< Bilombe 12 >
1 Bato ya Efrayimi basanganaki, bakatisaki na ngambo ya Tsafoni mpe balobaki na Jefite: — Mpo na nini okatisaki mondelo ya bato ya Amoni mpo na kobundisa bango, bongo obengaki biso te mpo ete tokende na yo elongo? Tokotumba yo elongo na ndako na yo!
`Lo! forsothe discencioun roos in Effraym; for whi thei, that passiden ayens the north, seiden to Jepte, Whi yedist thou to batel ayens the sones of Amon, and noldist clepe vs, that we schulden go with thee? Therfor we schulen brenne thin hows.
2 Jefite azongiselaki bango: — Ngai mpe bato na ngai, tozalaki na kobendana makasi na bato ya Amoni; mpe tango nabengaki bino, bokangolaki ngai te wuta na maboko na bango.
To whiche he answeride, Greet strijf was to me and to my puple ayens the sones of Amon, and Y clepide you, that ye schulden `yyue help to me, and ye nolden do.
3 Tango namonaki ete bokangoli na bino ngai te, nakabaki bomoi na ngai, mpe nakatisaki ngai moko nzela ya bato ya Amoni mpo na kobundisa bango; mpe Yawe apesaki ngai elonga likolo na bango. Sik’oyo, mpo na nini boyei lelo kobundisa ngai?
`Which thing Y siy, and puttide my lijf in myn hondis; and Y passide to the sones of Amon, and `the Lord bitook hem in to myn hondis; what haue Y disseruyd, that ye ryse togidere ayens me in to batel?
4 Jefite asangisaki mibali nyonso ya Galadi, mpe babundisaki bato ya Efrayimi. Bato ya Galadi balongaki bato ya Efrayimi; mpe bato ya Efrayimi balobaki: « Bino bato ya Galadi, bozali na bino kaka bato oyo bokimaki wuta na Efrayimi mpe na Manase. »
Therfor whanne alle the men of Galaad weren clepid to hym, he fauyt ayens Effraym; and the men of Galaad smytiden Effraym; for he seide, Galaad is `fugitif ether exilid fro Effraym, and dwellith in the myddis of Effraym and of Manasses.
5 Bato ya Galadi bakangaki esika oyo bakatisaka Yordani na makolo, pene ya etuka ya Efrayimi. Mpe tango nyonso mokimi moko ya Efrayimi azalaki koloba: « Tika ngai nakatisa, » bato ya Galadi bazalaki kotuna ye: « Ozali moto ya Efrayimi? » Soki azongisi: « Te, »
And the men of Galaad ocupieden the forthis of Jordan, bi whiche Effraym schulden turne ayen. And whanne a man fleynge of the noumbre of Effraym hadde come to tho forthis, and hadde seid, Y biseche, that thou suffre me passe; men of Galaad seiden to hym, Whether thou art a man of Effraym? And whanne he seide, Y am not,
6 bazalaki kosenga ete aloba: « Shiboleti; » soki alobi: « Siboleti, » mpo ete akoki te koloba yango malamu, bazalaki kokanga ye mpe koboma ye na esika oyo bakatisaka Yordani na makolo. Na tango wana, babomaki bato ya Efrayimi nkoto tuku minei na mibale.
thei axiden hym, Seie thou therfor Sebolech, `whiche is interpretid, `an eer of corn. Which answeride, Thebolech, and myyte not brynge forth an eer of corn bi the same lettre. And anoon thei strangeliden hym takun in thilke passyng of Jordan; and two and fourti thousynde of Effraym felden doun in that tyme.
7 Jefite, moto ya Galadi, akambaki Isalaele mibu motoba. Sima na yango, akufaki, mpe bakundaki ye kati na engumba moko ya Galadi.
And so Jepte, `a man of Galaad, demyde Israel sixe yeer; and he `was deed, and biried in his citee Galaad.
8 Sima na Jefite, Ibitsani, moto ya Beteleemi, akambaki Isalaele.
