< Zechariah 9 >

1 The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and of Damascus the rest thereof: for the eye of man, and of all the tribes of Israel is the Lord’s.
Liloba na Yawe. Liloba na Yawe ekomi na mokili ya Adraki, ekowumela na engumba Damasi, pamba te miso ya bato mpe ya mabota nyonso ya Isalaele ezali kotalela Yawe.
2 Emath also in the borders thereof, and Tyre, and Sidon: for they have taken to themselves to be exceeding wise.
Tala, ekowumela lisusu likolo ya engumba Amati, na mondelo oyo ekabola yango na engumba Damasi, na engumba Tiri mpe Sidoni, atako baleki mayele.
3 And Tyre hath built herself a strong hold, and heaped together silver as earth, and gold as the mire of the streets.
Engumba Tiri emitongeli yango moko ndako makasi, emibombeli palata ebele lokola putulu mpe wolo ebele lokola potopoto ya balabala.
4 Behold the Lord shall possess her, and shall strike her strength in the sea, and she shall be devoured with fire.
Kasi Nkolo akobotola yango, akosukisa nguya na yango na ebale monene mpe ekozika na moto.
5 Ascalon shall see, and shall fear, and Gaza, and shall be very sorrowful: and Accaron, because her hope is confounded: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ascalon shall not be inhabited.
Engumba Ashikeloni ekomona yango mpe ekokoma kolenga; engumba Gaza ekokoma na somo makasi, ndenge moko mpe engumba Ekroni; pamba te elikya na yango ekosila. Engumba Gaza ekozangela mokonzi na yango mpe engumba Asikaloni ekotikala lisusu na bato te.
6 And the divider shall sit in Azotus, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.
Bana makangu bakoya kovanda na engumba Asidodi, mpe nakosilisa lolendo ya bato ya Filisitia.
7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: and even he shall be left to our God, and he shall be as a governor in Juda, and Accaron as a Jebusite.
Nakolongola makila na minoko na bango, mpe bilei ya mbindo na minu na bango; kasi ba-oyo bakotikala bakokoma bato ya Nzambe na biso mpe bakambi ya Yuda; mpe bato ya engumba Ekroni bakokoma lokola bato ya Yebusi.
8 And I will encompass my house with them that serve me in war, going and returning, and the oppressor shall no more pass through them: for now I have seen with my eyes.
Nakobundela ndako na Ngai liboso ya mampinga ya basoda ya nguya; monyokoli moko te akoya lisusu komonisa bato na Ngai pasi, pamba te Ngai moko nde nazali kokengela sik’oyo.
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Sion, shout for joy, O daughter of Jerusalem: BEHOLD THY KING will come to thee, the just and saviour: he is poor, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Siona, mboka kitoko, sepela, sepela penza makasi! Yelusalemi, mboka kitoko, ganga penza na esengo! Tala, mokonzi na yo azali koya epai na yo, azali sembo mpe molongi, atonda na komikitisa, avandi na likolo ya ane, na likolo ya mwana ya ane, mwana ya ane ya mwasi.
10 And I will destroy the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the bow for war shall be broken: and he shall speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power shall be from sea to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth.
Nakolongola bashar ya bitumba na mokili ya Efrayimi, bampunda ya bitumba, na engumba Yelusalemi, mpe matolotolo ya bitumba ekobukana. Mokonzi yango akosakola kimia na bikolo nyonso, bokonzi na ye ekobanda longwa na ebale monene moko kino na mosusu, longwa na ebale kino na basuka ya mabele.
11 Thou also by the blood of thy testament hast sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit, wherein is no water.
Mpo na yo, likolo ya makila ya boyokani na Ngai elongo na yo, nakobimisa bakangami na yo na libulu oyo ezanga mayi.
12 Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope, I will render thee double at, I declare today.
Bozonga na ndako na bino, oyo batonga makasi, bino bakangami oyo botondi na elikya, pamba te nazali koloba na bino sik’oyo: « Nakozongisela bino mbala mibale biloko oyo bobungisaki. »
13 Because I have bent Juda for me as a bow, I have filled Ephraim: and I will raise up thy sons, O Sion, above thy sons, O Greece, and I will make thee as the sword of the mighty.
Pamba te nabendi tolotolo na Ngai, oyo ezali Yuda, natie yango likonga na Ngai ya moke oyo ezali Efrayimi. Siona, nakotelemisa bana na yo ya mibali mpo ete batelemela bana mibali ya Yavani mpe nakokomisa yo lokola mopanga ya elombe.
14 And the Lord God shall be seen over them, and his dart shall go forth as lightning: and the Lord God will sound the trumpet, and go in the whirlwind of the south.
Yawe akomimonisa epai na bango, mpe tolotolo na Ye ekobima lokola mokalikali. Nkolo Yawe akobeta kelelo mpe akotambola kati na mopepe makasi.
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them: and they shall devour, and subdue with the stones of the sling: and drinking they shall be inebriated as it were with wine, and they shall be filled as bowls, and as the horns of the altar.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, akobatela bango. Bakolia mpe bakobuka mabanga ya ebambelo mabanga, bakomela mpe bakosala makelele lokola bato balangwe masanga, bakotonda lokola kopo ya makila oyo basopaka na basonge ya etumbelo.
16 And the Lord their God will save them in that day, as the dock of his people: for holy stones shall be lifted up over his land.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe, Nzambe na bango, akobikisa bango ndenge mobateli bibwele abikisaka bameme na ye. Bakongenga makasi kati na mabele na Ye lokola mabanga ya talo.
17 For what is the good thing of him, and what is his beautiful thing, but the corn of the elect, and wine springing forth virgins?
Bakozala bato ya esengo, bakokoma kitoko makasi. Ble ekopesa bilenge mibali makasi mpe vino ya sika ekopesa bilenge basi makasi.
