< Kings IV 16 >

1 In the seventeenth year of Phakee son of Romelias began Achaz the son of Joatham king of Juda to reign.
Na mobu ya zomi na sambo ya bokonzi ya Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, Akazi, mwana mobali ya Yotami, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
2 Twenty years old was Achaz when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not that which was right in the eyes of the Lord his God faithfully, as David his father [had done].
Akazi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na motoba na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye; nzokande, Davidi, koko na ye, asalaki makambo ya sembo.
3 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yes, he made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
Alandaki banzela oyo bakonzi ya Isalaele batambolaki na yango, atumbaki ata mwana na ye ya mobali na moto lokola mbeka, kolanda misala ya nkele ya bikolo oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso ya bana ya Isalaele.
4 And he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places, and upon the hills, and under every shady tree.
Abonzaki bambeka mpe atumbaki mbeka ya malasi, na bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, na bangomba mike mpe na se ya banzete ya mibesu.
5 Then went up Raasson king of Syria and Phakee son of Romelias king of Israel against Jerusalem to war, and besieged Achaz, but could not prevail [against him].
Bongo Retsini, mokonzi ya Siri, mpe Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, mokonzi ya Isalaele, bamataki mpo na kobundisa Yelusalemi mpe bazingelaki Akazi, kasi bakokaki kolonga ye te.
6 At that time Raasson king of Syria recovered Aelath to Syria, and drove out the Jews from Aelath, and the Idumeans came to Aelath, and lived there until this day.
Na tango wana, Retsini, mokonzi ya Siri, azongisaki Eyilati na se ya bokonzi ya Siri. Abenganaki bato ya Yuda oyo bazalaki na Efrate, mpe bato ya Edomi bayaki kovanda kuna kino lelo.
7 And Achaz sent messengers to Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians, saying, I am your servant and your son: come up, deliver me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.
Akazi atindaki bantoma epai ya Tigilati-Pilezeri, mokonzi ya Asiri, mpo na koloba na ye: « Nazali mosali na yo mpe mwana na yo; yaka kokangola ngai na maboko ya mokonzi ya Siri mpe mokonzi ya Isalaele oyo bayei kobundisa ngai. »
8 And Achaz took the silver and the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's house, and sent gifts to the king.
Akazi azwaki palata mpe wolo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi; bongo atindaki yango lokola kado epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri.
9 And the king of the Assyrians listened to him: and the king of the Assyrians went up to Damascus and took it, and removed the inhabitants, and killed king Raasson.
Mokonzi ya Asiri ayokaki ye, akendeki kobundisa Damasi mpe abotolaki yango. Amemaki bato ya Damasi na bowumbu na Kiri mpe abomaki Retsini.
10 And king Achaz went to Damascus to meet Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians at Damascus; and he saw an altar at Damascus. And king Achaz sent to Urias the priest the pattern of the altar, and its proportions, and all its workmanship.
Bongo mokonzi Akazi akendeki na Damasi mpo na kokutana na Tigilati-Pilezeri, mokonzi ya Asiri; amonaki etumbelo oyo ezalaki na Damasi mpe atindaki epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Uri elilingi na yango ndenge batongaki yango.
11 And Urias the priest built the altar, according to all [the directions] which king Achaz sent from Damascus.
Boye Nganga-Nzambe Uri atongaki etumbelo kolanda elilingi oyo mokonzi Akazi atindaki wuta na Damasi, mpe asilisaki kotonga yango liboso ete mokonzi Akazi azonga wuta na Damasi.
12 And the king saw the altar, and went up to it,
Tango mokonzi Akazi azongaki wuta na Damasi, amonaki etumbelo, apusanaki pene na yango mpe abonzaki bambeka na likolo na yango.
13 and offered his whole burnt offering, and his meat-offering, and his drink-offering, and poured out the blood of his peace-offerings on the brazen altar that was before the Lord.
Atumbaki mbeka na ye mpe likabo ya gato, asopaki likabo ya masanga mpe abwakaki makila ya bambeka ya boyokani na likolo ya etumbelo.
14 And he brought forward [the one] before the house of the Lord from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and he set it openly by the side of the altar northwards.
Kasi mpo na oyo etali etumbelo ya bronze oyo ezalaki liboso ya Yawe, alongolaki yango na esika na yango liboso ya Ndako ya Nzambe, kati na etumbelo ya sika mpe Tempelo ya Yawe, mpe atiaki yango pembeni ya etumbelo ya sika, na ngambo ya nor.
15 And king Achaz charged Urias the priest, saying, Offer upon the great altar the whole burnt offering in the morning and the meat-offering in the evening, and the whole burnt offering of the king, and his meat-offering, and the whole burnt offering of all the people, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offering; and you shall pour all the blood of the whole burnt offering, and all the blood of [any other] sacrifice upon it: and the brazen altar shall be for me in the morning.
Mokonzi Akazi apesaki mitindo epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Uri: « Na likolo ya etumbelo monene ya sika, okobanda kobonza mbeka ya kotumba na tongo mpe likabo ya gato na pokwa, mbeka ya kotumba ya mokonzi elongo na likabo na yango ya gato, mpe mbeka ya kotumba ya bato nyonso ya mokili elongo na likabo na bango ya masanga. Okobwaka na etumbelo makila ya bambeka nyonso ya kotumba mpe ya bambeka mosusu. Kasi mpo na oyo etali etumbelo ya bronze, nakokanisa mosala nini nakosala na yango. »
16 And Urias the priest did according to all that king Achaz commanded him.
Nganga-Nzambe Uri asalaki ndenge kaka mokonzi Akazi atindaki.
17 And king Achaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them, and took down the sea from the brazen oxen that were under it, and set it upon a base of stone.
Mokonzi Akazi alongolaki mabaya oyo esimbaka bamesa, mpe alongolaki basani ya minene na likolo na yango; akitisaki nzungu ya monene ya bronze oyo ezalaki na likolo ya bikeko ya bangombe mpe atiaki yango na likolo ya mabanga babongisa malamu.
18 And he made a base for the throne in the house of the Lord, and he turned the king's entrance without in the house of the Lord because of the king of the Assyrians.
Abongolaki shambre ya Saba ya kokotela oyo batongaki na kati ya Ndako ya Nzambe; abongolaki lisusu ekuke ya mokonzi oyo batongaki na libanda ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na kosepelisa mokonzi ya Asiri.
19 And the rest of the acts of Achaz, even all that he did, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali mokonzi Akazi mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
20 And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Ezekias his son reigned in his stead.
Akazi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi. Ezekiasi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
