Micah 4
1 And it has come to pass, In the latter end of the days, The mountain of the house of YHWH Is established above the top of the mountains, And it has been lifted up above the hills, And flowed to it have peoples.
Na mikolo oyo ekoya, ngomba ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekolendisama ngwi na songe ya bangomba, ekoleka bangomba mikuse nyonso na molayi, mpe bikolo ekokende kotondana kuna.
2 And gone have many nations and said, “Come and we go up to the mountain of YHWH, And to the house of the God of Jacob, And He teaches us of His ways, And we walk in His paths,” For a law goes forth from Zion, And a word of YHWH from Jerusalem.
Bato ya bikolo ebele bakokende kuna mpe bakoloba: « Boya, tomata na ngomba ya Yawe, na Tempelo ya Nzambe ya Jakobi! Akoteya biso banzela na Ye mpo ete tolanda banzela mike na Ye. » Pamba te Mobeko ekowuta na Siona, mpe Liloba na Yawe ekowuta na Yelusalemi.
3 And He has judged between many peoples, And given a decision to mighty nations far off, They have beaten their swords to plowshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation does not lift up sword to nation, Nor do they learn war anymore.
Akozala Mosambisi kati na bikolo ebele, akokata makambo ya kowelana kati na mabota ya nguya, ezala oyo ezalaka mosika. Bakotumba mipanga na bango na moto mpo na kosala bakongo, mpe makonga na bango mpo na kosala bambeli. Ekolo moko te ekotombola lisusu mopanga mpo na kobundisa ekolo mosusu, bato bakoyekola lisusu te kobunda bitumba.
4 And they have sat each under his vine, And under his fig tree, And there is none troubling, For the mouth of YHWH of Hosts has spoken.
Moto nyonso akovanda na kimia kati na bilanga na ye ya vino mpe na se ya nzete na ye ya figi. Moto moko te akobangisa ye, pamba te Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, nde alobi.
5 For all the peoples walk, Each in the name of its god—and we, We walk in the Name of our God YHWH, For all time and forever.
Ekolo na ekolo ekotambola na kombo ya nzambe na yango, kasi biso tokotambola na Kombo na Yawe oyo azali Nzambe na biso, mpo na libela.
6 “In that day,” a declaration of YHWH, “I gather the halting one, And the driven away one I bring together, And she whom I have afflicted.
« Na mokolo yango, » elobi Yawe, « Nakosangisa libota na Ngai, oyo ezali kotambola tengu-tengu; nakoyamba oyo ezalaki na bowumbu, mosika na Ngai, mpe oyo natiaki pasi likolo na yango.
7 And I have set the halting for a remnant, And the far-off for a mighty nation, And YHWH has reigned over them in Mount Zion, From now on, and for all time.
Nakosala ete libota oyo ezali kotambola tengu-tengu ekoma batikali, mpe oyo bazalaki na bowumbu mosika na Ngai, libota ya nguya. Yawe akozala Mokonzi na bango, na ngomba Siona, kobanda na mokolo yango kino libela na libela.
8 And you, O Tower of Eder, Fort of the daughter of Zion, to you it comes, Indeed, the former rule has come in, The kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.”
Mpo na yo, ndako molayi ya bakengeli bibwele, ngomba ya Siona, mboka kitoko, bakozongisela yo bokonzi na yo ya kala, bakozongisa bokonzi ya Yelusalemi, mboka kitoko. »
9 Now why do you shout aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, That pain as of a travailing woman has taken hold of you?
Sik’oyo, mpo na nini ozali koganga? Boni, ozali lisusu na mokonzi te? Boni, mopesi toli na yo asili kokufa mpo ete pasi ekanga yo lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota?
10 Be pained, and bring forth, O daughter of Zion, As a travailing woman, For now you go forth from the city, And you have dwelt in the field, And you have gone to Babylon, There you are delivered, There YHWH redeems you from the hand of your enemies.
Oh Siona, mboka kitoko, lela lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota! Pamba te sik’oyo, okobima na engumba mpe okovanda kati na zamba, okokende kino na Babiloni; mpe kuna, Yawe akokangola yo na maboko ya monguna na yo.
11 And now, many nations have gathered against you, who are saying: “Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.”
Kasi sik’oyo, bikolo ebele esangani mpo na kotelemela yo; bazali koloba: « Tika ete bosantu ya Siona esambwa mpe miso esepela komona kobebisama na yango! »
12 They have not known the thoughts of YHWH, Nor have they understood His counsel, For He has gathered them as a sheaf [into] a threshing-floor.
Kasi bayebi makanisi na Yawe te mpe bazali kososola mabongisi na Ye te, Ye oyo asangisaki bango lokola maboke ya matiti ya ble na etando oyo batutelaka yango.
13 Arise, and thresh, O daughter of Zion, For I make your horn iron, And I make your hooves bronze, And you have beaten small many peoples, And I have devoted to YHWH their gain, And their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth!
Oh Siona, mboka kitoko, telema mpe tuta ble, pamba te nakopesa yo maseke ya bibende mpe basapato ya bronze, bongo okobuka bikolo ebele mike-mike mpe okopesa bomengo na bango, oyo bazwaki na nzela ya mabe, lokola likabo epai na Yawe, mpe bozwi na bango epai na Mokonzi ya mokili mobimba.
