< Habakkuk 2 >
1 On my charge I stand, and I station myself on a bulwark, and I watch to see what He speaks against me, and what I reply to my reproof.
Nakotelema na esika na ngai ya kokengela, nakotelema ngai moko na likolo ya mir, nakosenzela mpo na komona makambo oyo akoyebisa ngai mpe eyano oyo nakopesa na banzembo oyo ya mawa.
2 And YHWH answers me and says: “Write a vision, and explain on the tablets, That he may run who is reading it.
Yawe ayanolaki: — Koma emoniseli oyo, koma yango na etando ya mabanga, koma yango penza malamu mpo ete moto nyonso akoka kotanga yango na bopete.
3 For yet the vision [is] for a season, And it breathes for the end, and does not lie, If it lingers, wait for it, For surely it comes, it is not late.
Emoniseli oyo ezali kaka kozela tango na yango oyo ekatama; ezali kolobela makambo oyo ekosalema na tango ya suka; solo, ekokosa te. Ata ewumeli, (zela) yango kaka; solo, ekokokisama, ekowumela te.
4 Behold, a presumptuous one! His soul is not upright within him, And the righteous lives by his faith.
Tala, atondisami na lolendo, motema na ye ezali na bosembo te; kasi moto ya sembo akobika na nzela ya kondima na ye.
5 And also, because the wine [is] treacherous, A man is haughty, and does not remain at home, Who has enlarged his soul as Sheol, And is as death that is not satisfied, And gathers to itself all the nations, And assembles to itself all the peoples, (Sheol )
Solo, masanga ya vino ekosaka; moto ya lolendo avandaka kimia te. Mpo ete azali lokoso lokola mboka ya bakufi mpe atondaka te lokola kufa, asangisaka bato ya bikolo nyonso pembeni na ye mpe akomisaka bango bawumbu na ye. (Sheol )
6 Are these not—all of them—an allegory taken up against him, And a moral of acute sayings for him, And say, Woe [to] him who is multiplying [what is] not his? Until when also is he multiplying to himself heavy pledges?
Boni, bato wana nyonso bakoseka ye te na maloba ya kotiola mpe ya kosambwisa lokola: « Mawa na ye oyo azali kobomba biloko ya moyibi mpe akolisaka bomengo na ye na kobotola bato biloko na makasi! » Makambo ya boye ekokoba kino penza tango nini?
7 Do your usurers not instantly rise up, And those shaking you awake, And you have been a spoil to them?
Boni, bakolo biloko bakobimela yo te na pwasa? Bakolamukela yo mpe bakolengisa yo. Boni, okokoma te lokola mosuni na bango ya kolia?
8 Because you have spoiled many nations, All the remnant of the peoples spoil you, Because of man’s blood, and of violence [to] the land, [To] the city, and [to] all dwelling in it.
Lokola obotolaki bomengo ya bato ya bikolo ebele na makasi, bato oyo batikali bakobotola yo mpe bomengo na yo na makasi, mpo ete osopaki makila ya bato, obebisaki mikili mpe bingumba elongo na bavandi na yango nyonso.
9 Woe [to] him who is gaining evil gain for his house, To set his nest on high, To be delivered from the hand of evil,
Mawa na moto oyo atongaka ndako na ye na nzela ya sembo te! Alukaka kosala zala na ye na likolo ya bangomba mpo na kokima ete makambo mabe ekomela ye.
10 You have counseled a shameful thing to your house, To cut off many peoples, and your soul [is] sinful.
Lokola osalaki mabongisi ya kobebisa bato ebele, obongisaki nde soni ya ndako na yo moko mpe okotisi nde bomoi na yo moko na likama.
11 For a stone cries out from the wall, And a beam from the wood answers it.
Mabanga ya mir ekoganga mpe mabaya ya motondo ekoyanola.
12 Woe [to] him who is building a city by blood, And establishing a city by iniquity.
Mawa na moto oyo atongaka engumba na nzela ya makila mpe alendisaka yango na nzela ya lokuta!
13 Behold, is it not from YHWH of Hosts And peoples are fatigued for fire, And nations for vanity are weary?
Boni, ekatama te epai na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ete misala ya bato ezala kaka lokola koni oyo ezali kopela moto, ete bikolo enyokwamaka bobele se pamba?
14 For the earth is full of the knowledge of the glory of YHWH, As the waters cover over a sea.
Pamba te mokili ekotonda na boyebi ya nkembo na Yawe ndenge mayi etondaka na ebale.
15 Woe [to] him who is giving drink to his neighbor, Pouring out your bottle, and also making drunk, In order to look on their nakedness.
Mawa na moto oyo amelisaka moninga na ye masanga makasi kino asilisa mbeki nyonso mpe alangwa mpo ete amona bolumbu na ye!
16 You have been filled—shame without honor, Drink also, and be uncircumcised, Turn around to you does the cup of the right hand of YHWH, And shameful spewing [is] on your glory.
Na esika ete otondisama na nkembo, okotondisama na soni. Sik’oyo ekomi tango na yo, mela mpe tikala bolumbu! Kopo oyo ewuti na loboko ya mobali ya Yawe eyei kozingela yo, mpe soni ekozipa nkembo na yo.
17 For violence [done to] Lebanon covers you, And spoil of beasts frightens them, Because of man’s blood, and of violence [to] the land, [To] the city, and [to] all dwelling in it.
Mabe oyo osalaki mokili ya Libani ekozongela yo, mpe somo ya banyama oyo obomaki ekokomela yo; pamba te osopaki makila ya bato, obebisaki mikili mpe bingumba elongo na bavandi na yango nyonso.
18 What profit has a carved image given That its former has hewn it? A molten image and teacher of falsehood, That the former has trusted on his own formation—to make mute idols?
Boni, banzambe ya bikeko ezali na tina nini, pamba te moto nde asalaki yango? Elilingi oyo eteyaka makambo ya lokuta ezali na tina penza nini? Pamba te moto oyo asalaki yango azali nde kotia elikya na mosala ya maboko na ye, asali nde ekeko oyo elobaka te.
19 Woe [to] him who is saying to wood, Awake, To a mute stone, Stir up, It [is] a teacher! Behold, it is overlaid—gold and silver, And there is no spirit in its midst.
Mawa na moto oyo alobaka na eteni ya nzete: « Telema! » Mawa na moto oyo alobaka na libanga oyo ezanga bomoi: « Lamuka! » Boni, ekeko ekoki solo kolakisa moto nzela? Bazipa yango wolo mpe palata, kasi pema ezali te kati na yango.
20 And YHWH [is] in His holy temple, Be silent before Him, all the earth!”
Nzokande, Yawe azali kati na Tempelo na Ye ya bule; tika ete mokili mobimba ezala kimia liboso na Ye!
