1 Kings 22
1 And they sit still three years, there is no war between Aram and Israel,
Bitumba ezalaki te kati ya Isalaele mpe Siri mibu misato.
2 and it cometh to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah cometh down unto the king of Israel,
Kasi na mobu ya misato, Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, akendeki kotala mokonzi ya Isalaele.
3 and the king of Israel saith unto his servants, 'Have ye not known that ours [is] Ramoth-Gilead? and we are keeping silent from taking it out of the hand of the king of Aram!'
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na bakalaka na ye: « Boyebi malamu ete Ramoti ya Galadi ezalaka ya biso! Nzokande, tosalaka eloko moko te mpo na kobotola yango na maboko ya mokonzi ya Siri. »
4 And he saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Dost thou go with me to battle [to] Ramoth-Gilead?' and Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, 'As I am, so thou; as my people, so thy people; as my horses, so thy horses.'
Alobaki mpe na Jozafati: — Boni, okoki solo kosepela kokende elongo na ngai mpo na kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi? Jozafati azongiselaki mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Ngai mpe yo, bato na ngai mpe bato na yo, tozali se moko, ezala bampunda na ngai mpe bampunda na yo.
5 And Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, 'Seek, I pray thee, to-day, the word of Jehovah;'
Jozafati alobaki lisusu na mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Nabondeli yo, tuna nanu toli ya Yawe.
6 and the king of Israel gathereth the prophets, about four hundred men, and saith unto them, 'Do I go against Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I forbear?' and they say, 'Go up, and the Lord doth give [it] into the hand of the king.'
Boye mokonzi ya Isalaele asangisaki basakoli pene nkama minei mpe atunaki bango: — Nakoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Bazongiselaki ye: — Kende, pamba te Nkolo akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi.
7 And Jehoshaphat saith, 'Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah besides, and we seek by him?'
Kasi Jozafati atunaki lisusu: — Ezali lisusu na mosakoli moko te awa oyo na nzela na ye tokoki kotuna toli ya Yawe?
8 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Yet — one man to seek Jehovah by him, and I have hated him, for he doth not prophesy concerning me good, but evil — Micaiah son of Imlah;' and Jehoshaphat saith, 'Let not the king say so.'
Mokonzi ya Isalaele azongiselaki Jozafati: — Ezali lisusu na moto moko oyo na nzela na ye tokoki kotuna toli ya Yawe, kasi ngai nalingaka ye te; pamba te asakolaka makambo ya malamu te mpo na bomoi na ngai, asakolaka kaka makambo ya mabe. Ezali Mishe, mwana mobali ya Yimila. Jozafati alobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi aloba bongo te!
9 And the king of Israel calleth unto a certain eunuch, and saith, 'Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.'
Bongo, mokonzi ya Isalaele abengaki moko kati na bakalaka na ye ya lokumu mpe alobaki na ye: « Memela ngai na lombangu Mishe, mwana mobali ya Yimila. »
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, in a threshing-floor, at the opening of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, balataki bilamba na bango ya bokonzi mpe bavandaki na bakiti na bango ya bokonzi, na etando ya ekotelo ya ekuke ya Samari. Mpe basakoli nyonso bazalaki kosakola liboso na bango.
11 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah maketh for himself horns of iron, and saith, 'Thus said Jehovah, By these thou dost push the Aramaeans till they are consumed;'
Nzokande moko kati na bango, Sedesiasi, mwana mobali ya Kenaana, asalisaki maseke ya ebende mpe alobaki: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Na maseke oyo okobeta bato ya Siri kino okosilisa koboma bango. › »
12 and all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, 'Go up to Ramoth-Gilead, and prosper, and Jehovah hath given [it] into the hand of the king.'
Basakoli nyonso bazalaki koloba kaka liloba moko: « Kende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi, okolonga; pamba te Yawe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi. »
13 And the messenger who hath gone to call Micaiah hath spoken unto him, saying, 'Lo, I pray thee, the words of the prophets, with one mouth, [are] good towards the king; let it be, I pray thee, thy word as the word of one of them — and thou hast spoken good.'
Ntoma oyo akendeki kobenga Mishe alobaki na ye: — Tala, basakoli nyonso bazali koloba liloba kaka moko mpo na kosakola elonga mpo na mokonzi. Boye, tika ete maloba na yo ekokana na maloba na bango: sakola elonga mpo na mokonzi!
14 And Micaiah saith, 'Jehovah liveth; surely that which Jehovah saith unto me — it I speak.'
Kasi Mishe azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe, makambo oyo Yawe akoloba na ngai, yango nde nakoloba.
15 And he cometh in unto the king, and the king saith unto him, 'Micaiah, do we go unto Ramoth-Gilead, to battle, or do we forbear?' and he saith unto him, 'Go up, and prosper, and Jehovah hath given [it] into the hand of the king.'
Tango akomaki epai ya mokonzi, mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Mishe, tokoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Mishe azongisaki: — Kende! Okolonga! Yawe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi.
16 And the king saith unto him, 'How many times am I adjuring thee that thou speak nothing unto me but truth in the name of Jehovah?'
Kasi mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Nakolapisa yo ndayi mbala boni mpo ete oloba na ngai kaka bosolo, na Kombo na Yawe?
17 And he saith, 'I have seen all Israel scattered on the hills as sheep that have no shepherd, and Jehovah saith, These have no master; they turn back each to his house in peace.'
Mishe azongisaki: — Namoni bato nyonso ya Isalaele bapalangani na bangomba lokola etonga ya bibwele oyo ezangi mobateli. Mpe Yawe alobi: « Bato oyo bazali lisusu na bakambi te; tika ete moko na moko azonga na ndako na ye na kimia! »
18 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Have I not said unto thee, He doth not prophesy of me good, but evil?'
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na Jozafati: — Nayebisaki yo te ete asakolaka makambo ya malamu te mpo na bomoi na ngai; asakolaka kaka makambo ya mabe!
19 And he saith, 'Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah; I have seen Jehovah sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing by Him, on His right and on His left;
Mishe alobaki: — Solo, yoka nde makambo oyo Yawe alobi! Ngai namoni Yawe avandi na Kiti na Ye ya bokonzi, wana mampinga nyonso ya likolo ezingeli Ye, na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mwasi.
20 and Jehovah saith, Who doth entice Ahab, and he doth go up and fall in Ramoth-Gilead? and this one saith thus, and that one is saying thus.
Yawe atuni: « Nani akokosa Akabi mpo ete akende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi mpe akufa kuna? » Bazongisaki, moko na moko na ndenge na ye.
21 'And the spirit goeth out, and standeth before Jehovah, and saith, I — I do entice him; and Jehovah saith unto him, By what?
Mpe na suka na nyonso, molimo moko epusanaki, etelemaki liboso ya Yawe mpe elobaki: « Ngai oyo! Nakokosa ye. » Yawe atunaki molimo yango: « Okosala yango ndenge nini? »
22 and he saith, I go out, and have been a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets; and He saith, Thou dost entice, and also thou art able; go out and do so.
Molimo yango ezongisaki: « Nakokende mpe nakobongwana molimo ya lokuta kati na minoko ya basakoli na ye nyonso. » Yawe alobaki: « Solo, okolonga kokosa ye! Kende mpe sala bongo. »
23 And now, lo, Jehovah hath put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and Jehovah hath spoken concerning thee — evil.'
Mpe sik’oyo, tala, Yawe atie molimo ya lokuta kati na minoko ya basakoli na yo oyo nyonso; Yawe azwi penza mokano ya koboma yo!
24 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah draweth nigh, and smiteth Micaiah on the cheek, and saith, 'Where [is] this — he hath passed over — the Spirit of Jehovah — from me to speak with thee?'
Bongo Sedesiasi, mwana mobali ya Kenaana, apusanaki, apapolaki Mishe mbata na litama mpe alobaki: — Molimo na Yawe abimi kati na ngai na nzela nini mpo ete aya koloba na yo?
25 And Micaiah saith, 'Lo, thou art seeing on that day, when thou goest in to the innermost chamber to be hidden.'
Mishe azongisaki: — Okososola yango kaka na mokolo oyo okokima mpe okotambola na shambre moko na moko mpo na koluka kobombama.
26 And the king of Israel saith, 'Take Micaiah, and turn him back unto Amon head of the city, and unto Joash son of the king,
Mbala moko, mokonzi ya Isalaele apesaki mitindo: — Bokanga Mishe mpe bomema ye epai ya Amoni, moyangeli ya engumba, mpe epai ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya mokonzi.
27 and thou hast said, Thus said the king, Place ye this one in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, till my coming in peace.'
Boloba na bango: « Tala makambo oyo mokonzi alobi: ‹ Bobwaka moto oyo na boloko mpe bopesa ye bilei mosusu te, kaka lipa mpe mayi kino tango nakozonga na kimia. › »
28 And Micaiah saith, 'If thou at all return in peace — Jehovah hath not spoken by me;' and he saith, 'Hear, O peoples, all of them.'
Mishe alobaki: — Soki penza yo ozongi na kimia, loba ete Yawe alobaki na nzela na ngai te! Abakisaki: — Bino bato nyonso, bosimba makambo oyo nalobi!
29 And the king of Israel goeth up, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, to Ramoth-Gilead.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, bakendeki kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi.
30 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, 'And thou, put on thy garments.' And the king of Israel disguiseth himself, and goeth into battle.
Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na Jozafati: « Nakomibongola wana nakokende na bitumba; kasi yo, lata bilamba na yo ya bokonzi. » Boye mokonzi ya Isalaele amibongolaki mpe akendeki na bitumba.
31 And the king of Aram commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he hath — thirty and two — saying, 'Ye do not fight with small or with great, but with the king of Israel by himself.'
Nzokande, mokonzi ya Siri apesaki mitindo epai ya bakonzi na ye ya basoda, tuku misato na mibale, oyo batambolisaka bashar: « Bobundisa moto moko te, azala moke to monene; kasi bobundisa kaka mokonzi ya Isalaele. »
32 And it cometh to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they said, 'He [is] only the king of Israel;' and they turn aside to him to fight, and Jehoshaphat crieth out,
Tango bakonzi na ye ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar, bamonaki Jozafati, bamilobelaki: « Ezali solo mokonzi ya Isalaele. » Balandaki ye mpo na kobundisa ye, kasi Jozafati agangaki makasi.
33 and it cometh to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that he [is] not the king of Israel, that they turn back from after him.
Tango bakonzi ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar, basosolaki ete ezali mokonzi ya Isalaele te, batikaki kolanda ye.
34 And a man hath drawn with a bow, in his simplicity, and smiteth the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he saith to his charioteer, 'Turn thy hand, and take me out from the camp, for I have become sick.'
Kasi moto moko ya Siri abetaki tolotolo na ye bibetela, mpe mbanzi na yango edusolaki ebombelo ya tolo ya mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe ezwaki ye. Mokonzi alobaki na motambolisi ya shar: « Baluka mpe bimisa ngai libanda ya esika oyo bitumba ezali koleka, pamba te nazoki. »
35 And the battle increaseth on that day, and the king hath been caused to stand in the chariot, over-against Aram, and he dieth in the evening, and the blood of the wound runneth out unto the midst of the chariot,
Na mokolo yango, lokola bitumba ezalaki makasi, mokonzi atikalaki ya kotelema kati na shar na ye liboso ya bato ya Siri; mpe na pokwa, akufaki. Makila oyo ebimaki na pota na ye esopanaki kati na shar.
36 and he causeth the cry to pass over through the camp, at the going in of the sun, saying, 'Each unto his city, and each unto his land.'
Na pokwa, makelele moko ezalaki kotambola kati na mampinga: « Tika ete moto na moto azonga na engumba na ye; tika ete moto na moto azonga na mabele na ye! »
37 And the king dieth, and cometh into Samaria, and they bury the king in Samaria;
Boye mokonzi akufaki, mpe bamemaki ye na Samari; mpe bakundaki ye kuna.
38 and [one] rinseth the chariot by the pool of Samaria, and the dogs lick his blood — when the armour they had washed — according to the word of Jehovah that He spake.
Basukolaki shar na ye na liziba moko oyo ezalaki na Samari epai wapi basi ya ndumba bazalaki kosukola; mpe bambwa elembolaki makila na ye kolanda maloba oyo Yawe alobaki.
39 And the rest of the matters of Ahab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he built, and all the cities that he built, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Akabi, misala na ye, ndako oyo atongisaki na pembe ya nzoko mpe bingumba nyonso oyo alendisaki, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
40 And Ahab lieth with his fathers, and Ahaziah his son reigneth in his stead.
Akabi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye. Mpe Akazia, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
41 And Jehoshaphat son of Asa hath reigned over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel,
Jozafati, mwana mobali ya Asa, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi ya Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
42 Jehoshaphat [is] a son of thirty and five years in his reigning, and twenty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
Jozafati azalaki na mibu tuku misato na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na mitano na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Azuba. » Azuba azalaki mwana mwasi ya Shili.
43 And he walketh in all the way of Asa his father, he hath not turned aside from it, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah; only the high places have not turned aside, yet are the people sacrificing and making perfume in high places.
Jozafati alandaki nzela nyonso oyo Asa, tata na ye, atambolaki na yango mpe apengwaki na yango ata moke te; asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe. Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.
44 And Jehoshaphat maketh peace with the king of Israel;
Jozafati abikaki na kimia elongo na mokonzi ya Isalaele.
45 and the rest of the matters of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he got, and with which he fought, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jozafati, misala na ye mpe bitumba na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
46 And the remnant of the whoremongers who were left in the days of Asa his father he took away out of the land;
Ezalaki ye nde moto alongolaki kati na mokili, bato ya suka oyo bazalaki komipesa na kindumba ya bule, oyo batikalaki na tango Asa, tata na ye, azalaki na bokonzi.
47 and there is no king in Edom; he set up a king.
Na tango wana, mokonzi azalaki te kati na mokili ya Edomi. Ezalaki kaka na moyangeli moko oyo azalaki kotambolisa kuna.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships at Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, and they went not, for the ships were broken in Ezion-Geber.
Jozafati asalisaki bamasuwa ya Tarsisi mpo na kokende koluka wolo na Ofiri; kasi elongaki te kokende, pamba te bamasuwa ebukanaki na Etsioni-Geberi.
49 Then said Ahaziah son of Ahab unto Jehoshaphat, 'Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships;' and Jehoshaphat was not willing.
Boye Akazia, mwana mobali ya Akabi, alobaki na Jozafati: « Tika ete basali na ngai bakende nzela moko na basali na yo na bamasuwa! » Kasi Jozafati aboyaki.
50 And Jehoshaphat lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoram his son reigneth in his stead.
Jozafati akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi, koko na ye. Yorami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
51 Ahaziah son of Ahab hath reigned over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigneth over Israel two years,
Tango Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu zomi na sambo na bokonzi, Akazia, mwana mobali ya Akabi, akomaki mokonzi na Isalaele na Samari. Asalaki mibu mibale na bokonzi.
52 and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat who caused Israel to sin,
Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe; pamba te alandaki banzela ya tata na ye, ya mama na ye mpe ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, oyo asalaki ete Isalaele asala lisumu.
53 and serveth the Baal, and boweth himself to it, and provoketh Jehovah, God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Asalelaki nzambe Bala mpe agumbamelaki yango; na bongo, apelisaki kanda ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, ndenge kaka tata na ye asalaki.
