< Kings IV 11 >

1 And Gotholia the mother of Ochozias saw that her son was dead, and she destroyed all the seed royal.
Tango Atali, mama ya Akazia, amonaki ete mwana na ye ya mobali akufi, abomisaki libota mobimba ya mokonzi.
2 And Josabee daughter of king Joram, sister of Ochozias, took Joas the son of her brother, and stole him from amongst the king's sons that were put to death, [secreting] him and his nurse in the bedchamber, and hid him from the face of Gotholia, and he was not slain.
Kasi Yeosheba, mwana mwasi ya mokonzi Yorami mpe ndeko ya Akazia, azwaki Joasi, mwana mobali ya Akazia; alongolaki ye na mayele kati na bana mibali ya mokonzi, oyo basengeli koboma mpe atiaki ye mpe ndesi na ye kati na shambre epai wapi batiaka bambeto, mpo na kobomba ye mosika ya miso ya Atali; mpe Atali abomaki Joasi te.
3 And he remained with her hid in the house of the Lord six years: and Gotholia reigned over the land.
Abombamaki elongo na ndesi na ye mibu motoba kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, wana Atali azalaki kokonza mokili.
4 And in the seventh year Jodae sent and took the captains of hundreds of the Chorri and of the Rhasim, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and made a covenant of the Lord with them, and adjured them, and Jodae showed them the king's son.
Na mobu ya sambo, Yeoyada abengisaki bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko ya bato ya Kari mpe bakengeli. Abengisaki bango epai na ye kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, asalaki boyokani elongo na bango, alapisaki bango ndayi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe alakisaki bango mwana mobali ya mokonzi.
5 And charged them, saying, This [is] the thing which you shall do.
Apesaki bango mitindo oyo: « Tala ndenge bokosala: kati na bandambo misato ya lisanga na bino, ndambo moko bakosala na mokolo ya Saba; ndambo ya liboso bakokengela ndako ya mokonzi,
6 Let a third part of you go in [on] the sabbath-day, and keep you the watch of the king's house in the porch; and another third in the gate of the high way, and a third at the gate behind the footmen; and keep you the guard of the house.
ndambo ya mibale bakozala na ekuke ya Suri, mpe ndambo ya misato bakokengela ekuke, na sima ya ndako ya bakengeli. Bandambo nyonso misato bakokitana, moko sima na mosusu, kati na mosala ya kokengela Tempelo.
7 And there [shall be] two parties amongst you, even every one that goes out on the Sabbath, and they shall keep the guard of the Lord's house before the king.
Bandambo mibale oyo bakosala te na mokolo ya Saba bakokengela Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na mokonzi.
8 And do you compass the king about every man with his weapon in his hand, and he that goes into the ranges shall die: and they shall be with the king in his going out and in his coming in.
Bakozingela mokonzi, moto na moto na ebundeli na ye na loboko. Moto nyonso oyo akopusana na molongo na bino, bosengeli koboma ye. Bozala pene ya mokonzi na bisika nyonso oyo akokende. »
9 And the captains of hundreds did all things that the wise Jodae commanded; and they took each his men, both those that went in on the sabbath-day, and those that went out on the sabbath-day, and went in to Jodae the priest.
Bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko basalaki nyonso oyo Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada atindaki. Moko na moko akamataki basoda na ye, ba-oyo bazalaki kokota na mosala na mokolo ya Saba mpe ba-oyo basilisaki mosala na bango na mokolo yango, mpe akendeki epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada.
10 And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the swords and spears of king David that were in the house of the Lord.
Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada apesaki na bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko makonga mpe banguba oyo ezalaki ya mokonzi Davidi, oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
11 And the footmen stood each with his weapon in his hand from the right corner of the house to the left corner of the house, [by] the altar and the house round about the king.
Bakengeli bazingelaki mokonzi, moko na moko na ebundeli na ye na loboko, pembeni ya etumbelo mpe ya Tempelo, wuta na ngambo ya sude kino na ngambo ya nor ya Tempelo.
12 And he brought forth the king's son, and put upon him the crown and [gave him] the testimony; and he made him king, and anointed him: and they clapped [their] hands, and said, Long live the king.
Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada abimisaki mwana mobali ya mokonzi, alatisaki ye motole mpe apesaki ye mokanda ya boyokani. Bakomisaki ye mokonzi mpe bapakolaki ye mafuta ya bokonzi. Bato babetaki maboko mpe bagangaki: « Tika ete mokonzi awumela na bomoi! »
13 And Gotholia heard the sound of the people running, and she went in to the people to the house of the Lord.
Tango Atali ayokaki makelele oyo bato mpe bakengeli bazalaki kosala, akendeki epai ya bato, na Tempelo ya Yawe.
14 And she looked, and, behold, the king stood near a pillar according to the manner; and the singers and the trumpeters were before the king and all the people of the land [even] rejoicing and sounding with trumpets: and Gotholia tore her garments, and cried, A conspiracy, a conspiracy.
Atalaki mpe amonaki mokonzi atelemi na etemelo ya kolobela, ndenge ezalaki momesano. Bakonzi ya basoda mpe bato oyo babetaka bakelelo bazalaki pembeni ya mokonzi; bato nyonso ya mokili bazalaki kosepela wana bazalaki kobeta bakelelo. Atali apasolaki bilamba na ye mpe agangaki: « Basaleli ngai likita! Basaleli ngai likita! »
15 And Jodae the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were over the host, and said to them, Bring her forth without the ranges, [and] he that goes in after her shall certainly die by the sword. For the priest said, Let her not however be slain in the house of the Lord.
Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada apesaki mitindo epai ya bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko: « Bobimisa ye na molongo! Mpe boboma na mopanga moto nyonso oyo akolanda ye! » Pamba te Nganga-Nzambe alobaki: « Boboma ye te kati na Tempelo ya Yawe! »
16 And they laid hands upon her, and went in by the way of the horses' entrance into the house of the Lord, and she was slain there.
Boye, wana Atali azwaki nzela ya ekotelo ya bampunda mpo na kokende na ndako ya mokonzi, bakangaki ye mpe babomaki ye kuna.
17 And Jodae made a covenant between the Lord and the king and the people, that they should be the Lord's people; also between the king and the people.
Yeoyada asalaki boyokani kati na Yawe, mokonzi mpe bato, mpo ete bazala bato ya Yawe; asalaki lisusu boyokani kati na mokonzi mpe bato.
18 And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and tore it down, and completely broke in pieces his altars and his images, and they killed Mathan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed overseers over the house of the Lord.
Bato nyonso ya mokili bakendeki na ndako ya nzambe Bala mpe babukaki yango elongo na bitumbelo mpe bikeko, mpe babomaki Matani, nganga-nzambe ya Bala, liboso ya bitumbelo. Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada atiaki bakengeli ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
19 And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the Chorri, and the Rhasim, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king out of the house of the Lord; and they went in by the way of the gate of the footmen of the king's house, and seated him there on the throne of the kings.
Asangisaki bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko, bato ya Kari, bakengeli mpe bato nyonso ya mokili; amemaki mokonzi longwa na Tempelo ya Yawe kino na ndako ya mokonzi, na nzela ya ekuke ya bakengeli. Bongo Joasi avandaki na kiti na ye ya bokonzi.
20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was at rest: and they killed Gotholia with the sword in the house of the king.
Bato nyonso ya mokili basepelaki, mpe engumba ekomaki na kimia, pamba te babomaki Atali na mopanga kati na ndako ya mokonzi.
21 Joas [was] seven years old when he began to reign.
Joasi azalaki na mibu sambo ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi.
