Ezekieli 28
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
The word of the LORD came again 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 prince of Tyre, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy heart [is] lifted up, and thou hast said, I [am] a god, I sit [in] the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou [art] a man, and not God, though thou settest thy heart as the heart of God:
3 Boni, okanisi ete ozali na bwanya koleka Daniele? Okanisi ete oyebi mabombami nyonso?
Behold, thou [art] wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:
4 Na bwanya mpe na mayele na yo, okomi na bozwi mpe otondisi wolo mpe palata kati na bibombelo na yo.
With thy wisdom and with thy understanding thou hast gained for thee riches, and hast gained gold and silver into thy treasures:
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 thy great wisdom [and] by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thy heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
6 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ozali kokanisa ete ozali na bwanya lokola Nzambe,
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of 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, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
8 Bakokitisa yo kino na libulu, mpe okokufa kufa ya somo kati na bibale minene.
They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of [them that are] slain in the midst 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.
Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I [am] God? but thou [shalt be] a man, and no god, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.
10 Okokufa kufa ya bato oyo bakatama ngenga te, na maboko ya bato ya bikolo ya bapaya. Ngai nde nalobi, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken [it], saith the Lord GOD.
11 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Moreover 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 lamentation upon the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, 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.
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone [was] thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
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.
Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Etamboli na yo ezalaki ata na pamela moko te wuta mokolo oyo okelama kino tango mabe emonanaki kati na yo.
Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
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 multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
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.
Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
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.
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thy iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
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 they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never [shalt] thou [be] any more.
20 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
Again 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 thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
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 say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in 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.
For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall 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.
And there shall be no more a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor [any] grieving thorn of all [that are] around them, that despised them; and they shall 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.
Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that 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 they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yes, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them around them; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD their God.
