< 2 Kings 14 >

1 In the second year of Joash, son of Joahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah, the son of Joash, became king of Judah.
Na mobu ya mibale ya bokonzi ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem.
Amatsia azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na libwa na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yeoyadani. » Yeoyadani azalaki moto ya Yelusalemi.
3 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, though not like David his father; he did as Joash his father had done.
Amatsia asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe, kasi ezalaki te lokola Davidi, koko na ye. Na makambo nyonso, alandaki ndakisa ya Joasi, tata na ye.
4 But still the high places were not taken away; the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.
5 Now when he became strong in the kingdom, straight away he put to death those servants who had taken the life of the king his father;
Sima na Amatsia kolendisa bokonzi na ye, abomaki bakalaka oyo babomaki tata na ye.
6 But he did not put their children to death; for the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses say, The fathers are not to be put to death for the children, or the children for their fathers; but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.
Kasi abomaki te bana mibali ya babomi ya tata na ye, pamba te, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Mobeko ya Moyize, Yawe apesaki mitindo oyo: « Bakoboma batata te mpo na bana na bango to mpe bakoboma bana te mpo na batata na bango; bakoboma moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye moko. »
7 He put to the sword twelve thousand men of Edom in the Valley of Salt, and took Sela in war, naming it Joktheel, as it is to this day.
Ezali Amatsia nde moto alongaki bato ya Edomi, nkoto zomi na Lubwaku ya Mungwa, mpe abotolaki na bitumba engumba ya Sela; mpe abengaki yango « Yokiteyeli, » kombo oyo babengelaka yango kino lelo.
8 Then Amaziah sent representatives to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us have a meeting face to face.
Bongo Amatsia atindaki bantoma epai ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi mpe koko ya Jewu, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo na koyebisa ye: — Yaka tobunda!
9 And Jehoash, king of Israel, sent to Amaziah, king of Judah, saying, The thorn-tree in Lebanon sent to the cedar in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife: and a beast from the woodland in Lebanon went by, crushing the thorn under his feet.
Kasi Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, azongiselaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda: — Mokolo moko, nzete ya sende ya Libani etindaki maloba epai ya nzete ya sedele ya Libani: « Balisa mwana na yo ya mwasi epai ya mwana na ngai ya mobali. » Kasi nyama moko ya zamba elekaki mpe enyataki nzete ya sende.
10 It is true that you have overcome Edom and your heart is uplifted; let that glory be enough for you, and keep in your country; why do you make causes of trouble, putting yourself, and Judah with you, in danger of downfall?
Solo, olongi Edomi, mpe motema na yo ezali komikumisa. Sepela na yo, kasi vanda na ndako na yo. Mpo na nini koluka ete pasi makasi ekweyela yo elongo na Yuda?
11 But Amaziah gave no attention. So Jehoash, king of Israel, went up, and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, came face to face at Beth-shemesh, which is in Judah.
Kasi Amatsia ayokaki ye te. Boye, Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akendeki kobundisa Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda. Ye mpe Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, babundaki na Beti-Shemeshi kati na mokili ya Yuda.
12 And Judah was overcome before Israel, so that they went in flight, every man to his tent.
Isalaele alongaki Yuda, mpe bato ya Yuda bakimaki, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
13 And Jehoash, king of Israel, made Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, prisoner at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and had the wall of Jerusalem pulled down from the doorway of Ephraim to the door in the angle, four hundred cubits.
Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akangaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi mpe koko ya Akazia, na Beti-Shemeshi. Boye Joasi akendeki na Yelusalemi mpe abukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, na molayi ya bametele pene nkama moko na tuku mwambe, longwa na ekuke ya Efrayimi kino na ekuke ya suka.
14 And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels which were in the house of the Lord and in the store-house of the king, together with those whose lives would be the price of broken faith, and went back to Samaria.
Akamataki wolo nyonso, palata nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi; akangaki bato na bowumbu mpe azongaki na Samari.
15 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash, and his power, and how he went to war with Amaziah, king of Judah, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Joasi, misala na ye mpe elonga na ye tango abundisaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
16 And Jehoash went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son became king in his place.
Joasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Samari esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele. Mpe Jeroboami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
17 Amaziah, the son of Joash, king of Judah, went on living for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, awumelaki lisusu na bomoi mibu zomi na mitano sima na kufa ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
18 And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Amatsia mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
19 Now they made a secret design against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and put him to death there.
Basalelaki ye likita, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kotelemela ye, mpe akimaki na Lakishi. Kasi batindaki bato mpo ete balanda ye kino na Lakishi, mpe babomaki ye kuna.
20 And they took his body on horseback and put it into the earth with his fathers in Jerusalem, the town of David.
Bamemaki nzoto na ye na likolo ya mpunda mpe bakundaki ye na Yelusalemi, esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi.
21 Then all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
Bato nyonso ya Yuda bakamataki Azaria oyo azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi na esika ya tata na ye, Amatsia.
22 He was the builder of Elath, which he got back for Judah after the death of the king.
Ezalaki ye nde moto atongaki lisusu engumba ya Eyilati mpe azongisaki yango na Yuda sima na kufa ya tata na ye, mokonzi Amatsia.
23 In the fifteenth year of the rule of Amaziah, son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam, the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, ruling for forty-one years.
Tango Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akokisaki mibu zomi na mitano na bokonzi, Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari mpe akonzaki mibu tuku minei na moko.
24 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not turning away from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.
Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe mpe atikaki te masumu nyonso ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.
25 He got back the old limits of Israel from the way into Hamath to the sea of the Arabah, as the Lord had said by his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet of Gath-hepher.
Ezalaki ye nde moto abotolaki lisusu bamboka ya Isalaele longwa na Lebo-Amati kino na ebale monene ya Araba, kolanda Liloba na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosali na Ye, mosakoli Yona, mwana mobali ya Amitayi, moto ya Gati-Eferi.
26 For the Lord saw how bitter was the trouble of Israel, and that everyone was cut off, he who was shut up and he who went free, and that Israel had no helper.
Yawe amonaki ndenge nini bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki konyokwama. Ezala bawumbu to bansomi, moto moko te akokaki kosunga bango.
27 And the Lord had not said that the name of Israel was to be taken away from the earth; but he gave them a saviour in Jeroboam, the son of Joash.
Lokola Yawe alobaki te ete akolimwisa kombo ya Isalaele na se ya moyi, abikisaki bango na nzela ya loboko ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all he did, and his power, and how he went to war with Damascus, causing the wrath of the Lord to be turned away from Israel, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jeroboami, misala na ye nyonso mpe elonga na ye na bitumba, ezala ndenge azongisaki na se ya bokonzi ya Isalaele Damasi mpe Amati, bingumba mibale oyo ezalaki ya Yuda, nyonso wana ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
29 And Jeroboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with the kings of Israel; and Zechariah his son became king in his place.
Jeroboami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele; mpe Zakari, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
