< Jeremiah 33 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying:
Yawe alobaki na Jeremi, na mbala ya mibale, wana azalaki nanu ya kokangama kati na boloko oyo ezalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli:
2 Thus saith the Lord, who will do, and will form it, and prepare it, the Lord is his name.
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Ye oyo akela mabele, oyo abongisa yango malamu mpe alendisa yango, oyo Kombo na Ye ezali Yawe, alobi:
3 Cry to me and I will hear thee: and I will shew thee great things, and sure things which thou knowest not.
‹ Belela Ngai, mpe Ngai nakoyanola yo, nakoyebisa yo makambo minene mpe mabombami oyo oyebi te. ›
4 For thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to the houses of this city, and to the houses of the king of Juda, which rue destroyed, and to the bulwarks, and to the sword.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na bandako ya engumba oyo mpe ya bandako ya bakonzi ya Yuda, oyo babukaki mpo na kotelemela bangomba mike ya kokimela mpe mopanga ya monguna
5 Of them that come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of the men whom I have slain in my wrath, and in my indignation, hiding my face from this city because of all their wickedness.
kati na etumba na bato ya Babiloni: ‹ Bandako yango ekotonda na bibembe ya bato oyo nakoboma na nguya ya kotomboka mpe ya kanda na Ngai. Nakobombela engumba oyo elongi na Ngai likolo ya mabe na yango nyonso.
6 Behold I will close their wounds and give them health, and I will cure them: and I will reveal to them the prayer of peace and truth.
Kasi nakoyeisa bato na yango nzoto kolongono mpe nakobikisa bango; solo, nakobikisa bato na Ngai mpe nakopesa bango bomoi ya kimia kati na bobatelami.
7 And I will bring back the captivity of Juda, and the captivity of Jerusalem: and I will build them as from the beginning.
Nakokangola bato ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele longwa na bowumbu mpe nakokomisa bango lisusu ndenge bazalaki liboso.
8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me: and I will forgive all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against me, and despised me.
Nakopetola bango na masumu nyonso oyo basalaki liboso na Ngai. Nakolimbisa masumu nyonso ya botomboki oyo basalaki liboso na Ngai.
9 And it shall be to me a name, and a joy, and a praise, and a gladness before all the nations of the earth, that shall hear of all the good things which I will do to them: and they shall fear and be troubled for all the good things, and for all the peace that I will make for them.
Boye engumba oyo, Yelusalemi, ekosala lokumu, esengo, masanzoli mpe nkembo ya Kombo na Ngai liboso ya bikolo nyonso ya mabele, oyo ekoyoka sango ya makambo nyonso ya kitoko oyo nakosala mpo na yango. Bikolo yango ekokamwa mpe ekolenga na somo ya komona makambo nyonso ya kitoko mpe kimia oyo nakopesa na engumba yango. ›
10 Thus saith the Lord: There shall be heard again in this place (which you say is desolate, because there is neither man nor beast: in the cities of Juda, and without Jerusalem, which are desolate without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast)
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Bozali koloba na tina na esika oyo: ‘Eh! Esika oyo ebeba! Ezalaka lisusu na bato mpe banyama te!’ Nzokande, kati na bingumba ya Yuda mpe na babalabala ya Yelusalemi oyo ekoma polele, ezanga bato mpe banyama, ekozala lisusu na lokito:
11 The voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say: Give ye glory to the Lord of hosts, for the Lord is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring their vows into the house of the Lord: for I will bring back the captivity of the land as at the first, saith the Lord.
ekoyokana kuna lokito ya banzembo ya esengo mpe ya masanzoli, mingongo ya mobandami na libala ya mwasi mpe ya mobali, mpe mingongo ya bato oyo bazali kobonza kati na Tempelo ya Yawe makabo ya kozongisa matondi, na koloba: ‘Bozongisa matondi epai na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpo ete Yawe azali malamu; bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!’ Pamba te nakozongisa lisusu kitoko ya mokili yango ndenge ezalaki liboso, › elobi Yawe.
12 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: There shall be again in this place that is desolate without man, and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: ‹ Kati na esika oyo ebebisama mpe ezanga bato to banyama, mpe kati na bingumba na yango nyonso, ekozala na lisusu na bitando ya matiti mpo na babateli bibwele, bitando epai wapi bakoleisa bibwele na bango.
13 And in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are towards the south: and in the land of Benjamin, and round about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Juda shall the flocks pass again under the hand of him that numbereth them, saith the Lord.
Kati na bingumba ya bangomba, kati na bingumba ya bitando mpe kati na bingumba ya Negevi, kati na etuka ya Benjame, kati na bamboka oyo ezali zingazinga ya Yelusalemi mpe kati na bingumba ya Yuda, bibwele ekoleka lisusu na se ya loboko ya moto oyo atangaka yango, › elobi Yawe.
14 Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that I will perform the good word that I have spoken to the house of Israel, and to the house of Juda.
‹ Na mikolo ekoya, › elobi Yawe, ‹ nakokokisa elaka kitoko oyo napesaki na mabota ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda.
15 In those days, and at that time, I will make the bud of justice to spring forth unto David, and he shall do judgment and justice in the earth.
Na mikolo yango mpe na tango yango, nakobimisa Moto ya nzete ya sembo wuta na libota ya Davidi; akosala makambo ya sembo mpe ya boyengebene kati na mokili.
16 In those days shall Juda be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell securely: and this is the name that they shall call him, The Lord our just one.
Na mikolo wana, Yuda ekobikisama, mpe Yelusalemi ekozala na kimia. Tala kombo oyo bakobengela yango: Yawe azali Bosembo na biso. ›
17 For thus saith the Lord: There shall not be cut off from David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Davidi akozalaka tango nyonso na moto oyo akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya libota ya Isalaele;
18 Neither shall there be cut off from the priests and Levites a man before my face to offer holocausts, and to burn sacrifices, and to kill victims continually:
Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali bakitani ya Levi bakozalaka tango nyonso na bakitani oyo bakobanda kotelema tango nyonso liboso na Ngai mpo na kotumba mbeka, kobonza mbeka ya gato mpe kobonza makabo. › »
19 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
20 Thus saith the Lord: If my covenant with the day can be made void, and my covenant with the night, that there should not be day and night in their season:
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Soki bolongi kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na moyi, mpe boyokani na Ngai elongo na butu, mpo ete moyi mpe butu ekoma lisusu te na tango na yango,
21 Also my covenant with David my servant may be made void, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne, and with the Levites and priests my ministers.
wana bokolonga penza kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Davidi akotikala kozala lisusu te na mokitani na kiti ya bokonzi, mpe bokolonga kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na Balevi oyo bazali Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalelaka Ngai.
22 As the stars of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea be measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites my ministers.
Ndenge kaka bakoki kotanga te mampinga ya likolo mpe zelo ya bibale minene mpo na koyeba motango na yango, ndenge wana mpe nakokomisa ebele, bakitani ya Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Balevi oyo basalelaka Ngai. › »
23 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
24 Hast thou not seen what this people hath spoken, saying: The two families which the Lord had chosen, are cast off: and they have despised my people, so that it is no more a nation before them?
« Boni! Bozali koyoka te makambo bato oyo bazali kosala? Bazali koloba: ‹ Yawe asundoli bituka mibale oyo aponaki. › Na bongo, bazali kotiola bato na Ngai, mpe moto ata moko te azali kozwa bango lokola ekolo.
25 Thus saith the Lord: If I have not set my covenant between day and night, and laws to heaven and earth:
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Soki nasalaki boyokani te elongo na moyi mpe elongo na butu, mpe soki napesaki likolo mpe mabele mibeko te,
26 Surely I will also cast; off the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so as not to take any of his seed to be rulers of the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will bring back their captivity, and will have mercy on them.
wana nakokaki kobwaka bakitani ya Jakobi mpe ya Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe nalingaki te kopona moko kati na bana na ye mpo ete akamba bakitani ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Jakobi. Nakozongisa lisusu kitoko ya mokili na bango mpe nakoyokela bango mawa. › »
