1 Bakonzi 16

1 Yawe alobaki na Jewu, mwana mobali ya Anani, na tina na Baesha:

Then the word of the LORD came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:

2 « Mpo ete nazwaki yo kati na putulu mpe nakomisi yo mokambi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele, kasi otambolaki na banzela ya Jeroboami mpe okweyisi bato na Ngai, Isalaele, na masumu oyo epelisi kanda na Ngai,

“Even though I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin and to provoke Me to anger by their sins.

3 nakokombola Baesha mpe libota na ye nyonso, mpe nakokomisa ndako na ye lokola ndako ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati.

So now I will consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat:

4 Bambwa ekolia bato ya Baesha oyo bakokufa kati na engumba mpe bandeke ya likolo ekolia bato oyo bakokufa na bilanga. »

Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the field will be eaten by the birds of the air.”

5 Makambo mosusu oyo etali mokonzi Baesha mpe misala minene oyo asalaki, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the rest of the acts of Baasha, along with his accomplishments and might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

6 Baesha akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Tiritsa; mpe Ela, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

And Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah reigned in his place.

7 Yawe alobaki lisusu na nzela ya mosakoli Jewu, mwana mobali ya Anani, na tina na Baesha mpe ndako na ye, mpo na makambo mibale oyo: ya liboso, mpo na mabe nyonso oyo asalaki na miso ya Yawe, na kopelisa kanda ya Yawe na nzela ya misala na ye kino kokoma ndenge moko na libota ya Jeroboami; ya mibale, mpo ete asilisaki koboma bato nyonso ya libota ya Jeroboami.

Moreover, the word of the LORD came through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands and becoming like the house of Jeroboam, and also because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam.

8 Tango Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, asalaki mibu tuku mibale na motoba na bokonzi; Ela, mwana mobali ya Baesha, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe akonzaki Isalaele mibu mibale na Tiritsa.

In the twenty-sixth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Elah son of Baasha became king of Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah two years.

9 Zimiri, mokonzi ya mampinga oyo azalaki kokamba ndambo ya bashar na ye, asalelaki ye likita. Na tango wana, mokonzi Ela azalaki na Tiritsa komela mpe kolangwa masanga na ndako ya Aritsa, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, kuna na Tiritsa.

However, while Elah was in Tirzah getting drunk in the house of Arza the steward of his household there, Elah’s servant Zimri, the commander of half his chariots, conspired against him.

10 Zimiri akotaki, abetaki mpe abomaki ye na tango Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku mibale na sambo na bokonzi. Boye, Zimiri akitanaki na Ela na bokonzi.

So in the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri went in, struck Elah down, and killed him. And Zimri reigned in his place.

11 Na tango kaka azwaki bokonzi mpe avandaki na kiti ya bokonzi, asilisaki koboma libota mobimba ya Baesha; atikaki ata mobali moko te na bomoi, ezala ndeko to molingami na ye.

As soon as Zimri began to reign and was seated on the throne, he struck down the entire household of Baasha. He did not leave a single male, whether a kinsman or friend.

12 Boye, Zimiri asilisaki koboma libota nyonso ya Baesha kolanda Liloba na Yawe, oyo elobamaki mpo na kotelemela Baesha na nzela ya mosakoli Jewu;

So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, according to the word that the LORD had spoken against Baasha through Jehu the prophet.

13 likolo ya masumu nyonso oyo Baesha elongo na mwana na ye ya mobali Ela basalaki mpe oyo ememaki Isalaele mobimba na libebi; masumu oyo epelisaki kanda ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, na nzela ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko oyo ezanga tina.

This happened because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.

14 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Ela, misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the rest of the acts of Elah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

15 Tango Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku mibale na sambo na bokonzi; Zimiri akonzaki na Tiritsa, mikolo sambo. Mampinga ya basoda ya Isalaele batongaki molako na bango pembeni ya Gibetoni, engumba ya bato ya Filisitia, mpo na kobundisa yango.

In the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri reigned in Tirzah for seven days. Now the troops were encamped against Gibbethon of the Philistines,

16 Tango bato ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kati na molako bayokaki ete Zimiri asali likita mpo na kotelemela mokonzi Asa mpe abomaki ye, bakomisaki kaka na mokolo wana Omiri oyo azalaki mokonzi ya mampinga, mokonzi ya Isalaele kati na molako.

and the people in the camp heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king. So there in the camp that very day, all Israel proclaimed Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel.

17 Bongo Omiri elongo na bato nyonso ya Isalaele balongwaki na Gibetoni mpe bakendeki kozingela Tiritsa.

Then Omri and all the Israelites marched up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.

18 Tango Zimiri amonaki ete mampinga ya Isalaele esili kobotola engumba, akotaki na ndako ya bokonzi, amitumbaki na ndako mpe akufaki na moto.

When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he entered the citadel of the royal palace and burned it down upon himself. So he died

19 Akufaki likolo ya masumu oyo asalaki, na kosala mabe na miso ya Yawe mpe na kotambola na banzela ya Jeroboami oyo asalaki masumu oyo ememaki Isalaele na libebi.

because of the sins he had committed, doing evil in the sight of the LORD and following the example of Jeroboam and the sin he had committed and had caused Israel to commit.

20 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Zimiri mpe botomboki na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the rest of the acts of Zimri and the treason he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

21 Sima na kufa ya Zimiri, bana ya Isalaele bakabwanaki na bandambo mibale: ndambo moko elandaki Tibini, mwana mobali ya Ginati lokola mokonzi; mpe ndambo mosusu elandaki Omiri.

At that time the people of Israel were divided: Half of the people supported Tibni son of Ginath as king, and half supported Omri.

22 Kasi bato oyo bazalaki kolanda Omiri bamonanaki makasi koleka bato oyo bazalaki kolanda Tibini, mwana mobali ya Ginati. Boye, Tibini akufaki mpe Omiri akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

But the followers of Omri proved stronger than those of Tibni son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Omri became king.

23 Tango Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na moko, Omiri akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele. Asalaki mibu zomi na mibale na bokonzi, mpe kati na mibu zomi na mibale wana, akonzaki mpe engumba Tiritsa mibu motoba.

In the thirty-first year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned twelve years, six of them in Tirzah.

24 Asombaki ngomba Samari epai ya Shemeri na motuya ya palata nkoto motoba mpe atongaki engumba likolo na yango. Abengaki engumba yango Samari kolanda kombo ya Shemeri, mokolo na yango ya liboso.

He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver and built a city there, calling it Samaria after the name of Shemer, who had owned the hill.

25 Kasi Omiri asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe mpe asalaki masumu koleka bakonzi nyonso oyo bakonzaki liboso na ye.

But Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD and acted more wickedly than all who were before him.

26 Atambolaki na banzela nyonso ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, oyo asalaki masumu oyo epelisaki kanda ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, na nzela ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko oyo ezanga tina.

For he walked in all the ways of Jeroboam son of Nebat and in his sins, which he caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.

27 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Omiri: misala oyo asalaki mpe nguya oyo alakisaki, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the rest of the acts of Omri, along with his accomplishments and the might he exercised, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

28 Omiri, akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Samari. Akabi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

And Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigned in his place.

29 Tango Asa, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na mwambe na bokonzi, Akabi, mwana mobali ya Omiri, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele. Akonzaki Isalaele na engumba Samari mibu tuku mibale na mibale.

In the thirty-eighth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Ahab son of Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty-two years.

30 Akabi, mwana mobali ya Omiri, asalaki makambo mabe mingi na miso ya Yawe koleka bakonzi nyonso oyo bakonzaki liboso na ye.

However, Ahab son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD, more than all who were before him.

31 Lokola amonaki ete kolanda masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, ekokaki te, abalaki Jezabeli, mwana mwasi ya Etibala, mokonzi ya Sidoni, mpe akomaki kosalela nzambe Bala mpe kogumbamela yango.

And as if it were not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, he even married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he then proceeded to serve and worship Baal.

32 Akabi atongaki etumbelo mpo na nzambe Bala kati na ndako oyo atongaki mpo na yango, na Samari.

First, Ahab set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.

33 Akabi atongaki lisusu likonzi ya bule ya nzambe mwasi Ashera; asalaki makambo mabe koleka bakonzi nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bakonzaki liboso na ye, makambo oyo epelisaki kanda ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.

Then he set up an Asherah pole. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel before him.

34 Na tango Akabi azalaki mokonzi, Iyeli, moto ya Beteli, atongaki lisusu engumba Jeriko. Tango atongaki miboko na yango, Abirami, mwana na ye ya liboso ya mobali, akufaki; mpe tango batiaki bikuke na yango, Segubi, mwana na ye ya mobali ya suka, akufaki. Yango esalemaki kolanda liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela na Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni.

In Ahab’s days, Hiel the Bethelite rebuilt Jericho. At the cost of Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundation, and at the cost of Segub his youngest he set up its gates, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through Joshua son of Nun.
