1 Kings 14
1 At that time, fell sick, Abijah son of Jeroboam.
Na tango wana kaka, Abiya, mwana mobali ya Jeroboami, akomaki kobela.
2 Then said Jeroboam to his wife—Arise, I pray thee, and feign thyself another, that it be not known, that, thou, art the wife of Jeroboam, —and thou shalt go thy way to Shiloh, lo! there, is Ahijah the prophet, who promised I should be king over this people;
Jeroboami alobaki na mwasi na ye: — Mibongola mpo ete bato bayeba te ete ozali mwasi ya mokonzi Jeroboami; bongo, kende na Silo. Mosakoli Ayiya azali kuna; ye nde alobaki na ngai ete nakozala mokonzi ya bato oyo.
3 and thou shall take with thee ten loaves, and cracknels, and a bottle of honey, and shalt go unto him, —he, will tell thee what shall befall the young man.
Kamata mapa zomi, ndambo ya bagato, na ekolo ya mafuta ya nzoyi, mpe kende kokutana na ye; akoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekokomela mwana na biso ya mobali.
4 And the wife of Jeroboam, did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and entered the house of Ahijah, —now, Ahijah, could not see, for his eyes were fixed, by reason of his old age.
Mwasi ya Jeroboami asalaki makambo oyo mobali na ye atindaki ye: akendeki na Silo mpe akotaki na ndako ya Ayiya. Nzokande, Ayiya azalaki komona lisusu te, pamba te miso na ye ekufaki mpo ete akomaki mobange.
5 But, Yahweh, had said unto Ahijah—Lo! the wife of Jeroboam, coming to enquire something of thee, concerning her son, for he is sick, thus and so, shalt thou speak unto her, —though, when she cometh in, she feign to be a stranger-woman.
Yawe alobaki na Ayiya: — Mwasi ya Jeroboami azali koya kotuna yo toli mpo na mwana na ye ya mobali, pamba te azali kobela. Osengeli kopesa ye eyano songolo to pakala. Tango akoya, akosala lokola nde azali moto mosusu.
6 So it came to pass, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she entered the doorway, that he said—Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam, —wherefore, is it that thou art feigning to be a stranger-woman, seeing that, I, am sent unto thee, with something hard to bear?
Tango Ayiya ayokaki makelele ya makolo ya mwasi ya Jeroboami na ekuke, alobaki: — Kota, mwasi ya Jeroboami! Mpo na nini ozali komibongola? Natindami epai na yo mpo na koyebisa yo sango mabe.
7 Go, say to Jeroboam—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the midst of the people, —and gave thee to be leader over my people Israel;
Kende koloba na Jeroboami: « Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Natombolaki yo kati na bato mpe nakomisaki yo mokambi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
8 and rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to thee, —and yet thou hast not been like my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me, with all his heart, to do only that which was right in mine eyes;
Nalongolaki bokonzi na maboko ya ndako ya Davidi mpe napesaki yo yango, kasi otambolaki te lokola Davidi, mowumbu na Ngai, oyo atosaki mibeko na Ngai mpe azalaki kolanda Ngai na motema na ye mobimba, mpo na kosala oyo kaka ezali malamu na miso na Ngai.
9 but hast made wicked thy doings beyond any who were before thee, —and hast gone and made thee ether gods, even molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast, me, behind thy back,
Kasi yo, osali mabe koleka bato nyonso oyo bazalaki liboso na yo: omisaleli banzambe mosusu, bikeko ya bibende banyangwisa na moto; boye, olamusi kanda na Ngai mpe opesi Ngai mokongo.
10 therefore, behold me! bringing misfortune against the house of Jeroboam, and I will cut off the meanest pertaining to Jeroboam, whether shut up or left at large, in Israel, —and will consume after the house of Jeroboam, as one consumeth dung, till it be all gone:
Yango wana, nakoyeisa pasi na ndako ya Jeroboami, nakosilisa koboma mibali nyonso kati na ndako ya Jeroboami, ezala mowumbu to monsomi kati na Isalaele; nakokomba ndako ya Jeroboami ndenge bakombaka matiti ya mbindo, kino nyonso penza ekosila.
11 Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city, shall, the dogs, eat, and, him that dieth in the field, shall, the birds of heaven, eat, —For, Yahweh, hath spoken.
Bambwa ekolia bato nyonso ya Jeroboami, oyo bakokufa kati na engumba; mpe bandeke ya likolo ekolia bato nyonso oyo bakokufa na zamba, elobi Yawe. › »
12 Thou, therefore, arise, go to thine own house, —as thy feet are entering the city, the young man shall die.
Mpo na yo, telema mpe zonga na ndako na yo. Tango kaka okotia makolo na yo kati na engumba na yo, mwana na yo ya mobali akokufa.
13 Then shall all Israel lament for him, and bury him, for, this one, pertaining to Jeroboam, shall reach a burying-place, —because there hath been found in him something good toward Yahweh, God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
Bato nyonso ya Isalaele bakosalela ye matanga mpe bakokunda ye. Ye moko kaka, kati na ndako ya Jeroboami, nde bakokunda; pamba te kati na ndako mobimba ya Jeroboami, ye kaka nde Nzambe amoni na eloko ya malamu oyo esepelisi Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
14 Therefore will Yahweh raise up for himself a king over Israel, who will cut off the house of Jeroboam, this day, but why, even now?
Yawe akobimisa mpo na Ye moko, mokonzi mosusu ya Isalaele oyo akosilisa koboma ndako nyonso ya Jeroboami. Solo, ezali nde mpo na lelo, kaka sik’oyo!
15 Therefore will Yahweh smite Israel, as a reed shaketh in water, and will root out Israel, from off this goodly soil, which he gave unto their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River (Euphrates), —because they have made their Sacred Stems, provoking Yahweh to anger:
Yawe akobeta Isalaele, mpe Isalaele akoningana lokola nzete oyo ebotaka na mayi, oyo mayi ezali koningisa; akopikola Isalaele wuta na mabele ya malamu oyo apesaki na bakoko na ye mpe akopanza bango mosika ya ebale Efrate, pamba te balamusi kanda ya Yawe na kosalaka makonzi ya bule mpo na Ashera.
16 That he may deliver up Israel, —on account of the sin of Jeroboam, which he committed, and which he caused, Israel, to commit.
Akokaba Isalaele mpo na masumu oyo Jeroboami asali mpe asalisi Isalaele.
17 Then arose the wife of Jeroboam, and went her way and entered Tirzah, —as, she, was coming into the entrance hall, the young man died.
Mwasi ya Jeroboami atelemaki, akendeki mpe akomaki na Tiritsa. Tango akomaki na ekuke ya ndako na ye, mwana na ye ya mobali akufaki.
18 And, when they buried him, all Israel lamented him, —according to the word of Yahweh, which he spake through his servant Ahijah the prophet.
Bakundaki ye, mpe Isalaele mobimba basalaki matanga ndenge kaka Yawe alobaki na nzela ya mowumbu na Ye, mosakoli Ayiya.
19 Now, the rest of the story of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold them! written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Misala mosusu ya Jeroboami, bitumba mpe bokonzi na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
20 And, the days which Jeroboam reigned, were twenty-two years, —and he slept with his fathers, and, Nadab his son, reigned, in his stead.
Jeroboami asalaki mibu tuku mibale na mibale na bokonzi, akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye. Nadabi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
21 And, Rehoboam, son of Solomon, reigned in Judah, —forty-one years old, was Rehoboam when he began to reign, and seventeen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, the city which Yahweh had chosen to put his Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and, his mother’s name, was Naamah, the Ammonitess.
Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda; azalaki na mibu tuku minei na moko ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na sambo na Yelusalemi, engumba oyo Yawe aponaki kati na mabota nyonso ya Isalaele mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye. Kombo ya mama na Roboami ezalaki « Naama. » Naama azalaki moto ya Amoni.
22 And Judah did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and provoked him to jealousy, above all that their fathers had done, with their sins which they committed.
Bato ya Yuda basalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Na nzela ya masumu oyo basalaki, balamusaki zuwa ya Nzambe koleka oyo batata na bango basalaki.
23 And, they also, built for themselves high places and pillars, and Sacred Stems, —upon every high hill, and under every green tree.
Batongaki lisusu mpo na bango moko bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, mabanga ya bule, makonzi ya bule mpo na Ashera na likolo ya bangomba nyonso mpe na se ya banzete nyonso ya mobesu.
24 Moreover also, there were, male devotees, in the land, —they did according to all the abominable practices of the nations, which Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
Ezalaki lisusu na mibali oyo bazalaki komipesa na kindumba ya bule kati na mokili ya Yuda: bamipesaki na kosala makambo ya nkele kolanda bikolo ya bapaya oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso ya bato ya Isalaele.
25 And it came to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem;
Tango Roboami akokisaki mibu mitano na bokonzi, Shishaki, mokonzi ya Ejipito, ayaki kobundisa Yelusalemi.
26 and took away the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the house of the king, yea, the whole, took he away, —and took away all the bucklers of gold, which, Solomon, had made.
Azwaki bomengo ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bomengo ya ndako ya mokonzi. Azwaki penza biloko nyonso, ezala banguba nyonso ya wolo oyo Salomo asalisaki.
27 So King Rehoboam made, in their stead, bucklers of bronze, —and committed them unto the hand of the captains of the runners, who kept guard at the entrance of the house of the king.
Boye, na esika ya banguba ya wolo, mokonzi Roboami asalisaki banguba ya bronze mpe apesaki yango epai ya bakonzi ya bakengeli na ye, oyo bazalaki kobatela ekotelo ya ndako ya mokonzi.
28 And so it was, whensoever the king went into the house of Yahweh, the runners bare them, and then brought them back into the chamber of the runners.
Tango nyonso mokonzi abandaki kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe, bakengeli bazalaki komema banguba mpe kozongisa yango kati na ndako ya bakengeli.
29 Now, the rest of the story of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Roboami mpe misala na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
30 And there was, war, between Rehoboam and Jeroboam, continually.
Ezalaki tango nyonso na bitumba kati na Roboami mpe Jeroboami.
31 So then Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David, and, the name of his mother, was Naamah the Ammonitess, —and, Abijah his son, reigned, in his stead.
Roboami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Naama. » Naama azalaki moto ya Amoni. Abiyami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
