< 2 Bakonzi 6 >
1 Mokolo moko, bayekoli ya basakoli balobaki na Elize: — Tala! Esika oyo tosanganaka elongo na yo ekomi moke mingi mpo na biso.
And the children of the Prophets saide vnto Elisha, Behold, we pray thee, the place where we dwell with thee, is too litle for vs.
2 Pesa biso nzela ya kokende na ebale Yordani epai wapi moko na moko kati na biso akoki kozwa nzete mpo na kotonga kuna esika ya kovanda. Elize alobaki na bango: — Bokende!
Let vs nowe goe to Iorden, that we may take thence euery man a beame, and make vs a place to dwell in. And he answered, Goe.
3 Moko kati na bango alobaki: — Okosepela te kokende elongo na basali na yo? Elize azongisaki: — Nandimi, nakokende.
And one said, Vouchsafe, I pray thee, to go with thy seruants, and he answered, I will goe.
4 Boye akendeki elongo na bango. Bakendeki na ebale Yordani mpe babandaki kokata banzete.
So he went with them, and when they came to Iorden, they cut downe wood.
5 Wana moko kati na bango azalaki kokata nzete, ebende ya epasola na ye ekweyaki na mayi. Agangaki: — Ah, nkolo na ngai! Nadefaki yango kodefa!
And as one was felling of a tree, the yron fell into the water: then he cryed, and said, Alas master, it was but borowed.
6 Moto na Nzambe atunaki: — Ekweyaki na esika nini? Sima na ye kolakisa ye esika yango, Elize akataki eteni ya nzete mpe abwakaki yango na esika oyo ebende ya epasola ekweyaki. Mpe, na mbala moko, eteni ya nzete yango ematisaki ebende na likolo ya mayi, mpe ebende ekomaki kotepa.
And the man of God saide, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. Then he cut downe a piece of wood, and cast in thither, and he caused the yron to swimme.
7 Elize alobaki: — Kamata yango! Boye, mosali wana asembolaki loboko na ye mpe akamataki yango.
Then he saide, Take it vp to thee. And he stretched out his hand, and tooke it.
8 Mokonzi ya Siri azalaki kobundisa bana ya Isalaele. Asololaki na basali na ye mpe alobaki: « Nakotia molako na ngai na esika songolo to pakala. »
Then the King of Aram warred against Israel, and tooke counsell with his seruants, and said, In such and such a place shalbe my campe.
9 Mbala moko, moto na Nzambe atindaki maloba oyo epai ya mokonzi ya Isalaele: « Keba! Koleka na esika wana te, pamba te bato ya Siri bazali kokita kuna. »
Therefore the man of God sent vnto the King of Israel, saying, Beware thou goe not ouer to such a place: for there the Aramites are come downe.
10 Mokonzi ya Isalaele atindaki bato kokende kononga esika oyo moto na Nzambe alobelaki. Mbala ebele, Elize azalaki kokebisa mokonzi ete azala na bokebi na bisika ya ndenge wana; mpe mbala ebele, mokonzi ya Isalaele azalaki komibikisa na motambo ya bato ya Siri.
So the King of Israel sent to the place which the man of God tolde him, and warned him of, and saued himselfe from thence, not once, nor twise.
11 Suka na suka, mokonzi ya Siri asilikaki makasi, abengisaki bakalaka na ye mpe atunaki bango: — Bokoki te koyebisa ngai nani kati na biso azali na ngambo ya mokonzi ya Isalaele?
And the heart of the King of Aram was troubled for this thing: therefore he called his seruants and saide vnto them, Will ye not shewe me, which of vs bewrayeth our counsel to the king of Israel?
12 Moko kati na bakalaka na ye alobaki: — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, moko te kati na biso. Ezali nde mosakoli Elize oyo azali kati na Isalaele; ye nde ayebaka mpe ayebisaka mokonzi ya Isalaele ata makambo oyo olobaka kati na shambre na yo ya kolala.
Then one of his seruants saide, None, my lorde, O King, but Elisha the Prophet that is in Israel, telleth the King of Israel, euen the wordes that thou speakest in thy priuie chamber.
13 Mokonzi apesaki mitindo: — Bokende koluka esika oyo azali mpo ete natinda bato mpo na kokanga ye. Bayaki koyebisa ye: — Azali na Dotani.
And he said, Goe, and espie where he is, that I may sende and fetch him. And one tolde him, saying, Beholde, he is in Dothan.
14 Bongo mokonzi atindaki kuna bampunda elongo na bashar mpe basoda ebele. Bakendeki kuna na butu mpe bazingelaki engumba.
So he sent thither horses, and charets, and a mightie hoste: and they came by night, and compassed the citie.
15 Na tongo-tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, tango mosali ya moto na Nzambe alamukaki mpe abimaki, amonaki ete mampinga elongo na bampunda mpe bashar bazingelaki engumba. Mosali yango alobaki na Elize: — Oh nkolo na ngai, eyindi na libanda! Tokosala nini!
And when the seruant of the man of God arose earely to goe out, beholde, an hoste compassed the citie with horses and charets. Then his seruant sayde vnto him, Alas master, howe shall we doe?
16 Mosakoli azongisaki: — Kobanga te, pamba te ba-oyo bazali elongo na biso bazali ebele koleka ba-oyo bazali elongo na bango.
And he answered, Feare not: for they that be with vs, are moe then they that be with them.
17 Elize asambelaki: — Oh Yawe, fungola ye miso mpo ete amona! Yawe afungolaki miso ya mosali, mpe mosali atalaki; amonaki bangomba mike etonda na bampunda mpe bashar ya moto zingazinga ya Elize.
Then Elisha prayed, and saide, Lord, I beseech thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the seruant, and he looked, and beholde, the mountaine was full of horses and charets of fyre round about Elisha.
18 Lokola monguna azalaki kopusana pene na ye, Elize asambelaki Yawe: — Boma ekolo oyo miso! Mpe Yawe abomaki bango miso, ndenge kaka Elize asengaki.
So they came downe to him, but Elisha prayed vnto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindnesse. And he smote them with blindnes, according to the worde of Elisha.
19 Elize alobaki na bango: — Nzela ezali awa te! Engumba mpe ezali awa te! Bolanda ngai, mpe nakomema bino epai ya moto oyo bozali koluka. Elize amemaki bango na Samari.
And Elisha said vnto them, This is not the way, neither is this the citie: follow me, and I will leade you to the man whome ye seeke. But he ledde them to Samaria.
20 Tango bakotaki na engumba, Elize asambelaki lisusu: — Yawe, fungola miso ya bato oyo mpo ete bamona. Yawe afungolaki miso na bango, mpe bamonaki ete bazali kati na engumba Samari.
And when they were come to Samaria, Elisha saide, Lord, open their eyes that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw, and beholde, they were in the mids of Samaria.
21 Tango mokonzi ya Isalaele amonaki bango, atunaki Elize: — Tata na ngai, naboma bango? Naboma bango?
And the King of Israel sayde vnto Elisha when he sawe them, My father, shall I smite them, shall I smite them?
22 Elize azongisaki: — Koboma bango te! Boni, okoboma solo bato oyo okangi, na nzela ya mopanga na yo to ya tolotolo na yo? Pesa bango nde bilei mpe mayi ya komela mpo ete balia, bamela mpe bazonga epai ya mokonzi na bango.
And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: doest thou not smite them that thou hast taken with thy sworde, and with thy bowe? but set bread and water before them, that they may eate and drinke and goe to their master.
23 Boye abongisaki feti monene mpo na bango. Tango basilisaki kolia mpe komela, azongisaki bango. Mpe bazongaki epai ya mokonzi na bango. Wuta tango yango, mampinga ya Siri batikaki kokota mpo na kobundisa Isalaele.
And he made great preparation for them: and when they had eaten and drunken, he sent them away: and they went to their master. So ye bands of Aram came no more into the land of Israel.
24 Sima na tango, Beni-Adadi, mokonzi ya Siri, asangisaki mampinga na ye nyonso mpe akendeki kozingela engumba Samari.
But afterward Ben-hadad King of Aram gathered all his hoste, and went vp, and besieged Samaria.
25 Lokola bazingelaki Samari tango molayi, nzala makasi ekotaki kati na engumba kino moto moko ya ane ekomaki kotekama na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, tuku mwambe; mpe bagrame nkama mibale na tuku mitano ya nyei ekawuka ya ebenga ekomaki kotekama na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, mitano.
So there was a great famine in Samaria: for loe, they besieged it vntill an asses head was at foure score pieces of siluer, and the fourth part of a kab of doues doung at fiue pieces of siluer.
26 Mokolo moko, wana mokonzi ya Isalaele azalaki koleka na likolo ya mir ya lopango, mwasi moko agangaki epai na ye: — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, sunga ngai!
And as the King of Israel was going vpon the wall, there cryed a woman vnto him, saying, Helpe, my lord, O King.
27 Mokonzi azongisaki: — Soki Yawe asungi yo te, esika nini ngai nakozwa lisungi mpo na kosunga yo? Nazangi vino to ble ya kopesa yo.
And he said, Seeing the Lord doeth not succour thee, howe shoulde I helpe thee with the barne, or with the wine presse?
28 Nzokande, mokonzi atunaki ye lisusu: — Likambo nini ekomeli yo? Mwasi azongisaki: — Mwasi wana alobaki na ngai: « Pesa mwana na yo ya mobali mpo ete tolia ye lelo, bongo lobi, tokolia mwana na ngai. »
Also the King said vnto her, What ayleth thee? And she answered, This woman sayde vnto me, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him to day, and we will eate my sonne to morowe,
29 Boye tolambaki mwana na ngai ya mobali mpe toliaki ye. Mokolo oyo elandaki, nalobaki na ye: « Pesa mwana na yo ya mobali mpo ete tolia ye, » kasi abombaki ye.
So we sod my sonne, and did eate him: and I saide to her the day after, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him, but she hath hid her sonne.
30 Tango mokonzi ayokaki maloba ya mwasi oyo, apasolaki bilamba na ye. Lokola atambolaki lisusu na likolo ya mir ya lopango, bato bamonaki ete, na se ya bilamba na ye ya bokonzi, alataki saki na nzoto na ye.
And when the King had heard the wordes of the woman, he rent his clothes, (and as he went vpon the wall, the people looked, and behold, he had sackecloth within vpon his flesh)
31 Mokonzi alobaki: « Tika ete Nzambe apesa ngai etumbu ya makasi soki kaka moto ya Elize, mwana mobali ya Shafati, etikali na likolo ya mapeka na ye. »
And he saide, God doe so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the sonne of Shaphat shall stande on him this day.
32 Nzokande, Elize avandaki kati na ndako na ye, elongo na bakambi ya engumba. Mokonzi atindaki ntoma moko epai ya Elize. Kasi liboso ete akoma, Elize alobaki na bakambi ya engumba: « Bozali komona te ete mobomi oyo atindi moto mpo na koya kokata ngai moto? Bosala keba! Tango kaka bokomona ye, bokanga ekuke liboso na ye mpe botindika ye na yango na sima! Boyoka! Wana ezali makelele ya makolo ya nkolo na ye te, oyo ezali koyokana sima na ye? »
(Nowe Elisha sate in his house, and the Elders sate with him.) And the King sent a man before him: but before the messenger came to him, he saide to the Elders, See ye not howe this murtherers sonne hath sent to take away mine head? take heede when the messenger commeth, and shut the doore and handle him roughly at the doore: is not the sounde of his masters feete behinde him?
33 Wana Elize azalaki nanu koloba, ntoma ya mokonzi akomaki mpe ayebisaki ye maloba ya mokonzi: « Pasi oyo nyonso ewuti epai ya Yawe! Nakozela lisusu nini kowuta na Ye? »
While he yet talked with them, beholde, the messenger came downe vnto him, and saide, Behold, this euill commeth of the Lord: should I attende on the Lord any longer?
