2 Chronicles 32
1 After these things faithfully described, Saneherib King of Asshur came and entred into Iudah, and besieged the strong cities, and thought to winne them for him selfe.
Sima na Ezekiasi kotalisa boyengebene na ye epai ya Nzambe, Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, ayaki kobundisa Yuda. Azingelaki bingumba batonga makasi, pamba te azalaki na posa ya kobotola yango.
2 When Hezekiah sawe that Saneherib was come, and that his purpose was to fight against Ierusalem,
Tango Ezekiasi amonaki ete Senakeribe ayei mpe azali na makanisi ya kobundisa Yelusalemi,
3 Then he tooke counsell with his princes and his nobles, to stoppe the water of the fountaines without the citie: and they did helpe him.
apesaki bakalaka mpe bakonzi ya basoda na ye likanisi ya kokanga bitima oyo ezalaki na libanda ya engumba. Bango nyonso bandimaki likanisi yango mpe basungaki ye.
4 So many of the people assembled themselues, and stopt all the fountaines, and the riuer that ranne through the middes of the countrey, saying, Why should the Kings of Asshur come, and finde much water?
Bato ebele basanganaki mpe bakangaki bitima nyonso elongo na mayi oyo ezalaki kotiola na se ya mabele. Balobaki: — Mpo na nini bakonzi ya Asiri baya kokuta mayi ebele?
5 And he tooke courage, and built all the broken wall, and made vp the towers, and another wall without, and repayred Millo in the citie of Dauid, and made many dartes and shields.
Ezekiasi asalaki mosala makasi ya kobamba madusu ya mir mpe ya kobakisa bosanda ya bandako milayi; atongaki mir mosusu na libanda, alendisaki mir ya engumba ya Davidi mpe asalaki lisusu makonga mpe banguba ebele.
6 And he set captaines of warre ouer the people, and assembled them to him in the broade place of the gate of the citie, and spake comfortably vnto them, saying,
Atiaki bakonzi ya basoda mpo ete bakamba bato mpe asangisaki bango liboso na ye, na esika oyo ezali pene ya ekuke ya engumba. Alendisaki bango na maloba oyo:
7 Be strong and couragious: feare not, neither be afraide for the King of Asshur, neither for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with vs, then is with him.
— Bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko! Bobanga te mpe bolenga te liboso ya mokonzi ya Asiri mpe ya mampinga ya basoda ebele oyo bazali elongo na ye, pamba te Ye oyo azali elongo na biso azali na nguya monene koleka ye.
8 With him is an arme of flesh, but with vs is the Lord our God for to helpe vs, and to fight our battels. Then the people were confirmed by the wordes of Hezekiah King of Iudah.
Mokonzi oyo ya Asiri azali kaka na nguya ya bomoto; kasi biso, tozali elongo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso, oyo akosunga mpe akobundela biso bitumba. Boye bato batiaki elikya na maloba oyo Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, alobaki.
9 After this, did Saneherib King of Asshur send his seruants to Ierusalem (while he was against Lachish, and all his dominion with him) vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah and vnto all Iudah that were at Ierusalem, saying,
Sima na yango, wana Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, elongo na mampinga ya basoda na ye nyonso bazingelaki engumba Lakishi, atindaki bakonzi ya basoda na ye epai ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpe epai ya bato nyonso ya Yuda, oyo bazalaki na Yelusalemi; atindaki bango kopesa sango oyo:
10 Thus saith Saneherib the King of Asshur, Wherein doe ye trust, that ye will remaine in Ierusalem, during the siege?
« Tala makambo oyo Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, alobi: Botie elikya na bino na nini mpo ete bowumela kati na Yelusalemi oyo bazingeli?
11 Doeth not Hezekiah entice you to giue ouer your selues vnto death by famine and by thirst, saying, The Lord our God shall deliuer vs out of the hande of the King of Asshur?
Bozali komona te ete Ezekiasi azali kokosa bino mpo ete bokufa na nzala mpe na posa ya mayi tango azali koloba: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akokangola biso na loboko ya mokonzi ya Asiri? ›
12 Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his hie places and his altars, and commanded Iudah and Ierusalem, saying, Ye shall worshippe before one altar, and burne incense vpon it?
Boni, ezali kaka Ezekiasi wana te oyo alongolaki bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe bitumbelo ya banzambe tango alobaki na Yuda mpe na Yelusalemi: ‹ Bosengeli kogumbama liboso ya etumbelo moko kaka mpe kobonza mbeka ya malasi na likolo ya etumbelo yango? ›
13 Knowe ye not what I and my fathers haue done vnto all the people of other countreyes? were the gods of the nations of other landes able to deliuer their land out of mine hande?
Boyebi te makambo oyo ngai mpe batata na ngai tosalaki bato nyonso ya bikolo mosusu? Boni, banzambe ya bikolo wana bakokaki solo kokangola mikili na bango na maboko na ngai?
14 Who is he of al the gods of those natios (that my fathers haue destroied) that could deliuer his people out of mine hande? that your God should be able to deliuer you out of mine hand?
Kati na banzambe nyonso ya bikolo oyo batata na ngai babebisaki, nani akokaki kokangola bato na ye na maboko na ngai? Bongo ndenge nini Nzambe na bino akoka solo kokangola bino na maboko na ngai?
15 Nowe therefore let not Hezekiah deceiue you, nor seduce you after this sort, neither beleeue ye him: for none of all the gods of any nation or kingdome was able to deliuer his people out of mine hande and out of the hande of my fathers: howe much lesse shall your gods deliuer you out of mine hande?
Sik’oyo, botika te ete Ezekiasi amema bino na libunga mpe akosa bino ndenge wana; bondimela ye te! Pamba te soki nzambe moko te ya ekolo songolo to ya mokili pakala alongaki kokangola bato na ye na loboko na ngai mpe na loboko ya batata na ngai, bongo nzambe na bino nde akolonga kokangola bino na loboko na ngai? »
16 And his seruants spake yet more against the Lord God, and against his seruant Hezekiah.
Bakonzi ya basoda ya Senakeribe bakobaki koloba mabe na tina na Yawe Nzambe mpe Ezekiasi, mosali na Ye.
17 He wrote also letters, blaspheming the Lord God of Israel and speaking against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other countreies could not deliuer their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliuer his people out of mine hande.
Senakeribe akomaki lisusu mikanda mpo na kofinga Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Tala maloba mabe oyo akomaki na tina na Ye: « Ndenge banzambe ya bato ya bikolo mosusu balongaki te kokangola bato na bango, ndenge wana mpe nzambe ya Ezekiasi akolonga te kokangola bato na ye na maboko na ngai. »
18 Then they cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes speach vnto the people of Ierusalem that were on the wall, to feare them and to astonish them, that they might take the citie.
Boye bagangaki na lokota ya Ebre mpo na kolengisa mpe kobangisa bato ya Yelusalemi oyo batelemaki likolo ya mir, mpo ete bakoka kobotola engumba.
19 Thus they spake against the God of Ierusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, euen the workes of mans hands,
Balobaki na tina na Nzambe ya Yelusalemi lokola bato oyo bazali kolobela nzambe moko ya bapagano, nzambe oyo bato basali na ndenge mpe na maboko na bango!
20 But Hezekiah the King, and the Prophet Isaiah the sonne of Amoz prayed against this and cryed to heauen.
Mokonzi Ezekiasi mpe mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, babondelaki Nzambe na tina na yango mpe bagangaki na ngambo ya Lola mpo na kosenga lisungi.
21 And the Lord sent an Angel which destroyed all the valiant men, and the princes and captaines of the hoste of the King of Asshur: so he returned with shame to his owne lande. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came foorth of his owne bowels, slewe him there with the sworde.
Yawe atindaki anjelu moko oyo abomaki basoda nyonso ya mpiko, bakonzi ya basoda elongo na bakambi kati molako ya mokonzi ya Asiri. Mokonzi ya Asiri azongaki na mokili na ye na soni makasi. Mpe tango akotaki na ndako ya nzambe na ye, bana na ye ya mibali babomaki ye na mopanga.
22 So the Lord saued Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Ierusalem from the hande of Saneherib King of Asshur, and from the hande of all other, and maintained them on euery side.
Ezalaki ndenge wana nde Yawe akangolaki Ezekiasi mpe bato ya Yelusalemi na maboko ya Senakeribe, mokonzi ya Asiri, mpe na maboko ya banguna mosusu; mpe apesaki bango kimia na bangambo nyonso.
23 And many brought offrings vnto the Lord to Ierusalem, and presents to Hezekiah King of Iudah, so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thencefoorth.
Bato ebele bamemaki na Yelusalemi makabo mpo na Yawe mpe bakado ya motuya mpo na Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda. Wuta tango wana, lokumu ya Ezekiasi emataki makasi na miso ya bikolo nyonso.
24 In those dayes Hezekiah was sicke vnto the death, and prayed vnto the Lord, who spake vnto him, and gaue him a signe.
Na tango wana, Ezekiasi abelaki bokono moko ya makasi, pene akufa. Asambelaki Yawe; mpe Yawe ayanolaki, apesaki ye elembo moko ya kokamwa.
25 But Hezekiah did not render according to the rewarde bestowed vpon him: for his heart was lift vp, and wrath came vpon him, and vpon Iudah and Ierusalem.
Kasi mpo ete Ezekiasi akomaki na lolendo, atambolaki lisusu te na lolenge ya kondima bolamu ya Nzambe mpe ya kozongisela Ye matondi; mpo na yango, Yawe asilikelaki ye, Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled him selfe (after that his heart was lifted vp) he and the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and the wrath of the Lord came not vpon them in the dayes of Hezekiah.
Bongo Ezekiasi amikitisaki, atikaki lolendo na ye mpe abongolaki motema. Bato ya Yelusalemi mpe basalaki lokola Ezekiasi. Boye, Yawe akweyiselaki bango kanda na Ye te na mikolo nyonso oyo Ezekiasi azalaki mokonzi.
27 Hezekiah also had exceeding much riches and honour, and he gate him treasures of siluer, and of golde, and of precious stones, and of sweete odours, and of shieldes, and of all pleasant vessels:
Ezekiasi azalaki na bozwi ebele mpe na lokumu mingi, abombaki palata, wolo, mabanga ya talo, biloko ya solo kitoko, banguba mpe biloko nyonso ya talo.
28 And of store houses for the increase of wheat and wine and oyle, and stalles for all beasts, and rowes for the stables.
Atongaki bibombelo ya ble, ya vino ya sika mpe ya mafuta; atongaki lisusu mapango mpe bandako mpo na bibwele na ye.
29 And he made him cities, and had possession of sheepe and oxen in abundance: for God had giuen him substance exceeding much.
Atongaki bingumba mpe akomaki na bibwele ebele: bantaba, bameme mpe bangombe. Nzambe apesaki ye bozwi mingi.
30 This same Hezekiah also stopped the vpper water springs of Gihon, and led them streight vnderneath towarde the citie of Dauid Westwarde. so Hezekiah prospered in all his workes.
Ezali mpe Ezekiasi moto akangaki monoko ya etima ya Giyoni mpe alekisaki mayi na yango na se ya mabele, na ngambo ya weste ya engumba ya Davidi. Ezekiasi azalaki kolonga na misala na ye nyonso.
31 But because of the ambassadours of the princes of Babel, which sent vnto him to enquire of the wonder that was done in the lande, God left him to trie him, and to knowe all that was in his heart.
Kasi tango bakambi ya Babiloni batindelaki ye bakalaka mpo na kotuna ye na tina na elembo ya kokamwa oyo esalemaki kati na mokili, Nzambe atikaki Ezekiasi kosala na ndenge na ye moko mpo na komeka ye mpe koyeba mozindo ya motema na ye.
32 Concerning the rest of the actes of Hezekiah, and his goodnesse, beholde, they are written in the vision of Ishiah the Prophet, the sonne of Amoz, in the booke of the Kings of Iudah and Israel.
Makambo mosusu oyo etali Ezekiasi elongo na misala ya botosi na ye kati na makambo ya Nzambe, ekomama kati na emoniseli ya mosakoli Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, mpe kati na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele.
33 So Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in the highest sepulchre of the sonnes of Dauid: and all Iudah and the inhabitants of Ierusalem did him honour at his death: and Manasseh his sonne reigned in his stead.
Ezekiasi akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye, mpe bakundaki ye na ngomba moke epai wapi bakunda ya bakitani ya Davidi ezali. Bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi bapesaki ye lokumu tango akufaki, mpe Manase, mwana na ye ya mobali, akitanaki na ye na bokonzi.
