1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said: This is the house of God, and this is the altar for the holocaust of Israel.
Davidi alobaki: « Tempelo ya Yawe Nzambe mpe etumbelo ya mbeka ya kotumba mpo na Isalaele ekozala na esika oyo. »
2 And he commanded to gather together all the proselytes of the land of Israel, and out of them he appointed stonecutters to hew stones and polish them, to build the house of God.
Boye, Davidi apesaki mitindo ya kosangisa bapaya oyo bazalaki kovanda na Isalaele. Mpe kati na bango, aponaki bato oyo bakataka mabanga mpo na kotonga Ndako ya Nzambe.
3 And David prepared in abundance iron for the nails of the gates, and for the closures and joinings: and of brass an immense weight.
Davidi apesaki bibende ebele mpo na kosala basete mpe bibende oyo esimbaka bikuke. Apesaki lisusu bronze ebele oyo bakoki kotanga te,
4 And the cedar trees were without number, which the Sidonians, and Tyrians brought to David.
banzete ebele ya sedele oyo bakoki kotanga te, pamba te bato ya Tiri mpe ya Sidoni bamemelaki Davidi banzete yango ebele.
5 And David said: Solomon my son is very young and tender, and the house which I would have to be built to the Lord, must be such as to be renowned in all countries: therefore I will prepare him necessaries. And therefore before his death he prepared all the charges.
Davidi alobaki: « Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, azali nanu elenge mpe ayebi nanu makambo malamu te. Nzokande, Ndako oyo esengeli kotongama mpo na Yawe esengeli kozala monene, kitoko mpe na lokumu mingi na miso ya bikolo nyonso. Yango wana, nakobongisa biloko mpo na Ndako yango. » Boye Davidi abongisaki biloko ebele liboso ete akufa.
6 And he called for Solomon his son: and commanded him to build a house to the Lord the God of Israel.
Davidi abengisaki Salomo, mwana na ye ya mobali, mpe apesaki ye mokumba ya kotonga Ndako mpo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
7 And David said to Solomon: My son, it was my desire to have built a house to the name of the Lord my God.
Davidi alobaki na Salomo: « Mwana na ngai, nazwaki likanisi ya kotonga Ndako mpo na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na ngai;
8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Thou hast shed much blood, and fought many battles, so thou canst not build a house to my name, after shedding so much blood before me:
kasi tala maloba oyo Yawe alobaki na ngai: ‹ Osopaki makila ebele mpe obundaki bitumba ebele. Okoki te kotonga ndako mpo na Kombo na Ngai; pamba te kati na mokili, osopaki makila ebele na miso na Ngai.
9 The son, that shall be born to thee, shall be a most quiet man: for I will make him rest from all his enemies round about: and therefore he shall be called Peaceable: and I will give peace and quietness to Israel all his days.
Kasi okozala na mwana moko ya mobali oyo akozala moto ya kimia mpe ya boboto. Nakopesa ye bopemi liboso ya banguna na ye nyonso oyo bazingeli ye. Kombo na ye ekozala Salomo; mpe na mikolo nyonso oyo ye akozala mokonzi, nakopesa kimia mpe bopemi na Isalaele.
10 He shall build a house to my name, and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him: and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
Ye nde akotonga Ndako mpo na Kombo na Ngai. Akozala mwana mpo na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Tata mpo na ye, nakolendisa kiti na ye ya bokonzi kati na Isalaele mpo na libela. ›
11 Now then, my son, the Lord be with thee, and do thou prosper, and build the house to the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken of thee.
Sik’oyo, mwana na ngai, tika ete Yawe azala elongo na yo mpo ete otonga Ndako mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ndenge alobaki na tina na yo!
12 The Lord also give thee wisdom and understanding, that thou mayest be able to rule Israel, and to keep the law of the Lord thy God.
Tika ete apesa yo bwanya mpe mayele, mpo ete tango okokoma mokonzi ya Isalaele, okoka kobatela mobeko ya Yawe Nzambe na yo!
13 For then thou shalt be able to prosper, if thou keep the commandments, and judgments, which the Lord commanded Moses to teach Israel: take courage and act manfully, fear not, nor be dismayed.
Boye, okolonga soki obateli malamu bikateli mpe mibeko oyo Yawe apesaki na Moyize mpo na Isalaele. Zala makasi mpe yika mpiko! Kobanga te mpe kozonga sima te!
14 Behold I in my poverty have prepared the charges of the house of the Lord, of gold a hundred thousand talents, and of silver a million of talents: but of brass, and of iron there is no weight, for the abundance surpasseth all account: timber also and stones I have prepared for all the charges.
Tala, namonaki pasi mpo na kosangisa mpo na Tempelo ya Yawe, minkoko misato ya kilo ya wolo, minkoko tuku misato ya kilo ya palata, bronze mpe bibende ebele oyo bakoki kotanga te, mabaya mpe mabanga. Boye yo mpe okoki kobakisa mosusu.
15 Thou hast also workmen in abundance, hewers of stones, and masons, and carpenters, and of all trades the most skillful in their work,
Ozali na bato ebele ya misala ya maboko: bato oyo bakataka mabanga, bato oyo basalaka misala ya mabaya mpe bato oyo basalaka misala nyonso ya maboko.
16 In gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, whereof there is no number. Arise then, and be doing, and the Lord will be with thee.
Ozali na wolo, palata, bronze mpe bibende ebele oyo bakoki kotanga te. Sik’oyo, banda mosala; mpe tika ete Yawe azala na yo elongo! »
17 David also charged all the princes of Israel, to help Solomon his son,
Mpe Davidi apesaki mitindo epai ya bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele ete basunga mwana na ye Salomo.
18 Saying: You see, that the Lord your God is with you, and hath given you rest round about, and hath delivered all your enemies into your hands, and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.
Alobaki na bango: « Boni, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali elongo na bino te? Apesaki bino bopemi na ngambo nyonso te? Pamba te akabaki na maboko na ngai bato ya mokili oyo. Mokili yango ezali na se ya bokonzi ya Yawe mpe ya bato na Ye.
19 Give therefore your hearts and your souls, to seek the Lord your God: and arise, and build a sanctuary to the Lord God, that the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the vessels consecrated to the Lord, may be brought into the house, which is built to the name of the Lord.
Sik’oyo, bobongisa mitema mpe milimo na bino mpo na koluka Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Bobanda kotonga Esika ya bule ya Yawe Nzambe mpo ete boyeisa Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe mpe biloko ya bule ya Nzambe, na Tempelo oyo ekotongama mpo na Kombo na Yawe. »
