Chronicles II 25
1 Amasias began to reign when he was twenty and five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name [was] Joadaen 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.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a perfect heart.
Asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe, kasi na motema na ye mobimba te.
3 And it came to pass, when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain the king his father.
Sima na Amatsia kolendisa bokonzi na ye, abomaki bakalaka oyo babomaki tata na ye, mokonzi.
4 But he slew not their sons, according to the covenant of the law of the Lord, as it is written, [and] as the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, and the sons shall not die for the fathers, but they shall die each for his own sin.
Nzokande, abomaki te bana mibali ya babomi ya tata na ye, pamba te kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na Mobeko, kati na buku ya Moyize, Yawe apesaki mitindo oyo: « Bakoboma batata te mpo na bana na bango to mpe bakoboma bana te mpo na batata; bakoboma moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye moko. »
5 And Amasias assembled the house of Juda, and appointed them according to the houses of their families for captains of thousands and captains of hundreds in all Juda and Jerusalem: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upwards, and found them three hundred thousand able to go out to war, holding spear and shield.
Amatsia abengisaki bato ya Yuda mpe atiaki, kolanda mabota na bango, bakonzi ya bankoto mpe ya bankama mpo na Yuda mobimba mpe Benjame. Atangaki motango ya bato oyo bazalaki na mibu kobanda tuku mibale mpe komata: bazalaki mibali nkoto nkama misato oyo baselingwa mpo na kosala mosala ya soda, kobunda na makonga mpe na nguba.
6 Also he hired of Israel a hundred thousand mighty [men for] a hundred talents of silver.
Kati na Isalaele, azwaki lisusu na mosala ya soda, na motuya ya bakilo nkoto misato na nkama mitano ya palata, basoda ya mpiko nkoto nkama moko.
7 And there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the host of Israel go with thee; for the Lord is not with Israel, [even] all the sons of Ephraim.
Kasi moto moko ya Nzambe ayaki epai na ye mpe alobaki: — Oh mokonzi, tika ete basoda ya Isalaele bakende te elongo na yo na bitumba, pamba te Yawe azali te elongo na Isalaele mpe elongo na bato ya Efrayimi.
8 For if thou shalt undertake to strengthen [thyself] with these, then the lord shall put thee to flight before the enemies: for it is of the Lord both to strengthen and to put to flight.
Ata soki okeyi kobunda na mpiko nyonso, Nzambe akokweyisa yo liboso ya monguna, pamba te azali na makoki ya kosunga mpe ya kokweyisa.
9 And Amasias said to the man of God, But what shall I do [for] the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God said, The Lord can give thee much more than these.
Amatsia atunaki moto na Nzambe: — Boni, nkoto misato na nkama mitano ya bakilo ya palata oyo napesaki mampinga ya Isalaele ekosuka ndenge nini? Moto na Nzambe azongisaki: — Yawe akoki kopesa yo koleka oyo wana.
10 And Amasias separated from the army that came to him from Ephraim, that they might go away to their place; and they were very angry with Juda, and they returned to their place with great wrath.
Boye, Amatsia azongisaki na bandako na bango, basoda oyo bayaki epai na ye wuta na Efrayimi. Kasi basoda yango basilikelaki Yuda mpe bazongaki na bandako na bango na kanda makasi.
11 And Amasias strengthened [himself], and took his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote there the children of Seir ten thousand.
Amatsia azwaki mpiko mpe akambaki mampinga na ye kino na Lubwaku ya mungwa epai wapi abomaki bato ya Seiri nkoto zomi.
12 And the children of Juda took ten thousand prisoners, and they carried them to the top of the precipice, and cast them headlong from the top of the precipice, and they were all dashed to pieces.
Bato ya Yuda bakangaki lisusu bato ya bomoi nkoto zomi, bamemaki bango na songe ya ngomba mpe batindikaki bango wuta na songe ya ngomba; mpe bango nyonso bakweyaki na se, banzoto na epanzanaki na biteni.
13 And the men of the host whom Amasias sent back so that they should not go with him to battle, [went] and attacked the cities of Juda, from Samaria to Baethoron; and they smote three thousand among them, and took much spoil.
Na tango wana, basoda oyo Amatsia azongisaki mpe apekisaki kokende na bitumba bakotaki na makasi kati na bingumba ya Yuda longwa na Samari kino na Beti-Oroni. Babomaki bato nkoto misato mpe bamemaki bomengo ebele ya bitumba.
14 And it came to pass, after Amasias had returned from smiting Idumea, that he brought home the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up for himself as gods, and bowed down before them, and he sacrificed to them.
Sima na ye kolonga bato ya Edomi na bitumba, Amatsia azongaki epai na ye; amemaki banzambe ya bikeko ya bato ya Seiri, akomisaki yango banzambe na ye moko, agumbamelaki yango mpe atumbelaki yango mbeka ya malasi.
15 And the anger of the Lord came upon Amasias, and he sent him a prophet, and he said to him, Why hast thou sought the gods of the people, which have not rescued their own people out of thine hand?
Mpo na yango, kanda ya Yawe epelelaki Amatsia; mpe Yawe atindaki mosakoli moko kotuna Amatsia: — Mpo na nini ozali kogumbamela banzambe ya bato wana oyo ekokaki ata kokangola bato na yango te na loboko na yo?
16 And it came to pass when the prophet was speaking to him, that he said to him, have I made thee king's counsellor? take heed lest thou be scourged: and the prophet forebore, and said, I know that [God] is disposed against thee to destroy thee, because thou hast done this thing, and hast not hearkened to my counsel.
Wana azalaki nanu koloba, mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Kata! Nani atie yo mopesi toli ya mokonzi? Kanga monoko na yo, soki te bakoboma yo! Mosakoli abendaki nzoto; kasi, liboso ya kokende, alobaki: — Lokola osali boye mpe oboyi koyoka toli na ngai, nandimisami ete Nzambe azwi mokano ya koboma yo.
17 And Amasias king of Juda took counsel, and sent to Joas, son of Joachaz, son of Jeu, king of Israel, saying, Come, and let us look one another in the face.
Sima na Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, kotuna toli epai ya bapesi toli na ye, abetaki mondenge na Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi mpe koko ya Jewu, mokonzi ya Isalaele; alobaki: — Yaka tobunda!
18 And Joas king of Israel sent to Amasias king of Juda, saying, The thistle that was in Libanus sent to the cedar that was in Libanus, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife; but, behold, thy wild beasts of the field that are in Libanus shall come: and the wild beasts did come, and trod down the thistle.
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 ya Libani elekaki mpe enyataki nzete ya sende.
19 Thou hast said, Behold, I have smitten Idumea, and thy stout heart exalts thee: now stay at home; for why dost thou implicate thyself in mischief, that thou shouldest fall, and Juda with thee.
Solo, ozali komilobela ete olongi Edomi, mpe motema ezali kosepela mpe komikumisa. Tala, ekoleka malamu ete ovanda na ndako na yo. Mpo na nini koluka ete pasi makasi ekweyela yo elongo na Yuda?
20 Nevertheless Amasias hearkened not, for it was of the Lord to deliver him into [the enemy's] hands, because he sought after the gods of the Idumeans.
Kasi Amatsia ayokaki ye te, pamba te Nzambe nde asalaki bongo mpo na kokaba bango na maboko ya Joasi, mpo ete basambelaki banzambe ya Edomi.
21 So Joas king of Israel went up; and they saw one another, he and Amasias king of Juda, in Baethsamys, which is of Juda.
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.
22 And Juda was put to flight before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.
Isalaele alongaki Yuda, mpe bato ya Yuda bakimaki, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
23 And Joas king of Israel took prisoner Amasias king of Juda, [son] of Joas, son of Joachaz, in Baethsamys, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he pulled down [part] of the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akangaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi mpe koko ya Yoakazi, na Beti-Shemeshi. Amemaki ye 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.
24 And [he took] all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord and with Abdedom, and the treasures of the king's house, and the hostages, and he returned to Samaria.
Joasi akamataki palata nyonso, wolo nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Nzambe oyo Obedi-Edomi azalaki kobatela, kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi; akangaki bato na bowumbu mpe azongaki na Samari.
25 And Amasias the [son] of Joas king of Juda lived after the death of Joas the [son] of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
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.
26 And the rest of the acts of Amasias, the first and the last, Lo! are they not written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Amatsia mpe misala na ye, kobanda na ebandeli kino na suka, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele.
27 And at the time when Amasias departed from the Lord, then they formed a conspiracy against him; and he fled from Jerusalem to Lachis: and they sent after him to Lachis, and slew him there.
Kobanda na tango oyo Amatsia apesaki Yawe mokongo, 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.
28 And they took him up on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of David.
Bamemaki nzoto na ye na likolo ya mpunda mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Yuda.
