Zechariah 12
1 The oracle of the word of Yahweh, on Israel, —Declareth Yahweh—Stretching out the heavens, and founding the earth, and fashioning the spirit of man within him:
Liloba na Yawe. Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na tina na Isalaele. Yawe oyo atanda likolo mpe asala miboko ya mabele, Ye oyo atia Molimo na Ye kati na moto, alobi:
2 Lo! I am making Jerusalem a bowl of reeling to all the peoples, round about, —Moreover also, on Judah, shall it be in the siege against Jerusalem;
« Nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola kopo ya vino oyo elangwisaka bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na yango; bakozingela solo Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
3 And it shall come to pass, in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a lifting-stone, to all the peoples, all who seek to lift her, shall, cut themselves in pieces, —though all the nations of the earth, gather themselves together against her.
Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola libanga ya kilo liboso ya bikolo nyonso; moto nyonso oyo akoluka kotombola yango akozoka; mpe bikolo nyonso ekosangana mpo na kobundisa Yelusalemi.
4 In that day, Declareth Yahweh, I will smite every horse with terror, and his rider with madness, —and, over the house of Judah, will I keep opening mine eyes, and, every horse of the peoples, will I smite with blindness.
Na mokolo wana, nakobangisa bampunda nyonso mpe nakokomisa batambolisi na yango liboma, » elobi Yawe. « Nakosenzela libota ya Yuda, kasi nakoboma miso ya bampunda nyonso ya bikolo.
5 Then will the chiefs of Judah say in their hearts, —A strength unto me, [would be] the inhabitants of Jerusalem, in Yahweh of hosts, their God.
Boye, bakambi ya Yuda bakomilobela: ‹ Bato ya Yelusalemi bazali makasi mpo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azali Nzambe na bango. ›
6 In that day, will I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among sticks, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf, so shall they devour, on the right hand and on the left, all the peoples round about; so shall Jerusalem yet, be inhabited, in her own place, as Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa bakambi ya Yuda lokola moto kati na liboke ya bakoni, lokola koni ya moto na se ya liboke ya matiti ekawuka: bakozikisa bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na bango, ezala oyo ezali na ngambo ya loboko na bango ya mobali to ya mwasi. Kasi Yelusalemi ekotikala kaka na esika na yango.
7 But Yahweh will save the tents of Judah first, —lest the honour of the house of David, and the honour of the inhabitant of Jerusalem, should be magnified over Judah.
Yawe akobikisa liboso bandako ya kapo ya Yuda mpo ete lokumu ya libota ya Davidi mpe ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi eleka te lokumu ya Yuda.
8 In that day, will Yahweh, throw a covering, around the inhabitant of Jerusalem, so shall the tottering among them, in that day, become like David, —and the house of David—like God, like the messenger of Yahweh, before them.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akobatela bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpo ete bato ya bolembu kati na bango bakoma makasi lokola Davidi, mpe libota ya Davidi ekoma lokola Nzambe, lokola Anjelu ya Yawe, oyo azali kotambola liboso na bango.
9 And it shall come to pass, in that day, —That I will seek to destroy all the nations, that come against Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, nakobima mpo na koboma bikolo nyonso oyo ekobundisa Yelusalemi.
10 But I will pour out upon the house of David and upon the inhabitant of Jerusalem, the spirit of favour, and of supplications, and they will look unto me, whom they have pierced, —and will wail over him, as one waileth over an only son, and will make bitter outcry over him, as one maketh bitter outcry over a firstborn.
Nakosopa Molimo ya ngolu mpe ya mabondeli epai ya libota ya Davidi mpe epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi. Bakosembola miso na bango epai na Ngai oyo batobolaki. Bakosalela ye matanga ndenge kaka basalaka matanga ya mwana oyo abotama kaka ye moko; bakolela ye makasi ndenge balelaka mwana mobali ya liboso oyo asili kokufa.
11 In that day, will the wailing, be great, in Jerusalem, as the wailing of Hadadrimmon, in the valley of Megiddon;
Na mokolo wana, matanga kati na Yelusalemi ekozala monene lokola matanga ya Adadi-Rimoni na etando ya Megido.
12 So shall the land, wail, family by family, apart, —the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart, the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
Mokili mobimba ekosala matanga, etuka na etuka na esika na yango elongo na basi na yango: etuka ya libota ya Davidi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Natan elongo na basi na yango,
13 The family of the house of Levi, apart, and their wives apart, the family of Shimei, apart, —and their wives apart:
etuka ya libota ya Levi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Shimei elongo na basi na yango,
14 All the families that remain, family by family, apart, —and their wives, apart.
mpe bituka nyonso oyo etikali elongo na basi na yango.
