Jeremiah 24
1 YHWH has showed me, and behold, two baskets of figs, appointed before the temple of YHWH—after the removing by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, of Jeconiah, son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the heads of Judah, and the artisan, and the smith, from Jerusalem, when he brings them into Babylon—
Sima na Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, komema na bowumbu, longwa na Yelusalemi kino na Babiloni: Yekonia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, bakalaka ya Yuda, bato ya misala ya maboko mpe bato oyo balambaka bibende na moto; Yawe alakisaki ngai bitunga mibale ya bambuma ya figi oyo batiaki liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
2 In one basket [are] very good figs, like the first-ripe figs, and in the other basket [are] very bad figs that are not eaten because of badness.
Kitunga moko ezalaki na bambuma kitoko ya figi lokola bambuma oyo etelaka liboso; mpe kitunga mosusu ezalaki na bambuma ekawuka oyo bakoki kolia te.
3 And YHWH says to me, “What are you seeing, Jeremiah?” And I say, “Figs, the good figs [are] very good, and the bad [are] very bad, that are not eaten because of badness.”
Yawe atunaki ngai: — Jeremi, ozali komona nini? Nazongisaki: — Nazali komona bambuma ya figi: bambuma oyo ya kitoko ezali elengi, kasi oyo ekawuka ezali mabe mpe moto moko te akoki kolia yango.
4 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai:
5 “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Like these good figs so I acknowledge The expulsion of Judah that I sent from this place, [To] the land of the Chaldeans—for good.
— Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Ndenge bambuma kitoko oyo ya figi ezali, ndenge wana mpe nazali komona bato ya Yuda oyo natindaki na bowumbu, longwa na esika oyo kino na Babiloni.
6 And I have set My eyes on them for good, And have brought them back to this land, And built them up, and I do not throw down, And have planted them, and do not pluck up.
Miso na Ngai ekozala likolo na bango mpo na kosalela bango bolamu, mpe nakozongisa bango kati na mokili oyo. Nakobongisa bango lisusu, kasi nakobebisa bango lisusu te; nakolona bango lokola nzete, nakopikola bango lisusu te.
7 And have given to them a heart to know Me, For I [am] YHWH, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God, For they turned back to Me with all their heart.
Nakopesa bango motema oyo ekoyeba Ngai, mpo ete basosola ete nazali Yawe. Bakozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Nzambe na bango, pamba te bakozongela Ngai na motema na bango mobimba.
8 And like the bad figs that are not eaten for badness, Surely thus said YHWH: So I make Zedekiah king of Judah, And his heads, and the remnant of Jerusalem, Who are left in this land, And who are dwelling in the land of Egypt,
Kasi ndenge bambuma ya figi oyo ekawuka ezali mabe mpe bakoki kolia yango te, » elobi Yawe, « ndenge wana mpe nakosala Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, bakalaka na ye mpe batikali ya Yelusalemi, ezala ba-oyo batikali na mboka mpe ba-oyo bazali na Ejipito:
9 And I have given them for a trembling, For evil—to all kingdoms of the earth, For a reproach, and for an allegory, For a byword, and for a reviling, In all the places to where I drive them.
nakokomisa bango eloko ya koyoka somo mpe ya koyokela pasi, na miso ya bikolo nyonso ya mabele; eloko ya kotiola, eloko ya kosakanela, eloko ya maseki, eloko ya lisuma, kati na bisika nyonso epai wapi nakobengana bango.
10 And I have sent the sword against them, The famine and the pestilence, Until their consumption from off the ground, That I gave to them and to their fathers!”
Nakotindela bango mopanga, nzala makasi mpe bokono oyo ebomaka, kino tango ekosilisa koboma bango na mokili oyo napesaki bango elongo na batata na bango. »
