< Job 12 >
1 And he answered Job and he said.
Yobo azongisaki:
2 Truly that you [are the] people and with you it will die wisdom.
« Solo, bozali penza bato; tango bokokufa, bwanya mpe ekokufa elongo na bino!
3 Also [belongs] to me a heart - like you not [am] falling I more than you and with whom? [are] there not like these [things].
Kasi atako bongo, ngai mpe nazali mayele lokola bino, boleki ngai na eloko te. Nani ayebi te makambo wana nyonso?
4 A laughingstock to friend his - I am [one who] called to God and he answered him [is] a laughingstock a righteous [person] a blameless [person].
Nakomi eloko ya kotiola na miso ya baninga na ngai, ngai oyo nazali kobelela Nzambe mpo ete ayanola ngai; moto ya sembo, moto ya alima, ye nde akomi eloko ya kotiola!
5 [belongs] to Disaster contempt to [the] thought of [one] at ease a push [belongs] to [those who] are sliding of foot.
Bato ya esengo basekaka bato oyo bazali na pasi, babetaka bato oyo batepaka-tepaka kisambeti.

Bandako ya bato ya mobulu ezalaka na kimia, mpe bato oyo batombokelaka Nzambe, oyo bamonaka makasi na bango lokola Nzambe, bango nde babatelamaka.
7 And but ask please [the] animals so it may teach you and [the] bird[s] of the heavens so it may tell to you.
Kasi tuna nyama ya zamba, ekoteya yo; tuna ndeke ya likolo, ekolakisa yo;
8 Or complain to the earth so it may teach you and they may recount to you [the] fish of the sea.
loba na mabele, ekoteya yo; to tika ete mbisi ya ebale monene epesa yo sango.
9 Who? not does it know among all these for [the] hand of Yahweh it has done this.
Kati na yango, ekelamu nini eyebi te ete loboko ya Yawe nde esalaki nyonso wana?
10 [he] whom [is] in Hand his [the] life of every living [thing] and [the] breath of all flesh of humankind.
Bomoi ya bikelamu nyonso mpe pema ya bato nyonso ezali kati na loboko na Ye.
11 ¿ Not an ear words does it test and a palate food it tastes itself.
Boni, litoyi emekaka maloba te ndenge lolemo emekaka bilei?

Bwanya mpe makasi ezali epai ya Nzambe, toli mpe mayele ezali ya Ye.

Bakokoka te kotonga lisusu oyo Ye asili kobebisa, bakokoka kokangola te moto oyo Ye asili kokanga.
15 There! he holds back the waters so they may be dry and he lets loose them and they may devastate [the] earth.

16 [are] with Him strength and sound wisdom [belong] to him [one who] goes astray and [one who] leads astray.
Makasi mpe elonga ezali ya Ye; moto oyo basili kokosa mpe moto oyo akosi, bango mibale bazali ya Ye.
17 [he is] leading away Counselors barefoot and judges he makes look foolish.
Amemaka bapesi toli na bowumbu mpe akomisaka basambisi bato ya maboma;
18 [the] correction of Kings he loosens and he bound a loincloth on loins their.
afungolaka minyololo ya bakonzi mpe akangaka liputa na baloketo na bango;
19 [he is] leading away Priests barefoot and [people] long established he overturns.
amemaka Banganga-Nzambe na bowumbu mpe akweyisaka bato oyo bavanda kala na bokonzi;

abimisaka na pwasa, makambo ya sekele, makambo oyo ezali kati na molili, mpe abimisaka na pole bililingi oyo eleki mwindo;
23 [he is] making great the Nations and he destroyed them [he is] spreading out the nations and he led them.
atombolaka bikolo mpe abebisaka yango, akomisaka minene mindelo ya bikolo mpe apanzaka yango;
24 [he is] removing [the] heart of [the] leaders of [the] people of The earth and he made wander them in a wasteland not a path.
alongolaka makanisi ya bakonzi ya bikolo mpe asalaka ete batambola kati na bisobe oyo ezanga nzela
25 They grope darkness and not light and he made wander them like drunkard.
mpo ete batepatepa kati na molili, na kozanga pole; mpe asalaka ete batepatepa lokola moto alangwe masanga.
