< 2 Kings 17 >

1 In the twelfth year of Achaz king of Juda, Osee the son of Ela reigned in Samaria over Israel nine years.
Tango Akazi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu zomi na mibale na bokonzi, Oze, mwana mobali ya Ela, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari. Akonzaki mibu libwa.
2 And he did evil before the Lord: but not as the kings of Israel that had been before him.
Oze asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, kasi ndenge moko te na bakonzi ya Isalaele, oyo bazalaki liboso na ye.
3 Against him came up Salmanasar king of the Assyrians, and Osee became his servant, and paid him tribute.
Salimanasari, mokonzi ya Asiri, ayaki kobundisa Oze. Mpe Oze akomaki mowumbu mpe akomaki kofuta mpako epai ya Salimanasari.
4 And when the king of the Assyrians found that Osee endeavouring to rebel had sent messengers to Sua the king of Egypt, that he might not pay tribute to the king of the Assyrians, as he had done every year, he besieged him, bound him, and cast him into prison,
Kasi mokonzi ya Asiri asosolaki ete Oze asaleli ye likita, pamba te Oze atindaki bantoma epai ya So, mokonzi ya Ejipito, mpe atikaki kofuta mpako epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri ndenge azalaki kosala mobu na mobu. Boye Salimanasari akangaki Oze mpe atiaki ye na boloko.
5 And he went through all the land: and going up to Samaria, he besieged it three years.
Mokonzi ya Asiri akotaki na makasi na mokili mobimba, abundisaki Samari mpe azingelaki yango mibu misato.
6 And in the ninth year of Osee, the king of the Assyrians took Samaria, and carried Israel away to Assyria: and he placed them in Hala and Habor by the river of Gozan, in the cities of the Medes.
Tango Oze akokisaki mibu libwa na bokonzi, mokonzi ya Asiri abotolaki Samari mpe amemaki bana ya Isalaele na bowumbu na Asiri. Atiaki bango na Ala mpe na bapembeni ya ebale ya Abori, na etuka ya Gozani mpe na bingumba ya Medi.
7 For so it was that the children of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and they worshipped strange gods.
Makambo oyo esalemaki mpo ete bato ya Isalaele basalaki masumu liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bango, oyo abimisaki bango wuta na bokonzi ya Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito; bagumbamelaki banzambe mosusu.
8 And they walked according to the way of the nations which the Lord had destroyed in the sight of the children of Israel and of the kings of Israel: because they had done in like manner.
Balandaki bizaleli ya bikolo oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso na bango mpe makambo oyo bakonzi ya Isalaele bakotisaki.
9 And the children of Israel offended the Lord their God with things that were not right: and built them high places in all their cities from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
Bato ya Isalaele basalaki na nkuku makambo ya nkele na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bango. Batongaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba kati na bingumba na bango nyonso, kobanda na likolo ya bamir ya lopango kino na bingumba batonga makasi.
10 And they made them statues and groves on every high hill, and under every shady tree:
Batelemisaki mabanga ya bule mpe makonzi ya nzambe mwasi Ashera na likolo ya bangomba nyonso mpe na se ya banzete nyonso ya mibesu.
11 And they burnt incense there upon altars after the manner of the nations which the Lord had removed from their face: and they did wicked things, provoking the Lord.
Batumbaki ansa na bisambelo nyonso ya likolo ya bangomba, ndenge bikolo oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso na bango ezalaki kosala. Basalaki makambo mabe oyo etumbolaki kanda ya Yawe.
12 And they worshipped abominations, concerning which the Lord had commanded them that they should not do this thing.
Bagumbamelaki banzambe ya bikeko oyo na tina na yango Yawe alobaki: « Bokosala bongo te. »
13 And the Lord testified to them in Israel and in Juda by the hand of all the prophets and seers, saying: Return from your wicked ways, and keep my precepts, and ceremonies, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers: and as I have sent to you in the hand of my servants the prophets.
Yawe akebisaki Isalaele mpe Yuda na nzela ya basali na Ye nyonso, basakoli mpe bamoni makambo, na maloba oyo: « Botika banzela na bino ya mabe, bobatela mibeko mpe bikateli na Ngai kolanda mibeko nyonso oyo napesaki bino mpe bakoko na bino na nzela ya basali na Ngai, basakoli. »
14 And they hearkened not, but hardened their necks like to the neck of their fathers, who would not obey the Lord their God.
Kasi bayokaki te; batiaki moto makasi lokola bakoko na bango, oyo baboyaki kondimela Yawe, Nzambe na bango.
15 And they rejected his ordinances and the covenant that he made with their fathers, and the testimonies which he testified against them: and they followed vanities, and acted vainly: and they followed the nations that were round about them, concerning which the Lord had commanded them that they should not do as they did.
Babwakaki bikateli na Ye, boyokani oyo asalaki elongo na bakoko na bango mpe makebisi oyo apesaki bango. Balandaki bikolo oyo ezalaki zingazinga na bango. Yawe apesaki bango mitindo ete basala te lokola bango, kasi bango basalaki kaka makambo oyo Yawe apekisaki bango kosala.
16 And they forsook all the precepts of the Lord their God: and made to themselves two molten calves, and groves, and adored all the host of heaven: and they served Baal.
Batikaki mitindo nyonso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe bamisalelaki banzambe ya bikeko ya bana ngombe mibale basala na bibende oyo banyangwisa na moto, mpe likonzi ya nzambe mwasi Ashera. Bango nyonso bagumbamelaki mampinga nyonso ya likolo, mpe basambelaki nzambe Bala.
17 And consecrated their sons, and their daughters through fire: and they gave themselves to divinations, and soothsayings: and they delivered themselves up to do evil before the Lord, to provoke him.
Batumbaki na moto lokola mbeka bana na bango ya mibali mpe bana na bango ya basi. Basalelaki soloka mpe kindoki, mpe bamikabaki mpo na kosala makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Boye batumbolaki kanda ya Yawe.
18 And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them from his sight, and there remained only the tribe of Juda.
Yawe asilikelaki makasi bana ya Isalaele mpe abenganaki bango mosika na Ye. Kaka libota ya Yuda nde batikalaki.
19 But neither did Juda itself keep the commandments of the Lord their God: but they walked in the errors of Israel, which they had wrought.
Nzokande, libota yango mpe ya Yuda babatelaki te mitindo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bango, balandaki bizaleli oyo Isalaele akotisaki.
20 And the Lord cast off all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, till he cast them away from his face:
Boye, Yawe abwakaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele, ayokisaki bango pasi, akabaki bango na maboko ya bato ya mobulu, mpe abenganaki bango mosika na Ye.
21 Even from that time, when Israel was rent from the house of David, and made Jeroboam son of Nabat their king: for Jeroboam separated Israel from the Lord, and made them commit a great sin.
Tango Yawe alongolaki Isalaele na se ya bokonzi ya Davidi, bana ya Isalaele bakomisaki Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, mokonzi na bango. Jeroboami atindikaki Isalaele ete balanda Yawe te, mpe amemisaki bango lisumu ya monene.
22 And the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam, which he had done: and they departed not from them,
Bato ya Isalaele bakangamaki na masumu nyonso ya Jeroboami mpe batikaki yango te
23 Till the Lord removed Israel from his face, as he had spoken in the hand of all his servants the prophets: and Israel was carried away out of their land to Assyria, unto this day.
kino tango Yawe abenganaki bango mosika na Ye, ndenge ayebisaki bango na nzela ya basali na Ye nyonso, basakoli. Boye, bamemaki bana ya Isalaele na bowumbu, mosika ya mokili na bango, na Asiri kino lelo.
24 And the king of the Assyrians brought people from Babylon, and from Cutha, and from Avah, and from Emath, and from Sepharvaim: and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
Mokonzi ya Asiri amemaki bato wuta na bingumba ya Babiloni, ya Kuti, ya Ava, ya Amati mpe ya Sefarivayimi; mpe atiaki bango na Samari, na esika ya bana ya Isalaele. Bato yango bazwaki Samari mpe bavandaki kati na bingumba na yango.
25 And when they began to dwell there, they feared not the Lord: and the Lord sent lions among them, which killed them.
Liboso, tango bazalaki kovanda kuna, bato yango bazalaki kogumbamela Yawe te. Boye Yawe atindaki nkosi kati na bango, mpe ebomaki ndambo ya bato kati na bango.
26 And it was told the king of the Assyrians, and it was said: The nations which thou hast removed, and made to dwell in the cities of Samaria, know not the ordinances of the God of the land: and the Lord hath sent lions among them: and behold they kill them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
Bayebisaki mokonzi ya Asiri: — Bikolo oyo omemaki na bowumbu mpe otiaki kati na bingumba ya Samari bayebi te makambo oyo Nzambe ya mokili wana alingaka. Boye Nzambe atindi kati na bango nkosi oyo ezali koboma bango, pamba te bato yango bayebi te makambo oyo Nzambe yango alingaka.
27 And the king of the Assyrians commanded, saying: Carry thither one of the priests whom you brought from thence captive, and let him go, and dwell with them: and let him teach them the ordinances of the God of the land.
Boye mokonzi ya Asiri apesaki mitindo oyo: — Botinda kuna moko kati na Banganga-Nzambe oyo bomemaki na bowumbu wuta na Samari mpo ete avanda kuna mpe alakisa bato makambo oyo Nzambe ya mokili wana alingaka.
28 So one of the priests who had been carried away captive from Samaria, came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should worship the Lord.
Boye moko kati na Banganga-Nzambe oyo bamemaki na bowumbu wuta na Samari ayaki kovanda na Beteli mpe alakisaki bango kogumbamela Yawe.
29 And every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the temples of the high places, which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities where they dwelt.
Kasi ekolo na ekolo esalaki banzambe na yango kati na bingumba nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda, mpe batiaki banzambe yango kati na bisika ya bule ya bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba oyo bato ya Samari batongaki.
30 For the men of Babylon made Sochothbenoth: and the Cuthites made Nergel: and the men of Emath made Asima.
Bato oyo bawutaki na Babiloni basalaki ekeko ya nzambe Sukoti-Benoti; ba-oyo bawutaki na Kuti basalaki ekeko ya nzambe Nerigali; ba-oyo bawutaki na Amati basalaki ekeko ya nzambe Ashima;
31 And the Hevites made Nebahaz and Tharthac. And they that were of Sepharvaim burnt their children in fire, to Adramelech and Anamelech the gods of Sepharvaim.
ba-oyo bawutaki na Ava basalaki bikeko ya nzambe Nibikazi mpe nzambe Taritaki; ba-oyo bawutaki na Sefarivayimi bazalaki kokoba kotumba bana na bango na moto lokola mbeka epai ya Adrameleki mpe Anameleki, banzambe ya bato ya Sefarivayimi.
32 And nevertheless they worshipped the Lord. And they made to themselves, of the lowest of the people, priests of the high places, and they placed them in the temples of the high places.
Bato ya bikolo yango bazalaki na bango kotosa Yawe, kasi baponaki lisusu kati na bango bato mpo na kosala mosala ya bonganga-nzambe kati na bisika ya bule ya bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba.
33 And when they worshipped the Lord, they served also their own gods according to the custom of the nations out of which they were brought to Samaria:
Atako bazalaki kotosa Yawe, kasi bazalaki mpe kosalela banzambe na bango kolanda bizaleli ya bikolo epai wapi bawutaki.
34 Unto this day they followed the old manner: they fear not the Lord, neither do they keep his ceremonies, and judgments, and law, and the commandment, which the Lord commanded the children of Jacob, whom he surnamed Israel:
Kino lelo, bakangami kaka na bizaleli na bango ya kala; bagumbamelaka penza Yawe te mpe batosaka te bikateli mpe malako, mibeko mpe mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki epai ya bakitani ya Jakobi oyo apesaki kombo « Isalaele. »
35 With whom he made a covenant, and charged them, saying: You shall not fear strange gods, nor shall you adore them, nor worship them, nor sacrifice to them.
Tango Yawe asalaki boyokani elongo na bana ya Isalaele, alobaki na bango: « Bokogumbamela banzambe mosusu te, bokofukamela yango te, bokosalela yango te mpe bokobonzela yango bambeka te;
36 But the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power, and a stretched out arm, him shall you fear, and him shall you adore, and to him shall you sacrifice.
kaka Yawe oyo abimisaki bino wuta na Ejipito, na nguya mpe na loboko esembolama, nde bosengeli kogumbamela. Liboso na Ye kaka nde bosengeli kogumbama mpe kobonza bambeka.
37 And the ceremonies, and judgments, and law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do them always: and you shall not fear strange gods.
Bosengeli tango nyonso kozala na bokebi mpo na kobatela bikateli mpe malako, mibeko mpe mitindo oyo Yawe akomaki mpo na bino. Bogumbamela banzambe mosusu te,
38 And the covenant that he made with you, you shall not forget: neither shall ye worship strange gods,
bobosana te boyokani oyo nasalaki elongo na bino, mpe bogumbamela banzambe mosusu te.
39 But fear the Lord your God, and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.
Kaka Yawe, Nzambe na bino, nde bosengeli kogumbamela, pamba te Ye nde akangolaki bino na maboko ya banguna na bino nyonso. »
40 But they did not hearken, but did according to their old custom.
Kasi bato ya bikolo wana bayokaki te mpe batingamaki kaka na bizaleli na bango ya kala.
41 So these nations feared the Lord, but nevertheless served also their idols: their children also and grandchildren, as their fathers did, so do they unto this day.
Atako bato ya bikolo yango bazalaki kotosa Yawe, kasi bazalaki mpe kosalela banzambe na bango ya bikeko. Kino lelo, bana na bango mpe bakitani na bango bazali kokoba kosala makambo oyo bakoko na bango bazalaki kosala.
