< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
Tango feti nyonso esilaki, bato nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kuna bakendeki na bingumba ya Yuda, babukaki makonzi ya bule, bakweyisaki bikeko ya nzambe mwasi Ashera mpe bapanzaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe bitumbelo kati na Yuda nyonso, kati na Benjame, kati na Efrayimi mpe kati na Manase. Sima na kobebisa biloko wana nyonso, bato ya Isalaele bazongaki kati na bingumba na bango mpe bandako na bango.
2 And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priest and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of the LORD.
Ezekiasi atiaki Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi na masanga mpe apesaki na moko na moko mosala kati na lisanga na ye. Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi bapesamelaki mosala ya bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani, mosala ya kozongisa matondi mpe ya koyemba banzembo mpo na kokumisa mpe kosanzola Yawe, na bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
3 He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt-offerings, to wit, for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, and the burnt-offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed seasons, as it is written in the Law of the LORD.
Mokonzi azwaki ndambo ya bozwi na ye mpe apesaki mpo na bambeka ya kotumba: bambeka ya kotumba ya tongo mpe ya pokwa, ya mikolo ya Saba, ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe ya bafeti oyo ekatama, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na mibeko ya Yawe.
4 Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of the LORD.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi ete bapesa ndambo oyo esengeli kopesama epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi mpo ete bamipesa na misala oyo mibeko ya Yawe ezali kotinda bango.
5 And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first-fruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
Tango kaka bapanzaki sango ya mitindo oyo, bato ya Isalaele bapesaki na esengo bambuma na bango ya liboso ya ble, ya vino ya sika, ya mafuta, ya mafuta ya nzoyi mpe ya biloko nyonso oyo ebimaka na bilanga. Bamemaki lisusu biloko ebele lokola eteni ya zomi ya nyonso.
6 And the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of hallowed things which were hallowed unto the LORD their God, and laid them by heaps.
Bato ya Isalaele elongo na bato ya Yuda oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na bingumba ya Yuda bamemaki eteni na bango ya zomi ya bangombe, ya bameme, ya bantaba mpe ya makabo ya bule oyo ebulisamaki mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe batiaki yango na mipiku.
7 In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
Babandaki kosala mipiku yango na sanza ya misato mpe basilisaki na sanza ya sambo.
8 And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD, and His people Israel.
Tango Ezekiasi elongo na bakalaka na ye bayaki komona mipiku yango, bakumisaki Yawe mpe bapambolaki Isalaele, bato na Ye.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
Ezekiasi atunaki Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi na tina na mipiku yango.
10 And Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said: 'Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty; for the LORD hath blessed His people; and that which is left is this great store.'
Azaria, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, moto ya libota ya Tsadoki, azongisaki: — Wuta tango bato babandaki komema makabo na bango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, toliaki, totondaki mpe totiki ebele, pamba te Yawe apambolaki bato na Ye. Mipiku ya biloko oyo ozali komona awa ezali nde oyo etikali.
11 Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the LORD; and they prepared them.
Ezekiasi apesaki mitindo ete babongisa bisika mpo na kobomba biloko yango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe; mpe esalemaki bongo.
12 And they brought in the offerings and the tithes and the hallowed things faithfully; and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
Bakomaki kotia kuna na boyengebene makabo ya bato, biteni ya zomi mpe makabo mosusu ya bule. Molevi Konania azalaki na mokumba ya kobatela biloko yango elongo na Shimei, ndeko na ye ya mobali, lokola molandi na ye.
13 And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.
Kolandisama na mokano ya mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe ya Azaria, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe ya Tempelo ya Nzambe, Yeyeli, Azazia, Naati, Asaeli, Yerimoti, Yozabadi, Elieli, Yisimakia, Maati mpe Benaya bazalaki bakengeli ya misala na bokambami ya Konania mpe Shimei, ndeko na ye ya mobali.
14 And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east gate, was over the freewill-offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of the LORD, and the most holy things.
Molevi Kore, mwana mobali ya Yimina, oyo azalaki mokengeli ekuke ya ngambo ya este azalaki na mokumba ya koyamba makabo oyo bato bazalaki kopesa epai ya Nzambe, wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango; azalaki mpe na mokumba ya kokabola makabo oyo bazalaki kokongola mpo na Yawe mpe makabo ya bule.
15 And under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small;
Kati na bingumba ya Banganga-Nzambe, Kore asungamaki na Edeni, Minyamini, Jozue, Shemaya, Amaria mpe Shekania, mpo na kokabola biloko na boyengebene epai ya bandeko na bango Banganga-Nzambe kolanda masanga na bango; bazalaki kosala bokeseni te kati na bato minene mpe bato mike.
16 beside them that were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even every one that entered into the house of the LORD, for his daily portion, for their service in their charges according to their courses;
Bazalaki kopesa kaka te na mibali oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki, kobanda na mibu misato ya mbotama mpe komata, kasi bazalaki mpe kopesa na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na kosala misala na bango ya mokolo na mokolo kolanda mikumba mpe masanga na bango.
17 and them that were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their courses;
Bapesaki na Banganga-Nzambe oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki kolanda mabota na bango ya botata mpe na Balevi oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda mibu tuku mibale mpe komata, kolanda mikumba mpe masanga na bango;
18 even to give to them that were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they administered the sacred gifts;
bapesaki na bana mike nyonso, na basi, na bana mibali mpe na bana basi ya lisanga mobimba, ba-oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki kati na buku ya milongo ya mbotama, pamba te bazalaki kokokisa na boyengebene mibeko ya libulisi mpo na kozala bule.
19 also for the sons of Aaron the priests, that were in the fields of the open land about their cities, in every city, there were men that were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
Lokola ndenge ezalaki mpo na Banganga-Nzambe, bakitani ya Aron, oyo bazalaki kovanda na bamboka ya zingazinga ya bingumba na bango, bato baponamaki na bakombo mpo na kokabola biloko epai ya bato nyonso kati na Banganga-Nzambe mpe epai ya Balevi nyonso oyo bakomamaki.
20 And thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah; and he wrought that which was good and right and faithful before the LORD his God.
Ezali boye nde Ezekiasi asalaki kati na mokili na ye mobimba ya Yuda. Asalaki makambo ya malamu, ya sembo mpe ya solo na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
21 And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
Kati na nyonso oyo Ezekiasi asalaki, ezala mpo na mosala ya Ndako ya Nzambe to mpo na botosi mibeko mpe mitindo, azalaki koluka Nzambe na ye mpe kosala na motema na ye mobimba; mpe azalaki kolonga na makambo nyonso oyo azalaki kosala.
