< Jeremiah 19 >

1 Yahweh said this, “Go and purchase a potter's clay flask while you are with the elders of the people and the priests.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: — Kende kosomba mbeki epai ya mosali mbeki. Kende nzela moko na bakambi ya bato mpe bakambi ya Banganga-Nzambe;
2 Then go out to the Valley of Ben Hinnom at the entry of the Broken Pottery Gate, and there proclaim the words that I will tell you.
bimela na nzela ya Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, na liboso ya ekuke ya ndako epai wapi basalaka mbeki; mpe kuna, okosakola maloba oyo nakoyebisa yo.
3 Say, 'Hear the word of Yahweh, kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem! Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, “See, I am about to bring disaster on this place, and the ears of everyone who hears of it will tingle.
Loba: « Bino bakonzi ya Yuda mpe bavandi ya Yelusalemi, boyoka Liloba na Yawe! Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Boyoka! Nakoyeisa pasi makasi na esika oyo; mpe moto nyonso oyo akoyoka sango na yango, akozala na somo.
4 I will do this because they have abandoned me and profaned this place. In this place they offer sacrifices to other gods that they did not know. They, their ancestors, and the kings of Judah have also filled this place with innocent blood.
Lokola bato oyo basundoli Ngai mpe bakomisi esika oyo esika ya banzambe ya bapaya, lokola bakomi kotumba mbeka na esika oyo mpo na banzambe oyo; ezala bango, batata na bango to bakonzi ya Yuda, batikalaki koyeba te, batondisi esika oyo na makila ya bato oyo basali mabe ata moko te,
5 They built the high places of Baal to burn their sons in the fire as burnt offerings to him—something that I did not command or mention, nor did it enter my mind.
batongi bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpo na Bala, mpo na kotumba bana na bango na moto lokola mbeka ya kotumba epai ya Bala; nzokande Ngai natikala kotinda bango likambo ya boye te to mpe likambo ya boye etikala ata komata na makanisi na Ngai te;
6 Therefore, see, the days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when this place will no longer be called Topheth, the Valley of Ben Hinnom, for it will be the Valley of Slaughter.
yango wana, na mikolo ekoya, elobi Yawe, bakobenga lisusu te esika oyo: ‹ Tofeti to Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, › kasi bakokoma kobenga yango: ‹ Lubwaku oyo babomelaka bato. ›
7 In this place I will make the plans of Judah and Jerusalem useless. I will make them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of the ones seeking their lives. Then I will give their corpses as food to the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth.
Kaka na esika oyo, nakobebisa mabongisi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi; nakosala ete bakweya na mopanga ya banguna na bango mpe na maboko ya bato oyo bazali na posa ya kosala bango mabe. Nakokomisa bibembe na bango bilei ya bandeke ya likolo mpe ya banyama ya zamba.
8 Then I will make this city a ruin and the object of hissing, for everyone passing by it will shudder and hiss regarding all of its plagues.
Nakobebisa engumba oyo mpe nakokomisa yango eloko ya kotiola. Bato nyonso oyo bakolekela awa bakokamwa mpe bakoyoka somo wana bakomona kobeba na yango nyonso.
9 I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters; each man will consume the flesh of his neighbor in the siege and in the anguish brought on them by their enemies and the ones seeking their lives.”'
Nakoleisa bango misuni ya bana na bango ya basi mpe ya mibali, bakoliana bango na bango tango bato oyo bazali na posa ya kosala bango mabe bakozingela bango.
10 Then you will break the clay flask in the sight of the men who went with you.
Boye, buka mbeki na miso ya bato oyo bozali kokende na bango nzela moko
11 You will say to them, 'Yahweh of hosts says this: I will do this same thing to this people and this city—this is Yahweh's declaration—just as Jeremiah shattered the clay flask so that it could not be repaired again. People will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no place left for any more dead.
mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Nakobebisa ekolo mpe engumba oyo, kaka ndenge bapanzaka mbeki oyo mosali mbeki asali, mpe bakokoka lisusu kobongisa yango te. Bakokunda bibembe na Tofeti kino esika ya kokunda ekotikala lisusu te.
12 This is what I will do to this place and its inhabitants when I make this city like Topheth—this is Yahweh's declaration—
Yango ezali makambo oyo nakosala na esika oyo mpe epai ya bavandi ya esika oyo, elobi Yawe, nakokomisa engumba oyo lokola Tofeti.
13 so the houses of Jerusalem and of the kings of Judah will become like Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops the unclean people worship all the stars of the heavens and pour out drink offerings to other gods.'”
Bandako ya Yelusalemi mpe bandako ya bakonzi ya Yuda ekokoma mbindo lokola esika oyo na kombo Tofeti, bandako nyonso oyo, na likolo ya manzanza na yango, bazalaki kotumba malasi ya ansa mpo na mampinga nyonso ya likolo mpe bazalaki kobonza makabo ya masanga ya vino mpo na banzambe mosusu. › »
14 Then Jeremiah went from Topheth, where Yahweh had sent him to prophesy. He stood in the courtyard of Yahweh's house and he said to all the people,
Jeremi azongaki wuta na Tofeti epai wapi Yawe atindaki ye mpo na kosakola, atelemaki na lopango ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe alobaki na bato nyonso:
15 “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'See, I am about to bring to this city and to all of its towns all the disaster that I have proclaimed against it, since they stiffened their neck and refused to listen to my words.'”
— Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Boyoka! Nakoyeisa na engumba oyo mpe na mboka oyo ezali zingazinga na yango pasi nyonso oyo nasakolaki na tina na yango, pamba te batosaki Ngai te mpe bayokaki maloba na ngai te. »
