Daniel 9
1 In the first year of Darius son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, —who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans:
Na mobu ya liboso ya Dariusi, mwana mobali ya Kizerisesi, moko kati na bakitani ya bato ya Medi, oyo akomaki mokonzi ya mokili ya bato ya Babiloni;
2 in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived by the writings, —the number of the years, as to which the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah the prophet, to fulfil the desolations of Jerusalem, seventy years.
na mobu ya liboso ya bokonzi na ye, ngai, Daniele, nasosolaki, na nzela ya mikanda, kolanda liloba oyo Yawe apesaki na mosakoli Jeremi, ete kobebisama ya engumba Yelusalemi esengeli kosala mibu tuku sambo.
3 So I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek [him] by prayer, and supplication, —with fasting, and sackcloth and ashes;
Boye, nabalolaki elongi na ngai epai na Nkolo Nzambe mpo na kosambela mpe kobondela Ye, na kokila bilei, na kolata basaki mpe na komipakola putulu.
4 yea I prayed unto Yahweh my God, and made confession, —and said—I beseech thee, O Lord, the GOD great and to be revered, keeping the covenant and the lovingkindness, to them who love him, and to them who keep his commandments.
Nasambelaki Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, mpe natubelaki: « Nkolo, Nzambe monene mpe Nzambe ya nguya, Yo oyo obatelaka boyokani na Yo ya bolingo, elongo na bato nyonso oyo balingaka Yo mpe batosaka mibeko na Yo;
5 We have sinned and committed iniquity, and been guilty of lawlessness and been rebellious, —even departing from thy commandments, and from thy regulations;
solo, tosalaki masumu mpe mabe na miso na Yo, totambolaki lokola bato mabe mpe batomboki, topesaki mibeko mpe mitindo na Yo mokongo.
6 and have not hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spake in thy name, unto our kings, our rulers, and our fathers, —and unto all the people of the land.
Toyokelaki te basali na Yo, basakoli, oyo balobaki na Kombo na Yo epai ya bakonzi na biso, bakambi na biso, bakoko na biso mpe epai ya bato nyonso ya mokili.
7 To thee, O Lord, belongeth righteousness, but, to us, the shame of faces, as at this day, —to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, the near and the far off, throughout all the lands whither thou hast driven them, in their treachery, wherewith they had been treacherous against thee.
Nkolo, ozali sembo; kasi biso, lelo, tolatisami na soni: bato ya Yuda, bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele, ezala ba-oyo bazali pembeni to ba-oyo bazali mosika, kati na mikili nyonso epai wapi opanzaki biso mpo ete tozangaki boyengebene liboso na Yo!
8 O Yahweh, to us, belongeth the shame of faces, to our kings, to our rulers, and to our fathers, —in that we have sinned against thee.
Yawe, biso, bakonzi na biso, bakambi na biso mpe bakoko na biso, tolatisami na soni mpo ete tosalaki masumu liboso na Yo.
9 To the Lord our God, belong compassions, and forgivenesses, —for we have rebelled against him;
Kasi Yo Nkolo, Nzambe na biso, otonda na mawa mpe olimbisaka, atako biso, totombokelaki Yo.
10 and have not hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh our God, —to walk in his instructions which he set before us, through means of his servants the prophets;
Totosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na biso, to tobatelaki te mibeko oyo opesaki biso na nzela ya basali na Yo, basakoli.
11 yea, all Israel, have transgressed thy law, even going away, so as not to hearken unto thy voice, —therefore, were poured out upon us, the curse and the oath which had been written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we had sinned against him.
Bato nyonso ya Isalaele babukaki Mobeko na Yo, bapesaki yango mokongo mpe baboyaki kotosa Yo. Mpo na yango, bilakeli mabe mpe bitumbu oyo ekomama kati na Mobeko ya Moyize, mosali na Nzambe, esopanelaki biso, mpo ete tosalaki masumu liboso na Yo.
12 Thus hath he confirmed his words which he had spoken against us, and against our judges who had judged us, by bringing in upon us a great calamity, —as to which there had not been done, under all the heavens, as hath been done unto Jerusalem.
Wana otindeli biso pasi makasi oyo, okokisi penza maloba oyo olobaki mpo na kotelemela biso mpe bakambi na biso; mpe pasi oyo ekweyeli Yelusalemi etikala nanu kosalema te kati na mokili mobimba.
13 Even as written in the law of Moses, hath, all this calamity, come in upon us, —yet entreated we not the face of Yahweh our God, by turning away from our iniquities, and by getting intelligence in thy truth.
Kolanda ndenge kaka ekomama kati na Mobeko ya Moyize, pasi yango nyonso ekomeli biso; mpe tobondelaki te Yawe, Nzambe na biso; totikaki te kosala masumu mpe tomipesaki te mpo na kososola bosolo na Yo.
14 Therefore hath Yahweh, kept watch, for the calamity, and brought it in upon us, —for righteous is Yahweh our God concerning all his deeds which he hath done, seeing that we had not hearkened unto his voice.
Yango wana, Yawe, olandeli pasi yango kino okweyiseli biso yango; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na biso, ozali sembo kati na misala na Yo nyonso; kasi biso, totosaki Yo te.
15 Now, therefore, O Lord our God, who didst bring forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a firm hand, and didst make for thyself a name, as at this day, —we have sinned, we have been guilty of lawlessness.
Sik’oyo, Nkolo, Nzambe na biso, Yo oyo obimisa bato na Yo na Ejipito na nzela ya loboko na Yo ya nguya mpe Kombo na Yo ekenda sango kino na mokolo ya lelo, tosalaki masumu, tosalaki mabe!
16 O Lord! according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thine indignation turn away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain, —for, by reason of our sins, and by reason of the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people, have become a reproach, to all who are round about us.
Nkolo, nabondeli Yo, kolanda makambo nyonso oyo osalaka mpo na bosembo, kanda mpe kotomboka na Yo ezali kolongwa kati na engumba na Yo, Yelusalemi, ngomba na Yo ya bule! likolo ya masumu na biso mpe ya mabe ya bakoko na biso, Yelusalemi mpe bato na Yo bakomi eloko ya liseki na miso ya bato nyonso oyo bazingeli biso.
17 Now, therefore, hearken, O our God, unto the prayer of thy servant, and unto his supplications, and let thy face shine, upon thy sanctuary, that is desolate, —for the sake of thy servants, O Lord.
Sik’oyo, Nzambe na biso, yoka losambo mpe mabondeli na ngai, mosali na Yo! Mpo na lokumu na Yo, Nkolo, tala na miso ya ngolu Esika na Yo ya bule oyo ebebi!
18 Incline, O my God, thine ear, and hearken, open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city on which hath been called thy name; for, not on the ground of our own righteousnesses, are we causing our supplications to fall down before thee, but on the ground of thine abounding compassions.
Nzambe na ngai, defisa ngai litoyi na Yo mpe yoka ngai na bokebi! Fungola miso na Yo mpe mona kobebisama ya bisika na biso mpe ya engumba oyo mpo na bolamu na yango. Ngai, nazali kobelela Kombo na Yo! Ezali te mpo tozali sembo, kasi ezali nde mpo na mawa monene na Yo nde tozali kobondela Yo!
19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hearken and perform! Do not delay! For thine own sake, O my God, because, thine own name, hath been called, upon thy city, and upon thy people.
Nkolo, yoka! Nkolo, limbisa! Nkolo, yoka na bokebi! Sala, kowumela te, mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Yo moko, Nzambe na ngai! Pamba te ngai, nazali kobelela Kombo na Yo mpo na bolamu ya engumba mpe ya bato na Yo! »
20 And, while yet I was speaking, and praying, and confessing mine own sin, and the sin of my people Israel, —and causing my supplication to fall down before Yahweh my God, concerning the holy mountain of my God;
Wana nazalaki koloba mpe kosambela, kotubela masumu na ngai mpe ya bato na ngai, Isalaele, mpe kobondela Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, mpo na bolamu ya ngomba ya bule ya Nzambe na ngai;
21 while yet I was speaking in prayer, then, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the beginning, wearied with rapid flight, touched me, about the time of the evening present.
wana nazalaki nanu koloba, kati na losambo, Gabrieli, moto oyo namonaki liboso kati na emoniseli, ayaki epai na ngai na lombangu, na tango ya makabo ya pokwa.
22 Yea he came, and spake with me, —and said—O Daniel! now, have I come forth, to teach thee understanding.
Apesaki ngai malako, alobaki: « Daniele, nayei sik’oyo mpo na kopesa yo bososoli mpe mayele.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications, came forth a word, I, therefore, am arrived to tell, because, a man delighted in, thou art, —mark then the word, and have understanding in the revelation: —
Tango kaka obandaki kobondela, liloba moko ebimaki; mpe ngai, nayei koyebisa yo yango, pamba te ozali molingami ya Nzambe. Yamba liloba mpe sosola emoniseli:
24 Seventy weeks, have been divided concerning thy people and concerning thy holy city—to put an end to the transgression, and fill up the measure of sin, and put a propitiatory-covering over iniquity, and bring in the righteousness of ages, and affix a seal the vision and prophecy, and anoint the holy of holies.
Eleko moko ya baposo tuku sambo ekatamaki mpo na bato na yo mpe mpo na engumba na yo ya bule, mpo na kosilisa botomboki liboso ya Nzambe mpe kosukisa masumu, mpo na kolimbisa masumu mpe kokokisa bosembo ya libela, mpo na kokangisa emoniseli mpe mosakoli, mpe mpo na kobulisa Mosantu ya basantu.
25 Thou must know, then, and understand: From the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem—unto the Anointed One, the Prince, [shall be] seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks, —the broadway and the wall, shall again be built, even in the end of the times.
Yeba mpe sosola makambo oyo: wuta tango lisakoli ya kobongisa mpe ya kotonga lisusu Yelusalemi ebimaki kino koya ya mokonzi, Ye oyo azwaki epakolami, ekosala baposo sambo mpe baposo tuku motoba na mibale. Engumba ekotongama lisusu elongo na nzela mpe bamir na yango oyo batonga makasi.
26 And, after the sixty-two weeks, shall the Anointed One, be cut off, and have, nothing, —and, the city and the sanctuary, will one destroy with the Prince, and so will his own end come with an overwhelming flood, howbeit, up to the full end of the war, are decreed astounding things.
Sima na baposo tuku motoba na mibale, bakoboma Ye oyo azwaki epakolami, atako asalaki na ye mabe ata moko te. Bato ya mokambi oyo azali koya bakobebisa engumba mpe Esika ya bule, mpe suka na yango ekoya lokola mpela; bongo kino suka ya bitumba ekoma, kobebisama ekozala mpo ete mokano na yango esili kozwama.
27 And he will confirm a covenant to the many, for one week, —but, in the middle of the week, will cause sacrifice and present to cease, and, in his stead, [shall be] the horrid abomination that astoundeth, even till, a full end, and that a decreed one, shall be poured out on him that astoundeth.
Na poso moko, akosala boyokani moko elenda elongo na bato ebele; kasi na kati-kati ya poso yango, akosukisa bambeka mpe makabo. Likolo ya kobomba makambo ya nkele, mobebisi moko akobima kino tango libebi oyo ekatama mpo na mobebisi ekokokisama. »
