2 Kings 20
1 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.'
Na tango wana, Ezekiasi abelaki bokono moko ya makasi pene akufa. Mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, akendeki epai na ye mpe alobaki: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Bongisa makambo ya ndako na yo, pamba te okokufa, okobika te. »
2 Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying:
Ezekiasi abalolaki elongi na ye na mir mpe abondelaki Yawe:
3 'Remember now, O LORD, I beseech Thee, how I have walked before Thee in truth and with a whole heart, and have done that which is good in Thy sight.' And Hezekiah wept sore.
— Oh Yawe, kanisa ndenge nini natambolaki liboso na Yo na boyengebene, ndenge nini namipesaki epai na Yo na motema na ngai mobimba, mpe ndenge nini nasalaki makambo ya malamu na miso na Yo. Mpe Ezekiasi alelaki mingi.
4 And it came to pass, before Isaiah was gone out of the inner court of the city, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying:
Liboso ete Ezayi akoma na lopango ya monene, Yawe alobaki na ye:
5 'Return, and say to Hezekiah the prince of My people: Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears; behold, I will heal thee; on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.
— Zonga epai ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya bato na Ngai, mpe loba na ye: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya tata na yo, Davidi, alobi: ‹ Nayoki libondeli na yo mpe namoni mpinzoli na yo. Tala, nakobikisa yo; mpe sima na lobi, okomata lisusu na Tempelo ya Yawe.
6 And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for Mine own sake, and for My servant David's sake.'
Nakobakisa mibu zomi na mitano na mikolo ya bomoi na yo. Nakokangola yo elongo na engumba oyo, wuta na maboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri, mpe nakobatela yango mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai mpe mpo na Davidi, mosali na Ngai. › »
7 And Isaiah said: 'Take a cake of figs.' And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
Ezayi alobaki: — Bozwa liboke ya figi. Bazwaki yango, batiaki yango na pota oyo ezalaki kokawuka te, mpe mokonzi abikaki.
8 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah: 'What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up unto the house of the LORD the third day?'
Ezekiasi atunaki Ezayi: — Elembo nini ekolakisa ngai ete Yawe akobikisa ngai, mpe ete nakokende na Tempelo ya Yawe sima na lobi?
9 And Isaiah said: 'This shall be the sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that He hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?
Ezayi azongisaki: — Tala elembo oyo Yawe apesi yo mpo na kotalisa ete akokokisa makambo oyo alaki yo: Olingi ete elilingi ekende liboso, na matambe zomi to ezonga sima na matambe zomi?
10 And Hezekiah answered: 'It is a light thing for the shadow to decline ten degrees; nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.'
Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Ezali pasi te ete elilingi ekende liboso, na matambe zomi; zongisa yango nde na sima, na matambe zomi.
11 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD; and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.
Bongo mosakoli Ezayi abelelaki Yawe, mpe Yawe azongisaki elilingi sima, na matambe zomi, kolanda ematelo ya Akazi.
12 At that time Berodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present unto Hezekiah; for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
Na tango wana, Merodaki-Baladani, mwana mobali ya Baladani, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atindaki mokanda mpe kado epai ya Ezekiasi, pamba te ayokaki sango ete Ezekiasi abelaki.
13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and showed them all his treasure-house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures; there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.
Ezekiasi ayambaki bantoma na esengo mpe alakisaki bibombelo biloko na ye ya motuya lokola palata mpe wolo, biloko ya mike-mike ya solo kitoko, mafuta ya kitoko, bibundeli na ye nyonso, mpe bomengo na ye nyonso. Ezalaki na eloko moko te, ezala ya ndako na ye to ya mokili na ye mobimba, oyo azangaki kolakisa bango.
14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him: 'What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee?' And Hezekiah said: 'They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.'
Bongo mosakoli Ezayi akendeki epai ya mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe atunaki ye: — Bato wana balobi nini mpe bawuti wapi? Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Bawuti mosika, na mokili ya Babiloni.
15 And he said: 'What have they seen in thy house?' And Hezekiah answered: 'All that is in my house have they seen; there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.'
Ezayi atunaki: — Bamoni eloko nini kati na ndako na yo ya bokonzi? Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Bamoni biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na ndako na ngai; ezali na eloko moko te, kati na bibombelo na ngai, oyo nazangi kolakisa bango.
16 And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah: 'Hear the word of the LORD.
Ezayi alobaki na Ezekiasi: — Yoka liloba oyo Yawe alobi:
17 Behold, the days come, that all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.
« Solo, na mikolo ekoya, nyonso oyo ezali kati na ndako na yo, mpe nyonso oyo batata na yo babomba kino na mokolo ya lelo, bakomema yango na Babiloni, eloko moko te ekotikala, elobi Yawe.
18 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be officers in the palace of the king of Babylon.'
Mingi kati na bakitani na yo, kati na ba-oyo babimi penza na mokongo na yo, bakomema bango mpe bakoboma bango mikongo mpo ete bakoma kosala kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Babiloni. »
19 Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah: 'Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken.' He said moreover: 'Is it not so, if peace and truth shall be in my days?'
Ezekiasi azongiselaki Ezayi: — Liloba na Yawe, oyo osili koloba ezali malamu. Pamba te azalaki komilobela: « Boni, kimia mpe bobatelami ekozala penza na mikolo ya bomoi na ngai? »
20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali Ezekiasi, misala na ye nyonso ya nguya mpe ndenge asalaki liziba mpe nzela ya se ya mabele oyo amemaki mayi kino na engumba, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
21 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
Ezekiasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye. Manase, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
