< 2 Kings 25 >
1 And it comes to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has come, he and all his force, against Jerusalem, and encamps against it, and builds a surrounding fortification against it.
Tango Sedesiasi akokisaki mibu libwa na bokonzi, na mokolo ya zomi ya sanza mpe ya zomi, Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso, ayaki kobundisa Yelusalemi. Batongaki molako na bango libanda ya engumba, mpe atongaki mabulu mpo na kobombama, na zingazinga na yango nyonso.
2 And the city enters into siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
Engumba yango ezingelamaki kino na mobu ya zomi na moko ya bokonzi ya Sedesiasi.
3 On the ninth of the month, when the famine is severe in the city, then there has not been bread for the people of the land.
Na mokolo ya libwa ya sanza ya minei, wana nzala makasi ekotaki kati na engumba mpe bato bazalaki lisusu na eloko ya kolia te,
4 And the city is broken up, and all the men of war [go] by night the way of the gate, between the two walls that [are] by the garden of the king, and the Chaldeans [are] against the city all around, and [the king] goes the way of the plain.
bongo lokola lidusu moko efungwamaki kati na mir ya engumba, basoda nyonso ya Yuda bakimaki butu-butu mpe babimelaki na ekuke oyo ezalaki na kati-kati ya bamir mibale, pene ya elanga ya mokonzi, atako bato ya Babiloni bazingelaki engumba. Bakimaki na nzela ya lubwaku ya Yordani.
5 And the force of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake him in the plains of Jericho, and all his force have been scattered from him;
Kasi basoda ya Babiloni balandaki mokonzi mpe bakangaki ye kati na etando ya Jeriko epai wapi basoda na ye nyonso bakimaki ye mpe bapanzanaki.
6 and they seize the king, and bring him up to the king of Babylon, to Riblah, and they speak judgment with him.
Basoda ya Babiloni bakangaki mokonzi ya Yuda mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, na Ribila epai wapi bakatelaki ye etumbu.
7 And they have slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he has blinded the eyes of Zedekiah, and binds him with bronze chains, and they bring him to Babylon.
Bakataki mito ya bana mibali ya Sedesiasi na miso na ye; mpe Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atobolaki miso ya Sedesiasi, apesaki mitindo ete bakanga ye minyololo ya bronze mpe bamema ye na Babiloni.
8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh of the month (it [is] the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners, servant of the king of Babylon, has come to Jerusalem,
Tango Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, akokisaki mibu zomi na libwa na bokonzi, Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli mpe mosali ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, ayaki na Yelusalemi na mokolo ya sambo ya sanza ya mitano.
9 and he burns the house of YHWH, and the house of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem, indeed, he has burned every great house with fire;
Atumbaki Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe bandako nyonso ya Yelusalemi; atumbaki bandako nyonso ya bato minene.
10 and all the forces of the Chaldeans, who [are] with the chief of the executioners, have broken down the walls of Jerusalem all around.
Mampinga nyonso ya Babiloni, oyo ezalaki na se ya bokonzi ya mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi babukaki bamir oyo ezingelaki Yelusalemi.
11 And the rest of the people, those left in the city, and those falling who have fallen to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude, Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners has removed;
Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, amemaki na bowumbu bato oyo batikalaki kati na engumba, bato oyo bamipesaki epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bato mosusu oyo batikalaki.
12 and of the poor of the land the chief of the executioners has left for vinedressers and for farmers.
Kasi mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi atikaki kati na mokili ndambo ya babola mpo na kolona vino mpe bilanga.
13 And the pillars of bronze that [are] in the house of YHWH, and the bases, and the sea of bronze, that [is] in the house of YHWH, the Chaldeans have broken in pieces, and carry away their bronze to Babylon.
Bato ya Babiloni babukaki makonzi ya bronze oyo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bashario ya bronze mpe nzungu ya monene ya bronze oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, mpe bamemaki bronze na yango na Babiloni.
14 And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they minister, they have taken;
Bakamataki lisusu biloko nyonso ya bronze oyo bazalaki kosala na yango losambo kati na Tempelo, basani ya putulu, bapawu, bambeli, bakopo.
15 and the fire-pans, and the bowls that [are] wholly of silver, the chief of the executioners has taken.
Mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi akamataki lisusu biloko nyonso ya wolo mpe ya palata: bambabola mpe basani ya kobwakela mayi.
16 The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases that Solomon made for the house of YHWH, there was no weighing of the bronze of all these vessels;
Bakokaki te komeka kilo ya bronze ya biloko nyonso oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na Tempelo ya Yawe: makonzi nyonso mibale, nzungu ya monene mpe bashario.
17 eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and the capital on it [is] of bronze, and the height of the capital [is] three cubits, and the net and the pomegranates [are] on the capital all around—the whole [is] of bronze; and the second pillar has like these, with the net.
Likonzi moko na moko ezalaki na bametele pene libwa na bosanda. Moto ya likonzi, oyo ezalaki na songe, ezalaki ya bronze mpe na metele pene moko na ndambo na molayi; mpe bazingelaki yango na bililingi ya basinga oyo basala lokola monyama mpe bambuma ya grenade. Makonzi nyonso mibale mpe bililingi ya basinga oyo basala lokola monyama ezalaki ndenge moko.
18 And the chief of the executioners takes Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold;
Mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi atiaki na boloko Seraya, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe; Sofoni, molandi ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe; mpe Banganga-Nzambe misato oyo bazalaki na mokumba ya kokengela ekotelo ya Tempelo.
19 and he has taken out of the city a certain eunuch who is appointed over the men of war, and five men of those seeing the king’s face who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host who musters the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land who are found in the city;
Kati na bato oyo batikalaki kati na engumba, akangaki lisusu moko kati na bakalaka ya lokumu, oyo azalaki na mokumba ya kotala makambo ya basoda ya bitumba, bapesi toli mitano, mokomi mikanda ya mokonzi ya mampinga, oyo azalaki na mokumba ya kokoma bakombo ya bato ya mboka mpo na kokota na mosala ya mampinga; mpe mibali tuku motoba ya Yuda, oyo bakutaki kati na engumba.
20 and Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners takes them, and causes them to go to the king of Babylon, to Libnah,
Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, akamataki bango nyonso mpe amemaki bango epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, na Ribila.
21 and the king of Babylon strikes them, and puts them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he removes Judah from off its land.
Mokonzi ya Babiloni abomaki bango kuna na Ribila, kati na mokili ya Amati. Boye, bato ya Yuda bakendeki na bowumbu mosika ya mokili na bango.
22 And the people that are left in the land of Judah whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has left—he appoints Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, over them.
Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atiaki Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami mpe koko ya Shafani, lokola moyangeli ya bato oyo atikaki kati na mokili ya Yuda.
23 And all the heads of the forces hear—they and the men—that the king of Babylon has appointed Gedaliah, and they come to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, even Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and Seraiah son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah son of the Maachathite—they and their men;
Tango bakonzi nyonso ya mampinga elongo na basoda na bango bayokaki ete mokonzi ya Babiloni akomisi Gedalia moyangeli, bakendeki na Mitsipa epai ya Gedalia. Tala bakombo ya bato yango: Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania; Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea; Seraya, mwana mobali ya Tanumeti, moto ya Netofa; mpe Yazania, mwana mobali ya moto moko ya Maakati. Bakendeki kuna elongo na basoda na bango.
24 and Gedaliah swears to them and to their men, and says to them, “Do not be afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans, dwell in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it is good for you.”
Gedalia alapaki ndayi liboso na bango mpe basoda na bango na maloba oyo: « Bobanga te kosalela bato ya Babiloni, bovanda kati na mokili, bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bokozala na bino malamu. »
25 And it comes to pass, in the seventh month, Ishmael son of Nathaniah has come, son of Elishama of the seed of the kingdom, and ten men with him, and they strike Gedaliah, and he dies, and the Jews and the Chaldeans who have been with him in Mizpah.
Kasi na sanza ya misato, Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania mpe koko ya Elishama, oyo azalaki na molongo ya libota ya bokonzi, ayaki elongo na basoda zomi; babomaki Gedalia elongo na bato ya Yuda mpe bato ya Babiloni oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, na Mitsipa.
26 And all the people rise, from small even to great, and the heads of the forces, and come to Egypt, for they have been afraid of the presence of the Chaldeans.
Boye bato nyonso, kobanda na bato ya se kino bato ya lokumu, elongo na bakonzi ya basoda, bakimaki na Ejipito, pamba te bazalaki kobanga bato ya Babiloni.
27 And it comes to pass, in the thirty-seventh year of the expulsion of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh of the month, Evil-Merodach king of Babylon has lifted up, in the year of his reigning, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, out of the house of restraint,
Tango Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na sambo na bowumbu, Evili-Merodaki, mokonzi ya Babiloni, ayokelaki Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda, mawa mpe abimisaki ye na boloko, na mokolo ya tuku mibale na sambo ya sanza ya zomi na mibale, kaka na mobu oyo akomaki mokonzi.
28 and speaks good things with him and puts his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
Evili-Merodaki asololaki na Yeoyakini na boboto mpe apesaki ye lokumu koleka bakonzi mosusu oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, na bowumbu kati na Babiloni;
29 and has changed the garments of his restraint, and he has eaten bread continually before him all [the] days of his life,
apesaki mitindo ete balongola ye bilamba ya boloko mpe andimaki ete abanda kolia mesa moko elongo na ye, mokolo na mokolo kino na suka ya bomoi na ye.
30 and his allowance—a continual allowance—has been given to him from the king, the matter of a day in its day, all [the] days of his life.
Mokonzi ya Babiloni azalaki kopesa ye nyonso oyo asengeli na yango mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na ye.
