Jeremiah 34
1 The worde which came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord (when Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and all his hoste, and all the kingdomes of the earth, that were vnder the power of his hand, and all people fought against Ierusalem, and against all the cites thereof) saying,
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi wana Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, elongo na basoda na ye nyonso, mikili ya bakonzi nyonso oyo azalaki kokamba, mpe bikolo nyonso bazalaki kobundisa Yelusalemi mpe bingumba nyonso ya zingazinga na yango:
2 Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Goe, and speake to Zedekiah King of Iudah, and tell him, Thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, I will giue this citie into the hand of the King of Babel, and he shall burne it with fire,
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: kende koloba na Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nasengeli kokaba engumba oyo na maboko ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe akobebisa yango na moto.
3 And thou shall not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and deliuered into his hand, and thine eyes shall beholde the face of the King of Babel, and he shall speake with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babel.
Bongo yo, okobika te na loboko na ye, kasi bakokanga yo solo mpe bakokaba yo na maboko na ye; okomona mokonzi ya Babiloni miso na yo moko, akolobana na yo elongi na elongi, mpe okokende na Babiloni.
4 Yet heare the worde of the Lord, O Zedekiah, King of Iudah: thus sayth the Lord of thee, Thou shalt not dye by the sword,
Nzokande, Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, yoka Liloba na Yawe! Tala elaka oyo Yawe apesi yo: Okokufa na mopanga te,
5 But thou shalt die in peace: and according to the burning for thy fathers the former Kings which were before thee, so shall they burne odours for thee, and they shall lament thee, saying, Oh lorde: for I haue pronounced the worde, sayth the Lord.
kasi okokufa na kimia. Mpe ndenge bato bapelisaki moto mpe batumbaki malasi ya solo kitoko, na matanga ya batata na yo, bakonzi ya kala oyo baleka liboso na yo, mpo na kopesa bango lokumu, ndenge wana mpe bakosala mpo na lokumu na yo. Mpe bakoyemba nzembo ya mawa na tina na yo: ‘Oh mawa, nkolo na ngai!’ Solo, Ngai moko nde napesi elaka oyo, elobi Yawe. › »
6 Then Ieremiah the Prophet spake all these words vnto Zedekiah King of Iudah in Ierusalem,
Mosakoli Jeremi alobaki na Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, maloba wana nyonso, kati na Yelusalemi,
7 (When the King of Babels hoste fought against Ierusalem, and against all the cities of Iudah, that were left, euen against Lachish, and against Azekah: for these strong cities remained of the cities of Iudah)
wana basoda ya mokonzi ya Babiloni bazalaki kobundisa Yelusalemi mpe bingumba nyonso mosusu ya Yuda, oyo mokonzi ya Babiloni alongaki nanu te: Lakishi mpe Azeka, pamba te yango kaka nde ezalaki bingumba batonga makasi oyo etikalaki kati na Yuda.
8 This is the worde that came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, after that the King Zedekiah had made a couenant with all the people, which were at Ierusalem, to proclaime libertie vnto them,
Sima na mokonzi Sedesiasi kosala boyokani elongo na bato nyonso kati na Yelusalemi mpo ete kokangolama ya bawumbu nyonso esakolama, Yawe alobaki na Jeremi
9 That euery man should let his seruant go free, and euery man his handmayde, which was an Ebrue or an Ebruesse, and that none should serue himselfe of them, to wit, of a Iewe his brother.
mpo ete moto nyonso apesa bawumbu na ye bonsomi, bawumbu oyo bazali Ba-Ebre, bazala mibali to basi; mpe mpo ete moto moko te akoba kokanga ndeko na ye, Moyuda, kati na bowumbu.
10 Now when all the princes, and all the people which had agreed to the couenant, heard that euery one should let his seruant go free, and euery one his handmaide, and that none should serue them selues of them any more, they obeyed and let them go.
Boye, bakambi nyonso mpe bato nyonso oyo basalaki boyokani yango bandimaki kokangola bawumbu na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi mpe kopesa bango bonsomi, mpo ete bakoba lisusu te kokanga bango na bowumbu; bandimaki, bakokisaki mpe bapesaki bawumbu na bango bonsomi.
11 But afterwarde they repented and caused the seruants and the handmayds, whom they had let go free, to returne, and helde them in subiection as seruants and handmayds.
Kasi sima na tango, babongolaki makanisi na bango; bakangaki lisusu na bowumbu mibali mpe basi oyo bango basilaki kopesa bonsomi, mpe bakomisaki bango lisusu bawumbu.
12 Therefore the worde of the Lord came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
Boye, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
13 Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I made a couenant with your fathers, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of seruants, saying,
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Nasalaki boyokani elongo na bakoko na bino tango nabimisaki bango na Ejipito, mokili ya bowumbu; nalobaki:
14 At the terme of seuen yeres let ye go, euery man his brother an Ebrewe which hath bene solde vnto thee: and when he hath serued the sixe yeres, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers obeyed me not, neither inclined their eares.
‹ Sima na mibu sambo nyonso, moto nyonso kati na bino asengeli kopesa bonsomi na Moyuda, ndeko na ye, oyo amitekaki lokola mowumbu; akosalela yo mibu motoba, bongo, sima na yango, okotika ye kokende na bonsomi. › Kasi bakoko na bino bayokaki Ngai te mpe batosaki Ngai te.
15 And ye were nowe turned, and had done right in my sight in proclayming libertie, euery man to his neighbour, and ye had made a couenant before mee in the house, whereupon my Name is called.
Nzokande bino, na mwa mikolo oyo kaka, bobongolaki bino moko mitema mpo na kosala makambo ya sembo na miso na Ngai: moko na moko kati na bino asakolaki kokangolama ya ndeko na ye, apesaki ndeko na ye bonsomi. Bosalaki kutu boyokani yango liboso na Ngai, kati na Ndako Ngai.
16 But ye repented, and polluted my Name: for ye haue caused euery man his seruant, and euery man his handmayde, whom ye had set at libertie at their pleasure, to returne, and holde them in subiection to bee vnto you as seruantes and as handmaydes.
Kasi tala sik’oyo makambo bosali: bozongi sima, botiki ekateli oyo bozwaki mpe botioli bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai; pamba te bozongisi bawumbu na bino ya kala, mibali to basi, oyo bopesaki bonsomi mpo ete bakende na esika nyonso oyo balingi; bokangi bango na makasi mpo ete bakoma lisusu bawumbu na bino.
17 Therefore thus saith the Lord, Ye haue not obeyed mee, in proclayming freedome euery man to his brother, and euery man to his neighbour: beholde, I proclaime a libertie for you, saith the Lord, to the sworde, to the pestilence, and to the famine, and I will make you a terrour to all the kingdomes of the earth.
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Lokola botosaki Ngai te, bosakolaki te kokangolama ya bandeko na bino moko mpe bopesaki bango bonsomi te, Ngai mpe, elobi Yawe, nasakoli ete napesi sik’oyo bonsomi epai ya mopanga, epai ya bokono oyo ebomaka mpe epai ya nzala makasi; nafungoli yango mpo na kotelemela bino: nakokomisa bino eloko ya koyoka somo, na miso ya bikolo nyonso ya mabele;
18 And I will giue those men that haue broken my couenant, and haue not kept the wordes of the couenant, which they had made before me, when they cut the calfe in twaine, and passed betweene the partes thereof:
nakokaba bato oyo babebisaki boyokani na Ngai mpe bakokisaki te malako ya boyokani oyo basalaki liboso na Ngai, na nzela ya kokata na biteni mibale mwana ngombe ya mobali mpe ya kotambola na kati-kati ya biteni yango.
19 The princes of Iudah, and the princes of Ierusalem, the Eunuches, and the Priestes, and all the people of the lande, which passed betweene the partes of the calfe,
Bakambi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi, bakalaka ya lokumu, Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato nyonso ya mokili, oyo batambolaki na kati-kati ya biteni ya mwana ngombe ya mobali,
20 I wil euen giue them into the hand of their enemies, and into the handes of them that seeke their life: and their dead bodies shalbe for meate vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beastes of the earth.
nakokaba bango na maboko ya banguna na bango mpe ya bato oyo bazali koluka kosala bango mabe; mpe bibembe na bango ekokoma bilei ya bandeke ya likolo mpe ya banyama ya mabele.
21 And Zedekiah King of Iudah, and his princes will I giue into the hand of their enemies, and into the hande of them that seeke their life, and into the hande of the King of Babels hoste, which are gone vp from you.
Nakokaba Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, elongo na bakalaka na ye na maboko ya banguna na bango, oyo bazali koluka kosala bango mabe, na maboko ya mampinga ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, oyo akei sik’oyo mosika na bino.
22 Beholde, I will commande, saith the Lord, and cause them to returne to this citie, and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burne it with fire: and I will make the cities of Iudah desolate without an inhabitant.
Nakopesa bango mitindo, elobi Yawe, mpe nakozongisa bango kati na engumba oyo: bakobundisa yango, bakobotola yango mpe bakobebisa yango na moto. Mpe nakokomisa bingumba ya Yuda esobe, ezanga bavandi. »
