< 2 Kings 20 >

1 In those days, was Hezekiah sick, unto death, —and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, came unto him, and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh Set in order thy house, for, about to die, thou, art, and shalt not recover.
Na tango wana, Ezekiasi abelaki bokono moko ya makasi pene akufa. Mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, akendeki epai na ye mpe alobaki: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Bongisa makambo ya ndako na yo, pamba te okokufa, okobika te. »
2 Then he turned his face unto the wall, —and prayed unto Yahweh, saying:
Ezekiasi abalolaki elongi na ye na mir mpe abondelaki Yawe:
3 I beseech thee, O Yahweh, remember, I pray thee, how I have walked before thee, in truth, and with a whole heart, and, that which is good in thine eyes, have I done! And Hezekiah wept aloud.
— Oh Yawe, kanisa ndenge nini natambolaki liboso na Yo na boyengebene, ndenge nini namipesaki epai na Yo na motema na ngai mobimba, mpe ndenge nini nasalaki makambo ya malamu na miso na Yo. Mpe Ezekiasi alelaki mingi.
4 And it came to pass that Isaiah, had not gone out into the middle court, when the word of Yahweh came unto him, saying:
Liboso ete Ezayi akoma na lopango ya monene, Yawe alobaki na ye:
5 Return, and thou shalt say unto Hezekiah the leader of my people—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears, —Behold me! about to heal thee, On the third day, shalt thou go up unto the house of Yahweh;
— Zonga epai ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya bato na Ngai, mpe loba na ye: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya tata na yo, Davidi, alobi: ‹ Nayoki libondeli na yo mpe namoni mpinzoli na yo. Tala, nakobikisa yo; mpe sima na lobi, okomata lisusu na Tempelo ya Yawe.
6 And I will add unto thy days, fifteen years, and, out of the hand of the king of Assyria, will I deliver thee, and this city, —and will throw a covering over this city, for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.
Nakobakisa mibu zomi na mitano na mikolo ya bomoi na yo. Nakokangola yo elongo na engumba oyo, wuta na maboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri, mpe nakobatela yango mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai mpe mpo na Davidi, mosali na Ngai. › »
7 And Isaiah said—Take ye a cake of figs. So they took and laid it upon the boil, and he recovered,
Ezayi alobaki: — Bozwa liboke ya figi. Bazwaki yango, batiaki yango na pota oyo ezalaki kokawuka te, mpe mokonzi abikaki.
8 Now Hezekiah had said unto Isaiah, What sign is there, that Yahweh will heal me, —and that I shall go up on the third day, to the house of Yahweh?
Ezekiasi atunaki Ezayi: — Elembo nini ekolakisa ngai ete Yawe akobikisa ngai, mpe ete nakokende na Tempelo ya Yawe sima na lobi?
9 And Isaiah said, —This unto thee, is the sign from Yahweh, that Yahweh will do the thing which he hath spoken, The shadow hath gone forward ten steps, shall it return ten steps?
Ezayi azongisaki: — Tala elembo oyo Yawe apesi yo mpo na kotalisa ete akokokisa makambo oyo alaki yo: Olingi ete elilingi ekende liboso, na matambe zomi to ezonga sima na matambe zomi?
10 And Hezekiah said—It is, a light thing, for the shadow, to decline ten steps, —Nay, but let the shadow go back ten steps.
Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Ezali pasi te ete elilingi ekende liboso, na matambe zomi; zongisa yango nde na sima, na matambe zomi.
11 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto Yahweh, and he caused the shadow on the steps by which it had gone down on the steps of Ahaz to go back, ten steps.
Bongo mosakoli Ezayi abelelaki Yawe, mpe Yawe azongisaki elilingi sima, na matambe zomi, kolanda ematelo ya Akazi.
12 At that time, Berodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present, unto Hezekiah, —for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
Na tango wana, Merodaki-Baladani, mwana mobali ya Baladani, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atindaki mokanda mpe kado epai ya Ezekiasi, pamba te ayokaki sango ete Ezekiasi abelaki.
13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all his house of precious things—the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and his armoury, and all that was found among his treasures, —there was, nothing, that Hezekiah shewed them not, in his house or in all his dominion.
Ezekiasi ayambaki bantoma na esengo mpe alakisaki bibombelo biloko na ye ya motuya lokola palata mpe wolo, biloko ya mike-mike ya solo kitoko, mafuta ya kitoko, bibundeli na ye nyonso, mpe bomengo na ye nyonso. Ezalaki na eloko moko te, ezala ya ndako na ye to ya mokili na ye mobimba, oyo azangaki kolakisa bango.
14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto King Hezekiah, —and said unto him—What said these men, and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a land far off, came they—from Babylon.
Bongo mosakoli Ezayi akendeki epai ya mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe atunaki ye: — Bato wana balobi nini mpe bawuti wapi? Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Bawuti mosika, na mokili ya Babiloni.
15 And he said—What have they seen in thy house? Then said Hezekiah—All that is in my house, have they seen, there was, nothing, that I shewed them not, among my treasures.
Ezayi atunaki: — Bamoni eloko nini kati na ndako na yo ya bokonzi? Ezekiasi azongisaki: — Bamoni biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na ndako na ngai; ezali na eloko moko te, kati na bibombelo na ngai, oyo nazangi kolakisa bango.
16 Then said Isaiah unto Hezekiah, —Hear thou the word of Yahweh:
Ezayi alobaki na Ezekiasi: — Yoka liloba oyo Yawe alobi:
17 Lo! days are coming, when all that is in thine house, and that thy fathers have treasured up, unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon, —nothing shall be left, saith Yahweh;
« Solo, na mikolo ekoya, nyonso oyo ezali kati na ndako na yo, mpe nyonso oyo batata na yo babomba kino na mokolo ya lelo, bakomema yango na Babiloni, eloko moko te ekotikala, elobi Yawe.
18 and, of thy sons who shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away, —and they shall become eunuchs, in the palace of the king of Babylon.
Mingi kati na bakitani na yo, kati na ba-oyo babimi penza na mokongo na yo, bakomema bango mpe bakoboma bango mikongo mpo ete bakoma kosala kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Babiloni. »
19 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah—Good, is the word of Yahweh, which thou hast spoken. And he said—Is it not, that, peace and stability, there shall be in my days?
Ezekiasi azongiselaki Ezayi: — Liloba na Yawe, oyo osili koloba ezali malamu. Pamba te azalaki komilobela: « Boni, kimia mpe bobatelami ekozala penza na mikolo ya bomoi na ngai? »
20 Now, the rest of the story of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool and an aqueduct, and brought water into the city, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali Ezekiasi, misala na ye nyonso ya nguya mpe ndenge asalaki liziba mpe nzela ya se ya mabele oyo amemaki mayi kino na engumba, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
21 So Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and, Manasseh his son, reigned, in his stead.
Ezekiasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye. Manase, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
