2 Batesalonika 2
1 Bandeko, mpo na oyo etali boyei ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, mpe bosangani na biso epai na Ye, tozali kosenga na bino boye:
And we ask you, brothers, in regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together to Him,
2 bopesaka na mobulu nzela te ya kokota na pete kati na makanisi na bino to tika ete mitema na bino etungisamaka te likolo na emoniseli, liloba to mokanda oyo bato bakoki koloba na tina na yango ete ewuti epai na biso mpe ezali koloba ete mokolo ya Nkolo esili kokoma.
that you are not quickly shaken in mind, nor be troubled, neither through spirit, neither through word, neither through letters as through us, as that the Day of the LORD has arrived;
3 Tika ete moko te akosa bino; pamba te liboso ete mokolo yango ekoma, bato basengeli nanu kobwaka kondima, mpe motomboki oyo abongisami mpo na libebi asengeli nanu komonana.
do not let anyone deceive you in any way, because if the departure may not come first, the man of lawlessness may [not] be revealed—the son of destruction,
4 Motomboki yango akotelemela makambo nyonso ya Nzambe mpe akomitombola na likolo ya nyonso oyo bato babengaka Nzambe to na likolo ya oyo bato bagumbamelaka, kino kokende kovanda kati na Tempelo ya Nzambe mpe komibenga Nzambe.
who is opposing and is raising himself up above all called god or worshiped, so as for him to have sat down in the temple of God, proclaiming that he is God.
5 Boni, bobosani ete nazalaki koyebisa bino makambo yango tango nazalaki elongo na bino?
Do you not remember that, yet being with you, I said these things to you?
6 Nzokande boyebi sik’oyo nini ezali kokanga ye nzela mpo ete amonisama te na tango na ye.
And now, you have known what is restraining, for his being revealed in his own time,
7 Pamba te nguya ya botomboki, oyo ebombama esili kobanda kosala; kasi esengeli ete Ye oyo, kino sik’oyo, azali kokanga ye nzela ya komimonisa alongwa
for the secret of lawlessness already works, only the [One] now restraining [will do so] until He may come out of [the] midst,
8 mpo ete motomboki amonisama, ye oyo Nkolo Yesu akoboma na nzela ya Liloba kowuta na monoko na Ye mpe akobebisa tango akoya na nzela ya nkembo ya boyei na Ye.
and then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the LORD will consume with the Spirit of His mouth, and will nullify at the appearance of His coming,
9 Motomboki yango akoya na nguya ya Satana mpe akosala bikamwa ya lolenge nyonso, bilembo, misala minene ya lokuta
whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders,
10 mpe lolenge nyonso ya mabe, mpo na kokosa bato oyo bazali kokende na libebi, pamba te bayambaki te bolingo ya bosolo oyo esengeli kobikisa bango.
and in all deceitfulness of the unrighteousness in those perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth for their being saved,
11 Yango wana Nzambe atindeli bango molimo ya libunga mpo ete bandima makambo ya lokuta,
and because of this God will send to them a working of delusion, for their believing the lie,
12 mpe mpo ete bato nyonso oyo baboyaki kondimela solo kasi basepelaki na mabe bazwa etumbu.
that they may be judged—all who did not believe the truth, but were well pleased in the unrighteousness.
13 Kasi biso bandeko balingami ya Nkolo, tosengeli tango nyonso kozongisaka matondi epai ya Nzambe mpo na bino oyo Nkolo alingaka, pamba te Nzambe asila kopona bino wuta na ebandeli mpo ete bozwa lobiko, na nzela ya libulisi ya Molimo mpe ya kondima kati na solo.
And we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brothers, beloved by the LORD, that God chose you from the beginning to salvation, in sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth,
14 Na nzela ya Sango Malamu oyo toteyaki bino, Nzambe abengaki bino mpo ete bozwa lobiko mpe nkembo ya Nkolo na biso, Yesu-Klisto.
to which He called you through our good news, to the acquiring of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ;
15 Yango wana bandeko, botelema ngwi mpe bobatela malamu malakisi oyo toteyaki bino, ezala na nzela ya maloba to na nzela ya mokanda.
so, then, brothers, stand fast, and hold the traditions that you were taught, whether through word, whether through our letter;
16 Tika ete Ye moko Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, mpe Nzambe, Tata na biso, oyo alingaki biso mpe apesaki biso, na ngolu na Ye, malendisi ya seko mpe elikya ya malamu, (aiōnios g166)
and may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who loved us, and gave continuous comfort, and good hope in grace, (aiōnios g166)
17 balendisa mitema na bino mpe bapesa bino makasi ya kosala bolamu kati na misala mpe maloba nyonso!
comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
