2 Bakonzi 15

1 Tango Jeroboami, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akokisaki mibu tuku mibale na sambo na bokonzi, Azaria, mwana mobali ya Amatsia, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign.

2 Azalaki na mibu zomi na motoba ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mitano na mibale na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yekolia. » Yekolia azalaki moto ya Yelusalemi.

Azariah was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jekoliah, and she was from Jerusalem.

3 Azaria asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe ndenge kaka Amatsia, tata na ye, asalaki.

He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, just as his father Amaziah had done.

4 Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa.

However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.

5 Yawe abetaki mokonzi, mpe mokonzi abelaki bokono ya maba kino na mokolo na ye ya kufa. Boye akomaki kovanda na ndako moko batonga mosika. Yotami, mwana mobali ya mokonzi, oyo azalaki mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, ayangelaki bato ya mokili.

Yahweh afflicted the king so that he was a leper to the day of his death and lived in a separate house. Jotham, the king's son, was over the household and ruled the people of the land.

6 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Azaria mpe misala na ye nyonso, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.

As for the other matters concerning Azariah, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?

7 Azaria akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi; mpe Yotami, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

So Azariah slept with his ancestors; they buried him with his ancestors in the city of David. Jotham, his son, became king in his place.

8 Tango Azaria, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na mwambe na bokonzi, Zakari, mwana mobali ya Jeroboami, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari; mpe akonzaki basanza motoba.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel in Samaria for six months.

9 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe ndenge bakoko na ye basalaki. Atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as his fathers had done. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.

10 Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Yabeshi, asalelaki Zakari likita, abundisaki ye liboso ya bato, abomaki ye mpe akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah, attacked him in Ibleam, and killed him. Then he became king in his place.

11 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Zakari, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the other matters concerning Zechariah, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

12 Boye nde Liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na Jewu ekokisamaki: « Bakitani na yo bakovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya Isalaele kino na molongo ya minei. »

This was the word of Yahweh that he spoke to Jehu, saying, “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.” That is what happened.

13 Tango Oziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na libwa na bokonzi, Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Yabeshi, akomaki mokonzi. Akonzaki na Samari sanza moko.

Shallum son of Jabesh began to reign in the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, and he reigned only one month in Samaria.

14 Bongo Menayeme, mwana mobali ya Gadi, alongwaki na Tiritsa mpe akendeki na Samari. Abundisaki Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Yabeshi, na Samari; abomaki ye mpe akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

Menahem son of Gadi went up from Tirzah to Samaria. There he attacked Shallum son of Jabesh, in Samaria. He killed him and became king in his place.

15 Makambo mosusu oyo etali Shalumi, misala na ye mpe likita oyo asalaki, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the other matters concerning Shallum and the conspiracy that he formed, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

16 Na tango wana, Menayeme abundisaki engumba Tifisa, abomaki bato nyonso ya engumba mpe abebisaki zingazinga na yango, kobanda na Tiritsa, pamba te baboyaki kofungolela ye bikuke ya engumba na bango. Abebisaki engumba yango mpe atobolaki mabumu ya basi nyonso ya zemi.

Then Menahem attacked Tiphsah and all who were there, and the borders around Tirzah, because they did not open up the city to him. So he attacked it, and he ripped open all the pregnant women in that village.

17 Tango Azaria, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na libwa na bokonzi, Menayeme, mwana mobali ya Gadi, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele mpe akonzaki na Samari mibu zomi.

In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi began to reign over Israel; he reigned ten years in Samaria.

18 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Na tango nyonso ya bokonzi na ye, atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. For his whole life, he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.

19 Bongo Puli, mokonzi ya Asiri, akotaki na makasi kati na mboka, mpe Menayeme apesaki ye bakilo ya palata, nkoto tuku misato na minei mpo ete Puli asunga ye na kolendisa bokonzi na ye.

Then Pul the king of Assyria came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, so that Pul's support might be with him to strengthen the kingdom of Israel in his hand.

20 Menayeme azwaki palata yango na Isalaele. Mozwi nyonso asengelaki kofuta mpako ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, tuku mitano mpo ete bapesa yango epai ya mokonzi ya Asiri. Na bongo, mokonzi ya Asiri alongwaki na mokili mpe azongaki epai na ye.

Menahem exacted this money from Israel by requiring each of the wealthy men to pay fifty shekels of silver to him to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back and did not stay there in the land.

21 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Menayeme mpe misala na ye nyonso, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the other matters concerning Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?

22 Menayeme akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye. Pekakia, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

So Menahem slept with his ancestors, and Pekahiah his son became king in his place.

23 Tango Azaria, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku mitano na bokonzi, Pekakia, mwana mobali ya Menayeme, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele na Samari, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na mibale.

In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria; he reigned two years.

24 Pekakia asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. He did not leave behind the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, by which he had caused Israel to sin.

25 Moko kati na bakonzi na ye ya basoda, Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, asalelaki ye likita. Na lisungi ya bato tuku mitano ya Galadi, Peka abomaki Pekakia kati na ndako ya mokonzi, na Samari, na lisungi ya Arigobi mpe Arie. Boye Peka abomaki Pekakia mpe akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

Pekahiah had an officer named Pekah son of Remaliah, who conspired against him. Along with fifty men of Gilead, Pekah killed Pekahiah as well as Argob and Arieh in Samaria, in the citadel of the king's palace. Pekah killed Pekahiah and became king in his place.

26 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Pekakia mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the other matters concerning Pekahiah, all that he did, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

27 Tango Azaria, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku mitano na mibale na bokonzi, Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, akomaki mokonzi ya Isalaele, na Samari; mpe akonzaki mibu tuku mibale.

In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria; he reigned twenty years.

28 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe. Atikaki te masumu ya Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, masumu oyo na nzela na yango akweyisaki Isalaele.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.

29 Na tango ya Peka, mokonzi ya Isalaele, Tigilati-Pilezeri, mokonzi ya Asiri, ayaki kokota na makasi mpe azwaki bingumba Iyoni, Abele-Beti-Maaka, Yanoa, Kedeshi, Atsori mpe Galadi. Akamataki lisusu Galile kati na mokili ya Nefitali, mpe amemaki na makasi bato na Asiri.

In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came and took Ijon, Abel Beth Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, Galilee, and all the land of Naphtali. He carried away the people to Assyria.

30 Bongo Oze, mwana mobali ya Ela, asalaki likita mpo na kotelemela Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia. Abundisaki ye mpe abomaki ye, bongo akitanaki na ye na bokonzi tango Yotami, mwana mobali ya Oziasi, akokisaki mibu tuku mibale na bokonzi.

So Hoshea son of Elah formed a conspiracy against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked him and killed him. Then he became king in his place, in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah.

31 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Peka mpe misala na ye nyonso, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele.

As for the other matters concerning Pekah, all that he did, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

32 Tango Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, mokonzi ya Isalaele, akokisaki mibu mibale na bokonzi, Yotami, mwana mobali ya Oziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akomaki mokonzi.

In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, Jotham son of Azariah, king of Judah began to reign.

33 Yotami azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na motoba na Yelusalemi. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Yerusha. » Yerusha azalaki mwana ya Tsadoki.

He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jerushah; she was the daughter of Zadok.

34 Yotami asalaki makambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe ndenge kaka Oziasi, tata na ye, asalaki.

Jotham did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh. He followed the example of all his father Azariah had done.

35 Nzokande, balongolaki te bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba; bato bakobaki kaka kobonza kuna bambeka mpe kotumba ansa. Ezali Yotami nde atongaki ekuke ya likolo ya Tempelo ya Yawe.

However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places. Jotham built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh.

36 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Yotami mpe misala na ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda.

As for the other matters concerning Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?

37 Na mikolo wana, Yawe abandaki kotinda Retsini, mokonzi ya Siri, mpe Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, mpo na kobundisa Yuda.

In those days Yahweh began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Aram, and Pekah son of Remaliah.

38 Yotami akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye esika moko na bakoko na ye kati na engumba ya Davidi, koko na ye. Akazi, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.

Jotham slept with his ancestors and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David, his ancestor. Then Ahaz, his son, became king in his place.
