1 Bakonzi 19
1 Akabi ayebisaki Jezabeli makambo nyonso oyo Eliya asalaki mpe ndenge nini abomaki basakoli nyonso na mopanga.
And he told Ahab to Jezebel all that he had done Elijah and all that he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2 Boye Jezabeli atindaki ntoma epai ya Eliya mpo na koyebisa ye: — Tika ete banzambe bapesa ngai etumbu ya makasi koleka soki lobi, kaka na ngonga oyo, nakomisi bomoi na yo te ndenge okomisaki bomoi ya moko na moko kati na bango.
And she sent Jezebel a messenger to Elijah saying thus may they do! [the] gods and thus may they add! if about this time tomorrow I will make life your like [the] life of one from them.
3 Eliya abangaki mpe akimaki mpo na kobikisa bomoi na ye. Tango akomaki na Beri-Sheba ya Yuda, atikaki kuna mosali na ye.
And he saw and he arose and he went to life his and he came Beer Sheba which [belongs] to Judah and he left servant his there.
4 Sima na ye kotambola mokolo mobimba kati na esobe, akomaki na nzete moko ya moke, avandaki na se na yango mpe asengaki kufa na maloba oyo: — Yawe, nalembi! Zwa molimo na ngai mpo ete naleki bakoko na ngai te na malamu.
And he he went in the wilderness a journey of a day and he came and he sat under a broom plant (one *Q(k)*) and he asked self his to die and he said - enough now O Yahweh take life my for not [am] good I more than ancestors my.
5 Bongo alalaki na se ya nzete yango mpe azwaki pongi. Mbala moko, anjelu moko asimbaki ye mpe alobaki na ye: — Lamuka mpe lia.
And he lay down and he slept under a broom plant one and there! this an angel [was] touching him and he said to him arise eat.
6 Atalaki mpe amonaki pene ya esika oyo atiaki moto, lipa batumba na mabanga ya moto mpe mbeki ya mayi. Aliaki, amelaki mpe alalaki lisusu.
And he looked and there! [was] [the] place of head his a bread cake of hot coals and a jug of water and he ate and he drank and he returned and he lay down.
7 Anjelu ya Yawe azongaki na mbala ya mibale, asimbaki ye lisusu mpe alobaki: — Lamuka mpe lia, pamba te mobembo ezali molayi mingi mpo na yo.
And he returned [the] angel of Yahweh - a second [time] and he touched him and he said arise eat for [is too] great for you the journey.
8 Boye alamukaki, aliaki mpe amelaki. Bongo na makasi oyo azwaki na nzela ya bilei, atambolaki mobembo ya mikolo tuku minei mpe ya babutu tuku minei kino akomaki na Orebi, ngomba ya Nzambe.
And he arose and he ate and he drank and he went in [the] strength of - the food that forty day[s] and forty night[s] to [the] mountain of God Horeb.
9 Kuna, akotaki na lidusu ya mabanga mpe alekisaki butu. Yawe alobaki na ye: — Eliya, ozali kosala nini awa?
And he went there into the cave and he spent [the] night there and there! [the] word of Yahweh [was] to him and he said to him what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
10 Azongisaki: — Nazali na bolingo eleka ndelo mpo na Yawe Nzambe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, pamba te bana ya Isalaele babwaki boyokani na Yo, babuki bitumbelo na Yo mpe babomi basakoli na Yo na mopanga. Natikali kaka ngai moko na bomoi. Sik’oyo bazali lisusu koluka koboma ngai.
And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
11 Yawe alobaki: — Bima mpe telema na ngomba liboso ya Yawe, pamba te Yawe alingi koleka. Boye mopepe moko ya makasi penza epepaki, ebukaki bangomba mpe epanzaki mabanga liboso ya Yawe. Nzokande Yawe azalaki kati na mopepe makasi te.
And he said go out and you will stand on the mountain before Yahweh and there! Yahweh [was] passing by and a wind great and strong [was] tearing mountains and breaking rocks before Yahweh not [was] in the wind Yahweh and [was] after the wind an earthquake not [was] in the earthquake Yahweh.
12 Sima na mopepe makasi, mabele eninganaki; nzokande Yawe azalaki te kati na koningana ya mabele. Sima na koningana ya mabele, moto eyaki; nzokande Yawe azalaki te kati na moto wana. Mpe sima na moto, mopepe ya kimia penza eyaki.
And [was] after the earthquake a fire not [was] in the fire Yahweh and [was] after the fire a sound of a whisper soft.
13 Tango kaka Eliya ayokaki yango, azipaki elongi na ye na songe ya kazaka na ye, abimaki mpe atelemaki na ekotelo ya lidusu ya mabanga. Mpe mongongo moko elobaki na ye lisusu: — Eliya, ozali kosala nini awa?
And it was - when heard Elijah and he wrapped face his in cloak his and he went out and he stood [the] entrance of the cave and there! [was] to him a voice and it said what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
14 Azongisaki: — Nazali na bolingo eleka ndelo mpo na Yawe Nzambe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, pamba te bana ya Isalaele, babwaki boyokani na Yo, babuki bitumbelo na Yo mpe babomi basakoli na Yo na mopanga. Natikali kaka ngai moko na bomoi. Sik’oyo bazali lisusu koluka koboma ngai.
And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
15 Yawe alobaki na ye: — Zonga na nzela oyo oyelaki mpe kende na esobe ya Damasi. Tango okokoma kuna, okopakola Azaeli mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi ya Siri.
And he said Yahweh to him go go back to way your [the] wilderness of towards Damascus and you will go and you will anoint Hazael to king over Aram.
16 Okopakola lisusu Jewu, mwana mobali ya Nimishi, mafuta mpo ete akoma mokonzi ya Isalaele. Okopakola lisusu Elize, mwana mobali ya Shafati ya Abele-Meola, mafuta mpo ete akoma mosakoli na esika na yo.
And Jehu [the] son of Nimshi you will anoint to king over Israel and Elisha [the] son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah you will anoint to prophet in place of you.
17 Moto nyonso oyo akobika na mopanga ya Azaeli, Jewu akoboma ye; mpe moto nyonso oyo akobika na mopanga ya Jewu, Elize akoboma ye.
And it will be the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Hazael he will put to death Jehu and the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Jehu he will put to death Elisha.
18 Atako bongo, nabombi kati na Isalaele bato nkoto sambo, ba-oyo mabolongo na bango efukameli Bala te, mpe minoko na bango epesi ye beze te.
And I will leave among Israel seven thousand all the knees which not they have bowed down to Baal and every mouth which not it has kissed it.
19 Eliya alongwaki wana mpe akutanaki na Elize, mwana mobali ya Shafati. Azalaki kobalola bilanga na bangombe tuku mibale na minei bakangisa mibale-mibale liboso na ye mpe ye moko azalaki kotambolisa bangombe mibale ya suka. Eliya apusanaki pembeni ya Elize mpe abwakelaki Elize kazaka na ye.
And he went from there and he found Elisha [the] son of Shaphat and he [was] plowing two [plus] ten pairs [were] before him and he [was] with two [plus] the ten and he passed on Elijah to him and he threw cloak his to him.
20 Elize atikaki bangombe na ye, akimaki mbangu sima na Eliya mpe alobaki: — Tika ete nakende nanu kopesa tata mpe mama na ngai beze mpo na kokabwana na bango, bongo nakolanda yo. Eliya azongisaki: — Zonga na yo, nasali yo nini?
And he left the ox[en] and he ran after Elijah and he said I want to kiss please father my and mother my and I will go after you and he said to him go turn back for what? have I done to you.
21 Boye Elize atikaki ye mpe azongaki. Azwaki bangombe na ye mibale oyo bakangisa, akataki yango kingo mpe abonzaki yango lokola mbeka. Asalelaki bikangiseli ya bangombe mpo na kolamba mosuni na yango, akabolaki yango epai ya bato na ye mpe baliaki yango. Boye, atelemaki mpo na kolanda Eliya mpe akomaki kosalela ye.
And he turned back from after him and he took [the] pair of the ox[en] and he sacrificed it and with [the] equipment of the ox[en] he cooked them the flesh and he gave [it] to the people and they ate and he arose and he went after Elijah and he served him.
