2 Chronicles 30
1 Then Hezekiah sent word to all Israel and Judah, and sent letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, requesting them to come to the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel.
Ezekiasi atindaki bamemi sango kati na Isalaele mobimba mpe Yuda, mpe akomelaki Efrayimi mpe Manase mikanda mpo na kosenga na bango ete baya na Tempelo ya Yawe, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kosepela feti ya Pasika ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
2 For the king, after discussion with his chiefs and all the body of the people in Jerusalem, had made a decision to keep the Passover in the second month.
Mokonzi elongo na bakalaka na ye mpe lisanga mobimba ya Yelusalemi bazwaki mokano ya kosepela feti ya Pasika na sanza ya mibale.
3 It was not possible to keep it at that time, because not enough priests had made themselves holy, and the people had not come together in Jerusalem.
Balongaki te kosepela feti ya Pasika na mokolo oyo ekatama, pamba te Banganga-Nzambe oyo bamibulisaki bazalaki mingi te, mpe bato basanganaki te na Yelusalemi.
4 And the thing was right in the eyes of the king and all the people.
Mokonzi mpe lisanga mobimba bandimaki mabongisi yango,
5 So it was ordered that word was to be sent out through all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, that they were to come to keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem: because they had not kept it in great numbers in agreement with the law.
bazwaki mokano ya kopesa mayebisi kati na Isalaele mobimba, longwa na Beri-Sheba kino na Dani, mpo na kosenga na bato nyonso ete baya kosepela feti ya Pasika, na Yelusalemi mpo na lokumu ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Pamba te bato moke kaka basepelaki yango kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na makomi.
6 So runners went with letters from the king and his chiefs through all Israel and Judah, by the order of the king, saying, O children of Israel, come back again to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that he may come again to that small band of you which has been kept safe out of the hands of the kings of Assyria.
Na etinda ya mokonzi, bamemi sango bakendeki kati na Isalaele mobimba mpe Yuda, na mikanda oyo ewutaki epai ya mokonzi mpe bakalaka na ye. Tala makambo oyo ezalaki kati na mikanda yango: « Bana ya Isalaele, bozongela Yawe, Nzambe ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Isalaele, mpo ete Ye mpe azongela bino oyo bobiki na maboko ya bakonzi ya mboka Asiri!
7 Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were sinners against the Lord, the God of their fathers, so that he made them a cause of fear, as you see.
Bozala te lokola batata mpe bandeko na bino oyo bazangaki boyengebene liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango. Yango wana asalaki ete babebisama ndenge bozali komona.
8 Now do not be hard-hearted, as your fathers were; but give yourselves to the Lord, and come into his holy place, which he has made his for ever, and be the servants of the Lord your God, so that the heat of his wrath may be turned away from you.
Bozala moto makasi te lokola batata na bino; bomipesa epai na Yawe, boya na Esika ya bule oyo Ye moko abulisi mpo na libela mpe bosalela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpo ete kanda makasi na Ye ezala mosika na bino!
9 For if you come back to the Lord, those who took away your brothers and your children will have pity on them, and let them come back to this land: for the Lord your God is full of grace and mercy, and his face will not be turned away from you if you come back to him.
Soki solo bozongeli Yawe, bandeko mpe bana na bino oyo bakendeki na bowumbu bakozwa ngolu liboso ya bato oyo bakangaki bango, mpe bakozonga na mokili oyo; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, atonda na ngolu mpe na mawa. Solo, soki bozongeli Ye, akobalola te elongi na Ye mosika na bino. »
10 So the runners went from town to town through all the country of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun: but they were laughed at and made sport of.
Bamemi sango batambolaki kati na bingumba nyonso ya Efrayimi mpe ya Manase kino na Zabuloni. Kasi bato bazalaki koseka mpe kotiola bango.
11 However, some of Asher and Manasseh and Zebulun put away their pride and came to Jerusalem.
Nzokande, ndambo ya bato ya Aseri, ya Manase mpe ya Zabuloni bamikitisaki mpe bakendeki na Yelusalemi.
12 And in Judah the power of God gave them one heart to do the orders of the king and the captains, which were taken as the word of the Lord.
Kati na mokili ya Yuda, loboko ya Nzambe ezalaki kosala na nguya makasi epai ya bato, mpo na kopesa bango bomoko na molimo mpo na kotosa mitindo ya mokonzi mpe ya bakalaka na ye, kolandisama na Liloba na Yawe.
13 So a very great number of people came together at Jerusalem to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month.
Bato ebele basanganaki na Yelusalemi mpo na kosepela feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, na sanza ya mibale: bazalaki penza ebele ya bato.
14 And they got to work and took away all the altars in Jerusalem, and they put all the vessels for burning perfumes into the stream Kidron.
Babukaki bitumbelo kati na Yelusalemi mpe balimwisaki bambabola nyonso ya malasi na kobwaka yango na lubwaku ya Sedron.
15 Then on the fourteenth day of the second month they put the Passover lambs to death: and the priests and the Levites were shamed, and made themselves holy and took burned offerings into the house of the Lord.
Bakataki kingo ya mpate mpo na mbeka ya Pasika na mokolo ya zomi na minei ya sanza ya mibale. Banganga-Nzambe elongo na Balevi bayokaki soni, bamibulisaki mpe babonzaki bambeka ya kotumba kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
16 And they took their places in their right order, as it was ordered in the law of Moses, the man of God: the priests draining out on the altar the blood given them by the Levites.
Bazongelaki misala na bango ndenge ekomama na mibeko ya Moyize, moto na Nzambe. Balevi bazalaki kopesa makila ya bambeka epai ya Banganga-Nzambe; mpe bango, Banganga-Nzambe, bazalaki kosopa yango na etumbelo.
17 For there were still a number of the people there who had not made themselves holy: so the Levites had to put Passover lambs to death for those who were not clean, to make them holy to the Lord.
Lokola bato mingi kati na lisanga bamibulisaki te, Balevi bazwaki mokumba ya kokata bakingo ya bampate ya Pasika mpo na bato wana nyonso oyo bazalaki peto te; mpe na bongo, bakokaki te kobulisa bampate na bango epai na Yawe.
18 For a great number of the people from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not made themselves clean, but they took the Passover meal, though not in the right way. For Hezekiah had made prayer for them, saying, May the good Lord have mercy on everyone
Atako bato ebele oyo bawutaki na Manase, na Efrayimi, na Isakari mpe na Zabuloni bamipetolaki te, kasi baliaki Pasika na kozanga kolanda oyo ekomama. Yango wana Ezekiasi abondelaki boye mpo na bango: « Yawe, Yo oyo ozali malamu, tika ete olimbisa
19 Who, with all his heart, is turned to God the Lord, the God of his fathers, even if he has not been made clean after the rules of the holy place.
moto nyonso oyo amipesi na koluka Nzambe, Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na ye, na motema na ye mobimba atako amipetolaki te kolanda mibeko ya Esika ya bule! »
20 And the Lord gave ear to Hezekiah, and made the people well.
Yawe ayokaki libondeli ya Ezekiasi mpe abetaki bato te.
21 So the children of Israel who were present in Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread for seven days with great joy: and the Levites and the priests gave praise to the Lord day by day, making melody to the Lord with loud instruments.
Boye bato ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi basepelaki mikolo sambo mpe na esengo makasi feti ya Mapa ezanga levire wana Balevi mpe Banganga-Nzambe bazalaki kokumisa Yawe mikolo nyonso na kobeta makasi bibetelo mindule na bango mpo na lokumu ya Yawe.
22 And Hezekiah said kind words to the Levites who were expert in the ordering of the worship of the Lord: so they kept the feast for seven days, offering peace-offerings and praising the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Ezekiasi alendisaki Balevi nyonso oyo balakisaki ete bayebi malamu mosala ya Yawe. Na mikolo sambo ya feti, baliaki misuni ya bambeka, babonzaki bambeka ya boyokani mpe basanzolaki Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bango.
23 And by the desire of all the people, the feast went on for another seven days, and they kept the seven days with joy.
Lisanga mobimba eyokanaki kobakisa mikolo mosusu sambo mpo na kokoba kosepela feti. Boye, basalaki feti na esengo na mikolo yango sambo.
24 For Hezekiah, king of Judah, gave to the people for offerings, a thousand oxen and seven thousand sheep; and the rulers gave a thousand oxen and ten thousand sheep; and a great number of priests made themselves holy.
Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, apesaki mpo na lisanga bangombe ya mibali nkoto moko, bameme mpe bantaba nkoto sambo; mpe bakalaka bapesaki mpo na lisanga bangombe ya mibali nkoto moko, bameme mpe bantaba nkoto zomi. Banganga-Nzambe ebele bamibulisaki.
25 And all the people of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and those who had come from Israel, and men from other lands who had come from Israel or who were living in Judah, were glad with great joy.
Lisanga mobimba ya Yuda, Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi, bato nyonso ya Isalaele mpe bapaya oyo bawutaki na Isalaele to bavandi ya Yuda bazalaki na esengo.
26 So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for nothing like this had been seen in Jerusalem from the time of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel.
Esengo ezalaki makasi kati na Yelusalemi, pamba te wuta na tango ya Salomo, mwana mobali ya Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, likambo ya boye etikala nanu kosalema te kati na Yelusalemi.
27 Then the priests and the Levites gave the people a blessing: and the voice of their prayer went up to the holy place of God in heaven.
Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi batelemaki mpo na kopambola bato, mpe Nzambe ayokaki bango mpo ete losambo na bango ekomaki kino na Likolo, evandelo na Ye ya bule.
