< Jeremiah 20 >

1 When Pashhur the priest, the son of Immer and the chief official in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things,
Nganga-Nzambe Pashuri, mwana mobali ya Imeri, mokonzi ya Tempelo ya Yawe, ayokaki ndenge Jeremi azalaki kosakola.
2 he had Jeremiah the prophet beaten and put in the stocks at the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was by the house of the LORD.
Nganga-Nzambe Pashuri abetisaki Mosakoli Jeremi fimbu mpe akangisaki ye na likonzi oyo ezalaki na ekuke ya likolo ya Benjame, ekuke oyo ememaka na Tempelo ya Yawe.
3 The next day, when Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “The LORD does not call you Pashhur, but Magor-missabib.
Mokolo oyo elandaki, tango Pashuri alongolaki ye na likonzi, Jeremi alobaki na ye: — Yawe akobenga yo lisusu Pashuri te, kasi Magori-Misabibe.
4 For this is what the LORD says: ‘I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. They will fall by the sword of their enemies before your very eyes. And I will hand Judah over to the king of Babylon, and he will carry them away to Babylon and put them to the sword.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Nakotindela yo mpe balingami na yo nyonso makambo ya somo; okomona na miso na yo ndenge nini bakokweya na mopanga liboso ya banguna na bango. Nakokaba Yuda nyonso na maboko ya mokonzi ya Babiloni oyo akomema bango na bowumbu, na Babiloni, to akoboma bango na mopanga.
5 I will give away all the wealth of this city—all its products and valuables, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah—to their enemies. They will plunder them, seize them, and carry them off to Babylon.
Nakokaba bozwi nyonso ya engumba oyo na maboko ya banguna na bango: biloko nyonso ya engumba, biloko ya talo mpe bomengo nyonso ya mokonzi ya Yuda; bakokamata yango mpe bakomema yango na mokili ya Babiloni.
6 And you, Pashhur, and all who live in your house, will go into captivity. You will go to Babylon, and there you will die and be buried—you and all your friends to whom you have prophesied these lies.’”
Mpo na yo Pashuri mpe bavandi nyonso ya ndako na yo, bokokende na bowumbu na mokili ya Babiloni. Bokokufa mpe bakokunda bino kuna, ezala yo to balingami na yo nyonso oyo bosakolaki makambo ya lokuta epai na bango. »
7 You have deceived me, O LORD, and I was deceived. You have overcome me and prevailed. I am a laughingstock all day long; everyone mocks me.
Eh Yawe, okosaki-kosaki ngai, mpe nakosamaki penza; olekaki ngai na makasi mpe olongaki ngai. Bazali kotiola ngai mikolo nyonso, bato nyonso bazali kaka koseka ngai.
8 For whenever I speak, I cry out; I proclaim violence and destruction. For the word of the LORD has become to me a reproach and derision all day long.
Na tango nyonso oyo nalobaka, nagangaka makasi mpo na kosakola kaka mobulu mpe kobebisama. Mokolo na mokolo, Liloba na Yawe ememelaka ngai kofingama mpe pamela ya mabe.
9 If I say, “I will not mention Him or speak any more in His name,” His message becomes a fire burning in my heart, shut up in my bones, and I become weary of holding it in, and I cannot prevail.
Kasi soki nalobi: « Nakotanga lisusu Kombo na Ye te, » Liloba na Ye kati na motema na ngai ekomaka lokola moto oyo ezali kopela kino na mikuwa na ngai; nalongaka te kokanga yango, nakokaka te!
10 For I have heard the whispering of many: “Terror is on every side! Report him; let us report him!” All my trusted friends watch for my fall: “Perhaps he will be deceived so that we may prevail against him and take our vengeance upon him.”
Nazali koyoka bato ebele koloba na se se se: « Botala! Somo na bangambo nyonso! Bofunda ye! Tofunda ye! » Baninga na ngai nyonso bazali kozela kokweya na ngai, bazali koloba: « Tango mosusu akokosama, tokokanga ye kaka mpe tokozongisela ye mabe! »
11 But the LORD is with me like a fearsome warrior. Therefore, my persecutors will stumble and will not prevail. Since they have not succeeded, they will be utterly put to shame, with an everlasting disgrace that will never be forgotten.
Kasi Yawe azali elongo na ngai lokola Elombe ya bitumba; boye, banyokoli na ngai bakokweya mpe mikano na bango ekokokisama te; bakotikala na soni mpe bakolonga te, bakobosana ata mokolo moko te soni na bango.
12 O LORD of Hosts, who examines the righteous, who sees the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.
Eh Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Yo oyo omonaka mitema ya bayengebene mpe oyebaka malamu makanisi ya mitema ya bato, tika ete namona Yo kozongisela bango mabe, pamba te napesi likambo na ngai na maboko na Yo!
13 Sing to the LORD! Praise the LORD! For He rescues the life of the needy from the hands of evildoers.
Boyembela Yawe! Bokumisa Yawe! Pamba te abikisaka bomoi ya mobola na maboko ya bato mabe.
14 Cursed be the day I was born! May the day my mother bore me never be blessed.
Tika ete mokolo ya mbotama na ngai elakelama mabe! Tika ete mokolo oyo mama na ngai abotaki ngai epambolama te!
15 Cursed be the man who brought my father the news, saying, “A son is born to you,” bringing him great joy.
Tika ete alakelama mabe, moto oyo amemelaki tata na ngai sango oyo esepelisaki motema na ye: « Baboteli yo mwana, mwana mobali! »
16 May that man be like the cities that the LORD overthrew without compassion. May he hear an outcry in the morning and a battle cry at noon,
Tika ete moto yango akoma lokola bingumba oyo Yawe abuki na mawa te! Tika ete ayoka bileli na tongo mpe makelele ya bitumba na midi.
17 because he did not kill me in the womb so that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb forever enlarged.
Mpo na nini Nzambe abomaki ngai te kati na libumu ya mama na ngai, oyo alingaki kozala kunda na ngai, mpe libumu na ye elingaki kobomba ngai libela na libela?
18 Why did I come out of the womb to see only trouble and sorrow, and to end my days in shame?
Mpo na nini penza nabimaki na libumu ya mama na ngai? Ezali kaka mpo na komona pasi mpe mikakatano, mpe kosukisa bomoi na ngai na soni?
