2 Bakonzi 11
1 Tango Atali, mama ya Akazia, amonaki ete mwana na ye ya mobali akufi, abomisaki libota mobimba ya mokonzi.
And 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 from among the king’s sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber 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 did reign 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 the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD, and 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 you shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of 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.
And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall you keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.
7 Bandambo mibale oyo bakosala te na mokolo ya Saba bakokengela Tempelo ya Yawe mpo na mokonzi.
And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they 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 you shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that comes within the ranges, let him be slain: and be you with the king as he goes out and as he comes 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 the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should 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 to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David’s spears and shields, that were in the temple 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, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple.
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! »
And he brought forth the king’s son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, God save 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 temple 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 when she looked, behold, the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was, and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and 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! »
But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said to them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that follows her kill with the sword. For the priest had 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.
And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into 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 into 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 rulers over hundreds, and the captains, 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 to 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.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king’s house.
21 Joasi azalaki na mibu sambo ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi.
Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.
