< Zechariah 4 >
1 The angel who talked with me came again and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
Anjelu oyo azalaki kosolola na ngai azongaki mpe alamusaki ngai ndenge balamusaka moto oyo alali pongi.
2 He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I have seen, and behold, a lamp stand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;
Atunaki ngai: — Ozali komona nini? Nazongiselaki ye: — Nazali komona etelemiselo moko ya mwinda, basala na wolo mpe, na likolo na yango, ezali na kopo moko, minda sambo mpe batio sambo oyo elekisaka mafuta kino na minda.
3 and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it.”
Ezali lisusu na banzete mibale ya olive pene ya etelemiselo ya minda: moko na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, mpe mosusu na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi.
4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
Natunaki Anjelu oyo azalaki kosolola na ngai: — Nyonso oyo elakisi nini, nkolo na ngai?
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
Azongiselaki ngai: — Boni, oyebi te soki elingi kolakisa nini? Nazongiselaki ye: — Te, nkolo na ngai!
6 Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, “This is the LORD’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD of Hosts.
Alobaki na ngai: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na Zorobabeli: « Ezali na makasi to na nguya na yo te, kasi na nguya na Ngai, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
7 Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace, to it!’”
Ozali nani, ngomba monene? Okokoma etando liboso ya Zorobabeli. Akobimisa libanga monene kati na yo, wana bato bakozala koganga na esengo: « Tika ete Nzambe apambola yango! Tika ete Nzambe apambola yango! »
8 Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai:
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands shall also finish it; and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you.
— Ezali maboko ya Zorobabeli nde etongaki miboko ya Tempelo oyo; ezali mpe kaka maboko yango nde ekosilisa mosala ya kotonga yango. Boye bokoyeba solo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, nde atindaki ngai epai na bino.
10 Indeed, who despises the day of small things? For these seven shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the LORD’s eyes, which run back and forth through the whole earth.”
Nani atiolaki makambo mike ya ebandeli? Bato bakotonda na esengo tango bakomona, na maboko ya Zorobabeli, singa oyo bamekelaka molayi. Biloko wana sambo ezali nde miso ya Yawe oyo etalaka mokili mobimba.
11 Then I asked him, “What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lamp stand and on the left side of it?”
Natunaki Anjelu: — Banzete mibale ya olive oyo ezali na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe ya mwasi ya etelemiselo ya minda elakisi nini?
12 I asked him the second time, “What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts that pour the golden oil out of themselves?”
Natunaki ye lisusu: — Bitape mibale ya nzete ya olive, oyo ezali pembeni ya batio mibale ya wolo oyo ebimisaka mafuta oyo engalaka elakisi nini?
13 He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
Azongiselaki ngai: — Boni, oyebi te soki elakisi nini? Nazongisaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai.
14 Then he said, “These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.”
Boye, alobaki: — Ezali nde bato mibale oyo bapakolami mafuta mpo na kosalela Nkolo ya mokili mobimba.
