Ezekieli 13
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to 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, and you shall prophesy, and shall say to them, Hear you the word of the Lord:
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 says the Lord, Woe to them that prophesy out of their own heart, and who see nothing at all.
4 Oh Isalaele, basakoli na yo bazali lokola bambwa ya zamba kati na bisika oyo etonda na biloko ebeba.
Your prophets, O Israel, are like foxes in the deserts.
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.
They have not continued steadfast, and they have gathered flocks against the house of Israel, they that say,
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!
In the day of the Lord, have not stood, seeing false [visions], prophesying vanities, who say, The Lord says, and the Lord has not sent them, and they began [to try] to confirm the word.
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 you not seen a false vision? and spoken vain prophecies?
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.
And therefore say, Thus says the Lord; Because your words are false, and your prophecies are vain, therefore, behold, I am against you, says the Lord.
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 I will stretch forth my hand against the prophets that see false [visions], and those that utter vanities: they shall not partake of the instruction of my people, neither shall they be written in the roll of the house of Israel, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
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 they have caused my people to err, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and one builds a wall, and they plaster it, —it shall fall.
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 to them that plaster [it], It shall fall; and there shall be a flooding rain; and I will send great stones upon their joinings, and they shall fall; and there shall be a sweeping wind, and it shall be broken.
12 Tango mir yango ekokweya, bato bakotuna bino: ‘Mosala nini penza potopoto ya pembe esali?’
And behold! the wall has fallen; and will they not say to you, Where is your plaster wherewith you plastered [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 says the Lord; I will even cause to burst forth a sweeping blast with fury, and there shall be a flooding rain in my wrath; and in [my] fury I will bring on great stones for complete 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 which you have plastered, and it shall fall; and I will lay it on the ground, and its foundations shall be discovered, and it shall fall; and you shall be consumed with rebukes: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
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 wrath upon the wall, and upon them that plaster it; it shall fall: and I said to you, The wall is not, nor they that plaster 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.’ ›
even the prophets of Israel, who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see [visions of] peace for her, and there is no peace, says the Lord.
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 you, son of man, set your face firmly against the daughters of your people, that 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 you shall say, Thus says the Lord, Woe to the [women] that sew pillows under every elbow, and make kerchiefs on the head of every stature to pervert souls! The souls of my people are perverted, and they have saved 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 they have dishonored me before my people for a handful of barley, and for pieces of bread, to kill the souls which should not die, and to save alive the souls which should not live, while you speak to a people hearing vain speeches.
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.
Therefore thus says the Lord God, Behold, I am against your pillows, whereby you there confound souls, and I will tear them away from your arms, and will set at liberty their souls which you pervert to scatter them.
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 kerchiefs, and will rescue my people out of your hands, and they shall no longer be in your hands to be confounded; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
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 you have perverted the heart of the righteous, whereas I perverted him not, and [that] in order to strengthen the hands of the wicked, that he should not at all turn from his evil way and live:
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 you shall not see false [visions], and you shall no more utter prophecies: but I will deliver my people out of your hand; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
