< 2 Kings 22 >
1 Josiah [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jedidah daughter of Adaiah of Boskath,
Joziasi azalaki na mibu mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku misato na moko na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yedida. » Yedida azalaki mwana ya Adaya, moto ya mboka Botsikati.
2 and he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in all the way of his father David, and has not turned aside [to] the right or left.
Joziasi asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe mpe alandaki banzela oyo Davidi, tata na ye, atambolaki na yango; apengwaki na yango te, ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi to na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.
3 And it comes to pass, in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king has sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of YHWH, saying,
Tango Joziasi akokisaki mibu zomi na mwambe na bokonzi, atindaki Shafani, mokomi mikanda na ye, mwana mobali ya Atsalia mpe koko ya Meshulami, na Tempelo ya Yawe. Alobaki na ye:
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, and he completes the silver that is brought into the house of YHWH, that the keepers of the threshold have gathered from the people,
— Kende koyebisa Ilikia, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, ete atanga mbongo nyonso oyo bato bamemaki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe oyo bakengeli bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe bakongolaki.
5 and they give it into the hand of those doing the work, the overseers, in the house of YHWH, and they give it to those doing the work, that [are] in the house of YHWH, to strengthen the breach of the house,
Tika ete bapesa mbongo yango na maboko ya batambolisi misala ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpo ete bafuta basali oyo bazali kobongisa yango:
6 to craftsmen, and to builders, and [to repairers of] the wall, and to buy wood and hewn stones to strengthen the house;
basharipantie, bangamba mpe batongi ndako. Kaka na mbongo yango, bakosomba lisusu mabaya mpe mabanga bakata mpo na kolendisa Tempelo ya Yawe.
7 only, the silver that is given into their hand is not reckoned with them, for they are dealing in faithfulness.”
Kasi batuna bango te ndenge nini bakosalela mbongo yango, pamba te basalaka na boyengebene.
8 And Hilkiah the high priest says to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found [the] Scroll of the Law in the house of YHWH”; and Hilkiah gives the scroll to Shaphan, and he reads it.
Ilikia, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, alobaki na Shafani, mokomi mikanda: — Namoni buku ya Mobeko kati na Tempelo ya Yawe. Ilikia apesaki buku yango epai ya Shafani, mpe Shafani atangaki yango.
9 And Shaphan the scribe comes to the king, and brings the king back word, and says, “Your servants have poured out the silver that has been found in the house, and give it into the hand of those doing the work, the inspectors, in the house of YHWH.”
Bongo Shafani, mokomi mikanda, akendeki epai ya mokonzi mpe ayebisaki ye: — Basali na yo bapesi mbongo oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe epai ya batambolisi misala na yango,
10 And Shaphan the scribe declares to the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has given a scroll to me”; and Shaphan reads it before the king.
mpe Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia apesi ngai buku moko. Mpe Shafani atangaki buku yango liboso ya mokonzi.
11 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the Scroll of the Law, that he tears his garments,
Tango mokonzi ayokaki maloba ya buku ya Mobeko, apasolaki bilamba na ye
12 and the king commands Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah servant of the king, saying,
mpe apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia, epai ya Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani, epai ya Akibori, mwana mobali ya Mishe, epai ya Shafani, mokomi mikanda, mpe epai ya Asaya, moko kati na bakalaka ya mokonzi:
13 “Go, seek YHWH for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this scroll that is found, for great [is] the fury of YHWH that is kindled against us, because that our fathers have not listened to the words of this scroll, to do according to all that is written for us.”
— Bokende kotuna toli ya Yawe mpo na ngai, mpo na bato mpe mpo na Yuda mobimba, na tina na makambo oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ewuti komonana. Pamba te kanda ya Yawe, oyo epeleli biso ezali makasi mpo ete batata na biso batosaki te maloba ya buku yango mpe basalaki te kolanda nyonso oyo ekomama kati na yango.
14 And Hilkiah the priest goes, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, to Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the second [quarter], and they speak to her.
Boye Nganga-Nzambe Ilikia, Ayikami, Akibori, Shafani mpe Asaya bakendeki epai ya mwasi mosakoli Ulida, mwasi ya Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Tikiva, koko ya Arasi, mobombi bilamba ya Tempelo. Ulida azalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi, kati na etuka ya sika. Tango basilisaki koyebisa ye makambo,
15 And she says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Say to the man who has sent you to me,
Ulida alobaki na bango: — Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Boloba na tata oyo atindi bino epai na Ngai:
16 Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in calamity to this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the scroll that the king of Judah has read,
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakobengisa pasi makasi na esika oyo mpe na bavandi na yango kolanda makambo nyonso oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo mokonzi ya Yuda awuti kotanga.
17 because that they have forsaken Me, and make incense to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger with every work of their hands, and My wrath has been kindled against this place, and it is not quenched.
Lokola basundolaki Ngai mpe batumbaki mbeka ya malasi mpo na banzambe mosusu kino kotumbola Ngai na nzela ya biloko nyonso oyo maboko na bango esilaki kosala, kanda na Ngai epeli makasi mpo na kobebisa esika oyo, mpe ekokita te. »
18 And to the king of Judah, who is sending you to seek YHWH, thus you say to him, Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: The words that you have heard—
Boloba na mokonzi ya Yuda oyo atindi bino kotuna toli ya Yawe: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na maloba oyo oyokaki:
19 because your heart [is] tender, and you are humbled because of YHWH, in your hearing that which I have spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, to be for a desolation, and for a reviling, and you tear your garments and weep before Me—I also have heard—a declaration of YHWH—
Lokola motema na yo etutami, lokola omikitisi liboso ya Yawe sima na yo koyoka makambo oyo nalobaki, mpo na kotelemela esika oyo elongo na bavandi na yango, ete bakobebisama mpe bakolakelama mabe; lokola opasoli bilamba na yo mpe oleli liboso na Ngai, Ngai mpe nayoki, elobi Yawe.
20 therefore, behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you have been gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes do not look on any of the calamity that I am bringing in on this place”; and they bring the king back word.
Mpo na yango, nakosala ete okende kokutana na bakoko na yo; mpe okokundama na kimia kati na moko na bakunda na yo. Na bongo, miso na yo ekomona te pasi nyonso oyo nakotindela esika oyo. » Batindami bakomisaki eyano oyo epai ya mokonzi.
