1 Kings 12
1 And Roboam went to Sichem: for thither were all Israel come together to make him king.
Roboami akendeki na Sishemi epai wapi lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele esanganaki mpo na kokomisa ye mokonzi.
2 But Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who was yet in Egypt, a fugitive from the face of king Solomon, hearing of his death, returned out of Egypt.
Kasi sima na Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, koyoka sango yango wuta na Ejipito epai wapi akendeki kobombama mpo na kokima mokonzi Salomo, azongaki wuta na Ejipito.
3 And they sent and called him: and Jeroboam came, and all the multitude of Israel, and they spoke to Roboam, saying:
Boye, batindaki bato kobenga Jeroboami; bongo ye elongo na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele bakendeki epai ya Roboami mpe balobaki na ye:
4 Thy father laid a grievous yoke upon us: now therefore do thou take off a little of the grievous service of thy father, and of his most heavy yoke, which he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
— Tata na yo anyokolaki biso makasi; kasi sik’oyo, yo, lembisa misala makasi mpe mikumba oyo tata na yo atia na mito na biso; bongo biso, tokosalela yo.
5 And he said to them: Go till the third day, and come to me again. And when the people was gone,
Roboami azongisaki: — Bokende epai na bino, bopesa ngai mikolo misato mpo na koyekola likambo yango, bongo bozongela ngai. Mpe bato bakendeki.
6 King Roboam took counsel with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and he said: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people?
Mokonzi Roboami atunaki toli epai ya bampaka oyo basalaki elongo na Salomo, tata na ye, tango azalaki nanu na bomoi. Alobaki na bango: — Toli nini bozali kopesa ngai lokola eyano ya kopesa epai ya bato oyo?
7 They said to him: If thou wilt yield to this people today, and condescend to them, and grant their petition, and wilt speak gentle words to them, they will be thy servants always.
Bazongiselaki ye: — Soki, na mokolo ya lelo, omikomisi mosali ya bato oyo, soki osaleli bango mpe opesi bango eyano ya malamu, bakozala tango nyonso basali na yo.
8 But he left the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men, that had been brought up with him, and stood before him.
Kasi Roboami aboyaki toli oyo bampaka bapesaki ye; asengaki toli epai ya bilenge mibali oyo bakolaki esika moko na ye mpe bazalaki kosalela ye.
9 And he said to them: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people, who have said to me: Make the yoke which thy father put upon us lighter?
Atunaki bango: — Toli nini bozali kopesa lokola eyano ya kopesa epai ya bato oyo balobi na ngai: « Lembisa misala makasi mpe mikumba oyo tata na yo atia na mito na biso? »
10 And the young men that had been brought up with him, said: Thus shalt thou speak to this people, who have spoken to thee, saying: Thy father made our yoke heavy, do thou ease us. Thou shalt say to them: My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.
Bilenge mibali oyo bakolaki esika moko na ye bazongisaki: — Tala makambo oyo okoyebisa bato oyo balobi na yo: « Tata na yo anyokolaki biso na misala makasi; kasi yo, lembisela biso yango! » Yebisa bango: « Mosapi na ngai ya moke eleki loketo ya tata na ngai na monene;
11 And now my father put a, heavy yoke upon you, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.
soki tata na ngai anyokolaki bino na misala makasi, ngai, nakoyeisa yango lisusu makasi koleka; soki tata na ngai azalaki kobeta bino fimbu ya poso ya nyama, ngai nakobeta bino fimbu ya ebende. »
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying: Come to me again the third day.
Sima na mikolo misato, Jeroboami elongo na bato nyonso bazongaki epai ya Roboami, ndenge mokonzi ayebisaki bango: « Bozongela ngai sima na mikolo misato. »
13 And the king answered the people roughly, leaving the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,
Mokonzi Roboami aboyaki kosalela toli oyo bampaka bapesaki ye, ayanolaki bato na maloba mabe makasi;
14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying: My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.
alandaki toli ya bilenge mibali mpe ayebisaki bango: Soki tata na ngai anyokolaki bino na misala makasi, ngai nakoyeisa yango lisusu makasi koleka; soki tata na ngai azalaki kobeta bino fimbu ya poso ya nyama, ngai nakobeta bino fimbu ya ebende.
15 And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias the Silonite, to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
Mokonzi aboyaki koyoka bato, pamba te ezalaki Yawe nde asalaki bongo mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo Yawe ayebisaki Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Nebati, na nzela ya mosakoli Ayiya, moto ya Silo.
16 Then the people seeing that the king would not hearken to them, answered him, saying: What portion have we in David? or what inheritance in the son of Isai? Go home to thy dwellings, O Israel, now David look to thy own house. So Israel departed to their dwellings.
Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bamonaki ete mokonzi aboyi koyoka bango, bazongiselaki ye: « Eloko nini ya lisanga tozali na yango na Davidi? Tozali na eloko moko te ya lisanga na mwana mobali ya Izayi! Isalaele, tika ete moto na moto azonga na ndako na ye ya kapo! Mpe yo, mokitani ya Davidi, tikala kotala makambo ya ndako na yo! » Boye, bana ya Isalaele bazongaki na bandako na bango ya kapo.
17 But as for all the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Juda, Roboam reigned over them.
Roboami akobaki kokonza bana ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kovanda na bingumba ya Yuda.
18 Then king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tribute: and all Israel stoned him, and he died. Wherefore king Roboam made haste to get him up into his chariot, and he fled to Jerusalem:
Mokonzi Roboami atindaki Adorami oyo azalaki motambolisi misala makasi, kasi bana nyonso ya Isalaele babambaki ye mabanga mpe akufaki. Nzokande, mokonzi Roboami alongaki komata na shar na ye mpo na kokima na Yelusalemi.
19 And Israel revolted from the house of David, unto this day.
Ezali boye nde bana ya Isalaele batombokelaki ndako ya Davidi kino na mokolo ya lelo.
20 And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they gathered an assembly, and sent and called him, and made him king over all Israel, and there was none that followed the house of David but the tribe of Juda only.
Tango bana nyonso ya Isalaele bayokaki ete Jeroboami azongi, batindaki bato kobenga ye ete aya na mayangani, mpe bakomisaki ye mokonzi ya Isalaele mobimba. Kaka libota ya Yuda nde etikalaki kotosa bokonzi ya ndako ya Davidi.
21 And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and gathered together all the house of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred four-score thousand chosen men for war, to fight against the house of Israel and to bring the kingdom again under Roboam the son of Solomon.
Tango Roboami azongaki na Yelusalemi, asangisaki libota nyonso ya Yuda mpe libota ya Benjame, aponaki kati na bango bilombe ya bitumba nkoto nkama moko na tuku mwambe mpo na kobundisa ndako ya Isalaele mpe kozongisa bokonzi na maboko ya Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo.
22 But the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying:
Kasi Nzambe alobaki na Shemaya, moto na Nzambe:
23 Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon, the king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda, and Benjamin, and the rest of the people, saying:
« Yebisa Roboami, mwana mobali ya Salomo, mokonzi ya Yuda; mpe bana nyonso ya Yuda, ya Benjame mpe ba-oyo batikali:
24 Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: let every man return to his house, for this thing is from me. They hearkened to the word of the Lord, and returned from their journey, as the Lord had commanded them.
‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Bokende te kobundisa bandeko na bino, bato ya Isalaele! Tika ete moto moko na moko azonga na ndako na ye, pamba te Ngai moko nde nasali makambo nyonso oyo eleki. › » Batosaki Liloba na Yawe mpe bazongaki na bandako na bango mpo na kotosa mitindo ya Yawe.
25 And Jeroboam built Sichem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt there, and going out from thence he built Phanuel.
Jeroboami atongaki engumba Sishemi, kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi, mpe avandaki kuna. Longwa na Sishemi, abimaki mpe akendeki kotonga Penueli.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart: Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David,
Jeroboami amilobelaki: « Ndenge makambo ezali kotambola, bokonzi ekoki kozonga na ndako ya Davidi.
27 If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem: and the heart of this people will turn to their lord Roboam the king of Juda, and they will kill me, and return to him.
Soki bato oyo bamati na Yelusalemi mpo na kobonza mbeka na Tempelo ya Yawe, bakopesa lisusu mitema na bango epai ya nkolo na bango, Roboami, mokonzi ya Yuda. Bakoboma ngai mpe bakozonga epai ya mokonzi Roboami. »
28 And finding out a device he made two golden calves, and said to them: Go ye up no more to Jerusalem: Behold thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Sima na ye koluka toli, mokonzi asalaki bikeko mibale ya bana ngombe ya wolo. Alobaki na bato: — Oh Isalaele, bokeyi mpe mingi na Yelusalemi! Botala banzambe na bino oyo babimisaki bino na Ejipito.
29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other in Dan:
Jeroboami atiaki ekeko moko na Beteli mpe mosusu na Dani.
30 And this thing became an occasion of sin: for the people went to adore the calf as far as Dan.
Bongo likambo oyo ememaki bato na lisumu, pamba te bamoko bazalaki kokende kogumbamela ekeko oyo ezalaki na Beteli, mpe bamosusu bazalaki kokende mosika kino na Dani mpo na kogumbamela ekeko mosusu.
31 And he made temples in the high places, and priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Jeroboami atongaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe atiaki banganga-nzambe oyo bazalaki ata te bato ya libota ya Levi.
32 And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made: and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made.
Jeroboami akataki ete basalaka feti mibu nyonso na mokolo ya zomi na mitano ya sanza ya mwambe ndenge basalaka na mokili ya Yuda, mpe abonzaki mbeka na etumbelo. Asalaki ndenge wana na Beteli epai wapi abonzaki mbeka epai ya banzambe ya bikeko ya bana ngombe oyo asalaki, mpe atiaki banganga-nzambe na bisambelo oyo abongisaki na likolo ya bangomba.
33 And he went up to the altar, which he had built in Bethel, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast to the children of Israel, and went upon the altar to burn incense.
Na mokolo ya zomi na mitano ya sanza ya mwambe, sanza oyo aponaki na ndenge na ye moko, abonzaki mbeka na etumbelo oyo atongaki na Beteli. Akataki ete basalaka feti mibu nyonso mpo na bana ya Isalaele mpe amataki na etumbelo mpo na kotumba ansa.
