1 Kings 22
1 Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.
Bitumba ezalaki te kati ya Isalaele mpe Siri mibu misato.
2 And it came about in the third year, that Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, came down to the king of Israel.
Kasi na mobu ya misato, Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, akendeki kotala mokonzi ya Isalaele.
3 And the king of Israel said to his servants, Do you not see that Ramoth-gilead is ours? and we are doing nothing to get it back from the hands of the king of Aram.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na bakalaka na ye: « Boyebi malamu ete Ramoti ya Galadi ezalaka ya biso! Nzokande, tosalaka eloko moko te mpo na kobotola yango na maboko ya mokonzi ya Siri. »
4 And he said to Jehoshaphat, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead to make war? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as you are: my people as your people, my horses as your horses.
Alobaki mpe na Jozafati: — Boni, okoki solo kosepela kokende elongo na ngai mpo na kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi? Jozafati azongiselaki mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Ngai mpe yo, bato na ngai mpe bato na yo, tozali se moko, ezala bampunda na ngai mpe bampunda na yo.
5 Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Let us now get directions from the Lord.
Jozafati alobaki lisusu na mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Nabondeli yo, tuna nanu toli ya Yawe.
6 So the king of Israel got all the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
Boye mokonzi ya Isalaele asangisaki basakoli pene nkama minei mpe atunaki bango: — Nakoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Bazongiselaki ye: — Kende, pamba te Nkolo akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi.
7 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?
Kasi Jozafati atunaki lisusu: — Ezali lisusu na mosakoli moko te awa oyo na nzela na ye tokoki kotuna toli ya Yawe?
8 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele azongiselaki Jozafati: — Ezali lisusu na moto moko oyo na nzela na ye tokoki kotuna toli ya Yawe, kasi ngai nalingaka ye te; pamba te asakolaka makambo ya malamu te mpo na bomoi na ngai, asakolaka kaka makambo ya mabe. Ezali Mishe, mwana mobali ya Yimila. Jozafati alobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi aloba bongo te!
9 Then the king of Israel sent for one of his unsexed servants and said, Go quickly and come back with Micaiah, the son of Imlah.
Bongo, mokonzi ya Isalaele abengaki moko kati na bakalaka na ye ya lokumu mpe alobaki na ye: « Memela ngai na lombangu Mishe, mwana mobali ya Yimila. »
10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, balataki bilamba na bango ya bokonzi mpe bavandaki na bakiti na bango ya bokonzi, na etando ya ekotelo ya ekuke ya Samari. Mpe basakoli nyonso bazalaki kosakola liboso na bango.
11 And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made himself horns of iron and said, The Lord says, Pushing back the Aramaeans with these, you will put an end to them completely.
Nzokande moko kati na bango, Sedesiasi, mwana mobali ya Kenaana, asalisaki maseke ya ebende mpe alobaki: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Na maseke oyo okobeta bato ya Siri kino okosilisa koboma bango. › »
12 And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
Basakoli nyonso bazalaki koloba kaka liloba moko: « Kende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi, okolonga; pamba te Yawe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi. »
13 Now the servant who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, See now, all the prophets with one voice are saying good things to the king; so let your words be like theirs and say good things.
Ntoma oyo akendeki kobenga Mishe alobaki na ye: — Tala, basakoli nyonso bazali koloba liloba kaka moko mpo na kosakola elonga mpo na mokonzi. Boye, tika ete maloba na yo ekokana na maloba na bango: sakola elonga mpo na mokonzi!
14 And Micaiah said, By the living Lord, whatever the Lord says to me I will say.
Kasi Mishe azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe, makambo oyo Yawe akoloba na ngai, yango nde nakoloba.
15 When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And in answer he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
Tango akomaki epai ya mokonzi, mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Mishe, tokoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Mishe azongisaki: — Kende! Okolonga! Yawe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi.
16 Then the king said to him, Have I not, again and again, put you on your oath to say nothing to me but what is true in the name of the Lord?
Kasi mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Nakolapisa yo ndayi mbala boni mpo ete oloba na ngai kaka bosolo, na Kombo na Yawe?
17 Then he said, I saw all Israel wandering on the mountains like sheep without a keeper; and the Lord said, These have no master: let them go back, every man to his house in peace.
Mishe azongisaki: — Namoni bato nyonso ya Isalaele bapalangani na bangomba lokola etonga ya bibwele oyo ezangi mobateli. Mpe Yawe alobi: « Bato oyo bazali lisusu na bakambi te; tika ete moko na moko azonga na ndako na ye na kimia! »
18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say that he would not be a prophet of good but of evil?
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na Jozafati: — Nayebisaki yo te ete asakolaka makambo ya malamu te mpo na bomoi na ngai; asakolaka kaka makambo ya mabe!
19 And he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, with all the army of heaven in their places round him at his right hand and at his left.
Mishe alobaki: — Solo, yoka nde makambo oyo Yawe alobi! Ngai namoni Yawe avandi na Kiti na Ye ya bokonzi, wana mampinga nyonso ya likolo ezingeli Ye, na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mwasi.
20 And the Lord said, How may Ahab be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another.
Yawe atuni: « Nani akokosa Akabi mpo ete akende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi mpe akufa kuna? » Bazongisaki, moko na moko na ndenge na ye.
21 Then a spirit came forward and took his place before the Lord and said, I will get him to do it by a trick.
Mpe na suka na nyonso, molimo moko epusanaki, etelemaki liboso ya Yawe mpe elobaki: « Ngai oyo! Nakokosa ye. » Yawe atunaki molimo yango: « Okosala yango ndenge nini? »
22 And the Lord said, How? And he said, I will go out and be a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Your trick will have its effect on him: go out and do so.
Molimo yango ezongisaki: « Nakokende mpe nakobongwana molimo ya lokuta kati na minoko ya basakoli na ye nyonso. » Yawe alobaki: « Solo, okolonga kokosa ye! Kende mpe sala bongo. »
23 And now, see, the Lord has put a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the Lord has said evil against you.
Mpe sik’oyo, tala, Yawe atie molimo ya lokuta kati na minoko ya basakoli na yo oyo nyonso; Yawe azwi penza mokano ya koboma yo!
24 Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of the face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?
Bongo Sedesiasi, mwana mobali ya Kenaana, apusanaki, apapolaki Mishe mbata na litama mpe alobaki: — Molimo na Yawe abimi kati na ngai na nzela nini mpo ete aya koloba na yo?
25 And Micaiah said, Truly, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to keep yourself safe.
Mishe azongisaki: — Okososola yango kaka na mokolo oyo okokima mpe okotambola na shambre moko na moko mpo na koluka kobombama.
26 And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon, the ruler of the town, and to Joash, the king's son;
Mbala moko, mokonzi ya Isalaele apesaki mitindo: — Bokanga Mishe mpe bomema ye epai ya Amoni, moyangeli ya engumba, mpe epai ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya mokonzi.
27 And say, It is the king's order that this man is to be put in prison and given prison food till I come again in peace.
Boloba na bango: « Tala makambo oyo mokonzi alobi: ‹ Bobwaka moto oyo na boloko mpe bopesa ye bilei mosusu te, kaka lipa mpe mayi kino tango nakozonga na kimia. › »
28 And Micaiah said, If you come back at all in peace, the Lord has not sent his word by me.
Mishe alobaki: — Soki penza yo ozongi na kimia, loba ete Yawe alobaki na nzela na ngai te! Abakisaki: — Bino bato nyonso, bosimba makambo oyo nalobi!
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, bakendeki kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi.
30 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress and went into the fight.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na Jozafati: « Nakomibongola wana nakokende na bitumba; kasi yo, lata bilamba na yo ya bokonzi. » Boye mokonzi ya Isalaele amibongolaki mpe akendeki na bitumba.
31 Now the king of Aram had given orders to the thirty-two captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel.
Nzokande, mokonzi ya Siri apesaki mitindo epai ya bakonzi na ye ya basoda, tuku misato na mibale, oyo batambolisaka bashar: « Bobundisa moto moko te, azala moke to monene; kasi bobundisa kaka mokonzi ya Isalaele. »
32 So when the captains of the war-carriages saw Jehoshaphat, they said, Truly, this is the king of Israel; and turning against him, they came round him, but Jehoshaphat gave a cry.
Tango bakonzi na ye ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar, bamonaki Jozafati, bamilobelaki: « Ezali solo mokonzi ya Isalaele. » Balandaki ye mpo na kobundisa ye, kasi Jozafati agangaki makasi.
33 And when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.
Tango bakonzi ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar, basosolaki ete ezali mokonzi ya Isalaele te, batikaki kolanda ye.
34 And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.
Kasi moto moko ya Siri abetaki tolotolo na ye bibetela, mpe mbanzi na yango edusolaki ebombelo ya tolo ya mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe ezwaki ye. Mokonzi alobaki na motambolisi ya shar: « Baluka mpe bimisa ngai libanda ya esika oyo bitumba ezali koleka, pamba te nazoki. »
35 But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans, and the floor of the carriage was covered with the blood from his wound, and by evening he was dead.
Na mokolo yango, lokola bitumba ezalaki makasi, mokonzi atikalaki ya kotelema kati na shar na ye liboso ya bato ya Siri; mpe na pokwa, akufaki. Makila oyo ebimaki na pota na ye esopanaki kati na shar.
36 And about sundown a cry went up from all parts of the army, saying, Let every man go back to his town and his country, for the king is dead.
Na pokwa, makelele moko ezalaki kotambola kati na mampinga: « Tika ete moto na moto azonga na engumba na ye; tika ete moto na moto azonga na mabele na ye! »
37 And they came to Samaria, and put the king's body to rest in Samaria.
Boye mokonzi akufaki, mpe bamemaki ye na Samari; mpe bakundaki ye kuna.
38 And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.
Basukolaki shar na ye na liziba moko oyo ezalaki na Samari epai wapi basi ya ndumba bazalaki kosukola; mpe bambwa elembolaki makila na ye kolanda maloba oyo Yawe alobaki.
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all he did, and his ivory house, and all the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Akabi, misala na ye, ndako oyo atongisaki na pembe ya nzoko mpe bingumba nyonso oyo alendisaki, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
40 So Ahab was put to rest with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.
Akabi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye. Mpe Akazia, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
41 And Jehoshaphat, the son of Asa, became king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab's rule over Israel.
Jozafati, mwana mobali ya Asa, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi ya Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.
Jozafati azalaki na mibu tuku misato na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na mitano na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Azuba. » Azuba azalaki mwana mwasi ya Shili.
43 He did as Asa his father had done, not turning away from it, but doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord; but the high places were not taken away: the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
Jozafati alandaki nzela nyonso oyo Asa, tata na ye, atambolaki na yango mpe apengwaki na yango ata moke te; asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe. Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Jozafati abikaki na kimia elongo na mokonzi ya Isalaele.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his great power, and how he went to war, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jozafati, misala na ye mpe bitumba na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
46 He put an end to the rest of those who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, all those who were still in the land in the time of his father Asa.
Ezalaki ye nde moto alongolaki kati na mokili, bato ya suka oyo bazalaki komipesa na kindumba ya bule, oyo batikalaki na tango Asa, tata na ye, azalaki na bokonzi.
47 At that time there was no king in Edom;
Na tango wana, mokonzi azalaki te kati na mokili ya Edomi. Ezalaki kaka na moyangeli moko oyo azalaki kotambolisa kuna.
48 And the representative of King Jehoshaphat made a Tarshish-ship to go to Ophir for gold, but it did not go, because it was broken at Ezion-geber.
Jozafati asalisaki bamasuwa ya Tarsisi mpo na kokende koluka wolo na Ofiri; kasi elongaki te kokende, pamba te bamasuwa ebukanaki na Etsioni-Geberi.
49 Then Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, said to Jehoshaphat, Let my men go with yours in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not let them.
Boye Akazia, mwana mobali ya Akabi, alobaki na Jozafati: « Tika ete basali na ngai bakende nzela moko na basali na yo na bamasuwa! » Kasi Jozafati aboyaki.
50 Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.
Jozafati akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi, koko na ye. Yorami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
51 Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, and he was king over Israel for two years.
Tango Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu zomi na sambo na bokonzi, Akazia, mwana mobali ya Akabi, akomaki mokonzi na Isalaele na Samari. Asalaki mibu mibale na bokonzi.
52 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, going in the ways of his father and his mother, and in the ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil.
Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe; pamba te alandaki banzela ya tata na ye, ya mama na ye mpe ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, oyo asalaki ete Isalaele asala lisumu.
53 He was a servant and worshipper of Baal, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath, as his father had done.
Asalelaki nzambe Bala mpe agumbamelaki yango; na bongo, apelisaki kanda ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, ndenge kaka tata na ye asalaki.
