< Jeremiah 29 >

1 And these [are] [the] words of the letter which he sent Jeremiah the prophet from Jerusalem to [the] remainder of [the] elders of the exile[s] and to the priests and to the prophets and to all the people which he had taken into exile Nebuchadnezzar from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
Tala makomi ya mokanda oyo mosakoli Jeremi atindaki, wuta na Yelusalemi, epai ya bakambi oyo batikalaki kati na bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu, epai ya Banganga-Nzambe, epai ya basakoli mpe epai ya bato nyonso oyo Nabukodonozori amemaki na bowumbu, na Babiloni wuta na Yelusalemi.
2 After went out Jeconiah the king and the queen-mother and the court-officials [the] officials of Judah and Jerusalem and the craftsman and the smith from Jerusalem.
Mokanda yango etindamaki sima na bato oyo kokende na bawumbu longwa na Yelusalemi: mokonzi Yekonia, mama ya mokonzi, bakalaka na ye ya lokumu, bakambi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi, bato oyo balambaka bibende na moto mpe bato ya misala ya maboko.
3 By [the] hand of Eleasah [the] son of Shaphan and Gemariah [the] son of Hilkiah whom he sent Zedekiah [the] king of Judah to Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon Babylon towards saying.
Apesaki mokanda yango na maboko ya Eleasa, mwana mobali ya Shafani; mpe na maboko ya Gemaria, mwana mobali ya Ilikia. Ezali bango nde Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, atindaki na Babiloni epai ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni. Mokanda yango elobaki boye:
4 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel to all the exile[s] whom I sent into exile from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi epai ya bato nyonso oyo namemaki na bowumbu, na Babiloni wuta na Yelusalemi:
5 Build houses and dwell and plant gardens and eat produce their.
« Botonga bandako mpe bovanda kuna; bolona banzete mpe bolia mbuma na yango;
6 Take wives and father sons and daughters and take for sons your wives and daughters your give to husbands so they may bear sons and daughters and multiply there and may not you diminish.
bobalana, bobota bana mibali mpe bana basi, bolukela bana na bino ya mibali basi mpe bobalisa bana na bino ya basi, mpo ete bango mpe babota bana mibali mpe bana basi. Bobotana kuna mpe bokoma ebele, mpe botika te ete motango na bino ekita.
7 And seek [the] welfare of the city where I have sent into exile you there towards and pray for it to Yahweh for in welfare its it will belong to you welfare.
Boluka kimia mpe bolamu ya engumba epai wapi namemaki bino na bowumbu; bobondela Yawe mpo na yango, pamba te soki yango ebongi, bino mpe bokozala malamu. »
8 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel may not they deceive you prophets your who [are] in midst your and diviners your and may not you listen to dreams your which you [are] dreaming.
Solo, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Bomitika te ete basakoli mpe bato ya soloka oyo bazali kati na bino bakosa bino: bondimela te bato oyo bazali kolimbolela bino bandoto.
9 For with falsehood they [are] prophesying to you in name my not I sent them [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Pamba te bazali nde kosakola makambo ya lokuta na Kombo na Ngai; natindi bango te, » elobi Yawe.
10 That thus he says Yahweh if to [the] mouth will be completed for Babylon seventy year[s] I will give attention to you and I will carry out on you word my good by bringing back you to the place this.
Kasi tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Tango mibu tuku sambo ekokoka mpo na Babiloni, nakoya epai na bino mpe nakokokisa elaka na Ngai ya ngolu mpo na kozongisa bino na esika oyo.
11 For I I know the plans which I [am] planning on you [the] utterance of Yahweh plans of well-being and not for harm to give to you a future and a hope.
Pamba te nayebi malamu mabongisi oyo nasalaki mpo na bino, » elobi Yawe, « mabongisi ya kosalela bino bolamu, kasi ya konyokola bino te, mabongisi mpo na kopesa bino elikya mpe bomoi malamu.
12 And you will call on me and you will come and you will pray to me and I will listen to you.
Boye bokobelela Ngai, bokoya epai na Ngai mpe bokobondela Ngai; mpe Ngai nakoyoka bino.
13 And you will seek me and you will find [me] if you will seek me with all heart your.
Bokoluka Ngai mpe bokomona Ngai, soki boluki Ngai na motema na bino mobimba.
14 And I will let myself be found by you [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will turn back (captivity your *Q(k)*) and I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I banished you there [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will bring back you to the place where I sent into exile you from there.
Nakomimonisa epai na bino, » elobi Yawe, « mpe nakozongisa bino longwa na bowumbu. Nakosangisa bino longwa na bikolo nyonso mpe na bisika nyonso epai wapi nabenganaki bino, » elobi Yawe, « nakozongisa bino na esika oyo namemelaki bino na bowumbu. »
15 For you have said he has raised up for us Yahweh prophets Babylon.
Solo, bokoki koloba: « Yawe abimisi basakoli kati na biso awa na Babiloni! »
16 For thus - he says Yahweh concerning the king who sits to [the] throne of David and concerning all the people which dwells in the city this countrymen your who not they went out with you in the exile.
Kasi tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na tina na mokonzi oyo avandi na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi, na tina na bavandi nyonso ya engumba oyo, mpe na tina na bandeko na bino oyo bakendeki te na bowumbu elongo na bino;
17 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to send on them the sword famine and pestilence and I will make them like figs rotten which not they will be eaten from badness.
tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Nakotindela bango mopanga, nzala makasi mpe bokono oyo ebomaka, mpe nakokomisa bango lokola mbuma ya figi oyo epola, oyo moto ata moko te akokoka kolia.
18 And I will pursue after them with the sword with famine and with pestilence and I will make them (into a terror *Q(K)*) to all - [the] kingdoms of the earth into a curse and into a waste and into a hissing and into a reproach among all the nations where I have banished them there.
Nakolanda bango na mopanga, na nzala makasi mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka; mpe na miso ya bikolo nyonso ya mabele, nakokomisa bango eloko ya koyoka somo, ndakisa mpo na koloba maloba ya bosoloka, eloko ya lisuma, eloko ya kobanga mpe ya kotiola kati na bikolo nyonso epai wapi nakobengana bango.
19 Because that not they listened to words my [the] utterance of Yahweh [those] whom I sent to them servants my the prophets rising early and sending and not you listened [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Pamba te bayokaki maloba na Ngai te, » elobi Yawe, « maloba oyo nazalaki kotindela bango tango na tango na nzela ya basali na Ngai, basakoli. Mpe bino bato oyo bokendeki na bowumbu, bino mpe boyokaki te, » elobi Yawe.
20 And you hear [the] word of Yahweh O all the exile[s] whom I sent from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
Yango wana, boyoka Liloba na Yawe, bino bawumbu nyonso oyo natindaki na Babiloni longwa na Yelusalemi.
21 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel concerning Ahab [the] son of Kolaiah and to Zedekiah [the] son of Maaseiah who are prophesying to you in name my falsehood here I - [am] about to give them in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and he will strike down them to eyes your.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na Akabi, mwana mobali ya Kolaya, mpe na tina na Sedesiasi, mwana mobali ya Maaseya, oyo bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta epai na bino, na Kombo na Ngai: « Nakokaba bango na maboko ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe akoboma bango na miso na bino.
22 And it will be taken from them a curse by all [the] exile[s] of Judah who [are] in Babylon saying may he make you Yahweh like Zedekiah and like Ahab whom he roasted them [the] king of Babylon in the fire.
Likolo na bango, bawumbu nyonso oyo bawutaki na Yuda, bongo bazali na Babiloni, bakosalela elakeli mabe oyo: ‹ Tika ete Yawe asala bino ndenge asalaki Sedesiasi mpe Akabi, oyo mokonzi ya Babiloni atumbaki na moto! ›
23 Because that they did folly in Israel and they committed adultery [the] wives of neighbors their and they spoke a word in name my falsehood which not I commanded them and I ([am he] who knows *Q(K)*) and a witness [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Pamba te basalaki kati na Isalaele ekobo elongo na basi ya baninga na bango, bapaya, mpe balobaki lokuta na Kombo na Ngai, nzokande Ngai natindaki bango te kosala bongo. Nayebi yango malamu, mpe Ngai moko nazali Motatoli na yango, » elobi Yawe.
24 And to Shemaiah the Nehelamite you will say saying.
Yebisa Shemaya, moto ya Nekelami, maloba oyo:
25 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel saying because that you you sent in own name your letters to all the people which [is] in Jerusalem and to Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest and to all the priests saying.
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Otindaki mikanda na kombo na yo moko epai ya bato nyonso ya Yelusalemi, epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Sofoni, mwana mobali ya Maaseya, mpe epai ya Banganga-Nzambe. Olobaki na Sofoni:
26 Yahweh he has made you priest in place of Jehoiada the priest to be overseers [the] house of Yahweh to every person [who] is mad and [who] prophesies and you will put him into the stock[s] and into the iron collar.
‹ Yawe aponaki yo Nganga-Nzambe na esika ya Yeoyada mpo ete obatela Tempelo ya Yawe. Osengelaki kobwaka na boloko mpe kokanga bibende na makolo, bato pamba oyo bazali komimona lokola basakoli.
27 And therefore why? not have you rebuked Jeremiah the Anathothite who is prophesying to you.
Boye, mpo na nini opamelaki te mosakoli Jeremi, moto ya Anatoti, oyo azali komimona lokola mosakoli kati na bino?
28 For since he has sent to us Babylon saying [will be] a long [time] it build houses and dwell and plant gardens and eat produce their.
Atindelaki biso sango oyo kati na Babiloni: Bowumbu na bino ekowumela tango molayi. Yango wana, botonga bandako mpe bovanda kuna, bolona bilanga mpe bolia mbuma na yango. › »
29 And he read aloud Zephaniah the priest the letter this in [the] ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
Nzokande, Nganga-Nzambe Sofoni atangisaki mosakoli Jeremi mokanda yango.
30 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah saying.
Boye, Yawe alobaki na Jeremi:
31 Send to all the exile[s] saying thus he says Yahweh concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite because that he has prophesied to you Shemaiah and I not I sent him and he has made rely you on falsehood.
« Tinda sango oyo epai ya bawumbu nyonso: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na tina na Shemaya, moto ya Nekelami: Lokola Shemaya asakolaki makambo ya lokuta epai na bino, nzokande natindaki ye te, mpe amemi bino na kotia motema na lokuta,
32 Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to visit [judgment] on Shemaiah the Nehelamite and on offspring his not he will belong to him anyone - dwelling - in among the people this and not he will look on the good which I [will be] doing for people my [the] utterance of Yahweh for rebellion he has spoken on Yahweh.
tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Solo, nakopesa Shemaya, moto ya Nekelami, etumbu elongo na bakitani na ye. Kati na bato na ye, moko te akotikala, mpe akotikala komona te bolamu oyo nakosala epai ya bato na Ngai, elobi Yawe, pamba te atindiki bato na Ngai kotombokela Ngai. › »
