1 Kings 13
1 And behold, by the word of the Lord, a man of God went from Judah to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing over the altar, and burning incense.
Moto moko na Nzambe alongwaki na Yuda mpe akendeki na Beteli, kolanda etinda na Yawe, wana Jeroboami atelemaki pembeni ya etumbelo mpo na kotumba ansa.
2 And by the word of the Lord, he cried out against the altar. And he said: “O altar, O altar! Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, a son will be born to the house of David, Josiah by name. And upon you, he will immolate the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon you. And upon you, he will burn up the bones of men.’”
Kolanda etinda na Yawe, moto na Nzambe agangaki makasi mpo na kolakela etumbelo mabe: « Etumbelo, etumbelo! Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Mwana mobali moko akobotama na ndako ya Davidi, kombo na ye ekozala Joziasi. Akotumba na likolo na yo lokola mbeka banganga-nzambe ya bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, oyo batumbaka ansa na likolo na yo. Mpe na likolo na yo, etumbelo, bakotumba mikuwa ya bato! › »
3 And he gave a sign on the same day, saying: “This will be the sign that the Lord has spoken. Behold, the altar shall be torn apart, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.”
Na mokolo wana kaka, moto na Nzambe apesaki elembo: — Tala elembo oyo elakisi ete ezali Yawe nde alobi: Etumbelo ekobukana mpe putulu oyo ezali likolo na yango ekopanzana.
4 And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, he extended his hand from the altar, saying, “Apprehend him!” But his hand, which he had extended against him, withered. And he was unable to draw it back to himself.
Tango mokonzi Jeroboami ayokaki bilakeli mabe oyo moto na Nzambe alobaki mpo na etumbelo ya Beteli, asembolaki loboko na ye wuta na etumbelo mpe alobaki: — Bokanga ye! Kasi loboko oyo Jeroboami asembolaki epai ya moto na Nzambe ekawukaki, mpe akokaki lisusu te kozongisa yango epai na ye.
5 Also, the altar was torn apart, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, in accord with the sign that the man of God had predicted by the word of the Lord.
Kaka na tango yango, etumbelo ebukanaki mpe putulu epanzanaki. Ezalaki penza elembo oyo moto na Nzambe apesaki kolanda etinda na Yawe.
6 And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat the face of the Lord your God, and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God prayed before the face of the Lord, and the hand of the king was restored to him, and it became as it had been before.
Mokonzi alobaki na moto na Nzambe: — Bondela Yawe, Nzambe na yo, mpe sambela mpo na ngai ete loboko na ngai ebonga. Moto na Nzambe abondelaki Yawe, mpe loboko ya mokonzi ebongaki, ezongaki ndenge ezalaki liboso.
7 Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.”
Bongo mokonzi alobaki na moto na Nzambe: — Tokende na ndako mpo ete ozwa eloko ya kolia mpe napesa yo kado.
8 And the man of God responded to the king: “Even if you will give me one half part of your house, I will not go with you, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place.
Kasi moto na Nzambe azongiselaki mokonzi: — Ata soki opesi ngai kati-kati ya bozwi na yo, nakokende epai na yo te, nakolia lipa te mpe nakomela ata litanga ya mayi te na esika oyo.
9 For so it was commanded to me by the word of the Lord, ordering: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water, nor shall you return by the way that you came.’”
Pamba te Yawe apesaki ngai mitindo oyo: « Osengeli te kolia lipa, komela mayi mpe kozongela na nzela oyo oyelaki. »
10 Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
Boye, akendeki na nzela mosusu mpe azongaki te na nzela oyo ayelaki na Beteli.
11 Now a certain elderly prophet was living in Bethel. His sons went to him, and they described to him all the works which the man of God had accomplished on that day in Bethel. And they described to their father the words that he had spoken to the king.
Nzokande, mosakoli moko ya mobange azalaki kovanda na Beteli; bana na ye ya mibali bayaki koyebisa ye makambo nyonso oyo moto na Nzambe asalaki na Beteli, na mokolo wana, mpe oyo alobaki na mokonzi.
12 And their father said to them, “By which way did he depart?” His sons showed him the way by which the man of God, who had come from Judah, had departed.
Tata na bango atunaki bango: — Azongi na nzela nini? Bana na ye ya mibali balakisaki ye nzela oyo moto na Nzambe, oyo awutaki na Yuda, azongelaki.
13 And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it, he climbed on,
Bongo alobaki na bana na ye ya mibali: — Bobongisela ngai ane. Sima na bana na ye kobongisela ye ane, amataki likolo na yango,
14 and he went away after the man of God. And he found him sitting under a terebinth tree. And he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he responded, “I am.”
alandaki moto na Nzambe mpe akutaki ye avandi na se ya nzete ya Terebente. Atunaki ye: — Ozali solo moto na Nzambe oyo awuti na Yuda? Moto na Nzambe azongisaki: — Iyo, ezali nde ngai.
15 And he said to him, “Come home with me, so that you may eat bread.”
Mosakoli alobaki na ye: — Yaka kolia mesa moko na ngai, na ndako na ngai.
16 But he said: “I am not able to turn back, nor to go with you. Neither will I eat bread, or drink water in this place.
Moto na Nzambe alobaki: — Nakoki te kozonga to kotambola nzela moko na yo; nakoki mpe te kolia lipa to komela mayi elongo na yo na esika oyo,
17 For the Lord has spoken to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, “You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water in that place, nor shall you return by the way that you arrived.”
pamba te Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Osengeli te kolia lipa, komela mayi mpe kozongela na nzela oyo oyelaki. »
18 And he said to him: “I, too, am a prophet like you. And an Angel spoke to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Lead him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread, and drink water.’” And so he deceived him.
Mosakoli ya mobange azongisaki: — Ngai mpe nazali mosakoli lokola yo. Anjelu moko ya Yawe alobaki na ngai kolanda etinda na Yawe: « Zonga na ye nzela moko na ndako na yo mpo ete alia lipa mpe amela mayi. » Nzokande azalaki kokosa ye.
19 And he led him back with him. Then he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Boye, moto na Nzambe azongaki nzela moko na ye na Beteli, aliaki mpe amelaki kati na ndako na ye.
20 And while they were sitting at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had led him back.
Wana bavandaki na mesa, Yawe alobaki na mosakoli ya mobange, oyo azongisaki moto na Nzambe,
21 And he cried out to the man of God who had arrived from Judah, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Because you were not obedient to the mouth of the Lord, and you did not keep the commandment that the Lord your God instructed to you,
mpe agangelaki moto na Nzambe oyo awutaki na Yuda: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Mpo ete otosi te Liloba na Yawe mpe obateli te etinda oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apesaki yo;
22 and you turned back, and ate bread, and drank water in the place where he commanded you that you should not eat bread, nor drink water: your dead body shall not be carried back to the sepulcher of your fathers.”
mpo ete ozongi, olie lipa mpe omeli mayi na esika oyo napekisaki yo kolia to komela, bakokunda ebembe na yo te kati na kunda ya batata na yo. »
23 And when he had eaten and had drunk, he saddled his donkey for the prophet whom he had led back.
Tango moto na Nzambe asilisaki kolia mpe komela, mosakoli ya mobange abongisaki ane ya moto na Nzambe oyo azongisaki sima,
24 And when he had departed, a lion found him along the way, and it killed him, and his dead body was left upon the road. Now the donkey was standing beside him. And the lion was standing beside the dead body.
mpe moto na Nzambe azongelaki nzela na ye. Wana azalaki kokende, akutanaki na nkosi na nzela, mpe nkosi yango ebomaki ye. Ebembe na ye etikalaki na nzela, nkosi mpe ane etelemaki pembeni ya ebembe na ye.
25 And behold, men who were passing by saw the dead body lying in the road, with the lion standing beside the body. And they went and made it widely known in the city where that elderly prophet was living.
Bato oyo bazalaki koleka bamonaki ebembe elali na nzela mpe nkosi etelemi pembeni na yango. Bakendeki kopesa sango kati na engumba epai wapi mosakoli ya mobange azalaki kovanda.
26 And when that prophet, who had led him back from the way, had heard it, he said: “It is the man of God, who was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord. And the Lord has delivered him to the lion. And it has torn him apart and killed him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.”
Tango mosakoli ya mobange, oyo azongisaki moto na Nzambe sima, na mobembo na ye, ayokaki sango yango, alobaki: — Ezali solo moto na Nzambe oyo atosaki te mitindo ya Yawe. Yawe akabi ye epai ya nkosi oyo epasoli ye mpe ebomi ye kolandisama na liloba oyo Yawe ayebisaki ye.
27 And he said to his sons, “Saddle a donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it,
Mosakoli ya mobange alobaki na bana na ye ya mibali: — Bobongisela ngai ane! Bana na ye ya mibali babongiselaki ye ane yango.
28 and he had departed, he found the dead body lying on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside the dead body. The lion did not eat from the dead body, nor did it harm the donkey.
Abimaki mpe akutaki ebembe elali na nzela, ane mpe nkosi etelemi pembeni ya ebembe. Nkosi eliaki te ezala ebembe to ane.
29 Then the prophet took the dead body of the man of God, and he placed it upon the donkey, and returning, he brought it into the city of the elderly prophet, so that he might mourn for him.
Mosakoli ya mobange atombolaki ebembe ya moto na Nzambe, atiaki yango na likolo ya ane mpe amemaki yango na engumba na ye mpo na kosalela ye matanga mpe kokunda ye.
30 And he placed his dead body in his own sepulcher. And they mourned for him, saying: “Alas! Alas! My brother!”
Atiaki ebembe kati na kunda na ye moko mpe ayembelaki ye nzembo oyo ya mawa: — Ah, mawa, ndeko na ngai!
31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: “When I will have died, bury me in the sepulcher in which the man of God was buried. Place my bones beside his bones.
Sima na kokunda ye, alobaki na bana na ye ya mibali: — Tango nakokufa, bokokunda ngai kati na lilita epai wapi bakundi moto na Nzambe; bokotia mikuwa na ngai pembeni ya mikuwa na ye.
32 For certainly, the word will arrive, which he predicted by the word of the Lord, against the altar, which is in Bethel, and against all the shrines of the high places, which are in the cities of Samaria.”
Pamba te liloba oyo asakolaki kolanda etinda na Yawe mpo na kolakela mabe, etumbelo ya Beteli mpe bisambelo nyonso ya likolo ya bangomba kati na engumba Samari, ekokokisama solo.
33 After these words, Jeroboam did not turn back from his very evil way. Instead, to the contrary, he made priests for the high places out of the least of the people. Whosoever was willing, he filled his hand, and he became a priest of the high places.
Atako bongo, Jeroboami atikaki te banzela na ye ya mabe, akobaki kaka kotia bato ya mboka na ye lokola banganga-nzambe ya bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; abulisaki lokola nganga-nzambe ya esambelo ya likolo ya ngomba moto nyonso oyo alingaki kokoma nganga-nzambe.
34 And for this reason, the house of Jeroboam sinned, and was uprooted, and was wiped from the face of the earth.
Oyo nde ezalaki lisumu ya ndako ya Jeroboami, oyo ememaki kokweya mpe kobebisama ya bokonzi na ye kati na mokili.
