Ezekiel 8
1 In the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, the Lord GOD’s hand fell on me there.
Na mobu ya motoba, na mokolo ya mitano ya sanza ya motoba, wana nazalaki ya kovanda kati na ndako na ngai, mpe bakambi ya Yuda bavandaki liboso na ngai, loboko ya Nkolo Yawe esimbaki ngai kuna.
2 Then I saw, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of fire—from the appearance of his waist and downward, fire, and from his waist and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as it were glowing metal.
Tango natalaki, namonaki elilingi moko lokola elongi ya moto. Eteni oyo ezalaki komonana lokola se ya loketo na yango ezalaki lokola moto, mpe lolenge ya eteni oyo ezalaki komonana lokola likolo ya loketo na yango ezalaki kongenga makasi lokola linzanza ya sika.
3 He stretched out the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and the sky, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the gate of the inner court that looks toward the north, where there was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provokes to jealousy.
Asembolaki elilingi moko lokola loboko mpe asimbaki ngai na suki ya moto. Molimo atombolaki ngai na kati-kati ya se mpe likolo mpe amemaki ngai, kati na emoniseli ya Nzambe, kino na Yelusalemi, na ekotelo ya Ekuke ya nor ya lopango ya kati ya Tempelo, epai wapi batelemisaki nzambe ya ekeko oyo etumbolaka zuwa.
4 Behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the appearance that I saw in the plain.
Nkembo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele ezalaki kuna ndenge kaka namonaki yango na emoniseli kati na lubwaku.
5 Then he said to me, “Son of man, lift up your eyes now the way toward the north.” So I lifted up my eyes the way toward the north, and saw, northward of the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala na ngambo ya nor. » Natombolaki miso na ngai mpe namonaki nzambe ya ekeko ya zuwa, na ekotelo ya Ekuke oyo ya nor ya etumbelo.
6 He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they do? Even the great abominations that the house of Israel commit here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? But you will again see yet other great abominations.”
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, ozali komona makambo oyo bazali kosala, makambo mabe mpe ya nkele oyo libota ya Isalaele bazali kosala awa, makambo oyo ekokomisa Ngai mosika ya Esika na Ngai ya bule? Kasi okomona lisusu makambo oyo ezali mabe koleka. »
7 He brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold, a hole in the wall.
Amemaki ngai na ekotelo ya lopango. Tango natalaki, namonaki lidusu moko na mir.
8 Then he said to me, “Son of man, dig now in the wall.” When I had dug in the wall, I saw a door.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tobola mir. » Tango natobolaki yango, namonaki ekuke moko kuna.
9 He said to me, “Go in, and see the wicked abominations that they do here.”
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Kota; okomona makambo mabe mpe ya nkele oyo bazali kosala awa! »
10 So I went in and looked, and saw every form of creeping things, abominable animals, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed around on the wall.
Tango nakotaki, natalaki mpe namonaki ete bakomakoma na bamir bililingi ya miselekete mpe ya banyoka ya lolenge nyonso, ya banyama nyonso ya mbindo mpe ya banzambe nyonso ya bikeko ya libota ya Isalaele.
11 Seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel stood before them. In the middle of them Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan stood, every man with his censer in his hand; and the smell of the cloud of incense went up.
Bongo, liboso na yango, bakambi tuku sambo ya libota ya Isalaele batelemaki; mpe moko na moko kati na bango asimbaki mbabola oyo batumbelaka malasi: ezalaki kobimisa milinga ya solo ya ansa. Yazania, mwana mobali ya Shafani, azalaki mpe elongo na bango.
12 Then he said to me, “Son of man, have you seen what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in his rooms of imagery? For they say, ‘The LORD doesn’t see us. The LORD has forsaken the land.’”
Molimo alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, omoni makambo oyo bakambi ya libota ya Isalaele bazali kosala, moko na moko kati na esika ya bule ya nzambe na ye ya ekeko? Bazali koloba: ‹ Yawe azali komona biso te, Yawe asili na Ye kosundola mokili! › »
13 He said also to me, “You will again see more of the great abominations which they do.”
Alobaki lisusu: « Okomona bango ndenge bazali kosala makambo ya mbindo oyo eleki penza mabe. »
14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD’s house which was toward the north; and I saw the women sit there weeping for Tammuz.
Bongo amemaki ngai lisusu na ekotelo ya Ekuke ya ngambo ya nor ya Tempelo ya Yawe; bongo namonaki basi bavandi wana, bazali kolela Tamuzi.
15 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, son of man? You will again see yet greater abominations than these.”
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, omoni makambo oyo? Okomona lisusu makambo ya mbindo koleka oyo ya liboso. »
16 He brought me into the inner court of the LORD’s house; and I saw at the door of the LORD’s temple, between the porch and the altar, there were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the LORD’s temple and their faces toward the east. They were worshiping the sun toward the east.
Akotisaki ngai kati na lopango ya kati ya Tempelo ya Yawe: na ekotelo ya Tempelo, bato tuku mibale na mitano bazalaki na kati-kati ya ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo mpe etumbelo; bapesaki mikongo na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bilongi na bango ezalaki kotala na ngambo ya este; bazalaki kogumbama na kotalaka na ngambo ya este mpo na kogumbamela moyi.
17 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? For they have filled the land with violence, and have turned again to provoke me to anger. Behold, they put the branch to their nose.
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Mwana na moto, omoni? Boni, ezali penza pamba mpo na libota ya Yuda kosala makambo ya nkele oyo bazali kosala na esika oyo? Batondisa lisusu mokili na makambo na bango ya kanza mpo na kokoba kotumbola kanda na Ngai? Tala ndenge bazali kotombola mandalala kino na zolo!
18 Therefore I will also deal in wrath. My eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity. Though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, yet I will not hear them.”
Mpo na yango, Ngai mpe nakopesa bango etumbu na kanda, nakoyokela bango mawa te mpe nakobikisa bango te. Ata bagangi na matoyi na Ngai, nakoyoka bango te. »
