< 2 Kings 1 >

1 And Moab transgresses against Israel after the death of Ahab,
Sima na kufa ya mokonzi Akabi, bato ya Moabi batombokelaki Isalaele.
2 and Ahaziah falls through the lattice in his upper chamber that [is] in Samaria, and is sick, and sends messengers, and says to them, “Go, inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron if I 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 And a messenger of YHWH has spoken to Elijah the Tishbite, “Rise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and speak to them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are going to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub 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 And therefore, thus said YHWH: The bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly die”; and Elijah goes on.
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 return to him, and he says to them, “What [is] this—you have turned back!”
Tango bantoma bazongaki epai ya mokonzi, atunaki bango: — Mpo na nini bozongi?
6 And they say to him, “A man has come up to meet us and says to us, Go, return to the king who sent you, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH: Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are sending to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly 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 says to them, “What [is] the fashion of the man who has come up to meet you, and speaks these words to you?”
Mokonzi atunaki bango: — Moto oyo ayaki kokutana na bino mpe ayebisaki bino makambo oyo azalaki ndenge nini?
8 And they say to him, “A hairy man, and a girdle of skin girt around his loins”; and he says, “He [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 And he sends to him a head of fifty and his fifty, and he goes up to him (and behold, he is sitting on the top of the hill), and he speaks to him, “O man of God, the king has spoken, 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 answers and speaks to the head of the fifty, “And if I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire comes down from the heavens and consumes 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 turns and sends to him another head of fifty and his fifty, and he answers and speaks to him, “O man of God, thus said the king: Hurry, come down.”
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 answers and speaks to them, “If I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire of God comes down from the heavens and consumes 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 turns and sends a third head of fifty and his fifty, and the third head of fifty goes up, and comes in, and bows on his knees before Elijah, and makes supplication to him, and speaks to him, “O man of God, please let my soul and the soul of your servants—these fifty—be precious in your 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, fire has come down from the heavens and consumes the two heads of the former fifties and their fifties; and now, let my soul be precious in your 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 a messenger of YHWH speaks to Elijah, “Go down with him, do not be afraid of him”; and he rises and goes down with him to 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 speaks to him, “Thus said YHWH: Because that you have sent messengers to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron—is it because there is not a God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up—you do not come down from it, for you certainly 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 dies, according to the word of YHWH that Elijah spoke, and Jehoram reigns in his stead, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, for 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 And the rest of the matters of Ahaziah that he did, are they not written on the scroll 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.
