Ezekiel 37
1 There hath been upon me a hand of Jehovah, and He taketh me forth in the Spirit of Jehovah, and doth place me in the midst of the valley, and it is full of bones,
Loboko ya Yawe ezalaki likolo na ngai; bongo Yawe abimisaki ngai na nzela ya Molimo na Ye mpe amemaki ngai kino na kati-kati ya lubwaku moko etonda na mikuwa.
2 and He causeth me to pass over by them, all round about, and lo, very many [are] on the face of the valley, and lo, very dry.
Atambolisaki ngai na bangambo nyonso kati na mikuwa yango: namonaki ete ezali ebele penza mpe ekawuka, kati na lubwaku yango.
3 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, do these bones live?' And I say, 'O Lord Jehovah, Thou — Thou hast known.'
Atunaki ngai: — Mwana na moto, mikuwa oyo ekoki lisusu kozala na bomoi? Nazongisaki: — Oh Nkolo Yawe, Yo kaka nde oyebi!
4 And He saith unto me, 'Prophesy concerning these bones, and thou hast said unto them: O dry bones, hear a word of Jehovah:
Bongo alobaki na ngai: — Sakola epai ya mikuwa oyo mpe yebisa yango: « Eh bino mikuwa ekawuka, boyoka Liloba na Yawe!
5 Thus said the Lord Jehovah to these bones: Lo, I am bringing into you a spirit, and ye have lived,
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakotia pema kati na bino mpe bokozwa lisusu bomoi.
6 and I have given on you sinews, and cause flesh to come up upon you, and covered you over with skin, and given in you a spirit, and ye have lived, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.'
Nakotia bino misisa mpe misuni, nakolatisa bino poso ya nzoto mpe nakotia pema kati na bino. Boye bokozwa lisusu bomoi, bongo bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. »
7 And I have prophesied as I have been commanded, and there is a noise, as I am prophesying, and lo, a rushing, and draw near do the bones, bone unto its bone.
Boye, nasakolaki ndenge kaka atindaki ngai. Bongo wana nazalaki nanu kosakola, makelele moko ya makasi eyokanaki; mpe, mbala moko, mikuwa yango ekomaki koningana mpe kosangana moko na moko na mosusu.
8 And I beheld, and lo, on them [are] sinews, and flesh hath come up, and cover them doth skin over above — and spirit there is none in them.
Wana nazalaki kotala, namonaki misisa mpe misuni kobima na mikuwa yango mpe poso ya nzoto kozipa yango, kasi ezalaki na pema te.
9 And He saith unto me: 'Prophesy unto the Spirit, prophesy, son of man, and thou hast said unto the Spirit: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: From the four winds come in, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they do live.'
Yawe alobaki na ngai: — Mwana na moto, sakola epai ya pema, sakola mpe loba na pema: « Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh pema, yaka wuta na bisika nyonso mopepe ebimelaka mpe kota kati na banzoto oyo mpo ete ezwa lisusu bomoi! »
10 And I have prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit cometh into them, and they live, and stand on their feet — a very very great force.
Nasakolaki ndenge kaka atindaki ngai; bongo pema ekotaki kati na yango mpe ezwaki lisusu bomoi. Batelemaki mpe bazalaki mampinga moko ya monene.
11 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; lo, they are saying: Dried up have our bones, And perished hath our hope, We have been cut off by ourselves.
Alobaki na ngai: — Mwana na moto, mikuwa oyo ezali libota mobimba ya Isalaele! Bazali koloba: « Mikuwa na biso ekawuki, elikya na biso esili, bomoi na biso ebebi! »
12 Therefore, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am opening your graves, And have brought you up out of your graves, O My people, And brought you in unto the land of Israel.
Yango wana, sakola mpe loba na bango: « Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh bato na Ngai, nakofungola bakunda na bino mpe nakobimisa bino kuna, bongo nakozongisa bino na mabele ya Isalaele.
13 And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My opening your graves, And in My bringing you up out of your graves, O My people.
Mpe bino, bato na Ngai, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, tango nakofungola bakunda na bino mpe nakobimisa bino kuna!
14 And I have given My Spirit in you, and ye have lived, And I have caused you to rest on your land, And ye have known that I Jehovah, I have spoken, and I have done [it], An affirmation of Jehovah.'
Nakotia Molimo na Ngai kati na bino, mpe bokozwa lisusu bomoi; bongo nakovandisa bino na mabele na bino. Boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai Yawe nde nalobaki mpe nakokisaki yango, elobi Yawe. »
15 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
16 'And thou, son of man, take to thee one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions,
« Mwana na moto, kamata eteni ya libaya mpe koma na likolo na yango: ‹ Mpo na Yuda mpe mpo na bana ya Isalaele oyo basangani na ye. › Kamata eteni mosusu ya libaya mpe koma na likolo na yango: ‹ Mpo na Jozefi, nzete ya Efrayimi, mpe mpo na libota mobimba ya Isalaele oyo esangani na ye. ›
17 and bring them near one unto another, to thee, for one stick, and they have become one in thy hand.
Kangisa yango mpe komisa yango libaya moko mpo ete ezala eloko moko kati na loboko na yo.
18 'And when sons of thy people speak unto thee, saying, Dost thou not declare to us what these [are] to thee?
Soki bandeko na yo batuni yo: ‹ Olingi koloba na biso nini? Makambo oyo elingi kolakisa nini? ›
19 Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand.
Okozongisela bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakozwa libaya ya Jozefi, oyo ezali kati na loboko ya Efrayimi, mpe bato ya mabota ya Isalaele oyo basangani na ye; nakokangisa yango na libaya ya Yuda. Nakokomisa yango nzete moko mpe ekokoma eloko moko kati na loboko na Ngai. ›
20 And the sticks on which thou writest have been in thy hand before thine eyes,
Okosimba kati na loboko na yo, na miso na bango, mabaya oyo okomaki;
21 and speak thou unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations whither they have gone, And have gathered them from round about, And I have brought them in unto their land.
mpe okoloba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakobimisa bana ya Isalaele wuta na bikolo ya zingazinga epai wapi bakendeki mpe nakozongisa bango na mabele na bango.
22 And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again.
Nakokomisa bango ekolo kaka moko kati na mokili, na likolo ya bangomba ya Isalaele. Ekozala kaka na mokonzi moko oyo akokonza bango; mpe bakozala lisusu bikolo mibale te to bakokabwana lisusu na bokonzi mibale te.
23 Nor are they defiled any more with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I — I am to them for God.
Bakomikomisa lisusu mbindo te na nzela ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe ya bililingi na bango ya mabe to na nzela ya misala na bango ya mabe; pamba te nakobikisa bango wuta na bisika oyo bazalaki kovanda epai wapi basalaki masumu mpe nakopetola bango; bakozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Nzambe na bango.
24 And My servant David [is] king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them.
Mosali na Ngai, Davidi, akozala mokonzi na bango, mpe bango nyonso bakozala na mobateli bibwele kaka moko, bakotosa mibeko na Ngai mpe bakobatela na bokebi mitindo na Ngai.
25 And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son's sons — unto the age, And David My servant [is] their prince — to the age.
Bakovanda lisusu na mokili oyo napesaki na Jakobi, mosali na Ngai, mokili oyo batata na bino bavandaki: bango, bana na bango ya mibali mpe bakitani na bango ya mibali bakovanda kuna mpo na libela; mpe mosali na Ngai, Davidi, akozala mokambi na bango mpo na libela.
26 And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant age-during it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst — to the age.
Nakosala boyokani ya kimia elongo na bango: ekozala boyokani ya libela na libela. Nakolendisa bango, nakokomisa bango ebele koleka mpe nakotia Esika na Ngai ya bule kati na bango mpo na libela.
27 And My tabernacle hath been over them, And I have been to them for God, And they have been to Me for a people.
Nakotia ndako na Ngai kati na bango; nakozala Nzambe na bango, mpe bango, bakozala bato na Ngai.
28 And known have the nations that I Jehovah am sanctifying Israel, In My sanctuary being in their midst — to the age!'
Bongo bato ya bikolo mosusu bakoyeba solo ete Ngai Yawe nde nakomisi Isalaele bule tango nakotia Esika na Ngai ya bule kati na bango mpo na libela. › »
