2 Chronicles 35

1 Now Josiah kept the Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem, and it was immolated on the fourteenth day of the first month.

Joziasi asepelaki feti ya Pasika mpo na lokumu ya Yawe kati na Yelusalemi; mpe na mokolo ya zomi na minei ya sanza ya liboso, bakataki kingo ya mpate mpo na mbeka ya Pasika.

2 And he appointed the priests in their offices, and he exhorted them to minister in the house of the Lord.

Atiaki Banganga-Nzambe mpo ete bakoba mosala na bango mpe alendisaki bango na mosala ya Tempelo ya Yawe.

3 Also, he spoke with the Levites, by whose instruction all of Israel was sanctified to the Lord, saying: “Place the ark in the sanctuary of the temple, which Solomon, the son of David, the king of Israel, built. For never again shall you carry it. Instead, now you shall minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.

Alobaki na Balevi oyo babulisamaki mpo na Yawe mpe bazalaki na mokumba ya koteya Isalaele mobimba: — Botia Sanduku ya bule kati na Tempelo oyo Salomo, mwana mobali ya Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, atongaki; ezali lisusu ya komema na mapeka na bino te. Sik’oyo, bosalela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe Isalaele, bato na Ye.

4 And prepare yourselves by your houses and families, within each division, just as David, the king of Israel, instructed, and just as his son Solomon has written.

Bomibongisa kolanda mabota mpe masanga na bino ya mosala, kolanda mitindo oyo Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele, mpe Salomo, mwana na ye ya mobali, bakomaki.

5 And minister in the sanctuary, by the Levitical families and companies.

Bowumela na bisika na bino ya mosala kati na Esika ya bule: lisanga moko ya Balevi mpo na libota moko na moko ya bandeko na bino, bato ya ekolo na bino.

6 And having been sanctified, immolate the Passover. And then prepare your brothers, so that they may be able to act in accord with the words which the Lord has spoken by the hand of Moses.”

Bokata kingo ya mpate mpo na mbeka ya Pasika, bomibulisa mpe bobongisa mpate yango ya Pasika mpo na bandeko na bino oyo bozali na bango ekolo moko, kolanda mitindo ya Yawe na nzela ya Moyize.

7 After this, Josiah gave to all the people, those who had been found there at the solemnity of the Passover, thirty thousand lambs and young goats from the flocks, and other kinds of small cattle, and also three thousand oxen. All these were from the substance of the king.

Joziasi azwaki kati na bibwele na ye moko mokonzi bana meme mpe bana ntaba nkoto tuku misato mpe bangombe nkoto misato, mpo na bato ya Isalaele, nkoto tuku misato oyo bazalaki wana mpo ete bakoka kobonza yango lokola mbeka ya Pasika.

8 Also, his rulers offered what they had vowed freely, as much for the people as for the priests and Levites. Moreover, Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house of the Lord, gave to the priests, in order to observe the Passover, two thousand six hundred small cattle, and three hundred oxen.

Bakalaka na ye mpe bapesaki wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango, epai ya bato, epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe epai ya Balevi. Ilikia, Zakari mpe Yeyeli, oyo bazalaki bakambi ya misala kati na Tempelo ya Nzambe, bapesaki epai ya Banganga-Nzambe lokola mbeka ya Pasika bana meme nkoto mibale na nkama motoba mpe bangombe nkama misato.

9 And Conaniah, with Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, indeed also Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, rulers of the Levites, gave to the rest of the Levites, in order to celebrate the Passover, five thousand small cattle, and five hundred oxen.

Konania elongo na bandeko na ye ya mibali: Shemaya, Netaneeli, Ashabia, Yeyeli mpe Yozabadi oyo bakambi ya Balevi, bapesaki bameme nkoto mitano mpe bangombe nkama mitano epai ya Balevi lokola mbeka ya Pasika.

10 And the ministry was prepared. And the priests stood in their office, and the Levites also stood in their companies, according to the order of the king.

Tala ndenge babongisaki losambo: Banganga-Nzambe batelemaki na esika na bango ya mosala, mpe Balevi bazalaki kati na masanga na bango, kolanda mitindo ya mokonzi.

11 And the Passover was immolated. And the priests sprinkled the blood with their hand, and the Levites drew away the pelts of the holocausts.

Bato babonzaki bana meme mpe bana ntaba lokola mbeka ya Pasika, mpe Balevi bazalaki kopesa makila na yango epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpo ete basopa yango na likolo ya etumbelo, wana Balevi bazalaki kopapa mbeka

12 And they put these aside, so that they might give them to each one, by their houses and families, and so that they might be offered to the Lord, just as it was written in the book of Moses. And with the oxen, they acted similarly.

mpe kotia pembeni biteni ya kobonza lokola mbeka ya kotumba, mpo na kopesa yango epai ya bato kolanda masanga na bango mpo ete babonza yango epai na Yawe, kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Moyize. Basalaki mpe ndenge wana mpo na bangombe.

13 And they roasted the Passover above fire, in accord with what was written in the law. Yet truly, the victims of peace offerings they boiled in cauldrons and kettles and pots. And they promptly distributed these to all the common people.

Kolanda ndenge mobeko ezalaki kotinda, batumbaki na moto meme oyo ebonzamaki lokola mbeka ya Pasika mpe balambaki makabo mosusu ya bule na nzungu, na kikalungu mpe na basani; mpe bapesaki yango na lombangu epai ya bato nyonso.

14 Then afterward, they made preparations for themselves and for the priests. Indeed, the priests had been occupied in the oblations of the holocausts and the fat offerings, even until night. Therefore, the Levites made preparations for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron, last.

Sima na yango, Balevi babongisaki mbeka ya Pasika mpo na bango moko mpe mpo na Banganga-Nzambe; pamba te Banganga-Nzambe, bana mibali ya Aron, bazalaki kosala kino na butu mosala ya kobonza bambeka ya kotumba mpe mafuta ya banyama. Yango wana Balevi bazalaki kobongisa mbeka ya Pasika mpo na bango moko mpe mpo na Banganga-Nzambe, bana mibali ya Aron.

15 Now the singers, the sons of Asaph, were standing in their order, according to the instruction of David, and of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the prophets of the king. Truly, the porters kept watch at each gate, so as not to depart from their ministry even for one moment. And for this reason, their brothers, the Levites, prepared foods for them.

Babeti mindule, bana mibali ya Azafi, bazalaki na esika na bango ya mosala kolanda mitindo ya Davidi, ya Azafi, ya Emani mpe ya Yedutuni, mosakoli ya mokonzi. Bakengeli bikuke mpe bazalaki na bisika na bango ya mosala; batikalaki kozala mosika na yango te, pamba te bandeko na bango, Balevi, bazalaki mpe kobongisela bango biloko.

16 And so, the entire worship ritual of the Lord was completed on that day, so that they observed the Passover and offered holocausts upon the altar of the Lord, in accord with the precept of king Josiah.

Ezalaki ndenge wana nde misala nyonso ebongisamaki mokolo wana mpo na kosepela feti ya Pasika mpe kobonza mbeka ya kotumba na likolo ya etumbelo ya Yawe, kolanda mitindo ya mokonzi Joziasi.

17 And the sons of Israel, who had been found there, kept the Passover at that time, with the solemnity of unleavened bread, for seven days.

Bana ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki wana basepelaki na tango wana feti ya Pasika mpe feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, mikolo sambo.

18 There was no Passover similar to this one in Israel, from the days of Samuel the prophet. And neither did anyone, out of all the kings of Israel, keep such a Passover as did Josiah, the priests and Levites, and all those of Judah and Israel who had been found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Wuta na tango ya mosakoli Samuele, feti ya Pasika ya lolenge wana etikalaki nanu kosalema te kati na Isalaele. Mpe kati na bakonzi ya Isalaele, moko te asepelaki feti ya Pasika lokola Pasika oyo Joziasi asepelaki elongo na Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi, bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kuna elongo na bavandi ya Yelusalemi.

19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah, this Passover was celebrated.

Ezalaki na mobu ya zomi na mwambe ya bokonzi ya Joziasi nde basepelaki Pasika yango.

20 After Josiah had repaired the temple, Neco, the king of Egypt, ascended to fight at Carchemish, beside the Euphrates. And Josiah went out to meet him.

Sima na makambo oyo nyonso mpe sima na Joziasi kobongisa Tempelo ya Yawe, Neko, mokonzi ya Ejipito, akendeki kobundisa Karikemishi, na ebale Efrate; mpe Joziasi akendeki kokutana na ye mpo na kokanga ye nzela.

21 But he sent messengers to him, saying: “What is there between me and you, O king of Judah? I have not come against you today. Instead, I am fighting against another house, to which God instructed me to go promptly. Refrain from acting against God, who is with me, otherwise he may kill you.”

Neko atindelaki ye bamemi sango mpo na koloba na ye: — Mokonzi ya Yuda, likambo nini kati ya yo mpe ngai? Na mokolo ya lelo, nayei na ngai te mpo na kobundisa yo; nayei nde kobundisa mokonzi mosusu. Nzambe alobi na ngai ete nasala likambo yango na lombangu. Keba ete otombokela Nzambe oyo azali elongo na ngai, soki te akobebisa yo.

22 Josiah was not willing to return. Instead, he prepared for war against him. Neither would he agree to the words of Neco from the mouth of God. In truth, he traveled so that he might do battle in the field of Megiddo.

Kasi Joziasi aboyaki kotika ye, mpe lokola ayokaki te makambo oyo Neko ayebisaki ye kowuta na monoko ya Nzambe, Joziasi amibongolaki mpo na kobundisa Neko na lubwaku ya Megido.

23 And there, having been wounded by archers, he said to his servants: “Lead me away from the battle. For I have been severely wounded.”

Kati na bitumba, basoda oyo babundaka na batolotolo babetaki mokonzi Joziasi, mpe ye alobaki na basoda na ye: — Bolongola ngai awa, pamba te nazoki makasi.

24 And they took him from the chariot, into another chariot which was following him, as was the custom of kings. And they transported him to Jerusalem. And he died, and he was buried in the mausoleum of his fathers. And all of Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him,

Basoda na ye balongolaki ye na shar oyo azalaki kobunda na yango, batiaki ye na shar na ye mosusu mpe bamemaki ye na Yelusalemi epai wapi akufaki. Bakundaki ye kati na bakunda ya batata na ye. Bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi basalelaki Joziasi matanga.

25 most of all Jeremiah. All the singing men and women repeat his lamentations over Josiah, even to the present day. And this has become like a law in Israel. Behold, it is found written in the Lamentations.

Jeremi asalaki nzembo ya mawa mpo na Joziasi. Bayembi nyonso ya mibali mpe ya basi bayembelaki Joziasi banzembo ya mawa kino na mokolo ya lelo mpe bakomisaki likambo yango mobeko kati na Isalaele. Banzembo yango ekomama kati na buku ya banzembo ya mawa.

26 Now the rest of the words of Josiah, and his mercies, which were instructed by the law of the Lord,

Makambo mpe misala mosusu ya Joziasi, elongo na misala ya botosi na ye kati na makambo ya Yawe, kolanda oyo ekomama kati na Mobeko ya Yawe,

27 and also his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

misala na ye, kobanda na ebandeli kino na suka, ekomama kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda.
