< Ezekiel 3 >
1 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, that which thou findest eat, eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.'
Bongo alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, lia eloko oyo ezali liboso na yo, lia buku oyo elingama mpe kende koloba na libota ya Isalaele. »
2 And I open my mouth, and He causeth me to eat this roll.
Boye, nafungolaki monoko na ngai, mpe aleisaki ngai buku yango oyo elingama.
3 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, thy belly thou dost feed, and thy bowels thou dost fill with this roll that I am giving unto thee;' and I eat it, and it is in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Mwana na moto, lia mokanda oyo nazali kopesa yo mpe tondisa libumu na yo na yango. » Boye, naliaki yango, mpe ezalaki elengi na monoko na ngai lokola mafuta ya nzoyi.
4 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, go, enter in unto the house of Israel, and thou hast spoken with My words unto them.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, kende sik’oyo na libota ya Isalaele mpe yebisa bango maloba na Ngai.
5 For, not unto a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue [art] thou sent — unto the house of Israel;
Otindami te epai ya bato oyo monoko na bango ezalaka pasi mpo na koloba mpe kososola, kasi epai ya bana ya Isalaele.
6 not unto many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words thou dost not understand. If I had not sent thee unto them — they, they do hearken unto thee,
Otindami te kati na bikolo ebele oyo monoko na bango ezalaka pasi mpo na koloba mpe kososola. Solo, soki natindaki yo epai ya bikolo wana, balingaki kososola sango oyo omemeli bango.
7 but the house of Israel are not willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.
Kasi libota ya Isalaele bakolinga koyokela yo te, mpo ete balingaka koyokela Ngai te; pamba te libota mobimba ya Isalaele bazali mitema mpe mito makasi.
8 'Lo, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.
Nakokomisa yo motema mpe moto makasi lokola bango.
9 As an adamant harder than a rock I have made thy forehead; thou dost not fear them, nor art thou affrighted before them, for a rebellious house [are] they.'
Nakokomisa mbunzu na yo makasi lokola diama to mpe makasi koleka ata libanga. Kobanga te mpe kolenga te liboso na bango, atako bazali libota ya batomboki. »
10 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, all My words, that I speak unto thee, receive with thy heart, and with thine ears hear;
Alobaki na ngai lisusu: « Mwana na moto, yoka malamu maloba oyo nakoloba na yo mpe batela yango malamu kati na motema na yo.
11 and go, enter in unto the Removed, unto the sons of thy people, and thou hast spoken unto them, and hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: whether they hear, or whether they forbear.'
Kende sik’oyo epai ya bandeko na yo, oyo bozali elongo na bango kati na bowumbu; okoyebisa bango mpe, ezala bayokeli yo to baboyi koyokela yo, okoloba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi. › »
12 And lift me up doth a spirit, and I hear behind me a noise, a great rushing — 'Blessed [is] the honour of Jehovah from His place!' —
Boye, Molimo atelemisaki ngai mpe nayokaki sima na ngai makelele moko ya makasi: « Tika ete nkembo ya Yawe epambolama wuta na esika oyo Ye avandaka! »
13 even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels over-against them, even a noise of a great rushing.
Nayokaki lisusu makelele ya mapapu ya bikelamu ya bomoi, tango ezalaki kotutana lipapu moko na mosusu, makelele ya bapine mpe lokito moko ya makasi.
14 And a spirit hath lifted me up, and doth take me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of Jehovah on me [is] strong.
Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai mosika. Boye, nazalaki kokende na pasi na motema, mpe molimo na ngai etondisamaki na kanda; nzokande loboko na Yawe ezalaki kosala kati na ngai na nguya makasi.
15 And I come in unto the Removed, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.
Nakomaki kino na Teli-Avivi epai wapi bato oyo bamemaki na bowumbu bazalaki kovanda, pembeni ya ebale Kebari. Navandaki kuna elongo na bango mikolo sambo; nazalaki kokamwa mingi.
16 And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven days,
Sima na mikolo sambo, Yawe alobaki na ngai:
17 that there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Son of man, a watchman I have given thee to the house of Israel, and thou hast heard from My mouth a word, and hast warned them from Me.
« Mwana na moto, nasili kotia yo mokengeli mpo na libota ya Isalaele; boye yoka maloba oyo nazali koloba mpe kebisa bango na Kombo na Ngai.
18 In My saying to the wicked: Thou dost surely die; and thou hast not warned him, nor hast spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he doth live; he — the wicked — in his iniquity dieth, and his blood from thy hand I require.
Soki Ngai nalobi na moto mabe: ‹ Solo, okokufa, › kasi yo okebisi ye te to oyebisi ye te ete atika nzela na ye ya mabe mpo ete abikisa bomoi na ye, moto wana ya mabe akokufa solo mpo na masumu na ye, kasi nakotanga makila na ye na moto na yo.
19 And thou, because thou hast warned the wicked, and he hath not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he in his iniquity dieth, and thou thy soul hast delivered.
Kasi soki, yo, okebisi moto wana ya mabe, mpe atiki mabe na ye te to abongwani na nzela na ye ya mabe te, akokufa solo na masumu na ye, mpe yo okobikisa bomoi na yo.
20 'And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he hath done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dieth; because thou hast not warned him, in his sin he dieth, and not remembered is his righteousness that he hath done, and his blood from thy hand I require.
Soki moto ya sembo atiki kosalela bosembo na ye mpe akomi kosala mabe, nakotia libaku liboso na ye, mpe moto yango akokufa, solo. Soki okebisaki ye te, akokufa penza mpo na masumu na ye, mpe bakotikala kokanisa lisusu te bolamu nyonso oyo ye asilaki kosala; kasi nakotanga makila na ye na moto na yo.
21 And thou, because thou hast warned him — the righteous — that the righteous sin not, and he hath not sinned, he surely liveth, because he hath been warned; and thou thy soul hast delivered.'
Kasi soki, yo, okebisi moto ya sembo mpo ete asala masumu te, bongo ye mpe asali masumu te, akobikisa solo bomoi na ye, pamba te ayoki likebisi na yo, mpe yo, okobikisa bomoi na yo. »
22 And there is on me there a hand of Jehovah, and He saith to me, 'Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I do speak with thee.'
Loboko ya Yawe ezalaki likolo na ngai, mpe alobaki na ngai: « Telema mpe kende na lubwaku; nazali na makambo ya koyebisa yo kuna. »
23 And I rise and go forth unto the valley, and lo, there the honour of Jehovah is standing as the honour that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
Natelemaki mpe nakendeki na lubwaku. Nkembo ya Yawe ezalaki kuna: ezalaki lokola nkembo oyo namonaki pembeni ya ebale Kebari. Boye nakweyaki elongi na ngai kino na mabele.
24 And come into me doth a spirit, and causeth me to stand on my feet, and He speaketh with me, and saith unto me, 'Go in, be shut up in the midst of thy house.
Bongo Molimo akotaki kati na ngai mpe atelemisaki ngai na makolo na ngai. Alobaki na ngai: « Kende komikangela kati na ndako na yo.
25 'And thou, son of man, lo, they have put on thee thick bands, and have bound thee with them, and thou goest not forth in their midst;
Yo, mwana na moto, bakokanga yo basinga, bakolinga-linga yo mpo ete okoka te kobima kati na bato.
26 and thy tongue I cause to cleave unto thy palate, and thou hast been dumb, and art not to them for a reprover, for a rebellious house [are] they.
Nakokangisa lolemo na yo na monoko na yo mpo ete okoka koloba te mpe okoka kopamela bango te, pamba te bazali libota ya batomboki.
27 And in My speaking with thee, I do open thy mouth, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah; the hearer doth hear, and the forbearer doth forbear; for a rebellious house [are] they.
Kasi tango nakoloba na yo mpe nakofungola monoko na yo mpo ete oyebisa bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi. › Tika ete moto oyo akolinga koyoka ayoka, mpe oyo akoboya koyoka aboya na ye! Pamba te bazali libota ya batomboki. »
