< Lamentations 1 >
1 [ALEPH-BET] How she has sat alone, The city abounding with people! She has been as a widow, The mighty among nations! Princes among provinces, She has become tributary!
Tala ndenge nini engumba oyo, na kala, ezalaki na bato ebele penza, etikali lisusu na bato te! Tala ndenge nini engumba oyo ezalaki na lokumu kati na bikolo ekomi lelo lokola mwasi akufisa mobali; oyo ezalaki engumba mokonzi ekomi lelo na bowumbu!
2 She weeps severely in the night, And her tear [is] on her cheeks, There is no comforter for her out of all her lovers, All her friends dealt treacherously by her, They have been to her for enemies.
Butu mobimba, azali kolela se kolela, mpinzoli etondi na matama na ye. Kati na bamakangu na ye nyonso, moko te ayei kobondisa ye; baninga na ye nyonso bakosi ye, bakomi banguna na ye.
3 Removed has Judah because of affliction, And because of the abundance of her service; She has dwelt among nations, She has not found rest, All her pursuers have overtaken her between the straits.
Yuda akei na bowumbu, akomi konyokwama mpe kosala misala makasi; azali kovanda kati na bikolo, azali lisusu na esika ya kopema te. Bato nyonso oyo bazali kolanda ye, bakangi ye kati na pasi makasi.
4 The ways of Zion are mourning, Without any coming at the appointed time, All her gates are desolate, her priests sigh, Her virgins are afflicted—and she has bitterness.
Nzela oyo ekenda kino na Siona ezali na matanga, pamba te bato bazali koya lisusu na bafeti te. Bikuke na ye nyonso etikali lisusu na bato te, Banganga-Nzambe na ye bazali kolela, bana na ye ya basi oyo bayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te bazali na mawa; bongo ye moko akomi na pasi makasi kati na motema.
5 Her adversaries have become chief, Her enemies have been at ease, For YHWH has afflicted her, For the abundance of her transgressions, Her infants have gone captive before the adversary.
Banguna na ye bakomi bakonzi na ye, bayini na ye bazali na esengo; pamba te Yawe atindeli Siona pasi likolo ya ebele ya masumu na ye. Bana na ye ya mibali bakei na bowumbu, bakangi bango mpe bazali kotambola liboso ya monguna na ye.
6 And all her honor goes out from the daughter of Zion, Her princes have been as harts—They have not found pasture, And they go powerless before a pursuer.
Lokumu nyonso ya Siona, mboka kitoko, esili; bakambi na ye bakomi lokola mboloko oyo ezangi matiti ya kolia, mpe bazali kokima, makasi na bango esili liboso ya moto oyo azali kolanda bango.
7 Jerusalem has remembered [In] the days of her affliction and her mournings, all her desirable things that were from the days of old, In the falling of her people into the hand of an adversary, And she has no helper; Adversaries have seen her, They have laughed at her cessation.
Na mikolo na ye ya pasi mpe ya koyengayenga, tango bato na ye bazali kokweya na maboko ya banguna mpe moto akosunga ye azali te, Yelusalemi azali kokanisa bomengo na ye nyonso ya kala; bayini na ye batali ye na pamba mpe basepeli na kobebisama na ye.
8 A sin has Jerusalem sinned, Therefore she has become impure, All who honored her have esteemed her lightly, For they have seen her nakedness, Indeed, she herself has sighed and turns backward.
Yelusalemi asali masumu mingi penza, yango wana akomi mbindo. Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kopesa ye lokumu bakomi kotiola ye, pamba te bamoni bolumbu na ye; ye moko mpe azali komilela mpe abaluki mpo na kobomba elongi.
9 Her uncleanness [is] in her skirts, She has not remembered her latter end, And she comes down wonderfully, There is no comforter for her. See, O YHWH, my affliction, For an enemy has exerted himself.
Mbindo na ye ekangami ye na elamba, ayebaki te makambo nini ekokomela ye na sima. Tala ye wana akweyi, bongo kokweya na ye ezali kokamwisa; moto oyo akolendisa ye azali te! « Oh Yawe, tala pasi na ngai, pamba te monguna alongi ngai! »
10 His hand has spread out an adversary On all her desirable things, For she has seen—Nations have entered her sanctuary, Concerning which You commanded, “They do not come into the assembly to you.”
Monguna asemboli loboko na ye likolo ya bomengo nyonso ya Yelusalemi, bongo azali komona bikolo ya bapaya kokota na esika na ye ya bule, bikolo oyo Yo opekisaki kokota kati na lisanga na Yo.
11 All her people are sighing—seeking bread, They have given their desirable things For food to refresh the body; See, O YHWH, and behold attentively, For I have been lightly esteemed.
Bato na ye nyonso bazali kolela lokola bato bazali koluka bilei; bapesaki bomengo na bango mpo na kozwa bilei, mpo ete bawumela na bomoi. Oh Yawe, tala mpe mona ndenge natiolami!
12 [Is it] nothing to you, all you passing by the way? Look attentively, and see, If there is any pain like my pain, That He is rolling to me? Whom YHWH has afflicted In the day of the fierceness of His anger.
Bino bato nyonso oyo bolekelaka wana; boni, ezali kosala bino eloko moko te? Botala malamu zingazinga na bino, ezali na pasi lokola pasi oyo ekomeli ngai? Yawe atindeli ngai yango na mokolo ya kanda makasi na Ye.
13 From above He has sent fire into my bone, And it subdues it, He has spread a net for my feet, He has turned me backward, He has made me desolate—all the day sick.
Wuta na likolo, atindeli ngai moto, akitiseli ngai yango kino na mikuwa; atieli ngai motambo na makolo mpe akweyisi ngai; akomisi ngai eloko ya pamba, akotisi ngai na mawa ya mokolo na mokolo.
14 Bound has been the yoke of my transgressions by His hand, They are wrapped together, They have gone up on my neck, He has caused my power to stumble, The Lord has given me into hands, I am not able to rise.
Maboko na Ye ekangi masumu na ngai ndenge bakangaka ekangiseli; masumu yango emati ngai kino na kingo, mpe Nkolo asilisi makasi na ngai, akabi ngai na maboko ya bato oyo nazali na makoki ya kotelemela te.
15 The Lord has trodden down all my mighty ones in my midst, He proclaimed an appointed time against me, To destroy my young men, The Lord has trodden a winepress, To the virgin daughter of Judah.
Yawe asundoli bilombe nyonso ya bitumba oyo bazalaki na milongo na ngai; abengi mampinga ya bapaya mpo ete baya koboma bilenge mibali na ngai. Nkolo akamoli Yuda, mboka kitoko, na ekamolelo na Ye ya vino.
16 For these I am weeping, My eye, my eye, is running down with waters, For a comforter has been far from me, Refreshing my soul, My sons have been desolate, For mighty has been an enemy.
Tala tina nini nazali kolela mpe miso na ngai etondi na mpinzoli; moto moko te ayei pene na ngai mpo na kobondisa ngai, moto moko te ayei kolendisa molimo na ngai. Bana na ngai bazali na pasi, mpo ete monguna aleki ngai na makasi.
17 Zion has spread forth her hands, There is no comforter for her, YHWH has charged concerning Jacob, His neighbors [are] his adversaries, Jerusalem has become impure among them.
Siona atomboli maboko na ye, kasi moto oyo akobondisa ye azali te. Yawe azwi mokano mpo na Jakobi ete bazalani na ye bakokoma banguna na ye, mpe ete Yelusalemi akokoma eloko ya mbindo na miso na bango.
18 YHWH is righteous, For I have provoked His mouth. Now hear, all you peoples, and see my pain, My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
Yawe azali sembo; nzokande, ezali ngai nde natombokelaki mitindo na Ye. Boyoka, bino bikolo nyonso, mpe botala pasi na ngai! Bana na ngai ya basi mpe ya mibali bakei na bowumbu.
19 I called for my lovers, they have deceived me, My priests and my elderly have expired in the city; When they have sought food for themselves, Then they give back their soul.
Nabengisaki baninga na ngai, kasi bakosaki ngai. Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakambi na ngai bakufaki kati na engumba tango bazalaki koluka bilei mpo ete bawumela na bomoi.
20 See, O YHWH, for distress [is] to me, My bowels have been troubled, My heart has been turned in my midst, For I have greatly provoked, From outside the sword has bereaved, In the house [it is] as death.
Oh Yawe, tala ndenge nazali na pasi: libumu na ngai ezali kotungisama, mpe motema na ngai ezali kosala pasi, pamba te nazalaki motomboki penza. Na libanda, mopanga ezali koboma bana na ngai; mpe na kati, ezali kaka kufa.
21 They have heard that I have sighed, There is no comforter for me, All my enemies have heard of my calamity, They have rejoiced that You have done [it], You have brought in the day You have called, And they are like to me.
Bato bayokaki na bango kolela na ngai, kasi moto akobondisa ngai azali te; banguna na ngai nyonso bayokaki sango ya pasi na ngai mpe basepelaki na makambo oyo osalaki. Tika ete okokisa solo mokolo oyo olakaki, mpo ete bango mpe bakoma lokola ngai!
22 All their evil comes in before You, And one is doing to them as You have done to me, For all my transgressions, For many [are] my sighs, and my heart [is] sick!
Tika ete mabe na bango nyonso eya liboso na Yo; sala bango ndenge osalaki ngai mpo na masumu nyonso oyo nasalaki! Kolela na ngai ezali mingi mpe motema na ngai etondi na pasi!
