< 2 Kings 1 >

1 Then did Moab rebel against Israel after the death of Achab.
Sima na kufa ya mokonzi Akabi, bato ya Moabi batombokelaki Isalaele.
2 And Achazyah fell down through the lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria, and became sick; and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron whether I shall recover from this sickness.
Mokonzi Akazia akweyaki na Samari wuta na lininisa ya shambre na ye ya likolo mpe azokaki pota moko ya makasi. Atindaki bantoma na ye mpe alobaki na bango: — Bokende kotuna epai ya Bala-Zebubi, nzambe ya Ekroni, mpo na koyeba soki nakobika solo na likama oyo.
3 But an angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron?
Kasi anjelu ya Yawe alobaki na Eliya, moto ya mboka Tishibe: — Kende kokutana na bantoma ya mokonzi ya Samari mpe tuna bango: « Boni, Nzambe azali te kati na Isalaele mpo ete bokende kotuna epai ya Bala-Zebubi, nzambe ya Ekroni?
4 Now therefore, thus hath said the Lord, From the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for thou shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.
Mpo na yango, tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Okokita te na mbeto oyo olali, pamba te, solo, okokufa. › » Boye Eliya akendeki.
5 And the messengers returned unto him, and he said unto them, Why is this that ye are already returned?
Tango bantoma bazongaki epai ya mokonzi, atunaki bango: — Mpo na nini bozongi?
6 And they said unto him, There came up a man to meet us, and he said unto us, Go, return unto the king that hath sent you, and speak unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Is it because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron? therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for thou shalt surely die.
Bazongisaki: — Moto moko ayaki kokutana na biso mpe alobaki na biso: « Bozonga epai ya mokonzi oyo atindi bino mpe boloba na ye: Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Boni, Nzambe azali lisusu te kati na Isalaele; yango wana ozali kotinda bato kokende kotuna epai ya Bala-Zebubi, nzambe ya Ekroni? › Mpo na yango, okokita te na mbeto oyo olali; okokufa solo. »
7 And he spoke unto them, What is the manner of the man who came up to meet you, and spoke unto you these words?
Mokonzi atunaki bango: — Moto oyo ayaki kokutana na bino mpe ayebisaki bino makambo oyo azalaki ndenge nini?
8 And they said unto him, He is a hairy man, with a girdle of leather girded about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
Bazongisaki: — Azalaki mobali moko alata bilamba ya poso ya nyama na loketo na ye. Mokonzi alobaki: — Ezalaki kaka Eliya, moto ya Tishibe.
9 Then did he send unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty: and he went up to him, and, behold, he was sitting on the top of the mount; and he spoke unto him, O man of God, the king hath commanded, Come down.
Mbala moko, mokonzi atindaki mokonzi ya basoda tuku mitano epai ya Eliya elongo na basoda na ye tuku mitano. Mokonzi ya basoda tuku mitano akendeki epai ya Eliya oyo azalaki kovanda na songe ya ngomba mpe alobaki na ye: — Moto na Nzambe, mokonzi apesi mitindo ete okende epai na ye.
10 And Elijah answered and spoke to the captain of the fifty, And if I be a man of God, let a fire come down from heaven and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down a fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
Kasi Eliya azongiselaki mokonzi yango ya basoda: — Soki solo nazali moto na Nzambe, tika ete moto ekita wuta na likolo mpe ezikisa yo mpe bato na yo tuku mitano. Bongo moto ekitaki wuta na likolo mpe ezikisaki mokonzi yango ya basoda elongo na basoda na ye tuku mitano.
11 And he sent again unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he commenced and spoke unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.
Mokonzi atindaki lisusu epai ya Eliya mokonzi mosusu ya basoda tuku mitano elongo na basoda na ye tuku mitano. Mokonzi ya basoda alobaki na Eliya: — Moto na Nzambe, mokonzi apesi mitindo ete okende noki epai na ye.
12 And Elijah answered and spoke unto them, If I be a man of God, let a fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
Kasi Eliya azongiselaki mokonzi ya basoda: — Soki solo nazali moto na Nzambe, tika ete moto ekita wuta na likolo mpe ezikisa yo elongo na bato na yo tuku mitano. Mbala moko moto ekitaki wuta na likolo mpe ezikisaki mokonzi ya basoda tuku mitano elongo na basoda na ye.
13 And he sent again a captain of fifty the third time with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and bent down on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and spoke unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the life of these fifty thy servants be precious in thy eyes.
Mokonzi Akazia atindaki lisusu na mbala ya misato mokonzi mosusu ya basoda tuku mitano elongo na basoda tuku mitano. Mokonzi yango akendeki kofukama liboso ya Eliya mpe abondelaki ye: — Moto na Nzambe, tika ete bomoi na ngai mpe bomoi ya basali na yo, bato tuku mitano oyo, ezala na motuya na miso na yo!
14 Behold, there came down a fire from heaven, and consumed the two captains of the first fifties with their fifties; and now let my life be precious in thy eyes.
Nayebi ete moto ekitaki wuta na likolo mpe ezikisaki bakonzi nyonso mibale ya basoda elongo na basoda na bango oyo bayaki liboso; kasi sik’oyo, tika ete bomoi na ngai mpe bomoi ya bato na ngai tuku mitano ezala na motuya na miso na yo!
15 And the angel of the Lord spoke unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him, and he arose, and went down with him unto the king.
Anjelu ya Yawe alobaki na Eliya: — Kende na ye nzela moko; kobanga ye te. Bongo Eliya atelemaki mpe akendeki na ye nzela moko kino epai ya mokonzi.
16 And he spoke unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Forasmuch as thou didst send messengers to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the God of 'Ekron, as though there were no God in Israel to inquire of his word: therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for thou shalt surely die.
Alobaki na mokonzi: Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Boni, Nzambe azali lisusu te na Isalaele mpo ete otinda bato kotuna epai ya Bala-Zebubi, nzambe ya Ekroni? Lokola osali bongo, okokita lisusu te na mbeto oyo olali, okokufa solo. »
17 And he died, according to the word of the Lord which Elijah had spoken; and Jehoram became king in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah; because he had no son.
Mokonzi Akazia akufaki kolanda liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Eliya. Lokola mokonzi Akazia azalaki na mwana te, ndeko na ye ya mobali Yorami akitanaki na ye na bokonzi na tango Yorami, mwana mobali ya Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu mibale na bokonzi.
18 Now the rest of the acts of Achazyahu which he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Akazia mpe misala oyo asalaki ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
