Jeremiah 27
1 This message came to Jeremiah from the Lord at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, son of Josiah, king of Judah.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na Jeremi, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda:
2 This is what the Lord told me: Make for yourself a harness and a yoke and strap it on your neck
Tala liloba oyo Ngai Yawe nalobi: « Sala ekangiseli na basinga mpe banzete mpe kanga yango na kingo na yo.
3 Send a message to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon through the ambassadors who have come to Jerusalem to see Zedekiah king of Judah.
Bongo tinda maloba epai ya bakonzi ya Edomi, ya Moabi, ya Amoni, ya Tiri mpe ya Sidoni na nzela ya batindami oyo bayei na Yelusalemi mpo na kokutana na Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda.
4 Give them this order from the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, to convey to their masters:
Pesa bango sango oyo bakomemela bakonzi na bango mpe yebisa bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‘Boyebisa bakonzi na bino maloba oyo:
5 It was by my strength and creative power that I made the earth and the human beings and animals that live there, and I give it to those who are right in my sight.
Ngai nde nasalaki mabele, nasalaki bato mpe banyama nyonso oyo bazali kati na yango, na nguya monene na Ngai mpe na loboko na Ngai oyo esembolama. Napesaka mabele yango epai ya moto nyonso oyo Ngai nalingi.
6 Now I have placed my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in charge of all these countries. I have even given him control over the wild animals.
Sik’oyo, Ngai, nakabi mikili oyo nyonso na maboko ya mosali na Ngai, Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni; nakabi mpe na maboko na ye ata banyama ya zamba mpo ete etosa ye.
7 All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time that his own land comes under the control of other nations and powerful kings.
Bikolo nyonso ekotosa ye, mwana na ye ya mobali mpe koko na ye, kino tango ya mokili na ye mpe ekokoka; bongo bikolo ebele mpe bakonzi ya nguya bakokonza ye.
8 Any nation or kingdom that doesn't serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and doesn't submit to him I will punish that nation by war and famine and plague, declares the Lord, until I let Nebuchadnezzar destroy it completely.
Soki ekolo moko to mokili moko eboyi kosalela Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, to eboyi komema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, nakopesa ekolo yango etumbu na nzela mopanga, ya nzala makasi mpe ya bokono oyo ebomaka, elobi Yawe, kino nakobebisa yango na nzela ya loboko na ye.
9 Don't you listen to your prophets, your fortune-tellers, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums, or your magicians when they tell you, “You won't serve the king of Babylon.”
Boye, boyokela te basakoli na bino, bato na bino ya soloka, bato na bino oyo balimbolaka bandoto, bato na bino oyo basololaka na bakufi, oyo bazali koloba na bino ete bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni te.
10 They're prophesying a lie to you that will lead to your removal from your country. I will expel you and you will die.
Bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta, kaka mpo na komema bino mosika ya mokili na bino. Ngai nakobengana bino solo mpe bokokufa.
11 But a nation that submits to the king of Babylon and serves him, I will leave in its own land, to cultivate it and live in it, declares the Lord.
Kasi soki ekolo moko endimi komema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe endimi kosalela ye, nakotika ekolo yango na kimia kati na mokili na bango mpo ete basala bilanga mpe bawumela kuna, elobi Yawe.’ › »
12 I gave the same message to Zedekiah king of Judah: Submit to the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!
Bongo napesaki sango kaka wana epai ya Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda: « Bomema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bosalela ye elongo na bato na ye, bongo bokobika!
13 Why should you and your people die by war and famine and plague, as the Lord has said he would bring against any nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
Mpo na nini bino elongo na bato na bino bokufa na mopanga, na nzala makasi mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka ndenge Yawe akataki mpo na ekolo nyonso oyo ekoboya kosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni?
14 Don't listen to messages from prophets who say, “You won't serve the king of Babylon,” for they are prophesying a lie to you.
Boyoka te maloba ya basakoli oyo bazali koloba na bino: ‹ Bokosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni te! › Bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta.
15 I didn't send them, declares the Lord, and yet they are giving false prophecies in my name. So I will expel you and you will die—you and the prophets who prophesy to you.
Natindaki bango te, » elobi Yawe, « bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta na Kombo na Ngai. Nakobengana bino mpe bokokufa, bino mpe basakoli oyo bazali kosakola epai na bino. »
16 Then I told the priests and all the people, This is what the Lord says: Don't listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, “Look! The objects from the Lord's Temple will shortly be returned from Babylon.” They are prophesying a lie to you.
Bongo nalobaki na Banganga-Nzambe mpe na bato nyonso: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi: Boyoka te basakoli na bino, oyo bazali koloba: ‹ Tala, bisalelo ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekozonga noki wuta na Babiloni. › Bazali koloba na bino makambo ya lokuta!
17 Don't listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city be destroyed?
Boyoka bango te! Bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni, bongo bokobika! Mpo na nini engumba oyo ebebisama?
18 If they are truly prophets and really have the word of the Lord with them, they should be pleading now with the Lord Almighty that what's left in the Lord's Temple, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, isn't taken to Babylon.
Soki bazali solo basakoli mpe Liloba na Yawe ezali kati na bango, tika ete basambela Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpo ete bisalelo oyo etikalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda mpe kati na Yelusalemi ekende na Babiloni te.
19 This what the Lord Almighty says about the pillars, the bronze sea, the bases, and the rest of the objects that are left in Jerusalem:
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi na tina na makonzi, nzungu ya monene ya bronze, bivandelo na yango mpe bisalelo mosusu oyo etikalaki kati na engumba wana,
20 everything Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon didn't take when he took Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, together with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
bisalelo oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atikaki tango amemaki Yekonia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na bowumbu longwa na Yelusalemi kino na Babiloni, elongo na bankumu nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi;
21 Again, this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says about the objects left in the Lord's Temple, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na biloko oyo etikalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda mpe kati na Yelusalemi:
22 They will be taken away to Babylon and will stay there until the time I see to them again, declares the Lord. Only then will I bring them back so they will be in Jerusalem again.
‹ Bakomema yango na Babiloni, mpe ekotikala kuna kino na mokolo oyo nakolandela yango, › elobi Yawe, ‹ nakolongola yango mpe nakozongisa yango na esika oyo, elobi Yawe. › »
