Ezekieli 25

1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 « Mwana na moto, talisa elongi na yo na ngambo ya bato ya Amoni mpe sakola mpo na kotelemela bango.

Son of man, let your face be turned to the children of Ammon, and be a prophet against them:

3 Yebisa bato ya Amoni: ‹ Boyoka liloba na Nkolo Yawe! Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola bosepelaki tango babebisaki bosantu ya Esika na Ngai ya bule, tango mokili ya Isalaele etikalaki lisusu na bato te mpe wana bato ya Yuda bakendeki na bowumbu,

And say to the children of Ammon, Give ear to the word of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said: Because you said, Aha! against my holy place when it was made unclean, and against the land of Israel when it was made waste, and against the people of Judah when they were taken away as prisoners;

4 nakokaba bino na maboko ya bato ya mikili ya este lokola libula, bakotonga milako na bango mpe bakotelemisa bandako na bango ya kapo kati na mokili na bino; bakolia bambuma na bino mpe bakomela miliki na bino.

For this cause I will give you up to the children of the east for their heritage, and they will put their tent-circles in you and make their houses in you; they will take your fruit for their food and your milk for their drink.

5 Nakokomisa engumba ya Raba lopango ya koleisela bashamo, mpe nakokomisa mokili ya bato ya Amoni esika oyo bibwele epemelaka. Boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.

And I will make Rabbah a place for housing camels, and the children of Ammon a resting-place for flocks: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

6 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ozalaki kobeta maboko mpe kotuta makolo na esengo mpo na kotiola mokili ya Isalaele,

For the Lord has said, Because you have made sounds of joy with your hands, stamping your feet, and have been glad, putting shame with all your soul on the land of Israel;

7 nakosembola loboko na Ngai mpo na kotelemela yo mpe nakokaba yo na maboko ya bikolo ya bapaya lokola bomengo ya bitumba; nakolongola yo na molongo ya bikolo, nakosilisa bato na yo mpe nakobebisa yo. Boye, okoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. ›

For this cause my hand has been stretched out against you, and I will give up your goods to be taken by the nations; I will have you cut off from the peoples and will put an end to you among the countries: I will give you up to destruction; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

8 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: ‹ Lokola mokili ya Moabi mpe ya Seiri ezalaki koloba: ‘Tala, libota ya Yuda ekomi kaka lokola bikolo nyonso.’

This is what the Lord has said: Because Moab and Seir are saying, See, the people of Judah are like all the nations;

9 Mpo na yango, nakobebisa bingumba ya Moabi, oyo batonga makasi, na bandelo na yango, kobanda na bingumba oyo ya kitoko: Beti-Yeshimoti, Bala-Meoni, Kiriatayimi;

For this cause, I will let the side of Moab be uncovered, and his towns on every side, the glory of the land, Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon and as far as Kiriathaim.

10 nakokaba Moabi mpe bato ya Amoni na maboko ya Este lokola libula, mpo ete bakanisa lisusu bato ya Amoni te kati na molongo ya bikolo;

To the children of the east I have given her for a heritage, as well as the children of Ammon, so that there may be no memory of her among the nations:

11 nakopesa Moabi etumbu. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. ›

And I will be the judge of Moab; and they will see that I am the Lord.

12 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: ‹ Lokola bato ya Edomi bazongisaki mabe na mabe epai ya libota ya Yuda, mpe lokola bamemaki penza ngambo wana basalaki bongo;

This is what the Lord has said: Because Edom has taken his payment from the people of Judah, and has done great wrong in taking payment from them;

13 mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosembola loboko na Ngai mpo na kotelemela Edomi mpe nakoboma bato mpe banyama na yango; nakobebisa yango, mpe bakokufa na mopanga, kobanda na engumba Temani kino na engumba Dedani.

The Lord has said, My hand will be stretched out against Edom, cutting off from it man and beast: and I will make it waste, from Teman even as far as Dedan they will be put to the sword.

14 Nakozongisela mokili ya Edomi mabe na mabe na nzela ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele: bakozongisela mokili ya Edomi mabe na mabe, kolanda kanda na Ngai mpe kotomboka na Ngai. Na bongo, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazongisaka mabe na mabe, elobi Nkolo Yawe. ›

I will take payment from Edom because of my people Israel; and I will take Edom in hand in my wrath and in my passion: and they will have experience of my reward, says the Lord.

15 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: ‹ Mpo ete bato ya Filisitia bazongisaki mabe na mabe, mpo ete bakokisaki makanisi mabe ya mitema na bango tango balukaki kobebisa mokili ya Yuda, mpo ete bayina bango wuta kala;

This is what the Lord has said: Because the Philistines have taken payment, with the purpose of causing shame and destruction with unending hate;

16 mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakomi pene ya kosembola loboko na Ngai mpo na kotelemela bato ya Filisitia; nakoboma bato ya Kereti mpe nakobebisa batikali oyo bazalaka pembeni ya ebale monene.

The Lord has said, See, my hand will be stretched out against the Philistines, cutting off the Cherethites and sending destruction on the rest of the sea-land.

17 Nakozongisela bango mabe na mabe mpe nakopesa bango etumbu na nzela ya kanda na Ngai. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, tango nakozongisela bango mabe na mabe. › »

And I will take great payment from them with acts of wrath; and they will be certain that I am the Lord when I send my punishment on them.
