Ezekiel 9
1 And he cried out in my ears with a loud voice, saying: “The visitations of the city have drawn near, and each one has equipment for killing in his hand.”
Bongo nayokaki ye kobelela na mongongo makasi: « Bopusana awa, bino oyo bozali na mokumba ya kobebisa engumba! Tika ete moko na moko kati na bino asimba ebundeli na ye na loboko! »
2 And behold, six men were approaching from the way of the upper gate, which looks to the north. And each one had equipment for killing in his hand. Also, one man in their midst was clothed with linen, and an instrument for writing was at his waist. And they entered and stood beside the bronze altar.
Namonaki bato motoba koya wuta na nzela ya Ekuke oyo ya likolo, oyo etala na ngambo ya nor; moko na moko kati na bango asimbaki ebundeli oyo ebomaka na loboko na ye. Kati na bango, ezalaki na moto moko oyo alataki bilamba ya lino mpe azalaki na ekomeli na loketo na ye. Bakotaki na kati mpe batelemaki pene ya etumbelo ya bronze.
3 And the glory of the Lord of Israel was taken up, from the cherub upon which he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called out to the man who was clothed with linen and had an instrument for writing at his waist.
Nkembo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele elongwaki na likolo ya basheribe epai wapi ezalaki kowumela mpe ekendeki kino na ekotelo ya Tempelo; mpe Yawe abengisaki moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino mpe azalaki na ekomeli na loketo na ye.
4 And the Lord said to him: “Cross through the middle of the city, in the center of Jerusalem, and seal a Tau upon the foreheads of the grieving men, who are mourning over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst.”
Yawe alobaki na ye: « Tambola kati na Yelusalemi mpe tia bilembo na bilongi ya bato oyo bazali komona pasi na mitema mpe bazali kolela likolo ya makambo nyonso ya nkele oyo ezali kosalema kati na engumba oyo. »
5 And he said to the others, in my hearing: “Cross through the city after him, and strike! Your eye shall not be lenient, and you shall not take pity.
Wana nazalaki nanu koyoka, alobaki na bato mosusu: « Bolanda ye kati na engumba mpe boboma bato na mawa te, bobikisa ata moto moko te!
6 Kill, even to utter destruction, old men, young men, and virgins, little ones, and women. But all upon whom you see the Tau, you shall not kill. And begin from my sanctuary.” Therefore, they began with the men among the elders, who were before the face of the house.
Boboma bampaka, bilenge, basali ya mibali, basali ya basi mpe bana mike; kasi bomeka kosimba te moto nyonso oyo azali na elembo na elongi. Bobanda na Esika na Ngai ya bule! » Boye babandaki na bampaka oyo bazalaki liboso ya Tempelo.
7 And he said to them: “Defile the house, and fill its courts with the slain! Go forth!” And they went forth and struck down those who were in the city.
Alobaki na bango: « Bokomisa Tempelo mbindo mpe botondisa mapango na yango na bibembe. Bokende! » Babimaki mpe bakendeki koboma bato kati na engumba.
8 And when the slaughter was completed, I remained. And I fell upon my face, and crying out, I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Will you now destroy the entire remnant of Israel, by pouring out your fury upon Jerusalem?”
Tango bazalaki koboma bato, natikalaki ngai moko; nakweyaki elongi na ngai kino na mabele mpe nakomaki koganga: — Oh, Nkolo Yawe! Okosilisa solo koboma batikali nyonso ya Isalaele, na kopelisela Yelusalemi kanda na Yo?
9 And he said to me: “The iniquity of the house of Israel, and of Judah, is vast and exceedingly great, and the land has been filled with blood, and the city has been filled with what is abhorrent. For they have said: ‘The Lord has forsaken the earth,’ and, ‘The Lord does not see.’
Azongiselaki ngai: — Lisumu ya libota ya Isalaele mpe libota ya Yuda eleki monene makasi penza. Mokili etondi na makila, mpe engumba etondi na kozanga bosembo; pamba te bazali koloba: « Yawe asundoli mokili; Yawe azali komona eloko moko te. »
10 Therefore, my eye will not be lenient, and I will not take pity. I will repay their own way upon their head.”
Yango wana, Ngai mpe nakotala bango na liso ya mawa te mpe nakobikisa bango te. Kasi nakotanga mabe na bango na mito na bango.
11 And behold, the man who was clothed with linen, who had a writing instrument at his back, responded a word, saying: “I have done just as you instructed me.”
Moto oyo alataki elamba ya lino mpe azalaki na ekomeli na loketo na ye apesaki sango, na maloba oyo: « Nasali makambo oyo otindaki ngai. »
