Jeremiah 51
1 Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will raise up as it were a pestilential wind against Babylon and against the inhabitants thereof, who have lifted up their heart against me.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Tala, nakotinda mopepe ya makasi mpo na kobebisa mokili ya Babiloni mpe bato ya Lebi-Kamayi.
2 And I will send to Babylon fanners, and they shall fan her, and shall destroy her land: for they are come upon her on every side in the day of her affliction.
Nakotinda bapaya na Babiloni mpo na koyungola mpe kobebisa yango: bakobundisa yango na bangambo nyonso na mokolo na yango ya kosambisama.
3 Let not him that bendeth, bend his bow, and let not, him go up that is armed with a coat of mail: spare not her young men, destroy all her army.
Basoda oyo babundaka na matolotolo bakozwa tango te ya kobeta makonga na bango; bakozwa tango te ya kolata bibombelo ya tolo, bakobikisa te basoda na bango ya bilenge mpe bakoboma mampinga na bango nyonso.
4 And the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and the wounded in the regions thereof.
Bato oyo bakokweya na mopanga bakotondisa mokili ya Babiloni mpe babalabala na yango ekotonda na bato bazoka bapota.
5 For Israel and Juda have not been forsaken by their God the Lord of hosts: but their land hath been filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
Ata soki mokili na bango etondaki na masumu liboso ya Mosantu ya Isalaele, Nzambe na bango, Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, abosanaki Isalaele na Yuda te.
6 Flee ye from the midst of Babylon, and let every one save his own life: be not silent upon her iniquity: for it is the time of revenge from the Lord, he will I render unto her what she hath deserved.
Bobima na Babiloni, bobikisa bomoi na bino! Soki te, bokokufa likolo ya masumu na bango. Ezali tango oyo Yawe alingi kozongisela bango mabe na mabe mpe kofuta bango ndenge ezali misala na bango.
7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, that made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine, and therefore they have staggered.
Babiloni ezali lokola kopo ya wolo na loboko ya Yawe; ezalaki kolangwisa mokili mobimba. Bongo bato ya bikolo bameli masanga na yango mpe bakomi lokola bazoba.
8 Babylon is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.
Babiloni ekokweya na mbalakata mpe ekobukana! Bosala matanga mpo na yango mpe botia kisi na pota na yango, tango mosusu akobika.
9 We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.
‹ Tozalaki na posa ya kobikisa Babiloni, kasi akobika te; yango wana, tobima kati na yango mpe tokende, moto na moto na engumba na ye; pamba te esambiselo na ye ekomi kino na Lola, emati likolo lokola mapata. ›
10 The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.
‹ Yawe apesi biso etumbu! Boya totatola na Siona makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, asali. ›
11 Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.
Bopelisa basonge ya makonga, bokamata banguba na bino; pamba te Yawe atindi bakonzi ya Medi mpo ete mokano na Ye ezali ya kobebisa Babiloni. Yawe akozongisa mabe na mabe, akosala yango mpo na Tempelo na Ye.
12 Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
Botelemisa bendele na bino liboso ya bamir ya Babiloni! Bobakisa motango ya bakengeli mpe ya basinzili, botia mitambo! Yawe akokokisa mabongisi na Ye mpe ekateli ya etumbu na Ye mpo na bato ya Babiloni.
13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thy end is come for thy entire destruction.
Yo oyo ovandaka pembeni ya bibale minene, yo oyo otonda na bomengo mingi, suka na yo ebelemi, tango na yo ya kobebisama ekoki!
14 The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying: I will fill thee with men as with locusts, and they shall lift up a joyful shout against thee.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alapi ndayi na Kombo na Ye moko: Solo, nakotondisa yo na bato lokola liboke ya mabanki, bongo bakobeta milolo ya elonga likolo na yo.
15 He that made the earth by his power, that hath prepared the world by his wisdom, and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
Asala mabele na nguya na Ye, alendisa mokili na bwanya na Ye mpe atanda likolo na mayele na Ye.
16 When he uttereth his voice the waters are multiplied in heaven: he lifteth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, he hath turned lightning into rain: and hath brought forth the wind out of his treasures.
Tango agangaka, mayi etiaka makelele makasi kuna na likolo, asangisaka mapata wuta na basuka ya mokili, apelisaka mikalikali, anokisaka mvula mpe abimisaka mopepe wuta na bibombelo na Ye.
17 Every man is become foolish by his knowledge: every founder is confounded by his idol, for what he hath cast is a lie, and there is no breath in them.
Bato nyonso bakomaka lokola bazoba, lokola bato oyo basili mayele; monyangwisi bibende na moto atikalaka na soni likolo na bikeko na ye, pamba te bikeko na ye ezalaka na yango biloko ya lokuta, ezalaka na pema te kati na yango.
18 They are vain works, and worthy to be laughed at, in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Ezali biloko ya pamba, biloko ya kotiola; ekolimwa na tango ya kosambisama.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he that made all things he it is, and Israel is the sceptre of his inheritance: the Lord of hosts is his name.
Ye oyo azali libula ya Jakobi akokani na bikeko wana te, pamba te azali Mokeli ya biloko nyonso, ezala ata ekolo oyo ezali libula na Ye; Kombo na Ye ezali Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
20 Thou dashest together for me the weapons of war, and with thee I will dash nations together, and with thee I will destroy kingdoms:
Ozalaki solo marto, ebundeli na Ngai ya bitumba: elongo na yo, napanzaki bikolo; elongo na yo, nabebisaki mikili;
21 And with thee I will break in pieces the horse, and his rider, and with thee I will break in pieces the chariot, and him that getteth up into it:
elongo na yo, napanzaki mpunda mpe motambolisi na yango; elongo na yo, napanzaki shar mpe motambolisi na yango;
22 And with thee I will break in pieces man and woman, and with thee I will break in pieces the old man and the child, and with thee I will break in pieces the young man and the virgin:
elongo na yo, napanzaki mwasi mpe mobali; elongo na yo, napanzaki mibange mpe bilenge; elongo na yo, napanzaki bilenge mibali mpe bilenge basi;
23 And with thee I will break in pieces the shepherd and his dock, and with thee I will break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen, and with thee I will break in pieces captains and rulers.
elongo na yo, napanzaki babateli bibwele mpe bibwele na bango; elongo na yo, napanzaki mosali bilanga mpe bangombe na ye; elongo na yo, napanzaki bayangeli mpe bakalaka.
24 And I will render to Babylon, and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil, that they have done in Sion, before your eyes, saith the Lord.
Nakozongisela Babiloni mpe bavandi na yango nyonso mabe nyonso oyo basalaki Siona, » elobi Yawe.
25 Behold I come against thee, thou destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which corruptest the whole earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
« Yo ngomba oyo obebisaka, yo oyo obebisaka mokili, nakotelemela yo, » elobi Yawe, « nakosembola loboko na Ngai mpo na kotelemela yo, nakokitisa yo wuta na likolo ya mabanga, mpe nakokomisa yo ngomba ezika na moto.
26 And they shall not take of thee a stone for the corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shalt be destroyed for ever, saith the Lord.
Bakotikala lisusu te kozwa epai na yo libanga oyo batongelaka basonge ya bamir to libanga oyo batongelaka miboko; pamba te okobebisama mpo na libela, » elobi Yawe.
27 Set ye up a standard in the land: sound with the trumpet among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call together against her the kings of Ararat, Menni, and Ascenez: number Taphsar against her, bring the horse as the stinging locust.
« Botelemisa bendele kati na mokili! Bobeta kelelo kati na bikolo! Bobongisa bikolo mpo na kobundisa Babiloni, bobenga bakonzi ya basoda ya mikili ya Ararati, ya Mini mpe ya Ashikenazi mpo ete babundisa yango. Bopona mokonzi moko ya basoda mpo ete atambolisa bitumba, botinda bampunda lokola liboke ya mabanki.
28 Prepare the nations against her, the kings of Media, their captains, and all their rulers, and all the land of their dominion.
Bobongisa bikolo mpo na kobundisa yango: bakonzi ya Medi, bayangeli na bango mpe bakalaka na bango nyonso mpe bamboka nyonso oyo bazali kokamba.
29 And the land shall be in a commotion, and shall be troubled: for the design of the Lord against Babylon shall awake, to make the land of Babylon desert and uninhabitable.
Mikili ezali koningana mpe kotepatepa, pamba te mikano ya Yawe mpo na Babiloni ezali kokokisama mpo na kobebisa yango mpo ete, ata moto moko te atikala kovanda lisusu kuna.
30 The valiant men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have dwelt in holds: their strength hath failed, and they are become as women: her dwelling places are burnt, her bars are broken.
Basoda ya Babiloni batiki kobunda, babombami kati na bandako batonga makasi. Makasi na bango esili, bakomi lokola basi. Bandako ya Babiloni etumbami mpe babuki bikangelo bikuke na yango.
31 One running post shall meet another, and messenger shall meet messenger: to tell the king of Babylon that his city is taken from one end to the other:
Bato oyo bamemaka mikanda bazali kolandana mbangu, mpe bamemi sango bazali kolandana mbangu mpo na koyebisa mokonzi ya Babiloni ete babotoli engumba mobimba,
32 And that the fords are taken, and the marshes are burnt with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
bakangi bapon mpe bibale; banzete oyo ebotaka na mayi esili na kozika moto mpe basoda bakomi na somo. »
33 For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a thrashingfloor, this is the time of her thrashing: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Elenge mwasi Babiloni azali lokola etando ya ble na tango banyataka-nyataka yango; mpe etikali moke, tango ya kokata ble ekokoka mpo na yango.
34 Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath eaten me up, he hath devoured me: he hath made me as an empty vessel: he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicate meats, and he hath cast me out.
Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, abomaki biso; solo, atiaki biso na mobulu, akomisaki biso lokola mbeki ya pamba; amelaki biso ndenge nguma emelaka nyama, atondisaki libumu na ye na biloko na biso ya kitoko; mpe sima, asanzaki biso.
35 The wrong done to me, and my flesh be upon Babylon, saith the habitation of Sion: and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, saith Jerusalem.
Tika ete mabe oyo basali biso mpe bana na biso ekweyela Babiloni, » elobi bavandi ya Siona! « Tika ete makila na biso etangama na mito ya bavandi ya Babiloni, elobi bavandi ya Yelusalemi! »
36 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will judge thy cause, and will take vengeance for thee, and I will make her sea desolate, and will dry up her spring.
Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Tala, nakozwa likambo na yo na maboko mpe nakozongisa mabe na bato oyo basalaki yo mabe, nakokawusa ebale na yango ya monene mpe nakokawusa maziba na yango.
37 And Babylon shall be reduced to heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment and a hissing, because there is no inhabitant.
Mokili ya Babiloni ekokoma liboke ya mabanga, ndako ya mbwa ya zamba, eloko ya somo mpe ya kotiola; bongo, bato bakovanda lisusu kuna te.
38 They shall roar together like lions, they shall shake their manes like young lions.
Bato na yango nyonso bakokoma koganga lokola nkosi ya mike mpe kolela lokola bana ya nkosi.
39 In their heat I will set them drink: and I will make them drunk, that they may slumber, and sleep an everlasting sleep, and awake no more, saith the Lord.
Kasi tango bakokoma na posa makasi ya kosangisa nzoto, nakobongisela bango feti mpe nakolangwisa bango masanga mpo ete batondisama na esengo; bongo, bakolala pongi ya libela mpe bakoka lisusu kolamuka te, » elobi Yawe,
40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, and like rams with kids.
« nakomema bango ndenge bamemaka bampate to bameme ya mibali to mpe bantaba ya mibali na esika oyo babomelaka bibwele.
41 How is Sesach taken, and the renowned one of all the earth surprised? How is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations?
Ndenge nini bakangi Sheshaki! Ndenge nini basukisi lolendo ya ekolo oyo ezalaki kosala lokumu ya mokili mobimba! Ndenge nini penza Babiloni ekomi penza eloko ya somo kati na bikolo!
42 The sea is come up over Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
Ebale monene ekozindisa Babiloni, makelele ya bambonge na yango ekozipa mokili ya Babiloni.
43 Her cities are become an astonishment, a land uninhabited and desolate, a land wherein none can dwell, nor son of man pass through it.
Bingumba na yango ekobebisama, ekokoma lokola mokili oyo ekawuka to lokola esobe, mokili oyo bato bavandaka te, mokili epai wapi bato bayaka na mibembo te.
44 And I will visit against Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he had swallowed down: and the rations shall no more flow together to him, for the wall also of Babylon shall fall.
Nakopesa Beli etumbu kati na Babiloni, nakobimisa ye eloko oyo ameli na monoko; ekolo moko te ekoya lisusu epai na ye mpe bamir ya Babiloni ekokweya.
45 Go out of the midst of her, my people: that every man may save his life from the fierce wrath of the Lord.
Oh bato na Ngai, bobima na Babiloni! Bobikisa bomoi na bino liboso ya kanda makasi ya Yawe!
46 And lest your hearts faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land: and a rumour shall come in one year, and after this year another rumour: and iniquity in the land, and ruler upon ruler.
Bobanga te mpe bolemba nzoto te tango bokoyoka basango ya mabe kati na mokili: mobu oyo, sango ya mabe; mobu oyo elandi, sango mosusu ya mabe; kaka sango ya mobulu kati na mokili to sango ya mokonzi moko abundisi mokonzi mosusu.
47 Therefore behold the days come, and I will visit the idols of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
Pamba te tango ekoya solo, tango oyo nakopesa etumbu na banzambe ya Babiloni; mpe mokili na yango nyonso ekozala na soni, mpe bato na yango nyonso oyo bazokisa makasi na mopanga bakokufa kuna.
48 And the heavens and the earth, and all things that are in them shall give praise for Babylon: for spoilers shall come to her from the north, saith the Lord.
Bongo likolo, mabele mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango ekoganga na esengo mpo na komona kobebisama ya Babiloni, pamba te babebisi bakobimela na nor mpo na kobundisa yango, » elobi Yawe.
49 And as Babylon caused that there should fall slain in Israel: so of Babylon there shall fall slain in all the earth.
« Babiloni mpe esengeli kokweya, mpo na bana ya Isalaele oyo bakufaki, ndenge kaka bato ya mokili mobimba bakufaki mpo na Babiloni.
50 You that have escaped the sword, come away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
Bino bato oyo bobiki na mopanga, bokima, bolekisa tango te! Wuta na mokili ya mosika, bokanisa Yawe mpe Yelusalemi!
51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: because strangers are come upon the sanctuaries of the house of the Lord.
Tosambwe, pamba te totiolami; mpe bilongi na biso ezipami na soni mpo ete bapaya bakoti kino na bisika ya bule ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
52 Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will visit her graven things, and in all her land the wounded shall groan:
Kasi na mikolo ekoya, » elobi Yawe, « nakopesa etumbu na banzambe ya Babiloni, mpe mokili mobimba ekotonda na makelele ya bato oyo bazoka bapota ya somo.
53 If Babylon should mount up to heaven, and establish her strength on high: from me there should come spoilers upon her, saith the Lord.
Ata soki mokili ya Babiloni emati kino na Lola mpe elendisi bandako na yango oyo batonga makasi, nakotindela yango bato mpo na kokweyisa yango, » elobi Yawe.
54 The noise of a cry from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:
« Makelele ya koganga ekoyokana, wuta na mokili ya Babiloni, lokito makasi ya kobebisama ya mokili ya bato ya Babiloni.
55 Because the Lord hath laid Babylon waste, and destroyed out of her the great voice: and their wave shall roar like many waters: their voice hath made a noise:
Pamba te Yawe akobebisa Babiloni mpe akokanga yango monoko. Lokito ya banguna ekoyokana lokola makelele ya bambonge ya bibale minene; bongo mingongo ya bato ekoyokana makasi.
56 Because the spoiler is come upon her, that is, upon Babylon, and her valiant men are taken, and their bow is weakened, because the Lord, who is a strong revenger, will surely repay.
Mobebisi akoya kobundisa Babiloni; bongo bakokanga basoda na yango ya mpiko mpe bakobuka matolotolo na bango, pamba te Yawe azali Nzambe oyo afutaka: afutaka kolanda misala ya moto na moto.
57 And I will make her princes drunk. and her wise men, and her captains, and her rulers, and her valiant men: and they shall sleep an everlasting sleep, and shall awake no more, saith the whose name is Lord of hosts.
Nakolangwisa masanga: bakalaka mpe bato na yango ya bwanya, bayangeli, bakonzi ya basoda mpe basoda na yango ya mpiko. Bakolala pongi ya libela mpe bakolamuka lisusu te, » elobi Mokonzi oyo Kombo na Ye ezali: Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
58 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: That broad wall of Babylon shall be utterly broken down, and her high gates shall be burnt with fire, and the labours of the people shall come to nothing, and of the nations shall go to the fire, and shall perish.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Bamir nyonso ya milayi ya Babiloni ekokweyisama mpe bikuke na yango nyonso ya minene ekozikisama na moto; bato bazali kosala bobele mosala ya pamba mpe bato ya bikolo mosusu bazali komimonisa pasi mpo na mosala oyo ekobeba na moto. »
59 The word that Jeremias the prophet commanded Saraias the son of Nerias, the son of Maasias, when he went with king Sedecias to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign: now Saraias was chief over the prophecy.
Tala sango oyo mosakoli Jeremi apesaki epai ya Seraya, mwana mobali ya Neriya, mwana mobali ya Maaseya, tango akendeki na Babiloni elongo na Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi na ye. Seraya azalaki mokonzi ya molako.
60 And Jeremias wrote in one book all the evil that was to come upon Babylon: all these words that are written against Babylon.
Jeremi akomaki kati na buku pasi nyonso oyo esengelaki kokomela Babiloni. Makambo wana nyonso ekomamaki na tina na mokili ya Babiloni.
61 And Jeremias said to Saraias: When thou shalt come into Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words,
Jeremi alobaki na Seraya: « Tango okokoma kati na Babiloni, sala ete otanga makambo oyo nyonso na mongongo makasi.
62 Thou shalt say: O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place to destroy it: so that there should be neither man nor beast to dwell therein, and that it should be desolate for ever.
Bongo okoloba: ‹ Oh Yawe, Yo moko nde olobaki ete okobebisa esika oyo mpo ete bato mpe bibwele bavanda lisusu awa te, kasi etikala pamba mpo na libela. ›
63 And when thou shalt have made an end of reading this book, thou shalt tie a stone to it, and shalt throw it into the midst of the Euphrates:
Tango okosilisa kotanga buku yango, kangisa yango na libanga, bwaka yango na ebale Efrate mpe loba:
64 And thou shalt say: Thus shall Babylon sink, and she shall not rise up from the affliction that I will bring upon her, and she shall be utterly destroyed. Thus far are the words of Jeremias.
‹ Ezali boye nde Babiloni ekozinda mpe ekomata lisusu te, likolo ya pasi oyo nakotindela yango. Mpe bato na yango bakokweya. › » Maloba ya Jeremi esuki awa.
