Zechariah 10
1 Ask the LORD for rain in springtime; the LORD makes the storm clouds, and He will give everyone showers of rain and crops in the field.
Bosenga epai na Yawe ete anokisa mvula ya suka; ezali Yawe nde atindaka mapata mpe bakake oyo ememaka bamvula minene, Ye nde abimisaka matiti na elanga ya moko na moko.
2 For idols speak deceit and diviners see illusions; they tell false dreams and offer empty comfort. Therefore the people wander like sheep, oppressed for lack of a shepherd.
Nzokande, banzambe ya bikeko elobaka maloba ya pamba, mpe bimoniseli ya bato ya soloka ezalaka ya lokuta: bazwaka bandoto oyo ezanga tina, mpe malendisi na bango ezalaka ya lokuta. Yango wana, bato bakomaki kotelengana lokola bibwele oyo ezangi mobateli.
3 “My anger burns against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders. For the LORD of Hosts attends to His flock, the house of Judah; He will make them like His royal steed in battle.
Kanda na Ngai ya makasi epeli mpo na babateli, mpe nakopesa bakambi etumbu, pamba te Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ayei mpo na kobatela etonga na Ye, libota ya Yuda; akokomisa bango mpunda na Ye ya lokumu kati na bitumba.
4 The cornerstone will come from Judah, the tent peg from him, as well as the battle bow and every ruler together.
Na Yuda nde ekobimela libanga ya songe ya ndako, likonzi ya ndako ya kapo, tolotolo ya bitumba mpe bakambi nyonso.
5 They will be like mighty men in battle, trampling the enemy in the mire of the streets. They will fight because the LORD is with them, and they will put the horsemen to shame.
Bango nyonso bakokoma lokola bilombe ya bitumba, oyo bakangamaka te na potopoto ya babalabala na tango ya bitumba. Lokola Yawe azali elongo na bango, bakobunda mpe bakolonga, ata basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda.
6 I will strengthen the house of Judah and save the house of Joseph. I will restore them because I have compassion on them, and they will be as though I had not rejected them. For I am the LORD their God, and I will answer them.
« Nakolendisa libota ya Yuda mpe nakobikisa libota ya Jozefi, nakozongisa bango lisusu na mokili na bango, pamba te nakoyokela bango mawa; bakozala lokola bato oyo nasundolaki te, pamba te nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe nakoyanola bango.
7 Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their hearts will be glad as with wine. Their children will see it and be joyful; their hearts will rejoice in the LORD.
Bato ya Efrayimi bakokoma lokola bilombe ya bitumba; mitema na bango ekotonda na esengo lokola bato bameli masanga; bana na bango ya mibali bakomona yango mpe bakotonda na esengo, bongo mitema na bango ekosepela kati na Yawe.
8 I will whistle for them to gather, for I have redeemed them; and they will be as numerous as they once were.
Nakobeta piololo mpo na kobenga bango mpe nakosangisa bango esika moko. Solo, nakokangola bango, mpe bakokoma ebele ndenge bazalaki liboso.
9 Though I sow them among the nations, they will remember Me in distant lands; they and their children will live and return.
Ata soki napanzi bango kati na bikolo ya bapaya, ezala na mokili oyo eleki mosika, bakokanisa Ngai kaka. Bango elongo na bana na bango ya mibali bakobika mpe bakozonga na mokili na bango.
10 I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon until no more room is found for them.
Nakozongisa bango wuta na Ejipito; nakosangisa bango wuta na Asiri; nakomema bango na Galadi mpe na Libani; kasi atako bongo, esika ya kovanda ekozala moke mpo na bango.
11 They will pass through the sea of distress and strike the waves of the sea; all the depths of the Nile will dry up. The pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.
Bakoleka na kati-kati ya ebale monene ya mitungisi; bambonge ya ebale monene ekovanda kimia, bozindo nyonso ya ebale Nili ekokawuka. Lolendo ya Asiri ekosila mpe lingenda ya bokonzi ya Ejipito ekolongwa.
12 I will strengthen them in the LORD, and in His name they will walk,”
Nakosala ete balendisama kati na Yawe: bakotambola na Kombo na Ye, » elobi Yawe.
