< 2 Kings 10 >

1 Now, Ahab, had seventy sons in Samaria, —so Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel—the elders, and unto them who had been foster-parents for Ahab, saying:
Akabi azalaki na bana mibali tuku sambo na Samari. Jewu akomaki mikanda mpe atindaki yango na Samari epai ya bakalaka ya Jizireyeli, epai ya bampaka mpe epai ya babateli ya bana ya Akabi. Na mikanda yango, Jewu alobaki:
2 Now, therefore, when this letter cometh in unto you, there being, with you, the sons of your lord, —and, with you, the chariots and the homes, and a fortified city, and the armour,
« Tango kaka mokanda oyo ekokomela bino, lokola bana mibali ya mokonzi na bino bazali elongo na bino, mpe lokola bozali na bashar mpe bampunda, engumba ya makasi mpe bibundeli,
3 ye shall look out the goodliest and fittest of the sons of your lord, and set on the throne of his father, and ye shall do battle for the house of your lord.
bopona mwana mobali oyo aleki malamu mpe mayele kati na bana mibali ya mokonzi na bino, botia ye na kiti ya bokonzi ya tata na ye, mpe bobunda mpo na ndako ya mokonzi na bino. »
4 Then feared they very greatly, and said, Lo! two kings, stood not before him; how then, should, we, stand?
Kasi babangaki makasi mpe balobaki: « Soki kutu bakonzi mibale bakokaki te kobunda na ye, bongo ndenge nini biso tokobunda na ye? »
5 So he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, and the elders, and the foster-parents sent unto Jehu, saying—Thy servants, we are! and, all that thou shalt say unto us, will we do, —we will make no man king, whatsoever is good in thine own eyes, do!
Boye, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, moyangeli ya engumba, bampaka mpe babateli ya bana ya mokonzi batindaki sango oyo epai ya Jewu: « Tozali basali na yo mpe tokosala nyonso oyo okoloba. Tokotia moto mosusu te lokola mokonzi, tokosala nyonso oyo okomona malamu. »
6 Then wrote he unto them a second letter, saying—If, mine, ye are, and, unto my voice, ye intend to hearken, take ye the heads of the men who are sons of your lord, and come in unto me about this time to-morrow, in Jezreel. Now, the sons of the king, seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who had been bringing them up.
Boye, Jewu akomelaki bango mokanda ya mibale oyo kati na yango alobaki: « Soki bozali na ngambo na ngai mpe bokotosa ngai, bozwa mito ya bana mibali nyonso ya mokonzi na bino mpe boya na yango epai na ngai, na Jizireyeli, lobi na tongo. » Nzokande bana mibali tuku sambo ya mokonzi bazalaki epai ya bato ya lokumu ya engumba, oyo bazalaki kobokola bango.
7 And it came to pass, when the letter reached them, that they took the sons of the king, and slew them, seventy persons, —and put their heads in baskets, and sent unto him to Jezreel.
Tango mokanda ekomaki, bato wana bazwaki bana mibali ya mokonzi, babomaki bango nyonso tuku sambo, batiaki mito na bango na bitunga mpe batindaki yango epai ya Jewu, na Jizireyeli.
8 And there came in a messenger and told him, saying, They have brought in the heads of the sons of the king. And he said—Lay ye them in two heaps, at the entrance of the gate, until the morning.
Ntoma moko akomaki mpe alobaki na Jewu: — Bamemi mito ya bana mibali ya mokonzi. Bongo Jewu apesaki mitindo: — Botia yango na mipiku mibale na ekuke ya engumba kino na tongo.
9 And it came to pass, in the morning, that he went out and took his stand, and said unto all the people, Righteous, are, ye! Lo! I, conspired against my lord, and slew him, but, who, smote, all these?
Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Jewu abimaki, atelemaki liboso ya bato nyonso mpe alobaki: — Bosali na bino mabe te. Ezalaki ngai nde nasalelaki nkolo na ngai likita mpo na kotelemela ye mpe koboma ye; kasi nani abomi bato oyo nyonso?
10 Know ye, then, that there shall fall nought of the word of Yahweh, to the ground, which Yahweh spake concerning the house of Ahab, —but, Yahweh, hath done that which he spake through his servant Elijah.
Boyeba ete liloba moko te oyo Yawe alobaki mpo na kotelemela ndako ya Akabi ekozanga kokokisama. Yawe akokisi makambo oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosali na Ye, Eliya.
11 Then Jehu smote all that were left remaining unto the house of Ahab, in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances and his priests, —until there was not left remaining to him, a survivor.
Boye Jewu abomaki bato nyonso ya ndako ya Akabi, oyo batikalaki na Jizireyeli: bato na ye nyonso ya lokumu, baninga na ye, Banganga-Nzambe na ye. Atikaki ata moto na ye moko te na bomoi.
12 Then arose he, and came in, and departed for Samaria, —the sheep-shearing house itself being on the road;
Jewu atelemaki mpe akendeki na Samari. Na Beti-Ekedi-Aron,
13 so, Jehu, lighted upon the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are, ye? And they said—Brethren of Ahaziah, are, we; so we came down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.
Jewu akutanaki na bandeko ya Akazia, mokonzi ya kala ya Yuda, mpe atunaki bango: — Bozali banani? Bazongisaki: — Tozali bandeko ya Akazia. Toyei kopesa bana mibali ya mokonzi mpe mama ya mokonzi mbote.
14 Then said he, —Take them alive. So they took them alive, and slew them [casting them] into the pit of the shearing house, —forty-two men, neither left he remaining a man of them.
Jewu apesaki mitindo: — Bokanga bango ya bomoi. Boye bakangaki bango ya bomoi mpe bakataki bango bakingo, pene ya libulu ya Beti-Ekedi. Bazalaki mibali tuku minei na mibale, mpe Jewu atikaki moto moko te na bomoi.
15 Then departed he from thence, and lighted on Jehonadab son of Rechab coming to meet him, and he blessed him, and said unto him—Is thy heart, right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab said—It is. Then, if it is, give me thy hand. So he gave him his hand. And he took him up to him, into the chariot;
Tango alongwaki kuna mpe akutanaki na Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, oyo abandaki koya kokutana na ye, Jewu apesaki ye mbote mpe alobaki: — Boni, motema na yo ezali sembo mpo na ngai, ndenge motema na ngai ezali mpo na yo? Yonadabi azongisaki: — Iyo, ezali bongo! Jewu alobaki: — Soki ezali bongo, pesa ngai loboko na yo. Boye, Yonadabi asalaki bongo, mpe Jewu asungaki ye mpo na komata na shar.
16 and said—Do come with me, and see my jealousy for Yahweh. So he made him ride in his chariot.
Jewu alobaki: — Yaka elongo na ngai, mpe okomona bolingo makasi na ngai mpo na Yawe. Boye, Jewu amemaki ye na shar na ye.
17 And, when he came into Samaria, he smote all that were left remaining unto Ahab, in Samaria, until he had destroyed him, —according to the word of Yahweh, which he had spoken unto Elijah.
Tango Jewu akomaki na Samari, abomaki bato nyonso ya libota ya Akabi, oyo batikalaki kuna. Jewu abomaki bango kolanda Liloba na Yawe oyo alobaki na nzela ya Eliya.
18 Then Jehu gathered together all the people, and said unto them, —Ahab, served Baal, a little, —Jehu, will serve him, much.
Jewu abengisaki bato nyonso mpe alobaki na bango: « Akabi azalaki kosalela Bala mingi te, kasi Jewu akosalela ye mingi.
19 Now, therefore, all the prophets of Baal, all his servants and all his priests, call ye for me; do not let, a man, be missing; for, a great sacrifice, have I, to Baal, no one that is missing, shall live. But, Jehu, acted, craftily, to the end he might destroy the servants of Baal.
Sik’oyo, bobengisa basakoli nyonso ya Bala, basambeli na ye nyonso mpe banganga-nzambe na ye nyonso. Bosala ete moto moko te azanga, pamba te nakobonza mbeka ya monene mpo na Bala. Moto nyonso oyo akozanga, akokufa. » Jewu asalelaki mayele mabe mpo na koboma basambeli ya Bala.
20 And Jehu said—Hallow ye a solemn festival unto Baal. And they made proclamation.
Jewu alobaki: « Bobengisa mayangani mpo na lokumu ya Bala. » Boye babengisaki mayangani yango.
21 And Jehu sent throughout all Israel, and all the servants of Baal came in, so that there was not left remaining a man, who had not come in, —and they entered the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was filled, from door to door.
Jewu apanzaki sango kati na Isalaele, basambeli nyonso ya Bala bayaki mpe moto moko te azangaki. Bakotaki ebele na ndako ya nzambe Bala mpe batondisaki yango kino na basuka nyonso.
22 Then said he to him who was over the wardrobe chamber, Bring forth vestments for all the servants of Baal. And he brought forth for them the vestments.
Jewu alobaki na mobateli bilamba ya bonganga-nzambe ya Bala: « Yaka na bilamba mpo na basambeli nyonso ya Bala. » Boye abimisaki bilamba mpo na bango.
23 Then entered Jehu, with Jehonadab son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, —and he said unto the servants of Baal—Search ye and see, that there be not here, with you, any of the servants of Yahweh, none but the servants of Baal, alone.
Bongo Jewu elongo na Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, bakotaki na ndako ya nzambe Bala. Jewu alobaki na basambeli ya Bala: « Botala malamu-malamu na zingazinga na bino mpo ete basali ya Yawe bazala elongo na bino te, kaka basali ya Bala. »
24 And, when they entered to offer sacrifices and ascending-offerings, Jehu, set him, outside, eighty men, and said—The man who shall escape, of the men whom I am bringing into your power, his own life, shall be for, his life.
Bakotaki mpo na kobongisa bambeka mpe batumbaki yango. Nzokande, Jewu atiaki bato tuku mwambe libanda na likebisi oyo: « Soki moto moko kati na bino akimisi moko kati na bato oyo napesi na maboko na bino, akofuta bomoi na ye na motuya ya bomoi ya moto oyo akimi. »
25 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the ascending-sacrifice, that Jehu said to the runners and to the officers—Enter, smite them, let not, a man, get out. So they smote them, with the edge of the sword, —and the runners and the officers cast them out, and then went as far as the city of the house of Baal,
Tango kaka Jewu asilisaki kobongisa mbeka ya kotumba, apesaki mitindo epai na bakengeli mpe na bakambi na bango: « Bokota mpe boboma bango. Bokimisa moto moko te. » Boye, babomaki bango na mopanga. Bakengeli mpe bakonzi ya basoda babwakaki bibembe na libanda mpe bakotaki kino na esika ya bule ya ndako ya nzambe Bala.
26 and brought forth the idolatrous pillars that were in the house of Baal, and then burned it;
Babimisaki libanga ya bule na libanda ya ndako ya nzambe Bala mpe batumbaki yango.
27 and they brake down the pillars of Baal, —and brake down the house of Baal, and appointed it for a sewer-house—until this day.
Babukaki libanga yango ya bule, bakweyisaki ndako ya nzambe Bala mpe bakomisaki yango zongo kino na mokolo ya lelo.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
Ezali bongo nde Jewu asukisaki losambo ya Bala kati na Isalaele.
29 Nevertheless, as for the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he caused, Israel, to commit, Jehu turned not away from following them, —the calves of gold, one being in Bethel, and the other in Dan.
Kasi Jewu atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, oyo, na nzela na yango, akweyisaki Isalaele na lisumu. Lisumu yango ezali: kosambela bikeko ya bangombe ya wolo, na Beteli mpe na Dani.
30 And Yahweh said unto Jehu: Because thou hast done well, by doing that which was right in mine eyes—according to all that was in my heart, hast done to the house of Ahab, sons, of thine, unto the fourth generation, shall sit upon the throne of Israel.
Yawe alobaki na Jewu: « Lokola osali malamu mpo na kokokisa oyo ezali sembo na miso na Ngai, mpe lokola osali na libota ya Akabi nyonso oyo nakanaki kosala, bakitani na yo bakovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya Isalaele kino na molongo ya minei. »
31 But, Jehu, took not heed to walk in the law of Yahweh God of Israel, with all his heart, —he turned not away from the sins of Jeroboam, which he caused, Israel, to commit.
Nzokande, Jewu asalaki bokebi te mpo na kobatela mibeko ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, na motema na ye mobimba. Atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami oyo, na nzela na yango, akweyisaki Isalaele na lisumu.
32 In those days, began Yahweh to make inroads in Israel, —and Hazael smote them in all the boundaries of Israel;
Na tango wana, Yawe abandaki kokomisa moke bandelo ya Isalaele. Azaeli alongaki bana ya Isalaele, na mokili na bango,
33 from the Jordan, towards sunrise, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, —from Aroer, which is by the torrent of Arnon, both Gilead and Bashan.
na este ya Yordani, na etuka nyonso ya Galadi (mabele ya libota ya Gadi, ya Ribeni mpe ya Manase), longwa na Aroeri oyo ezali pembeni ya moluka ya Arinoni kino na Galadi mpe Bashani.
34 Now, the rest of the story of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jewu, misala na ye nyonso mpe elonga na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria, —and, Jehoahaz his son, reigned, in his stead.
Jewu akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Samari. Bongo Yoakazi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
36 Now, the days that Jehu reigned over Israel, were twenty-eight years, in Samaria.
Jewu akonzaki Isalaele, na Samari mibu tuku mibale na mwambe.
