Malachi 4
1 For see, the day is coming, it is burning like an oven; all the men of pride and all who do evil will be dry stems of grass: and in the day which is coming they will be burned up, says the Lord of armies, till they have not a root or a branch.
Pamba te mokolo yango ezali koya; ekozala moto makasi lokola fulu ya moto. Bato nyonso ya lofundu mpe bato nyonso oyo basalaka mabe bakokoma lokola matiti ya kokawuka. Mokolo yango ekozikisa bango, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga. « Ekotikala ata mosisa to etape te.
2 But to you who give worship to my name, the sun of righteousness will come up with new life in its wings; and you will go out, playing like young oxen full of food.
Kasi mpo na bino oyo botosaka Kombo na Ngai, moyi ya bosembo ekobima mpe ekomemela bino lobiko. Boye, bokobina mpe bokopumbwa na esengo lokola bana ngombe ya mibali kati na lopango.
3 And the evil-doers will be crushed under you, they will be dust under your feet, in the day when I do my work, says the Lord of armies.
Bokonyata bato mabe, pamba te bakokoma lokola putulu na se ya matambe na bino, na mokolo oyo nazali kobongisa, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
4 Keep in mind the law of Moses, my servant, which I gave him in Horeb for all Israel, even the rules and the decisions.
« Bokanisa Mobeko, malako mpe mitindo oyo napesaki epai ya Moyize, mosali na Ngai, na ngomba Orebi, mpo na Isalaele mobimba.
5 See, I am sending you Elijah the prophet before the day of the Lord comes, that great day, greatly to be feared.
Liboso ete mokolo ya Yawe eya, mokolo monene mpe ya somo, nakotindela bino mosakoli Eliya.
6 And by him the hearts of fathers will be turned to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers; for fear that I may come and put the earth under a curse.
Akozongisa mitema ya batata epai ya bana, mpe mitema ya bana epai ya batata, soki te nakoya kobebisa mokili na nzela ya bilakeli mabe. »
