Micah 1
1 Here is the message that the Lord gave to Micah of Moresheth at the time when Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah. This is what he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
Yawe alobaki na Mishe, moto ya mboka Moresheti, na tango Yotami, Akazi mpe Ezekiasi bazalaki, moko sima na mosusu, bakonzi ya Yuda: ezalaki emoniseli oyo Mishe azwaki na tina na Samari mpe Yelusalemi.
2 Listen, all the nations! Pay attention, everyone on earth! The Lord God testifies against you from the Lord's holy Temple.
Bino nyonso, bikolo, boyoka! Mabele elongo na nyonso oyo ezali kati na yo, botia matoyi mpe boyoka! Nkolo Yawe azwi bino na likambo; Yawe akosambisa bino wuta na Ndako na Ye ya bule!
3 Look! The Lord is coming, leaving his place and coming down, and is walking on the high places of the earth.
Tala, Yawe azali koya wuta na Ndako na Ye, azali kokita, azali kotambola na likolo ya bangomba ya mabele.
4 The mountains melt beneath him, the valleys burst apart, like wax in front of a fire, like water rushing down a slope. All this is happening because of the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob, the sins of the people of Israel.
Na se ya matambe na Ye, bangomba ezali kopasuka, mabwaku ezali kopanzana ndenge mafuta eyandukaka na moto, ndenge mayi ya mvula etiolaka na lombangu na mipanzi ya bangomba.
5 What is the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob? Isn't it what is happening in Samaria? Where are the idolatrous high places of Judah? Aren't they right in Jerusalem?
Mpo na nini nyonso wana? Ezali mpo na mabe ya Jakobi, mpo na masumu ya libota ya Isalaele. Nani atindikaki Jakobi na kosala mabe? Boni, ezali Samari te? Nani asalaki ete bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba ezala kati na Yuda? Boni, ezali Yelusalemi te?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a pile of rubble in a field, a place for planting vineyards. I will roll its stones down into the valley; I will lay bare its foundations.
« Nakokomisa Samari mopiku ya mabanga; bakokoma kosala bilanga ya vino kuna. Nakobwaka mabanga na yango na lubwaku, nakosala ete miboko na yango etikala polele.
7 All their carved idols will be smashed to pieces. All that was earned by their temple prostitutes will be burned. All of their idols will be destroyed, for what she collected through the earnings of temple prostitutes will be taken away and used to pay other temple prostitutes.
Banzambe na bango nyonso ya bikeko ekopanzana, makabo nyonso ya mbindo oyo bapesaka epai ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko ekobwakama na moto. Nakobebisa banzambe nyonso ya bikeko ya Samari mpo ete esalemaki na lifuti ya mbindo ya ekobo ya bule, mpe mpo ete basalela yango lisusu te lokola lifuti ya ekobo mosusu ya bule. »
8 Because of this I will weep and wail, I will walk barefoot and naked, and will howl like jackals and mourn like owls.
Yango wana, nakolela mpe nakosala matanga, nakotambola makolo ngulu mpe bolumbu, nakoganga lokola mbwa ya zamba mpe nakolela lokola maligbanga.
9 Their wound cannot be healed, it has extended to Judah, and reached right to the gates of Jerusalem.
Pamba te bokono ya Samari esilaka te; pota na yango ezwi mpe mokili ya Yuda, ezali kopusana kino na ekuke ya bato na ngai, kino kutu na yango moko Yelusalemi.
10 Don't mention it in Gath; don't weep at all. People of Beth-le-aphrah, roll in the dust.
Boloba yango te kati na engumba Gati, bolela te! Bato ya Beti-Leafra, bomipakola putulu!
11 Leave, people of Shaphir, naked and ashamed. People of Zanaan don't come out. People of Beth Ezel mourn, for you have lost your support.
Bato ya engumba Shafiri, botambola bolumbu mpe boyoka soni! Bato ya mboka Tsanani bakobima lisusu na engumba na bango te, bato ya Beti-Atseli bazali na matanga; boye balongoli lisungi na bango epai na yo.
12 The people of Maroth wait anxiously for relief, but disaster has come down from the Lord on the gate of Jerusalem.
Bato ya etuka ya Meroti bazali kolenga na somo mpo na bolamu na bango, pamba te Yawe atindi pasi ya makasi kino na ekuke ya Yelusalemi.
13 Harness the team of horses to the chariot, you people of Lachish, because the sins of the people of Jerusalem began with you, for the sins of Israel were first found in you.
Bino bavandi ya engumba Lakishi, bokangisa bampunda mpe bashar na bino! Bino nde bomemisaki Siona, mboka kitoko, masumu; pamba te bamonaki masumu ya Isalaele kati na bino!
14 Send your goodbye gifts to Moresheth. The town of Achzib is a deception to the kings of Israel.
Yango wana, bokopesa na Moresheti mokanda oyo elakisi ete bokabwani na ye na libala. Engumba Akizibi ezali kokosa bakonzi ya Isalaele.
15 I will bring a conqueror to attack you, people of Moresheth. The leaders of Israel will go to Adullam.
Bino bavandi ya Maresha, nakotindela bino monguna moko mpo ete aya kobundisa bino; lokumu ya Isalaele ekokima na engumba Adulami.
16 Shave your heads, for the children you love will be taken away; make yourselves as bald as a vulture, for they will be exiled far away from you.
Bomikokola suki na mito mpo na bana na bino ya mibali oyo bolingaka, ndenge esalemaka na matanga. Bomikokola suki na mito mpe botikala mabandi lokola mpongo, pamba te bakomema bango na bowumbu mosika na bino.
