Ezekieli 25
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came unto 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 thy face against the sons 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 say unto the sons of 'Ammon, Hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast said, Aha, concerning my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and concerning the land of Israel, when it was made desolate; and concerning the house of Judah, when they went into exile:
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 give thee up to the children of the east for a possession, and they shall set up their towers in thee, and place in thee their dwellings; they shall indeed eat thy fruit, and they shall surely drink thy 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 change Rabbah into a pasture for camels, and [the land of] the sons of 'Ammon into a resting-place for flocks: and ye 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thou didst clap thy hands, and stamp with thy feet, and rejoice with all thy derision in the soul over 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, behold, will I stretch out my hand over thee, and will give thee up for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries; I will destroy thee, and thou shalt 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Because Moab and Se'ir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is 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;
Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth-ha-yeshimoth, Ba'al-me'on, and Kiryathayim,
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;
Unto the children of the east [coming] against the sons of 'Ammon, and I will give them in possession; in order that the sons of 'Ammon may not be remembered among the nations.
11 nakopesa Moabi etumbu. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. ›
And on Moab will I execute judgments: 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Edomites have acted revengefully against the house of Judah, and have greatly offended, and have taken vengeance on 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.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will also stretch out my hand against Edom, and cut off from it man and beast; and I will make it a ruined land from Theman; and they of Dedan 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 display my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury: and they shall feel my vengeance, saith the Lord Eternal.
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;
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Philistines have acted in revenge, and have taken vengeance with derision in their soul, to destroy out of ancient enmity:
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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the Kerethim, and destroy the remnant of the [dwellers] of 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 on them great vengeances with furious chastisements: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I display my vengeance on them.
