1 Bakonzi 14
1 Na tango wana kaka, Abiya, mwana mobali ya Jeroboami, akomaki kobela.
At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
2 Jeroboami alobaki na mwasi na ye: — Mibongola mpo ete bato bayeba te ete ozali mwasi ya mokonzi Jeroboami; bongo, kende na Silo. Mosakoli Ayiya azali kuna; ye nde alobaki na ngai ete nakozala mokonzi ya bato oyo.
Jeroboam said to his wife, "Please get up and disguise yourself, that you won't be recognized as the wife of Jeroboam. Go to Shiloh. Look, there is Ahijah the prophet, who spoke concerning me that I should be king over this people.
3 Kamata mapa zomi, ndambo ya bagato, na ekolo ya mafuta ya nzoyi, mpe kende kokutana na ye; akoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekokomela mwana na biso ya mobali.
Take with you ten loaves, and cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will become of the child."
4 Mwasi ya Jeroboami asalaki makambo oyo mobali na ye atindaki ye: akendeki na Silo mpe akotaki na ndako ya Ayiya. Nzokande, Ayiya azalaki komona lisusu te, pamba te miso na ye ekufaki mpo ete akomaki mobange.
Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
5 Yawe alobaki na Ayiya: — Mwasi ya Jeroboami azali koya kotuna yo toli mpo na mwana na ye ya mobali, pamba te azali kobela. Osengeli kopesa ye eyano songolo to pakala. Tango akoya, akosala lokola nde azali moto mosusu.
The LORD said to Ahijah, "Look, the wife of Jeroboam comes to inquire of you concerning her son; for he is sick. Thus and thus you shall tell her; for it will be, when she comes in, that she will pretend to be another woman."
6 Tango Ayiya ayokaki makelele ya makolo ya mwasi ya Jeroboami na ekuke, alobaki: — Kota, mwasi ya Jeroboami! Mpo na nini ozali komibongola? Natindami epai na yo mpo na koyebisa yo sango mabe.
It was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, "Come in, you wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be another? For I am sent to you with heavy news.
7 Kende koloba na Jeroboami: « Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Natombolaki yo kati na bato mpe nakomisaki yo mokambi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
Go, tell Jeroboam, 'Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: "Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel,
8 Nalongolaki bokonzi na maboko ya ndako ya Davidi mpe napesaki yo yango, kasi otambolaki te lokola Davidi, mowumbu na Ngai, oyo atosaki mibeko na Ngai mpe azalaki kolanda Ngai na motema na ye mobimba, mpo na kosala oyo kaka ezali malamu na miso na Ngai.
and tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you; and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in my eyes,
9 Kasi yo, osali mabe koleka bato nyonso oyo bazalaki liboso na yo: omisaleli banzambe mosusu, bikeko ya bibende banyangwisa na moto; boye, olamusi kanda na Ngai mpe opesi Ngai mokongo.
but have done evil above all who were before you, and have gone and made you other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back:
10 Yango wana, nakoyeisa pasi na ndako ya Jeroboami, nakosilisa koboma mibali nyonso kati na ndako ya Jeroboami, ezala mowumbu to monsomi kati na Isalaele; nakokomba ndako ya Jeroboami ndenge bakombaka matiti ya mbindo, kino nyonso penza ekosila.
therefore, look, I will bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam everyone who urinates on a wall, he who is shut up and he who is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweeps away dung, until it is all gone.
11 Bambwa ekolia bato nyonso ya Jeroboami, oyo bakokufa kati na engumba; mpe bandeke ya likolo ekolia bato nyonso oyo bakokufa na zamba, elobi Yawe. › »
He who dies of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and he who dies in the field shall the birds of the sky eat: for the LORD has spoken it."'
12 Mpo na yo, telema mpe zonga na ndako na yo. Tango kaka okotia makolo na yo kati na engumba na yo, mwana na yo ya mobali akokufa.
Arise therefore, and go to your house. When your feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
13 Bato nyonso ya Isalaele bakosalela ye matanga mpe bakokunda ye. Ye moko kaka, kati na ndako ya Jeroboami, nde bakokunda; pamba te kati na ndako mobimba ya Jeroboami, ye kaka nde Nzambe amoni na eloko ya malamu oyo esepelisi Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
All Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him; for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
14 Yawe akobimisa mpo na Ye moko, mokonzi mosusu ya Isalaele oyo akosilisa koboma ndako nyonso ya Jeroboami. Solo, ezali nde mpo na lelo, kaka sik’oyo!
Moreover the LORD will raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam. This is day. What? Even now.
15 Yawe akobeta Isalaele, mpe Isalaele akoningana lokola nzete oyo ebotaka na mayi, oyo mayi ezali koningisa; akopikola Isalaele wuta na mabele ya malamu oyo apesaki na bakoko na ye mpe akopanza bango mosika ya ebale Efrate, pamba te balamusi kanda ya Yawe na kosalaka makonzi ya bule mpo na Ashera.
For the LORD will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he will root up Israel out of this good land which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River, because they have made their Asherim, provoking the LORD to anger.
16 Akokaba Isalaele mpo na masumu oyo Jeroboami asali mpe asalisi Isalaele.
He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he has sinned, and with which he has made Israel to sin."
17 Mwasi ya Jeroboami atelemaki, akendeki mpe akomaki na Tiritsa. Tango akomaki na ekuke ya ndako na ye, mwana na ye ya mobali akufaki.
Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah. As she came to the threshold of the house, the child died.
18 Bakundaki ye, mpe Isalaele mobimba basalaki matanga ndenge kaka Yawe alobaki na nzela ya mowumbu na Ye, mosakoli Ayiya.
All Israel buried him, and mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the prophet.
19 Misala mosusu ya Jeroboami, bitumba mpe bokonzi na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
The rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, look, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
20 Jeroboami asalaki mibu tuku mibale na mibale na bokonzi, akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye. Nadabi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
The days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his place.
21 Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda; azalaki na mibu tuku minei na moko ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na sambo na Yelusalemi, engumba oyo Yawe aponaki kati na mabota nyonso ya Isalaele mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye. Kombo ya mama na Roboami ezalaki « Naama. » Naama azalaki moto ya Amoni.
Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
22 Bato ya Yuda basalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Na nzela ya masumu oyo basalaki, balamusaki zuwa ya Nzambe koleka oyo batata na bango basalaki.
Judah did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they committed, above all that their fathers had done.
23 Batongaki lisusu mpo na bango moko bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, mabanga ya bule, makonzi ya bule mpo na Ashera na likolo ya bangomba nyonso mpe na se ya banzete nyonso ya mobesu.
For they also built them high places, and pillars, and Asherim, on every high hill, and under every green tree;
24 Ezalaki lisusu na mibali oyo bazalaki komipesa na kindumba ya bule kati na mokili ya Yuda: bamipesaki na kosala makambo ya nkele kolanda bikolo ya bapaya oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso ya bato ya Isalaele.
and there were also male shrine prostitutes in the land: they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD drove out before the children of Israel.
25 Tango Roboami akokisaki mibu mitano na bokonzi, Shishaki, mokonzi ya Ejipito, ayaki kobundisa Yelusalemi.
It happened in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem;
26 Azwaki bomengo ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bomengo ya ndako ya mokonzi. Azwaki penza biloko nyonso, ezala banguba nyonso ya wolo oyo Salomo asalisaki.
and he took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away all: and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
27 Boye, na esika ya banguba ya wolo, mokonzi Roboami asalisaki banguba ya bronze mpe apesaki yango epai ya bakonzi ya bakengeli na ye, oyo bazalaki kobatela ekotelo ya ndako ya mokonzi.
King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.
28 Tango nyonso mokonzi abandaki kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe, bakengeli bazalaki komema banguba mpe kozongisa yango kati na ndako ya bakengeli.
It was so, that as often as the king went into the house of the LORD, the guard bore them, and brought them back into the guard room.
29 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Roboami mpe misala na ye ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
30 Ezalaki tango nyonso na bitumba kati na Roboami mpe Jeroboami.
There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
31 Roboami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Naama. » Naama azalaki moto ya Amoni. Abiyami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David: and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess. Abijam his son reigned in his place.
