< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
Tango feti nyonso esilaki, bato nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kuna bakendeki na bingumba ya Yuda, babukaki makonzi ya bule, bakweyisaki bikeko ya nzambe mwasi Ashera mpe bapanzaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe bitumbelo kati na Yuda nyonso, kati na Benjame, kati na Efrayimi mpe kati na Manase. Sima na kobebisa biloko wana nyonso, bato ya Isalaele bazongaki kati na bingumba na bango mpe bandako na bango.
2 Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Jehovah.
Ezekiasi atiaki Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi na masanga mpe apesaki na moko na moko mosala kati na lisanga na ye. Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi bapesamelaki mosala ya bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani, mosala ya kozongisa matondi mpe ya koyemba banzembo mpo na kokumisa mpe kosanzola Yawe, na bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
3 He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.
Mokonzi azwaki ndambo ya bozwi na ye mpe apesaki mpo na bambeka ya kotumba: bambeka ya kotumba ya tongo mpe ya pokwa, ya mikolo ya Saba, ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe ya bafeti oyo ekatama, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na mibeko ya Yawe.
4 Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Jehovah.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi ete bapesa ndambo oyo esengeli kopesama epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi mpo ete bamipesa na misala oyo mibeko ya Yawe ezali kotinda bango.
5 As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
Tango kaka bapanzaki sango ya mitindo oyo, bato ya Isalaele bapesaki na esengo bambuma na bango ya liboso ya ble, ya vino ya sika, ya mafuta, ya mafuta ya nzoyi mpe ya biloko nyonso oyo ebimaka na bilanga. Bamemaki lisusu biloko ebele lokola eteni ya zomi ya nyonso.
6 The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.
Bato ya Isalaele elongo na bato ya Yuda oyo bazalaki kovanda kati na bingumba ya Yuda bamemaki eteni na bango ya zomi ya bangombe, ya bameme, ya bantaba mpe ya makabo ya bule oyo ebulisamaki mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe batiaki yango na mipiku.
7 In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
Babandaki kosala mipiku yango na sanza ya misato mpe basilisaki na sanza ya sambo.
8 And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.
Tango Ezekiasi elongo na bakalaka na ye bayaki komona mipiku yango, bakumisaki Yawe mpe bapambolaki Isalaele, bato na Ye.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
Ezekiasi atunaki Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi na tina na mipiku yango.
10 Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, "Since people began to bring the offerings into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Jehovah has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store."
Azaria, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, moto ya libota ya Tsadoki, azongisaki: — Wuta tango bato babandaki komema makabo na bango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, toliaki, totondaki mpe totiki ebele, pamba te Yawe apambolaki bato na Ye. Mipiku ya biloko oyo ozali komona awa ezali nde oyo etikali.
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in the house of Jehovah; and they prepared them.
Ezekiasi apesaki mitindo ete babongisa bisika mpo na kobomba biloko yango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe; mpe esalemaki bongo.
12 They brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
Bakomaki kotia kuna na boyengebene makabo ya bato, biteni ya zomi mpe makabo mosusu ya bule. Molevi Konania azalaki na mokumba ya kobatela biloko yango elongo na Shimei, ndeko na ye ya mobali, lokola molandi na ye.
13 Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismakiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of God's house.
Kolandisama na mokano ya mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe ya Azaria, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe ya Tempelo ya Nzambe, Yeyeli, Azazia, Naati, Asaeli, Yerimoti, Yozabadi, Elieli, Yisimakia, Maati mpe Benaya bazalaki bakengeli ya misala na bokambami ya Konania mpe Shimei, ndeko na ye ya mobali.
14 Kore the son of Jimnah the Levite, the keeper of the east gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of Jehovah, and the most holy things.
Molevi Kore, mwana mobali ya Yimina, oyo azalaki mokengeli ekuke ya ngambo ya este azalaki na mokumba ya koyamba makabo oyo bato bazalaki kopesa epai ya Nzambe, wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango; azalaki mpe na mokumba ya kokabola makabo oyo bazalaki kokongola mpo na Yawe mpe makabo ya bule.
15 Under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, alongside the priests, to faithfully make disbursements to their brothers by divisions, as well to the great as to the small:
Kati na bingumba ya Banganga-Nzambe, Kore asungamaki na Edeni, Minyamini, Jozue, Shemaya, Amaria mpe Shekania, mpo na kokabola biloko na boyengebene epai ya bandeko na bango Banganga-Nzambe kolanda masanga na bango; bazalaki kosala bokeseni te kati na bato minene mpe bato mike.
16 besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the house of Jehovah, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions.
Bazalaki kopesa kaka te na mibali oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki, kobanda na mibu misato ya mbotama mpe komata, kasi bazalaki mpe kopesa na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na kosala misala na bango ya mokolo na mokolo kolanda mikumba mpe masanga na bango.
17 This is the enrollment of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
Bapesaki na Banganga-Nzambe oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki kolanda mabota na bango ya botata mpe na Balevi oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda mibu tuku mibale mpe komata, kolanda mikumba mpe masanga na bango;
18 and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
bapesaki na bana mike nyonso, na basi, na bana mibali mpe na bana basi ya lisanga mobimba, ba-oyo bakombo na bango ekomamaki kati na buku ya milongo ya mbotama, pamba te bazalaki kokokisa na boyengebene mibeko ya libulisi mpo na kozala bule.
19 Also for the descendants of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
Lokola ndenge ezalaki mpo na Banganga-Nzambe, bakitani ya Aron, oyo bazalaki kovanda na bamboka ya zingazinga ya bingumba na bango, bato baponamaki na bakombo mpo na kokabola biloko epai ya bato nyonso kati na Banganga-Nzambe mpe epai ya Balevi nyonso oyo bakomamaki.
20 Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he worked that which was good and right and faithful before Jehovah his God.
Ezali boye nde Ezekiasi asalaki kati na mokili na ye mobimba ya Yuda. Asalaki makambo ya malamu, ya sembo mpe ya solo na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
21 In every work that he began in the service of God's house, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
Kati na nyonso oyo Ezekiasi asalaki, ezala mpo na mosala ya Ndako ya Nzambe to mpo na botosi mibeko mpe mitindo, azalaki koluka Nzambe na ye mpe kosala na motema na ye mobimba; mpe azalaki kolonga na makambo nyonso oyo azalaki kosala.
