Ezekieli 28
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, loba na mokambi ya Tiri: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na lolendo ya motema na yo, olobaki: ‘Nazali nzambe, navandaka na kiti ya bokonzi ya nzambe na kati-kati ya bibale minene.’ Nzokande, ozali na yo kaka moto, ozali na yo nzambe te atako okanisi ete ozali na bwanya lokola nzambe.
“Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre that this is what the Lord GOD says: Your heart is proud, and you have said, ‘I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea.’ Yet you are a man and not a god, though you have regarded your heart as that of a god.
3 Boni, okanisi ete ozali na bwanya koleka Daniele? Okanisi ete oyebi mabombami nyonso?
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!
4 Na bwanya mpe na mayele na yo, okomi na bozwi mpe otondisi wolo mpe palata kati na bibombelo na yo.
By your wisdom and understanding you have gained your wealth and amassed gold and silver for your treasuries.
5 Lokola ozalaki mayele makasi na mosala ya mombongo, oyeisi bomengo na yo ebele makasi; mpe mpo na bomengo na yo, motema na yo etondi na lolendo.
By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has grown proud because of it.
6 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ozali kokanisa ete ozali na bwanya lokola Nzambe,
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you regard your heart as the heart of a god,
7 nakotindela yo bato ya bikolo ya bapaya, bikolo oyo baleki kanza kati na bikolo, mpo ete babundisa yo: bakobimisela yo mipanga na bango mpo na kosambwisa mayele mpe bwanya na yo, bongo bakosambwisa lokumu na yo.
behold, I will bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations. They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom and will defile your splendor.
8 Bakokitisa yo kino na libulu, mpe okokufa kufa ya somo kati na bibale minene.
They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
9 Okokoka lisusu koloba liboso ya bato oyo bazali koboma yo: ‘Ngai nazali nzambe?’ Ozali na yo kaka moto; ozali nzambe te, kati na maboko ya bato oyo bazali koboma yo.
Will you still say, ‘I am a god,’ in the presence of those who slay you? You will be only a man, not a god, in the hands of those who wound you.
10 Okokufa kufa ya bato oyo bakatama ngenga te, na maboko ya bato ya bikolo ya bapaya. Ngai nde nalobi, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. For I have spoken,
11 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
12 « Mwana na moto, tinda nzembo ya mawa na tina na mokonzi ya Tiri! Loba na ye: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Ozalaki ndakisa mpo na komona nyonso oyo ezali ya kokoka, otondaki na bwanya, mpe ozalaki kitoko koleka.
“Son of man, take up a lament for the king of Tyre and tell him that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 Ozalaki kati na Edeni, elanga ya Nzambe; mabanga ya talo ya lolenge nyonso ezalaki kokomisa yo kitoko: ribi, topaze, diama, emerode, krizolite, onikisi, jasipe, safiri; bambunda na yo ya mike mpe baflite na yo ezalaki ya wolo, babongisaki yango mpo na mokolo oyo bakela yo.
You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and emerald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold, prepared on the day of your creation.
14 Napakolaki yo mafuta mpo ete ozala Sheribe oyo abatelaka, oyo mapapu na ye efungwama; pamba te Ngai nde natiaki yo na ngomba ya bule ya Nzambe; ozalaki wana, ozalaki kotambola na kati-kati ya mabanga oyo ezalaki kongenga lokola moto.
You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for I had ordained you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the fiery stones.
15 Etamboli na yo ezalaki ata na pamela moko te wuta mokolo oyo okelama kino tango mabe emonanaki kati na yo.
From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways— until wickedness was found in you.
16 Lokola omonaki ete mombongo na yo emati makasi, okomaki konyokola bato mpe kosala masumu; mpo na yango, nalongolaki yo na ngomba ya Nzambe mpe nabenganaki yo, sheribe oyo abatelaka, na molongo ya mabanga oyo ezalaki kongenga lokola moto.
By the vastness of your trade, you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and I banished you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.
17 Motema na yo etondaki na lolendo mpo na kitoko na yo; obebisaki bwanya na yo mpo na lokumu na yo. Yango wana, nabwaki yo na mabele mpe nakomisi yo eloko ya liseki na miso ya bakonzi.
Your heart grew proud of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor; so I cast you to the earth; I made you a spectacle before kings.
18 Mpo na ebele ya masumu na yo mpe mombongo na yo, oyo osalaka na bosembo te, obebisi bosantu ya bisika na yo ya bule; mpe Ngai, nabimisi kati na yo moto mpo ete etumba yo; nakomisi yo putulu ya mabele na miso ya bato nyonso oyo bazali kotala yo.
By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.
19 Bato ya bikolo nyonso oyo bayebaki yo bakomi na mawa na tina na yo mpo ete okomi eloko ya koyoka somo: suka na yo ezali mabe, ozali lisusu te, okotikala lisusu kozala te! › »
All the nations who know you are appalled over you. You have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”
20 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
21 « Mwana na moto, talisa elongi na yo na ngambo ya Sidoni mpe sakola na tina na yango!
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
22 Loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh Sidoni, natombokeli yo! Nakomonisa nkembo na Ngai kati na yo; boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, tango nakopesa yango etumbu mpe nakomonisa bosantu na Ngai kati na yango.
And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will be glorified within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her.
23 Nakotindela yango bokono oyo ebomaka, nakotangisa makila na babalabala na yango; mopanga ekolongwa na bangambo nyonso mpo na koboma bato na yango, mpe bato ebele bakokufa. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.
I will send a plague against her and shed blood in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
24 Bato ya bikolo ya mayele mabe, oyo bazali lokola basende mpe banzube, bakozingela lisusu bana ya Isalaele te; boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Nkolo Yawe.
For the people of Israel will no longer face a pricking brier or a painful thorn from all around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
25 Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tango nakosangisa bana ya Isalaele wuta na bikolo epai wapi napanzaki bango, nakomonisa bosantu na Ngai kati na bango na miso ya bikolo wana; boye, bakovanda na mokili na bango moko, mokili oyo napesaki epai ya Jakobi, mosali na Ngai.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they have been scattered, I will show Myself holy among them in the sight of the nations. Then they will dwell in their own land, which I have given to My servant Jacob.
26 Bakovanda kuna na kimia, bakotonga bandako mpe bakosala bilanga ya vino; bakovanda kuna na kimia tango nakopesa etumbu na bikolo nyonso ya bapaya oyo bazingelaki bango mpe bazalaki kotiola bango. Bongo bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bango. › »
And there they will dwell securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will dwell securely when I execute judgments against all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.’”
