Ezekiel 8
1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the ancients of Juda sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me.
Na mobu ya motoba, na mokolo ya mitano ya sanza ya motoba, wana nazalaki ya kovanda kati na ndako na ngai, mpe bakambi ya Yuda bavandaki liboso na ngai, loboko ya Nkolo Yawe esimbaki ngai kuna.
2 And I saw, and behold a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins, and downward, fire: and from his loins, and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the appearance of amber.
Tango natalaki, namonaki elilingi moko lokola elongi ya moto. Eteni oyo ezalaki komonana lokola se ya loketo na yango ezalaki lokola moto, mpe lolenge ya eteni oyo ezalaki komonana lokola likolo ya loketo na yango ezalaki kongenga makasi lokola linzanza ya sika.
3 And the likeness of a hand was put forth and took me by a lock of my head: and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the vision of God into Jerusalem, near the inner gate, that looked toward the north, where was set the idol of jealousy to provoke to jealousy.
Asembolaki elilingi moko lokola loboko mpe asimbaki ngai na suki ya moto. Molimo atombolaki ngai na kati-kati ya se mpe likolo mpe amemaki ngai, kati na emoniseli ya Nzambe, kino na Yelusalemi, na ekotelo ya Ekuke ya nor ya lopango ya kati ya Tempelo, epai wapi batelemisaki nzambe ya ekeko oyo etumbolaka zuwa.
4 And behold the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I had seen in the plain.
Nkembo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele ezalaki kuna ndenge kaka namonaki yango na emoniseli kati na lubwaku.
5 And he said to me: Son of man, lift up thy eyes towards the way of the north. And I lifted up my eyes towards the way of the north: and behold on the north side of the gate of the altar the idol of jealousy in the very entry.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala na ngambo ya nor. » Natombolaki miso na ngai mpe namonaki nzambe ya ekeko ya zuwa, na ekotelo ya Ekuke oyo ya nor ya etumbelo.
6 And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou see, thinkest thou, what these are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should depart far off from my sanctuary? and turn thee yet again and thou shalt see greater abominations.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, ozali komona makambo oyo bazali kosala, makambo mabe mpe ya nkele oyo libota ya Isalaele bazali kosala awa, makambo oyo ekokomisa Ngai mosika ya Esika na Ngai ya bule? Kasi okomona lisusu makambo oyo ezali mabe koleka. »
7 And he brought me in to the door of the court: and I saw, and behold a hole in the wall.
Amemaki ngai na ekotelo ya lopango. Tango natalaki, namonaki lidusu moko na mir.
8 And he said to me: Son of man, dig in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tobola mir. » Tango natobolaki yango, namonaki ekuke moko kuna.
9 And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here.
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Kota; okomona makambo mabe mpe ya nkele oyo bazali kosala awa! »
10 And I went in and saw, and behold every form of creeping things, and of living creatures, the abomination, and all the idols of the house of Israel, were painted on the wall all round about.
Tango nakotaki, natalaki mpe namonaki ete bakomakoma na bamir bililingi ya miselekete mpe ya banyoka ya lolenge nyonso, ya banyama nyonso ya mbindo mpe ya banzambe nyonso ya bikeko ya libota ya Isalaele.
11 And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them, that stood before the pictures: and every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense.
Bongo, liboso na yango, bakambi tuku sambo ya libota ya Isalaele batelemaki; mpe moko na moko kati na bango asimbaki mbabola oyo batumbelaka malasi: ezalaki kobimisa milinga ya solo ya ansa. Yazania, mwana mobali ya Shafani, azalaki mpe elongo na bango.
12 And he said to me: Surely thou seest. O son of man, what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every one in private in his chamber: for they say: The Lord seeth us not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth.
Molimo alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, omoni makambo oyo bakambi ya libota ya Isalaele bazali kosala, moko na moko kati na esika ya bule ya nzambe na ye ya ekeko? Bazali koloba: ‹ Yawe azali komona biso te, Yawe asili na Ye kosundola mokili! › »
13 And he said to me: If thou turn thee again, thou shalt see greater abominations which these commit.
Alobaki lisusu: « Okomona bango ndenge bazali kosala makambo ya mbindo oyo eleki penza mabe. »
14 And he brought me in by the door of the gate of the Lord’s house, which looked to the north: and behold women sat there mourning for Adonis.
Bongo amemaki ngai lisusu na ekotelo ya Ekuke ya ngambo ya nor ya Tempelo ya Yawe; bongo namonaki basi bavandi wana, bazali kolela Tamuzi.
15 And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: but turn thee again: and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, omoni makambo oyo? Okomona lisusu makambo ya mbindo koleka oyo ya liboso. »
16 And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord: and behold at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men having their backs towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces to the east: and they adored towards the rising of the sun.
Akotisaki ngai kati na lopango ya kati ya Tempelo ya Yawe: na ekotelo ya Tempelo, bato tuku mibale na mitano bazalaki na kati-kati ya ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo mpe etumbelo; bapesaki mikongo na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bilongi na bango ezalaki kotala na ngambo ya este; bazalaki kogumbama na kotalaka na ngambo ya este mpo na kogumbamela moyi.
17 And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: is this a light thing to the house of Juda, that they should commit these abominations which they have committed here: because they have filled the land with iniquity, and have turned to provoke me to anger? and behold they put a branch to their nose.
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Mwana na moto, omoni? Boni, ezali penza pamba mpo na libota ya Yuda kosala makambo ya nkele oyo bazali kosala na esika oyo? Batondisa lisusu mokili na makambo na bango ya kanza mpo na kokoba kotumbola kanda na Ngai? Tala ndenge bazali kotombola mandalala kino na zolo!
18 Therefore I also will deal with them in my wrath: my eye shall not spare them, neither will I shew mercy: and when they shall cry to my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.
Mpo na yango, Ngai mpe nakopesa bango etumbu na kanda, nakoyokela bango mawa te mpe nakobikisa bango te. Ata bagangi na matoyi na Ngai, nakoyoka bango te. »
