2 Masolo ya Kala 28
1 Akazi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na motoba na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe; nzokande, Davidi, koko na ye, asalaki makambo ya sembo.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father:
2 Alandaki banzela oyo bakonzi ya Isalaele batambolaki na yango mpe asalaki kutu banzambe ya bikeko ya bibende banyangwisa na moto mpo na banzambe Bala.
But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel and made images of metal for the Baals.
3 Atumbaki mbeka ya malasi kati na Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi mpe abonzaki bana na ye ya mibali na moto kolanda misala ya nkele ya bikolo oyo Yawe abenganaki liboso ya bana ya Isalaele.
More than this, he had offerings burned in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and made his children go through fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
4 Abonzaki bambeka mpe atumbaki mbeka ya malasi, na bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba, na bangomba mike mpe na se ya banzete ya mibesu.
And he made offerings and had perfumes burned in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.
5 Yawe, Nzambe na ye, akabaki ye na maboko ya mokonzi ya Siri. Bato ya Siri babetaki ye, bazwaki bato na ye ebele na bowumbu mpe bamemaki bango na Damasi. Nzambe akabaki ye lisusu na maboko ya mokonzi ya Isalaele, oyo abebisaki biloko na ye mpe alongaki ye.
So the Lord his God gave him up into the hands of the king of Aram; and they overcame him, and took away a great number of his people as prisoners to Damascus. Then he was given into the hands of the king of Israel, who sent great destruction on him.
6 Na mokolo moko, Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, abomaki basoda nkoto nkama moko na tuku mibale kati na Yuda, bango nyonso bazalaki basoda ya mpiko; pamba te basundolaki Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bango.
For Pekah, the son of Remaliah, in one day put to death a hundred and twenty thousand men of Judah, all of them good fighting-men; because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers.
7 Zikiri, moto ya bitumba ya Efrayimi, abomaki Maaseya, mwana mobali ya mokonzi; Azirikami, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi; mpe Elikana, molandi ya mokonzi.
And Zichri, a great fighting-man of Ephraim, put to death Maaseiah, the king's son, and Azrikam, the controller of his house, and Elkanah, who was second in authority to the king.
8 Bato ya Isalaele bakangaki kati na bandeko na bango bato nkoto nkama mibale: basi, bana mibali mpe bana basi; bazwaki bomengo ebele ya bitumba mpe bamemaki yango na Samari.
And the children of Israel took away as prisoners from their brothers, two hundred thousand, women and sons and daughters, and a great store of their goods, and took them to Samaria.
9 Kuna na Samari, ezalaki na mosakoli moko ya Yawe, kombo na ye « Odedi. » Abimaki liboso ya mampinga tango bazalaki kozonga na Samari mpe alobaki na bango: « Tala, na kanda makasi na Ye mpo na Yuda, Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bino, akabi bango na maboko na bino, mpe bobomi bango na kanda oyo ekomi kino na likolo.
But a prophet of the Lord was there, named Oded; and he went out in front of the army which was coming into Samaria and said to them, Truly, because the Lord, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he gave them up into your hands, and you have put them to death in an outburst of wrath stretching up to heaven.
10 Mpe sik’oyo, bolingi kokomisa bato ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi bawumbu na bino? Kasi bino moko, bozali mpe na ngambo te liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino?
And now your purpose is to keep the children of Judah and Jerusalem as men-servants and women-servants under your yoke: but are there no sins against the Lord your God to be seen among yourselves?
11 Boyoka ngai sik’oyo! Bozongisa bandeko na bino, oyo bokangi lokola bawumbu, pamba te kanda makasi ya Yawe ezali likolo na bino. »
And now give ear to me, and send back the prisoners whom you have taken from your brothers: for the wrath of the Lord is burning against you.
12 Kati na bakambi ya Efrayimi, bamosusu batelemelaki ba-oyo bawutaki na bitumba. Ezalaki Azaria, mwana mobali ya Yoanani; Berekia, mwana mobali ya Meshilemoti; Ezekiasi, mwana mobali ya Shalumi; mpe Amasa, mwana mobali ya Adilayi.
Then certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah, the son of Johanan, Berechiah, the son of Meshillemoth Jehizkiah, the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, put themselves against those who had come from the war,
13 Balobaki na bango: « Bosengeli te komema bakangami oyo awa, soki te tokomema ngambo epai na Yawe. Boni, bolingi lisusu kobakisa masumu mpe ngambo na biso! Ngambo na biso eleki penza monene, mpe kanda makasi ya Yawe ezali likolo ya Isalaele. »
And said to them, You are not to let these prisoners come here; for what you are designing to do will be a cause of sin against the Lord to us, making even greater our sin and our wrongdoing, which now are great enough, and his wrath is burning against Israel.
14 Basoda batikaki bakangami mpe bomengo ya bitumba na miso ya bakambi mpe ya lisanga mobimba.
So the armed men gave up the prisoners and the goods they had taken to the heads and the meeting of the people.
15 Sima, bato oyo baponaki na bakombo na bango bazwaki bakangami mpe balendisaki bango; bazwaki kati na bomengo ya bitumba bilamba, mpe balatisaki ba-oyo nyonso bazalaki bolumbu. Bapesaki bango bilamba, basapato, bilei mpe masanga; mpe bapakolaki ba-oyo bazokaki kisi, bamemaki na likolo ya ba-ane ba-oyo bakokaki kotambola te mpe bazongisaki bango na Jeriko, engumba ya banzete ya mbila, epai ya bandeko na bango. Sima, bazongaki na Samari.
And those men who have been named went up and took the prisoners, clothing those among them who were uncovered, with things from the goods which had been taken in the war, and putting robes on them and shoes on their feet; and they gave them food and drink and oil for their bodies, and seating all the feeble among them on asses, they took them to Jericho, the town of palm-trees, to their people, and then went back to Samaria.
16 Na tango yango, mokonzi Akazi atindaki bato epai ya bakonzi ya Asiri mpo na kosenga lisungi.
At that time King Ahaz sent for help to the king of Assyria.
17 Bato ya Edomi bayaki lisusu kobundisa Yuda mpe bamemaki bakangami,
For the Edomites had come again, attacking Judah and taking away prisoners.
18 wana bato ya Filisitia bakotaki na makasi kati na bingumba ya etando mpe ya sude ya Yuda. Bazwaki na makasi Beti-Shemeshi, Ayaloni, Gederoti, Soko, Timina mpe Gimizo elongo na bamboka na yango ya zingazinga, mpe bavandaki kuna.
And the Philistines, forcing their way into the towns of the lowlands and the south of Judah, had taken Beth-shemesh and Aijalon and Gederoth and Soco, with their daughter-towns, as well as Timnah and Gimzo and their daughter-towns, and were living there.
19 Yawe asambwisaki Yuda likolo ya Akazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, pamba te atindikaki bato ya Yuda na mabe mpe azangaki boyengebene liboso ya Yawe.
For the Lord made Judah low, because of Ahaz, king of Israel; for he had given up all self-control in Judah, sinning greatly against the Lord.
20 Na esika ya kosunga ye, Tigilati-Pilezeri, mokonzi ya Asiri, ayaki kobundisa ye mpe azwaki ye lokola monguna.
Then Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, came to him, but was a cause of trouble and not of strength to him.
21 Akazi azwaki ndambo ya biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe, ya ndako ya mokonzi mpe ya bandako ya bakambi; mpe apesaki yango epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri. Kasi atako bongo, azwaki kaka lisungi te.
For Ahaz took a part of the wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the house of the king and of the great men, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it was no help to him.
22 Wana azalaki kati na pasi, mokonzi Akazi akobaki lisusu kosala makambo ya nkele na miso ya Yawe:
And in the time of his trouble, this same King Ahaz did even more evil against the Lord.
23 abonzaki bambeka epai ya banzambe ya Damasi oyo elongaki ye, pamba te amilobelaki: « Lokola banzambe ya bakonzi ya Siri bayaka kosunga bato na bango, ngai mpe nakobonzela bango bambeka mpo ete baya kosunga ngai! » Kasi esalaki ete ye akweyisama, Isalaele mobimba mpe ekweyisama.
For he made offerings to the gods of Damascus, who were attacking him, and said, Because the gods of the kings of Aram are giving them help, I will make offerings to them so that they may give me help. But they were the cause of his downfall, and of that of all Israel.
24 Akazi asangisaki bisalelo nyonso ya Tempelo ya Nzambe mpe abukaki-bukaki yango. Akangaki bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe atongaki bitumbelo na babalabala nyonso ya Yelusalemi.
And Ahaz got together the vessels of the house of God, cutting up all the vessels of the house of God, and shutting the doors of the Lord's house; and he made altars in every part of Jerusalem.
25 Kati na bingumba nyonso ya Yuda, asalaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpo na kobonza mbeka ya malasi epai ya banzambe mosusu. Na bongo, apesaki Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, kanda makasi.
And in every town of Judah he made high places where perfumes were burned to other gods, awaking the wrath of the Lord, the God of his fathers.
26 Makambo mosusu oyo etali mokonzi Akazi mpe etamboli na ye, kobanda na ebandeli kino na suka, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele.
Now the rest of his acts and all his ways, first and last, are recorded in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Akazi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye kati na engumba Yelusalemi, kasi kati na bakunda ya bakonzi ya Isalaele te. Ezekiasi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the earth in Jerusalem; but they did not put him in the resting-place of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
