Ezekieli 12
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, ozali kovanda kati na libota ya batomboki; bazalaka na miso ya kotala kasi bamonaka te, bazalaka na matoyi ya koyoka kasi bayokaka te, pamba te bazali libota ya batomboki.
Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the iniquities of those, who have eyes to see, and see not; and have ears to hear, and hear not: because it is a provoking house.
3 Yango wana, mwana na moto, kangisa bisaka na yo lokola moto oyo azali kokende na bowumbu mpe kende na bowumbu na moyi makasi, na miso na bango. Telema na esika oyo ozali mpe kende na esika mosusu na miso na bango; tango mosusu bakoki kososola, atako bazali libota ya batomboki.
You therefore, son of man, prepare yourself baggage for going into captivity by day in their sight; and you shall be led into captivity from your place into another place in their sight; that they may see that it is a provoking house.
4 Bimisa bisaka na yo na libanda, na moyi makasi na miso na bango; mpe na pokwa, kende ndenge bato bakendaka na bowumbu na miso na bango.
And you shall carry forth your baggage, baggage for captivity, by day before their eyes: and you shall go forth at even, as a captive goes forth, in their sight.
5 Tobola mir na miso na bango mpe bimisa bisaka na yo na lidusu oyo okosala.
Dig for yourself into the wall [of the house], and you shall pass through it in their sight:
6 Tia yango na mapeka na yo na miso na bango, mpe kende na yango na butu. Bomba elongi na yo mpo ete okoka komona mokili te, pamba te nalingi ete ozala elembo mpo na libota ya Isalaele. »
you shall be lifted up on [men's] shoulders, and shall go forth in secret: you shall cover your face, and shall not see the ground: because I have made you a sign to the house of Israel.
7 Boye, nasalaki makambo oyo atindaki ngai: na moyi, nabimisaki bisaka na ngai lokola moto oyo azali kokende na bowumbu; na pokwa, maboko na ngai etobolaki mir, bongo na butu, nabimisaki bisaka na ngai mpe natiaki yango na mapeka, na miso na bango.
And I did thus according to all that he commanded me; and I carried forth my baggage for captivity by day, and in the evening I dug through the wall for myself, and went out secretly; I was taken up on [men's] shoulders before them.
8 Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to me in the morning, saying,
9 « Mwana na moto, libota ya batomboki ya Isalaele oyo, batunaki yo te: ‹ Ozali kosala nini? ›
Son of man, have not the house of Israel, the provoking house, said to you, What do you?
10 Yebisa bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lisakoli oyo ezali na tina na mokambi oyo azali na Yelusalemi elongo na libota mobimba ya Isalaele, oyo bazali kuna. ›
Say to them, Thus says the Lord God, the Prince and the Ruler in Israel, even to all the house of Israel who are in the midst of them:
11 Loba na bango: ‹ Nazali elembo mpo na bino. › Ndenge Ngai nasali, ndenge wana mpe ekosalema epai na bango: bakokende na bowumbu lokola bakangami.
say, I am performing signs: as I have done, so shall it be to him: they shall go into banishment and captivity.
12 Mokambi oyo azali kati na bango akotia bisaka na ye na mapeka mpe akokima na butu; bakotobola mir mpo na kobimisa ye na lidusu oyo bakosala. Akobomba elongi na ye mpo ete amona mokili te.
And the prince in the midst of them shall be borne upon shoulders, and shall go forth in secret through the wall, and shall dig so that he may go forth thereby: he shall cover his face, that he may not be seen by [any] eye, and he himself shall not see the ground.
13 Nakotiela ye motambo na Ngai, mpe akokangama penza na motambo yango; nakomema ye na Babiloni, mokili ya bato ya Chalide; kasi akomona yango te mpe akokufela kuna.
And I will spread out my net upon him, and he shall be caught in my toils: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, though he shall die there.
14 Nakopanza bato na ye, oyo atielaka motema na bisika nyonso: bakalaka mpe mampinga na ye; mpe nakolanda bango na mopanga ya minu.
And I will scatter to every wind all his assistants round about him, and all that help him; and I will draw out a sword after them;
15 Bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, tango nakopanza bango kati na bikolo mosusu mpe kati na mikili mosusu.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have scattered them among the nations; and I will disperse them in the countries.
16 Kasi kati na bango, nakobikisa ndambo ya bato oyo bakokufa te na mopanga, na nzala makasi mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka, mpo ete batatola misala na bango nyonso ya mbindo kati na bikolo epai wapi bakokende. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. »
And I will leave of them [a few] men in number [spared] from the sword, and from famine, and pestilence; that they may declare all their iniquities among the nations whither they have gone; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
17 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 « Mwana na moto, zala na kolenga wana ozali kolia bilei mpe zala na pasi na motema mpe na komitungisa wana ozali komela mayi na yo;
Son of man, eat your bread with sorrow, and drink [your] water with torment and affliction.
19 mpe loba na bato ya mokili oyo: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpe ya mokili ya Isalaele: Bakolia bilei na bango na kobanga mpe bakomela mayi na bango na somo; pamba te bakobotola na makasi biloko nyonso ya mokili na bango, likolo ya mabe nyonso ya bavandi na yango.
And you shall say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, on the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread in scarcity, and shall drink their water in desolation, that the land may be desolate with all that it contains: for all that dwell in it are ungodly.
20 Bingumba oyo bato bavandaka ekobebisama mpe mokili ekotikala lisusu na bato te, mpe bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. › »
And their inhabited cities shall be laid utterly waste, and the land shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
21 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
22 « Mwana na moto, bolobaka lisese nini kati na mokili ya Isalaele: ‹ Mikolo ezali koleka mpe bimoniseli ezali kokokisama te? ›
Son of man, what is your parable on the land of Israel, that you say, The days are long, the vision has perished?
23 Loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosukisa lisese oyo mpe nakosala ete balobaka yango lisusu te kati na Isalaele. › Loba na bango lisusu: ‹ Tango ekomi pene oyo bimoniseli nyonso ekokokisama.
Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord; I will even set aside this parable, and the house of Israel shall no more at all use this parable: for you shall say to them, The days are at hand, and the import of every vision.
24 Bimoniseli mpe masakoli ya lokuta ekozala lisusu te kati na bana ya Isalaele.
For there shall no more be any false vision, nor any one prophesying flatteries in the midst of the children of Israel.
25 Kasi Ngai Yawe, nakoloba maloba oyo nalingi koloba, mpe maloba yango ekokokisama na mwa tango moke; pamba te kaka na tango oyo bozali na bomoi, bino libota ya batomboki, Ngai nakokokisa maloba nyonso oyo nakoloba, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
For I the Lord will speak my words; I will speak and perform [them], and will no more delay, for in your days, O provoking house, I will speak the word, and will perform [it], says the Lord.
26 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
27 « Mwana na moto, libota ya Isalaele bazali koloba: ‹ Emoniseli ya moto oyo ekosalema na yango lobi te mpe masakoli na ye ekokokisama sima na mibu ebele penza. ›
Son of man, behold, the provoking house of Israel boldly say, The vision which this man sees is for many days, and he prophesies for times afar off.
28 Yango wana, loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Liloba na Ngai ata moko te ekowumela lisusu mpo na kokokisama. Maloba nyonso oyo nakoloba ekokokisama, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord; Henceforth none of my words shall linger, which I shall speak: I will speak and do, says the Lord.
