2 Kings 14
1 Amaziah, son of Joash, became king of Judah in the second year of the reign of Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
Na mobu ya mibale ya bokonzi ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
2 He was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
Amatsia azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na libwa na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yeoyadani. » Yeoyadani azalaki moto ya Yelusalemi.
3 He did what was right in the Lord's sight, but not in the same way as his forefather David had. He did everything just as his father Joash had done.
Amatsia asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe, kasi ezalaki te lokola Davidi, koko na ye. Na makambo nyonso, alandaki ndakisa ya Joasi, tata na ye.
4 But the high places were not removed. The people still were sacrificing and presenting burn offerings in those places.
Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.
5 Once he was secure on the throne he executed the officials who had murdered his father the king.
Sima na Amatsia kolendisa bokonzi na ye, abomaki bakalaka oyo babomaki tata na ye.
6 But he did not execute the murderers' children, following the Lord's command in the law of Moses that “Fathers must not be put to death for their children's sins, and children must not be put to death for their father's sins. Everyone is to die for their own sin.”
Kasi abomaki te bana mibali ya babomi ya tata na ye, pamba te, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Mobeko ya Moyize, Yawe apesaki mitindo oyo: « Bakoboma batata te mpo na bana na bango to mpe bakoboma bana te mpo na batata na bango; bakoboma moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye moko. »
7 Amaziah killed ten thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. He attacked and captured Sela and renamed it Joktheel, which is what it is called to this very day.
Ezali Amatsia nde moto alongaki bato ya Edomi, nkoto zomi na Lubwaku ya Mungwa, mpe abotolaki na bitumba engumba ya Sela; mpe abengaki yango « Yokiteyeli, » kombo oyo babengelaka yango kino lelo.
8 Amaziah sent messengers to the king of Israel, Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, telling him, “Let's fight, face to face!”
Bongo Amatsia atindaki bantoma epai ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi mpe koko ya Jewu, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo na koyebisa ye: — Yaka tobunda!
9 Jehoash, king of Israel, replied to Amaziah, king of Judah: “In Lebanon a thistle sent a message to a cedar, saying, ‘Give your daughter as a wife to my son.’ But a wild animal of Lebanon came by and trampled down the thistle.
Kasi Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, azongiselaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda: — Mokolo moko, nzete ya sende ya Libani etindaki maloba epai ya nzete ya sedele ya Libani: « Balisa mwana na yo ya mwasi epai ya mwana na ngai ya mobali. » Kasi nyama moko ya zamba elekaki mpe enyataki nzete ya sende.
10 You may indeed have defeated Edom. Now you've become arrogant. Stay home and enjoy your victory! Why provoke trouble that will bring you down, and Judah with you?”
Solo, olongi Edomi, mpe motema na yo ezali komikumisa. Sepela na yo, kasi vanda na ndako na yo. Mpo na nini koluka ete pasi makasi ekweyela yo elongo na Yuda?
11 But Amaziah refused to listen, so Jehoash, king of Israel, came to attack him. He and Amaziah, king of Judah, met face to face at Beth Shemesh in Judah.
Kasi Amatsia ayokaki ye te. Boye, Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akendeki kobundisa Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda. Ye mpe Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, babundaki na Beti-Shemeshi kati na mokili ya Yuda.
12 The army of Judah was defeated by Israel, and ran away home.
Isalaele alongaki Yuda, mpe bato ya Yuda bakimaki, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
13 Jehoash, king of Israel, captured Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Joash, son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh. Then Jehoash attacked Jerusalem and knocked down the city wall from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, about four hundred cubits in length.
Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akangaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi mpe koko ya Akazia, na Beti-Shemeshi. Boye Joasi akendeki na Yelusalemi mpe abukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, na molayi ya bametele pene nkama moko na tuku mwambe, longwa na ekuke ya Efrayimi kino na ekuke ya suka.
14 He removed all the gold and silver, and all the items found in the Lord's Temple and in the treasuries of the royal palace, and also some hostages. Then he went back to Samaria.
Akamataki wolo nyonso, palata nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi; akangaki bato na bowumbu mpe azongaki na Samari.
15 The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements and his war with Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Joasi, misala na ye mpe elonga na ye tango abundisaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
16 Jehoash died and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. His son Jeroboam succeeded him as king.
Joasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Samari esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele. Mpe Jeroboami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
17 Amaziah, son of Joash, king of Judah, lived for fifteen more years after the death of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, awumelaki lisusu na bomoi mibu zomi na mitano sima na kufa ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
18 The rest of the events that happened in Amaziah's reign are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Amatsia mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
19 A conspiracy against Amaziah took place in Jerusalem, and he ran away to Lachish. But men were sent after him and they murdered him there.
Basalelaki ye likita, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kotelemela ye, mpe akimaki na Lakishi. Kasi batindaki bato mpo ete balanda ye kino na Lakishi, mpe babomaki ye kuna.
20 They brought him back on horses and buried him in Jerusalem with his forefathers in the City of David.
Bamemaki nzoto na ye na likolo ya mpunda mpe bakundaki ye na Yelusalemi, esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi.
21 Then all the people of Judah made Amaziah's son Azariah king to replace his father. Azariah was sixteen years old.
Bato nyonso ya Yuda bakamataki Azaria oyo azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi na esika ya tata na ye, Amatsia.
22 Azariah recaptured Elath for Judah and rebuilt it after his father's death.
Ezalaki ye nde moto atongaki lisusu engumba ya Eyilati mpe azongisaki yango na Yuda sima na kufa ya tata na ye, mokonzi Amatsia.
23 Jeroboam, son of Jehoash, became king of Israel in the fifteenth year of the reign of Amaziah, son of Joash, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for forty-one years.
Tango Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akokisaki mibu zomi na mitano na bokonzi, Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari mpe akonzaki mibu tuku minei na moko.
24 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit.
Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe mpe atikaki te masumu nyonso ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.
25 He restored the border of Israel to where it had been, from Lebo-hamath as far as the Sea of the Arabah, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had said through his servant Jonah, son of Amittai, the prophet, who came from Gath-hepher.
Ezalaki ye nde moto abotolaki lisusu bamboka ya Isalaele longwa na Lebo-Amati kino na ebale monene ya Araba, kolanda Liloba na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosali na Ye, mosakoli Yona, mwana mobali ya Amitayi, moto ya Gati-Eferi.
26 The Lord had seen how badly the Israelites were suffering, both slave and free. No one was there to help Israel.
Yawe amonaki ndenge nini bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki konyokwama. Ezala bawumbu to bansomi, moto moko te akokaki kosunga bango.
27 However, since the Lord had said that he would not wipe out Israel, he saved them through Jeroboam, son of Jehoash.
Lokola Yawe alobaki te ete akolimwisa kombo ya Isalaele na se ya moyi, abikisaki bango na nzela ya loboko ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi.
28 The rest of what happened in Jeroboam's reign, all he did, his great achievements and the battles he fought, and how he recovered for Israel both Damascus and Hamath, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jeroboami, misala na ye nyonso mpe elonga na ye na bitumba, ezala ndenge azongisaki na se ya bokonzi ya Isalaele Damasi mpe Amati, bingumba mibale oyo ezalaki ya Yuda, nyonso wana ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
29 Jeroboam died and was buried with the kings of Israel. His son Zechariah succeeded him as king.
Jeroboami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele; mpe Zakari, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
