2 Masolo ya Kala 22
1 Bato ya Yelusalemi bakomisaki Akazia, mwana mobali ya suka ya Yorami, mokonzi mpo na kokitana na ye, pamba te bato ya mobulu oyo bakotaki na molako elongo na bato ya Arabi babomaki bana mibali nyonso. Ezali boye nde Akazia, mwana mobali ya Yorami, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
And the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, his youngest son, king in his place, for the band of men who came with the Arabians to the army had put all the older sons to death. So Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, became king.
2 Akazia azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mibale ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mobu moko na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Atali. » Atali azalaki koko ya Omiri.
Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.
3 Ye mpe alandaki banzela oyo libota ya Akabi etambolaki na yango, pamba te mama na ye, na nzela ya batoli na ye, azalaki kotindika ye na kosala mabe.
He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.
4 Akazia asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe ndenge libota ya Akabi esalaki; pamba te, sima na kufa ya tata na ye, bato ya libota ya Akabi bakomaki bapesi toli na ye mpo na libebi na ye.
And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the family of Ahab did; for after the death of his father they were his guides to his destruction.
5 Alandaki mpe batoli na bango tango akendeki na bitumba elongo na Yorami, mwana mobali ya Akabi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo na kobundisa Azaeli, mokonzi ya Siri, na Ramoti ya Galadi. Kasi bato ya Arami bazokisaki Yorami.
Acting on their suggestion, he went with Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the bowmen.
6 Bongo, Yorami azongaki na Jizireyeli mpo na kokawusa bapota oyo bazokisaki ye na Rama, na bitumba oyo babundaki na Azaeli, mokonzi ya Siri. Azaria, mwana mobali ya Yorami, mokonzi ya Yuda, akendeki na Jizireyeli kotala Yorami, mwana mobali ya Akabi, pamba te bazokisaki ye.
And he went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which they had given him at Ramah when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Jehoram, the son of Ahab, because he was ill.
7 Nzambe asalaki ete kobebisama ya Akazia esalema tango akendeki kotala Yorami. Tango kaka Akazia akomaki, abimaki nzela moko na Yorami mpo na kokende epai ya Jewu, mwana mobali ya Nimishi, oyo Yawe apakolaki mafuta mpo na kobebisa ndako ya Akabi.
Now by the purpose of God, Ahaziah's journey to see Jehoram was the cause of his downfall: for when he came there, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, who had been marked out by the Lord for the destruction of the family of Ahab.
8 Tango Jewu azalaki kokokisa etumbu kati na libota ya Akabi, akutaki bakambi ya Yuda mpe bana mibali ya bandeko mibali ya Akazia, oyo bazalaki kosalela tata leki na bango Akazia, mpe abomaki bango.
Now when Jehu was effecting the punishment of the family of Ahab, he came to the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers, the servants of Ahaziah, and put them to death.
9 Bongo, akendeki koluka Akazia, mpe bato na ye bakangaki Akazia kati na Samari epai wapi abombamaki. Bamemaki ye epai ya Jewu mpe babomaki ye. Bakundaki ye, pamba te bamilobelaki: « Azalaki mwana mobali ya Jozafati oyo azalaki koluka Yawe na motema na ye mobimba. » Ezalaki lisusu na moto ya nguya ata moko te kati na libota ya Akazia mpo na kobatela bokonzi.
And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria, ) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.
10 Tango Atali, mama ya Akazia, amonaki ete mwana na ye ya mobali akufi, abomisaki libota mobimba ya bokonzi ya ndako ya Yuda.
Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom of Judah put to death.
11 Kasi Yeoshabeati, mwana mwasi ya mokonzi Yorami, azwaki Joasi, mwana mobali ya Akazia, alongolaki ye na mayele kati na bana mibali ya mokonzi, oyo basengeli koboma, mpe atiaki ye mpe ndesi na ye kati na shambre epai wapi batiaka bambeto. Lokola Yeoshabeati, mwana mwasi ya mokonzi Yorami mpe mwasi ya Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada, azalaki ndeko mwasi ya Akazia, abombaki Joasi mosika ya miso ya Atali; mpe Atali abomaki Joasi te.
But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him and the woman who took care of him in a bedroom. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest and sister of Ahaziah, kept him safe from Athaliah, so that she did not put him to death.
12 Joasi abombamaki elongo na bango mibu motoba kati na Tempelo ya Nzambe, wana Atali azalaki kokonza mokili.
And she kept him safe with her in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah was ruling the land.
