< Kobima 9 >

1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Kende koyebisa Faraon: ‹ Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Ba-Ebre, alobi: ‘Tika bato na Ngai kokende kogumbamela Ngai!’
And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, and you have spoken to him, Thus said YHWH, God of the Hebrews: Send My people away, and they serve Me,
2 Soki oboyi kotika bango kokende mpe okobi kokanga bango,
for if you are refusing to send [them] away, and are still keeping hold on them,
3 loboko na Yawe ekomema mopepe ya bokono ya somo kati na bibwele na yo, oyo ezali na elanga: bampunda, ba-ane, bashamo, bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba.
behold, the hand of YHWH is on your livestock which [are] in the field, on horses, on donkeys, on camels, on herd, and on flock—a very grievous pestilence.
4 Kasi Yawe akotia bokeseni kati na bibwele ya bana ya Isalaele mpe ya bato ya Ejipito, pamba te nyama moko te ya bana ya Isalaele ekokufa. › »
And YHWH has separated between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, and there does not die a thing of all the sons of Israel;
5 Yawe abongisaki tango mpe alobaki: « Lobi, Yawe akokokisa likambo oyo na mokili. »
and YHWH sets an appointed time, saying, Tomorrow YHWH does this thing in the land.”
6 Mpe mokolo oyo elandaki, Yawe akokisaki yango: bibwele nyonso ya bato ya Ejipito ekufaki, kasi ebwele ata moko te ya bana ya Isalaele ekufaki.
And YHWH does this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt die, and of the livestock of the sons of Israel not one has died;
7 Faraon atindaki bato mpo na kolandela likambo oyo mpe bamonaki ete ata ebwele moko te kati na bibwele ya bana ya Isalaele ekufaki. Atako bongo, Faraon ayeisaki lisusu motema na ye makasi mpe aboyaki kaka kotika bato kokende.
and Pharaoh sends, and behold, not even one of the livestock of Israel has died, and the heart of Pharaoh is hard, and he has not sent the people away.
8 Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron: « Botondisa maboko na bino na putulu oyo ewuti na fulu ya moto makasi, mpe tika ete Moyize abwaka yango likolo, na miso ya Faraon.
And YHWH says to Moses and to Aaron, “Take for yourselves the fullness of your handfuls—soot of a furnace, and Moses has sprinkled it toward the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh,
9 Yango ekopanzana na mokili mobimba ya Ejipito mpe ekobimisa, kati na Ejipito mobimba, na banzoto ya bato mpe ya bibwele, babibon oyo ekokoma bapota ya kopola. »
and it has become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and it has become on man and on livestock a boil breaking forth [with] blisters in all the land of Egypt.”
10 Bazwaki putulu na fulu ya moto mpe batelemaki liboso ya Faraon. Moyize abwakaki yango likolo mpe ebimisaki babibon oyo ekomaki bapota ya kopola na banzoto ya bato mpe ya bibwele.
And they take the soot of the furnace, and stand before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkles it toward the heavens, and it is a boil [with] blisters breaking forth on man and on beast;
11 Bato ya soloka bakokaki te kotelema liboso ya Moyize likolo ya bapota oyo ezalaki na banzoto na bango mpe ya bato nyonso ya Ejipito.
and the enchanters have not been able to stand before Moses because of the boil, for the boil has been on the enchanters, and on all the Egyptians.
12 Kasi Yawe akomisaki lisusu motema ya Faraon makasi mpe Faraon ayokelaki te Moyize mpe Aron, ndenge kaka Yawe alobaki yango na Moyize.
And YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh, and he has not listened to them, as YHWH has spoken to Moses.
13 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Lamuka na tongo-tongo, kende kokutana na Faraon mpe loba na ye: ‹ Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Ba-Ebre, alobi: Tika bato na Ngai kokende kogumbamela Ngai.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Rise early in the morning, and station yourself before Pharaoh, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH, God of the Hebrews: Send My people away, and they serve Me,
14 Ya mbala oyo, nakotinda mopepe na Ngai nyonso ya bokono epai na yo, epai ya bakalaka na yo mpe epai ya bato na yo, mpo oyeba ete moko te azali lokola Ngai, na mokili mobimba.
for at this time I am sending all My plagues to your heart, and on your servants, and on your people, so that you know that there is none like Me in all the earth,
15 Pamba te kino sik’oyo, nakokaki kosembola loboko na Ngai mpe kotindela yo elongo na bato na yo nyonso, mopepe ya bokono oyo ekokaki kolimwisa bino na mokili.
for now I have put forth My hand, and I strike you, and your people, with pestilence, and you are hidden from the earth.
16 Kasi natikaki yo na bomoi mpo na tina oyo: kotalisa yo nguya na Ngai mpe kosala ete lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai epanzana na mokili mobimba.
And yet for this I have caused you to stand, so as to show you My power, and for the sake of declaring My Name in all the earth;
17 Lokola ozali kokoba koboya kotika bato na Ngai kokende,
still you are exalting yourself against My people—so as not to send them away;
18 lobi na ngonga oyo, nakobetisa mvula ya mabanga ya moto makasi, oyo etikala nanu kobeta te wuta mokili ya Ejipito ezala.
behold, I am raining very grievous hail about [this] time tomorrow, such as has not been in Egypt from the day of its founding and until now.
19 Sik’oyo, pesa mitindo ete bamema na ebombelo, bibwele na yo mpe biloko nyonso oyo ozali na yango kati na elanga. Pamba te mvula ya mabanga ekokweyela mpe ekoboma moto mpe nyama nyonso oyo bokokotisa kuna te to oyo ekotikala kati na elanga. › »
And now, send, strengthen your livestock and all that you have in the field; every man and beast which is found in the field, and is not gathered into the house—the hail has come down on them, and they have died.”
20 Kati na basali ya Faraon, ba-oyo babangaki Liloba na Yawe bakotisaki na lombangu bawumbu mpe bibwele na bango kati na bandako.
He who is fearing the word of YHWH among the servants of Pharaoh has caused his servants and his livestock to flee to the houses;
21 Kasi ba-oyo babangaki te Liloba na Yawe, batikaki bawumbu mpe bibwele na bango kati na elanga.
and he who has not set his heart to the word of YHWH leaves his servants and his livestock in the field.
22 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Sembola loboko na yo na likolo mpo ete mvula ya mabanga enoka na mokili mobimba ya Ejipito: likolo ya bato, ya bibwele mpe ya matiti nyonso oyo ebotaka na elanga kati na Ejipito. »
And YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch forth your hand toward the heavens, and there is hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.”
23 Tango Moyize asembolaki lingenda na ye na likolo, Yawe abetisaki bakake mpe mvula ya mabanga. Bakake ebetaki na mokili. Bongo Yawe anokisaki mvula ya mabanga na mokili ya Ejipito.
And Moses stretches out his rod toward the heavens, and YHWH has given voices and hail, and fire goes toward the earth, and YHWH rains hail on the land of Egypt,
24 Boye mvula ya mabanga mpe bakake ebetaki. Ezalaki mvula moko ya makasi penza oyo etikala nanu kobeta te wuta Ejipito ekoma ekolo.
and there is hail, and fire catching itself in the midst of the hail, very grievous, such as has not been in all the land of Egypt since it has become a nation.
25 Ebomaki, kati na Ejipito, nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na elanga, ezala bato to bibwele; ebebisaki matiti nyonso ya elanga mpe ebukaki banzete nyonso.
And the hail strikes all that [is] in the field in all the land of Egypt, from man even to beast, and the hail has struck every herb of the field, and it has broken every tree of the field;
26 Kasi enokaki te kati na etuka ya Gosheni epai wapi bana ya Isalaele bazalaki.
only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel [are], there has been no hail.
27 Faraon abengisaki Moyize mpe Aron, alobaki na bango: — Ya mbala oyo, nasali lisumu. Yawe azali sembo; ngai mpe bato na ngai tosali mabe.
And Pharaoh sends, and calls for Moses and for Aaron, and says to them, “I have sinned this time—YHWH [is] the righteous, and I and my people [are] the wicked,
28 Bobondela Yawe mpo ete asilisa mvula ya mabanga mpe bakake. Bongo ngai nakotika bino kokende, mpe bino bokowumela lisusu awa te.
make supplication to YHWH, and plead that there be no voices of God and hail, and I send you away, and you do not add to remain.”
29 Moyize azongisaki: — Tango nakobima na engumba, nakotombola maboko na ngai mpo na kobondela Yawe. Bakake ekosila mpe mvula ya mabanga ekonoka lisusu te, mpo ete oyeba ete mokili ezali ya Yawe.
And Moses says to him, “At my going out of the city, I spread my palms to YHWH—the voices cease, and there is no more hail, so that you know that the earth [is] YHWH’s;
30 Kasi nayebi ete, yo elongo na bakalaka na yo, bokobanga na bino kaka Yawe Nzambe te.
but you and your servants—I have known that you are not yet afraid of the face of YHWH God.”
31 Lino mpe Orje ebebaki, pamba te lino ebimisaki mito mpe Orje ebimisaki bafololo.
And the flax and the barley have been struck, for the barley [is] budding, and the flax forming flowers,
32 Ble mpe epotele ebebaki te, pamba te tango na yango ya kobota ekokaki nanu te.
and the wheat and the rye have not been struck, for they are late.
33 Bongo Moyize atikaki Faraon mpe abimaki libanda ya engumba. Atombolaki maboko na ye epai na Yawe; boye bakake mpe mvula ya mabanga etikaki kobeta, mpe mvula esilaki kati na Ejipito.
And Moses goes out from Pharaoh, [from] the city, and spreads his hands to YHWH, and the voices and the hail cease, and rain has not been poured out to the earth;
34 Tango Faraon amonaki ete mvula ya mabanga mpe bakake etiki kobeta, asalaki lisusu lisumu. Ye mpe bakalaka na ye bayeisaki lisusu mitema na bango makasi.
and Pharaoh sees that the rain has ceased, and the hail and the voices, and he continues to sin, and hardens his heart, he and his servants;
35 Boye motema ya Faraon ekomaki penza makasi mpe aboyaki kotika bana ya Isalaele kokende, ndenge kaka Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Moyize.
and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he has not sent the sons of Israel away, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses.
