Jeremiah 44
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who dwelt in the land of Egypt, who dwelt at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
Tala liloba oyo Jeremi azwaki na tina na Bayuda oyo bazalaki kovanda na Ejipito, na se ya bingumba ya Migidoli, na Dafine, na Mefisi mpe na Patrosi:
2 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and behold they are, this day, a waste, and no man dwelleth therein,
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Bomonaki pasi makasi oyo natindaki na Yelusalemi mpe na bingumba nyonso ya Yuda. Na mokolo ya lelo, etikali pamba mpe ebebisami makasi
3 because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense to serve other gods which they knew not, they, [nor] ye, nor your fathers.
likolo ya mabe oyo basalaki. Bapesaki Ngai kanda tango bakomaki kotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka mpe kosalela banzambe mosusu oyo batikalaki koyeba te, ezala bango to bino to batata na bino.
4 And I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing which I hate!
Nzokande, nazalaki tango na tango kotinda basali na Ngai, basakoli, mpo na koloba na bino: ‹ Bosala te makambo ya nkele oyo nayinaka. ›
5 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.
Kasi batikalaki koyoka te mpe batosaki te; batikaki mabe na bango te mpe bakobaki kaka kotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka epai ya banzambe mosusu.
6 And my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are become a waste, a desolation, as at this day.
Yango wana, kanda makasi na Ngai epelaki mpe ebebisaki bingumba ya Yuda mpe babalabala ya Yelusalemi; mpe lisusu ebukaki-bukaki yango ndenge ezali komonana lelo.
7 And now thus saith Jehovah the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Wherefore commit ye great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, infant and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, to leave you no remnant;
Sik’oyo tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga mpe Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Mpo na nini bozali komimemela pasi ya makasi boye kino mokili ya Yuda ezangela mibali, basi, babebe mpe etikala lisusu ata na moto moko te?
8 provoking me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are come to sojourn, that ye should be cut off, and that ye should be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
Mpo na nini bozali kopelisa kanda na Ngai na nzela ya misala na bino ya mabe, na kotumbaka malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka epai ya banzambe mosusu ya Ejipito epai wapi bokeyi kovanda? Bino moko nde bozali komibebisa mpe komikomisa bato ya libabe mpe eloko ya kotiola kati ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili.
9 Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Bobosani mabe oyo batata na bino, bakonzi mpe basi ya bakonzi ya Yuda basalaki? Bobosani mabe oyo bino mpe basi na bino bosalaki kati na mokili ya Yuda mpe kati na babalabala ya Yelusalemi?
10 They are not humbled unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes which I set before you and before your fathers.
Kino lelo, bamikitisi te, batosi Ngai te, batosi mibeko mpe malako na Ngai te, oyo napesaki bino mpe batata na bino.
11 Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Nazwi mokano ya komemela bino pasi mpe ya kobebisa mokili nyonso ya Yuda.
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to enter into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed: in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword [and] by the famine, from the least even unto the greatest; they shall die by the sword and by the famine, and they shall be an execration, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
Nakokanga batikali ya Yuda, ba-oyo batingamaki koya kovanda awa na Ejipito; bango nyonso bakokufa kati na Ejipito, na mopanga mpe na nzala makasi, kobanda na ye oyo aleki moke kino na ye oyo aleki monene; bakokufa na mopanga mpe na nzala makasi, mpe bakobanda kotangaka kombo na bango mpo na kolakela bato mabe; bakokoma eloko ya koyoka somo, eloko ya lisuma mpe eloko ya kotiola.
13 And I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
Nakopesa bavandi ya Ejipito etumbu na mopanga, na nzala makasi mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka, ndenge napesaki Yelusalemi etumbu.
14 and none of the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, so as to return into the land of Judah, whither they have a desire to return to dwell there; for none shall return but such as shall escape.
Kati na batikali ya Yuda oyo bayaki kovanda na Ejipito, moko te akobika to akotikala na bomoi, ata soki ayoki posa ya kozonga mpo na kovanda na mokili ya Yuda, bato moke kaka nde bakozonga. »
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assemblage, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
Mibali nyonso oyo bayebaki ete basi na bango bazalaki kotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka epai ya banzambe mosusu, elongo na basi nyonso oyo bazalaki wana kati na lisanga monene mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda na Ejipito ya se mpe ya likolo balobaki na Jeremi:
16 [As for] the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of Jehovah, we will not hearken unto thee,
— Te! Tokoyoka te makambo oyo ozali koyebisa biso na kombo ya Yawe.
17 but we will certainly do every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and we had plenty of bread, and were well, and saw no evil.
Tokosala nde makambo nyonso oyo biso tokanaki kosala: tokotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka mpo na Ishitari mpe tokosopa makabo ya masanga ya vino mpo na ye ndenge biso, batata na biso, bakonzi na biso mpe bakalaka na biso tosalaki kati na bingumba ya Yuda mpe na babalabala ya Yelusalemi; mpe na tango wana, tozalaki na bilei ebele, tozalaki malamu mpe tozalaki komona pasi te.
18 But since we left off burning incense to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out drink-offerings to her, we have wanted everything, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
Kasi wuta kaka tango totikaki kotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka mpe kosopa makabo ya masanga ya vino epai ya Ishitari, tozangela nyonso mpe tokoma kokufa na mopanga mpe na nzala makasi.
19 And when we burned incense to the queen of the heavens and poured out drink-offerings to her, did we make for her cakes to portray her, and pour out drink-offerings to her, without our husbands?
Basi babakisaki: — Kutu, tango tozalaki kotumba malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka mpe kosopa makabo ya masanga ya vino epai ya Ishitari, boni, mibali na biso bayebaki te ete tozali kosala bagato na elilingi na ye mpe kosopa makabo ya masanga ya vino epai na ye?
20 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people that had given him that answer, saying,
Bongo Jeremi alobaki na bato nyonso, mibali mpe basi, oyo bapesaki ye eyano wana:
21 Is it not the incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye and your fathers, your kings and your princes and the people of the land, that Jehovah remembered, and that came into his mind?
— Boni, bokanisi ete Yawe abosani mpe azali kokanisa lisusu te malasi ya ansa oyo botumbaki kati na bingumba ya Yuda mpe na babalabala ya Yelusalemi, bino, batata na bino, bakonzi na bino, bakalaka na bino mpe bato nyonso ya mokili?
22 And Jehovah could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, [and] because of the abominations that ye had committed; and your land is become a waste, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as at this day.
Yawe akokaki lisusu te kokanga motema liboso ya misala na bino ya mabe mpe ya nkele; ezali mpo na yango nde mokili na bino ekomi elanga ya libebi, etando ebebisama, eloko ya lisuma mpe etikali lisusu na bato te, ndenge ezali komonana na mokolo ya lelo.
23 Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil hath come upon you, as at this day.
Mpo ete botumbaki malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka mpe bosalaki masumu liboso ya Yawe, mpo ete botosaki Yawe te mpe bolandaki te Mobeko na Ye, bikateli na Ye mpe malako na Ye, yango wana pasi oyo ekomeli bino ndenge bozali komona yango lelo.
24 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt.
Jeremi alobaki na bato nyonso mpe epai ya basi nyonso: — Bino bato nyonso ya Yuda oyo bozali kati na Ejipito, boyoka Liloba na Yawe:
25 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, We will certainly perform our vows which we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her. Ye will certainly establish your vows, and entirely perform your vows.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Bino mpe basi na bino, bomonisi na nzela ya misala na bino elaka oyo bopesaki tango bolobaki: « Tokokokisa solo ndayi oyo tolapaki ete tokotumba malasi ya ansa mpe tokosopa makabo ya masanga ya vino epai ya Ishitari, nzambe mwasi ya bato ya Babiloni. » Bokende! Bosala ndenge bolobi mpe bokokisa ndayi na bino!
26 Therefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Jehovah, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, [As] the Lord Jehovah liveth.
Kasi mpo na yango, boyoka Liloba na Yawe, bino Bayuda nyonso oyo bozali kovanda kati na Ejipito: « Tala, nalapi ndayi na Kombo na Ngai ya monene, » elobi Yawe, « moto moko te oyo awuta na mokili ya Yuda, bongo avandi na esika songolo ya Ejipito, akobelela to mpe akolapa ndayi na Kombo na Ngai, na koloba: ‹ Lokola Nkolo Yawe azali na bomoi! ›
27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
Pamba te nazali kolandela bango malamu mpo ete bamona pasi kasi bolamu te. Bato nyonso ya Yuda kati na Ejipito bakokufa na mopanga mpe na nzala makasi kino tango bango nyonso bakosila kobebisama.
28 And they that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, a very small company; and all the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine or theirs.
Kaka ndambo moke ya bato nde ekobika na mopanga mpe ekozonga na mokili ya Yuda, wuta na Ejipito. Boye, batikali nyonso ya Yuda, ba-oyo nyonso bayaki kovanda na Ejipito, bakoyeba soki liloba ya nani nde ekokokisama: ya Ngai to ya bango.
29 And this shall be the sign unto you, saith Jehovah, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall certainly stand against you for evil:
Ekozala elembo ete nakopesa bino etumbu na esika oyo, » elobi Yawe, « mpo ete boyeba solo ete pasi oyo nalakaki bino ekokokisama kaka. »
30 thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will give Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Nakokaba Faraon Ofira, mokonzi ya Ejipito, na maboko ya banguna na ye oyo bazali koluka bomoi na ye, ndenge kaka nakabaki Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na maboko ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, oyo azalaki koluka bomoi na ye. »
