Ezekieli 25
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
[Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 « Mwana na moto, talisa elongi na yo na ngambo ya bato ya Amoni mpe sakola mpo na kotelemela bango.
“You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] 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,
Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
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, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
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.
I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
6 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ozalaki kobeta maboko mpe kotuta makolo na esengo mpo na kotiola mokili ya Isalaele,
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] 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 use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
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 [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as 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, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
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 will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
11 nakopesa Moabi etumbu. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. ›
I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
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 [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
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 this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
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. ›
The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
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 [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
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 this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
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. › »
By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
