Jeremiah 25
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi na tina na bato nyonso ya Yuda, tango Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu minei na bokonzi, mpe Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, akokisaki mobu moko na bokonzi.
2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
Mosakoli Jeremi alobaki na bato nyonso ya Yuda mpe na bavandi nyonso ya Yelusalemi:
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, the LORD’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened.
« Wuta tango Joziasi, mwana mobali ya Amoni, mokonzi ya Yuda, akokisaki mibu zomi na misato na bokonzi kino na mokolo ya lelo, ekokisi mibu tuku mibale na misato oyo nayebisaka bino tango na tango liloba oyo Yawe azalaki koloba na ngai, kasi boyokaki ngai te.
4 The LORD has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear),
Mpe atako Yawe azalaki kotindela bino tango na tango basakoli, basali na Ye, kasi bosalaki kaka keba te mpo na koyoka liloba na Ye.
5 saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
Bazalaki koloba na bino: ‹ Tika ete moko na moko kati na bino abongola motema, atika nzela mpe misala na ye ya mabe; pamba te ezali na nzela wana nde bokoki kowumela na mokili oyo Yawe apesaki bino mpe batata na bino, wuta kala, mpo na libela.
6 Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
Bolanda banzambe mosusu te, bosalela mpe bofukamela yango te; bopelisa kanda na Ngai te na nzela ya banzambe ya bikeko oyo maboko na bino esali, mpe Ngai nakomonisa bino pasi te.
7 “Yet you have not listened to me,” says the LORD, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
Kasi boyokaki Ngai te, › elobi Yawe, ‹ botumbolaki Ngai kutu na nzela ya banzambe ya bikeko, oyo maboko na bino esalaki, mpe bomibendelaki bino moko pasi. › »
8 Therefore the LORD of Hosts says: “Because you have not heard my words,
Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Lokola boyokaki maloba na Ngai te,
9 behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says the LORD, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
nakobengisa bato nyonso ya bikolo ya nor mpe mosali na Ngai, Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, » elobi Yawe, « nakosala ete babundisa mokili oyo, bavandi na yango mpe bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga. Nakobebisa bango penza mpe nakokomisa bango eloko ya somo mpe ya kotiola; boye bakotikala seko na seko libebi.
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
Nakolongola kati na bango pole ya mwinda, banzembo ya esengo mpe kosepela, makelele ya bisengo ya libala ya sika mpe ya libanga oyo banikelaka ble.
11 This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
Mokili oyo mobimba ekobebisama mpe ekotikala lisusu na bato te; mpe bikolo oyo ekosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni mibu tuku sambo.
12 “It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says the LORD, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Kasdim desolate forever.
Kasi soki mibu tuku sambo ekoki, nakopesa mokonzi ya Babiloni elongo na ekolo na ye mpe mokili ya bato ya Babiloni etumbu mpo na mabe oyo basalaki, » elobi Yawe, « mpe nakobebisa yango mpo na libela.
13 I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
Nakokokisa kati na mokili yango maloba nyonso oyo nalobaki mpo na kotelemela yango, maloba nyonso oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo, maloba oyo Jeremi asakolaki mpo na kotelemela bikolo nyonso.
14 For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.”
Bango, bato ya Babiloni, bakokoma mpe bawumbu ya bikolo ebele mpe ya bakonzi ya nguya; nakosalela bango kolanda etamboli mpe misala ya maboko na bango. »
15 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobaki na ngai: « Kamata na loboko na Ngai kopo etonda na vino ya kanda na Ngai mpe melisa yango bikolo nyonso epai wapi nakotinda yo.
16 They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
Tango bakomela yango, bakolangwa mpe bakokoma kotenga-tenga liboso ya mopanga oyo nakotinda kati na bango. »
17 Then I took the cup at the LORD’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom the LORD had sent me:
Boye, nakamataki kopo yango na loboko ya Yawe mpe namelisaki yango bikolo nyonso epai wapi atindaki ngai:
18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
Yelusalemi elongo na bingumba ya Yuda, bakonzi mpe bakalaka na yango; mpo na kobebisa yango, kokomisa yango eloko ya somo, ya maseki mpe ya lisuma, ndenge ezali komonana sik’oyo.
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;
Namelisaki yango Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito; basali na ye, bakalaka na ye, bato na ye nyonso,
20 and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
bapaya nyonso oyo bavandaka kuna, bakonzi nyonso ya mokili ya Utsi; bakonzi nyonso ya mokili ya Filisitia, ya Ashikeloni, ya Gaza, ya Ekroni mpe ya bato oyo batikalaki na Asidodi;
21 Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon;
Edomi, Moabi, bato ya Amoni;
22 and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
bakonzi nyonso ya Tiri mpe ya Sidoni; bakonzi ya bisanga mpe ya bituka oyo ezalaka pene ya ebale monene;
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
Dedani, Tema, Buzi mpe bato nyonso oyo bavandaka mosika mpe batikaka mandefu te;
24 and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
bakonzi nyonso ya Arabi mpe bakonzi nyonso ya bikolo ya bapaya oyo bavandaka kati na esobe;
25 and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
bakonzi nyonso ya Zimiri, ya Elami mpe ya Medi;
26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them.
bakonzi nyonso ya nor, oyo bazalaka pene mpe ba-oyo bazalaka mosika, moko pene na mosusu, bakonzi ya mboka nyonso oyo ezalaka na mokili. Sima na bango nyonso, mokonzi ya Sheshaki mpe akomela yango.
27 “You shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’
« Boye loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Bomela, bolangwa mpe bosanza, bokweya mpo na kotelema lisusu te, mpo na mopanga oyo nakotinda kati na bino. ›
28 It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “You shall surely drink.
Soki baboyi kozwa mpe komela kopo oyo ezali na loboko na yo, okoloba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Bomela! Bomela!
29 For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says the LORD of Hosts.”’
Pamba te, botala! Ezali na engumba epai wapi babelelaka Kombo na Ngai nde nabandi kotinda pasi; boni, bokanisi ete bino bokozwa etumbu te? Bokozanga te kozwa etumbu, pamba te nazali koyeisa mopanga kati na bavandi nyonso ya mokili, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga. ›
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘The LORD will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
Sakola maloba oyo nyonso mpo na kotelemela bango mpe loba na bango: ‹ Yawe azali koganga wuta na likolo, azali kotomboka lokola kake wuta na Esika na Ye ya bule, azali konguluma makasi mpo na kotelemela mokili na Ye! Akoganga lokola bato oyo bakamolaka mbuma ya vino, akogangela bavandi nyonso ya mokili oyo!
31 A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for the LORD has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says the LORD.”
Makelele ya makasi ekoyokana kino na suka ya mokili; pamba te Yawe akosambisa bikolo, akosambisa bato nyonso, akobomisa bato mabe na mopanga, › » elobi Yawe.
32 The LORD of Hosts says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Tala! Pasi ezali kopanzana longwa na ekolo moko kino na ekolo mosusu; mopepe makasi etelemi longwa na basuka ya mokili. »
33 The slain of the LORD will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
Na tango wana, bato oyo Yawe akoboma bakozala bisika nyonso, longwa na songe moko kino na songe mosusu ya mokili. Bakosalela bango matanga te, bakosangisa bango te mpo na kokunda bango.
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
Bino babateli bibwele, bolela mpe boganga! Bino bakambi ya bitonga, bobaluka-baluka na putulu! Pamba te tango na bino ya kokufa ekoki! Bokokweya mpe bokopanzana mike-mike lokola mbeki.
35 The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
Babateli bibwele bakozanga esika ya kokimela; bakambi ya bampate bakozanga esika ya kobombama.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for the LORD destroys their pasture.
Boyoka koganga ya babateli bibwele, kolela ya bakambi ya bampate, pamba te Yawe azali kobebisa bazamba epai wapi bibwele eliaka.
37 The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
Bitando ya kimia ekotikala pamba likolo ya kanda ya Yawe.
38 He has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.
Lokola nkosi etikaka ndako na yango, mokili na bango mpe ekotikala lisusu na bato te likolo ya mopanga ya banyokoli na bango mpe likolo ya kanda ya Yawe.
