< Ezekieli 26 >
1 Na mobu ya zomi na moko, na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza, Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Now in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, lokola Tiri alobaki mpo na kotiola Yelusalemi: ‹ Ozwi! Ekuke ya bikolo ebukani! Bikuke na yango efungwami mpo na kotondisa ngai na bomengo! Lokola esili kobebisama, Ngai sik’oyo, nakofuluka! ›
Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, Aha, she who was the doorway of the peoples is broken; she is turned over to them; she who was full is made waste;
3 Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh engumba ya Tiri, natombokeli yo! Nakotindela yo bikolo ebele lokola mbonge ya ebale monene, mpo ete eya kobundisa yo.
For this cause the Lord has said, See, I am against you, O Tyre, and will send up a number of nations against you as the sea sends up its waves.
4 Bakobuka bamir ya Tiri mpe bakokweyisa bandako na yango ya milayi; mpe Ngai, nakolongola putulu na yango nyonso mpe nakotika yango mabanga ya pamba.
And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock
5 Engumba Tiri ekokoma, kati na ebale monene, esika oyo balobi mbisi bakobanda kotanda minyama na bango mpo na kokawusa yango. Ezali Ngai nde nasili koloba, elobi Nkolo Yawe; engumba Tiri ekokoma bomengo ya bitumba ya bikolo,
She will be a place for the stretching out of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have said it, says the Lord: and her goods will be given over to the nations.
6 mpe bakoboma na mopanga bamboka ya mike-mike oyo ezalaka pembeni ya ebale monene. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.
And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
7 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Wuta na nor, nakotindela Tiri Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, mokonzi ya bakonzi: akoya elongo na bampunda mpe bashar, basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda mpe mampinga monene ya basoda;
For this is what the Lord has said: See, I will send up from the north Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre, with horses and war-carriages and with an army and great numbers of people.
8 akobebisa na mopanga bingumba na yo, oyo ezalaka pembeni ya ebale monene, akozingela yo, akotimola mabulu ya kobombamela zingazinga ya bamir na yo mpe akotombola banguba na ye mpo na kobundisa yo.
He will put to the sword your daughters in the open country: he will make strong walls against you and put up an earthwork against you, arming himself for war against you.
9 Akotindela bamir na yo makonga ya basoda na ye, oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda mpe akobuka bandako na yo ya milayi na nzela ya bibundeli na ye ya nguya.
He will put up his engines of war against your walls, and your towers will be broken down by his axes.
10 Bampunda na ye ekozala ebele penza kino putulu na yango ekozipa yo; bamir na yo ekoningana na makelele ya bampunda ya bitumba, ya bapine mpe ya shar, tango akokota na bikuke na yo ndenge bato bakotaka kati na engumba oyo bamir na yango ezali na madusu.
Because of the number of his horses you will be covered with their dust: your walls will be shaking at the noise of the horsemen and of the wheels and of the war-carriages, when he comes through your doorways, as into a town which has been broken open.
11 Makolo ya bampunda na ye ekokota na babalabala na yo nyonso, akoboma bato na yo na mopanga, mpe makonzi oyo esalaka makasi na yo ekokweya na mabele.
Your streets will be stamped down by the feet of his horses: he will put your people to the sword, and will send down the pillars of your strength to the earth.
12 Bakobotola lokola bomengo ya bitumba bozwi mpe biloko na yo ya koteka, bakokweyisa bamir na yo, bakobuka bandako na yo ya kitoko mpe, na sima, bakobwaka nyonso na ebale: mabanga, mabaya mpe putulu na yo.
They will take by force all your wealth and go off with the goods with which you do trade: they will have your walls broken down and all the houses of your desire given up to destruction: they will put your stones and your wood and your dust deep in the water.
13 Nakosukisa makelele ya banzembo na yo, mpe mindule ya lindanda na yo ekotikala koyokana lisusu te.
I will put an end to the noise of your songs, and the sound of your instruments of music will be gone for ever.
14 Nakokomisa yo mabanga ya pamba, mpe okokoma esika oyo balobi mbisi bakobanda kotanda minyama na bango mpo na kokawusa yango; okotikala kotongama lisusu te, pamba te ezali Ngai Yawe nde nalobi, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
I will make you an uncovered rock: you will be a place for the stretching out of nets; there will be no building you up again: for I the Lord have said it, says the Lord.
15 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi na Tiri: Boni, bisanga ekolenga te na lokito ya kokweya na yo, na kolela ya bato na yo, oyo bazokisi bango bapota minene mpe na kufa ya somo kati na yo?
This is what the Lord has said to Tyre: Will not the sea-lands be shaking at the sound of your fall, when the wounded give cries of pain, when men are put to the sword in you?
16 Bakambi nyonso ya bisanga bakotika bakiti na bango ya bokonzi, bakolongola banzambala na bango mpe bilamba na bango batonga bililingi na basinga, bakolata somo lokola elamba mpe bakovanda na mabele; bakokoma kolenga na somo mpe kobanga tango nyonso, mpo na yo.
Then all the rulers of the sea will come down from their high seats, and put away their robes and take off their clothing of needlework: they will put on the clothing of grief, they will take their seats on the earth, shaking with fear every minute and overcome with wonder at you.
17 Bakoyembela yo nzembo ya mawa mpe bakoloba: ‹ Oh engumba oyo ekenda sango, ndenge nini babebisi yo, engumba ya bato ya ebale monene! Yo mpe bato na yo, bozalaki na nguya kati na ebale monene, bozalaki kolengisa na somo bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna.
And they will send up a song of grief for you, and say to you, What destruction has come on you, how are you cut off from the sea, the noted town, which was strong in the sea, she and her people, causing the fear of them to come on all the dry land!
18 Sik’oyo bisanga ekomi kolenga, na mokolo ya kokweya na yo, bisanga ya ebale monene ekomi na somo makasi mpo na suka na yo. ›
Now the sea-lands will be shaking in the day of your fall; and all the ships on the sea will be overcome with fear at your going.
19 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tango nakokomisa yo engumba oyo ezalaka lisusu na bato te lokola bingumba oyo etikala nanu kozala na bato te, tango nakoyeisa epai na yo mayi ya mozindo mpe bambonge na yango ekozindisa yo,
For this is what the Lord has said: I will make you a waste town, like the towns which are unpeopled; when I make the deep come upon you, covering you with great waters.
20 nakozindisa yo kati na libulu ya mozindo esika moko na bato oyo bakitaka kuna, epai ya bato ya kala; nakovandisa yo kati na mokili oyo ezalaka na se ya mabele, lokola kati na libebi ya kala, mpe okozala elongo na bato oyo bakitaka kati na libulu ya mozindo, mpo ete okoma bisika oyo bato bakovanda lisusu te; mpe okozonga te to okozwa lisusu bisika te na mabele ya bato ya bomoi.
Then I will make you go down with those who go down into the underworld, to the people of the past, causing your living-place to be in the deepest parts of the earth, in places long unpeopled, with those who go down into the deep, so that there will be no one living in you; and you will have no glory in the land of the living.
21 Nakokomisa yo eloko ya koyoka somo, mpe okokoma eloko pamba; bakobanda koluka yo kasi bakomona yo lisusu te, elobi Nkolo Yawe. »
I will make you a thing of fear, and you will come to an end: even if you are looked for, you will not be seen again for ever, says the Lord.
