Obadiah 1
1 The vision of Obadiah. This is what the LORD says about Edom. We have heard news from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, "Arise, and let's rise up against her in battle.
Emoniseli ya mosakoli Abidiasi. Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi na tina na Edomi: « Toyoki sango moko kowuta na Yawe; mpe ntoma moko atindami na bikolo mpo na koloba: ‹ Botelema. Tokende kobundisa Edomi. ›
2 Look, I have made you small among the nations. You are greatly despised.
Tala, nakokomisa yo moke kati na bikolo, mpe okosambwa makasi.
3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, who says in his heart, 'Who will bring me down to the ground?'
Lolendo ya motema na yo ekosaki yo, yo movandi ya madusu ya mabanga, yo oyo otonga ndako na yo na basonge ya bangomba mpe omilobelaka: ‹ Nani akokweyisa ngai na se? ›
4 Though you mount on high as the eagle, and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there," says the LORD.
Ata soki omati likolo makasi lokola mpongo mpe otongi zala na yo kati na minzoto, nakokweyisa yo longwa kuna kino na se, » elobi Yawe.
5 "If thieves came to you, if robbers by night—oh, what disaster awaits you—wouldn't they only steal until they had enough? If grape pickers came to you, wouldn't they leave some gleaning grapes?
« Soki miyibi to babebisi babimeli yo na butu, likama ya ndenge nini ezali kozela yo? Boni, bakozwa kaka biloko oyo bazali na yango posa te? Soki bato oyo babukaka bambuma ya vino bayei epai na yo, boni, bakotika ata ndambo ya maboke ya vino?
6 How Esau will be ransacked. How his hidden treasures are sought out.
Kasi tala ndenge babimeli Ezawu! Babotoli ye biloko na ye ya motuya oyo ebombama!
7 All the men of your alliance have brought you on your way, even to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. Those who eat bread with you lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him."
Bikolo nyonso oyo osalaki elongo na yango boyokani ekobengana yo na mokili na yo; baninga na yo bakokosa yo, bakokonza yo. Ba-oyo bazalaki kolia lipa na yo bakotiela yo motambo. Kasi yo, okoyeba yango te mpo ete okozala lisusu na mayele te.
8 "Won't I in that day," says the LORD, "destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
Na mokolo wana, » elobi Yawe, « nakoboma bato ya bwanya ya Edomi mpe nakolongola bato ya mayele na etuka ya bangomba ya Ezawu.
9 Your mighty men, Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
Temani, basoda na yo ya mpiko bakolenga na somo, mpe bavandi nyonso ya bangomba ya Ezawu bakokufa na mopanga!
10 For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.
Mpo na mabe oyo osalaki Jakobi, ndeko na yo, okotonda na soni okobebisama mpo na libela.
11 In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, even you were like one of them.
Ozalaki kotala kaka bongo tango bato mosusu bazalaki kokende mpe komema bozwi na ye nyonso. Mpe tango bapaya bakotaki kati na engumba na ye, babetaki zeke mpo na kokabola bomengo ya bitumba ya Yelusalemi. Yo mpe osalaki kaka lokola bango.
12 But do not look down on your brother in the day of his disaster, and do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction. Do not speak proudly in the day of distress.
Nzokande, osengelaki te kosepela komona pasi ya ndeko na yo to kosepela komona kobebisama ya bato ya Yuda to mpe kosala lofundu na mokolo ya pasi na bango.
13 Do not enter into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity. Do not look down on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither seize their wealth on the day of their calamity.
Osengelaki te kokota na engumba ya bato na Ngai na mokolo ya pasi na bango to kosepela komona kobebisama na bango to mpe kobotola bozwi na bango nyonso na mokolo oyo bazalaki na pasi makasi.
14 Do not stand in the crossroads to cut off those of his who escape. Do not deliver up those of his who remain in the day of distress.
Osengelaki te kotelema na esika oyo banzela ekutana mpo na koboma bato na bango, oyo bazalaki kokima pasi to mpe kokaba na maboko ya banguna bato na bango, oyo babikaki na mokolo oyo bazalaki na pasi makasi.
15 For the day of the LORD is near all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you. Your deeds will return upon your own head.
Mokolo ya Yawe ekomi pene mpo na bikolo nyonso. Bakosala yo kaka makambo oyo yo osalaki, bongo mabe oyo osalaki ekozongela yo.
16 For as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink continually. Yes, they will drink, swallow down, and will be as though they had not been.
Ndenge ozalaki komela na likolo ya ngomba na Ngai ya bule, ndenge wana mpe bikolo bakokoma komela tango nyonso; bakomela, bakomela lisusu koleka mpe bakosila lokola nde batikala kozala te.
17 But in Mount Zion, there will be those who escape, and it will be holy. The house of Jacob will possess those who dispossessed them.
Kasi bato oyo bakobika bakokimela na ngomba Siona; ngomba yango ekokoma lisusu bule, mpe bato ya Jakobi bakozongela lisusu libula na bango.
18 The house of Jacob will be a fire, the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble. They will burn among them, and devour them. There will not be any remaining to the house of Esau." Indeed, the LORD has spoken.
Bato ya Jakobi bakokoma lokola moto, libota ya Jozefi ekokoma lokola lolemo ya moto. Kasi libota ya Ezawu ekokoma lokola matiti, bongo moto ya libota ya Jakobi mpe ya Jozefi ekozikisa yango. Boye, kati na bana ya Ezawu, moto ata moko te akotikala na bomoi, » elobi Yawe.
19 Those of the Negev will possess the mountain of Esau, and those of the lowland, the Philistines. They will possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria. Benjamin will possess Gilead.
Bato oyo bakowuta na Negevi bakovanda na etuka ya bangomba ya Ezawu, mpe ba-oyo bavandaka na etando ya se ya lubwaku bakozwa mokili ya bato ya Filisitia. Bakozwa etuka ya Efrayimi mpe ya Samari, mpe bato ya Benjame bakozwa Galadi.
20 The captives of this army of the children of Israel, who are among the Canaanites, will possess even to Zarephath; and the captives of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the Negev.
Bato ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki na bowumbu bakozwa mokili ya bato ya Kanana kino na Sarepita; bongo bato ya Yelusalemi oyo bazalaki na bowumbu na Sefaradi bakozwa bingumba ya Negevi.
21 Those who have been saved will go up on Mount Zion to judge the mountains of Esau, and the kingdom will be the LORD's.
Babikisi bakomata na ngomba Siona mpo na koyangela bangomba ya Ezawu, mpe Yawe akokoma Mokonzi.
