Jeremiah 16
1 The worde of the Lord came also vnto mee, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
2 Thou shalt not take thee a wife, nor haue sonnes nor daughters in this place.
« Okobala te mpe okotikala kobota bana mibali to bana basi na esika oyo te. »
3 For thus sayeth the Lord concerning the sonnes, and concerning the daughters that are borne in this place, and concerning their mothers that beare them, and concerning their fathers, that beget them in this land,
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na tina na bana mibali mpe bana basi oyo bakobotama na mboka oyo, mpe na tina na basi oyo bazali bamama na bango mpe mibali oyo bazali batata na bango:
4 They shall die of deathes and diseases: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried, but they shalbe as dung vpon the earth, and they shalbe consumed by the sword, and by famine, and their carkeises shall be meate for the foules of the heauen, and for the beasts of the earth.
« Bakokufa na kufa ya somo, bakolela bango te mpe bakokunda bango te, kasi bakozala lokola matiti ya kopola na mabele. Bakokufa na mopanga mpe na nzala makasi, bongo bibembe na bango ekokoma bilei ya bandeke ya likolo mpe ya banyama ya zamba. »
5 For thus saith the Lord, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither goe to lament, nor be moued for the: for I haue taken my peace, from this people, saith the Lord, euen mercy and compassion.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Kokota na ndako oyo ezali na matanga te, kokende na matanga te mpe koyokela bato oyo bazali na matanga mawa te, pamba te nalongoli kimia na Ngai, bolingo na Ngai mpe mawa na Ngai epai ya bato oyo, » elobi Yawe,
6 Both the great, and the small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them nor cut themselues, nor make themselues balde for them.
« ezala mikolo to bana mike, bango nyonso bakosila kokufa kati na mokili oyo. Bakokunda bango te mpe bakosalela bango matanga te, bongo moto moko te akomikata banzoloko to kokokola suki ya moto mpo na bango.
7 They shall not stretch out the hands for the in the mourning to comfort them for the dead, neither shall they giue them the cup of consolation to drinke for their father or for their mother.
Moto moko te akopesa bilei mpo na kobondisa bato oyo bazali na matanga sima na kufa, mpe moto moko te akopesa bango masanga mpo na kobondisa bango, ezala ata mpo na kufa ya batata to ya bamama na bango.
8 Thou shalt not also goe into the house of feasting to sit with them to eate and to drinke.
Mpe kokota te na ndako oyo bazali kosala feti mpo na kovanda mpe komela,
9 For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Beholde, I wil cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, euen in your dayes the voyce of myrth, and the voyce of gladnes, the voyce of the bridegrome and the voyce of the bride.
pamba te tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Nakosilisa kati na esika oyo, na miso na bino mpe na tango na bino, makelele ya esengo mpe makelele ya kosepela, mingongo ya babalani mpe ya babandami na libala.
10 And when thou shalt shewe this people all these wordes, and they shall say vnto thee, Wherefore hath the Lord pronounced all this great plague against vs? or what is our iniquitie? and what is our sinne that we haue committed against the Lord our God?
Tango okotatola maloba oyo nyonso na bato oyo, soki batuni yo: ‹ Mpo na nini Yawe akateli biso etumbu ya pasi makasi boye? Mabe nini tosalaki Ye? Masumu nini tosalaki liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na biso? ›
11 Then shalt thou say vnto them, Because your fathers haue forsaken me, sayth the Lord, and haue walked after other gods, and haue serued them, and worshipped them, and haue forsaken me, and haue not kept my Law,
Okoloba na bango: ‹ Ezali mpo ete batata na bino basundolaki Ngai, › elobi Yawe, ‹ basalaki banzambe ya bapaya, basalelaki yango mpe bafukamelaki yango. Batikaki Ngai mpe babatelaki Mobeko na Ngai te.
12 (And ye haue done worse then your fathers: for beholde, you walke euery one after the stubbernesse of his wicked heart, and will not heare me)
Bongo bino, bozali mpe kotambola na ezaleli mabe koleka ata ezaleli mabe ya batata na bino. Botala ndenge nini moko na moko kati na bino azali kolanda makanisi mabe ya motema na ye, na esika ya kotosa Ngai.
13 Therefore will I driue you out of this land into a lande that ye knowe not, neither you, nor your fathers, and there shall ye serue other gods day and night: for I will shew you no grace.
Yango wana, nakobwaka bino libanda ya mokili oyo mpe nakomema bino na mokili oyo, ezala bino to batata na bino, botikala koyeba te; mpe kuna, bokosalela banzambe ya bapaya, butu mpe moyi; pamba te nakoyokela bino mawa te. ›
14 Behold therfore, saith the Lord, the dayes come that it shall no more be sayde, The Lord liueth, which brought vp the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt,
Yango wana, na mikolo oyo ezali koya, » elobi Yawe, « bato bakotika koloba: ‹ Na Kombo na Yawe oyo abimisaki bana ya Isalaele na Ejipito; ›
15 But the Lord liueth, that brought vp the children of Israel from the lande of the North, and from all the landes where hee had scattered them, and I wil bring them againe into their land that I gaue vnto their fathers.
kasi bakokoma koloba: ‹ Na Kombo na Yawe oyo abimisaki bana ya Isalaele na mokili ya nor mpe na mikili nyonso epai wapi abenganaki bango. › Nakozongisa bango na mokili na bango, mokili oyo napesaki bakoko na bango.
16 Behold, sayth the Lord, I wil send out many fishers, and they shall fish them, and after, will I send out many hunters, and they shall hunt them from euery mountaine and from euery hill, and out of the caues of the rockes.
Solo, nakotinda balobi mbisi ebele, » elobi Yawe, « mpe bakoboma mbisi ebele; bato ya bokila ebele mpe bakoboma banyama ebele na likolo ya bangomba nyonso ya milayi mpe ya mikuse kino kati na madusu ya mabanga.
17 For mine eyes are vpon al their wayes: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquitie hid from mine eyes.
Nazali kotala malamu banzela na bango nyonso; moto moko te akoki kobombama na miso na Ngai, mpe masumu na bango ekoki ata moke te kobombama na miso na Ngai.
18 And first I will recompense their iniquitie and their sinne double, because they haue defiled my lande, and haue filled mine inheritance with their filthie carions and their abominations.
Nakofutisa bango mbala mibale lifuti ya mabe na bango mpe ya masumu na bango, pamba te bakomisi mokili na Ngai mbindo na nzela ya bililingi mpe ya bikeko na bango oyo ezanga bomoi, mpe batondisi libula na Ngai na banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe ya nkele. »
19 O Lord, thou art my force, and my strength and my refuge in the day of affliction: the Gentiles shall come vnto thee from the ends of the world, and shall say, Surely our fathers haue inherited lies, and vanitie, wherein was no profite.
Oh Yawe, Makasi na ngai mpe Ndako na ngai batonga makasi, Ekimelo na ngai na tango ya pasi, bato ya bikolo nyonso bakoya epai na Yo wuta na basuka ya mokili mpe bakoloba: « Batata na biso bazalaki kaka na banzambe ya lokuta, banzambe ya pamba oyo etikalaki kosalela bango bolamu ata moko te.
20 Shall a man make gods vnto himselfe, and they are no gods?
Boni, bato bakoki solo komisalela banzambe, tango bango moko bazali banzambe te?
21 Beholde, therefore I will this once teach them: I will shewe them mine hande and my power, and they shall know that my Name is the Lord.
Yango wana, nakolakisa bango, nakolakisa bango nguya mpe makasi na ngai; bongo bakoyeba penza ete Kombo na Ngai ezali Yawe. »
