And I gathered them to the Riuer that goeth toward Ahaua, and there abode we three dayes: then I viewed the people, and the Priests, and found there none of the sonnes of Leui.
16 Boye nabengisaki Eliezeri, Arieli, Shemaya, Elinatani, Yaribi, Elinatani, Natan, Zakari mpe Meshulami oyo bazalaki bakambi; Yoyaribi mpe Elinatani oyo bazalaki bato ya mayele.
Therefore sent I to Eliezer, to Ariel, to Shemeiah, and to Elnathan, and to Iarib, and to Elnathan, and to Nathan, and to Zechariah, and to Meshullam the chiefe, and to Ioiarib and to Elnathan, men of vnderstanding,
17 Natindaki bango epai ya Ido, mokambi ya mboka Kasifia; nayebisaki bango makambo oyo basengeli koloba na Ido mpe bandeko na ye ya mosala, basali ya Tempelo, oyo bazalaki kovanda na Kasifia, mpo ete bamemela biso basali mpo na Ndako ya Nzambe na biso.
And I gaue them commandement, to Iddo the chiefest at the place of Casiphia, and I told them the words that they should speake to Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims at the place of Casiphia, that they should cause the ministers of the house of our God to come vnto vs.
18 Lokola loboko ya ngolu ya Nzambe na biso ezalaki likolo na biso, bamemelaki biso Sherebia, moto ya mayele, kati na bakitani ya Maali, mwana mobali ya Levi, mwana mobali ya Isalaele, elongo na bana na ye ya mibali mpe bandeko na ye ya mibali, bango nyonso zomi na mwambe,
So by the good hande of our God which was vpon vs, they brought vs a man of vnderstanding of the sonnes of Mahali the sonne of Leui the sonne of Israel, and Sherebiah with his sonnes and his brethren, euen eighteene.
19 elongo na Ashabia mpe Ezayi, bakitani ya Merari, elongo na bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe bana na bango ya mibali. Bango nyonso bazalaki tuku mibale.
Also Hashabiah, and with him Ieshaiah of the sonnes of Merari, with his brethren, and their sonnes twentie.
20 Bamemaki lisusu basali ya Tempelo, nkama mibale na tuku mibale, bakitani ya bato oyo Davidi mpe lisanga ya bakalaka na ye batiaki mpo na kosunga Balevi. Batangaki bango nyonso na bakombo na bango.
And of the Nethinims, whom Dauid had set, and the Princes for the seruice of the Leuites, two hundreth and twentie of the Nethinims, which all were named by name.
21 Kuna, pene ya ebale Akava, napesaki mitindo ya kokila bilei mpo na komikitisa liboso ya Nzambe na biso mpe kosenga Ye mobembo malamu mpo na biso, mpo na bana na biso mpe mpo na biloko na biso nyonso.
And there at the Riuer, by Ahaua, I proclaimed a fast, that we might humble our selues before our God, and seeke of him a right way for vs, and for our children, and for all our substance.
22 Nayokaki soni mpo na kosenga epai ya mokonzi basoda mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda, mpo na kobatela biso na nzela liboso ya banguna na biso; pamba te tolobaki na mokonzi: « Loboko ya ngolu ya Nzambe na biso ezali likolo ya moto nyonso oyo alukaka Ye, kasi kanda makasi na Ye ekitelaka bato nyonso oyo basundolaka Ye. »
For I was ashamed to require of the King an armie and horsemen, to helpe vs against the enemie in the way, because we had spoken to the King, saying, The hande of our God is vpon all them that seeke him in goodnesse, but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
23 Boye, tokilaki bilei mpe tosengaki ngolu yango epai ya Nzambe na biso, mpe Ye ayanolaki libondeli na biso.
So we fasted, aud besought our God for this: and he was intreated of vs.
24 Bongo na sima, natiaki kati na bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe bakonzi zomi na mibale: Sherebia, Ashabia elongo na bandeko na bango zomi.
Then I separated twelue of the chiefe of the Priests, Sherebiah, and Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
25 Namekaki liboso na bango makabo ya palata, ya wolo mpe bisalelo nyonso oyo mokonzi, bapesi toli na ye, bakalaka na ye mpe Isalaele mobimba bapesaki mpo na Ndako ya Nzambe na biso.
And weighed them the siluer and the gold, and the vessels, euen the offring of ye house of our God, which the King and his counselers, and his Princes, and all Israel that were present had offred.
26 Napesaki bango kilo nkoto tuku mibale ya palata, kilo nkoto misato ya bisalelo basala na palata, kilo nkoto misato ya wolo,
And I weighed vnto their hand sixe hundreth and fiftie talents of siluer, and in siluer vessel, an hundreth talents, and in golde, an hundreth talents:
27 bakopo ya wolo tuku mibale oyo ezali na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto moko mpe biloko mibale ya kitoko basala na bronze oyo engalaka lokola wolo.
And twentie basins of golde, of a thousand drammes, and two vessels of shining brasse very good, and precious as golde.
28 Nalobaki na bango: « Bino elongo na biloko oyo, bobulisami mpo na Yawe. Palata mpe wolo oyo ezali makabo oyo bato bakati bango moko kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango, epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya tata na bino.
And I said vnto them, Ye are consecrate vnto the Lord, and the vessels are consecrate, and the gold and the siluer are freely offred vnto the Lord God of your fathers.
29 Bosenzela mpe bobatela yango malamu kino tango bokomeka kilo na yango liboso ya bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, ya Balevi mpe ya bakambi ya mabota ya Isalaele, kati na bashambre ya Tempelo ya Yawe, na Yelusalemi. »
Watch ye, and keepe them vntill ye weigh them before the chiefe Priestes and the Leuites, and the chiefe fathers of Israel in Ierusalem in the chambers of the house of the Lord.
30 Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi bayambaki palata, wolo mpe bisalelo ya bule oyo bamekaki kilo na yango, mpo na komema yango na Ndako ya Nzambe na biso, na Yelusalemi.
So the Priests and the Leuites receiued the weight of the siluer and of the golde, and of the vessels to bring them to Ierusalem, vnto the house of our God.
31 Na mokolo ya zomi na mibale ya sanza ya liboso, tolongwaki na ebale Akava mpo na kokende na Yelusalemi. Loboko ya Nzambe na biso ezalaki likolo na biso, mpe abatelaki biso na nzela liboso ya banguna mpe ya bato ya mobulu.
Then we departed from the Riuer of Ahauah on the twelft day of the first moneth, to go vnto Ierusalem, and the hand of our God was vpon vs, and deliuered vs from the hand of the enemie, and of such as layde waite by the way.
32 Tokomaki na Yelusalemi mpe topemaki kuna mikolo misato.
And we came to Ierusalem, and abode there three dayes.
33 Na mokolo ya minei, tomekaki kilo ya palata, ya wolo mpe bisalelo ya bule kati na Ndako ya Nzambe na biso, liboso ya kopesa yango na maboko ya Nganga-Nzambe Meremoti, mwana mobali ya Uri; azalaki elongo na Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Pineasi, mpe Balevi Yozabadi, mwana mobali ya Jozue, mpe Noadia, mwana mobali ya Binuwi.
And on ye fourth day was the siluer weighed, and the golde and the vessell in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the sonne of Vriah the Priest, and with him was Eleazar the sonne of Phinehas, and with them was Iozabad the sonne of Ieshua, and Noadiah the sonne of Binnui the Leuites,
34 Batangaki mpe bamekaki kilo ya biloko nyonso; mpe bakomaki yango na buku kaka na tango wana.
By number and by weight of euery one, and all the weight was written at the same time.
35 Bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu bazongaki wuta na bowumbu mpe babonzaki mpo na Isalaele mobimba lokola mbeka ya kotumba epai ya Nzambe ya Isalaele: bangombe ya mibali zomi na mibale, bameme ya mibali tuku libwa na motoba, bana meme tuku sambo na sambo, mpe bantaba zomi na mibale lokola mbeka ya masumu. Babonzaki nyonso lokola mbeka ya kotumba mpo na Yawe.
Also the children of the captiuitie, which were come out of captiuitie, offred burnt offrings vnto the God of Israel, twelue bullockes for all Israel, ninetie and sixe rammes, seuentie and seuen lambes, and twelue hee goates for sinne: all was a burnt offring of the Lord.
36 Batindaki lisusu sango ya mitindo ya mokonzi epai ya bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki na bituka mpe epai ya bayangeli ya etuka ya ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate, oyo basungaki bato mpe Tempelo ya Nzambe.
And they deliuered the Kings commission vnto the Kings officers, and to the captaines beyond the Riuer: and they promoted the people, and the house of God.
