Ezekiel 14
1 Then came certaine of the Elders of Israel vnto me, and sate before me.
Kati na bakambi ya Isalaele, ndambo bayaki epai na ngai mpe bavandaki liboso na ngai.
2 And the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai:
3 Sonne of man, these men haue set vp their idoles in their heart, and put the stumbling blocke of their iniquitie before their face: should I, being required, answere them?
« Mwana na moto, bato oyo bazali kotia mitema epai ya banzambe ya bikeko. Bongo lokola bazali kotia banzambe ya bikeko liboso na bango, ekobetisa bango mabaku oyo ekokweyisa bango na masumu. Boni, natikela bango lisusu nzela ya kotuna Ngai toli?
4 Therefore speake vnto them, and say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Euery man of the house of Israel that setteth vp his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling blocke of his iniquitie before his face, and commeth to the Prophet, I the Lord will answere him that commeth, according to the multitude of his idoles:
Mpo na yango, loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Soki moto ya Isalaele atie motema epai ya banzambe ya bikeko oyo ekobetisa ye mabaku mpe ekokweyisa ye na masumu, bongo atie yango liboso na ye mpe akei epai ya mosakoli, Ngai moko Yawe nde nakoyanola ye kolanda motango ya banzambe na ye ya bikeko.
5 That I may take the house of Israel in their owne heart, because they are all departed from me through their idoles.
Nakosala bongo mpo na kozongisa lisusu epai na Ngai, mitema ya bana ya Isalaele oyo batikaki Ngai mpo na kolanda banzambe ya bikeko. ›
6 Therfore say vnto the house of Israel, Thus sayth the Lord God, Returne, and withdraw your selues, and turne your faces from your idoles, and turne your faces from all your abominations.
Yango wana, loba na libota ya Isalaele: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Bobongola mitema! Bopesa banzambe na bino ya bikeko mikongo mpe botika misala na bino ya mbindo!
7 For euery one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that soiourneth in Israel, which departeth from mee, and setteth vp his idoles in his heart, and putteth the stumbling blocke of his iniquitie before his face, and commeth to a Prophet, for to inquire of him for me, I the Lord will answere him for my selfe,
Soki moto moko ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo avandi kati na Isalaele akabwani na Ngai, atie motema na ye na banzambe ya bikeko mpe atie liboso na ye banzambe yango ya bikeko oyo ekobetisa ye mabaku mpe ekokweyisa ye na masumu, bongo akei epai ya mosakoli mpo na kotuna Ngai toli na nzela na ye, Ngai moko Yawe nde nakoyanola ye.
8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him an example and prouerbe, and I will cut him off from the middes of my people, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord.
Nakotombokela moto wana, nakokomisa ye elembo mpe lisese epai na bato mpe nakolongola ye na molongo ya bato na Ngai. Na bongo, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai nazali Yawe.
9 And if the Prophet be deceiued, when hee hath spoken a thing, I the Lord haue deceiued that Prophet, and I will stretch out mine hande vpon him, and will destroy him from the middes of my people of Israel.
Soki mosakoli moko akosami mpe asakoli makambo, ezali Ngai moko Yawe nde napengwisi ye. Boye, nakosembola loboko na Ngai mpo na kopesa ye etumbu, mpe nakobeta ye kati na bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
10 And they shall beare their punishment: the punishment of the Prophet shall bee euen as the punishment of him that asketh,
Bango mibale, mosakoli yango mpe moto oyo akei kotuna ye toli, bakomema mikumba ya masumu na bango.
11 That the house of Israel may go no more astray from mee, neither bee polluted any more with all their transgressions, but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, sayth the Lord God.
Na bongo, bato ya Isalaele bakokabwana na Ngai lisusu te mpe bakomikomisa lisusu mbindo te na nzela ya masumu na bango; kasi bakozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai, nakozala Nzambe na bango, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
12 The worde of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
13 Sonne of man, when ye land sinneth against me by committing a trespasse, then will I stretch out mine hand vpon it, and will breake the staffe of the bread thereof, and will send famine vpon it, and I will destroy man and beast forth of it.
« Mwana na moto, soki bato ya ekolo moko basali masumu liboso na Ngai mpe batamboli na boyengebene te, bongo Ngai nasemboli loboko na Ngai mpo na kopimela bango bilei mpe kotindela bango nzala makasi mpo ete ezala bato to banyama bakufa,
14 Though these three men Noah, Daniel, and Iob were among them, they shoulde deliuer but their owne soules by their righteousnes, saith the Lord God.
ata soki bato misato oyo, ‹ Noa, Daniele mpe Yobo, › bazalaki kati na bavandi ya ekolo yango, bango misato kaka nde balingaki kobika mpo na bosembo na bango, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
15 If I bring noysome beastes into the lande and they spoyle it, so that it bee desolate, that no man may passe through, because of beastes,
To soki natindi banyama mabe kati na ekolo yango mpo ete eboma bavandi na yango, mpe mpo ete ekolo yango etikala lisusu na bato te mpe bato balekela lisusu wana te mpo na banyama mabe yango;
16 Though these three men were in the mids thereof, As I liue, sayth the Lord God, they shall saue neither sonnes nor daughters: they onely shalbe deliuered, but the land shall be waste.
na Kombo na Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe, ata soki bato oyo misato bazalaki kuna, balingaki kokoka te kobikisa bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi; bango misato kaka nde balingaki kobika, kasi ekolo elingaki kotikala lisusu na bato te.
17 Or if I bring a sworde vpon this land, and say, Sword, go through the land, so that I destroy man and beast out of it,
To soki natindi mopanga ete eboma bato ya ekolo wana mpe nalobi: ‹ Tika ete mopanga eleka na mokili mobimba! › Soki nabomi bato mpe bibwele na yango;
18 Though these three men were in the mids thereof, As I liue, sayth the Lord God, they shall deliuer neither sonnes nor daughters, but they onely shall be deliuered themselues.
na Kombo na Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe, ata soki bato oyo misato bazalaki kuna, balingaki kokoka te kobikisa bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi; bango misato kaka nde balingaki kobika.
19 Or if I send a pestilence into this land, and powre out my wrath vpon it in blood, to destroy out of it man and beast,
To soki natindi kati na mokili yango bokono oyo ebomaka mpe nasopeli yango kanda na Ngai mpo na kosopa makila, koboma bato mpe bibwele ya mokili yango;
20 And though Noah, Daniel and Iob were in the middes of it, As I liue, sayth the Lord God, they shall deliuer neither sonne nor daughter: they shall but deliuer their owne soules by their righteousnes.
na Kombo na Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe, ata soki Noa, Daniele mpe Yobo bazalaki kati na bavandi na yango, balingaki kokoka te kobikisa ata mwana moko ya mobali to ya mwasi; bango misato kaka nde balingaki kobika mpo na bosembo na bango.
21 For thus saith the Lord God, Howe much more when I sende my foure sore iudgements vpon Ierusalem, euen the sworde, and famine, and the noysome beast and pestilence, to destroy man and beast out of it?
Kasi tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Atako natindeli Yelusalemi bitumbu na Ngai oyo minei ya somo: mopanga, nzala makasi, banyama mabe mpe bokono oyo ebomaka, mpo na kosilisa koboma bato mpe bibwele na yango,
22 Yet beholde, therein shalbe left a remnant of them that shalbe caryed away both sonnes and daughters: behold, they shall come forth vnto you, and ye shall see their way, and their enterprises: and ye shall be comforted, concerning the euill that I haue brought vpon Ierusalem, euen concerning al that I haue brought vpon it.
ekozala na ndambo ya bato oyo bakobika: bana mibali mpe ya basi. Bakoya epai na bino; mpe tango bokomona bizaleli mpe misala na bango, bokobondisama mpo na pasi oyo natindelaki Yelusalemi, mpo na bitumbu nyonso oyo natindelaki yango.
23 And they shall comfort you, when yee see their way and their enterprises: and ye shall know, that I haue not done without cause all that I haue done in it, saith the Lord God.
Solo, bokobondisama tango bokomona bizaleli mpe misala na bango; pamba te bokososola ete ezali na pamba te nde nasalaki makambo oyo nyonso kati na Yelusalemi, elobi Nkolo Yawe. »
