2 Kings 18
1 And it comes to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz, king of Judah, has reigned;
Tango Oze, mwana mobali ya Ela, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akokisaki mibu misato na bokonzi, Ezekiasi, mwana mobali ya Akazi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
2 he was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi daughter of Zechariah.
Ezekiasi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na libwa na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Abi. » Abi azalaki mwana mwasi ya Zakari.
3 And he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father David did,
Ezekiasi asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe ndenge Davidi, koko na ye, asalaki.
4 he has turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the Asherah, and beaten down the bronze serpent that Moses made, for up to these days the sons of Israel were making incense to it, and he calls it “a piece of bronze.”
Alongolaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, abukaki makonzi ya bule ya banzambe ya bikeko, mpe akataki likonzi ya bule ya nzambe mwasi Ashera. Abukaki-bukaki nyoka ya ebende oyo Moyize asalaki, pamba te kino na tango wana, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotumba ansa mpo na nyoka yango mpe kobenga yango « Nekushitani. »
5 In YHWH, God of Israel, he has trusted, and after him there has not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who were before him;
Ezekiasi atiaki motema na ye epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Mokonzi moko te akokanaki na ye kati na bakonzi nyonso ya Yuda, ezala liboso to sima na ye.
6 and he cleaves to YHWH, he has not turned aside from after Him, and keeps His commands that YHWH commanded Moses.
Atikalaki ya kokangama na Yawe mpe atikaki te kolanda Ye; abatelaki mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize.
7 And YHWH has been with him; in every place where he goes out he acts wisely, and he rebels against the king of Asshur, and has not served him;
Yawe azalaki elongo na ye mpe azalaki kolonga na makambo nyonso oyo azalaki kosala. Atombokelaki mokonzi ya Asiri mpe aboyaki kosalela ye.
8 he has struck the Philistines, even to Gaza and its borders, from a tower of watchers to the fortified city.
Alongaki bato ya Filisitia mpe alandaki bango kino na Gaza, abebisaki engumba mpe etuka na yango, mpe abotolaki bingumba batonga makasi mpe bandako milayi ya bakengeli.
9 And it comes to pass, in the fourth year of King Hezekiah—it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel—Shalmaneser king of Asshur has come up against Samaria and lays siege to it,
Tango Ezekiasi akokisaki mibu minei na bokonzi, oyo ezalaki mobu ya sambo ya bokonzi ya Oze, mwana mobali ya Ela, mokonzi ya Isalaele, Salimanasari, mokonzi ya Asiri, abundisaki Samari mpe azingelaki yango.
10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah—it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel—Samaria has been captured,
Bato ya Asiri babotolaki Samari sima na mibu misato ya bitumba, na mobu ya motoba ya bokonzi ya Ezekiasi, oyo ezalaki mobu ya libwa ya bokonzi ya Oze, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
11 and the king of Asshur removes Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] cities of the Medes,
Mokonzi ya Asiri amemaki bato ya Isalaele na bowumbu na Asiri mpe atiaki bango na Ala, na ngambo ya ebale Abori, na etuka ya Gozani mpe na bingumba ya Medi.
12 because that they have not listened to the voice of their God YHWH, and transgress His covenant—all that He commanded Moses, servant of YHWH—indeed, they have not listened nor done [it].
Makambo oyo esalemaki mpo ete bato ya Isalaele batosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe babukaki boyokani na Ye; elingi koloba ete batosaki te makambo nyonso oyo Moyize, mosali na Nzambe, atindaki bango.
13 And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Asshur has come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seizes them,
Tango mokonzi Ezekiasi akokisaki mibu zomi na minei na bokonzi, Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, abundisaki bingumba nyonso ya Yuda, oyo batonga makasi mpe abotolaki yango.
14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sends to the king of Asshur at Lachish, saying, “I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which you put on me I bear”; and the king of Asshur lays on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold,
Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, atindaki sango oyo epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri, na Lakishi: « Nasali mabe, bima na mboka na ngai; nakofuta yo nyonso oyo okosenga ngai. » Mokonzi ya Asiri akatelaki Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpako ya motuya ya bakilo nkoto zomi ya palata mpe bakilo nkoto moko ya wolo.
15 and Hezekiah gives all the silver that is found in the house of YHWH and in the treasures of the house of the king;
Ezekiasi apesaki ye palata nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi.
16 at that time Hezekiah has cut off the doors of the temple of YHWH, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gives them to the king of Asshur.
Na tango wana, Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, alongolaki wolo oyo asalelaki mpo na kolatisa bikuke mpe mabaya oyo esimbaka bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe, mpe apesaki yango epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri.
17 And the king of Asshur sends Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, to King Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [is] in the highway of the fuller’s field.
Wuta na Lakishi, mokonzi ya Asiri atindaki epai ya mokonzi Ezekiasi, na Yelusalemi, mokonzi ya mampinga na ye, mokonzi ya bakalaka ya lokumu, mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka ye, mpe mampinga ya basoda ya nguya. Tango bakomaki na Yelusalemi mpe batelemaki pene ya nzela oyo ememaka mayi na liziba ya mayi ya monene, oyo ezali na nzela ya elanga ya moto oyo atiaka langi na bilamba,
18 And they call to the king, and Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, go out to them.
babelelaki mokonzi. Mpe Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi; Shebina, mokomi mikanda; mpe Yoa, mwana mobali ya Azafi mpe mobombi mikanda, babimaki mpo na kokutana na bango.
19 And the chief of the butlers says to them, “Now say to Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur: What [is] this confidence in which you have confided?
Mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi ya Asiri alobaki na bango: « Boloba na Ezekiasi: ‹ Tala makambo oyo mokonzi monene, mokonzi ya Asiri, alobi: ‘Otie elikya na yo na nini?
20 You have said: Only a word of the lips! Counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom have you trusted that you have rebelled against me?
Okanisi ete maloba ya pamba ekoki kozwa esika ya mayele mpe makasi ya bitumba? Otie penza elikya na nani mpo ete otombokela ngai?
21 Now behold, you have trusted for yourself on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leans on, and it has gone into his hand and pierced it! So [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.
Tala, ozali nde kotia elikya na Ejipito oyo ezali lokola mwa nzete ya bambu oyo ebukana, oyo etobolaka mpe ezokisaka loboko ya moto oyo ayekamelaka yango! Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, azalaka nde bongo mpo na bato nyonso oyo batielaka ye motema!’
22 And when you say to me, We have trusted in our God YHWH, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has turned aside, and says to Judah and to Jerusalem, You bow yourselves before this altar in Jerusalem?
Tango mosusu bokoloba na ngai: ‘Totiaka elikya na biso kati na Yawe, Nzambe na biso.’ Boni! Ezali ye te oyo Ezekiasi alongolaki bisambelo na ye ya likolo ya bangomba mpe bitumbelo na ye tango alobaki na Yuda mpe na Yelusalemi: ‘Kati na Yelusalemi, bosengeli kogumbama liboso ya etumbelo oyo?’
23 And now, please give a pledge for yourself to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give two thousand horses to you, if you are able to give riders for yourself on them.
Sik’oyo, nabondeli yo, beta mondenge na nkolo na ngai, mokonzi ya Asiri: ‘Nakopesa yo bampunda nkoto mibale soki okoki kopesa basoda mpo ete batambolisa yango!
24 And how do you turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that you trust for yourself on Egypt for chariot and for horsemen?
Okokoka ndenge nini kokimisa ata mokonzi moko kaka, kati na bakonzi ya basoda ya nkolo na ngai, yo oyo otiaka elikya na yo kati na Ejipito mpo na bashar mpe bato oyo batambolisaka yango?
25 Have I now come up without YHWH against this place to destroy it? YHWH said to me, Go up against this land, and you have destroyed it.”
Boni, okanisi ete ngai nayei kobundisa mpe kobebisa esika oyo na ndingisa ya Yawe te? Ezali Ye moko Yawe nde alobaki na ngai ete nabundisa mokili oyo mpe nabebisa yango.’ › »
26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah says—and Shebna and Joah—to the chief of the butlers, “Please speak to your servants [in] Aramaic, for we are understanding, but do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.”
Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia, Shebina mpe Yoa balobaki na mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi: — Tobondeli yo, loba na basali na yo na lokota ya Arami, pamba te tososolaka yango; koloba na biso na lokota ya Ebre te, noki te bato oyo bazali na likolo ya mir bakoyoka.
27 And the chief of the butlers says to them, “For your lord, and to you, has my lord sent me to speak these words? Is it not for the men—those sitting on the wall—to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?”
Mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi azongisaki: — Bokanisi ete nkolo na ngai atindi ngai koloba maloba oyo kaka epai na mokonzi na bino mpe epai na bino? Te! Maloba yango ezali mpe mpo na bato oyo batelemi na likolo ya mir, oyo bakolia nyei na bango mpe komela masuba na bango elongo na bino?
28 And the chief of the butlers stands and calls with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaks and says, “Hear a word of the great king, the king of Asshur—
Boye mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi atelemaki mpe agangaki makasi na lokota ya Ebre: — Boyoka maloba ya mokonzi monene, mokonzi ya Asiri!
29 thus said the king: Do not let Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand;
Tala makambo oyo mokonzi alobi: « Tika ete Ezekiasi akosa bino te, pamba te akokoka te kokangola bino na loboko na ngai!
30 and do not let Hezekiah make you trust in YHWH, saying, YHWH certainly delivers us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
Bondima te ete Ezekiasi atinda bino kotia elikya na Yawe tango azali koloba: ‹ Solo, Yawe akokangola biso. Engumba oyo ekokweya te na maboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri. ›
31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur: Make a blessing with me, and come out to me, and each eat of his vine, and each [eat] of his fig tree, and each drink the waters of his own well,
Boyokela Ezekiasi te, pamba te tala makambo oyo mokonzi ya Asiri alobi: Bosala boyokani ya kimia elongo na ngai mpe boya epai na ngai; bongo moko na moko kati na bino akolia mbuma ya elanga na ye ya vino, ya nzete na ye ya figi, mpe akomela mayi ya libulu na ye
32 until my coming in, and I have taken you to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey; and live, and do not die; and do not listen to Hezekiah when he persuades you, saying, YHWH delivers us.
liboso ete naya kozwa bino mpo na komema bino na mokili oyo ekokana na oyo ya bino, mokili oyo etonda na ble mpe na vino ya sika, mokili ya mapa mpe ya bilanga ya vino, mokili ya banzete ya olive mpe ya mafuta ya nzoyi. Boye, bokozala na bomoi, bokokufa te! Bondima Ezekiasi te, pamba te azali kokosa bino tango azali koloba: ‹ Yawe akokangola biso. ›
33 Have each of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?
Boni, ezali na nzambe ya ekolo songolo, oyo alonga kokangola ekolo na ye na loboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri?
34 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where [are] the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Wapi banzambe ya Amati mpe ya Aripadi? Wapi banzambe ya Sefarivayimi, ya Ena, ya Iva? Boni, balongaki kokangola Samari na loboko na ngai?
35 Who [are they] among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that YHWH delivers Jerusalem out of my hand?”
Kati na banzambe nyonso ya bikolo oyo, nani azalaki na makoki ya kokangola mokili na ye na maboko na ngai? Bongo ndenge nini Yawe akoka solo kokangola Yelusalemi na maboko na ngai? »
36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, “Do not answer him.”
Kasi bato batikalaki kimia mpe bazongiselaki ye ata liloba moko te, pamba te mokonzi apesaki mitindo: — Bopesa ye eyano te!
37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, comes in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, to Hezekiah, with torn garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
Boye Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia mpe mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi; Shebina, mokomi mikanda; mpe Yoa, mwana mobali ya Azafi mpe mobombi mikanda, bayaki epai ya Ezekiasi na bilamba epasuka, mpe bayebisaki ye makambo oyo mokonzi ya basoda oyo bakengelaka mokonzi ya Asiri alobaki.
