< Amos 9 >

1 I saw the Lord standing over an altar, and he said: “Strike the hinges, and let the lintels be shaken. For there is avarice at the head of them all, and I will execute the very last of them with the sword. There will be no escape for them. They will flee, and he who flees from among them will not be saved.
Namonaki Yawe atelemi pene ya etumbelo, mpe alobaki: « Buka makonzi ya Tempelo mpo ete ndako mobimba eningana mpe ekweyela bato nyonso na mito. Bato oyo bakotikala, nakoboma bango na mopanga. Moko te akokima, moko te akobika.
2 If they descend even to the underworld, from there my hand will draw them out; and if they ascend even to the sky, from there will I pull them down. (Sheol h7585)
Soki bakimi na se ya mabele, na mboka ya bakufi, loboko na Ngai ekobimisa bango kuna; soki bakimi na Lola, nakokitisa bango na se. (Sheol h7585)
3 And if they were hiding at the top of Carmel, when searching there, I would steal them away, and if they conceal themselves from my eyes in the depths of the sea, I will command the serpent there and he will bite them.
Soki babombami na songe ya ngomba Karimeli, nakokanga bango mpe nakokitisa bango na se; soki babombami Ngai na se ya ebale monene, nakopesa mitindo na nyoka ete eswa bango kuna.
4 And if they go into captivity in the sight of their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. And I will set my eyes over them for harm and not for good.”
Ezala banguna na bango bamemi bango na bowumbu, nakopesa mitindo na mopanga ete eboma bango kuna. Miso na Ngai ekozala likolo na bango mpo na kosala bango mabe, kasi bolamu te.
5 And the Lord God of hosts, he touches the earth and it will melt. And all who dwell in it will mourn. And everyone will rise up like a river, and will flow away like the river of Egypt.
Soki Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, asimbi mabele, mabele eninganaka, mpe bavandi na yango nyonso bakomaka na matanga, mokili mobimba etelemaka lokola ebale Nili mpe ekawukaka lokola mayi ya Ejipito.
6 He establishes his ascension into heaven, and he has founded his bundle on the earth. He calls the waters of the ocean, and pours them over the face of the earth. The Lord is his name.
Yawe atonga ndako na Ye kati na Lola mpe atia miboko na yango na mabele; abengaka mayi ya ebale monene mpe asopaka yango na etando ya mabele. Kombo na Ye ezali: Yawe.
7 Sons of Israel, are you not like the sons of the Ethiopians to me, says the Lord? Did I not cause Israel to rise up out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines out of Cappadocia, and the Syrians out of Cyrene?
Bino bana ya Isalaele, boni, bokokani te na bato ya mokili ya Kushi? » elobi Yawe. « Boni, nabimisaki te Isalaele wuta na Ejipito, bato ya Filisitia wuta na Kreti, bato ya Siri wuta na Kiri?
8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinning kingdom, and I will wipe it from the face of the earth. Though truly, when destroying, I will not wipe away the house of Jacob, says the Lord.
Solo, miso ya Nkolo Yawe ezali kotala bokonzi ya masumu; nakobebisa mpe nakolongola yango na mabele. Nzokande, nakobebisa te libota mobimba ya Jakobi, » elobi Yawe.
9 For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, as wheat is sifted in a sieve. And not even one small stone will fall to the ground.
« Pamba te nakopesa mitindo mpe nakoningisa libota ya Isalaele kati na bikolo nyonso ndenge bayungolaka ble; bongo ata mbuma moko te ya moke ekokweya na se.
10 All the sinners of my people will die by the sword. They say, “Disaster will not come near us, and it will not overcome us.”
Bato nyonso ya masumu kati na bato na Ngai bakokufa na mopanga, ba-oyo nyonso balobaka: ‹ Pasi ekotikala te kozwa to kokomela biso! ›
11 In that day, I will raise up the tabernacle of David, which is fallen. And I will repair the breaches in its walls, and I will restore that which collapsed. And I will rebuild it, just as in the days of antiquity,
Na mokolo wana, nakotonga lisusu ndako ya Davidi oyo ekweya, nakobamba madusu na yango, nakotelemisa lisusu bamir na yango oyo ebukana mpe nakotonga yango lisusu ndenge ezalaka kala,
12 so that they may possess the remnant of Idumea and all the nations, for my name has been invoked over them, says the Lord who does this.
mpo ete bakoka kozwa ndambo ya mokili ya Edomi oyo etikalaki, mpe ya bikolo nyonso oyo babengamaka na Kombo na Ngai, » elobi Yawe oyo asalaka makambo wana nyonso.
13 Behold, the days pass, says the Lord, and the plower will overtake the harvester, and the treader of grapes will overtake the sower of seed. And the mountains will drip sweetness, and every hill will be cultivated.
« Mikolo ezali koya, » elobi Yawe, « mikolo oyo mosali bilanga akobuka bambuma na yango noki, mpe moloni elanga ya vino akokamola vino noki. Vino ya sika ekobota na bangomba milayi mpe ekosopana na bangomba mikuse nyonso.
14 And I will turn back the captivity of my people Israel. And they will rebuild the deserted cities and inhabit them. And they will plant vineyards and drink their wine. And they will create gardens and eat their fruits.
Nakozongisa Isalaele, bato na Ngai, oyo bakendeki na bowumbu, mpe bakotonga lisusu bingumba oyo ebebisamaki mpe bakovanda kati na yango. Bakolona banzete ya vino mpe bakomela vino na yango, bakolona bilanga mpe bakolia bambuma na yango.
15 And I will plant them on their own soil. And I will no longer root them out of their own land, which I have given them, says the Lord your God.
Nakolona bango na mabele na bango moko, mpe bakotikala kopikola bango lisusu te na mabele oyo napesaki bango, » elobi Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
