< 2 Masolo ya Kala 36 >
1 Bato ya mokili bazwaki Yoakazi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kokitana na tata na ye.
Then the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and made him king instead of his father in Jerusalem.
2 Yoakazi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na misato ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato na Yelusalemi.
Joachaz was three and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
3 Mokonzi ya Ejipito alongolaki ye na bokonzi kati na Yelusalemi mpe asengaki na makasi ete mokili ya Yuda ekoma kofuta mpako mpo na mokonzi: bakilo nkoto misato na nkama minei ya palata mpe ya wolo.
And the king of Egypt came to Jerusalem, and deposed him, and condemned the land in a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
4 Mokonzi ya Ejipito akomisaki Eliakimi, ndeko mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Yelusalemi mpe ya Yuda; abongolaki kombo na ye mpe akomisaki yango « Yeoyakimi. » Kasi Neko akangaki Yoakazi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mpe amemaki ye na Ejipito.
And he made Eliakim his brother king in his stead, over Juda and Jerusalem: and he turned his name to Joakim: but he took Joachaz with him, and carried him away into Egypt.
5 Yeoyakimi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
Joakim was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did evil before the Lord his God.
6 Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, abundisaki ye mpe akangaki ye minyololo ya bronze mpo na komema ye na Babiloni.
Against him came up Nabuchodonosor king of the Chaldeans, and led him bound in chains into Babylon.
7 Nabukodonozori amemaki mpe na Babiloni ndambo ya biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe atiaki yango kati na ndako na ye ya bokonzi.
And he carried also thither the vessels of the Lord, and put them in his temple.
8 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, misala na ye ya nkele mpe makambo oyo ekweyelaki ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda. Yeoyakini, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
But the rest of the acts of Joakim, and his abominations, which he wrought, and the things that were found in him, are contained in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel. And Joachin his son reigned in his stead.
9 Yeoyakini azalaki na mibu zomi na mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato mpe mikolo zomi na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe.
Joachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
10 Na suka ya mobu, mokonzi Nabukodonozori abengisaki ye mpe amemaki ye na Babiloni elongo na biloko ya motuya ya Tempelo ya Yawe; akomisaki Sedesiasi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi.
And at the return of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, carrying away at the same time the most precious vessels of the house of the Lord: and he made Sedecias his uncle king over Juda and Jerusalem.
11 Sedesiasi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na moko ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi.
Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
12 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye, mpe amikitisaki te liboso ya mosakoli Jeremi oyo azalaki koloba na Kombo na Yawe.
And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God, and did not reverence the face of Jeremias the prophet speaking to him from the mouth of the Lord.
13 Lisusu, atombokelaki mokonzi Nabukodonozori oyo alapisaki ye ndayi na Kombo ya Nzambe. Na esika ete azonga epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, akomaki moto makasi mpe akomisaki motema na ye libanga.
He also revolted from king Nabuchodonosor, who had made him swear by God: and he hardened his neck and his heart, from returning to the Lord the God of Israel.
14 Bakonzi nyonso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato bakomaki lisusu kosala mabe koleka, balandaki misala nyonso ya nkele ya bikolo ya bapaya mpe babebisaki bosantu ya Tempelo ya Yawe oyo Ye moko Yawe abulisaki na Yelusalemi.
Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people wickedly transgressed according to all the abominations of the Gentiles: and they defiled the house of the Lord, which he had sanctified to himself in Jerusalem.
15 Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, atindelaki bango, mbala na mbala mpe na ngonga malamu, makebisi na nzela ya bamemi sango na Ye, pamba te azalaki na posa ya kobatela bato na Ye mpe Tempelo na Ye.
And the Lord the God of their fathers sent to them, by the hand of his messengers, rising early, and daily admonishing them: because he spared his people and his dwelling place.
16 Kasi bato ya Isalaele bazalaki kotiola bamemi sango ya Nzambe, bazalaki komona pamba makebisi na Ye mpe bazalaki kowolola basakoli na Ye kino Yawe kosilikela bato na Ye makasi; mpe bakokaki kosala eloko moko te mpo na komibikisa liboso ya kanda makasi ya Yawe.
But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused the prophets, until the wrath of the Lord arose against his people, and there was no remedy.
17 Boye, mpo na kobebisa bango, Yawe atindaki mokonzi ya bato ya Babiloni, oyo abomaki na mopanga bilenge na bango kati na esika na bango ya bule; abikisaki te ezala elenge mobali, elenge mwasi, mokolo to mobange. Nzambe akabaki nyonso na maboko ya Nabukodonozori.
For he brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans, and he slew their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, he had no compassion on young man, or maiden, old man or even him that stooped for age, but he delivered them all into his hands.
18 Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni biloko nyonso ya Tempelo ya Nzambe, ya minene to ya mike, bozwi ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bozwi ya mokonzi mpe ya bakalaka na ye.
And all the vessels of the house of the Lord, great and small, and the treasures of the temple and of the king, and of the princes he carried away to Babylon.
19 Batumbaki na moto Tempelo ya Nzambe, babukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, batumbaki na moto bandako na yango ya kitoko mpe babebisaki biloko nyonso ya motuya.
And the enemies set fire to the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, burnt all the towers, and whatsoever was precious they destroyed.
20 Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni bato oyo babikaki na mopanga, akomisaki bango bawumbu na ye mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali kino na tango mokili ya Persi ezwaki bokonzi.
Whosoever escaped the sword, was led into Babylon, and there served the king and his sons till the reign of the king of Persia.
21 Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Liloba na Yawe ekokisamaki, liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi: « Mokili ekozwa bopemi na mikolo nyonso oyo bakosundola yango, ekosepela na basaba na yango kino tango mibu tuku sambo ekokoka. »
That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, and the land might keep her sabbaths: for all the days of the desolation she kept a sabbath, till the seventy years were expired.
22 Na mobu ya liboso ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Yawe alamusaki molimo ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi mpo ete asakola mpe akoma boye kati na mokili na ye mobimba:
But in the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, to fulfill the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the heart of Cyrus king of the Persians who commanded it to be proclaimed through all his kingdom, and by writing also, saying:
23 « Tala makambo oyo Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, alobi: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe ya Likolo, apesi ngai babokonzi nyonso ya mabele mpe mokumba ya kotongela Ye Tempelo, na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda. Tika ete moto nyonso oyo, kati na bino, azali na molongo ya bato ya Yawe akende; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na ye, azali elongo na ye! › »
Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given to me, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea: who is there among you of all his people? The Lord his God be with him, and let him go up.
