< 2 Chronicles 32 >

1 After these things and this truth, Sennacherib king of Asshur has come, indeed, he comes to Judah, and encamps against the cities of the bulwarks, and says to break into them himself.
Sima na Ezekiasi kotalisa boyengebene na ye epai ya Nzambe, Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, ayaki kobundisa Yuda. Azingelaki bingumba batonga makasi, pamba te azalaki na posa ya kobotola yango.
2 And Hezekiah sees that Sennacherib has come, and his face [is] to the battle against Jerusalem,
Tango Ezekiasi amonaki ete Senakeribe ayei mpe azali na makanisi ya kobundisa Yelusalemi,
3 and he takes counsel with his heads and his mighty ones, to stop the waters of the fountains that [are] at the outside of the city—and they help him,
apesaki bakalaka mpe bakonzi ya basoda na ye likanisi ya kokanga bitima oyo ezalaki na libanda ya engumba. Bango nyonso bandimaki likanisi yango mpe basungaki ye.
4 and many people are gathered, and they stop all the fountains and the brook that is rushing into the midst of the land, saying, “Why do the kings of Asshur come, and have found much water?”
Bato ebele basanganaki mpe bakangaki bitima nyonso elongo na mayi oyo ezalaki kotiola na se ya mabele. Balobaki: — Mpo na nini bakonzi ya Asiri baya kokuta mayi ebele?
5 And he strengthens himself, and builds the whole of the wall that is broken, and causes [it] to ascend to the towers, and at the outside of the wall [builds] another, and strengthens Millo [in] the City of David, and makes darts in abundance, and shields.
Ezekiasi asalaki mosala makasi ya kobamba madusu ya mir mpe ya kobakisa bosanda ya bandako milayi; atongaki mir mosusu na libanda, alendisaki mir ya engumba ya Davidi mpe asalaki lisusu makonga mpe banguba ebele.
6 And he puts heads of war over the people, and gathers them to him, to the broad place of a gate of the city, and speaks to their heart, saying,
Atiaki bakonzi ya basoda mpo ete bakamba bato mpe asangisaki bango liboso na ye, na esika oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya engumba. Alendisaki bango na maloba oyo:
7 “Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid, nor be cast down from the face of the king of Asshur, and from the face of all the multitude that [is] with him, for with us [are] more than with him.
— Bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko! Bobanga te mpe bolenga te liboso ya mokonzi ya Asiri mpe ya mampinga ya basoda ebele oyo bazali elongo na ye, pamba te Ye oyo azali elongo na biso azali na nguya monene koleka ye.
8 With him [is] an arm of flesh, but with us [is] our God YHWH to help us and to fight our battles”; and the people are supported by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
Mokonzi oyo ya Asiri azali kaka na nguya ya bomoto; kasi biso, tozali elongo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso, oyo akosunga mpe akobundela biso bitumba. Boye bato batiaki elikya na maloba oyo Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, alobaki.
9 After this Sennacherib king of Asshur has sent his servants to Jerusalem—and he [is] by Lachish, and all his power with him—against Hezekiah king of Judah and against all Judah who [are] in Jerusalem, saying,
Sima na yango, wana Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, elongo na mampinga ya basoda na ye nyonso bazingelaki engumba Lakishi, atindaki bakonzi ya basoda na ye epai ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpe epai ya bato nyonso ya Yuda, oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi; atindaki bango kopesa sango oyo:
10 “Thus said Sennacherib king of Asshur: On what are you trusting and abiding in the bulwark in Jerusalem?
« Tala makambo oyo Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, alobi: Botie elikya na bino na nini mpo ete bowumela kati na Yelusalemi oyo bazingeli?
11 Is Hezekiah not persuading you to give you up to die by famine and by thirst, saying, Our God YHWH delivers us from the hand of the king of Asshur?
Bozali komona te ete Ezekiasi azali kokosa bino mpo ete bokufa na nzala mpe na posa ya mayi tango azali koloba: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akokangola biso na loboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri? ›
12 Has Hezekiah himself not turned aside His high places and His altars, and speaks to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, You bow yourselves before one altar and you make incense on it?
Boni, ezali kaka Ezekiasi wana te oyo alongolaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe bitumbelo ya banzambe tango alobaki na Yuda mpe na Yelusalemi: ‹ Bosengeli kogumbama liboso ya etumbelo moko kaka mpe kobonza mbeka ya malasi na likolo ya etumbelo yango? ›
13 Do you not know what I have done—I and my fathers—to all peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?
Boyebi te makambo oyo ngai mpe batata na ngai tosalaki bato nyonso ya bikolo mosusu? Boni, banzambe ya bikolo wana bakokaki solo kokangola mikili na bango na maboko na ngai?
14 Who among all the gods of these nations whom my fathers have devoted to destruction [is] he who has been able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God is able to deliver you out of my hand?
Kati na banzambe nyonso ya bikolo oyo batata na ngai babebisaki, nani akokaki kokangola bato na ye na maboko na ngai? Bongo ndenge nini Nzambe na bino akoka solo kokangola bino na maboko na ngai?
15 And now, do not let Hezekiah lift you up, nor persuade you thus, nor give credence to him, for no god of any nation and kingdom is able to deliver his people from my hand and from the hand of my fathers: also, surely your God does not deliver you from my hand!”
Sik’oyo, botika te ete Ezekiasi amema bino na libunga mpe akosa bino ndenge wana; bondimela ye te! Pamba te soki nzambe moko te ya ekolo songolo to ya mokili pakala alongaki kokangola bato na ye na loboko na ngai mpe na loboko ya batata na ngai, bongo nzambe na bino nde akolonga kokangola bino na loboko na ngai? »
16 And again his servants have spoken against YHWH God and against His servant Hezekiah,
Bakonzi ya basoda ya Senakeribe bakobaki koloba mabe na tina na Yawe Nzambe mpe Ezekiasi, mosali na Ye.
17 and he has written letters to give reproach to YHWH, God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, “As the gods of the nations of the lands that have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah does not deliver His people from my hand.”
Senakeribe akomaki lisusu mikanda mpo na kofinga Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Tala maloba mabe oyo akomaki na tina na Ye: « Ndenge banzambe ya bato ya bikolo mosusu balongaki te kokangola bato na bango, ndenge wana mpe nzambe ya Ezekiasi akolonga te kokangola bato na ye na maboko na ngai. »
18 And they call with a great voice [in] Jewish against the people of Jerusalem who [are] on the wall, to frighten them and to trouble them, that they may capture the city,
Boye bagangaki na lokota ya Ebre mpo na kolengisa mpe kobangisa bato ya Yelusalemi oyo batelemaki likolo ya mir, mpo ete bakoka kobotola engumba.
19 and they speak against the God of Jerusalem as against the gods of the peoples of the land—work of the hands of man.
Balobaki na tina na Nzambe ya Yelusalemi lokola bato oyo bazali kolobela nzambe moko ya bapagano, nzambe oyo bato basali na ndenge mpe na maboko na bango!
20 And Hezekiah the king prays, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, concerning this, and they cry to the heavens,
Mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, babondelaki Nzambe na tina na yango mpe bagangaki na ngambo ya Lola mpo na kosenga lisungi.
21 and YHWH sends a messenger and cuts off every mighty man of valor—both leader and head—in the camp of the king of Asshur, and he turns back with shame of face to his land and enters the house of his god, and those coming out of his bowels have caused him to fall there by the sword.
Yawe atindaki anjelu moko oyo abomaki basoda nyonso ya mpiko, bakonzi ya basoda elongo na bakambi kati molako ya mokonzi ya Asiri. Mokonzi ya Asiri azongaki na mokili na ye na soni makasi. Mpe tango akotaki na ndako ya nzambe na ye, bana na ye ya mibali babomaki ye na mopanga.
22 And YHWH saves Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Asshur and from the hand of all, and He leads them around;
Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Yawe akangolaki Ezekiasi mpe bato ya Yelusalemi na maboko ya Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, mpe na maboko ya banguna mosusu; mpe apesaki bango kimia na bangambo nyonso.
23 and many are bringing in an offering to YHWH, to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah, and he is lifted up before the eyes of all the nations after this.
Bato ebele bamemaki na Yelusalemi makabo mpo na Yawe mpe bakado ya motuya mpo na Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda. Wuta tango wana, lokumu ya Ezekiasi emataki makasi na miso ya bikolo nyonso.
24 In those days Hezekiah has been sick even to death, and he prays to YHWH, and He speaks to him and has appointed a wonder for him;
Na tango wana, Ezekiasi abelaki bokono moko ya makasi, pene akufa. Asambelaki Yawe; mpe Yawe ayanolaki, apesaki ye elembo moko ya kokamwa.
25 and Hezekiah has not returned according to the deed [done] to him, for his heart has been lofty, and there is wrath on him and on Judah and Jerusalem;
Kasi mpo ete Ezekiasi akomaki na lolendo, atambolaki lisusu te na lolenge ya kondima bolamu ya Nzambe mpe ya kozongisela Ye matondi; mpo na yango, Yawe asilikelaki ye, Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
26 and Hezekiah is humbled for the loftiness of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the wrath of YHWH has not come on them in the days of Hezekiah.
Bongo Ezekiasi amikitisaki, atikaki lolendo na ye mpe abongolaki motema. Bato ya Yelusalemi mpe basalaki lokola Ezekiasi. Boye, Yawe akweyiselaki bango kanda na Ye te na mikolo nyonso oyo Ezekiasi azalaki mokonzi.
27 And Hezekiah has very much riches and honor, and he has made treasures for himself of silver, and of gold, and of precious stone, and of spices, and of shields, and of all [kinds] of desirable vessels,
Ezekiasi azalaki na bozwi ebele mpe na lokumu mingi, abombaki palata, wolo, mabanga ya talo, biloko ya solo kitoko, banguba mpe biloko nyonso ya talo.
28 and storehouses for the increase of grain, and new wine, and oil, and stalls for all kinds of livestock, and herds for stalls;
Atongaki bibombelo ya ble, ya vino ya sika mpe ya mafuta; atongaki lisusu mapango mpe bandako mpo na bibwele na ye.
29 and he has made cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance, for God has given very much substance to him.
Atongaki bingumba mpe akomaki na bibwele ebele: bantaba, bameme mpe bangombe. Nzambe apesaki ye bozwi mingi.
30 And Hezekiah himself has stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and directs them beneath to the west of the City of David, and Hezekiah prospers in all his work;
Ezali mpe Ezekiasi moto akangaki monoko ya etima ya Giyoni mpe alekisaki mayi na yango na se ya mabele, na ngambo ya weste ya engumba ya Davidi. Ezekiasi azalaki kolonga na misala na ye nyonso.
31 and so with the ambassadors of the heads of Babylon, those sending to him to inquire of the wonder that has been in the land, God has left him to try him, to know all in his heart.
Kasi tango bakambi ya Babiloni batindelaki ye bakalaka mpo na kotuna ye na tina na elembo ya kokamwa oyo esalemaki kati na mokili, Nzambe atikaki Ezekiasi kosala na ndenge na ye moko mpo na komeka ye mpe koyeba mozindo ya motema na ye.
32 And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah and his kind acts, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, on the scroll of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali Ezekiasi elongo na misala ya botosi na ye kati na makambo ya Nzambe, ekomama kati na emoniseli ya mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, mpe kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele.
33 And Hezekiah lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the highest of the graves of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem have done honor to him at his death, and his son Manasseh reigns in his stead.
Ezekiasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na ngomba moke epai wapi bakunda ya bakitani ya Davidi ezali. Bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi bapesaki ye lokumu tango akufaki, mpe Manase, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
