< Ezekieli 16 >
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 « Mwana na moto, lakisa Yelusalemi misala na ye ya mbindo!
Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations.
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 God to Jerusalem: Thy root, and thy nativity is of the land of Chanaan, thy father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite.
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 when thou wast born, in the day of thy nativity thy navel wits not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for thy health, nor salted with salt, nor swaddled with clouts.
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.
No eye had pity on thee to do any of these things for thee, out of compassion to thee: but thou wast cast out upon the face of the earth in the abjection of thy soul, in the day that 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 passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood. and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in 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.
I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman’s ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.
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 thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: 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 with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I 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 embroidery, and shed thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.
11 Nalatisaki yo babiju, mayaka na maboko mpe na kingo.
I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.
12 Nalatisaki yo lopete na zolo, biloko ya matoyi mpe motole ya kitoko na moto.
And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy 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.
And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine hour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.
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 renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.
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.
But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.
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 taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.
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 beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication 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 tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.
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 my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.
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 hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and best sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?
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!
Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.
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.
And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own 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 (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)
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 also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house 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.
At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.
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 hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.
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.
Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.
28 Lokola otondaka te, osalaki lisusu kindumba na bato ya Asiri; mpe, ata sima na yango, otondaki mpe kaka te.
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.
29 Ezala kati na Kanana, pembeni ya Babiloni, okobaki kaka kosala kindumba; kasi atako bongo, otondaki kaka te.
Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast then 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!
Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?
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.
Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,
32 Yo ozali penza mwasi ya ekobo; osepelaka kosangisa nzoto na bapaya, kasi na mobali na yo te.
But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over 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.
Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.
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 it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.
35 Yango wana, yo mwasi ya ndumba, yoka Liloba na Yawe!
Therefore, O 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 God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest 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.
Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.
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 judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in 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 destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.
40 Nakotindela yo bato ebele mpo ete babamba yo mabanga mpe batobola yo na mipanga na bango.
And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay 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 thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.
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.
And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.
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 hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.
44 Moto nyonso oyo alobaka na masese akoloba lisese oyo na tina na yo: ‘Mwana mwasi azalaka kaka ndenge mama na ye azali.’
Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.
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.
Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.
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.
And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy 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.
But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they 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 God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.
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.
Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.
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 were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.
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.
And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.
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!
Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that 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 bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee 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 shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.
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 return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.
56 Na mokolo ya lolendo na yo, ozalaki kutu kolobela mabe ya Sodome, ndeko na yo,
And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day 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 malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.
58 Okomi sik’oyo komema mikumba ya makambo na yo ya mbindo mpe ya misala na yo ya mabe, elobi Yawe.
Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.
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.
For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the 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 with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with 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.
And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, 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 confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.
