Ezekiel 11
1 Then the spirit lifted me up, and brought me to the east gate of the house of Jehovah, that looketh toward the east; and behold, at the entrance of the gate were five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah, the son of Azur, and Pelatiah, the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
Bongo Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai kino na ekuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe, oyo etala na ngambo ya este. Bato tuku mibale na mitano bazalaki wana na ekotelo ya ekuke; mpe namonaki kati na bango: Yazania, mwana mobali ya Azuri, mpe Pelatia, mwana mobali ya Benaya, oyo bazalaki bakambi ya bato.
2 Then said He to me: These are the men that devise mischief, and form evil designs in this city;
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala bato oyo basalaka mabongisi ya mabe mpe bapesaka batoli ya mabe kati na engumba oyo.
3 who say, “The time is not near that we should build houses. This city is the caldron, and we are the flesh.”
Balobaka: ‹ Boni, tango ya kotonga bandako ekoki nanu te? Engumba oyo ezali lokola nzungu, mpe biso, tozali lokola misuni. ›
4 Therefore, prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man!
Yango wana, sakola makambo ya mabe na tina na bango; sakola, mwana na moto! »
5 And the spirit of Jehovah fell upon me, and he said to me, Speak: Thus saith Jehovah: Thus have ye said, O house of Israel! For I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
Molimo na Yawe akitaki likolo na ngai mpe ayebisaki ngai ete naloba: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Tala makambo oyo bozali koloba, bino bakambi kati na Isalaele! Kasi Ngai nayebi makambo oyo bozali kokanisa.
6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
Bobomi bato ebele kati na engumba oyo mpe botondisi babalabala na yango na bibembe.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Your slain, whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron; but you will I bring forth out of the midst of it.
Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: engumba oyo ezali solo nzungu, mpe bibembe oyo bobwaki kuna, yango nde misuni; kasi Ngai, nakobengana bino kati na yango.
8 Ye have feared the sword, and the sword will I bring upon you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Bozali kobanga mopanga? Solo, Ngai, nakotindela bino mopanga, elobi Nkolo Yawe;
9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and execute judgments upon you.
nakobengana bino na engumba oyo, nakokaba bino na maboko ya bapaya mpe nakopesa bino etumbu.
10 Ye shall fall by the sword; on the borders of Israel will I judge you, that ye may know that I am Jehovah.
Bokokufa na mopanga, nakosambisa bino na bandelo ya mokili ya Isalaele, bongo bokoyeba solo ete Ngai nazali Yawe.
11 This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof. On the borders of Israel will I judge you,
Engumba oyo ekotikala te kozala nzungu mpo na bino, mpe bino bokotikala te kozala misuni kati na yango; nakosambisa bino na bandelo ya mokili ya Isalaele.
12 that ye may know that I am Jehovah, in whose statutes ye have not walked, and whose ordinances ye have not observed, but have done according to the manners of the nations, that are round about you.
Mpe bokoyeba solo ete Ngai nazali Yawe, pamba te bolandaki te bikateli na Ngai mpe botosaki te mibeko na Ngai, kasi bolandaki nde bizaleli ya bikolo ya bapaya oyo bazingeli bino. »
13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah, the son of Benaiah, died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah, wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
Nzokande, wana nazalaki nanu kosakola, Pelatia, mwana mobali ya Benaya, akufaki. Nakweyaki, elongi na ngai kino na mabele, mpe nagangaki na mongongo makasi: « Oh Nkolo Yawe! Okosilisa solo koboma penza ndambo ya bana ya Isalaele, oyo batikali na bomoi? »
14 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
15 Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy near kindred, and the whole house of Israel, are they to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem say, “Remove ye far from Jehovah; to us is the land given in possession!”
« Mwana na moto, ezali epai ya bato na yo, bandeko na yo ya makila mpe ndako mobimba ya Isalaele nde bato ya Yelusalemi balobaki: ‹ Bozala mosika na Yawe; mokili oyo epesamelaki biso lokola libula na biso. ›
16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Though I have cast them far off among the nations, and scattered them among the countries, yet I will be to them as a sanctuary for a short time in the countries whither they are come.
Yango wana, loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Atako nabenganaki bango kati na bikolo mpe napanzaki bango kati na mabota, kasi nazalaki mpo na bango lokola ndako ya bule kati na bikolo epai wapi bakendeki. ›
17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will gather you from the nations, and assemble you from the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Mpo na yango, loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosangisa bino wuta na bikolo, nakozongisa bino wuta na mikili epai wapi napanzaki bino mpe nakozongisela bino lisusu mokili ya Isalaele. ›
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away from thence all the detestable things thereof, and all the abominations thereof.
Bakozonga kuna mpe bakolongola bililingi na yango nyonso ya mbindo elongo na banzambe nyonso ya bikeko.
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them; and I will take out of them the heart of stone, and will give them a heart of flesh,
Nakopesa bango motema ya sika mpe nakotia kati na bango molimo ya sika; nakolongola kati na bango motema ya libanga mpe nakopesa bango motema ya mosuni,
20 that they may walk in my statutes, and observe my ordinances, and keep them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
mpo ete balanda bikateli na Ngai mpe batosa mibeko na Ngai. Bakozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Nzambe na bango.
21 But as for them whose heart walketh according to the pleasure of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their heads, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Kasi mpo na bato oyo bapesa mitema na bango epai ya bililingi ya mbindo mpe banzambe ya bikeko mpo na kokoba kosalela yango, nakofuta bango kolanda misala na bango, elobi Nkolo Yawe. »
22 Then did the cherubs lift up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Na tango wana, basheribe bafungolaki mapapu na bango mpe bapine ekomaki kobaluka na mipanzi na bango; boye nkembo na Nzambe ya Isalaele ezalaki na likolo na bango.
23 And the glory of Jehovah went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
Nkembo na Yawe emataki na likolo longwa kati na engumba mpe ekendeki kotelema na likolo ya ngomba oyo ezalaki na este ya Yelusalemi.
24 Then the spirit took me up, and brought me to Chaldaea, to them of the captivity, in vision, by the spirit of God. And the vision which I had seen went up from me.
Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai kati na Babiloni epai ya bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu. Makambo oyo ezalaki kosalema kati na emoniseli oyo Molimo ya Nzambe apesaki ngai. Mpe emoniseli oyo namonaki esilaki.
25 Then I spake to them of the captivity all the words of Jehovah which he had showed me.
Bongo nayebisaki bato oyo bazalaki na bowumbu makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alakisaki ngai.
