2 Bakonzi 11
1 Tango Atali, mama ya Akazia, amonaki ete mwana na ye ya mobali akufi, abomisaki libota mobimba ya mokonzi.
Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2 Kasi Yeosheba, mwana mwasi ya mokonzi Yorami mpe ndeko ya Akazia, 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, mpo na kobomba ye mosika ya miso ya Atali; mpe Atali abomaki Joasi te.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king's sons that were slain, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bed-chamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3 Abombamaki elongo na ndesi na ye mibu motoba kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, wana Atali azalaki kokonza mokili.
And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years; and Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 Na mobu ya sambo, Yeoyada abengisaki bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko ya bato ya Kari mpe bakengeli. Abengisaki bango epai na ye kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, asalaki boyokani elongo na bango, alapisaki bango ndayi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe alakisaki bango mwana mobali ya mokonzi.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains over hundreds, of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and showed them the king's son.
5 Apesaki bango mitindo oyo: « Tala ndenge bokosala: kati na bandambo misato ya lisanga na bino, ndambo moko bakosala na mokolo ya Saba; ndambo ya liboso bakokengela ndako ya mokonzi,
And he commanded them, saying: 'This is the thing that ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, and that keep the watch of the king's house —
6 ndambo ya mibale bakozala na ekuke ya Suri, mpe ndambo ya misato bakokengela ekuke, na sima ya ndako ya bakengeli. Bandambo nyonso misato bakokitana, moko sima na mosusu, kati na mosala ya kokengela Tempelo.
now another third part was at the gate Sur, and another third part at the gate behind the guard — shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7 Bandambo mibale oyo bakosala te na mokolo ya Saba bakokengela Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na mokonzi.
And the other two parts of you, even all that go forth on the sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king.
8 Bakozingela mokonzi, moto na moto na ebundeli na ye na loboko. Moto nyonso oyo akopusana na molongo na bino, bosengeli koboma ye. Bozala pene ya mokonzi na bisika nyonso oyo akokende. »
And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that cometh within the ranks, let him be slain; and be ye with the king when he goeth out, and when he cometh in.'
9 Bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko basalaki nyonso oyo Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada atindaki. Moko na moko akamataki basoda na ye, ba-oyo bazalaki kokota na mosala na mokolo ya Saba mpe ba-oyo basilisaki mosala na bango na mokolo yango, mpe akendeki epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada.
And the captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with those that were to go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada apesaki na bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko makonga mpe banguba oyo ezalaki ya mokonzi Davidi, oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
And the priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spear and shields that had been king David's, which were in the house of the LORD.
11 Bakengeli bazingelaki mokonzi, moko na moko na ebundeli na ye na loboko, pembeni ya etumbelo mpe ya Tempelo, wuta na ngambo ya sude kino na ngambo ya nor ya Tempelo.
And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, by the king round about.
12 Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada abimisaki mwana mobali ya mokonzi, alatisaki ye motole mpe apesaki ye mokanda ya boyokani. Bakomisaki ye mokonzi mpe bapakolaki ye mafuta ya bokonzi. Bato babetaki maboko mpe bagangaki: « Tika ete mokonzi awumela na bomoi! »
Then he brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown and the insignia; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said: 'Long live the king.'
13 Tango Atali ayokaki makelele oyo bato mpe bakengeli bazalaki kosala, akendeki epai ya bato, na Tempelo ya Yawe.
And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the house of the LORD.
14 Atalaki mpe amonaki mokonzi atelemi na etemelo ya kolobela, ndenge ezalaki momesano. Bakonzi ya basoda mpe bato oyo babetaka bakelelo bazalaki pembeni ya mokonzi; bato nyonso ya mokili bazalaki kosepela wana bazalaki kobeta bakelelo. Atali apasolaki bilamba na ye mpe agangaki: « Basaleli ngai likita! Basaleli ngai likita! »
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood on the platform, as the manner was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried: 'Treason, treason.'
15 Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada apesaki mitindo epai ya bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko: « Bobimisa ye na molongo! Mpe boboma na mopanga moto nyonso oyo akolanda ye! » Pamba te Nganga-Nzambe alobaki: « Boboma ye te kati na Tempelo ya Yawe! »
And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them: 'Have her forth between the ranks; and him that followeth her slay with the sword'; for the priest said: 'Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.'
16 Boye, wana Atali azwaki nzela ya ekotelo ya bampunda mpo na kokende na ndako ya mokonzi, bakangaki ye mpe babomaki ye kuna.
So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entry to the king's house; and there was she slain.
17 Yeoyada asalaki boyokani kati na Yawe, mokonzi mpe bato, mpo ete bazala bato ya Yawe; asalaki lisusu boyokani kati na mokonzi mpe bato.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD'S people; between the king also and the people.
18 Bato nyonso ya mokili bakendeki na ndako ya nzambe Bala mpe babukaki yango elongo na bitumbelo mpe bikeko, mpe babomaki Matani, nganga-nzambe ya Bala, liboso ya bitumbelo. Nganga-Nzambe Yeoyada atiaki bakengeli ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
And all the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down; his altars and his images broke they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
19 Asangisaki bakonzi ya mampinga, oyo bakambaka basoda nkama moko, bato ya Kari, bakengeli mpe bato nyonso ya mokili; amemaki mokonzi longwa na Tempelo ya Yawe kino na ndako ya mokonzi, na nzela ya ekuke ya bakengeli. Bongo Joasi avandaki na kiti na ye ya bokonzi.
And he took the captains over hundreds, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard unto the king's house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
20 Bato nyonso ya mokili basepelaki, mpe engumba ekomaki na kimia, pamba te babomaki Atali na mopanga kati na ndako ya mokonzi.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they slew Athaliah with the sword at the king's house.
21 Joasi azalaki na mibu sambo ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi.
Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
