< Ezekieli 16 >
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, lakisa Yelusalemi misala na ye ya mbindo!
“Son of man, inform Jerusalem about 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 declare, 'The Lord Yahweh says this to Jerusalem: Your beginning and your birth took place in the land of Canaan; your father was an Amorite, and your mother was a Hittite.
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.
On the day of your birth, your mother did not cut your navel, nor did she purify you in water or rub you down with salt, or wrap cloth around you.
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 compassion for you to do any of these things for you, to be compassionate toward you. On the day that you were born, with loathing for your life, you were thrown out into the open field.
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!’
But I passed by you, and I saw you writhing in your own blood; so I said to you in your blood, “Live!” I said to you in your blood, “Live!”
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 made you grow like a plant in a field. You multiplied and became great, and you became the jewel of jewels. Your breasts became firm, and your hair grew thick, though you had been 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.
I passed by you again, and I saw you. See! the time of love came for you, so I spread my robe over you and covered your nakedness. Then I swore to you and brought you into a covenant—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—and you became mine.
9 Nasukolaki yo na mayi mpo na kolongola makila oyo ekangamaki yo na nzoto, mpe napakolaki yo mafuta ya solo kitoko.
So I washed you with water and rinsed your blood off you, and I anointed you 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.
I dressed you in embroidered clothes and placed leather sandals on your feet. I wrapped you with fine linen and covered you with silk.
11 Nalatisaki yo babiju, mayaka na maboko mpe na kingo.
Next I adorned you with jewelry, and I put bracelets on your hands, and a chain around your neck.
12 Nalatisaki yo lopete na zolo, biloko ya matoyi mpe motole ya kitoko na moto.
I put a nose ring in your nostrils and earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your 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 you were adorned with gold and silver, and you were dressed in fine linen, silk, and embroidered clothes; you ate fine flour, honey, and oil, and you were very beautiful, and you became 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.
Your fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect in the majesty that I had given to you—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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 you trusted in your own beauty, and you acted like a prostitute because of your fame; you poured out your acts of prostitution on everyone who passed by, so that your beauty became 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!
Then you took your clothes and with them you made high places for yourself decorated in various colors, and there you acted like a prostitute. This should not have happened. Nor should such a thing exist.
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.
You took the fine jewels of the gold and silver that I gave you, and you made for yourself male figures, and you did with them as a prostitute would do.
18 Okamataki bilamba na yo ya talo batonga bililingi na basinga, olatisaki yango bikeko wana mpe obonzelaki yango mafuta mpe ansa na Ngai.
You took your embroidered garments and covered them, and you set my oils and perfumes 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.
My bread I gave you—made with fine flour, oil, and honey—you set before them for a fragrant aroma, for this is what happened—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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?
Then you took your sons and daughters whom you bore for me, and you sacrificed them to the images to be devoured as food. Are your acts of prostitution a small matter?
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!
You slaughtered my children to the idols and made them pass through the 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.
In all your abominations and your acts of prostitution you have not thought about the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare as you thrashed about in your blood.
23 Mawa! Mawa penza mpo na yo, elobi Nkolo Yawe; sima na yo kosala mabe wana nyonso,
Woe! Woe to you!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—therefore, in addition to all this wickedness,
24 omitongelaki mwa ndako mpo na kosala kindumba mpe obongisaki mpo na yo moko, bisika ya bule na bisika nyonso oyo bato bakutanaka;
you built yourself a vaulted chamber in every public place.
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.
You built your high place at the head of every road and made your beauty a disgrace, and you spread your legs to anyone who passed by, and you multiplied your acts of prostitution.
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.
You have acted like a prostitute with the Egyptians, your lustful neighbors, and you committed many more acts of prostitution, provoking 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.
See! I will strike you with my hand and cut off your food. I will hand your life over to your enemies, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your obscene behavior.
28 Lokola otondaka te, osalaki lisusu kindumba na bato ya Asiri; mpe, ata sima na yango, otondaki mpe kaka te.
You have acted like a prostitute with the Assyrians because you could not be satisfied. You acted like a prostitute and still were not satisfied.
29 Ezala kati na Kanana, pembeni ya Babiloni, okobaki kaka kosala kindumba; kasi atako bongo, otondaki kaka te.
You performed many more acts of prostitution in the land of the merchants of Chaldea, and even this did not satisfy you.
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!
How sick is your heart—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—that you would do all these things, deeds 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.
You have built your high places at the head of every street and made your vaulted chamber in every public place. Yet you were not like a prostitute because you refused to take payment.
32 Yo ozali penza mwasi ya ekobo; osepelaka kosangisa nzoto na bapaya, kasi na mobali na yo te.
You adulterous woman, you accept strangers instead of your 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.
People give payment to every prostitute, but you give your wages to all your lovers and bribe them to come to you from all around for your acts of prostitution.
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.
So there is a difference between you and those other women, since no one goes to you to ask you to sleep with them. Instead, you pay them. No one pays you.
35 Yango wana, yo mwasi ya ndumba, yoka Liloba na Yawe!
Therefore, you prostitute, listen to the word of Yahweh.
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,
The Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have poured out your lust and uncovered your nakedness through your acts of prostitution with your lovers and with all your detestable idols, and because you gave them your children's blood,
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 your lovers that you have met, all those whom you loved and all those whom you hated, and I will gather them against you on every side. I will uncover your nakedness to them so they see all your 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.
For I will punish you for adultery and the shedding of blood, and I will bring on you the bloodshed of my anger and passion.
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.
I will give you into their hands so they will throw down your vaulted chamber and break down your high places and they will strip you of your clothes and take all of your jewelry. They will leave you naked and bare.
40 Nakotindela yo bato ebele mpo ete babamba yo mabanga mpe batobola yo na mipanga na bango.
Then they will bring up a crowd against you and stone you with stones, and they will cut you apart 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.
They will burn your houses and will perform many acts of punishment on you in the sight of many women, for I will put a stop to your prostitution, and you will no longer pay your lovers.
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.
Then I will calm my fury against you; my anger will leave you, for I will be satisfied, and will no longer be angry.
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 you did not call to mind the days of your youth and have made me shake with anger because of all these things, therefore, behold! I myself will bring down on your own head the punishment for what you have done—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration. Have you not added prostitution to all your other detestable practices?
44 Moto nyonso oyo alobaka na masese akoloba lisese oyo na tina na yo: ‘Mwana mwasi azalaka kaka ndenge mama na ye azali.’
Behold! Everyone who speaks proverbs concerning you will say, “As the mother is, 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.
You are the daughter of your mother, who detested her husband and her children, and you are the sister of your sisters who detested their husbands and their children. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father was 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 older sister was Samaria and her daughters were the ones living in the north, while your younger sister was the one living south of you, that 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.
You not only walked in their ways and copied their behavior and practices, but in all your ways you have been worse than they were.
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—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—your sister Sodom and her daughters, have not done as much evil as you and your 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.
Behold! This was the sin of your sister Sodom that she was arrogant in her leisure, careless and unconcerned about anything. She did not strengthen the hands of the poor and needy people.
50 Bakomaki bato ya lofundu makasi mpe bakomaki kosala makambo ya mbindo na miso na Ngai. Yango wana, nalimwisi bango ndenge ozali komona.
She was arrogant and committed disgusting actions before me, so I took them away just as you have 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.
Neither did Samaria commit even half of your sins; instead, you have done many more disgusting things than they did, and you have shown that your sisters were better than you because of all the disgusting things that you do!
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!
Especially you, show your own shame; in this way you have shown that your sisters were better than you, because of the sins you committed in all those disgusting ways. Your sisters now seem better than you. Especially you, show your own shame, for in this way you have shown that your sisters were better than you.
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
For I will restore their fortunes—the fortunes of Sodom and her daughters, and the fortunes of Samaria and her daughters; but your fortunes will be among 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.
On account of these things you will show your shame; you will be humiliated because of everything that you have done, and in this way you will be a comfort to 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.
So your sister Sodom and her daughters will be restored to their former condition, and Samaria and her daughters will be restored to their former estate. Then you and your daughters will be restored to your former condition.
56 Na mokolo ya lolendo na yo, ozalaki kutu kolobela mabe ya Sodome, ndeko na yo,
Sodom your sister was not even mentioned by your mouth in the days when you were proud,
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 your wickedness was revealed. But now you are an object of scorn to the daughters of Edom and to all the daughters of the Philistines around her. People all about despise you.
58 Okomi sik’oyo komema mikumba ya makambo na yo ya mbindo mpe ya misala na yo ya mabe, elobi Yawe.
You will show your shame and your disgusting actions!—this is Yahweh's declaration!
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.
The Lord Yahweh says this: I will deal with you as you deserve, you who have despised your oath by 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.
But I myself will call to mind my covenant with you made in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.
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 you will call to mind your ways and be ashamed when you receive your older sisters and your younger sisters. I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of your covenant.
62 Ngai nakosala boyokani na Ngai elongo na yo; mpe na bongo, okososola solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe,
I myself will establish my covenant with you, and you will know that I am Yahweh.
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. › »
Because of these things, you will call everything to mind and be ashamed, so you will no longer open your mouth to speak because of your shame, when I have forgiven you for all that you have done—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
