2 Chronicles 34
1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
Joziasi azalaki na mibu mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku misato na moko na Yelusalemi.
2 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the ways of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand nor to the left.
Asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe mpe alandaki banzela oyo Davidi, tata na ye, atambolaki na yango: apengwaki na yango te, ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi to na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.
3 And in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the Asherahs, and the graven images, and the molten images.
Na mobu ya mwambe ya bokonzi na ye, lokola azalaki nanu elenge, akomaki koluka Nzambe ya Davidi, tata na ye; bongo na mobu ya zomi na mibale, akomaki kopetola Yuda mpe Yelusalemi na kopekisa bato kokende na bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, na kobuka makonzi ya bule ya nzambe mwasi Ashera elongo na bikeko ya banzambe basala na nzete mpe na bibende oyo banyangwisa na moto.
4 And they broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence; and the sun-pillars that were on high above them he cut down; and the Asherahs and the graven images and the molten images he broke in pieces, and made dust [of them] and strewed it upon the graves of those that had sacrificed to them;
Babukaki liboso na ye bitumbelo ya banzambe Bala, bakweyisaki mbala moko bitumbelo malasi oyo ezalaki na likolo na yango, abukaki makonzi ya bule ya nzambe mwasi Ashera, bikeko ya banzambe basala na nzete mpe na bibende oyo banyangwisa na moto; akomisaki yango putulu mpe asopaki putulu yango na likolo ya bakunda ya bato oyo babonzelaki banzambe yango bambeka.
5 and he burned the bones of the priests upon their altars, and purged Judah and Jerusalem.
Atumbaki mikuwa ya banganga-nzambe ya bikeko na likolo ya bitumbelo na yango. Ezalaki ndenge wana nde apetolaki Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
6 And [so did he] in the cities of Manasseh and Ephraim and Simeon, even to Naphtali, in their ruins round about;
Abukaki bitumbelo kati na bingumba ya Manase, ya Efrayimi, ya Simeoni kino na Nefitali mpe na bamboka na yango ya zingazinga.
7 and he broke down the altars, and beat the Asherahs and the graven images into powder, and cut down all the sun-pillars throughout the land of Israel, and returned to Jerusalem.
Abukaki makonzi ya bule ya nzambe mwasi Ashera elongo na bikeko ya banzambe mpe akomisaki yango putulu. Akweyisaki lisusu bitumbelo malasi nyonso kati na mokili mobimba ya Isalaele. Bongo, azongaki na Yelusalemi.
8 And in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he purged the land and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the chronicler, to repair the house of Jehovah his God.
Tango Joziasi akokisaki mibu zomi na mwambe na bokonzi, mpo na kopetola mokili mpe Tempelo, atindaki Shafani, mwana mobali ya Atsalia; Maaseya, moyangeli ya engumba; mpe Yoa, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi mpe mobombi mikanda, mpo na kobongisa Tempelo ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
9 And they came to Hilkijah the high priest, and they delivered [to them] the money that had been brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Bakendeki epai ya Ilikia, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, mpe bapesaki ye mbongo oyo bazwaki na Tempelo ya Nzambe, mbongo oyo Balevi oyo bazalaki kokengela ekotelo bakongolaki lokola makabo mpo na Tempelo na maboko ya bato ya Manase, ya Efrayimi, ya batikali ya Isalaele, ya bato nyonso ya Yuda, ya Benjame mpe ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi.
10 And they gave [it] into the hand of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of Jehovah; and they gave it to the workmen who wrought in the house of Jehovah to reinstate and repair the house:
Bapesaki mbongo yango na maboko ya batambolisi misala ya Tempelo ya Yawe. Bato yango bafutaki basali oyo bazalaki kobongisa mpe kolendisa Tempelo yango;
11 they gave [it] to the carpenters and the builders, to buy hewn stone, and timber for the joists, and to floor the houses that the kings of Judah had destroyed.
bapesaki lisusu epai ya basharipantie mpe batongi Tempelo mpo ete basomba mabanga bakata elongo na mabaya mpo na motondo, mpe mpo ete batonga bandako mosusu oyo bakonzi ya Yuda bazalaki kobongisa te tango ezalaki kobeba.
12 And the men did the work faithfully. And over them were appointed Jahath and Obadiah, Levites, of the children of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the children of the Kohathites, for the oversight; and all these Levites were skilled in instruments of music.
Bato yango basalaki mosala na bango na boyengebene mpe na bokambami ya Balevi Yaati mpe Abidiasi, bana mibali ya Merari. Zakari mpe Meshulami, bana mibali ya Keati, nde bazalaki kokengela mosala na bango.
13 They were also over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that worked in any manner of service. And of the Levites were the scribes, and officers, and doorkeepers.
Balevi yango bayebaki mpe kobeta mindule; bazalaki kokengela bato oyo bazalaki komema biloko ya mosala mpe kokamba ba-oyo nyonso bazalaki kosala misala na bisika nyonso oyo mosala ezalaki kosalema. Balevi mosusu bazalaki bakomi mikanda, balakisi ya Mobeko mpe bakengeli bikuke.
14 And when they brought out the money that had been brought into the house of Jehovah, Hilkijah the priest found the book of the law of Jehovah by Moses.
Tango bazalaki kobimisa mbongo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia amonaki buku ya Mobeko ya Yawe, oyo epesamaki na nzela ya Moyize.
15 Then Hilkijah spoke and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkijah gave the book to Shaphan.
Ilikia alobaki na Shafani, mokomi mikanda: — Namoni buku ya Mobeko kati na Tempelo ya Yawe! Mpe apesaki buku yango epai ya Shafani.
16 And Shaphan carried the book to the king. And moreover he brought the king word again saying, All that was committed to the hand of thy servants, they do;
Shafani azwaki buku yango, amemaki yango epai ya mokonzi mpe ayebisaki ye: — Basali na yo bazali kosala makambo nyonso oyo otindaki bango.
17 and they have emptied out the money that was found in the house of Jehovah, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and into the hand of the workmen.
Bapesi mbongo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe epai ya batambolisi misala mpe epai ya bato oyo bazali kosala misala.
18 And Shaphan the scribe informed the king saying, Hilkijah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read out of it before the king.
Mokomi mikanda, Shafani, alobaki na mokonzi: — Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia apesi ngai buku moko. Mpe Shafani atangaki buku yango liboso ya mokonzi.
19 And it came to pass when the king heard the words of the law, that he rent his garments.
Tango mokonzi ayokaki maloba ya Mobeko, apasolaki bilamba na ye,
20 And the king commanded Hilkijah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king, saying,
apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya Ilikia, epai ya Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani; epai ya Abidoni, mwana mobali ya Mishe; epai ya Shafani, mokomi mikanda, mpe epai ya Asaya, moko kati na bakalaka ya mokonzi:
21 Go, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book which is found; for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of Jehovah, to do according to all that is written in this book.
— Bokende kotuna toli ya Yawe mpo na ngai mpe mpo na batikali ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda; botuna na tina na makambo oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ewuti komonana, pamba te kanda ya Yawe, oyo ekweyeli biso ezali makasi mpo ete batata na biso batosaki te Liloba na Yawe mpe basalaki te kolanda nyonso oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo.
22 And Hilkijah and they that the king [had appointed] went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokehath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe: now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter [of the town]; and they spoke with her to that effect.
Ilikia elongo na bato oyo mokonzi aponaki bakendeki epai ya mwasi mosakoli Ulida, mwasi ya Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Tokeati, mwana mobali ya Asira, mobombi bilamba ya Tempelo. Ulida azalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi, na etuka ya sika. Balobaki na ye ndenge bayokanaki.
23 And she said to them, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me,
Ulida alobaki na bango: — Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Boloba na tata oyo atindi bino epai na Ngai:
24 Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah.
‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakobengisa pasi makasi na esika oyo mpe na bavandi na yango kolanda bilakeli mabe nyonso oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo bawuti kotanga liboso ya mokonzi ya Yuda. ›
25 Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my fury shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.
Lokola basundolaki Ngai mpe batumbaki mbeka ya malasi mpo na banzambe mosusu kino kotumbola kanda na Ngai na nzela ya biloko oyo maboko na bango esilaki kosala, kanda na Ngai ekopela makasi na esika oyo, mpe ekokita te.
26 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus shall ye say to him: Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel touching the words which thou hast heard:
Kasi boloba na mokonzi ya Yuda oyo atindi bino kotuna toli ya Yawe: ‹ Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na maloba oyo oyokaki:
27 Because thy heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy garments and weep before me, I also have heard [thee], saith Jehovah.
Lokola motema na yo etutami, lokola omikitisi liboso ya Nzambe sima na yo koyoka maloba na Ye mpo na kotelemela esika oyo mpe bavandi na yango, lokola omikitisi liboso na Ngai, lokola opasoli bilamba na yo mpe oleli liboso na Ngai, Ngai mpe nayoki, › elobi Yawe,
28 Behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof. And they brought the king word again.
‹ nakosala ete okende kokutana na bakoko na yo, oyo bakufa; mpe okokundama na kimia kati na moko na bakunda na yo. Na bongo, miso na yo ekomona te pasi nyonso oyo nakotindela esika oyo mpe bavandi na yango. › » Batindami bakomisaki eyano oyo epai ya mokonzi.
29 And the king sent and gathered all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
Mokonzi Joziasi abengisaki bampaka nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi.
30 And the king went up into the house of Jehovah, and all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests and the Levites, and all the people, great and small; and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which had been found in the house of Jehovah.
Bongo akendeki na Tempelo ya Yawe elongo na bato nyonso ya Yuda, bavandi nyonso ya Yelusalemi, Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi, bato nyonso, kobanda na oyo aleki na lokumu kino na oyo aleki na se. Mokonzi atangelaki bango makomi nyonso ya buku ya Boyokani oyo emonanaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
31 And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all his heart and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that are written in this book.
Mokonzi atelemaki na etemelo na ye ya kolobela mpe asalaki boyokani oyo liboso ya Yawe: — Nalapi ndayi ete nakolanda Yawe, nakotosa mibeko, mitindo mpe malako na Ye, na motema mpe na elimo na ngai mobimba; mpe nakotosa maloba ya boyokani, oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo.
32 And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand [to it]. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
Mokonzi alapisaki ndayi yango bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi mpe kati na etuka ya Benjame. Mpe bavandi ya Yelusalemi batambolaki kolanda boyokani ya Nzambe, Nzambe ya batata na bango.
33 And Josiah removed all the abominations out of all the countries that belonged to the children of Israel, and made to serve all that were found in Israel, — to serve Jehovah their God: all his days they did not depart from following Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
Joziasi alongolaki banzambe nyonso ya bikeko ya nkele kati na bituka nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele. Apesaki mitindo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na Isalaele ete basalela Yawe, Nzambe na bango. Na bongo, na mikolo nyonso ya bomoi ya Joziasi, bapengwaki te liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango.
