Zacharias 12
1 The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel; says the Lord, that stretches out the sky, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him.
Liloba na Yawe. Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na tina na Isalaele. Yawe oyo atanda likolo mpe asala miboko ya mabele, Ye oyo atia Molimo na Ye kati na moto, alobi:
2 Behold, I [will] make Jerusalem as trembling door-posts to all the nations round about, and in Judea there shall be a siege against Jerusalem.
« Nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola kopo ya vino oyo elangwisaka bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na yango; bakozingela solo Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
3 And it shall come to pass in that day [that] I will make Jerusalem a trodden stone to all the nations: every one that tramples on it shall utterly mock at [it], and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.
Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola libanga ya kilo liboso ya bikolo nyonso; moto nyonso oyo akoluka kotombola yango akozoka; mpe bikolo nyonso ekosangana mpo na kobundisa Yelusalemi.
4 In that day, says the Lord Almighty, I will strike every horse with amazement, and his rider with madness: but I will open mine eyes upon the house of Juda, and I will strike all the horses of the nations with blindness.
Na mokolo wana, nakobangisa bampunda nyonso mpe nakokomisa batambolisi na yango liboma, » elobi Yawe. « Nakosenzela libota ya Yuda, kasi nakoboma miso ya bampunda nyonso ya bikolo.
5 And the captains of thousands of Juda shall say in their hearts, We shall find for ourselves the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the Lord Almighty their God.
Boye, bakambi ya Yuda bakomilobela: ‹ Bato ya Yelusalemi bazali makasi mpo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azali Nzambe na bango. ›
6 In that day I will make the captains of thousands of Juda as a firebrand amongst wood, and as a torch of fire in stubble; and they shall devour on the right hand and on the left all the nations round about: and Jerusalem shall dwell again by herself, [even] in Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa bakambi ya Yuda lokola moto kati na liboke ya bakoni, lokola koni ya moto na se ya liboke ya matiti ekawuka: bakozikisa bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na bango, ezala oyo ezali na ngambo ya loboko na bango ya mobali to ya mwasi. Kasi Yelusalemi ekotikala kaka na esika na yango.
7 And the Lord shall save the tabernacles of Juda as at the beginning, that the boast of the house of David, and the pride of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, may not magnify themselves against Juda.
Yawe akobikisa liboso bandako ya kapo ya Yuda mpo ete lokumu ya libota ya Davidi mpe ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi eleka te lokumu ya Yuda.
8 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the Lord shall defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and the weak one amongst them in that day shall be as David, and the house of David as the house of God, as the angel of the Lord before them.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akobatela bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpo ete bato ya bolembu kati na bango bakoma makasi lokola Davidi, mpe libota ya Davidi ekoma lokola Nzambe, lokola Anjelu ya Yawe, oyo azali kotambola liboso na bango.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, nakobima mpo na koboma bikolo nyonso oyo ekobundisa Yelusalemi.
10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and compassion: and they shall look upon me, because they have mocked [me], and they shall make lamentation for him, as for a beloved [friend], and they shall grieve intensely, as for a firstborn [son].
Nakosopa Molimo ya ngolu mpe ya mabondeli epai ya libota ya Davidi mpe epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi. Bakosembola miso na bango epai na Ngai oyo batobolaki. Bakosalela ye matanga ndenge kaka basalaka matanga ya mwana oyo abotama kaka ye moko; bakolela ye makasi ndenge balelaka mwana mobali ya liboso oyo asili kokufa.
11 In that day the lamentation in Jerusalem shall be very great, as the mourning for the pomegranate grove cut down in the plain.
Na mokolo wana, matanga kati na Yelusalemi ekozala monene lokola matanga ya Adadi-Rimoni na etando ya Megido.
12 And the land shall lament in separate families, the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;
Mokili mobimba ekosala matanga, etuka na etuka na esika na yango elongo na basi na yango: etuka ya libota ya Davidi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Natan elongo na basi na yango,
13 the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Symeon by itself, and their wives by themselves;
etuka ya libota ya Levi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Shimei elongo na basi na yango,
14 all the families that are left, each family by itself, and their wives by themselves.
mpe bituka nyonso oyo etikali elongo na basi na yango.
