< Isaiah 39 >
1 At that time, Merodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah, —for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick, and had recovered.
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 mpe abikaki.
2 And Hezekiah, rejoiced over them, and showed them his house of precious things—the silver and the gold and the spices and the precious ointment and all his armoury—and all that was found among his treasures, —there was nothing, which Hezekiah, did not show them—in his house or in all his dominion.
Ezekiasi ayambaki bantoma wana 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.
3 Then came Isaiah the prophet, unto King Hezekiah, —and said unto him—What said these men? and whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a land far away, came they unto me, from Babylon!
Boye, 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, mpo na koya kotala ngai.
4 And he said, What have they seen in thy house? Then said Hezekiah, —All that is in my house, have they seen, there is nothing which I shewed them not among my treasures.
Ezayi atunaki: — Bamoni eloko nini kati na ndako na yo? 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.
5 Then said Isaiah unto Hezekiah, —Hear thou the word of Yahweh of hosts:
Ezayi alobaki na Ezekiasi: — Yoka liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi:
6 Lo! days are coming, when all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have treasured up until this day, shall be carried away unto Babylon, —nothing, shall be left, Saith Yahweh.
« Solo, na mikolo oyo 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.
7 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. »
8 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, Good is the word of Yahweh, which thou hast spoken. And he said, Surely, there shall be peace and stability in my days.
Ezekiasi azongiselaki Ezayi: — Liloba na Yawe oyo osili koloba ezali malamu. Pamba te azalaki komilobela: « Kimia mpe bobatelami ekozala penza na mikolo ya bomoi na ngai. »
