< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Yahweh sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, “There were two men in one city: the one rich, and the other poor.
Yawe atindaki Natan epai ya Davidi. Tango akomaki epai ya Davidi, alobaki na ye: « Ezalaki na bato mibale kati na engumba moko: moko kati na bango azalaki mozwi; mpe mosusu, mobola.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Mozwi azalaki na bameme mpe bangombe ebele,
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food, drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him.
kasi mobola azalaki na eloko te longola kaka mwa mwana meme moko ya mwasi oyo asombaki. Abokolaki yango mpe ekolaki epai na ye elongo na bana na ye. Mpate yango ezalaki kolia bilei na sani moko, komela mayi na kopo moko na nkolo na yango mpe kolala na maboko na ye. Ezalaki lokola mwana na ye ya mwasi.
4 A traveler came to the rich man, and he didn’t want to take of his own flock and of his own herd to prepare for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
Mokolo moko, mopaya moko ayaki epai ya mozwi, kasi mozwi aboyaki kozwa meme moko kati na bameme na ye to ngombe moko kati na bangombe na ye mpo na kolamba yango mpo na mopaya oyo ayaki epai na ye; azwaki kaka mwa mwana meme ya mwasi ya mobola mpe alambaki yango mpo na mopaya oyo ayaki epai na ye. »
5 David’s anger burned hot against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As Yahweh lives, the man who has done this deserves to die!
Davidi asilikelaki mozwi makasi mpe alobaki na Natan: — Na Kombo na Yawe, moto oyo asali boye asengeli na kufa!
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and because he had no pity!”
Asengeli kofuta mwa mwana meme yango mbala minei, pamba te azalaki na mawa te ya kosala likambo ya boye.
7 Nathan said to David, “You are the man! This is what Yahweh, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Natan alobaki na Davidi: — Moto yango ezali nde yo! Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Napakolaki yo mafuta mpo ete okoma mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe nakangolaki yo na maboko ya Saulo;
8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
nakabaki na maboko na yo ndako ya nkolo na yo, Saulo, mpe basi na ye; napesaki yo libota ya Isalaele mpe libota ya Yuda. Bongo soki nyonso wana ezalaki moke koleka, nalingaki kobakisela yo lisusu ebele koleka.
9 Why have you despised Yahweh’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Mpo na nini otioli Liloba na Yawe na kosala makambo oyo ezali mabe na miso na Ye? Obomisi Iri, moto ya Iti, na mopanga mpe ozwi mwasi na ye mpo ete akoma mwasi na yo. Obomisi ye na mopanga ya bato ya Amoni.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken Uriah the Hittite’s wife to be your wife.’
Mpo na yango, mopanga ekolongwa lisusu te na ndako na yo, pamba te otioli ngai mpe ozwi mwasi ya Iri, moto ya Iti, mpo ete akoma mwasi na yo.
11 “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nakoyeisa pasi epai na yo wuta na ndako na yo moko; na miso na yo, nakokamata basi na yo mpe nakopesa bango na moko kati na baninga na yo, oyo akosangisa na bango nzoto na moyi makasi.
12 For you did this secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.’”
Osalaki yango na nkuku, kasi ngai nakosala likambo oyo na moyi mpe na miso ya Isalaele mobimba. › »
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan said to David, “Yahweh also has put away your sin. You will not die.
Davidi alobaki na Natan: — Solo, nasalaki masumu epai na Yawe. Natan azongisaki: — Yawe alongoli masumu na yo; okokufa te.
14 However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to Yahweh’s enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you will surely die.”
Kasi lokola na likambo oyo yo osali, opesi na banguna ya Yawe nzela ya kofinga Ye, mwana oyo bakobotela yo akokufa.
15 Then Nathan departed to his house. Yahweh struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
Sima na yango, Natan azongaki na ndako na ye. Yawe abetaki mwana oyo mwasi ya Iri abotelaki Davidi, mpe mwana yango akomaki kobela.
16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
Davidi abondelaki Nzambe mpo na mwana, akilaki bilei, akotaki na ndako na ye mpe akomaki kolala na mabele babutu nyonso.
17 The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he didn’t eat bread with them.
Bakambi ya ndako na ye bayaki kotelema pembeni na ye mpo na kotelemisa ye wuta na mabele, kasi aboyaki mpe andimaki te kolia bilei elongo na bango.
18 On the seventh day, the child died. David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him and he didn’t listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself if we tell him that the child is dead?”
Na mokolo ya sambo, mwana akufaki. Basali ya Davidi babangaki koyebisa ye ete mwana akufi, pamba te bazalaki komilobela: « Wana mwana azalaki nanu na bomoi, tango tolobaki na Davidi, ayokaki biso te. Awa sik’oyo mwana akufi, tokoloba na ye ndenge nini? Soki toyebisi ye sik’oyo ete mwana akufi, akoki kosala likambo moko ya mabe! »
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They said, “He is dead.”
Davidi amonaki basali na ye koloba na se se kati na bango, mpe asosolaki ete mwana akufi. Atunaki: — Boni, mwana akufi? Bazongisaki: — Iyo, akufi.
20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into Yahweh’s house, and worshiped. Then he came to his own house; and when he requested, they set bread before him and he ate.
Bongo Davidi atelemaki wuta na mabele, amisukolaki nzoto, amipakolaki malasi, alataki bilamba mosusu, akotaki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe agumbamaki mpo na kosambela. Sima, azongaki na ndako na ye, asengaki bilei mpe aliaki.
21 Then his servants said to him, “What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread.”
Basali na ye batunaki: — Mpo na nini ozali kosala boye? Wana mwana azalaki na bomoi, ozalaki komilalisa nzala mpe ozalaki kolela; awa sik’oyo mwana akufi, otelemi mpe okomi kolia!
22 He said, “While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows whether Yahweh will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?’
Azongisaki: — Solo, wana mwana azalaki nanu na bomoi, nazalaki kokila bilei mpe kolela, pamba te nazalaki komilobela: « Nani ayebi? Tango mosusu Yawe akosalela ngai ngolu mpe akotika mwana na bomoi! »
23 But now he is dead. Why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Kasi lokola sik’oyo akufi, mpo na nini nakila bilei? Boni, nakoki kozongisa ye lisusu na bomoi? Ngai nde nakokende epai na ye, kasi ye akozonga epai na ngai te.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Yahweh loved him;
Bongo Davidi abondisaki mwasi na ye, Batisheba; akendeki epai na ye mpe asangisaki na ye nzoto. Batisheba abotelaki ye lisusu mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Salomo. » Yawe alingaki ye
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he named him Jedidiah, for Yahweh’s sake.
mpe atindaki maloba na nzela ya mosakoli Natan ete bapesa ye kombo « Yedidia, » pamba te Yawe alingaki ye.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Joabi abundisaki engumba Raba ya bato ya Amoni mpe abotolaki mboka mokonzi.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah. Yes, I have taken the city of waters.
Joabi atindaki bantoma koloba na Davidi: « Nabundisi Raba mpe nabotoli eteni ya mabele epai wapi mayi ezali.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city and take it; lest I take the city, and it be called by my name.”
Sik’oyo, sangisa basoda oyo batikali, bozingela engumba Raba mpe bokamata yango; soki te nakokamata yango ngai moko, mpe kombo na ngai ekosakolama kuna. »
29 David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it and took it.
Davidi asangisaki mampinga nyonso mpe akendeki na Raba, abundisaki mpe akamataki yango.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David’s head. He brought a great quantity of plunder out of the city.
Alongolaki motole oyo ezalaki na moto ya mokonzi na yango. Motole yango esalemaki na bakilo ya wolo koleka tuku misato mpe ezalaki na libanga ya talo na likolo na yango. Wuta na tango wana, ekomaki na moto ya Davidi. Akamataki bomengo ebele ya bitumba kati na engumba yango.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work under saws, under iron picks, under axes of iron, and made them go to the brick kiln; and he did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Amemaki na bowumbu bato oyo bazalaki kuna, atiaki bango na misala oyo basalaka na si, na piki mpe na epasola; atiaki bango mpe na mosala ya kosala babiliki. Davidi asalaki ndenge wana na bavandi ya bingumba nyonso ya bato ya Amoni. Bongo azongaki na Yelusalemi elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso.
