2 Masolo ya Kala 18
1 Mokonzi Jozafati akomaki na lokumu mingi mpe na bozwi ebele, asalaki boyokani elongo na Akabi na nzela ya libala.
And Jehoshaphat has riches and honor in abundance, and joins affinity to Ahab,
2 Sima na ndambo ya mibu, akendeki kotala Akabi kati na Samari. Akabi abomaki bameme mpe bangombe ebele mpo na koyamba ye mpe bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ye. Atindikaki ye na kokende na Ramoti ya Galadi.
and goes down at the end of [certain] years to Samaria to [visit] Ahab, and Ahab sacrifices sheep and oxen in abundance for him and for the people who [are] with him, and persuades him to go up to Ramoth-Gilead.
3 Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, atunaki epai ya Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda: — Okoki solo kosepela kokende elongo na ngai mpo na kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi? Jozafati azongisaki: — Ngai mpe yo, bato na ngai mpe bato na yo, tozali se moko; tokokende elongo na yo na bitumba.
And Ahab king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Do you go with me [to] Ramoth-Gilead?” And he says to him, “As I—so you, and as your people—my people, and [we go] with you into the battle.”
4 Kasi Jozafati alobaki lisusu na mokonzi ya Isalaele: — Nabondeli yo, tuna nanu toli ya Yawe.
And Jehoshaphat says to the king of Israel, “Please seek the word of YHWH this day.”
5 Boye, mokonzi ya Isalaele asangisaki basakoli nkama minei mpe atunaki bango: — Boni, tokoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Bazongiselaki ye: — Kende, pamba te Nzambe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi.
And the king of Israel gathers the prophets, four hundred men, and says to them, “Do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And they say, “Go up, and God gives [it] into the hand of the king.”
6 Kasi Jozafati atunaki lisusu: — Ezali lisusu na mosakoli moko te awa oyo, na nzela na ye, tokoki kotuna toli ya Yawe?
And Jehoshaphat says, “[Is there] not still a prophet of YHWH here, and we seek from him?”
7 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 mpo ete atikala nanu kosakola te makambo ya malamu mpo na bomoi na ngai; asakolaka kaka makambo ya mabe. Ezali Mishe, mwana mobali ya Yimila. Jozafati alobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi aloba bongo te!
And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “[There is] still one man to seek YHWH from him, and I have hated him, for he is not prophesying of good concerning me, but of evil [for] all his days, he [is] Micaiah son of Imlah”; and Jehoshaphat says, “Do not let the king say so.”
8 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.
And the king of Israel calls to a certain officer and says, “Hurry Micaiah son of Imlah.”
9 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.
And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, and they are sitting in a threshing-floor at the opening of the Gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
10 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. »
And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah makes horns of iron for himself and says, “Thus said YHWH:
11 Basakoli nyonso bazalaki koloba kaka liloba moko: « Kende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi! Okolonga, pamba te Yawe akokaba yango na maboko ya mokonzi. »
With these you push Aram until you have consumed them.” And all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, “Go up [to] Ramath-Gilead and prosper, and YHWH has given [it] into the hand of the king.”
12 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.
And the messenger who has gone to call for Micaiah has spoken to him, saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets [as] one mouth [are] good toward the king, and please let your word be like one of theirs: and you have spoken good.”
13 Kasi Mishe azongisaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe, makambo oyo Nzambe na ngai akoloba na ngai, yango nde nakoloba.
And Micaiah says “YHWH lives, surely that which my God says, I speak it.”
14 Tango akomaki epai ya mokonzi, mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Mishe, tokoki solo kokende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi to te? Azongisaki: — Bokende! Bokolonga! Bakokabama na maboko na bino!
And he comes to the king, and the king says to him, “Micaiah, do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And he says, “Go up, and prosper, and they are given into your hand.”
15 Kasi mokonzi alobaki na ye: — Nakolapisa yo ndayi mbala boni mpo ete oloba na ngai kaka bosolo, na Kombo na Yawe?
And the king says to him, “How many times am I adjuring you that you speak to me only truth in the Name of YHWH?”
16 Mishe azongisaki: — Namoni bato nyonso ya Isalaele bapalangani na likolo ya 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! »
And he says, “I have seen all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd, and YHWH says, There are no masters for these, they each return to his house in peace.”
17 Mokonzi ya Isalaele alobaki na Jozafati: — Nayebisaki yo te ete asakolaka makambo ya malamu te mpo na bomoi na ngai, alobaka kaka mpo na mabe!
And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not say to you [that] he does not prophesy good concerning me, but rather of evil?”
18 Mishe alobaki: — Solo, boyoka 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.
And [Micaiah] says, “Therefore, hear a word of YHWH: I have seen YHWH sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing on His right and His left;
19 Yawe atuni: « Nani akokosa Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo ete akende kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi mpe akufa kuna? » Bazongisaki, moko na moko na ndenge na ye.
and YHWH says, Who entices Ahab king of Israel, and he goes up and falls in Ramoth-Gilead? And this speaker says thus, and that speaker thus.
20 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? »
And the spirit goes out, and stands before YHWH, and says, I entice him; and YHWH says to him, With what?
21 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. »
And he says, I go out, and have become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets. And He says, You entice, and also, you are able; go out and do so.
22 Mpe sik’oyo, tala, Yawe atie molimo ya lokuta kati na minoko ya basakoli na yo oyo; Yawe azwi penza mokano ya koboma yo.
And now, behold, YHWH has put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of these prophets of yours, and YHWH has spoken calamity concerning you.”
23 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?
And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah comes near and strikes Micaiah on the cheek, and says, “Where [is] this—the way the spirit [from] YHWH passed over from me to speak with you?”
24 Mishe azongisaki: — Okososola yango kaka na mokolo oyo okokima mpe okotambola na shambre moko na moko mpo na koluka kobombama.
And Micaiah says, “Behold, you see in that day that you enter into the innermost chamber to be hidden.”
25 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.
And the king of Israel says, “Take Micaiah, and turn him back to Amon head of the city, and to Joash son of the king,
26 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. › »
and you have said, Thus said the king: Put this [one] in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, until my return in peace.”
27 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!
And Micaiah says, “If you certainly return in peace, YHWH has not spoken by me”; and he says, “Hear, O peoples, all of them!”
28 Mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe Jozafati, mokonzi ya Yuda, bakendeki kobundisa Ramoti ya Galadi.
And the king of Israel goes up—and Jehoshaphat king of Judah—to Ramoth-Gilead;
29 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.
and the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, “And you, put on your garments.” And the king of Israel disguises himself, and they go into battle.
30 Nzokande, mokonzi ya Siri apesaki mitindo epai ya bakonzi na ye ya basoda oyo batambolisaka bashar: — Bobundisa moto moko te, azala moke to monene; kasi bobundisa kaka mokonzi ya Isalaele.
And the king of Aram has commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he has, saying, “You do not fight with small or with great, except with the king of Israel by himself.”
31 Tango bakonzi na ye ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar, bamonaki Jozafati, bamilobelaki: « Ezali solo mokonzi ya Isalaele. » Bazingelaki ye mpo na kobundisa ye, kasi Jozafati agangaki makasi, mpe Yawe asungaki ye. Nzambe atindikaki basoda oyo batambolisaka bashar mosika na ye.
And it comes to pass at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they have said, “He is the king of Israel,” and they turn around against him to fight, and Jehoshaphat cries out, and YHWH has helped him, and God entices them from him;
32 Tango bakonzi ya basoda, oyo batambolisaka bashar basosolaki ete ezali mokonzi ya Isalaele te, batikaki kolanda ye.
indeed, it comes to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that it has not been the king of Israel—they turn back from after him.
33 Kasi moto moko 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.
And a man has drawn with a bow in his simplicity, and strikes the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he says to the charioteer, “Turn your hand, and you have brought me out of the camp, for I have become [gravely] sick.”
34 Na mokolo yango, lokola bitumba ezalaki makasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele atikalaki ya kotelema kati na shar na ye liboso ya bato ya Siri, kino na pokwa. Mpe kaka na pokwa yango, akufaki.
And the battle increases on that day, and the king of Israel has been propped up in the chariot in front of Aram until the evening, and he dies at the time of the going in of the sun.
