< Ezekieli 28 >
Then the word of Yahweh 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, say to the ruler of Tyre, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Your heart is arrogant! You have said, “I am a god! I will sit in the seat of the gods in the heart of the seas!” Even though you are a man and not a god, you make your heart like the heart of a god;
3 Boni, okanisi ete ozali na bwanya koleka Daniele? Okanisi ete oyebi mabombami nyonso?
you think that you are wiser than Daniel, and that no secret amazes you!
4 Na bwanya mpe na mayele na yo, okomi na bozwi mpe otondisi wolo mpe palata kati na bibombelo na yo.
You have made yourself wealthy with wisdom and skill, and obtained gold and silver in 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 great wisdom and by your trading, you have multiplied your wealth, so your heart is arrogant because of your wealth.
6 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ozali kokanisa ete ozali na bwanya lokola Nzambe,
Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have made your heart like 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.
I will therefore bring foreigners against you, terrifying men from other nations. They will bring their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will profane your splendor.
8 Bakokitisa yo kino na libulu, mpe okokufa kufa ya somo kati na bibale minene.
They will send you down to the pit, and you will die the death of those who die 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 truly say, “I am a god” to the face of one who kills you? You are a man and not God, and you will be in the hand of the one who pierces 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 by the hand of foreigners, for I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
The word of Yahweh came again 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, lift up a lament for the king of Tyre and say to him, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: You were the model 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 precious stone covered you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made from gold. It was on the day you were created that they were prepared.
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.
I placed you on the holy mountain of God as the cherub I anointed to guard mankind. You were in the midst of the fiery stones where you walked about.
15 Etamboli na yo ezalaki ata na pamela moko te wuta mokolo oyo okelama kino tango mabe emonanaki kati na yo.
You had integrity in your ways from the day you were created until injustice was found within 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.
Through your great trade you were filled with violence, and so you sinned. So I threw you out of the mountain of God, as a one who was defiled, and I destroyed you, guardian cherub, and drove you 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 was arrogant with your beauty; you ruined your wisdom because of your splendor. I have sent you down to the earth. I have placed you before kings so they may see you.
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.
Because of your many sins and your dishonest trade, you have defiled your holy places. So I have made fire come out from you; it will consume you. I will turn you into ashes on the earth in the sight of all who look at 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 ones who knew you among the peoples will shudder at you; they will be horrified, and you will be no more forever.'”
Then the word of Yahweh 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.
Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Sidon! For I will be glorified in your midst so your people will know that I am Yahweh when I execute justice within you. I will be shown to be holy in you.
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 out a plague in you and blood in your streets, and the slain will fall in your midst. When the sword comes against you from all around, then you will know that I am Yahweh.
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.
Then there will no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the house of Israel from all those around her who despise her people, so they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'
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.
The Lord Yahweh says this, 'When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and when I am set apart among them, so the nations may see, then they will make their homes in the land I will give 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. › »
Then they will live securely within her and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I execute justice on all the ones who now despise them from all around; so they will know that I am Yahweh their God!'”
