< Chronicles II 36 >
1 And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king over Jerusalem in the room of his father.
Bato ya mokili bazwaki Yoakazi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kokitana na tata na ye.
2 Joachaz [was] twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done. And Pharao Nechao bound him in Deblatha in the land of Aemath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem.
Yoakazi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na misato ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato na Yelusalemi.
3 And the king brought him over to Egypt; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Mokonzi ya Ejipito alongolaki ye na bokonzi kati na Yelusalemi mpe asengaki na makasi ete mokili ya Yuda ekoma kofuta mpako mpo na mokonzi: bakilo nkoto misato na nkama minei ya palata mpe ya wolo.
4 And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim the son of Josias king over Juda in the room of his father Josias, and changed his name [to] Joakim. And Pharao Nechao took his brother Joachaz and brought him into Egypt, and he died there: but [he] had given the silver and gold to Pharao. At that time the land began to be taxed to give the money at the command of Pharao; and every one as he could borrowed the silver and the gold of the people of the land, to give to Pharao Nechao.
Mokonzi ya Ejipito akomisaki Eliakimi, ndeko mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Yelusalemi mpe ya Yuda; abongolaki kombo na ye mpe akomisaki yango « Yeoyakimi. » Kasi Neko akangaki Yoakazi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mpe amemaki ye na Ejipito.
5 Joachim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
Yeoyakimi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
6 And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him away to Babylon.
Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, abundisaki ye mpe akangaki ye minyololo ya bronze mpo na komema ye na Babiloni.
7 And he carried away a part of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.
Nabukodonozori amemaki mpe na Babiloni ndambo ya biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe atiaki yango kati na ndako na ye ya bokonzi.
8 And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in Ganozae: and Jechonias his son reigned in his stead.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, misala na ye ya nkele mpe makambo oyo ekweyelaki ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda. Yeoyakini, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
9 Jechonias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
Yeoyakini azalaki na mibu zomi na mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato mpe mikolo zomi na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe.
10 And at the turn of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Sedekias his father's brother king over Juda and Jerusalem.
Na suka ya mobu, mokonzi Nabukodonozori abengisaki ye mpe amemaki ye na Babiloni elongo na biloko ya motuya ya Tempelo ya Yawe; akomisaki Sedesiasi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi.
11 Sedekias [was] twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and be reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
Sedesiasi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na moko ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi.
12 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God: he was not ashamed before the prophet Jeremias, nor because of the word of the Lord;
Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye, mpe amikitisaki te liboso ya mosakoli Jeremi oyo azalaki koloba na Kombo na Yawe.
13 in that he rebelled against king Nabuchodonosor, which he adjured him by God [not to do]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart, so as not to return to the Lord God of Israel.
Lisusu, atombokelaki mokonzi Nabukodonozori oyo alapisaki ye ndayi na Kombo ya Nzambe. Na esika ete azonga epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, akomaki moto makasi mpe akomisaki motema na ye libanga.
14 And all the great men of Juda, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.
Bakonzi nyonso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato bakomaki lisusu kosala mabe koleka, balandaki misala nyonso ya nkele ya bikolo ya bapaya mpe babebisaki bosantu ya Tempelo ya Yawe oyo Ye moko Yawe abulisaki na Yelusalemi.
15 And the Lord God of their fathers sent by the hand of his prophets; rising early and sending his messengers, for he spared his people, and his sanctuary.
Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, atindelaki bango, mbala na mbala mpe na ngonga malamu, makebisi na nzela ya bamemi sango na Ye, pamba te azalaki na posa ya kobatela bato na Ye mpe Tempelo na Ye.
16 Nevertheless they sneered at his messengers, and set at nothing his words, and mocked his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against his people, till there was no remedy.
Kasi bato ya Isalaele bazalaki kotiola bamemi sango ya Nzambe, bazalaki komona pamba makebisi na Ye mpe bazalaki kowolola basakoli na Ye kino Yawe kosilikela bato na Ye makasi; mpe bakokaki kosala eloko moko te mpo na komibikisa liboso ya kanda makasi ya Yawe.
17 And he brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, and killed their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, and did not spare Sedekias, and had no mercy upon their virgins, and they led away their old men: he delivered all things into their hands.
Boye, mpo na kobebisa bango, Yawe atindaki mokonzi ya bato ya Babiloni, oyo abomaki na mopanga bilenge na bango kati na esika na bango ya bule; abikisaki te ezala elenge mobali, elenge mwasi, mokolo to mobange. Nzambe akabaki nyonso na maboko ya Nabukodonozori.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and all the treasures of the king and the great men; he brought all to Babylon.
Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni biloko nyonso ya Tempelo ya Nzambe, ya minene to ya mike, bozwi ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bozwi ya mokonzi mpe ya bakalaka na ye.
19 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt its palaces with fire, and [utterly destroyed] every beautiful vessel.
Batumbaki na moto Tempelo ya Nzambe, babukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, batumbaki na moto bandako na yango ya kitoko mpe babebisaki biloko nyonso ya motuya.
20 And he carried away the remnant to Babylon; and they were servants to him and to his sons until [the establishment of] the kingdom of the Medes.
Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni bato oyo babikaki na mopanga, akomisaki bango bawumbu na ye mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali kino na tango mokili ya Persi ezwaki bokonzi.
21 That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, until the land should enjoy its sabbaths in resting [and] sabbath keeping all the days of its desolation, till the accomplishment of seventy years.
Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Liloba na Yawe ekokisamaki, liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi: « Mokili ekozwa bopemi na mikolo nyonso oyo bakosundola yango, ekosepela na basaba na yango kino tango mibu tuku sambo ekokoka. »
22 In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, after the fulfilment of the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and told him to make proclamation in writing throughout all his kingdom, saying,
Na mobu ya liboso ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Yawe alamusaki molimo ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi mpo ete asakola mpe akoma boye kati na mokili na ye mobimba:
23 Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
« Tala makambo oyo Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, alobi: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe ya Likolo, apesi ngai babokonzi nyonso ya mabele mpe mokumba ya kotongela Ye Tempelo, na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda. Tika ete moto nyonso oyo, kati na bino, azali na molongo ya bato ya Yawe akende; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na ye, azali elongo na ye! › »
