2 Masolo ya Kala 36
1 Bato ya mokili bazwaki Yoakazi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kokitana na tata na ye.
Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and they anointed him and made him king in his father's place in Jerusalem.
2 Yoakazi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na misato ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato na Yelusalemi.
Joahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
3 Mokonzi ya Ejipito alongolaki ye na bokonzi kati na Yelusalemi mpe asengaki na makasi ete mokili ya Yuda ekoma kofuta mpako mpo na mokonzi: bakilo nkoto misato na nkama minei ya palata mpe ya wolo.
The king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and fined the land one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Mokonzi ya Ejipito akomisaki Eliakimi, ndeko mobali ya Yoakazi, mokonzi ya Yelusalemi mpe ya Yuda; abongolaki kombo na ye mpe akomisaki yango « Yeoyakimi. » Kasi Neko akangaki Yoakazi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mpe amemaki ye na Ejipito.
The king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. Neco took Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 Yeoyakimi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na mitano ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH his God.
6 Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, abundisaki ye mpe akangaki ye minyololo ya bronze mpo na komema ye na Babiloni.
Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
7 Nabukodonozori amemaki mpe na Babiloni ndambo ya biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe atiaki yango kati na ndako na ye ya bokonzi.
Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of YHWH to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
8 Makambo mosusu oyo etali bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, misala na ye ya nkele mpe makambo oyo ekweyelaki ye, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda. Yeoyakini, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
9 Yeoyakini azalaki na mibu zomi na mwambe ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki basanza misato mpe mikolo zomi na Yelusalemi. Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe.
Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH.
10 Na suka ya mobu, mokonzi Nabukodonozori abengisaki ye mpe amemaki ye na Babiloni elongo na biloko ya motuya ya Tempelo ya Yawe; akomisaki Sedesiasi, ndeko mobali ya Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi.
At the return of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of YHWH, and made Zedekiah his relative king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Sedesiasi azalaki na mibu tuku mibale na moko ya mbotama tango akomaki mokonzi, mpe akonzaki mibu zomi na moko na Yelusalemi.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem:
12 Asalaki makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na ye, mpe amikitisaki te liboso ya mosakoli Jeremi oyo azalaki koloba na Kombo na Yawe.
and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH his God; he did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of YHWH.
13 Lisusu, atombokelaki mokonzi Nabukodonozori oyo alapisaki ye ndayi na Kombo ya Nzambe. Na esika ete azonga epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, akomaki moto makasi mpe akomisaki motema na ye libanga.
He also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart against turning to YHWH, the God of Israel.
14 Bakonzi nyonso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato bakomaki lisusu kosala mabe koleka, balandaki misala nyonso ya nkele ya bikolo ya bapaya mpe babebisaki bosantu ya Tempelo ya Yawe oyo Ye moko Yawe abulisaki na Yelusalemi.
Moreover all the chiefs of the priests, and the people, trespassed very greatly after all the abominations of the nations; and they polluted the house of YHWH which he had made holy in Jerusalem.
15 Yawe, Nzambe ya batata na bango, atindelaki bango, mbala na mbala mpe na ngonga malamu, makebisi na nzela ya bamemi sango na Ye, pamba te azalaki na posa ya kobatela bato na Ye mpe Tempelo na Ye.
YHWH, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
16 Kasi bato ya Isalaele bazalaki kotiola bamemi sango ya Nzambe, bazalaki komona pamba makebisi na Ye mpe bazalaki kowolola basakoli na Ye kino Yawe kosilikela bato na Ye makasi; mpe bakokaki kosala eloko moko te mpo na komibikisa liboso ya kanda makasi ya Yawe.
but they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his prophets, until the wrath of YHWH arose against his people, until there was no remedy.
17 Boye, mpo na kobebisa bango, Yawe atindaki mokonzi ya bato ya Babiloni, oyo abomaki na mopanga bilenge na bango kati na esika na bango ya bule; abikisaki te ezala elenge mobali, elenge mwasi, mokolo to mobange. Nzambe akabaki nyonso na maboko ya Nabukodonozori.
Therefore he brought on them the king of the Chaldeans, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or gray-headed: he gave them all into his hand.
18 Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni biloko nyonso ya Tempelo ya Nzambe, ya minene to ya mike, bozwi ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bozwi ya mokonzi mpe ya bakalaka na ye.
All the vessels of God's house, great and small, and the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the king, and of his officials, all these he brought to Babylon.
19 Batumbaki na moto Tempelo ya Nzambe, babukaki mir ya Yelusalemi, batumbaki na moto bandako na yango ya kitoko mpe babebisaki biloko nyonso ya motuya.
They burnt God's house, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all its palaces with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels of it.
20 Nabukodonozori amemaki na Babiloni bato oyo babikaki na mopanga, akomisaki bango bawumbu na ye mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali kino na tango mokili ya Persi ezwaki bokonzi.
He carried those who had escaped from the sword away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Liloba na Yawe ekokisamaki, liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi: « Mokili ekozwa bopemi na mikolo nyonso oyo bakosundola yango, ekosepela na basaba na yango kino tango mibu tuku sambo ekokoka. »
to fulfill the word of YHWH by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its Sabbaths. As long as it lay desolate it kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.
22 Na mobu ya liboso ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Yawe alamusaki molimo ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi mpo ete asakola mpe akoma boye kati na mokili na ye mobimba:
Now in the first year of Koresh king of Persia, that the word of YHWH by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, YHWH stirred up the spirit of Koresh king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
23 « Tala makambo oyo Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, alobi: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe ya Likolo, apesi ngai babokonzi nyonso ya mabele mpe mokumba ya kotongela Ye Tempelo, na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda. Tika ete moto nyonso oyo, kati na bino, azali na molongo ya bato ya Yawe akende; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na ye, azali elongo na ye! › »
"Thus says Koresh king of Persia, 'YHWH, the God of heaven, has given all the kingdoms of the earth to me; and he has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all his people, YHWH his God be with him, and let him go up.'"
