< Jeremiah 32 >

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi tango Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu zomi na bokonzi mpe Nabukodonozori akokisaki mibu zomi na mwambe na bokonzi.
2 Now at that time the king of Babylon’s army was besieging Jerusalem. Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judah’s house.
Ezalaki na tango oyo mampinga ya mokonzi ya Babiloni ezingelaki Yelusalemi, mpe mosakoli Jeremi azalaki ya kokangama kati na boloko oyo ezalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli ya ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda.
3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, “Why do you prophesy, and say, ‘The LORD says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will take it;
Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, abwakaki ye kuna na koloba: « Mpo na nini ozali kosakola na maloba oyo: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakokaba engumba oyo na maboko ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe akobotola yango;
4 and Zedekiah king of Judah won’t escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but will surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and will speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes will see his eyes;
Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akolonga te kokima liboso ya bato ya Babiloni, kasi nakokaba ye solo na maboko ya mokonzi ya Babiloni oyo akolobana na ye mpe akotalana na ye na elongi;
5 and he will bring Zedekiah to Babylon, and he will be there until I visit him,” says the LORD, “though you fight with the Chaldeans, you will not prosper”’?”
akomema Sedesiasi na Babiloni, akowumela kuna kino tango nakotala likambo na ye, elobi Yawe, soki bomeki kobundisa bato ya Babiloni, bokolonga te. › »
6 Jeremiah said, “The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Jeremi alobaki: « Yawe alobaki na ngai:
7 ‘Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle will come to you, saying, “Buy my field that is in Anathoth; for the right of redemption is yours to buy it.”’”
Anameyeli, mwana mobali ya Shalumi, noko na yo, azali koya epai na yo mpe akoloba: ‹ Somba elanga na ngai, oyo ezali na Anatoti, pamba te yo nde ozali na makoki mpe na mokumba ya kosikola yango. ›
8 “So Hanamel my uncle’s son came to me in the court of the guard according to the LORD’s word, and said to me, ‘Please buy my field that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for the right of inheritance is yours, and the redemption is yours. Buy it for yourself.’ “Then I knew that this was the LORD’s word.
Bongo, kaka ndenge Yawe alobaki, Anameyeli, mwana ya noko na ngai, ayaki kotala ngai kati na lopango ya bakengeli mpe alobaki: ‹ Somba elanga na ngai, oyo ezali na Anatoti kati na etuka ya Benjame, pamba te yo nde ozali na makoki ya kosikola yango mpe ya kozwa yango; somba na yo yango. › Nasosolaki ete ezali Liloba na Yawe;
9 I bought the field that was in Anathoth of Hanamel my uncle’s son, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.
boye nasombaki elanga oyo ezali na Anatoti, na maboko ya Anameyeli, mwana mobali ya noko na ngai, mpe nafutaki ye mbongo ya bibende ya palata, zomi na sambo.
10 I signed the deed, sealed it, called witnesses, and weighed the money in the balances to him.
Nakomaki mokanda oyo nasombelaki elanga mpe nabetaki yango kashe; namekaki kilo ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata na miso ya batatoli, na emekelo kilo.
11 So I took the deed of the purchase, both that which was sealed, containing the terms and conditions, and that which was open;
Nakamataki mokanda oyo nasombelaki elanga, oyo nabetaki kashe, oyo kati na yango bakoma malako ya mibeko mpe mabongisi; mpe nazwaki lisusu mokanda oyo babeta kashe te;
12 and I delivered the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel my uncle’s son, and in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of the purchase, before all the Jews who sat in the court of the guard.
mpe napesaki mokanda oyo nasombelaki elanga epai ya Baruki, mwana mobali ya Neriya, mwana mobali ya Maaseya, na miso ya Anameyeli, mwana ya noko na ngai, mpe ya batatoli oyo batiaki mikoloto na bango kati na mokanda oyo nasombelaki elanga, mpe na miso ya Bayuda nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli.
13 “I commanded Baruch before them, saying,
Napesaki Baruki mitindo oyo na miso na bango nyonso:
14 the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Take these deeds, this deed of the purchase which is sealed, and this deed which is open, and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may last many days.’
‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Kamata mikanda oyo nasombelaki elanga, ezala oyo babeta kashe to oyo babeta kashe te; tia yango kati na mbeki oyo basala na mabele ya bikeko mpo ete ebeba te.
15 For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: ‘Houses and fields and vineyards will yet again be bought in this land.’
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Bato bakosomba lisusu bandako, bilanga mpe bilanga ya vino kati na mokili oyo. ›
16 Now after I had delivered the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to the LORD, saying,
Sima na ngai kopesa mokanda oyo nasombelaki elanga epai ya Baruki, mwana mobali ya Neriya, nabondelaki Yawe:
17 “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you.
Oh Nkolo Yawe! Yo nde osala likolo mpe mabele na nguya monene na Yo, otanda yango na makasi ya loboko na Yo: olembanaka likambo moko te.
18 You show loving kindness to thousands, and repay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them. The great, the mighty God, the LORD of Armies is your name:
Otalisaka bolingo na Yo epai ya bato kino na molongo ya nkoto, kasi opesaka etumbu mpo na masumu ya batata epai ya bana mpe bakitani na bango. Oh Nzambe monene mpe ya nguya, Kombo na Yo ezali Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga;
19 great in counsel, and mighty in work; whose eyes are open to all the ways of the children of men, to give everyone according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings;
mabongisi na Yo ezali minene mpe misala minene na Yo ezali ya kokamwa; miso na Yo ezalaka ya kofungwama mpo na kotala banzela nyonso ya bato, mpo na kopesa na moto nyonso kolanda etamboli mpe misala na ye.
20 who performed signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even to this day, both in Israel and amongst other men; and made yourself a name, as it is today;
Osalaki bilembo minene mpe bikamwa kati na Ejipito mpe ozali kokoba kosala yango kino lelo kati na Isalaele mpe kati na bato nyonso, mpe osalaki ete Kombo na Yo ekende sango ndenge ezali komonana na mokolo ya lelo.
21 and brought your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, with wonders, with a strong hand, with an outstretched arm, and with great terror;
Obimisaki bato na Yo, Isalaele, na Ejipito na nzela ya bilembo minene mpe bikamwa wana osalelaki nguya na Yo mpe osembolaki loboko na Yo ya nguya mpo na koyeisa somo kati na bato ya Ejipito.
22 and gave them this land, which you swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Opesaki bango mokili oyo, na nzela ya ndayi, olakaki kopesa na batata na bango, mokili oyo ebimisaka miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi.
23 They came in and possessed it, but they didn’t obey your voice and didn’t walk in your law. They have done nothing of all that you commanded them to do. Therefore you have caused all this evil to come upon them.
Bakotaki kati na yango mpe babotolaki yango; kasi batosaki Yo te, basalelaki Mobeko na Yo te, basalaki te nyonso oyo otindaki bango. Yango wana omemelaki bango pasi oyo nyonso.
24 “Behold, siege ramps have been built against the city to take it. The city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of the sword, of the famine, and of the pestilence. What you have spoken has happened. Behold, you see it.
Tala, banguna basili kobongama mpo na kobotola engumba! Likolo ya mopanga, ya nzala makasi mpe ya bokono oyo ebomaka, engumba oyo ekokweya na maboko ya bato ya Babiloni, oyo bazali kobundisa yango. Makambo oyo olobaki ekokisami, ndenge ozali komona yango na mokolo ya lelo.
25 You have said to me, Lord GOD, ‘Buy the field for money, and call witnesses;’ whereas the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.”
Mpe atako engumba oyo ekokweya na maboko ya bato ya Babiloni, Yo, Nkolo Yawe, olobi na ngai: ‹ Somba elanga na mbongo ya bibende ya palata na miso ya batatoli. › »
26 Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Bongo Yawe alobaki na Jeremi:
27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me?
« Nazali Yawe, Nzambe ya moto nyonso. Boni, ezali na likambo oyo Ngai nakoki kolembana?
28 Therefore the LORD says: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will take it.
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakokaba engumba oyo na maboko ya bato ya Babiloni mpe ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpo ete azwa yango.
29 The Chaldeans, who fight against this city, will come and set this city on fire, and burn it with the houses on whose roofs they have offered incense to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Bato ya Babiloni oyo bazali kobundisa engumba oyo, bakokota kati na yango mpe bakotumba yango; bakotumba yango elongo na bandako oyo, na likolo ya manzanza na yango, bato bazalaki kotumbola Ngai na kobonza bambeka ya malasi ya ansa epai ya nzambe Bala mpe kobonza makabo ya masanga ya vino epai ya banzambe ya bapaya.
30 “For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done only that which was evil in my sight from their youth; for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, says the LORD.
Bana ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda, wuta bolenge na bango, bazalaki kosala eloko mosusu te na miso na Ngai, soki kaka mabe te; solo, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kosala eloko mosusu te, soki kaka te kopesa Ngai kanda na nzela ya biloko oyo maboko na bango esalaki, elobi Yawe.
31 For this city has been to me a provocation of my anger and of my wrath from the day that they built it even to this day, so that I should remove it from before my face,
Wuta batonga engumba oyo kino na mokolo ya lelo, mosala na yango kaka kotumbola Ngai mpe kopesa Ngai kanda; yango wana, nakolongola yango liboso na Ngai.
32 because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger—they, their kings, their princes, their priests, their prophets, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Bato ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda bapesaki Ngai kanda na nzela ya mabe nyonso oyo basalaki: ezala bango, bakonzi na bango, bakalaka na bango, Banganga-Nzambe mpe basakoli na bango, bato ya Yuda mpe bavandi ya Yelusalemi.
33 They have turned their backs to me, and not their faces. Although I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not listened to receive instruction.
Bapesaki Ngai mokongo na esika ya kotala Ngai. Atako nazalaki tango na tango koteya bango, kasi batikalaki koyoka Ngai te mpe baboyaki kozwa mayele.
34 But they set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
Batiaki kutu banzambe na bango ya bikeko kati na Ndako epai wapi babelaka Kombo na Ngai, mpe na bongo, bakomisaki yango mbindo.
35 They built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through fire to Molech, which I didn’t command them. It didn’t even come into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.”
Bakomaki kotonga bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpo na Bala, na Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, mpo na kobonza bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi epai ya Moloki; ezali likambo oyo Ngai natikalaki kotinda bango te, mpe natikala kokanisa te ete bakoki kosala makambo ya nkele boye mpo na komemisa Yuda masumu.
36 Now therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning this city, about which you say, “It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence:”
Mpo na yango, tala sik’oyo liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na engumba oyo bino bozali koloba ete ekabami na maboko ya mokonzi ya Babiloni na nzela ya mopanga, ya nzala makasi mpe ya bokono oyo ebomaka:
37 “Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries where I have driven them in my anger, and in my wrath, and in great indignation; and I will bring them again to this place. I will cause them to dwell safely.
‹ Solo, nakosangisa bango wuta na mikili nyonso epai wapi nabenganaki bango tango natombokelaki bango, nakozongisa bango na esika oyo mpe nakovandisa bango na kimia.
38 Then they will be my people, and I will be their God.
Bakozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Nzambe na bango.
39 I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me forever, for their good and the good of their children after them.
Nakopesa bango motema se moko mpe etamboli se moko mpo ete batosaka Ngai tango nyonso mpo na bolamu na bango mpe mpo na bolamu ya bakitani na bango.
40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from following them, to do them good. I will put my fear in their hearts, that they may not depart from me.
Nakosala boyokani ya libela elongo na bango, nakotika te kosalela bango bolamu mpe nakosala ete batosa Ngai mpe bapesa Ngai lisusu mokongo te.
41 Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.”
Nakosepela kosalela bango bolamu mpe nakolona bango penza kati na mokili oyo, na motema mpe na molimo na Ngai mobimba. ›
42 For the LORD says: “Just as I have brought all this great evil on this people, so I will bring on them all the good that I have promised them.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Ndenge natindelaki bato oyo pasi oyo nyonso, ndenge wana mpe nakotindela bango bomengo nyonso oyo nalakaki bango.
43 Fields will be bought in this land, about which you say, ‘It is desolate, without man or animal. It is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.’
Bato bakosomba lisusu bilanga kati na mokili oyo bino bozali koloba na tina na yango: ‹ Mokili oyo ebeba, etikala lisusu na bato mpe na banyama te; pamba te ekabama na maboko ya bato ya Babiloni. ›
44 Men will buy fields for money, sign the deeds, seal them, and call witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, and in the places around Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed,” says the LORD.
Solo, bakosomba lisusu bilanga na motuya ya palata, bakotia mikoloto mpe bakashe na mikanda oyo bakosombela bilanga yango, na miso ya batatoli, kati na mboka ya Benjame, kati na bamboka mike-mike oyo ezali zingazinga ya Yelusalemi, kati na bingumba ya Yuda mpe kati na bingumba ya mokili ya bangomba, kati na bingumba ya bitando mpe kati na bingumba ya Negevi; pamba te nakozongisa bato na bango oyo bakendeki na bowumbu, elobi Yawe. »
