< 2 Bakonzi 14 >
1 Na mobu ya mibale ya bokonzi ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.
In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.
2 Amatsia azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale na libwa na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yeoyadani. » Yeoyadani azalaki moto ya Yelusalemi.
He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.
3 Amatsia asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe, kasi ezalaki te lokola Davidi, koko na ye. Na makambo nyonso, alandaki ndakisa ya Joasi, tata na ye.
And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:
4 Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.
But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
5 Sima na Amatsia kolendisa bokonzi na ye, abomaki bakalaka oyo babomaki tata na ye.
And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:
6 Kasi abomaki te bana mibali ya babomi ya tata na ye, pamba te, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Mobeko ya Moyize, Yawe apesaki mitindo oyo: « Bakoboma batata te mpo na bana na bango to mpe bakoboma bana te mpo na batata na bango; bakoboma moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye moko. »
But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.
7 Ezali Amatsia nde moto alongaki bato ya Edomi, nkoto zomi na Lubwaku ya Mungwa, mpe abotolaki na bitumba engumba ya Sela; mpe abengaki yango « Yokiteyeli, » kombo oyo babengelaka yango kino lelo.
He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.
8 Bongo Amatsia atindaki bantoma epai ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi mpe koko ya Jewu, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpo na koyebisa ye: — Yaka tobunda!
Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.
9 Kasi Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, azongiselaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda: — Mokolo moko, nzete ya sende ya Libani etindaki maloba epai ya nzete ya sedele ya Libani: « Balisa mwana na yo ya mwasi epai ya mwana na ngai ya mobali. » Kasi nyama moko ya zamba elekaki mpe enyataki nzete ya sende.
And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.
10 Solo, olongi Edomi, mpe motema na yo ezali komikumisa. Sepela na yo, kasi vanda na ndako na yo. Mpo na nini koluka ete pasi makasi ekweyela yo elongo na Yuda?
Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?
11 Kasi Amatsia ayokaki ye te. Boye, Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akendeki kobundisa Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda. Ye mpe Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, babundaki na Beti-Shemeshi kati na mokili ya Yuda.
But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.
12 Isalaele alongaki Yuda, mpe bato ya Yuda bakimaki, moto na moto na ndako na ye.
And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.
13 Joasi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akangaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi mpe koko ya Akazia, na Beti-Shemeshi. Boye Joasi akendeki na Yelusalemi mpe abukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, na molayi ya bametele pene nkama moko na tuku mwambe, longwa na ekuke ya Efrayimi kino na ekuke ya suka.
But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
14 Akamataki wolo nyonso, palata nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na bibombelo ya ndako ya mokonzi; akangaki bato na bowumbu mpe azongaki na Samari.
And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
15 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Joasi, misala na ye mpe elonga na ye tango abundisaki Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
But the rest of the acts of Joas, which he did, and his valour, wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
16 Joasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na Samari esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele. Mpe Jeroboami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
17 Amatsia, mwana mobali ya Joasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, awumelaki lisusu na bomoi mibu zomi na mitano sima na kufa ya Joasi, mwana mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
18 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Amatsia mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.
And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
19 Basalelaki ye likita, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kotelemela ye, mpe akimaki na Lakishi. Kasi batindaki bato mpo ete balanda ye kino na Lakishi, mpe babomaki ye kuna.
Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.
20 Bamemaki nzoto na ye na likolo ya mpunda mpe bakundaki ye na Yelusalemi, esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi.
And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21 Bato nyonso ya Yuda bakamataki Azaria oyo azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi na esika ya tata na ye, Amatsia.
And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.
22 Ezalaki ye nde moto atongaki lisusu engumba ya Eyilati mpe azongisaki yango na Yuda sima na kufa ya tata na ye, mokonzi Amatsia.
He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.
23 Tango Amatsia, mokonzi ya Yuda, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akokisaki mibu zomi na mitano na bokonzi, Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari mpe akonzaki mibu tuku minei na moko.
In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:
24 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe mpe atikaki te masumu nyonso ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.
And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
25 Ezalaki ye nde moto abotolaki lisusu bamboka ya Isalaele longwa na Lebo-Amati kino na ebale monene ya Araba, kolanda Liloba na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosali na Ye, mosakoli Yona, mwana mobali ya Amitayi, moto ya Gati-Eferi.
He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.
26 Yawe amonaki ndenge nini bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki konyokwama. Ezala bawumbu to bansomi, moto moko te akokaki kosunga bango.
For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.
27 Lokola Yawe alobaki te ete akolimwisa kombo ya Isalaele na se ya moyi, abikisaki bango na nzela ya loboko ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi.
And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.
28 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Jeroboami, misala na ye nyonso mpe elonga na ye na bitumba, ezala ndenge azongisaki na se ya bokonzi ya Isalaele Damasi mpe Amati, bingumba mibale oyo ezalaki ya Yuda, nyonso wana ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.
But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
29 Jeroboami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye, bakonzi ya Isalaele; mpe Zakari, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
