Ezekieli 16
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, lakisa Yelusalemi misala na ye ya mbindo!
Son of man, testify to Jerusalem [of] her iniquities;
3 Yebisa ye boye: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi epai ya Yelusalemi: Bokoko mpe mbotama na yo etalisaka ete ozali moto ya Kanana; tata na yo azalaki moto ya Amori, mpe mama na yo azalaki moto ya Iti.
and thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord to Jerusalem; Thy root and thy birth are of the land of Chanaan: thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Chettite.
4 Na mokolo ya mbotama na yo, bakataki yo motolu te, basukolaki yo na mayi te mpo ete okoma peto, batikalaki kopakola yo mungwa te mpe bazipaki yo bilamba te.
And [as for] thy birth in the day wherein thou wast born, thou didst not bind thy breasts, and thou wast not washed in water, neither wast thou salted with salt, neither wast thou swathed in swaddling-bands.
5 Moto moko te ayokelaki yo mawa mpo na kosalela yo ata moko kati na makambo wana. Nzokande, na mokolo ya mbotama na yo, bayinaki yo mpe babwakaki yo na zamba mpo ete bazalaki na somo makasi ya komona yo.
Nor did mine eye pity thee, to do for thee one of all these things, to feel at all for thee; but thou wast cast out on the face of the field, because of the deformity of thy person, in the day wherein thou wast born.
6 Boye, Ngai nalekelaki wana mpe namonaki ndenge nini ozalaki kobunda-bunda na kufa kati na makila. Bongo nalobaki na yo: ‘Okozala na bomoi atako ozali kobaluka na makila!’
And I passed by to thee, and saw thee polluted in thy blood; and I said to thee, [Let there be] life out of thy blood:
7 Nakolisaki yo lokola nzete ya elanga. Bongo tango okolaki penza mpe oyaki monene, okomaki kitoko makasi koleka; tolo na yo ebimisaki mabele, mpe bapwale na yo ekolaki. Kasi ozalaki na yo kaka bolumbu tango nyonso, ozalaki na bilamba te.
increase; I have made thee as the springing grass of the field. So thou didst increase and grow, and didst enter into great cities: thy breasts were set, and thy hair grew, whereas thou wast naked and bare.
8 Sima na mikolo, tango nalekelaki lisusu wana mpe namonaki yo, nasosolaki ete okokisi mibu ya libala. Nakamataki elamba na Ngai mpe nazipaki bolumbu na yo; nalapaki ndayi ete nakosala boyokani ya libela elongo na yo, elobi Nkolo Yawe. Mpe na bongo, okomaki ya Ngai.
And I passed by thee and saw thee, and, behold, [it was] thy time and a time of resting; and I spread my wings over thee, and covered thy shame, and swear to thee: and I entered into covenant with thee, saith the Lord, and thou becamest mine.
9 Nasukolaki yo na mayi mpo na kolongola makila oyo ekangamaki yo na nzoto, mpe napakolaki yo mafuta ya solo kitoko.
And I washed thee in water, and washed thy blood from thee, and anointed thee with oil.
10 Nalatisaki yo elamba ya talo batonga bililingi na basinga mpe basapato ya kitoko oyo basala na baposo ya banyama; nalatisaki yo bilamba ya lino ya kitoko mpe nazipaki yo bilamba ya talo.
And I clothed thee with embroidered [garments], and clothed thee beneath with purple, and girded thee with fine linen, and clothed thee with silk,
11 Nalatisaki yo babiju, mayaka na maboko mpe na kingo.
and decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thine hands, and a necklace on thy neck.
12 Nalatisaki yo lopete na zolo, biloko ya matoyi mpe motole ya kitoko na moto.
And I put a pendant on thy nostril, and rings in thine ears, and a crown of glory on thine head.
13 Boye, olataki biloko ya wolo mpe ya palata; bilamba na yo ezalaki ya lino ya kitoko, bilamba ya talo batonga bililingi na basinga. Bilei na yo ezalaki: farine ya ble basangisa na eloko mosusu te, mafuta ya nzoyi mpe mafuta ya olive. Okomaki lisusu kitoko koleka, ozwaki lokumu makasi mpe okomaki lokola mwasi mokonzi.
So thou wast adorned with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and variegated work: thou didst eat fine flour, and oil, and honey, and didst become extremely beautiful.
14 Mpo ete kitoko na yo ekomaki ya kokoka, sango na yo epanzanaki kati na bikolo, likolo ya lokumu oyo napesaki yo, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
And thy name went forth among the nations for thy beauty: because it was perfected with elegance, [and] in the comeliness which I put upon thee, saith the Lord.
15 Kasi okomaki kotia motema na kitoko na yo mpe kosalela lokumu na yo mpo na kosala kindumba. Olakisaki bolumbu na yo na moleki nzela nyonso mpe omipesaki na ye.
Thou didst trust in thy beauty, and didst go a-whoring because of thy renown, and didst pour out thy fornication on every passer by.
16 Okamataki bilamba na yo mosusu, otongaki yango mpo na kobongisa bisambelo na yo ya likolo ya bangomba, epai wapi osalaki kindumba na yo. Likambo ya bongo etikala nanu kosalema te mpe ekotikala kosalema lisusu te!
And thou didst take of thy garments, and madest to thyself idols of needlework, and didst go a-whoring after them; therefore thou shalt never come in, nor shall [the like] take place.
17 Okamataki lisusu babiju ya kitoko oyo basala na wolo mpe na palata oyo napesaki yo, osalelaki yango bikeko ya mibali; mpe elongo na yango, omipesaki na kindumba.
And thou tookest thy fair ornaments of my gold and of my silver, of what I gave thee, and thou madest to thyself male images, and thou didst commit whoredom with them.
18 Okamataki bilamba na yo ya talo batonga bililingi na basinga, olatisaki yango bikeko wana mpe obonzelaki yango mafuta mpe ansa na Ngai.
And thou didst take thy variegated apparel and didst clothe them, and thou didst set before them mine oil and mine incense.
19 Bilei oyo Ngai nabongiselaki yo: farine ya ble, mafuta ya nzoyi mpe mafuta ya olive, oyo napesaki yo mpo ete oliaka, obonzaki yango epai ya bikeko wana lokola mbeka ya solo kitoko. Yango nde makambo oyo osalaki, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
And [thou tookest] my bread which I gave thee, ([yea] I fed thee with fine flour and oil and honey) and didst set them before them for a sweet-smelling savour: yea, it was so, saith the Lord.
20 Okamataki lisusu bana basi mpe bana mibali oyo obotelaki Ngai, obonzaki bango lisusu lokola bilei epai ya banzambe wana ya bikeko mpo ete elia bango. Boni, kindumba na yo ekokaki kaka te?
And thou tookest thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou borest, and didst sacrifice [these] to them to be destroyed. Thou didst go a-whoring as [if that were] little,
21 Esengelaki solo ete oboma bana na Ngai mpo na kobonza bango lokola makabo epai ya banzambe wana ya bikeko, na kolekisa bango na moto!
and didst slay thy children, and gavest them up in offering them to them for an expiation.
22 Mpe wana ozalaki kosala makambo na yo nyonso ya nkele mpe kindumba na yo, okanisaki ata moke te bolenge na yo: tango oyo ozalaki bolumbu mpe ozalaki kobunda-bunda kati na makila na yo.
This is beyond all thy fornication, and thou didst not remember thine infancy, when thou wast naked and bare, [and] didst live [though] defiled in thy blood.
23 Mawa! Mawa penza mpo na yo, elobi Nkolo Yawe; sima na yo kosala mabe wana nyonso,
And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, saith the Lord,
24 omitongelaki mwa ndako mpo na kosala kindumba mpe obongisaki mpo na yo moko, bisika ya bule na bisika nyonso oyo bato bakutanaka;
that thou didst build thyself a house of fornication, and didst make thyself a public place in every street;
25 otongaki yango na bisika nyonso oyo babalabala ekutana, okomisaki kitoko na yo likambo ya nkele mpe omipesaki epai ya moleki nzela nyonso: osalaki penza kindumba makasi.
and on the head of every way thou didst set up thy fornications, and didst defile thy beauty, and didst open thy feet to every passer by, and didst multiply thy fornication.
26 Osalaki kindumba na bato ya Ejipito, baninga na yo, oyo bazali na banzoto ya bingambe; mpe osalaki kindumba makasi mpo na kopesa Ngai kanda.
And thou didst go a-whoring after the children of Egypt thy neighbors, great of flesh; and didst go a-whoring, often to provoke me to anger.
27 Natombokelaki yo, nabotolaki yo bilei oyo napesaki yo mpe nakabaki yo na maboko ya banguna na yo, bingumba ya bato ya Filisitia, oyo bazalaki mpe kosepela ata moke te na bizaleli na yo ya soni mpe ya mabe.
And if I stretch out my hand against thee, then will I abolish thy statutes, and deliver [thee] up to the wills of them that hate thee, [even to] the daughters of the Philistines that turned thee aside from the way wherein thou sinned.
28 Lokola otondaka te, osalaki lisusu kindumba na bato ya Asiri; mpe, ata sima na yango, otondaki mpe kaka te.
And thou didst go a-whoring to the daughters of Assur, and not even thus wast thou satisfied; yea, thou didst go a-whoring, and wast not satisfied.
29 Ezala kati na Kanana, pembeni ya Babiloni, okobaki kaka kosala kindumba; kasi atako bongo, otondaki kaka te.
And thou didst multiply thy covenants with the land of the Chaldeans; and not even with these wast thou satisfied.
30 Yango motema ya pete ya ndenge nini penza yo ozali na yango, elobi Nkolo Yawe, mpo ete osala makambo oyo nyonso, lokola mwasi ya ndumba oyo akenda sango na mosala na ye ya kindumba!
Why should I make a covenant with thy daughter, saith the Lord, while thou doest all these things, the works of a harlot? and thou hast gone a-whoring in a threefold degree with thy daughters.
31 Tango ozalaki kotonga mwa bandako ya kindumba na bisika nyonso oyo babalabala ekutana mpe kobongisa bisika ya bule na bisika nyonso oyo bato bakutanaka, ozalaki kosala lokola mwasi ya ndumba nyonso te, pamba te ozalaki kosenga lifuti te.
Thou hast built a house of harlotry in every top of a way, and hast set up thine high place in every street; and thou didst become as a harlot gathering hires.
32 Yo ozali penza mwasi ya ekobo; osepelaka kosangisa nzoto na bapaya, kasi na mobali na yo te.
An adulteress resembles thee, taking rewards of her husband.
33 Basi nyonso oyo basalaka kindumba basengaka lifuti; kasi epai na yo, ezali yo nde opesaka bakado epai ya bamakangu na yo nyonso: na bongo, osombaka mitema na bango mpo ete bawuta bipai na bipai mpe baya kosala ekobo na yo.
She has even given rewards to all that went a-whoring after her, and thou hast given rewards to all thy lovers, yea, thou didst load them with rewards, that they should come to thee from every side for thy fornication.
34 Yo, okeseni penza na basi mosusu na kindumba na yo, pamba te mibali balukaka yo te! Yo penza, okeseni na basi mosusu ya ndumba, pamba te ofutaka mibali na esika ete bango bafuta yo.
And there has happened in thee perverseness in thy fornication beyond [other] women, and they have committed fornication with thee, in that thou givest hires over and above, and hires were not given to thee; and [thus] perverseness happened in thee.
35 Yango wana, yo mwasi ya ndumba, yoka Liloba na Yawe!
Therefore, harlot, hear the word of the Lord:
36 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola osakanelaki bomengo na yo mpe otandaki bolumbu na yo kati na kindumba na bamakangu na yo mpe na banzambe na yo nyonso ya bikeko, makambo na yo nyonso ya mbindo; mpe lokola obonzelaki banzambe wana ya bikeko makila ya bana na yo ya mibali,
Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast poured forth thy money, therefore thy shame shall be discovered in thy harlotry with thy lovers, and [with] regard to all the imaginations of thine iniquities, and for the blood of thy children which thou hast given to them.
37 nazali kosangisa bamakangu na yo nyonso oyo ozalaki kosepela elongo na bango, ba-oyo nyonso ozalaki kolinga mpe ba-oyo nyonso ozalaki koyina; nakosangisa bango wuta na bangambo nyonso mpo ete batombokela yo, mpe nakotanda yo liboso na bango mpo ete bamona bolumbu na yo nyonso.
Therefore, behold, I [will] gather all thy lovers with whom thou hast consorted, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou didst hate; and I will gather them against thee round about, and will expose thy wickedness to them, and they shall see all thy shame.
38 Nakopesa yo etumbu oyo ebongi na basi ya ndumba mpe na ba-oyo basopaka makila. Okofuta yango na motuya ya makila na yo, mpo na kanda mpe zuwa ya bolingo na Ngai oyo osambwisi.
And I will be avenged on thee with the vengeance of an adulteress, and I will bring upon thee blood of fury and jealousy.
39 Nakokaba yo na maboko ya bamakangu na yo, bakobuka mwa bandako na yo ya kindumba mpe bisika na yo ya bule; bakolongola yo na makasi bilamba mpe babiju ya kitoko mpe bakotika yo bolumbu.
And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall break down thy house of harlotry, and destroy thine high place; and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take thy proud ornaments, and leave thee naked and bare.
40 Nakotindela yo bato ebele mpo ete babamba yo mabanga mpe batobola yo na mipanga na bango.
And they shall bring multitudes upon thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and pierce thee with their swords.
41 Bakotumba bandako na yo mpe bakopesa yo etumbu na miso ya basi ebele. Nakosukisa kindumba na yo, mpe okofuta lisusu bamakangu na yo te.
And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and shall execute vengeance on thee in the sight of many women: and I will turn thee back from harlotry, and I will no more give [thee] rewards.
42 Na bongo nde kanda na Ngai epai na yo mpe zuwa ya bolingo na Ngai oyo osambwisaki ekosila; nakovanda kimia mpe nakosilika lisusu te.
So will I slacken my fury against thee, and my jealousy shall be removed from thee, and I will rest, and be no more careful [for thee].
43 Lokola obosanaki mikolo ya bolenge na yo mpe opelisaki kanda na Ngai na nzela ya makambo nyonso ya boye, Ngai mpe nakofuta yo kolanda ndenge etamboli na yo ezali, elobi Nkolo Yawe; boye, okobakisa lisusu makambo mabe te na likolo ya makambo na yo ya mbindo.
Because thou didst not remember thine infancy, and thou didst grieve me in all these things; therefore, behold, I have recompensed thy ways upon thine head, saith the Lord: for thus hast thou wrought ungodliness above all thine [other] iniquities.
44 Moto nyonso oyo alobaka na masese akoloba lisese oyo na tina na yo: ‘Mwana mwasi azalaka kaka ndenge mama na ye azali.’
These are all the things they have spoken against thee in a proverb, saying,
45 Ozali solo mwana mwasi ya mama na yo, oyo asambwisaki mobali na ye mpe bana na ye ya mibali; ozali solo ndeko mwasi ya bandeko na yo ya basi oyo batiolaki mibali mpe bana na bango. Mama na bino azalaki moto ya mokili ya Iti, mpe tata na yo azalaki moto ya Amori.
As is the mother, so is thy mother's daughter: thou art she that has rejected her husband and her children; and the sisters of thy sisters have rejected their husbands and their children: your mother was a Chettite, and [your] father an Amorite.
46 Kulutu na yo ya mwasi, ezali Samari oyo avandi na ngambo ya nor ya mokili na yo elongo na bana na ye ya basi; leki na yo ya mwasi ezali Sodome oyo avandi na ngambo ya sude ya mokili na yo elongo na bana na ye ya basi.
Your elder sister who dwells on thy left hand is Samaria, she and her daughters: and thy younger sister, that dwells on the right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
47 Otambolaki kaka te na banzela na bango mpe olandaki kaka te bizaleli na bango ya mbindo, kasi okomaki mabe koleka bango, na etamboli na yo nyonso.
Yet notwithstanding thou hast not walked in their ways, neither hast thou done according to their iniquities within a little, but thou hast exceeded them in all thy ways.
48 Na Kombo na Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe, Sodome, ndeko na yo ya mwasi, elongo na bana na ye ya basi batikala nanu kosala te makambo oyo yo elongo na bana na yo ya basi bosali.
[As] I live, saith the Lord, this Sodom and her daughters have not done as thou and thy daughters have done.
49 Tala sik’oyo masumu ya Sodome, ndeko na yo ya mwasi: ye elongo na bana na ye ya basi bazalaki bato ya lolendo, mpo ete batondaki na bomengo mpe eloko moko te ezalaki kotungisa bango; basungaki ata moke te babola mpe bato bakelela.
Moreover this was the sin of thy sister Sodom, pride: she and her daughters lived in pleasure, in fullness of bread [and] in abundance: this belonged to her and her daughters, and they helped not the hand of the poor and needy.
50 Bakomaki bato ya lofundu makasi mpe bakomaki kosala makambo ya mbindo na miso na Ngai. Yango wana, nalimwisi bango ndenge ozali komona.
And they boasted, and wrought iniquities before me: so I cut them off as I saw [fit].
51 Samari asalaki te ata kati-kati ya masumu oyo yo osalaki. Osalaki makambo ya mbindo koleka bango; mpe na nzela ya makambo na yo nyonso ya mbindo, osalaki ete bandeko na yo ya basi bamonana lokola bato ya sembo koleka.
Also Samaria has not sinned according to half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine iniquities beyond them, and thou hast justified thy sisters in all thine iniquities which thou hast committed.
52 Sik’oyo, yo oyo ozalaki kosambisa bandeko na yo ya basi, lata soni na yo! Lokola masumu na yo ezalaki kutu mabe koleka oyo ya bango, yango wana bazalaki komonana lokola bato ya sembo koleka. Yoka sik’oyo soni mpo ete osili kosambwa, omonisi bandeko na yo ya basi lokola bato ya sembo koleka!
Thou therefore bear thy punishment, for that thou hast corrupted thy sisters by thy sins which thou hast committed beyond them; and thou hast made them [appear] more righteous than thyself: thou therefore be ashamed, and bear thy dishonour, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 Yango wana, nakozongisa lisusu bolamu ya Sodome mpe ya Samari, elongo na bingumba na yango; mpe yo, nakozongisa bolamu na yo kati na yango
And I will turn their captivity, [even] the captivity of Sodom and her daughters; and I will turn the captivity of Samaria and her daughters; and I will turn thy captivity in the midst of them:
54 mpo ete oyoka lisusu soni te mpe osambwa lisusu te likolo ya misala na yo mpe likolo ya makambo oyo ezalaki kobondisa bango.
that thou mayest bear thy punishment, and be dishonoured for all that thou hast done in provoking me to anger.
55 Sodome mpe Samari elongo na bingumba na yango ekozonga ndenge ezalaki liboso; mpe yo elongo na bingumba na yo, nakozongisa bino ndenge bozalaki liboso.
And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall be restored as they were at the beginning, and thou and thy daughters shall be restored as ye were at the beginning.
56 Na mokolo ya lolendo na yo, ozalaki kutu kolobela mabe ya Sodome, ndeko na yo,
And surely thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the days of thy pride:
57 liboso ete mabe na yo eyebana. Kasi sik’oyo, bingumba ya Siri elongo na bingumba nyonso oyo ezali zingazinga na yango mpe bingumba ya bato ya Filisitia ekomi koseka yo.
before thy wickedness was discovered, even now thou art the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all that are round about her, [even] of the daughters of the Philistines that compass thee round about.
58 Okomi sik’oyo komema mikumba ya makambo na yo ya mbindo mpe ya misala na yo ya mabe, elobi Yawe.
[As for] thine ungodliness and thine iniquities, thou hast borne them, saith the Lord.
59 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosalela yo kolanda misala na yo, pamba te otiolaki ndayi na Ngai na nzela ya kobuka boyokani na Ngai elongo na yo.
Thus saith the Lord; I will even do to thee as thou hast done, as thou hast dealt shamefully in these things to transgress my covenant.
60 Kasi Ngai, nakokanisa lisusu boyokani na Ngai, oyo nasalaki elongo na yo tango ozalaki nanu elenge, mpe nakosala lisusu mpo na yo, boyokani oyo ekozala na suka te.
And I will remember my covenant [made] with thee in the days of thine infancy, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.
61 Boye, okokanisa etamboli na yo mpe okoyoka soni tango okoyamba bandeko na yo ya basi, ezala ba-oyo bazali mikolo na yo to ba-oyo bazali baleki na yo; nakopesa yo bango lokola bana na yo ya basi, kasi ekozala te kolanda boyokani na Ngai elongo na yo.
Then thou shalt remember thy way, and shalt be utterly dishonoured when thou receivest thine elder sisters with thy younger ones: and I will give them to thee for building up, but not by thy covenant.
62 Ngai nakosala boyokani na Ngai elongo na yo; mpe na bongo, okososola solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe,
And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord:
63 mpo ete okanisa yango lisusu, oyokela yango soni mpe ofungola lisusu monoko na yo te mpo na soni, tango nakolimbisa masumu na yo mpo na mabe nyonso oyo osalaki, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
that thou mayest remember, and be ashamed, and mayest no more be able to open thy mouth for thy shame, when I am reconciled to thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord.
