Chronicles II 16
1 And in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of Asa, the king of Israel went up against Juda, and built Rama, so as not to allow egress or ingress to Asa king of Juda.
Na mobu ya tuku misato na motoba ya bokonzi ya Asa, Baesha, mokonzi ya Isalaele, abundisaki Yuda; alendisaki bamir ya engumba Rama mpo na kopekisa bato kokota to kobima na mokili ya Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda.
2 And Asa took silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's house, and sent [them] to the son of Ader king of Syria, which lived in Damascus, saying,
Asa azwaki na bibombelo bomengo ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe ya ndako na ye moko palata mpe wolo, mpe atindaki yango epai ya Beni-Adadi, mokonzi ya Siri, oyo azalaki kovanda na Damasi. Atindelaki ye mpe maloba oyo:
3 Make a covenant between me and you, and between my father and your father: behold, I have sent you gold and silver: come, and turn away from me Baasa king of Israel, and let him depart from me.
« Tika ete tosala boyokani kati na ngai mpe yo ndenge ezalaki kati na tata na ngai mpe tata na yo. Tala, natindeli yo palata mpe wolo. Kende kokata boyokani na yo elongo na Baesha, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo ete abundisa ngai lisusu te. »
4 And the son of Ader listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his host against the cities of Israel; and struck Aeon, and Dan, and Abelmain, and all the country round Nephthali.
Beni-Adadi andimaki maloba ya mokonzi Asa mpe atindaki bakonzi ya basoda na ye kobundisa bingumba ya Isalaele. Babotolaki Iyoni, Dani, Abele-Mayimi mpe bibombelo nyonso ya bingumba ya Nefitali.
5 And it came to pass when Baasa heard [it] he left off building Rama, and put a stop to his work:
Tango kaka Baesha ayokaki bongo, atikaki kolendisa engumba Rama mpe akataki misala na yango.
6 then king Asa took all Juda, and took the stones of Rama, and its timber, [with] which Baasa [had] built; and he built with them Gabae and Maspha.
Bongo mokonzi Asa asangisaki bato nyonso ya Yuda, mpe bamemaki wuta na Rama mabanga mpe mabaya oyo Baesha azalaki kosalela. Atongaki na yango Geba mpe engumba Mitsipa.
7 And at that time came Anani the prophet to Asa king of Juda, and said to him, Because you did trust on the king of Syria, and did not trust on the Lord your God, therefore the army of Syria is escaped out of your hand.
Na tango wana, Anani, momoni makambo, akendeki epai ya Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpe alobaki na ye: — Lokola otie elikya na yo na mokonzi ya Siri na esika ya kotia elikya na yo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ozali lisusu na bokonzi te likolo ya mampinga ya mokonzi ya Siri.
8 Were not the Ethiopians and Libyans a great force, in courage, in horsemen, in great numbers? and did not He deliver them into your hands, because you trusted in the Lord?
Boni, bato ya Etiopi mpe ya Libi bazalaki te mampinga minene ya basoda elongo na bashar mpe basoda ebele oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda? Kasi lokola ozalaki kotia elikya na yo kati na Ye, Yawe akabaki bango solo na maboko na yo.
9 For the eyes of the Lord look upon all the earth, to strengthen every heart that is perfect towards him. In this you have done foolishly; henceforth there shall be war with you.
Pamba te Yawe atalaka mokili mobimba mpo na kosunga bato oyo mitema na bango emipesa mobimba epai na Ye. Nzokande, na likambo oyo, osali lokola moto oyo azangi mayele. Mpo na yango, kobanda lelo, okozalaka na bitumba tango nyonso.
10 And Asa was angry with the prophet, and put him in prison, for he was angry at this: and Asa vexed some of the people at that time.
Mokonzi Asa asilikelaki makasi momoni makambo mpe abwakaki ye na boloko. Kaka na tango yango, Asa anyokolaki ndambo ya bato.
11 And, behold, the acts of Asa, the first and the last, [are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
Makambo mpe misala mosusu ya Asa, kobanda na ebandeli kino na suka, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele.
12 And Asa was diseased [in] his feet in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, until he was very ill: but in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.
Na mobu ya tuku misato na libwa ya bokonzi na ye, Asa abelaki makasi makolo; mpe, ezala na tango oyo azali kobela makasi, alukaki Yawe te, kasi akendeki epai ya minganga.
13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the forties year of his reign.
Na mobu ya tuku minei na moko ya bokonzi na ye, Asa akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye.
14 And they buried him in the sepulchre which he had dug for himself in the city of David, and they laid him on a bed, and filled [it] with spices and [all] kinds of perfumes of the apothecaries; and they made for him a very great funeral.
Bakundaki ye kati na kunda oyo asalisaki kati na engumba ya Davidi. Balalisaki ye na mbeto moko etonda na malasi, na biloko ya mike-mike ya solo kitoko mpe na kisi oyo basalelaka mpo na kokawusa nzoto ya mowei; mpe batumbaki biloko yango ebele mpo na lokumu na ye.
