< Jeremiah 28 >

1 And it came to pass in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year in the fifth month, that Hananiah son of Azzur the prophet who was of Gibeon, spake unto me, in the house of Yahweh, before the eyes of the priests and all the people, saying:
Kaka na mobu wana, mobu ya minei, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na sanza ya mitano, mosakoli Anania, mwana mobali ya Azuri, moto ya mboka Gabaoni, alobaki na ngai kati na Tempelo ya Yawe na miso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya bato nyonso:
2 Thus speaketh Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel saying, —I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon:
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Nakobuka ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni.
3 within the space of two years, I am bringing back into this place, all the vessels of the house of Yahweh, —which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, hath taken away from this place, and carried into Babylon.
Etikali kaka mibu mibale; nakozongisa na esika oyo bisalelo nyonso ya Tempelo ya Yawe, oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, azwaki na esika oyo mpe amemaki na Babiloni.
4 Jeconiah also, son of Jehoiakim king of Judah with all the captives of Judah who have entered Babylon, am I bringing back into this place Declareth Yahweh, —for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
Nakozongisa lisusu na esika oyo: Yekonia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpe bato nyonso oyo, wuta na Yuda, bakendeki na bowumbu, na Babiloni, › elobi Yawe, ‹ pamba te nakobuka ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni. › »
5 Then said Jeremiah the prophet, unto Hananiah the prophet, in the presence of the priests and in the presence of all the people, who were standing in the house of Yahweh,
Bongo Mosakoli Jeremi azongiselaki mosakoli Anania eyano na miso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya bato nyonso oyo batelemaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
6 then said Jeremiah the prophet, —Amen! So, may Yahweh do! Yahweh establish thy words which thou hast prophesied by bringing back the vessels of the house of Yahweh and all them of the captivity, from Babylon unto this place.
Mosakoli Jeremi alobaki: « Amen! Tika ete Yawe asala bongo! Tika ete Yawe akokisa maloba oyo osili kosakola, azongisa na esika oyo, wuta na Babiloni, bisalelo ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bato nyonso oyo bakendeki na bowumbu!
7 Nevertheless hear thou I pray thee, this word, which I am speaking in thine ears, —and in the ears of all the people:
Nzokande, yoka maloba oyo nalingi koloba na yo mpe na bato nyonso:
8 The prophets who were before me and before thee, from age-past times when they prophesied against many lands and concerning great kingdoms, of war and of calamity and of pestilence,
Wuta kala, basakoli oyo basakolaki liboso ete yo mpe ngai tozala, basakolaki bitumba, pasi mpe bokono oyo ebomaka, mpo na kotelemela bikolo ebele mpe mikili ya makasi;
9 the prophet who prophesied of peace when the word of the prophet was fulfilled, then was known the prophet, whom Yahweh had sent in truth.
kasi soki mosakoli asakoli kimia, akondimama ete azali solo mosakoli oyo Yawe atindi masakoli na ye ekokisami. »
10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, —and brake it.
Bongo mosakoli Anania alongolaki ekangiseli na kingo ya mosakoli Jeremi mpe abukaki yango.
11 And Hananiah spake before the eyes of all the people saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, —In like manner, will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, within the space of two years, from off the neck of all the nations, And Jeremiah the prophet went his way.
Anania alobaki liboso ya bato nyonso: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Liboso ete mibu mibale ekoka, nakobuka ndenge wana ekangiseli ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, na kingo ya bikolo nyonso. › » Mpe mosakoli Jeremi akendeki na ye.
12 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
Sima na mosakoli Anania kobuka ekangiseli na kingo ya mosakoli Jeremi, Yawe alobaki na Jeremi:
13 Go and speak unto Hananiah saying—Thus, saith Yahweh, Yokes of wood, thou hast broken, —But thou shalt make, in their stead yokes of iron!
« Kende koloba na Anania: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Solo, obuki ekangiseli ya banzete; kasi na esika na yango, okolata nde ekangiseli ya ebende.
14 For, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, —A yoke of iron, have I put upon the neck of all these nations to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they shall serve him, Moreover also the wild beast of the field, have I given to him.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Nasili kotia ekangiseli ya ebende na kingo ya bikolo nyonso mpo ete esalela Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe ekosalela ye solo. Nakopesa ye bokonzi ata likolo ya banyama ya zamba. › »
15 Then said Jeremiah the prophet unto Hananiah the prophet, —Hear I pray thee, Hananiah: Yahweh hath not sent thee, Thou, therefore hast caused this people to trust in falsehood!
Bongo mosakoli Jeremi alobaki lisusu na mosakoli Anania: « Anania, yoka! Yawe atindi yo te; mpe ozali kotindika bato oyo na kotia motema na makambo ya lokuta!
16 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! driving thee away from off the face of the ground, —This year, art thou to die, Because revolt, hast thou spoken against Yahweh.
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nakolongola yo na mokili oyo, okokufa kaka na mobu oyo; pamba te otindiki bato na kotombokela Yawe. › »
17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year, in the seventh month.
Kaka na mobu wana, na sanza ya sambo, mosakoli Anania akufaki.
