abisalomi atindaki bango. Bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi batelemaki, bamataki na bamile na bango mpe bakimaki.

And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.

30 Wana bazalaki nanu na nzela, sango ekomaki epai ya Davidi: « Abisalomi abomi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi, moko te kati na bango atikali. »

And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that the tidings came to David saying, Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left.

31 Mokonzi atelemaki, apasolaki bilamba na ye mpe amitandaki na mabele. Bakalaka na ye nyonso batelemaki wana na bilamba epasuka.

Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.

32 Kasi Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Shimea, ndeko mobali ya Davidi, alobaki: « Tika ete nkolo na ngai akanisa te ete babomi bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi! Ezali Aminoni kaka moto akufi, pamba te, wuta mokolo oyo Aminoni asangisaki na makasi nzoto na Tamari, ndeko na ye ya mwasi, Abisalomi azwaki mokano ya koboma ye.

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

33 Tika ete mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, amitungisa na ye te mpo na sango oyo asili koyoka, sango oyo ezali koloba ete bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi bakufi! Ezali Aminoni kaka moto akufi. »

Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.

34 Na tango yango, Abisalomi akimaki. Nzokande tango mokengeli atalaki na mosika, amonaki bato ebele kokita na mopanzi ya ngomba, na nzela ya weste. Mokengeli akendeki koyebisa mokonzi: « Namoni bato na nzela ya Oronayimi, na mopanzi ya ngomba. »

But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.

35 Yonadabi alobaki na mokonzi: — Tala! Bana mibali ya mokonzi bazali koya! Esalemi ndenge kaka mosali na yo alobaki.

And Jonadab said unto the king, Behold, the king’s sons are come: as thy servant said, so it is.

36 Tango kaka asilisaki koloba, bana mibali ya mokonzi bakotaki na kolela na mongongo makasi. Mokonzi mpe alelaki makasi elongo na basali na ye.

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king’s sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.

37 Abisalomi akimaki mpe akendeki epai ya Talimayi, mwana mobali ya Amiwudi, mokonzi ya Geshuri. Kasi mokonzi Davidi asalaki mikolo nyonso matanga mpo na mwana na ye ya mobali.

But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai the son of Ammihur, king of Geshur. And [David] mourned for his son every day.

38 Abisalomi akimaki mpe akendeki na mboka Geshuri, avandaki kuna mibu misato.

So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

39 Mokonzi Davidi atikaki kolanda Abisalomi, pamba te amibondisaki na tina na kufa ya Aminoni.

And [the soul of] king David longed to go forth unto Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
