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, set your face steadfastly against the children of Ammon, and prophesy 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 you shall say to the children of Ammon, Hear you the word of the Lord; thus says the Lord; Forasmuch as you have rejoiced against my sanctuary, because it was profaned; and against the land of Israel, because it was laid waste; and against the house of Juda, because they went into captivity;

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.

therefore, behold, I [will] deliver you to the children of Kedem for an inheritance, and they shall lodge in you with their stuff, and they shall pitch their tents in you: they shall eat your fruits, and they shall drink your milk.

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 give up the city of Ammon for camels' pastures, and the children of Ammon for a pasture of sheep: and you shall know 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 thus says the Lord; Because you have clapped your hands, and stamped with your foot, and heartily rejoiced against 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. ›

therefore I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a spoil to the nations; and I will utterly destroy you from among the peoples, and I will completely cut you off from out of the countries: and you shall know 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.’

Thus says the Lord; Because Moab has said, Behold, are not the house of Israel and Juda like all the [other] 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;

Therefore, behold, I will weaken the shoulder of Moab from his frontier cities, [even] the choice land, the house of Bethasimuth above the fountain of the city, by the sea-side.

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;

I have given him the children of Kedem in addition to the children of Ammon for an inheritance, that there may be no remembrance of the children of Ammon.

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

And I will execute vengeance on Moab; and they shall know 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;

Thus says the Lord; Because of what the Idumeans have done in taking vengeance on the house of Juda, and [because they] have remembered injuries, and have exacted full recompense;

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.

therefore thus says the Lord; I will also stretch out my hand upon Idumea, and will utterly destroy out of it man and beast; and will make it desolate; and they that are pursued out of Thaeman shall fall by 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. ›

And I will execute my vengeance on Idumea by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall deal in Idumea according to mine anger and according to my wrath, and they shall know my vengeance, 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;

Therefore thus says the Lord, Because the Philistines have wrought revengefully, and raised up vengeance rejoicing from their heart to destroy [the Israelites] to a man;

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.

therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] stretch out my hand upon the Philistines, and will utterly destroy the Cretans, and will cut off the remnant that dwell by the sea-coast.

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 execute great vengeance upon them; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have brought my vengeance upon them.
