2 Masolo ya Kala 26
1 Bato nyonso ya Yuda baponaki Oziasi oyo azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi na esika ya Amatsia, tata na ye.
Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
2 Sima na kufa ya tata na ye, Amatsia, Oziasi atongaki lisusu engumba Eyiloti mpe azongisaki yango na se ya bokonzi ya Yuda.
He was the builder of Eloth, which he got back for Judah after the death of the king.
3 Oziasi azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mitano na mibale na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yekolia. » Yekolia azalaki moto ya Yelusalemi.
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jechiliah of Jerusalem.
4 Asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe ndenge kaka Amatsia, tata na ye, asalaki.
He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.
5 Oziasi akangamaki na Nzambe mikolo nyonso ya bomoi ya Zakari, pamba te azalaki kolakisa ye kotosa Nzambe. Na tango nyonso oyo Oziasi awumelaki kokangama na Yawe, Nzambe azalaki kolongisa ye.
He gave himself to searching after God in the days of Zechariah, who made men wise in the fear of God; and as long as he was true to the Lord, God made things go well for him.
6 Akendeki kobundisa bato ya Filisitia mpe atobolaki madusu kati na bamir ya Gati, ya Yabine mpe ya Asidodi. Atongaki lisusu bingumba ebele kati na etuka ya Asidodi mpe kati na bituka mosusu ya bato ya Filisitia.
He went out and made war against the Philistines, pulling down the walls of Gath and Jabneh and Ashdod, and building towns in the country round Ashdod and among the Philistines.
7 Nzambe asungaki ye tango abundisaki bato ya Filisitia, ya Arabi oyo bazalaki kovanda na Guri-Bala, mpe tango abundisaki bato ya Maoni.
And God gave him help against the Philistines, and against the Arabians living in Gur-baal, and against the Meunim.
8 Bato ya Amoni bafutaki mpako ya mokonzi epai ya Oziasi, mpe kombo na ye ekendeki sango kino na bandelo ya Ejipito, pamba te akomaki na nguya makasi koleka.
The Ammonites gave offerings to Uzziah: and news of him went out as far as the limit of Egypt; for he became very great in power.
9 Oziasi atongaki bandako milayi kati na Yelusalemi, na ekuke ya suka, na ekuke ya lubwaku mpe na suka ya mir; mpe alendisaki yango makasi.
Uzziah made towers in Jerusalem, at the doorway in the angle and at the doorway in the valley and at the turn of the wall, arming them.
10 Atongaki lisusu bandako milayi kati na esobe mpe atimolaki mabulu ebele ya mayi mpo ete azalaki na bibwele ebele na se ya bangomba mpe na etando. Azalaki mpe na basali ebele oyo bazalaki kotimola mabele mpe kosala kati na bilanga na ye ya vino kati na bituka ya bangomba mpe na mabele oyo ebotaka malamu, pamba te azalaki kolinga mingi misala ya bilanga.
And he put up towers in the waste land and made places for storing water, for he had much cattle, in the low hills and in the table land; and he had farmers and vine-keepers in the mountains and in the fertile land, for he was a lover of farming.
11 Oziasi azalaki na basoda oyo baselingwa mpo na bitumba; mpe babongisamaki na masanga kolanda motango na bango ndenge Yeyeli, mokomi mikanda, mpe kalaka Maaseya, na bokambami ya Anania, moko kati na bakonzi ya bakalaka ya mokonzi, bazwaki bango na mosala.
In addition, Uzziah had an army of fighting-men who went out to war in bands, as they had been listed by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the authority of Hananiah, one of the king's captains.
12 Motango nyonso ya bakambi ya mabota, oyo bazalaki kokamba basoda ya mpiko, ezalaki nkoto mibale na nkama motoba.
The heads of families, the strong men of war, were two thousand, six hundred.
13 Bakonzi ya mabota bazalaki kokamba basoda nkoto nkama misato na sambo na nkama mitano oyo baselingwa mpo na bitumba mpe bazalaki basoda ya mpiko, mpo na kobundela mokonzi liboso ya banguna na ye.
And under their orders was a trained army of three hundred and seven thousand, five hundred, of great strength in war, helping the king against any who came against him.
14 Na tango nyonso ya bitumba, Oziasi azalaki kopesa banguba, makonga, bikoti ya bibende, bilamba ya bibende oyo ebatelaka tolo, matolotolo mpe bibambelo mabanga.
And Uzziah had all these forces armed with body-covers and spears and head-covers and coats of metal and bows and stones for sending from leather bands.
15 Asalisaki kati na Yelusalemi, epai ya bato ya mayele, bamashini mpo na kotia yango likolo ya bandako milayi mpe na suka ya bamir mpo na kobwaka makonga mpe mabanga minene. Kombo na ye ekendeki sango, pamba te asungamaki makasi kino kokoma moto na nguya.
And in Jerusalem he made machines, the invention of expert men, to be placed on the towers and angles of the walls for sending arrows and great stones. And his name was honoured far and wide; for he was greatly helped till he was strong.
16 Kasi tango Oziasi akomaki na nguya, atondaki na lolendo oyo ememaki ye na kokweya. Atambolaki lisusu na bosembo te liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye, kino kokota na Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na kotumba mbeka ya malasi na likolo ya etumbelo ya malasi.
But when he had become strong, his heart was lifted up in pride, causing his destruction; and he did evil against the Lord his God; for he went into the Temple of the Lord for the purpose of burning perfumes on the altar of perfumes.
17 Nganga-Nzambe Azaria alandaki Oziasi na sima, elongo na Banganga-Nzambe mosusu ya Yawe, tuku mwambe, bango nyonso batonda na mpiko.
And Azariah the priest went in after him, with eighty of the Lord's priests, who were strong men;
18 Batelemelaki mokonzi Oziasi mpe balobaki na ye: « Oziasi, kotumba mbeka ya malasi mpo na Yawe ezali mosala na yo te! Ezali nde mosala ya Banganga-Nzambe, bakitani ya Aron, oyo babulisama mpo na mosala yango. Bima wuta na Esika ya bule, pamba te ozali kosala likambo ya nkele, mpe Yawe Nzambe akosepela na yo te! »
And they made protests to Uzziah the king, and said to him, The burning of perfumes, Uzziah, is not your business but that of the priests, the sons of Aaron, who have been made holy for this work: go out of the holy place, for you have done wrong, and it will not be to your honour before God.
19 Bongo Oziasi, oyo asimbaki mbabola na loboko na ye, atombokelaki Banganga-Nzambe. Kaka na tango yango, wana azalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe liboso ya etumbelo ya ansa, bokono ya maba ebimaki na elongi na ye na miso ya Banganga-Nzambe.
Then Uzziah was angry; and he had in his hand a vessel for burning perfume; and while his wrath was bitter against the priests, the mark of the leper's disease came out on his brow, before the eyes of the priests in the house of the Lord by the altar of perfumes.
20 Tango Azaria, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, mpe Banganga-Nzambe mosusu batalaki ye mpe bamonaki ete akomi na bokono ya maba na elongi, babenganaki ye na lombangu wana ye moko mpe azalaki kobima na lombangu, pamba te Yawe asambwisaki ye.
And Azariah, the chief priest, and all the priests, looking at him, saw the mark of the leper on his brow, and they sent him out quickly and he himself went out straight away, for the Lord's punishment had come on him.
21 Mokonzi Oziasi abelaki bokono ya maba kino na mokolo na ye ya kufa. Lokola azalaki kobela bokono ya maba, akomaki kovanda na ndako moko batonga mosika, pamba te babenganaki ye mosika ya Tempelo ya Yawe. Yotami, mwana na ye ya mobali, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, ayangelaki bato ya mokili.
So King Uzziah was a leper till the day of his death, living separately in his private house; for he was cut off from the house of God; and Jotham his son was ruling over his house, judging the people of the land.
22 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Oziasi mpe misala na ye, kobanda na ebandeli kino na suka, ezali mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, nde akomaki yango.
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, were recorded by Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
23 Oziasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bango kati na lilita ya bakonzi, pamba te bato bazalaki koloba: « Abelaki bokono ya maba. » Yotami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
So Uzziah went to rest with his fathers; and they put his body into the earth in the field used for the resting-place of the kings, for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his place.
