< Micah 3 >
1 And I sayd, Heare, I pray you, O heads of Iaakob, and yee princes of the house of Israel: should not ye knowe iudgement?
Boye, nalobaki: « Boyoka, bino bakambi ya libota ya Jakobi, bino batambolisi ya libota ya Isalaele! Ezali bino te bato bosengeli koyeba malamu mibeko?
2 But they hate the good, and loue the euill: they plucke off their skinnes from them, and their flesh from their bones.
Nzokande, ezali bino bato bozali koboya bolamu mpe bozali kolinga mabe. Bozali kolongola poso ya nzoto ya bato ya libota na ngai, bozali kolongola misuni na bango mpe kobuka mikuwa na bango.
3 And they eate also the flesh of my people, and flay off their skinne from them, and they breake their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
Bozali kodunda misuni ya bato ya libota na ngai, bozali kolongola bango poso ya nzoto mpe kobuka mikuwa na bango. Bozali kokata bango mike-mike lokola misuni oyo bakalingaka to oyo batokisaka na nzungu. »
4 Then shall they crye vnto the Lord, but he will not heare them: he wil euen hide his face from them at that time, because they haue done wickedly in their workes.
Yango wana, tango bakobelela Yawe, akoyanola bango te. Na tango wana, akobombela bango elongi na Ye likolo ya mabe na bango nyonso oyo basalaki.
5 Thus saith the Lord, Concerning the prophets that deceiue my people, and bite them with their teeth, and cry peace, but if a man put not into their mouthes, they prepare warre against him,
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi mpo na kotelemela basakoli ya lokuta oyo babungisaka bato na ngai nzela: « Soki bapesi bango eloko ya kolia, basakolaka kimia; soki bapesi bango te eloko ya kolia, basakolaka bitumba.
6 Therefore night shalbe vnto you for a vision, and darkenesse shalbe vnto you for a diuination, and the sunne shall goe downe ouer the prophets, and the day shalbe darke ouer them.
Na butu, bokozwa lisusu bimoniseli te. Soki bapesi bango te eloko ya kolia, molili ekozingela bino mpe bokokoka lisusu kosakola te! Moyi ekobimela lisusu basakoli yango te, mpe mokolo ekokoma molili mpo na bango.
7 Then shall the Seers bee ashamed, and the southsayers confounded: yea, they shall all couer their lippes, for they haue none answere of God.
Bamoni makambo bakotonda na soni, mpe bato oyo balobaka makambo oyo ekoya bakosambwa. Bango nyonso bakobomba bilongi na bango, pamba te Nzambe akoyanola bango te. »
8 Yet notwithstanding I am full of power by the Spirite of the Lord, and of iudgement, and of strength to declare vnto Iaakob his transgression, and to Israel his sinne.
Kasi ngai, na nzela ya Molimo na Yawe, natondisami na nguya, na bosembo mpe na mpiko mpo na kobimisa polele mabe ya Jakobi mpe lisumu ya Isalaele.
9 Heare this, I pray you, ye heades of the house of Iaakob, and princes of the house of Israel: they abhorre iudgement, and peruert all equitie.
Boyoka maloba oyo, bakambi ya Jakobi mpe batambolisi ya Isalaele, bino oyo bolingaka makambo ya sembo te mpe bobongolaka makambo ya alima,
10 They build vp Zion with blood, and Ierusalem with iniquitie.
bino oyo botongaka Siona na kosopa makila, mpe Yelusalemi na kosalaka makambo mabe.
11 The heads thereof iudge for rewardes, and the Priestes thereof teache for hyre, and the prophets thereof prophecie for money: yet wil they leane vpon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among vs? no euill can come vpon vs.
Bakambi na yango basengaka kanyaka liboso ya kokata makambo, Banganga-Nzambe na yango basengaka misolo liboso ya koteya, mpe basakoli na yango basengaka mbongo liboso ya kosakola. Nzokande, babombamaka na sima ya Kombo ya Yawe tango balobaka: « Boni, Yawe azali kati na biso te? Pasi ekoki kokomela biso te! »
12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake bee plowed as a field, and Ierusalem shalbe an heape, and the mountaine of the house, as the hye places of the forest.
Yango wana, likolo na bino, bakobalola Siona ndenge babalolaka mabele ya bilanga. Yelusalemi ekokoma liboke ya mabanga, mpe ngomba epai wapi batongaki Tempelo ekokoma ngomba moke oyo ezipami na matiti.
