1 Kings 12
1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
Roboami akendeki na Sishemi epai wapi lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele esanganaki mpo na kokomisa ye mokonzi.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was yet in Egypt, heard [of it], (for he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt; )
Kasi sima na Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, koyoka sango yango wuta na Ejipito epai wapi akendeki kobombama mpo na kokima mokonzi Salomo, azongaki wuta na Ejipito.
3 That they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came, and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
Boye, batindaki bato kobenga Jeroboami; bongo ye elongo na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele bakendeki epai ya Roboami mpe balobaki na ye:
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
— Tata na yo anyokolaki biso makasi; kasi sik’oyo, yo, lembisa misala makasi mpe mikumba oyo tata na yo atia na mito na biso; bongo biso, tokosalela yo.
5 And he said to them, Depart yet [for] three days, then come again to me. And the people departed.
Roboami azongisaki: — Bokende epai na bino, bopesa ngai mikolo misato mpo na koyekola likambo yango, bongo bozongela ngai. Mpe bato bakendeki.
6 And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people?
Mokonzi Roboami atunaki toli epai ya bampaka oyo basalaki elongo na Salomo, tata na ye, tango azalaki nanu na bomoi. Alobaki na bango: — Toli nini bozali kopesa ngai lokola eyano ya kopesa epai ya bato oyo?
7 And they spoke to him, saying, If thou wilt be a servant to this people this day, and wilt serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever.
Bazongiselaki ye: — Soki, na mokolo ya lelo, omikomisi mosali ya bato oyo, soki osaleli bango mpe opesi bango eyano ya malamu, bakozala tango nyonso basali na yo.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that had grown up with him, [and] who stood before him:
Kasi Roboami aboyaki toli oyo bampaka bapesaki ye; asengaki toli epai ya bilenge mibali oyo bakolaki esika moko na ye mpe bazalaki kosalela ye.
9 And he said to them, What counsel give ye that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put upon us lighter?
Atunaki bango: — Toli nini bozali kopesa lokola eyano ya kopesa epai ya bato oyo balobi na ngai: « Lembisa misala makasi mpe mikumba oyo tata na yo atia na mito na biso? »
10 And the young men that had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak to this people who spoke to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou [it] lighter to us; thus shalt thou say to them, My little [finger] shall be thicker than my father's loins.
Bilenge mibali oyo bakolaki esika moko na ye bazongisaki: — Tala makambo oyo okoyebisa bato oyo balobi na yo: « Tata na yo anyokolaki biso na misala makasi; kasi yo, lembisela biso yango! » Yebisa bango: « Mosapi na ngai ya moke eleki loketo ya tata na ngai na monene;
11 And now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father hath chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
soki tata na ngai anyokolaki bino na misala makasi, ngai, nakoyeisa yango lisusu makasi koleka; soki tata na ngai azalaki kobeta bino fimbu ya poso ya nyama, ngai nakobeta bino fimbu ya ebende. »
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
Sima na mikolo misato, Jeroboami elongo na bato nyonso bazongaki epai ya Roboami, ndenge mokonzi ayebisaki bango: « Bozongela ngai sima na mikolo misato. »
13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men's counsel that they gave him;
Mokonzi Roboami aboyaki kosalela toli oyo bampaka bapesaki ye, ayanolaki bato na maloba mabe makasi;
14 And spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father [also] chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
alandaki toli ya bilenge mibali mpe ayebisaki bango: Soki tata na ngai anyokolaki bino na misala makasi, ngai nakoyeisa yango lisusu makasi koleka; soki tata na ngai azalaki kobeta bino fimbu ya poso ya nyama, ngai nakobeta bino fimbu ya ebende.
15 Wherefore the king hearkened not to the people; for the cause was from the LORD, that he might perform his saying, which the LORD spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Mokonzi aboyaki koyoka bato, pamba te ezalaki Yawe nde asalaki bongo mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo Yawe ayebisaki Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, na nzela ya mosakoli Ayiya, moto ya Silo.
16 So when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not to them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither [have we] inheritance in the son of Jesse: to your tents, O Israel: now see to thy own house, David. So Israel departed to their tents.
Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bamonaki ete mokonzi aboyi koyoka bango, bazongiselaki ye: « Eloko nini ya lisanga tozali na yango na Davidi? Tozali na eloko moko te ya lisanga na mwana mobali ya Izayi! Isalaele, tika ete moto na moto azonga na ndako na ye ya kapo! Mpe yo, mokitani ya Davidi, tikala kotala makambo ya ndako na yo! » Boye, bana ya Isalaele bazongaki na bandako na bango ya kapo.
17 But [as for] the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
Roboami akobaki kokonza bana ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kovanda na bingumba ya Yuda.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who [was] over the tribute; and all Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. Therefore king Rehoboam made speed to enter his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Mokonzi Roboami atindaki Adorami oyo azalaki motambolisi misala makasi, kasi bana nyonso ya Isalaele babambaki ye mabanga mpe akufaki. Nzokande, mokonzi Roboami alongaki komata na shar na ye mpo na kokima na Yelusalemi.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
Ezali boye nde bana ya Isalaele batombokelaki ndako ya Davidi kino na mokolo ya lelo.
20 And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had come again, that they sent and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bayokaki ete Jeroboami azongi, batindaki bato kobenga ye ete aya na mayangani, mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi ya Isalaele mobimba. Kaka libota ya Yuda nde etikalaki kotosa bokonzi ya ndako ya Davidi.
21 And when Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah, with the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men, who were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
Tango Roboami azongaki na Yelusalemi, asangisaki libota nyonso ya Yuda mpe libota ya Benjame, aponaki kati na bango bilombe ya bitumba nkoto nkama moko na tuku mwambe mpo na kobundisa ndako ya Isalaele mpe kozongisa bokonzi na maboko ya Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo.
22 But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Kasi Nzambe alobaki na Shemaya, moto na Nzambe:
23 Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
« Yebisa Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo, mokonzi ya Yuda; mpe bana nyonso ya Yuda, ya Benjame mpe ba-oyo batikali:
24 Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. They hearkened therefore to the word of the LORD, and returned to depart, according to the word of the LORD.
‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Bokende te kobundisa bandeko na bino, bato ya Isalaele! Tika ete moto moko na moko azonga na ndako na ye, pamba te Ngai moko nde nasali makambo nyonso oyo eleki. › » Batosaki Liloba na Yawe mpe bazongaki na bandako na bango mpo na kotosa mitindo ya Yawe.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt in it, and went out from thence, and built Penuel.
Jeroboami atongaki engumba Sishemi, kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi, mpe avandaki kuna. Longwa na Sishemi, abimaki mpe akendeki kotonga Penueli.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David:
Jeroboami amilobelaki: « Ndenge makambo ezali kotambola, bokonzi ekoki kozonga na ndako ya Davidi.
27 If this people go up to perform sacrifice in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again to their lord, [even] to Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.
Soki bato oyo bamati na Yelusalemi mpo na kobonza mbeka na Tempelo ya Yawe, bakopesa lisusu mitema na bango epai ya nkolo na bango, Roboami, mokonzi ya Yuda. Bakoboma ngai mpe bakozonga epai ya mokonzi Roboami. »
28 Upon which the king took counsel, and made two calves [of] gold, and said to them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Sima na ye koluka toli, mokonzi asalaki bikeko mibale ya bana ngombe ya wolo. Alobaki na bato: — Oh Isalaele, bokeyi mpe mingi na Yelusalemi! Botala banzambe na bino oyo babimisaki bino na Ejipito.
29 And he set the one in Beth-el, and the other he placed in Dan.
Jeroboami atiaki ekeko moko na Beteli mpe mosusu na Dani.
30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went [to worship] before the one, [even] to Dan.
Bongo likambo oyo ememaki bato na lisumu, pamba te bamoko bazalaki kokende kogumbamela ekeko oyo ezalaki na Beteli, mpe bamosusu bazalaki kokende mosika kino na Dani mpo na kogumbamela ekeko mosusu.
31 And he made a house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Jeroboami atongaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe atiaki banganga-nzambe oyo bazalaki ata te bato ya libota ya Levi.
32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast that [is] in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Beth-el, sacrificing to the calves that he had made: and he placed in Beth-el the priests of the high places which he had made.
Jeroboami akataki ete basalaka feti mibu nyonso na mokolo ya zomi na mitano ya sanza ya mwambe ndenge basalaka na mokili ya Yuda, mpe abonzaki mbeka na etumbelo. Asalaki ndenge wana na Beteli epai wapi abonzaki mbeka epai ya banzambe ya bikeko ya bana ngombe oyo asalaki, mpe atiaki banganga-nzambe na bisambelo oyo abongisaki na likolo ya bangomba.
33 So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Beth-el the fifteenth day of the eighth month, [even] in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast to the children of Israel: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.
Na mokolo ya zomi na mitano ya sanza ya mwambe, sanza oyo aponaki na ndenge na ye moko, abonzaki mbeka na etumbelo oyo atongaki na Beteli. Akataki ete basalaka feti mibu nyonso mpo na bana ya Isalaele mpe amataki na etumbelo mpo na kotumba ansa.
