Ezekieli 13
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying:
2 « Mwana na moto, sakola mabe na tina na basakoli ya Isalaele, oyo bazali kosakola sik’oyo; loba na ba-oyo bazali kosakola makambo oyo ezali kowuta na mitema na bango moko: ‹ Boyoka Liloba na Yawe!
Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say unto them that prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of Jehovah.
3 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Mawa na basakoli ya bazoba, oyo balandaka makanisi ya mitema na bango moko! Nzokande bamonaki eloko moko te.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 Oh Isalaele, basakoli na yo bazali lokola bambwa ya zamba kati na bisika oyo etonda na biloko ebeba.
O Israel, thy prophets have been like foxes in desert places.
5 Bomataki te na mir mpo na kobamba madusu mpe kozingela libota ya Isalaele na mir zingazinga mpo na kobatela yango na tango ya bitumba, na mokolo ya Yawe.
Ye have not gone up into the breaches, nor made up the fence for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of Jehovah.
6 Bimoniseli na bango ezali ya pamba, mpe masakoli na bango ezali ya lokuta. Balobaka: ‘Tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi,’ nzokande Ngai Yawe, natindi bango te. Mpe bazelaka ete maloba na bango ekokisama!
They have seen vanity and lying divination, that say, Jehovah saith! and Jehovah hath not sent them; and they make [them] to hope that the word will be fulfilled.
7 Boni, bimoniseli na bino ezalaka ya pamba te, mpe masakoli na bino ezalaka ya lokuta te, atako bolobaka: ‘Tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi,’ nzokande Ngai nalobi na bino ata liloba moko te?
Have ye not seen a vain vision, and spoken a lying divination, when ye say, Jehovah saith; and I have not spoken?
8 Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Mpo ete bolobaka masakoli ya pamba mpe bimoniseli ya lokuta, Ngai moko natelemeli bino, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye speak vanity, and have seen lies, therefore behold, I am against you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 Loboko na Ngai ekobeta basakoli oyo balobaka masakoli ya pamba mpe bimoniseli ya lokuta: bakozala na esika te kati na lisanga ya bato na Ngai, bakombo na bango ekokomama te kati na buku ya libota ya Isalaele, bakokoma te kino na mokili ya Isalaele. Boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Nkolo Yawe.
And my hand shall be against the prophets that see vanity and that divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, neither shall they be written in the register of the house of Israel, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
10 Boye, lokola bapengwisaka bato na Ngai tango balobaka: ‘Kimia,’ na tango kimia ezali te; lokola bapakolaka potopoto ya pembe na mir oyo bato na Ngai basili kotonga,
Because, yea because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace! and there is no peace; and one buildeth up a wall, and lo, they daub it with untempered [mortar] —
11 yebisa bato oyo bapakolaka yango potopoto ya pembe ete mir ekokweya. Nakonokisa mvula moko ya makasi mpe ya mabanga, bongo mipepe makasi ekotomboka.
say unto them which daub it with untempered [mortar] that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing rain, and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall, and a stormy wind shall burst forth.
12 Tango mir yango ekokweya, bato bakotuna bino: ‘Mosala nini penza potopoto ya pembe esali?’
And lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing with which ye have daubed [it]?
13 Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakotinda mopepe moko ya makasi, kati na kanda na Ngai, mpe nakonokisa mvula moko ya makasi mpe ya mabanga, kati na kotomboka na Ngai, mpo na kobebisa nyonso nye.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will cause to burst forth a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing rain in mine anger, and hail-stones in fury for utter destruction.
14 Nakokweyisa mir oyo bopakolaki potopoto ya pembe mpe nakolalisa yango kino na se, mpo ete miboko na yango emonana. Tango mir yango ekokweya, ekoboma bino; mpe na bongo bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.
And I will break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered [mortar], and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be destroyed in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
15 Nakokweyisela mir mpe bato oyo bapakolaki yango potopoto ya pembe kanda na Ngai; nakoloba na bino: ‘Mir ezali lisusu te! Bato oyo bazalaki kopakola yango potopoto ya pembe bazali lisusu te;
And I will accomplish my fury upon the wall, and upon them that daub it with untempered [mortar], and will say unto you, The wall is no [more], neither they that daubed it,
16 basakoli ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kosakola na tina na Yelusalemi mpe komona bimoniseli ya kimia mpo na yango, nzokande kimia ezali na yango te, bazali lisusu te, elobi Nkolo Yawe.’ ›
the prophets of Israel who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see a vision of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord Jehovah.
17 Boye, yo, mwana na moto, tala mpe telemela bilenge basi ya Isalaele, oyo bazali kosakola kolanda makanisi ya mitema na bango moko! Sakola mabe na tina na bango
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, who prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy against them,
18 mpe loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Mawa na basi oyo balataka basinga ya maji na maboko na bango mpe batongaka bitambala mpo na mito ya bato ya ndenge na ndenge mpo na kotiela bomoi na bango mitambo! Bokanisi ete bokotiela bomoi ya bato na Ngai mitambo mpo ete botikala bino moko kaka na bomoi?
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the women that sew pillows for all wrists, and that make veils for the head [of persons] of every stature to catch souls! Will ye catch the souls of my people, and will ye save your own souls alive?
19 Bozali kobebisa bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai liboso ya bato na Ngai mpo na ndambo ya mbuma ya orje mpe ndambo ya mapa! Tango bozali kokosa bato na Ngai, oyo bazali koyoka makambo ya lokuta, bozali nde koboma bato oyo basengelaki kokufa te, mpe kotika na bomoi bato oyo basengelaki te kozala na bomoi.
And will ye profane me among my people for handfuls of barley and for morsels of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that listen to lying?
20 Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Natelemeli basinga na bino ya maji, oyo bozali kosalela mpo na kotiela bato na Ngai mitambo lokola bandeke, nakokata-kata yango mpe nakolongola yango na maboko na bino; mpe nakokangola bomoi ya bato oyo bokangaki na mitambo lokola bandeke.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against your pillows, that the souls which ye catch by their means may fly away; and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, the souls that ye catch, that they may fly away.
21 Nakopasola bitambala na bino mpe nakokangola bato na Ngai na maboko na bino; bakokweya lisusu te na se ya bokonzi na bino! Mpe na bongo bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.
And I will tear your veils and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
22 Lokola bozali kolembisa mitema ya bato ya sembo na nzela ya lokuta na bino, nzokande Ngai moko nalembisaki bango mitema te; lokola bozali kolendisa bato mabe ete bakangama na etamboli na bango ya mabe mpo ete babikisa bomoi na bango te,
Because with falsehood ye have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad; and have strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, to save his life:
23 bokomona lisusu te bimoniseli na bino wana ya pamba mpe bokoloba lisusu masakoli te; nakobikisa bato na Ngai na maboko na bino, mpe, na bongo, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. › »
therefore ye shall no more see vanity, nor divine divinations; and I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
