Ezekiel 23
1 Yahweh said to me,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
2 “You human, [listen to this parable about Jerusalem and Samaria]. Once there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
« Mwana na moto, ezalaki na basi mibale, bana ya mama moko.
3 They lived in Egypt. And from the time that they were young women, they became prostitutes. In that land, [men] fondled their breasts and caressed their bosoms [DOU].
Bakomaki na kindumba mpe bamipesaki na yango wuta bolenge na bango, na Ejipito. Kuna, bato bazalaki kosakana na mabele na bango mpe kosimbasimba tolo na bango ya bolenge.
4 The older [sister] was Oholah, and her [younger] sister was Oholibah. [It was as though] they became my [wives. Later] they gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents Jerusalem.
Oyo ya kulutu, kombo na ye ezalaki Ohola; mpe oyo ya leki, kombo na ye ezalaki Oholiba: bazalaki basi na Ngai mpe babotaki bana mibali mpe bana basi. Ohola azali Samari mpe Oholiba azali Yelusalemi.
5 Oholah acted like a prostitute while she was [still] my wife. She desired to have sex with those she loved—soldiers from Assyria.
Ohola amipesaki na kindumba tango azalaki nanu ya Ngai mpe akufelaki kolinga bamakangu na ye, bato ya Asiri, bilombe ya bitumba
6 [Some of them] were army officers and commanders. They wore [beautiful] blue [uniforms. They were] all handsome young men. Some of them rode horses.
oyo balataka bilamba ya lokumu ya langi ya ble, bayangeli mpe bakonzi ya basoda; bango nyonso bazalaki bilenge mibali ya kitoko oyo bayebaki malamu kotambola na bampunda.
7 She acted like a prostitute toward all the important Assyrian officials, and became unacceptable to me by worshiping all the idols of the men she wanted to have sex with.
Ye moko alakisaki polele kindumba na ye epai ya bato ya lokumu ya Asiri mpe amikomisaki mbindo na nzela ya banzambe ya bikeko nyonso, ya moto nyonso oyo ye azalaki kokufela na bolingo.
8 When she was a young woman in Egypt, she started being a prostitute, and [young] men caressed her breasts and had sex with her; and when she became older, she did not quit acting like a prostitute.
Atikaki te kindumba na ye oyo abandaki na Ejipito, oyo na tango ya bolenge na ye, mibali bazalaki kosangisa na ye nzoto, kosimbasimba tolo na ye ya bolenge mpe kosilisa baposa na bango ya nzoto epai na ye.
9 So I allowed the Assyrian soldiers, whom she wanted to have sex with, to capture her.
Yango wana nakabaki ye na maboko ya bamakangu na ye, bato ya Asiri, oyo azalaki kokufela.
10 They stripped all her clothes off her. They took away her sons and daughters. And then they killed her with a sword. [Other] women started talking about what had happened to her, about how she had been punished.
Batikaki ye bolumbu, bakendeki na bana na ye ya mibali mpe ya basi, mpe babomaki ye na mopanga. Akomaki lokola ndakisa mpo na basi mosusu, pamba te azwaki etumbu.
11 [younger] sister Oholibah saw those [that happened to Oholah], but she was a prostitute, and she desired to have sex with men more than [older] sister had desired.
Ndeko na ye ya mwasi, Oholiba, amonaki makambo oyo nyonso; kasi lokola posa ya kindumba elataki ye makasi, asalaki mobulu koleka kutu ndeko na ye ya mwasi.
12 Oholibah [also] wanted to have sex with the Assyrian soldiers. [Some of them were] army officers and commanders. [They all] wore beautiful blue uniforms. They were all handsome young men. [Some of] them rode horses.
Ye mpe akufelaki kolinga mibali ya Asiri: bayangeli, bakonzi ya basoda, basoda ya mpiko oyo balataka kitoko mpe batambolaka malamu likolo ya bampunda; bango nyonso bazalaki bilenge mibali kitoko.
13 I saw what she did that caused her to became unacceptable to me, just like [older] sister.
Namonaki ete ye mpe amikomisaki mbindo: bango mibale balandaki kaka nzela moko.
14 But she did [even] worse things. She saw drawings of men from Babylonia on the walls, painted in red.
Nzokande, ye kutu akendeki mosika koleka na kindumba na ye; amonaki bililingi ya mibali na mir, bililingi ya bato ya Chalide, oyo basala na langi ya motane;
15 The [in the drawings] had belts around their waists and long turbans on their heads. They all resembled officers from Babylonia [DOU] [who rode in chariots].
mibali yango balataki mikaba na baloketo na bango mpe bitendi ya balangi ebele na mito na bango. Bango nyonso bazalaki na lolenge ya bakonzi ya basoda ya Babiloni, oyo babotama na mokili na Chalide.
16 As soon as she saw those drawings, she wanted to have sex with those men, and she sent messages to them in Babylonia.
Tango kaka amonaki bango, akufelaki bango na bolingo mpe atindaki bantoma epai na bango, na mokili ya Chalide.
17 Then the soldiers from Babylonia came to her, they lay in bed with her, and they had sex with her. Then she became disgusted with them and turned away from them.
Bato ya Babiloni bayaki epai na ye kino na mbeto na ye oyo asalelaka bolingo mpe bakomisaki ye mbindo na nzela ya kindumba na bango. Sima na bango kokomisa ye mbindo, ayinaki bango.
18 But when she continued to openly/boldly act like a prostitute [DOU], I became disgusted with her, and I rejected her like I had rejected [older] sister.
Tango alakisaki polele kindumba na ye mpe atalisaki bolumbu na ye, nayinaki ye, ndenge kaka nayinaki ndeko na ye ya mwasi.
19 But she became even more immoral, as she remembered when she was a young woman who was a prostitute in Egypt.
Nzokande, azalaki se kobakisa kindumba na ye tango azalaki kokanisa mikolo ya bolenge na ye, oyo azalaki kosala kindumba, na Ejipito.
20 There she wanted to have sex with those who loved her, whose genitals were [very long], like [SIM] those of donkeys, and whose sexual emissions were huge, [like] those of horses.
Kuna, akufelaki kolinga bamakangu na ye, oyo nzoto na bango ya mibali ezalaka lokola nzoto ya mibali ya ane mpe oyo bazalaka na nguya ya kosangisa nzoto lokola mpunda.
21 So she desired to be immoral like she was when she was young, when men in Egypt caressed her bosom and fondled her breasts.”
Boye, okanisaki lisusu kindumba na yo, oyo ozalaki kosala na bolenge tango mibali ya Ejipito bazalaki kosakana na mabele na yo mpe kosimbasimba tolo na yo ya bolenge.
22 “[represents you people of Jerusalem]. Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I will cause those [soldiers] who loved you but whom you turned away from because you became disgusted with them, to be angry with you. I will cause them to come and attack you from every side—
Yango wana, Oholiba, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosala ete bamakangu na yo, ba-oyo yo oboyaki, babalukela yo; mpe nakosala lisusu ete babimela yo na bangambo nyonso:
23 soldiers from Babylon and all the other places in Babylonia, [their allies] from Pekod and Shoa and [regions], and all the army of Assyria. [Yes], all of them are handsome young men, army officers and commanders, officers who ride in chariots, all riding on horses.
mibali ya Babiloni mpe mibali nyonso ya Chalide, ya Pekodi, ya Shoa mpe ya Koa elongo na mibali nyonso ya Asiri, bilenge mibali kitoko. Bango nyonso bazalaki bayangeli mpe bakonzi ya basoda, basoda ya mpiko oyo batambolaka malamu likolo ya bampunda mpe bakonzi ya basoda ya lokumu; bango nyonso batambolaka likolo ya bampunda.
24 Their huge army will attack you with weapons, riding in chariots and pulling wagons [that will carry their army supplies]. They will surround you, carrying large and small shields, and wearing helmets. I will allow them to capture you and punish you in the way that they [always] [their enemies].
Bakoya kobundisa yo na bibundeli, na bampunda mpe na bashar na yango elongo na bato ebele; bakomibongisa mpo na kobundisa yo na bangambo nyonso, na banguba minene mpe ya mike, mpe na bikoti ya basoda. Nakokaba yo na maboko na bango mpo ete bapesa yo etumbu mpe bakosambisa yo kolanda mibeko na bango.
25 Because I am very angry with you, I will cause them to act [very] furiously toward you. They will cut off your noses and your ears. Then, those who are still alive, they will kill with their swords. They will take away your sons and daughters, and a fire will burn up those who remain alive.
Nakotelemela yo na kanda na Ngai mpe bakosala yo mabe, na mitema ya kanda penza. Bakokata yo zolo mpe matoyi; bongo bato na yo, oyo bakotikala bakokufa na mopanga. Bakokende na bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi, bongo ba-oyo bakotikala bakokufa na moto.
26 They will strip off your clothes and your fine jewelry and take them away.
Bakobotola yo lisusu bilamba na yo mpe babiju na yo ya talo.
27 In that way, I will stop all the immoral behavior that began when you became a prostitute in Egypt. You will no longer desire to do those things, or think [what you did in] Egypt.’
Nakosukisa makambo ya soni mpe kindumba na yo, oyo obandaki na Ejipito. Okotombola lisusu miso na yo te mpo na komona bato wana mpe okotikala lisusu kokanisa Ejipito te.
28 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I am about to allow those whom you hate, those you became disgusted with and turned away from, to capture you.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakomi pene ya kokaba yo na maboko ya bato oyo oyinaka, bato oyo osepelaka lisusu na bango te.
29 They will be cruel and take away everything that you have worked hard to acquire. They will leave you completely naked [DOU], and everyone will see that you truly are a prostitute.
Bato yango bakoyina yo, bakosala yo mabe penza mpe bakobotola yo mbuma ya mosala na yo; bakolongola yo bilamba mpe okotikala bolumbu, bongo soni ya kindumba na yo ekobima polele. Kindumba mpe ekobo na yo
30 It is because of what you have done that you will be punished like that; you have been an immoral prostitute; you have had sex with men of other nations, and you have caused yourselves to become unacceptable to me [worshiping] their idols.
nde ememelaki yo makambo oyo ekomeli yo, pamba te okufelaki kolinga mibali ya bikolo wana mpe omikomisaki mbindo na nzela ya kosalela banzambe na bango ya bikeko.
31 You have behaved [the people of Samaria, who are like] your [older] sister. So I will cause you to be punished [MET] like they were punished.’
Lokola olandaki nzela ya ndeko na yo ya mwasi, nakotia kopo oyo ye amelaki na loboko na yo.
32 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘[You will suffer like people suffer when they drink from a cup a lot of strong alcoholic drink]: [It will be as though] you will drink from the cup that the people of Samaria drank from; a big and tall cup. Because of your drinking what is in that cup, many people will scorn you and make fun of you because there is a lot of liquid in that cup.
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Okomela kopo oyo ndeko na yo ya mwasi amelaki, kopo moko ya monene mpe ya mozindo; ekomemela yo kosambwa mpe soni, pamba te ezali monene penza.
33 When you become very drunk, you will become very sad, [drinking what is in] that cup [MTY] will cause you to become ruined and deserted, like what happened [MET] to [the people of] Samaria, [who are like] [MET] your sister.
Ekolangwisa yo na pasi: kopo ya kobebisama mpe ya somo, kopo ya ndeko na yo ya mwasi, Samari.
34 You will drink all the liquid that is in that cup; then you will break that cup into pieces [use those pieces to] gash/cut your [because you will be very sad].’ [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Okomela yango kino ekokawuka, okobuka-buka yango na biteni, mpe ekozokisa-zokisa mabele na yo, pamba te Ngai Nkolo Yawe nde nalobi.
35 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘Because you have forgotten me and rejected me [IDM], you must be punished for your immoral behavior and for [like] a prostitute.’”
Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola obosanaki Ngai mpe otiaki Ngai na sima ya mokongo na yo, okomema mikumba ya ekobo mpe ya kindumba na yo. »
36 Yahweh said to me, “You human, you must [RHQ] [the people of those two cities represented by] Oholah and Oholibah. You must remind them of their detestable behavior:
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, okosambisa penza Ohola mpe Oholiba? Lakisa bango misala na bango ya mbindo;
37 [It is as though the people of those cities] have committed adultery and have murdered [MTY] people. They have been unfaithful to me by [worshiping] idols. They have even sacrificed their own children, who belonged to me, to be food for their idols.
pamba te basalaki kindumba, mpe makila etondi na maboko na bango; basalaki kindumba na banzambe na bango ya bikeko, mpe babonzaki lokola mbeka bana na bango ya mibali oyo babotelaki Ngai, mpo ete bakoma bilei ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko.
38 They have done [disgraceful things]: They have caused my temple to be an unacceptable place for worship, and have not respected the Sabbath days.
Basalaki yango mpe lisusu epai na Ngai: kaka na tango yango, bakomisaki Esika na Ngai ya bule mbindo mpe babebisaki bosantu ya mikolo na Ngai ya Saba.
39 On the same day that they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my temple, which caused it to be an unacceptable place for worshiping me.
Kaka na mokolo oyo bazalaki kobonza lokola mbeka bana na bango epai ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko, bazalaki mpe kokota na Esika na Ngai ya bule mpe kobebisa bosantu na yango. Yango nde bazalaki kosala kati na Ndako na Ngai.
40 They sent messages to men [in countries] far away. And when those men arrived, [the women of those two cities] bathed themselves for them, painted their eyebrows, and put on jewelry.
Batindaki mpe bantoma epai ya bato oyo bazalaka mosika. Mpe tango bayaki, omisukolaki nzoto, opakolaki biloko ya monzele na miso mpe olataki babiju.
41 They sat on a beautiful couch, with a table in front of it on which they had put incense and [olive] oil that belonged to me.
Ovandaki na mbeto moko ya kitoko; mpe liboso na yango, ezalaki na mesa moko oyo otiaka malasi ya ansa mpe mafuta na Ngai.
42 Soon there was a noisy crowd around them. Among the crowd there were men from Sheba who had come from the [of Arabia]. They put bracelets on the arms of the [two] sisters and put beautiful crowns on their heads.
Zingazinga na ye, makelele ya bato ebele ezalaki koyokana, bameli masanga ebele oyo bawutaki na esobe elongo na bato ebele bayaki kolatisa bango mayaka na maboko mpe mitole ya bonzenga na mito na bango.
43 Then I said about the woman who had become exhausted by her having sex with many men, ‘Now allow those men to act toward her as though she is a prostitute, because that is all that she is.’
Boye, namilobelaki na tina na mwana mwasi oyo anzulukaki nzoto mpo na kindumba: ‹ Boni, ezali kaka ye oyo anzuluki nzoto nde azali kozongela lisusu penza kindumba! ›
44 So they had sex [EUP] with those two women, Oholah and Oholibah, like men have sex with prostitutes.
Mpe basangisaki na ye nzoto: ndenge mibali basangisaka nzoto na mwasi ya ndumba, ndenge wana mpe basalaki bango, Ohola mpe Oholiba.
45 But righteous men will condemn them to be punished, like women who commit adultery and who murder others are punished, because those women commit adultery and they murder [MTY] others.
Kasi bato ya sembo bakosambisa bango mpe bakokatela bango etumbu oyo bapesaka na basi oyo basalaka ekobo mpe basopaka makila, pamba te bazali bandumba mpe maboko na bango ezali na makila.
46 So this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: Bring a mob to attack Samaria and Jerusalem, and allow that mob to cause the people of those cities to be terrified, and to rob them.
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tika ete ebele ya bato batombokela bango, banyokola bango mpe babotola biloko na bango na makasi!
47 The mob will throw stones at [to kill them]; they will cut them into pieces with their swords, they will kill their sons and daughters, and burn down their houses.
Tika ete babamba bango mabanga mpe baboma bango na mopanga; baboma bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi mpe babebisa bandako na bango na moto.
48 In that way I will cause them to stop their immoral behavior. It will warn other women to not imitate/do what you people of Jerusalem are doing.
Na nzela wana nde nakosukisa kindumba kati na mokili, mpo ete basi nyonso bazwa mayele mpe balanda ndakisa na bango te.
49 [people of Jerusalem] will be punished for your immoral behavior and for your worshiping idols. Then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Bokozwa etumbu mpo na kindumba na bino mpe bokomema mikumba ya masumu na bino ya kosambela banzambe ya bikeko; boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Nkolo Yawe. »
