2 Chronicles 34
1 Josias was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one and thirty 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 that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of David his father: he declined not, neither 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, when he was yet a boy, he began to seek the God of his father David: and in the twelfth year after he began to reign, he cleansed Juda and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the idols, and the graven things.
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 before him the altars of Baalim, and demolished the idols that had been set upon them: and be cut down the groves and the graven things, and broke them in pieces: and strewed the fragments upon the graves of them 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 burnt the bones of the priests on the altars of the idols, and he cleansed Juda 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 in the cities of Manasses, and of Ephraim, and of Simeon, even to Nephtali he demolished all.
Abukaki bitumbelo kati na bingumba ya Manase, ya Efrayimi, ya Simeoni kino na Nefitali mpe na bamboka na yango ya zingazinga.
7 And when he had destroyed the altars, and the groves, and had broken the idols in pieces, and had demolished all profane temples throughout all the land of Israel, he 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 Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had cleansed the land, and the temple of the Lord, he sent Saphan the son of Eselias, and Maasias the governor of the city, Joha the son of Joachaz the recorder, to repair the house of the Lord 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 Helcias the high priest: and received of him the money which had been brought into the house of the Lord, and which the Levites and porters had gathered together from Manasses, and Ephraim, and all the remnant of Israel, and from all Juda, and Benjamin, and 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 Which they delivered into the hands of them that were over the workmen in the house of the Lord, to repair the temple, and mend all that was weak.
Bapesaki mbongo yango na maboko ya batambolisi misala ya Tempelo ya Yawe. Bato yango bafutaki basali oyo bazalaki kobongisa mpe kolendisa Tempelo yango;
11 But they gave it to the artificers, and to the masons, to buy stones out of the quarries, and timber for the couplings of the building, and to rafter the houses, which the kings of Juda 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 they did all faithfully. Now the overseers of the workmen were Jahath and Abdias of the sons of Merari, Zacharias and Mosollam of the sons of Caath, who hastened the work: all Levites skillful to play on instruments.
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 But over them that carried burdens for divers uses, were scribes, and masters of the number of the Levites, and porters.
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 Now when they carried out the money that had been brought into the temple of the Lord, Helcias the priest found the book of the law of the Lord, by the hand of 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 And he said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and he delivered it to him.
Ilikia alobaki na Shafani, mokomi mikanda: — Namoni buku ya Mobeko kati na Tempelo ya Yawe! Mpe apesaki buku yango epai ya Shafani.
16 But he carried the book to the king, and told him, saying: Lo, all that thou hast committed to thy servants, is accomplished.
Shafani azwaki buku yango, amemaki yango epai ya mokonzi mpe ayebisaki ye: — Basali na yo bazali kosala makambo nyonso oyo otindaki bango.
17 They have gathered together the silver that was found in the house of the Lord: and it is given to the overseers of the artificers, and of the workmen, for divers works.
Bapesi mbongo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe epai ya batambolisi misala mpe epai ya bato oyo bazali kosala misala.
18 Moreover Helcias the priest gave me this book. And he read 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 when he had heard the words of the law, he rent his garments:
Tango mokonzi ayokaki maloba ya Mobeko, apasolaki bilamba na ye,
20 And he commanded Helcias, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Abdon the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaa the king’s servant, 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, and pray to the Lord for me, and for the remnant of Israel, and Juda, concerning all the words of this book, which is found: for the great wrath of the Lord hath fallen upon us, because our fathers have not kept the words of the Lord, to do all things that are 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 Helcias and they that were sent with him by the king, went to Olda the prophetess, the wife of Sellum the son of Thecuath, the son of Hasra keeper of the wardrobe: who dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second part: and they spoke to her the words above mentioned.
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 answered them: Thus saith the Lord 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 the Lord: Behold I will bring evils upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, and all the curses that are written in this book which they read before the king of Juda.
‹ 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 sacrificed to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath with all the works of their hands, therefore my wrath shall fall 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 as to the king of Juda that sent you to beseech the Lord, thus shall you say to him: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Because thou hast heard the words of this book,
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 And thy heart was softened. and thou hast humbled thyself in the sight of God for the things that are spoken against this place, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and reverencing my face, hast rent thy garments, and wept before me: I also have heard thee, saith the Lord.
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 For now I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be brought to thy tomb in peace: and thy eyes shall not see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and the inhabitants thereof. They therefore reported to the king all that she had said.
‹ 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 he called together all the ancients of Juda and Jerusalem.
Mokonzi Joziasi abengisaki bampaka nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi.
30 And went up to the house of the Lord, and all the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the priests and the Levites, and all the people from the least to the greatest. And the king read in their hearing, in the house of the Lord, all the words of the book.
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 standing up in his tribunal, he made a covenant before the Lord to walk after him, and keep his commandments, and testimonies, and justifications with all his heart, and with all his soul, and to do the things that were written in that book which he had read.
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 adjured all that were found in Jerusalem and Benjamin to do the same: and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of the Lord 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 Josias took away all the abominations out of all the countries of the children of Israel: and made all that were left in Israel, to serve the Lord their God. As long as he lived they departed not from the Lord 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.
