< 2 Kings 22 >
1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
Joziasi azalaki na mibu mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku misato na moko na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yedida. » Yedida azalaki mwana ya Adaya, moto ya mboka Botsikati.
2 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, and walked in all the ways of David his father, and did not turn away to the right hand or to the left.
Joziasi asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe mpe alandaki banzela oyo Davidi, tata na ye, atambolaki na yango; apengwaki na yango te, ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi to na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.
3 In the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the LORD’s house, saying,
Tango Joziasi akokisaki mibu zomi na mwambe na bokonzi, atindaki Shafani, mokomi mikanda na ye, mwana mobali ya Atsalia mpe koko ya Meshulami, na Tempelo ya Yawe. Alobaki na ye:
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may count the money which is brought into the LORD’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
— Kende koyebisa Ilikia, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, ete atanga mbongo nyonso oyo bato bamemaki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe oyo bakengeli bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe bakongolaki.
5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workers who have the oversight of the LORD’s house; and let them give it to the workers who are in the LORD’s house, to repair the damage to the house,
Tika ete bapesa mbongo yango na maboko ya batambolisi misala ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpo ete bafuta basali oyo bazali kobongisa yango:
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.
basharipantie, bangamba mpe batongi ndako. Kaka na mbongo yango, bakosomba lisusu mabaya mpe mabanga bakata mpo na kolendisa Tempelo ya Yawe.
7 However, no accounting shall be asked of them for the money delivered into their hand, for they deal faithfully.”
Kasi batuna bango te ndenge nini bakosalela mbongo yango, pamba te basalaka na boyengebene.
8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the LORD’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Ilikia, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, alobaki na Shafani, mokomi mikanda: — Namoni buku ya Mobeko kati na Tempelo ya Yawe. Ilikia apesaki buku yango epai ya Shafani, mpe Shafani atangaki yango.
9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hands of the workmen who have the oversight of the LORD’s house.”
Bongo Shafani, mokomi mikanda, akendeki epai ya mokonzi mpe ayebisaki ye: — Basali na yo bapesi mbongo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe epai ya batambolisi misala na yango,
10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Then Shaphan read it before the king.
mpe Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia apesi ngai buku moko. Mpe Shafani atangaki buku yango liboso ya mokonzi.
11 When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes.
Tango mokonzi ayokaki maloba ya buku ya Mobeko, apasolaki bilamba na ye
12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Achbor the son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,
mpe apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia, epai ya Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani, epai ya Akibori, mwana mobali ya Mishe, epai ya Shafani, mokomi mikanda, mpe epai ya Asaya, moko kati na bakalaka ya mokonzi:
13 “Go inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is the LORD’s wrath that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.”
— Bokende kotuna toli ya Yawe mpo na ngai, mpo na bato mpe mpo na Yuda mobimba, na tina na makambo oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ewuti komonana. Pamba te kanda ya Yawe, oyo epeleli biso ezali makasi mpo ete batata na biso batosaki te maloba ya buku yango mpe basalaki te kolanda nyonso oyo ekomama kati na yango.
14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.
Boye Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia, Ayikami, Akibori, Shafani mpe Asaya bakendeki epai ya mwasi mosakoli Ulida, mwasi ya Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Tikiva, koko ya Arasi, mobombi bilamba ya Tempelo. Ulida azalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi, kati na etuka ya sika. Tango basilisaki koyebisa ye makambo,
15 She said to them, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
Ulida alobaki na bango: — Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Boloba na tata oyo atindi bino epai na Ngai:
16 “The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakobengisa pasi makasi na esika oyo mpe na bavandi na yango kolanda makambo nyonso oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo mokonzi ya Yuda awuti kotanga.
17 Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”
Lokola basundolaki Ngai mpe batumbaki mbeka ya malasi mpo na banzambe mosusu kino kotumbola Ngai na nzela ya biloko nyonso oyo maboko na bango esilaki kosala, kanda na Ngai epeli makasi mpo na kobebisa esika oyo, mpe ekokita te. »
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,
Boloba na mokonzi ya Yuda oyo atindi bino kotuna toli ya Yawe: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na maloba oyo oyokaki:
19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says the LORD.
Lokola motema na yo etutami, lokola omikitisi liboso ya Yawe sima na yo koyoka makambo oyo nalobaki, mpo na kotelemela esika oyo elongo na bavandi na yango, ete bakobebisama mpe bakolakelama mabe; lokola opasoli bilamba na yo mpe oleli liboso na Ngai, Ngai mpe nayoki, elobi Yawe.
20 ‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” So they brought this message back to the king.
Mpo na yango, nakosala ete okende kokutana na bakoko na yo; mpe okokundama na kimia kati na moko na bakunda na yo. Na bongo, miso na yo ekomona te pasi nyonso oyo nakotindela esika oyo. » Batindami bakomisaki eyano oyo epai ya mokonzi.
