Ezekiel 2
1 It [is] the appearance of the likeness of the honour of Jehovah, and I see, and fall on my face, and I hear a voice speaking, and He saith unto me, 'Son of man, stand on thy feet, and I speak with thee.'
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, telema na makolo na yo; pamba te nazali na likambo ya koyebisa yo. »
2 And there doth come into me a spirit, when He hath spoken unto me, and it causeth me to stand on my feet, and I hear Him who is speaking unto me.
Wana azalaki nanu koloba, Molimo akotaki kati na ngai mpe atelemisaki ngai na makolo na ngai; bongo nakomaki koyoka Ye koloba na ngai.
3 And He saith unto Me, 'Son of man, I am sending thee unto the sons of Israel, unto nations who are rebels, who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, unto this self-same day.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, nazali kotinda yo epai ya bana ya Isalaele, ekolo ya bato ya mito makasi, bato oyo batombokelaka ngai. Wuta kala kino na mokolo ya lelo, bango mpe batata na bango batombokelaka kaka ngai.
4 And the sons [are] brazen-faced and hard-hearted to whom I am sending thee, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah:
Bato oyo epai wapi nazali kotinda yo, bazali mito makasi mpe mitema mabanga. Loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi. ›
5 and they — whether they hear, or whether they forbear, for a rebellious house they [are] — have known that a prophet hath been in their midst.
Boye, ezala bayokeli yo to baboyi koyokela yo, mpo ete bazali libota ya batomboki, bakososola solo ete mosakoli moko azali kati na bango.
6 'And thou, son of man, thou art not afraid of them, yea, of their words thou art not afraid, for briers and thorns are with thee, and near scorpions thou art dwelling, of their words thou art not afraid, and of their faces thou art not affrighted, for they [are] a rebellious house,
Bongo yo, mwana na moto, kobanga bango te mpe kobanga maloba na bango te, atako banzube mpe basende ezingeli yo mpe ozali kovanda elongo na koto. Kozala na somo ya makambo oyo bazali koloba te mpe kolenga liboso na bango te atako bazali batomboki.
7 And thou hast spoken My words unto them, whether they hear or whether they forbear, for they [are] rebellious.
Osengeli koyebisa bango maloba na ngai, ezala bayokeli yo to bayokeli yo te, mpo ete bazali batomboki.
8 'And thou, son of man, hear that which I am speaking unto thee: Thou art not rebellious like the rebellious house, open thy mouth, and eat that which I am giving unto thee.'
Kasi yo, mwana na moto, yoka makambo oyo nazali koloba na yo. Kotombokela ngai te lokola libota ya batomboki oyo! Fungola monoko na yo mpe lia oyo nazali kopesa yo! »
9 And I look, and lo, a hand [is] sent forth unto me, and lo, in it a roll of a book,
Bongo natalaki mpe namonaki loboko moko esembolama kino epai na ngai mpe esimbaki mokanda lokola buku elingama.
10 and He spreadeth it before me, and it is written in front and behind, and written on it [are] lamentations, and mourning, and woe!
Loboko yango efungolaki mokanda yango liboso na ngai. Na bangambo na yango nyonso mibale, bakomaki: basango ya bileli, ya mikakatano mpe ya pasi.
