2 Kings 2
1 And it cometh to pass, at Jehovah's taking up Elijah in a whirlwind to the heavens, that Elijah goeth, and Elisha, from Gilgal,
Tango Yawe akomaki pene ya konetola Eliya na likolo na nzela ya mopepe makasi, Eliya mpe Elize balongwaki na Giligali.
2 and Elijah saith unto Elisha, 'Abide, I pray thee, here, for Jehovah hath sent me unto Beth-El;' and Elisha saith, 'Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, if I leave thee;' and they go down to Beth-El.
Eliya alobaki na Elize: — Nabondeli yo, tikala awa; pamba te Yawe atindi ngai na Beteli. Elize azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, nakotika yo te! Boye bakendeki na Beteli.
3 And sons of the prophets who [are] in Beth-El come out unto Elisha, and say unto him, 'Hast thou known that to-day Jehovah is taking thy lord from thy head?' and he saith, 'I also have known — keep silent.'
Bayekoli ya basakoli, oyo bazalaki kovanda na Beteli, bayaki epai ya Elize mpe batunaki ye: — Oyebi ete lelo, Yawe akonetola mokonzi na yo na esika oyo ozali? Elize azongisaki: — Solo, nayebi yango, kasi bovanda nye!
4 And Elijah saith to him, 'Elisha, abide, I pray thee, here, for Jehovah hath sent me to Jericho;' and he saith, 'Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, if I leave thee;' and they come in to Jericho.
Eliya alobaki na Elize: — Tikala awa; Yawe atindi ngai na Jeriko. Elize azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, nakotika yo te! Boye bakendeki na Jeriko.
5 And sons of the prophets who [are] in Jericho come nigh unto Elisha, and say unto him, 'Hast thou known that to-day Jehovah is taking thy lord from thy head?' and he saith, 'I also have known — keep silent.'
Bayekoli ya basakoli, oyo bazalaki kovanda na Jeriko bayaki epai ya Elize mpe batunaki ye: — Oyebi ete lelo, Yawe akonetola mokonzi na yo na esika oyo ozali? Elize azongisaki: — Solo, nayebi yango, kasi bovanda nye!
6 And Elijah saith to him, 'Abide, I pray thee, here, for Jehovah hath sent me to the Jordan;' and he saith, 'Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, if I leave thee;' and they go on both of them,
Eliya alobaki na ye: — Elize, tikala awa; Yawe atindi ngai na Yordani. Elize azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, nakotika yo te! Boye bango mibale bakobaki nzela na bango.
7 — and fifty men of the sons of the prophets have gone on, and stand over-against afar off — and both of them have stood by the Jordan.
Bayekoli tuku mitano ya basakoli bakendeki kotelema mosika ya esika oyo Eliya mpe Elize batelemaki, na ebale Yordani.
8 And Elijah taketh his robe, and wrappeth [it] together, and smiteth the waters, and they are halved, hither and thither, and they pass over both of them on dry land.
Eliya alongolaki kazaka na ye, agumbaki yango mpe abetaki yango na mayi ya ebale. Mayi ekabwanaki na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi, mpe bango mibale bakatisaki.
9 And it cometh to pass, at their passing over, that Elijah hath said unto Elisha, 'Ask, what do I do for thee before I am taken from thee?' and Elisha saith, 'Then let there be, I pray thee, a double portion of thy spirit unto me;'
Tango bakatisaki, Eliya alobaki na Elize: — Yebisa ngai nasala nini mpo na yo liboso ete Yawe alongola ngai liboso na yo. Elize azongisaki: — Tika ete nazwa nguya ya molimo na yo mbala mibale.
10 and he saith, 'Thou hast asked a hard thing; if thou dost see me taken from thee, it is to thee so; and if not, it is not.'
Eliya alobaki: — Osengi ngai eloko ya pasi, kasi soki okomona ngai wana Yawe akolongola ngai liboso na yo, okozwa yango; soki te, okozwa yango te.
11 And it cometh to pass, they are going, going on and speaking, and lo, a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and they separate between them both, and Elijah goeth up in a whirlwind, to the heavens.
Wana bazalaki kotambola mpe kosolola, mbala moko shar ya moto mpe bampunda ya moto ekabolaki bango mibale; mpe Eliya amataki na likolo na nzela ya mopepe makasi.
12 And Elisha is seeing, and he is crying, 'My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and its horsemen;' and he hath not seen him again; and he taketh hold on his garments, and rendeth them into two pieces.
Tango Elize amonaki bongo, agangaki: « Tata na ngai! Tata na ngai! Yo nde ozali lokola shar ya Isalaele mpe batambolisi na yango! » Bongo Elize amonaki ye lisusu te. Boye akangaki bilamba na ye mpe apasolaki yango na biteni mibale.
13 And he taketh up the robe of Elijah, that fell from off him, and turneth back and standeth on the edge of the Jordan,
Alokotaki kazaka ya Eliya, oyo ekweyaki wuta na mapeka na ye, azongaki mpe atelemaki na ngambo ya ebale Yordani.
14 and he taketh the robe of Elijah that fell from off him, and smiteth the waters, and saith, 'Where [is] Jehovah, God of Elijah — even He?' and he smiteth the waters, and they are halved, hither and thither, and Elisha passeth over.
Azwaki kazaka ya Eliya, abetaki yango na mayi mpe alobaki: « Wapi sik’oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Eliya? » Tango Elize abetaki kazaka yango na mayi, mayi ya ebale ekabwanaki na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi.
15 And they see him — the sons of the prophets who [are] in Jericho — over-against, and they say, 'Rested hath the spirit of Elijah on Elisha;' and they come to meet him, and bow themselves to him to the earth,
Bayekoli ya basakoli, oyo bawutaki na Jeriko bamonaki mpe balobaki: « Molimo ya Eliya evandi sik’oyo likolo ya Elize! » Bakendeki kokutana na ye mpe bagumbamaki liboso na ye kino na mabele.
16 and say unto him, 'Lo, we pray thee, there are with thy servants fifty men, sons of valour: let them go, we pray thee, and they seek thy lord, lest the Spirit of Jehovah hath taken him up, and doth cast him on one of the hills, or into one of the valleys;' and he saith, 'Ye do not send.'
Balobaki: — Tala biso basali na yo, tozali na mibali ya mpiko tuku mitano. Tika ete baluka mokonzi na yo, tango mosusu Molimo na Yawe amemi ye mpe abwaki ye na ngomba to na lubwaku. Elize azongisaki: — Te, botinda bango te!
17 And they press upon him, till he is ashamed, and he saith, 'Send ye;' and they send fifty men, and they seek three days, and have not found him;
Kasi batungisaki Elize makasi kino ayokaki soni mpo na koboya. Boye alobaki: — Botinda bango. Mpe batindaki mibali tuku mitano oyo balukaki Eliya mikolo misato, kasi batikalaki komona ye te.
18 and they turn back unto him — and he is abiding in Jericho — and he saith unto them, 'Did I not say unto you, Do not go?'
Tango bazongaki epai ya Elize oyo atikalaki na Jeriko, Elize alobaki na bango: — Napekisaki bino te kokende?
19 And the men of the city say unto Elisha, 'Lo, we pray thee, the site of the city [is] good, as my lord seeth, and the waters [are] bad, and the earth sterile.'
Bato ya engumba ya Jeriko bayebisaki Elize: — Oh nkolo! Engumba na biso etongami na esika ya malamu ndenge ozali komona yango, kasi mayi ezali mabe mpe mabele ebotaka te.
20 And he saith, 'Bring to me a new dish, and place there salt;' and they bring [it] unto him,
Elize alobaki: — Bomemela ngai sani ya moke ya sika mpe botia mungwa na kati. Bamemelaki ye yango
21 and he goeth out unto the source of the waters, and casteth there salt, and saith, 'Thus said Jehovah, I have given healing to these waters; there is not thence any more death and sterility.'
mpe akendeki na etima, abwakaki kuna mungwa mpe alobaki: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Napetoli mayi oyo; ekoyeisa lisusu kufa te mpe ekobebisa lisusu mabele te mpo ete ebota mbuma. › »
22 And the waters are healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha, that he spake.
Boye mayi etikala peto kino na mokolo ya lelo, kolanda liloba oyo Elize abimisaki.
23 And he goeth up thence to Beth-El, and he is going up in the way, and little youths have come out from the city, and scoff at him, and say to him, 'Go up, bald-head! go up, bald-head!'
Longwa kuna na Jeriko, Elize akendeki na Beteli. Wana azalaki kotambola na nzela, bilenge mibali babimaki wuta na engumba mpe bazalaki kotiola ye; bazalaki koloba: « Moto na libandi, longwa awa! Moto na libandi, longwa awa! »
24 And he looketh behind him, and seeth them, and declareth them vile in the name of Jehovah, and two bears come out of the forest, and rend of them forty and two lads.
Abalukaki, atalaki bango mpe alakelaki bango mabe na Kombo na Yawe. Boye, bangombolo mibale ebimaki na zamba mpe epasolaki bana tuku minei na mibale kati na bango.
25 And he goeth thence unto the hill of Carmel, and thence he hath turned back to Samaria.
Longwa wana Elize akendeki na ngomba Karimeli; mpe longwa kuna, azongaki na Samari.
