Bilombe 10
1 Sima na kufa ya Abimeleki, ezalaki Tola, mwana mobali ya Puwa, mwana mobali ya Dodo, moto ya Isakari, nde atelemaki mpo na kobikisa Isalaele. Azalaki kovanda na Shamiri, kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi.
And there arose after Abimelech to deliver Israel Tola' the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in the mountain of Ephraim.
2 Akambaki Isalaele mibu tuku mibale na misato; sima na yango, akufaki, mpe bakundaki ye na Shamiri.
And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and then died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 Yairi, moto ya Galadi, akitanaki na Tola mpe akambaki Isalaele mibu tuku mibale na mibale.
And after him arose Yair, the Gil'adite, and judged Israel twenty and two years;
4 Azalaki na bana mibali tuku misato oyo bazalaki kotambola likolo ya ba-ane, mpe bazalaki na bamboka tuku misato kati na Galadi. Kino na mokolo ya lelo, babengaka yango « Bamboka ya Yairi. »
And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass-colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Chavvoth-yair unto this day, which are in the land of Gil'ad.
5 Yairi akufaki, mpe bakundaki ye na Kamone.
And Yair died, and was buried in Kamon.
6 Bana ya Isalaele basalaki lisusu makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe; basalelaki banzambe Bala, Asitarite, mpe banzambe ya Siri, ya Sidoni, ya Moabi, ya Amoni mpe ya Filisitia. Basundolaki Yawe mpe basalelaki Ye lisusu te.
And the children of Israel repeated to do the evil in the eyes of the Lord, and they served the Be'alim, and 'Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of 'Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and they forsook the Lord, and served not him.
7 Boye, kanda ya Yawe epelaki likolo ya Isalaele, mpe Yawe akabaki bango na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya bato ya Amoni.
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the children of 'Ammon.
8 Mibu zomi na mwambe, banyokolaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kovanda na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, mokili ya bato ya Amori, kati na Galadi.
And they afflicted and oppressed the children of Israel that year; [and] for eighteen years all the children of Israel that were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Emorites, which is in Gil'ad.
9 Bato ya Amoni mpe bakatisaki na ngambo ya Yordani mpo na kobundisa libota ya Yuda, ya Benjame mpe ya Efrayimi. Boye, Isalaele akomaki na pasi mingi.
And the children of 'Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sorely distressed.
10 Bana ya Isalaele bagangaki epai ya Yawe: — Tosalaki masumu na miso na Yo, pamba te tosundolaki Yo, Nzambe na biso, mpe tosalelaki banzambe Bala.
And the children of Israel cried unto the Lord, saying, We have sinned against thee, because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Be'alim.
11 Yawe azongiselaki bana ya Isalaele: — Boni, nabikisaki bino te na maboko ya bato ya Ejipito, ya Amori, ya Amoni mpe ya Filisitia?
And the Lord said unto the children of Israel, Behold [I delivered you] from the Egyptians, and from the Emorites, from the children of 'Ammon, and from the Philistines.
12 Tango bato ya Sidoni, ya Amaleki mpe ya Maoni banyokolaki bino, boni, bogangaki epai na Ngai te mpo na kosenga lisungi? Boni, nakangolaki bino te wuta na maboko na bango?
And when the Zidonians, and the 'Amalekites, and the Ma'onites did oppress you, and ye cried to me, I delivered you also out of their hand.
13 Kasi bino, bosundolaki Ngai mpe bosalelaki banzambe mosusu. Yango wana, nakokangola bino lisusu te.
And yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods; wherefore I will deliver you no more.
14 Bokende koganga epai ya banzambe oyo boponaki mpo ete ebikisa bino awa bozali kati na pasi.
Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let these deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15 Kasi bana ya Isalaele balobaki na Yawe: — Ya solo, tosalaki lisumu na miso na Yo. Oyo omoni ete ezali malamu na miso na Yo, sala yango na biso; kasi tobondeli Yo: bikisa biso lisusu sik’oyo!
And the children of Israel said unto the Lord, We have sinned: do thou unto us entirely as it seemeth good in thy eyes; only deliver us, we pray thee, this time.
16 Bongo bana ya Isalaele balongolaki banzambe ya bapaya kati na bango mpe basalelaki Yawe. Mpe Yawe akokaki lisusu te kotala pasi na bango.
And they put away the strange gods from their midst, and served the Lord; and his soul was grieved for the trouble of Israel.
17 Tango bato ya Amoni basanganaki mpe batiaki molako na bango kati na Galadi, bana ya Isalaele basanganaki mpe batiaki molako na bango kati na Mitsipa.
And the children of 'Ammon were called together, and they encamped in Gil'ad. And the children of Israel also assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpah.
18 Bato mpe bakonzi ya Galadi balobanaki: « Moto oyo akobundisa liboso bana ya Amoni akozala mokonzi ya bato nyonso ya Galadi. »
And the people, the princes of Gil'ad, said one to another, Whatever man it be that will begin to fight against the children of 'Ammon, shall become the head over all the inhabitants of Gil'ad.
