2 Bakonzi 25
1 Tango Sedesiasi akokisaki mibu libwa na bokonzi, na mokolo ya zomi ya sanza mpe ya zomi, Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso, ayaki kobundisa Yelusalemi. Batongaki molako na bango libanda ya engumba, mpe atongaki mabulu mpo na kobombama, na zingazinga na yango nyonso.
It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and camped against it; and they built forts against it around it.
2 Engumba yango ezingelamaki kino na mobu ya zomi na moko ya bokonzi ya Sedesiasi.
So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3 Na mokolo ya libwa ya sanza ya minei, wana nzala makasi ekotaki kati na engumba mpe bato bazalaki lisusu na eloko ya kolia te,
On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
4 bongo lokola lidusu moko efungwamaki kati na mir ya engumba, basoda nyonso ya Yuda bakimaki butu-butu mpe babimelaki na ekuke oyo ezalaki na kati-kati ya bamir mibale, pene ya elanga ya mokonzi, atako bato ya Babiloni bazingelaki engumba. Bakimaki na nzela ya lubwaku ya Yordani.
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden (now the Chaldeans were against the city around it); and they went by the way of the Arabah.
5 Kasi basoda ya Babiloni balandaki mokonzi mpe bakangaki ye kati na etando ya Jeriko epai wapi basoda na ye nyonso bakimaki ye mpe bapanzanaki.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
6 Basoda ya Babiloni bakangaki mokonzi ya Yuda mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, na Ribila epai wapi bakatelaki ye etumbu.
Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment on him.
7 Bakataki mito ya bana mibali ya Sedesiasi na miso na ye; mpe Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atobolaki miso ya Sedesiasi, apesaki mitindo ete bakanga ye minyololo ya bronze mpe bamema ye na Babiloni.
They killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
8 Tango Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, akokisaki mibu zomi na libwa na bokonzi, Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli mpe mosali ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, ayaki na Yelusalemi na mokolo ya sambo ya sanza ya mitano.
Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem.
9 Atumbaki Tempelo ya Yawe, ndako ya mokonzi mpe bandako nyonso ya Yelusalemi; atumbaki bandako nyonso ya bato minene.
He burnt the house of Jehovah, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burnt he with fire.
10 Mampinga nyonso ya Babiloni, oyo ezalaki na se ya bokonzi ya mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi babukaki bamir oyo ezingelaki Yelusalemi.
All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
11 Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, amemaki na bowumbu bato oyo batikalaki kati na engumba, bato oyo bamipesaki epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bato mosusu oyo batikalaki.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive the residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
12 Kasi mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi atikaki kati na mokili ndambo ya babola mpo na kolona vino mpe bilanga.
But the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
13 Bato ya Babiloni babukaki makonzi ya bronze oyo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bashario ya bronze mpe nzungu ya monene ya bronze oyo ezalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, mpe bamemaki bronze na yango na Babiloni.
The Chaldeans broke up the pillars of bronze that were in the house of Jehovah and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of Jehovah, and carried the bronze pieces to Babylon.
14 Bakamataki lisusu biloko nyonso ya bronze oyo bazalaki kosala na yango losambo kati na Tempelo, basani ya putulu, bapawu, bambeli, bakopo.
They took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
15 Mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi akamataki lisusu biloko nyonso ya wolo mpe ya palata: bambabola mpe basani ya kobwakela mayi.
The captain of the guard took away the fire pans, the basins, that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
16 Bakokaki te komeka kilo ya bronze ya biloko nyonso oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na Tempelo ya Yawe: makonzi nyonso mibale, nzungu ya monene mpe bashario.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases, which Solomon had made for the house of Jehovah, the bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
17 Likonzi moko na moko ezalaki na bametele pene libwa na bosanda. Moto ya likonzi, oyo ezalaki na songe, ezalaki ya bronze mpe na metele pene moko na ndambo na molayi; mpe bazingelaki yango na bililingi ya basinga oyo basala lokola monyama mpe bambuma ya grenade. Makonzi nyonso mibale mpe bililingi ya basinga oyo basala lokola monyama ezalaki ndenge moko.
The height of the one pillar was thirty-one feet, and a capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the capital was eight feet seven inches, with network and pomegranates on the capital around it, all of bronze: and like to these had the second pillar with network.
18 Mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi atiaki na boloko Seraya, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe; Sofoni, molandi ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe; mpe Banganga-Nzambe misato oyo bazalaki na mokumba ya kokengela ekotelo ya Tempelo.
The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold:
19 Kati na bato oyo batikalaki kati na engumba, akangaki lisusu moko kati na bakalaka ya lokumu, oyo azalaki na mokumba ya kotala makambo ya basoda ya bitumba, bapesi toli mitano, mokomi mikanda ya mokonzi ya mampinga, oyo azalaki na mokumba ya kokoma bakombo ya bato ya mboka mpo na kokota na mosala ya mampinga; mpe mibali tuku motoba ya Yuda, oyo bakutaki kati na engumba.
and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and five men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe, the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the city.
20 Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, akamataki bango nyonso mpe amemaki bango epai ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, na Ribila.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
21 Mokonzi ya Babiloni abomaki bango kuna na Ribila, kati na mokili ya Amati. Boye, bato ya Yuda bakendeki na bowumbu mosika ya mokili na bango.
The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
22 Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atiaki Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami mpe koko ya Shafani, lokola moyangeli ya bato oyo atikaki kati na mokili ya Yuda.
As for the people who were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, governor.
23 Tango bakonzi nyonso ya mampinga elongo na basoda na bango bayokaki ete mokonzi ya Babiloni akomisi Gedalia moyangeli, bakendeki na Mitsipa epai ya Gedalia. Tala bakombo ya bato yango: Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania; Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea; Seraya, mwana mobali ya Tanumeti, moto ya Netofa; mpe Yazania, mwana mobali ya moto moko ya Maakati. Bakendeki kuna elongo na basoda na bango.
Now when all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
24 Gedalia alapaki ndayi liboso na bango mpe basoda na bango na maloba oyo: « Bobanga te kosalela bato ya Babiloni, bovanda kati na mokili, bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bokozala na bino malamu. »
Gedaliah swore to them and to their men, and said to them, "Do not be afraid because of the servants of the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you."
25 Kasi na sanza ya misato, Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania mpe koko ya Elishama, oyo azalaki na molongo ya libota ya bokonzi, ayaki elongo na basoda zomi; babomaki Gedalia elongo na bato ya Yuda mpe bato ya Babiloni oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, na Mitsipa.
But it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family came, and ten men with him, and struck Gedaliah, so that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Boye bato nyonso, kobanda na bato ya se kino bato ya lokumu, elongo na bakonzi ya basoda, bakimaki na Ejipito, pamba te bazalaki kobanga bato ya Babiloni.
All the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose, and came to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
27 Tango Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu tuku misato na sambo na bowumbu, Evili-Merodaki, mokonzi ya Babiloni, ayokelaki Yeoyakini, mokonzi ya Yuda, mawa mpe abimisaki ye na boloko, na mokolo ya tuku mibale na sambo ya sanza ya zomi na mibale, kaka na mobu oyo akomaki mokonzi.
It happened in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Awil-Marduk king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
28 Evili-Merodaki asololaki na Yeoyakini na boboto mpe apesaki ye lokumu koleka bakonzi mosusu oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, na bowumbu kati na Babiloni;
and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
29 apesaki mitindo ete balongola ye bilamba ya boloko mpe andimaki ete abanda kolia mesa moko elongo na ye, mokolo na mokolo kino na suka ya bomoi na ye.
and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
30 Mokonzi ya Babiloni azalaki kopesa ye nyonso oyo asengeli na yango mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na ye.
and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him of the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
