Ezekiel 21
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop [thy word] toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
« Mwana na moto, talisa elongi na yo na ngambo ya Yelusalemi, loba mpo na kotelemela bisika ya bule mpe sakola mpo na kotelemela Isalaele.
3 and say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.
Loba na mokili ya Isalaele: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Natombokeli yo, nakobimisa mopanga na Ngai na ebombelo na yango mpe nakoboma bato, kati na mokili na yo, ezala bato ya sembo to bato mabe.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:
Mpo ete nakoboma bato ya sembo mpe ya mabe, mopanga na Ngai ekobima na ebombelo na yango mpo na koboma moto nyonso, wuta na sude kino na nor.
5 and all flesh shall know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.
Boye, bato nyonso bakososola ete Ngai Yawe nde nabimisi mopanga na Ngai wuta na ebombelo na yango, mpe ekozonga lisusu te. ›
6 Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.
Yango wana, mwana na moto, lela! Kende kolela liboso na bango, na motema oyo ebukani mpe ya mawa.
7 And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt say, Because of the tidings, for it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.
Soki batuni yo: ‹ Mpo na nini ozali kolela? › Okozongisela bango: ‹ Ezali mpo na sango oyo ezali koya. › Mitema mpe maboko nyonso ekolemba lokola mayi, bato nyonso bakomitungisa mpe mabolongo nyonso ekolenga. Sango yango ezali koya; solo ekosalema, elobi Nkolo Yawe! »
8 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
9 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished:
« Mwana na moto, sakola. Loba: Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Mopanga, mopanga! Bangalisi mpe bapelisi yango!
10 it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? the rod of my son, it contemneth every tree.
Bapelisi yango mpo na koboma, bangalisi yango mpo na kobimisa mikalikali! Boni, tosepela kaka na lingenda ya bokonzi ya mwana na ngai ya mobali? Mopanga ya mwana na ngai esambwisaka banzete nyonso.
11 And it is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yea, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
Mopanga epesami mpo ete bangalisa yango, mpo ete basimba yango na loboko; bangalisi yango mpe bapelisi yango mpo ete mobomi asalela yango.
12 Cry and howl, son of man: for it is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people: smite therefore upon thy thigh.
Mwana na moto, ganga mpe lela makasi! Pamba te mopanga ebimi mpo na koboma bato na ngai, mpo na koboma bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele; babongisami mpo na kokufa na mopanga elongo na bato na ngai. Yango wana, beta tolo na yo!
13 For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that contemneth shall be no more? saith the Lord GOD.
Komekama ekoya penza; mpe likambo nini ekosalema soki lingenda ya bokonzi, oyo mopanga esili kotiola, etikali lisusu te, elobi Nkolo Yawe? ›
14 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thine hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one that is deadly wounded, which entereth into their chambers.
Boye mwana na moto, sakola mpe beta maboko na yo! Tika ete mopanga eboma mbala mibale to mbala misato! Ezali mopanga oyo ebomaka; ezali solo mopanga oyo ebomaka mingi, mopanga oyo ezingeli bango bisika nyonso.
15 I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
Mpo ete mitema na bango ekoka kolenga mpe bakufi bazala ebele, nasili kotia mopanga oyo ebomaka na bikuke nyonso ya bingumba na bango. Tala, bangalisi yango mpo ete epela lokola mikalikali; basimbi yango mpo na koboma!
16 Gather thee together, go to the right; set thyself in array, go to the left; whithersoever thy face is set.
Oh mopanga, beta na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe beta na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi; beta na esika nyonso oyo minu na yo etali!
17 I will also smite mine hands together, and I will satisfy my fury: I the LORD have spoken it.
Ngai mpe, nakobeta maboko na Ngai; mpe kanda na Ngai ya makasi ekokita. Ngai Yawe nde nalobi. »
18 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
19 Also, thou son of man, appoint thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they twain shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
« Mwana na moto, sala banzela mibale oyo mopanga ya mokonzi ya Babiloni ekoki kolekela; banzela nyonso mibale ebimela na mokili moko. Na ekotelo ya nzela moko na moko, tia elembo oyo ekolakisa nzela ya engumba.
20 Thou shalt appoint a way, for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.
Sala nzela moko mpo ete mopanga ekoma kino na Raba, engumba ya bato ya Amoni, mpe nzela mosusu mpo ete mopanga ekoma kino na Yelusalemi, engumba batonga makasi, kati na Yuda.
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows to and fro, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.
Pamba te mokonzi ya Babiloni akotelema na esika oyo banzela mibale ekutana mpo na kosala makambo ya soloka, akobeta zeke na koningisa makonga ya mike, akotuna banzambe na ye ya bikeko mpe akotala mabale ya banyama.
22 In his right hand was the divination [for] Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounts, to build forts.
Zeke oyo ekotalisa Yelusalemi ezali kati na loboko na ye ya mobali: kuna na Yelusalemi, akopesa mitindo ya koboma, akobeta mololo ya bitumba, akotia bashar ya bitumba liboso ya bikuke ya engumba, akotonga bamir ya zelo mpe akotimola mabulu ya kobombamela.
23 And it shall be unto them as a vain divination in their sight, which have sworn oaths unto them: but he bringeth iniquity to remembrance, that they may be taken.
Kasi lokola basilaki kolapa ndayi ete bakotosa ye, bavandi ya Yelusalemi bakomona yango lokola bimoniseli ya pamba mpe ya lokuta. Kasi mokonzi ya Babiloni akosala ete bakanisa lisusu mabe na bango, mpe akomema bango na bowumbu.
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are discovered, so that in all your doings your sins do appear; because that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: ‹ Lokola mabe na bino ezongeli bino na makanisi, lokola bolakisi Ngai na polele botomboki na bino mpe bomonisi masumu na bino kati na misala na bino nyonso; lokola bosali bongo, bokokende na bowumbu.
25 And thou, O deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end;
Yo mokambi ya Isalaele, moto ya mbindo mpe moto mabe, mikolo ezali koya, tango na yo ya etumbu, mpo na kosukisa mabe na yo!
26 thus saith the Lord GOD: Remove the mitre, and take off the crown: this [shall be] no more the same: exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high.
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Longola ye eteni ya elamba ya moto, longola ye motole! Makambo ekobongwana, ekozala lisusu te ndenge ezalaki liboso! Bato oyo bakitisama bakotombwama, mpe ba-oyo batombwama bakokitisama.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it [him].
Libebi! Libebi! Nakokomisa yango libebi. Ekotikala kobonga lisusu te kino tango moto oyo akopesa etumbu, oyo nakopesa ye makoki mpo na yango, akoya. ›
28 And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say thou, A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning:
Mpe yo, mwana na moto, sakola mpe loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi na tina na bato ya Amoni mpe mafinga na bango: Mopanga, babimisi mopanga mpo na koboma, bapelisi yango mpo na koboma mpe mpo na kongenga lokola mikalikali!
29 whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine lies unto thee, to lay thee upon the necks of the wicked that are deadly wounded, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Atako bapesaki yo bimoniseli mpe masakoli ya lokuta, mopanga ekokata bakingo ya bato ya mbindo oyo mokolo ya suka mpo na mabe na bango esili kokoka.
30 Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy birth, will I judge thee.
Zongisa mopanga na ebombelo na yango. Nakosambisa yo na esika oyo okelamaki, na mokili ya bakoko na yo.
31 And I will pour out mine indignation upon thee; I will blow upon thee with the fire of my wrath: and I will deliver thee into the hand of brutish men, skilful to destroy.
Nakokitisela yo kanda na Ngai ya makasi mpe nakofula yo moto ya kanda na Ngai; bongo nakokaba yo na maboko ya bato ya mobulu oyo babebisaka.
32 Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land; thou shalt be no more remembered: for I the LORD have spoken it.
Okozika na moto, makila na yo ekopanzana kaka na mokili na yo mpe bakokanisa yo lisusu te; pamba te Ngai Yawe nde nalobi. › »
